The David Knight Show - 12Sep23 MAGA Media Ignores 9/11 Inside Job and the INSIDE WAR

Episode Date: September 12, 2023

It was not just an INSIDE JOB, it was an INSIDE WAR — a war against the Constitution and against Americans by their own government. Both aspects ignored by mainstream media and by Breitbart's 272 page photo spread accompanied by official propaganda that doesn't mention BUILDING 7 even once. We begin with a look at how the rest of MAGA media focuses on Biden's cold-shoulder and praises Trump's meaningless platitudes as he also refused to investigate or expose the lies, even as he knew from day one (CLIP) that the government narrative was impossible. One writer says Sep12, 2001 was "the last great day in America" because Americans united in war. Well, then get ready for some FANTASTIC days ahead if we fall for the war scam again. Why do countries hold the leaders who killed the most people of THEIR country in the highest esteem?Big, big blowback for the "public health emergency" tyranny of Gov Grisham in NM. Open defiance in rallies. Why are even Democrats and gun control politicians turning against her and why isn't Chicago following her lead as 27 were shot this last weekend?JD Vance's "Freedom to Breathe" bill will not pass (because of Dems) but it fails becausethe focus is too narrowthe time too short (would expire the end of 2024)Most importantly, it completely ignores the mechanism used by Feds to get around 10th Amendment to control usDoctor says masks work — not by controlling viruses, but by controlling people.

Well, today we're going to take a look at how some other people have reacted to September the 11th. And we're also going to take a look at what is happening with electric vehicles.

We've got yet another disaster, somebody trying to take a trip with an electric vehicle. This time it was the Department of Energy Secretary, Granholm. It just shows the elitism that is at play here as they are shutting down the grid while putting everything on the grid. We'll take a look at the climate lies. We'll take a look at masks. We have J.D. Vance talking about how he's going to stop the mask mandates. Is he really? I don't think so. We'll begin with September 11th. The coverage, we'll be right back. Well, I was surprised yesterday after the show

to look at how 9-11 was covered by other media, by other conservative media, really. And when I went to Breitbart, featured at the top of the website was 9-11, a visual history. A lot of pictures to commemorate what happened, which is fine. We should not forget the victims, but we should also, and the motto should not be never forget. I think we should understand that the media and the government, including media like Breitbart,

wants us to never investigate, to never question, to never find out who did this. Look, we know how they use this. And as I had people contacting me, you know, what about the planes? Were they real planes even? Were they, you know, Project Blue Beam projections and other things like this? Look, I don't know what happened.

I know what did not happen. What did not happen was the official story of which Breitbart spent 272 pages printed out. If you print it out, 272 pages of pictures and talking about the official story. And guess what they never mentioned? Building 7. Never mentioned it, Breitbart. Why is that? You recount the official story. You've got pictures of the tragedy, the suffering. I don't think it honors the victims to let the murderers go free, the people on the inside who do this, who did this. Look at whether these were projections, whatever.

Was this a directed energy weapon? Was it explosions and so forth? I have my ideas about what happened. I think that what Richard Gage was talking about was, you know, explosions that were pre-placed. I think that is the situation. However, the reality is, is that they lied to us. They lied to us. We know that they did it. We know that what they told us could not happen. We know that they had to have the plans to demolish it. However,

they demolished it. Uh, these buildings just do not collapse, uh, from a fire. They don't collapse from a fire and from planes either. And you know, it was kind of interesting interesting, because Infowars coverage of it was to play a clip from Donald Trump.

Immediately he knew it was not true. So a plane's not going to knock down a building like that. And of course a plane did not hit Building 7. He knew from the very beginning. I said, how could a plane, even a plane, even a 767 or 747 or whatever it might have been, how could it possibly go through the steel? I happen to think that they had not only a plane, but they had bombs that exploded almost simultaneously, because I just can't imagine anything being able to go through that wall. Most buildings are built

with the steel is on the inside around the elevator shaft. This one was built from the outside, which is the strongest structure you can have, and it was almost just like a can of soup. You know, Donald, we were looking at pictures all morning long of that plane coming into building number two, and when you see that approach the far side, and then all of a sudden, within a matter of a millisecond, the explosion pops out the far side, and then all of a sudden, within a matter of a millisecond, the explosion pops out the other side. Right. I just think that it was a plane with more than just fuel. I think, obviously, they were very big planes.

They were going very rapidly because I was also watching where the plane seemed to be not only going fast, it seemed to be coming down into the building. So it was getting the speed from going downhill, so to speak. It just seemed to me that to do that kind of destruction is even more than a big plane, because you're talking about taking out steel, the heaviest caliber steel that was used on a building. I mean, these buildings were rock solid. And, you know, it's just an amazing, it's an amazing thing. This country is different today, and it's going to be different than it ever was for many years to come. It's the season to shop new styles, electronics, and definitely a holiday trip.

And what if each time you made a purchase, you got a little something back? With Rakuten, you can earn cash back on just about anything you buy from over 750 stores.

Yeah, Trump was very impressed with the amount of steel that was used in the trade towers because Trump went through all kinds of machinations to make sure that his buildings were made out of concrete because it was cheaper. But, you know, InfoWars makes him the hero out of all this stuff. Look, Trump was president for four years. Why didn't he get to the bottom of this? Why didn't he release information?

No, instead he sucked up to the CIA, uh, to the woman who lied us into the Iraq war, uh, based on torture. Uh, he sucked up to them. He kept their secrets. He did nothing. He hung out his best friends, his biggest supporters. Rudy Giuliani, part of the cover-up as mayor. Bernie Kerik, part of the cover-up as the New York police chief.

These are the people that he hung out with. And so Infowars praises Trump. Breitbart, in a 272 page article of pictures recounting the official story because you know they never mentioned building seven because building seven is not part of the official story how do you explain that and quite frankly I believe it went down the way that Richard Gage said yesterday. When you look at the thermite particles, and as he explained it, the nanothermite, you know, the small tiny balls that were there and all the rest of this, how the place was absolutely just liquefied in a sense,

pulverized. There wasn't concrete smashed on top of other concrete it was just gone dust and powder and body parts blown out laterally and more than half of the bodies they can't even find enough they were just disintegrated and these explosions uh so um this unthinking regurgitation of the official story is exactly what we saw from breitbart during the pandemic we had people like john nolte pushing the jab and the the readers of breitbart were taking him on saying you know stick to movies that you talk about you don't know anything about what's going on this pandemic with a, with the jabs and the rest of it. But that was pretty much the party line at Breitbart, just like at Fox News.

Do what the government says with this. Believe what the government says with this. Look, when you put out 272 pages of heart-rending stories of tragedy, this is very visceral propaganda when it is not wedded with the truth. And that's exactly what they have done. It's exactly what they did with their portrayal of the pandemic as well. Sean Davis yesterday had a piece that was covered on Zero Hedge. Was 9-11 the day that America started to fall? Well, yes.

We lost the Twin Towers of liberty and the rule of law, didn't we? The Patriot Act, and of course, tied up with that was the Model State Health Emergency Powers Act, the Dark Winter and all the rest of this stuff, the anthrax attack that happened exactly, exactly one week later. So again in this, they go through 2,977 victims killed in the attack. So again, what happened to the bodies? Why were they disintegrated?

If it collapsed on top, they would be found inside of the rubble. They're blown to bits. Literally blown to bits. But he goes on to talk about Sean Davis. Goes on to talk about how 9-11 looks like it might have been the beginning of the end of the American Empire.

I think it was the end of the American Republic, quite frankly. It set in place all the rules for dictatorship. Along with the pandemic and the rest of this stuff, the so-called Patriot Act. They were acting to come after patriots. I said that from the very beginning. That was really immediately clear to me.

As I said, it took me a while before I ever even saw any pictures of this because we didn't have television where we were living. I was relying on verbal reports and it's like, that doesn't seem right. But anyway, and it wasn't right. As Sean Davis said, it spawned the worst and most destructive foreign policy in the country's history. The government response in 9-11 birthed the constitutional abomination that is the modern warrantless surveillance state to come after patriots. The Patriot Act enabled the government to weaponize its vast resources against its own

people. An inside job for an inside war. That's what you need to understand. Not just an inside job. It's an inside war. It's when the intelligence community and the massive American empire turned on its own citizens. That marks the day. That marks the day.

Bush's failed foreign policy led directly to Obama's presidency and indirectly to Biden's, both of which were responsible for diminishing the U.S. at home and abroad militarily. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Trump? Trump? Where's Trump in this? With Trump, we got America back. Everything was great, right?

No, Trump dropped the other shoe on us, the shoe that they practiced for 20 years, lockdown and vaccinate, the medical martial law, the public health emergency executive order. So we've now seen put to such novel use, most recently by the governor of New Mexico. We'll give you an update as to what happened with that. People are pushing back against that for sure. He goes on to say, after two failed forever wars, it wouldn't have happened without 9-11.

Why were they forever wars? Trump didn't end them either, did he? That's fine. Look, it's okay for Republicans now, for conservatives, to hate the Bushes. But you can't hold Trump responsible for anything that happened in his four years of presidency. Why is that? Why is that? And around here, I might as well put stickers for Democrats on my car if I say anything about Trump.

Because I see all these, I mean, there are stores in Sevierville, Pigeon Forge, selling Trump merchandise. And I see signs and t-shirts as I'm walking around in the stores. Do you miss me yet? It's like, no, no, I don't miss you. I don't miss you. I don't miss you. I don't miss George Bush. I don't miss Obama. And, uh, I don't miss Joe Biden either. Uh, uh, he's mentally checked out as we saw in Vietnam, but I don't miss him either, uh, because he's always been a tyrant. We'll talk about what he did. Civil asset for asset forfeiture uh and we haven't talked about

this this week we look at what happened in alaska it is civil asset forfeiture on the grandest scale we have seen yet stealing legally purchased land from people just taking it from them and and of course it's not a surprise that that the Biden administration would do this because Biden was a big part of creating civil asset forfeiture in the name of the drug war for a very long time. He's nothing but a corrupt thief at heart. He despises the Bill of Rights. He despises natural rights. The very concept was anathema to him and he was criticized

by democrats for focusing more on that with clarence thomas confirmation hearing then with the he said she said stuff about anita hill and of course now we understand where the biden family is on sexual issues so why would b think, even if that were true, why would he think that's any big deal? But he did think it was a big deal, the idea that people have rights. He hates that. One of the most authoritarian people

that we've ever had in the American government. And he just did the biggest civil asset forfeiture we've ever seen. We'll talk about that coming up. After two failed forever wars, it wouldn't have happened without 9-11, says Sean Davis. Our government is now desperately trying to foment potentially nuclear forever war against Russia. Meanwhile, all the massive surveillance powers claimed by the U.S. after 9-11 are being ruthlessly deployed against American political enemies of the regime via the most insidious censorship industrial complex the world has ever seen.

You see, all of this was laid in the aftermath of 9-11. They're just waiting for the technology to come around so they can roll this out. And, of course, to boil the frogs, us, in a gradual way. Then there's the crippling legacy of debt enabled by America's response to 9-11. And of course, he doesn't talk about Trump's pandemic debt. Dwarfed anything that anybody else had. But again, do not criticize President Trump.

This is what the conservative media has become. Not content to spend trillions on poorly thought out invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan, our leaders spent as thoughtlessly at home, creating insane amounts of new entitlements while doing nothing to put the country on a sound financial footing. Under the Trump administration, the entitlements were for the wealthiest of people. You understand? Biggest transfer of wealth we've ever seen in America.

The ruling party is criminalizing its opposition and attempting to throw its top political opponent and his supporters into prison, all in the guise of democracy. We generally remember 9-11 as the day that the towers came down, but Sean leaves us pondering the most poignant question. He says, I wonder if historians will look back on it

as the day that America started to fall. Well, yeah, there was another shoe to drop 20 years later. And the person who dropped it on us was Trump. Look, they're all in on this stuff. It's a club and you ain't in it. Stop pretending that you're a member in good standing at Mar-a-Lago. 20-year lockdown practice. And it was Trump who dropped the shoe on us.

But of course, you know, he knew all this was happening. And of course he did know. That video featured to make Trump look like a savior by Infowars. No, it just makes him more culpable. He's not stupid in spite of the fact that he ran a casino into the ground. Losing money. He's not that stupid as he appears to be. When you look at his casino bankruptcies, when you look at his social media stuff,

he's not as stupid as he appears to be. Just criminal and vicious. 90s nostalgia. As one strategist at Rabobank wrote, and Zero Hedge picked up, the 90s are back in vogue. Seems like everywhere I go now, I see people wearing high-waisted mom jeans, grunge band t-shirts, or channeling Princess Diana's sneakers and tube socks look. Well, I'm not so much about all the fashion. I don't know anything about that. I just know that

the 90s was just before America changed. I guess we could say that was a high point. I really see the high point more as America in the middle century. I'm a mid-century guy myself. That's when I was born. We're 22 years after 9-11. I remember I was born 10 years after world war ii and um i never really thought about how close uh it was to that um i mean tv and film was filled with stuff about world war ii and in 1973 i went with a group to europe and when i was in Germany, it kind of dawned on me for the first time. It's like, these people I see, they're about 50 years old. You know, they were the ones who were here, you know, fighting.

My father and my uncles. It's like, wow. I hadn't thought about that before. You know, it's not ancient history like the Civil War or something like that. But it was immediate. And even when we went to the UK, and then again with Karen in the 80s, they still did not have the underground base where Churchill had run things know, run things there at Whitehall. That was all still closed.

And they did not open that up until we went back with our family in 2001. We were able to go through that. They were so disgusted with having to live their lives underground like that. As soon as the war ended, they just, like, locked the door, go away. Don't even come back and take a look at it. Decades later, people came back and opened it up and said, look, I mean, papers are still on the desk. I mean, everybody just bolted. We're out of here. Not another second in this place. And so they, everything was pretty much just as they left it. So then they turned it into a museum. But it needed to take a while for that,

for people to kind of put things into perspective. But he says in terms of 90s nostalgia, he said, whatever the motive, it's clear the world today isn't at all like it was in the 1990s. The unipolar moment has expired. You know, there was just the Soviet Union had collapsed inward from doing all the stuff we're doing. Essentially, planned

and controlled economy, war machine, the rest of this stuff. Tyranny. But, you know, the unipolar moment has expired. Living standards are increasingly stagnant. The West now seems unsure of both its economic formula and its cultural inheritance.

We can't even figure out what gender we are. Give me a break. I mean, this is the insanity of America now. And then finally, this op-ed piece from the Epoch Times. September 12th, 2001. The last great day in America. He said, you know, there's no underestimating the tragedy of September 11th.

He said the next day, it was like we were living in a different country. The outpouring of patriotism was off the charts, with more flags than you'd see on the 4th of July. While people wore red, white, and blue ribbons, emotions were still running high, but there was a sense of unity that has been missing for years. A sense that the right has now rediscovered under Trump. You see, this is the war effect.

This is one of the important reasons why you have this civil war developing around Trump right now. It's the war effect. Even when our government does everything to get us involved in a war, and you go back and look at what Woodrow Wilson did, you can look at what FDR did. Americans didn't want any part of that war. But once you got into that war, once they pushed us into that war, well, then everybody is in it together. And it really doesn't matter. It has really surprised me when we went to China to see the worship of Mao it's like do you realize

that he probably murdered more of his own people than any other leader in history more than Hitler more than Stalin I mean he had more people to murder so he got busy they had a bigger population than Germany bigger population than Russia chairman Mao killed more people than anybody else of his own people. Starved them to death for his own power games. Called it a great leap forward, as we now have a great leap forward being pushed on us with this green agenda. And yet, he is still worshipped. Big posters everywhere. I've often looked at Abraham Lincoln and how he's worshipped in America. It was his political ambition that caused

that many deaths in America, that if you were to scale it up based on the population, based on the number of people that died in the South alone, you'd be looking at like 25 million people today that died. And that's the official stories, which probably doesn't, not accurate. You know, their official story was, you know, same number of people died on both sides, and they don't count civilian casualties either. So, you know, you look at this and you say well is there any way that the civil war could have been avoided why of course

you had um the uk stopped the slave trade uh because of wilberforce they stopped the ownership of slaves again because of wilberforce. Just before he died, he got that through. A Christian who made that his life's work. And they paid less to compensate the property owners so there'd be a peaceful release of the slaves in the Bahamas and so forth. They paid less to free the slaves, to emancipate the slaves, than Lincoln spent on bullets. Don't tell me the Civil War was about freeing the slaves.

It was a fourth turning. And we should be very concerned about this fourth turning that we are already in the middle of. It's going to be finished in seven years. What is America going to look like in seven years? If we don't have an awareness of where these people want to take us and what they want to do, you haven't seen anything in terms of the transformation of America.

Transformation into slavery, poverty, forced austerity. This left-right step of these MacGuffins, whether it is the pandemics or the climate panics and so forth, if we don't stop letting them panic us, we know, I know, you know, you listen to me, you know where they want to take us and have us there in seven years. It includes a massive economic depression.

It includes a massive global war and perhaps largely a civil war as well. And we have to not give that to them. We can start with shutting down the civil war over Trump. There are ways to stop the corrupt people in Washington without having a civil war over Trump. But that's what we hear over and over again, again, from the Trump MAGA media. And, you know, as I pointed out, you got people like Huckabee, Mike Huckabee.

Well, if we, if Trump loses this time, this will be the last election we have a ballot. The rest of them will be with bullets. Seriously? A Christian? A pastor? Pushing this? be the last election we have a ballot the rest of them will be with bullets seriously a christian a pastor pushing this boy that is reckless talk that is foolish talk you want a civil war you really think so you see this at the beginning of every war both sides, this is going to be a cakewalk. We're going to take those other guys out. No problem whatsoever. Funny, it never works out that way, Huckabee. Never does.

And he's not the only one. But anyway, this guy says, the next day is like we're living in a different country. We were all united. And that's what happens when your country takes you to war. It's what happens even when your country goes to war against you. An inside job and an inside war. He says, this answer reminds me of a conversation I had with my late mother years ago. I'd taken her to see the movie Pearl Harbor,

and I noted her face lit up during a scene with a big band and swing dancing, and after the movie, she said something I didn't expect. She said, those are the best times in this country. To me, that didn't make sense. The best times are during World War II, I said. And she nodded. She said, everyone pulled together. We were all fighting the same enemy.

We lost a lot of good people, but we had to remain a free country. If you needed help, someone would help. People were closer than they are today. Well, get ready for some good, quote unquote, good times coming up. You know, the old Chinese saying, may you live in interesting times, the curse. Well, get ready for some good times because we're going to have the good times roll. They're going to take us into war, poverty, slavery, constant surveillance. If we don't get together and fight this thing, we need to organize now to make sure we're

not going to be a part of this thing. Start making your plans to opt out. Start making your plans to have other people around you that are going to opt out because they have planned a future for you that you do not want for you or your kids. And this isn't something that's just going to happen to future generations. I have seen this over and over again. As I've said before, it was about eight years ago that I went to an auto show and I asked everybody there, pretty clear what was happening with electric vehicles and the rest of the stuff. They're going to ban cars, including electric

vehicles. And so I said to the people, how long is it going to be? You know, all these people, car fans, hundreds and hundreds of car fans there. And it didn't matter how old the people were. They could be there with 18 year old with their car. They just fixed up or they could be 80 years old. I said, do you think they're going to ban cars yes is it going to happen in your lifetime no no nobody thought that it's like hezekiah yeah hezekiah um king of israel and he uh he has some close brushes with death with being conquered the rest of the stuff and then he has some close brushes with death, with being conquered, and the rest of the stuff. And then he has, you know, he's feeling really good.

Things are great. And the Babylonians come. And he's like, yeah, look at this. That's a big military machine. Look at all the gold I've got over here. This is great. He's showing off what he's got. And then Isaiah comes to him and says,

do you realize what you have done? He said, they're going to come and they're going to take everything. It won't happen to you, but it'll happen to your children. And Hezekiah said, oh good. And that's where we are today. We don't think it's going to happen to us.

It's going to happen to our children. It's going to happen to future generations and we don't care about our children. We don't care about future generations because we have become lovers of self. We need to have God turn our hearts to our children. And that's true not just of men and fathers, but of women and mothers

as well. And unless that happens, that is a sign of revival. That is a sign that you're going to look for the future. And if that doesn't happen, if we're just in it for what we can get,

God will judge this country. So it just, whether they're going to go to war with us or go to war with somebody else or blame this, go to war with us and blame somebody else, that's what's going to happen if we don't wise up. And you better have some discernment

about this MAGA press that will always give you a slanted narrative to excuse everything that Trump did. Why? To make him into a hero. That we can then have a... It's the season to shop

Un message du gouvernement du Canada. Civil war around. I'll be right back. The common man. They created common core to dumb down our children. They created common past to track and control us. Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing. And the communist future. They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary, but each of us

has worth and dignity created in the image of God. That is what we have in common. That is what they want to take away. Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation. They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us. It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide. Please share the information and links you'll find at thedavidknightshow.com. Thank you for listening. Thank you for sharing. If you can't support us financially, please keep us in your prayers. TheDavidKnightShow.com. If we want to know what we have to do, the first thing is we don't comply.

First thing is we stand up for our rights. And it was good to see this happening in New Mexico. A we will not comply rally right there in Albuquerque where the New Mexico governor, Michelle Lujan Grisham, I guess that's how you pronounce her middle name, suspended by executive order of the second amendment and suspended, uh, the, uh, permits of people who, uh, you know, had gone through all the hoops to, uh, turn their right into a privilege. You know, I had got permit for concealed carry and all the rest of this stuff. They said, well, I don't care. I'm going to take it away. I'm going to declare a public health emergency.

And as I said yesterday, who set that precedent? Well, it was precedent Trump. If I declare a public health emergency, then everything goes away and I can do whatever I want to you. Nobody had died when he did that. Nobody had died. You couldn't even make a case for it in Italy. And certainly when you look at what was happening in China, they don't want to talk about how China gamed us with a behavioral psychology and propaganda. Oh no, it's the Wu Han lab.

I'm so disappointed in RFK Jr. to now start talking about the Wu Han lab. Now what that does is that pushes the China narrative. And I think these people who are doing that, whether you're talking about Trump or whether you're talking about RFK Jr or any any of these people, start talking about the Wuhan lab. First of all, they want to exonerate big pharmaceutical companies because that's what they're doing. And then they also want to suck up not just to big pharma, but the military industrial

complex that wants war with China. So maybe if you don't want them to assassinate you, maybe you start signaling to them that you're going to give them once war with China. So maybe if you don't want them to assassinate you, maybe you start signaling to them that you're going to give them their war with China. They leave you alone. I don't know. Maybe that's what's going on with them because it makes absolutely no rational sense.

We all know that the lockdown and the pandemic was a pandemic of behavioral psychology. That was the only science involved. And so, anyway, getting back to New Mexico, the public health emergency. David Hogg got it right. He said the Constitution doesn't go away when you declare a public health emergency.

Well, David Hogg. And that's the problem that the governor of New Mexico has everybody is allied against her you know from the sheriff to the to the mayor to the police chief even to the local district attorney they're all against her and the I think it was the the sheriff was yeah it was a sheriff because it's an election the sheriff has the support of the bloomberg gun control organization every town so even a gun control sheriff said i'm not going to enforce that that's unconstitutional what she's doing they're all saying that's unconstitutional. The sheriff, the police chief, the mayor, the DA, they all say it's unconstitutional, not going to do it.

And these are Democrats. Many of them support gun control and are supported by gun control organizations, and they're still not going to do it. David Hogg is opposing her. Why? Why are these Democrats and gun control people like David Hogg, like this Soros sheriff, why are they opposing this? Because this is going to blow back big time on her. As I said yesterday, you know, Jonathan Turley is looking at this and says, what's her, what's her end game? I think this is going to blow back.

He said, because you look at these restrictive things that have been done in New York and in DC and other places like that, and we get Supreme Court cases that come out of this as they try to squeeze it down. Kind of like the Star Wars analogy where Princess Leia says to Darth Vader, you know, you're trying to squeeze us. We're going to something about it coming through your hand like water or something like that. You know, you can't you can't squeeze the water. It's going to try to squeeze this. We're going to something about it coming through your hand like a water or something like that. You know, you can't you can't squeeze the water. It's going to come through. Well, there was Ford Fisher as put up on news to share. That's the number two.

He showed some of the rallies that happened here. Take a look at this one. And as he pans the camera around, there's a guy speaking that you can hear. If you're listening to the podcast, if you're watching it, um, you know, you'll see that he is, uh, going around and showing all the people with guns on their hips or slung over their shoulder or various other ways. That's the key thing about this clip, really. That's what I want to tell you about it in case you're listening to the audio version

of this. Everybody's got guns. Look at that. I don't think so. She thinks she has the right to take away my freedom and protect my community. I don't think so. This will not stand. We will not comply. Yeah. Again, as he's going around there showing everybody with guns. We've joked about this in my family.

It's like the only time we've ever been to a rally where there was no violence, where the police didn't start coming after people, or the other side start coming after people. The only time that ever happened was when there was a big rally in the Alamo because they had been harassing, the sheriff down there had been harassing people who had started open carrying. Um, and this was before open carry was legal in Texas. And so they'd walk with a rifle slung over their shoulder, which is perfectly legal under

the law, but the police wanted to intimidate that the purpose of the people was to try to, uh, get, um, uh, the public accustomed to seeing people carrying guns. You don't have to run for cover you know uh so don't be afraid of that and uh so there was a massive rally that was there we covered it and uh the police were walking around and up about four stories above us they had set up and we took pictures of them taking pictures of us and so they were up there recording everything and taking detailed pictures of everybody and um but they didn't bother anybody until almost everybody had gone and then they started harassing a few people that

were remaining uh we've seen this over and over again uh you know it is is, as Robert Heinlein said, an armed society is a polite society. An armed protest is a polite protest. It really is. Nobody wants to set it off. That goes back to Colonel Arthur Fremantle, who wrote a book about the Civil War, a very interesting book. It came from Britain to, it was English, he a book about the Civil War. Very interesting book. It came from Britain to his English. He wanted to observe the Civil War. So he comes to America and he wrote a book about it. It's called Three Months in the Southern States.

And he landed in Texas and goes up through Texas and he just walks in and meets Sam Houston and a bunch of other people. And he goes up and he joins up with these armies right in the middle of the Civil War. And he's able to, wearing his British uniform and everything, he's able to go into the camp and meet with the generals and talk to everybody about it.

It's a really amazing book. And so he went all over the place and did that. His comment was, he said, i've never seen a society where everybody is armed like they are in the south and i've never seen a more polite society robert heinlein and uh the science fiction writer just kind of condensed that said an armed society is a polite society but that's really it's based in truth it's based in fact and we's based in fact. And we know that. And we know that an armed protest is a polite protest, especially if you've got a lot of people that are there angry and carrying guns. You don't want to make them any angrier. And that's the whole point of the Second Amendment,

you see. The Second Amendment, people should understand the Second Amendment is a deterrence. It's a deterrence to violence and force.

Un peu plus d'argent peut vraiment faire une différence. Vous pourriez avoir droit à des prestations

et à des crédits, comme l'Allocation canadienne pour les travailleurs, l'Allocation canadienne pour enfants, le Crédit d'impôt pour personnes handicapées et le Crédit pour la TPS-TVH. And so, you know, the fact that citizens are armed, we don't have to use the arms. The arms are a deterrent to a lot of things that the government would already be doing to us if we didn't have the arms. On Rumble, KWD 68 says, home defense, hunting, et cetera, are all fine, but the Second Amendment is there to protect us from tyranny. Yeah, I know.

I've got a T-shirt. Says George Washington didn't use the First Amendment. amendment is there to protect us from tyranny yeah i know i've got a t-shirt uh says uh george washington didn't use the first amendment uh he shot the british but uh you know the bottom line is that they did have the freedom to speak they did have uh committees of correspondence they did know what was going on and that's why they're attacking the first amendment. Now they don't want you to know what's going on. They want to shut down social media. They set it up as committees of correspondence.

People began corresponding with each other through social media. So that had to be controlled and shut down. It was a trap essentially. But anyway, so that was the rally there. And then I want to play this way. This is the second clip. Uh, but anyway, uh, so that was, uh, the rally there. And then there, I want to play this way. This is a second clip.

Again, this is from Ford Fisher who has news, the number two news to share. And this guy begins and, and the only picks up just the, you know, the tail end of his comments about an emergency order. But he,

he's pointing out that this public health emergency order that goes back to nine 11, the week after, you know, the anthrax attack. And then two months after that, the model emergency orders, you know,

he says, this is what was being used, um, you know, against us. And it's, what's going, what she's trying to use against us.

This guy really gets it. Listen, I said, how could a plane, even a plane. Sorry, that's the wrong one. Emergency powers was passed in 9-11, 2002, 2001. Bipartisan. It's been used by the executive today.

It's been used to be emergency powers before. You have to pay attention to the policy. You have to stay out, connected to your rights every day like this. You have to maintain this every day. I'm a community organizer by trade. If you don't do this tomorrow, this won't matter. It will matter for all of us, but they

won't pay attention if you're not here tomorrow. Another thing I'll tell you, if you think the governor willfully violated your rights like I did, everyone here can sue her. She does not have qualified immunity in this stadium. Yup.

There you go. Now what, um, got lost in there. I hit the wrong button, but he began by saying the model emergency thing was passed bipartisan support. Uh, 2001, 2002, they introduced it in 2001. It may have a drug on into 2002 before they passed it, sent it out to the States and said, here's what we want you to enact in your state law, because you know, we've got this 10th amendment that's in the way, uh, we'll flood you with money.

That's what Trump did to get you to do it, but put this in your law so that you can do what Trump and Fauci did to us in 2020. And so he said, that's exactly what she's using now, the same precedent that was set up there. Now, they walked around with firearms openly. And again, that is legal there. They need to go out and do this every day, he said. The police did not enforce the order. The order would be a

five thousand dollar fine for everybody that was there uh and that did not happen with anybody so they're they're calling their bluff on that one apparent anti-gun protester was yelled at but then invited by the speaker to say his piece on the stage good let's have um have freedom of speech. I mean, that really should be our approach. I think it's much better than yelling at somebody who is there as a counterpart. Give them a moment to get up on stage. Most of the time, they don't have anything to say. They don't know what to say.

They typically are just there to shut down your speech. They can't defend their position. And so the best thing you can do is to give them enough rope to hang themselves. That's what free speech is about, you know, this clash of ideas. So he got up on stage. He had a mask on. So they started yelling at him for having a mask on. Then he took the mask off, and they applauded him for taking the mask off. And then he said, well, I'm very concerned about gun violence in schools.

And the crowd responded. And this is just like what used to happen at Speaker's Corner in London, in Hyde Park. Every Sunday morning, people would go. They would take a soapbox or some kind of a box and they'd stand on it. They would talk typically about religion or politics. We used to enjoy going to that when we were there in the 80s.

We went several times and then took our kids. We went in 2001. And at that point in time, it was very different from what it had been 20 years earlier. They had a lot of Muslims who would gather around the Christians and shout and get very agitated and angry, right up to the point of violence. And at that point in time, in 2001,

the police would be talking to each other on their walkie-talkies on their lapel and you see them start to converge on this thing and so i said to the family let's go somewhere else and uh but now now uh 20 years later so from 20 for you know 40 years ago, people could go and have these discussions. 20 years ago, the police were about to have this. Now you have a situation where they arrest the Christian. That's happened multiple times. We don't like your speech. So they don't tolerate that anymore.

But they did the right thing there you know they said to the guy uh well the answer to protecting kids in school is to have well-trained teachers carrying it maybe even veterans who could protect the school and that type of thing but um you know that's what needs to happen the real issue is you need to shut the schools down because a lot of this social decay is coming from the schools you know it is a carcinogenic institution frankly anyway the armed citizens were rolled into albuquerque and pushed back the The local media reached out to state police to see if any of the armed protesters were cited. They said no, no citations were given. They said we're not here to cause any issues. We're here to express our amendment rights and we will go from there, they said. And again, the direct quote from the district

attorney Sam Bregman, a Democrat, and again, it's the mayor, the district attorney, the police chief, and even the sheriff, who is supported by a gun control organization, say we're not going to do it. The district attorney says as an officer of the court, I cannot and will not enforce something that is clearly unconstitutional. This office will continue to focus on criminals of any age that use guns in the commission of a crime,

but having crimes or having guns is not a crime. Um, he didn't say that. I did say that. Um, and, Dudley Brown, who,

uh, with a national association for gun rights, he's the founder and president of the group. He's still with them. I know Dudley. Good guy. They were the first ones to file a lawsuit and followed up by the gun owners of America.

Also good guys. Dudley Brown said the governor, Grisham, needs to be held accountable for stripping the God-given rights of millions away with the stroke of a pen. Well, she didn't do that, but, um, she pretends that she did that. And so she needs to be held accountable for that, but at least, uh, nullified. The question is when we look at things like Chicago, you know, on a regular basis,

you see a conservative media talking about how many people were shot in Chicago over the weekend. And of course, over this last weekend, we had 27 people shot in Chicago. Um, and that is courtesy of Breitbart with that. And so the question is, at least 27 people were shot five of them fatally in Chicago. So why isn't the governor of Illinois doing this type of thing? Why isn't the mayor doing this type of thing? Well, because they've already done this type of thing and people are still getting shot.

They've already taken away all the gun rights and yet the gangs are still shooting people, each other and other people, innocent people. You see, the gun control doesn't work. That's why you're not seeing this type of thing being done in Chicago. It's being done in New Mexico because, A, she thinks she can get away with it. But, B, they don't have the kind of gun control legislation. And the shooting is far greater in places where they do, where only the criminals have guns. Imagine that. Who would have expected that would be the case? What a surprise.

And the same mayor, when he appeared before the Economic Club of Chicago and they asked him some questions about the failing schools in Chicago, he had a very interesting response to it. You see, he doesn't't think and this guy is a former teacher and a longtime employee of the chicago teachers union so he taught for a little while and then he got in the union and got into politics and then became mayor and so they said what grade would you give the current system and why? Well, he said, I personally don't give a lot of attention to grades.

You don't want any feedback. He wants this to be an open system with no feedback, no metrics, no measurement. Yeah. Well, this is the way these people always work. They don't want any data about their vaccines. They don't want any data about their pandemics. They don't want any data about their gun control. He said, I don't give a lot of attention to grades. My responsibility is not merely to just grade the system, but to fund it. I don't want to see the risk. I don't want to see

what comes out of this thing. I just want to pour money into it because I was head of the teacher's union, uh, or not head, but he's part of it. He says, that's how I am ultimately going to grade whether our public school system is working or not, based on the investments we make. So the amount of money that he spends determines whether it's working or not. How incredibly stupid that is. The more money, the better the results, right?

Well, from his perspective, as somebody coming from the teacher's union, that's the only thing he cares about is what they get out of it. And, of course, we have seen that the most lavishly funded school districts in the country, whether you're talking about Chicago, New York, Washington, D.C., and on and on, they're the ones who have the lowest literacy rates and the lowest numeracy rates by any objective standard. And of course, that's why these people hate objective standards. By any objective standards, they are amazing failures. They fail at everything except the propagation of these institutions. And that's

why I say over and over again, you have to distinguish between schools and education. The school is an institution. It exists and feeds on itself. It exists on its own. The self-perpetuating bureaucracy, a blob that just keeps feeding on everything around it, growing like a cancer. But education can be measured in spite of what he says. His crime rate can be measured. He said, I don't personally give all attention to grades. We have to establish a rubric that speaks to the needs as well as the unique dynamics that exist. Unfortunately, we have had this standardization of our schools that has sucked out our imagination. So there you go.

Your imagination. Just imagine that you're educated. Just identify as a scholar and an educated person and you're done. You know, this is like their graduation ceremonies are like the end of the Wizard of Oz where the wizard comes out and he hands out the medals. E pluribus unum. And you're done. Then he gets into his balloon and he flies off to Washington for a higher level job. That's the way this all works. Two other highlights in his appearance. He said, we've got to get past division in the city and this is the way he put it he said there are forces that did not accept the results of the civil war what and there are real forces

that want a rematch don't give in to them don't give it to them and so this uh article in zero hedge they say really the first thing that comes to his mind are people who want to refight a war to preserve slavery? He's the fourth black mayor in a city that sent the first black man to the White House? And he thinks we're in danger of a race war? That's really what he's talking about, not a civil war. And then when it came to addressing the root causes of crime, he said, well, President Johnson, 50-plus years ago, said, we've got to get to the root causes. He said he contrasted that with racist comments at the time by Governor George Wallace.

Then he said, had we actually addressed the causes of violence 50 years ago, we would already be a better, stronger, safer Chicago. This generation cannot get wrong what the previous generation did. This commenter says, well, wait a minute. America rejected George Wallace and elected Lyndon Johnson, who then proceeded to spend $14 trillion on Johnson's Great Society programs, exactly the kind of programs that Mayor Johnson now wants.

The odds of being struck by lightning are less than one in one million. But when you hear this sound, you're probably heading indoors in a hurry.

Thank you. You're listening to the david knight show we got a comment on odyssey from fifa fofum

he says i used to love going to speaker's corner in the early 90s pre-internet it was always educational and entertaining absolutely was i mean i remember, I've got pictures of a guy who was an anarchist, you know, listening to him talk. Yeah, I'd listen to people that I disagreed with. It was always a lot of fun. And it's such a shame to see how despised free speech is, how that was. People understood that it was a cornerstone of our liberties. I mean, you had Gilbert and Sullivan

who did one of their light operas called Trial by Jury. Why? Because that is such a cornerstone. We don't pay any attention to trial by jury, to free speech, the rest of these things. As a matter of fact, our corrupt criminal governments have done everything they can to shut down trial by jury, to shut down free speech. It's held in contempt.

You've now got people being arrested for standing on corners, silently praying in the vicinity of an abortion clinic. That is the contempt for these fundamental rights that we used to celebrate in Western civilization. We've lost our civilization. It is dead and dying. The American, just Western civilization in general, is a cut flower just waiting to die.

And we've gotten to the point now where the petals have shriveled up and they're dropping off at a very rapid rate of this cut flower we call Western civilization. On Rockfan, Audi MRR, good to see you there. He says, government has been salivating for a race for the longest time. Not going to happen, a race war, I think he means. That's exactly right.

And I think our best weapon against that is to go back and look at Christian values. And the values that are even in Genesis, throughout the Old Testament, New Testament, all of it. God made everybody of one race. Everybody is descended from Adam and, more recently, from Noah, if you believe the Bible. And then in the New Testament, Paul says, as he's addressing people there, he says, God has made of one blood all nations. The Bible looks at distinctions that are political, nations, linguistic tongues, and cultural tribes. It speaks of nations, tongues, and tribes.

Those are the things that separate us. We should not be separated over skin color and things like that. And even those separations of nation, tongue, and tribe, those go away if we understand who we are in Christ. I love what Ken Ham says. And Ken Ham wrote a book about that. I think the title of the book, I think, was One Blood. Ken Ham with Answers in Genesis.

He said there really are two races, and it depends on which way they're running. Some people are running away from God as fast as they can, and some people are running toward God. That's the two different races that are out there. But when we were talking about, you know, getting things right and pushing back and do not comply in the rest of this, let's talk about the mask mandates. You know, even as you see Trump reinventing himself as now being against all this stuff

that he championed and how he championed Faucici and all of his didn't matter how many times Fauci reversed himself and openly lied to us. And the 2020 campaign, and I played this where I won't play it again today. Uh, but I played it many times for you last couple of weeks. Uh, the 2020 campaign video that Trump put together. All cuts from Fauci. Talking about how Trump had done exactly what he said to do.

See, I did exactly what he said to do, right? Avoiding responsibility, but also showing us that he made Fauci the president. That lying little elf. Anyway, so now you got last week, a new senator, J.D. Vance, said, I've got a bill here that's going to ban any federal mask mandates. I mentioned it just briefly last week,

but need to take a little bit closer look at this. He calls it the Freedom to Breathe Act. It prohibit Biden and any federal agencies from implementing face mask requirements requiring submission from the public for public transportation or for students in school and other things like that. Now, I don't see anything in there about the military, for example, other things that Biden can directly order. He can't really directly order students in schools to wear masks. They did claim that they had control over all public transportation, which I think needed to be tested. I don't believe that they do. But when you talk about mass transit, this is one of the reasons why they want to get rid of cars. It's a control point. You know, the airplanes, trains, planes, trains, and automobiles, well, they can't get the automobiles yet, but they will.

But by putting that kind of stuff in, that is a key thing. However, what is interesting about this bill that J.D. Vance put out is that it would only apply to the end of 2024. What? What? What nonsense, right? First of all, to focus narrowly on masks is to miss the point. So it's too narrowly focused just to focus on masks. And it's too narrowly focused to ignore the model legislation that they pushed out to everybody at the end of 2001 to get them to put the legal framework in. This needs to be attacked at that level. Instead, you got J.D. Vance out there virtue signaling. That's all this is. He knows it's not going to pass. He just wants to virtue signal.

See, I tried to do something to stop masks. No, you didn't. You need to take on the overarching plan, which is put in place supposedly in response to the anthrax attack a week after 9-11. Take that on. Take that on. Do the opposite of the Model State Health Emergency Powers Act. The opposite of that. Because if we don't stop this idea that any health emergency

or any emergency at all can suspend the Constitution, if we don't stop that, we're done. Instead, what he does is he says, well, we'll just talk about masks, and we'll only talk about masks until the end of 2024. Total BS. This bill is a joke. There is no recognition of the mechanism of this dictate. Because if he wants to gut the federal government's involvement, first of all, they know, they need to like I said put out the exact opposite

Of the model state health emergency powers act they need to put out the model act for preservation of the Constitution And say here's what you need to undo what we told you before undo that so we can preserve the Constitution The second thing he needs to do and this is why there's such blindness about Trump's participation in this because they want to, uh, skip over the fact that he funded it. How does the government in all these different areas, how does it get boys into the girl's restroom? Well, it does it by bribery and, you know, giving them money

or taking the money away. And this is the way that president Fauci and his stooge, Trump, that's the way they ran this thing in 2020, by offering money or taking it away. The same way that they mandated the jabs for people in hospitals. Oh, you like all that extra money that Trump was giving you for the last 20% bonus if it was a COVID patient? You know, $13,000 bonus if you identified them as COVID, if you got them on a ventilator, $39,000. You like all that money?

Well, we're not only going to take that away from you. We're also going to take away all your Medicare and Medicaid money. faire faire vos impôts gratuitement. Voyez si vous êtes admissible.

Visit shingrix.ca. All of it. If you don't vaccinate your employees. That's how this stuff works. And so J.D. Vance is skipping over the mechanism, the power mechanism that they have over people, which is, you know, that phony fiat currency that the Federal Reserve pumps up all the time. Right. They can just print it out of thin air and then use it to bribe people or to blackmail them by taking it away.

I mean, it's fiat currency, but it has real purchasing power. And it has real power over governments. And so he ignores the mechanism of the dictatorship, money. He ignores the state legislation that was put out there? And then just to show you how absurdly ridiculous J.D. Vance's, what does he call it, breathe easy or something? Freedom to breathe act. You call it the speakeasy bill. That's what I'd call it. That speakeasy bill, a prohibition of masking.

We'll prohibit prohibition. How about that? Um, no, instead of all that, then he makes it just until the end of 2024. Uh, why would he do that? Well, because he was supported by Trump. And, and so he's going to tell everybody, look, it's just till the end of 2024. So you got to get Trump elected because if Trump is elected, he won't do that to you. Again, like he did in 2020.

Yeah. How many times America's freedom to breathe act is a necessary intervention against mask mandate. Madness, uh, says the says the uh daily skeptic no it's actually a it's a mask head fake it's what this thing truly is and um uh you know when we uh look at the masks you know this back and forth the lies from fauci how he's spinning well okay okay you prove that it doesn't work for the herd. But I'm telling you that it works for the individuals.

Oh, yeah? You got any studies? No. Of course, and that's logically absurd. If it worked for the individuals, then you would have the groups would see it as well. But Clayton Barker, or Baker, rather, MD, says, here's the dirty secret about how masks really do work. They don't have any medical benefit.

They don't protect you. They can't make you sick in their own right because they're filthy. And you can see it on people's faces. It's as plain as the acne on your face, what's going on with the masks and what it's doing to you personally. But he said, the dirty secret is the masks don't work by controlling the virus. The masks work by controlling the people, says this medical doctor, Clayton Baker.

He says, if we're talking about stopping the spread of the virus, masks simply don't work. By the way, this was published by the Brownstone organization. Yeah. Again, the pandemic was psychological.

The only science was behavioral science. He says, they don't work at controlling the virus. They work by controlling people. By this late date, it has been established beyond any honest scientific doubt that masking is ineffective at stopping the contraction and the spread of COVID-19. This is true both at the microscopic level and at the population level. Look, I gave you proof back in 2020. I gave you proof three and a half years ago.

But anyway, that's fine. I'm glad that this is now, that people have slowly arrived at a consensus about this. The entire public health enterprise in the West has strong political and authoritarian impulse built into it from its very conception, he says. If you look at the preeminent 19th century German physician, opponent of Semmelweis and Darwin, the founder of so-called social medicine, famously wrote that, quote, medicine is a social science and politics is nothing but medicine at a larger scale oh well maybe that's why benjamin rush said that if we don't have something in the constitution and the bill of rights to protect our medical consent

uh you're going to wind up with what he described that we have today. You're going to have these gills, these cartels that are going to be controlling everything. The attitude that public health should possess the power to dictate national, local, political policy for the, quote, public good because they are, quote, experts unilaterally that they've determined themselves to be. That has increased dramatically, and of course we see that even with Governor Grisham in New Mexico. During the COVID era, the authoritarianism of public health morphed into totalitarian mode during the COVID era. I think it was Trump and Biden.

Let's be more specific about it. With the unprecedented lockdowns, the school closures, the travel restrictions, the vaccine mandates that we all endured. But the most visible and most easily enforceable symbol of this power grab were the masks. I look really good in a mask. I've got a black one that I walk around with. It's got a presidential seal on the cheek, he said. Masks, even the comically useless ones made out of old handkerchiefs or the filthy week-old paper surgical ones seen on countless chins,

signaled compliance and submission for the very real public health purpose of unquestioning obedience. Masks worked very well. Indeed. I was barred from going into the bank by a security guard, an elderly guy. He had the mask down underneath his nose. And I said, you clearly don't believe this as plain as the mask on your face. I said, I've got to get some cash out of there.

Oh, you can't go in. It's like, all right. Okay. Uh, let got to get some cash out of there. Oh, you can't go in. It's like, all right, okay. Let me get all my cash out of there. I went to another branch and got in there. Said, I want to close this account. Anyway, masks are effective at instilling fear in people, fearful people, more readily submit to authority, particularly when that authority promises a solution

to the cause of their fear. Masks are effective as virtue signals of compliance. readily submit to authority, particularly when that authority promises a solution to the cause of their fear. Masks are effective as virtue signals of compliance. By the way, I didn't mention, I think, that, you know, as soon as I said that, he got this real sheepish look on his face. He pulled his mask up. Did anybody see that? Bolsters the submissive person's ego. Masks also impose a very strong peer pressure effect,

which again pushes people towards following the crowd. The Milgram experiment, you've got the authority figures, you've got Fauci and Trump telling you to put your mask on. You've got the people around you, the Ash experiment. And you can always get two-thirds of the people will do what the authorities tell them, including killing somebody else. And two-thirds of the people will give you the wrong answer if everybody else in the crowd is giving you the wrong answer,

even if they know it's the wrong answer. Masks are effective at humiliating people. They're uncomfortable. They're ugly. They're dirty. They're unnatural. They truly are face diapers. In a word, masks are degrading. That's the whole point, isn't it? What's the point of submission? Unless you can get the person into a degrading submission.

That's even better. The kind of people who like this kind of power over people, they love that kind of degrading submission over other people. It's kind of this sadomasochism that we saw. If the ways of the old Eastern Bloc taught us anything at all, it is that the systematic degradation of individuals, especially for patently stupid reasons, is highly effective at promoting totalitarian ends.

I mean, just look at what bounded, as I mentioned before, the Great Leap Forward. You do this because I say so. And you do it even if you're going to starve to death. Masks are also extremely effective in exposing dissidents. Who dares to stand up against the masks? Who dares to stand up against the state, therefore? There's one right over there. Shame on them.

Shun them. Shun them. Arrest them. I used to joke all the time about going around Austin with full facial nudity. Oh, the shame of it. I mean, there was more shame in not wearing a mask than there is shame in these Democrat cities for middle-aged men riding around on bicycles, but naked, totally naked because it's pride month. So you can proudly ride around naked if it's pride month, but you can't have a naked face. That's how masks really work.

Charlie Brown. They really do. We need lionists. And that's how masks really work charlie brown they really do we need lionists and that's how they work charlie brown give us you take that security blanket and that's how it really works and that's why they're trying to bring them back uh baker md is a physician of internal medicine this is the kind of guy you want to be your doctor. Most of them aren't like that. Most of them are not like that.

We're going to take a quick break. And when we come back, we're going to talk a little bit about Ukraine, the depleted uranium and our depleted... Each dollar counts to pay bills or raise a family.

from the Government of Canada. The odds of being struck by lightning are less than one in one million. But when you hear this sound, you're probably

heading indoors in a hurry. But did you know that the odds of getting shingles are one in three if you've had chickenpox? Why leave it up to chance?

Visit shingrix.ca. ...defeated morality as we come back. So stay with us. Thank you. L'esprit de l'esprit Thank you. making sense common again you're listening to The David Knight Show. Well, we have seen over and over again, one metric after the other,

that just shows how shameless our politicians of both parties are in their disregard for Americans. Americans last, as many people pointed out. Colonel McGregor retired. Pence said, when asked by Tucker Carlson, what about Americans? Look at what is happening. It's not my concern, Tucker. Americans are not his concern,

and they're not the concern of Biden either, of course. As this article from Breitbart points out, a U.S.-funded war in Ukraine costs more in one day than Biden is going to send to Maui. Well, that's one metric. We've had other ones that point out, well, you know, he's going to give $700 per person in Maui. These people have lost everything. But if he were to take that money that he's sending to Ukraine and divide that up with the people at Maui, they'd get a half a million dollars apiece, $500,000 instead of $700,000.

Not $700,000, not $7,000, $700,000. So there's many different ways that we can look at this. $100 million a day is one way to look at it. What the Biden administration is sending to the Ukrainians so that they can get themselves killed and kill more Russians.

And then, of course, the U.S. is sending radioactive weapons to Ukraine. Same kind of radioactive weapons that left thousands of iraqi babies deformed and this is from antiwar.com but you know it has also had big health effects on a lot of the tank people as well i remember years ago a guy who had an officer who had been involved with depleted uranium firing, got a great deal talking about how the cases of cancer had gone up really high

with the crew, but they don't want to pay attention to that. And you know they know that kind of stuff, just like the military knew about all of these adverse effects from the vaccine and just shut down that database. They keep very close contact with what's happening to the military personnel because they want to know if they're under biological or chemical attack. Unless it's a biological or chemical attack from the Pentagon. In that case, then they hide that.

But they've got the data. They've got the data. They just don't care. To comprehend the magnitude of this decision, one must understand the horrifying legacy of depleted uranium and armed conflict. Its extreme density makes it a sought-after component for military projectiles known for its ability to penetrate thick armor. However, when these munitions strike,

they produce a fine dust of radioactive particles that can linger in the environment for millions of years due to DU's extensive half-life. As a matter of fact, I think it was the first Gulf War, I think. And my friend who was in tanks said that they had, and they had a longer range than the Iraqi tanks,

which were old Russian tanks to start with. I mean, probably even compared to their contemporaries, the Russian tanks were not that good, but these were very old Russian tanks. And so they had a tremendous advantage in terms of range. They said they scoped out and they saw this Russian tank that was trying to hide behind a sand dune. And they could see an antenna, something that was sticking up, and they spotted that and they knew where it was.

So they drew the sights on it and they shot the depleted uranium through the sand dune and destroyed the tank. That's why this is a sought-after weapon. However, on the other side of this, in 2003, the U.S. military unloaded over 2,000 tons of this radioactive waste, subjecting the Iraqi population to its long-term effects. The aftermath is palpable even today. Cancer rates in the country have soared.

Birth defects are tragically commonplace. Iraqi hospitals, such as those in Basra, report a 60% soared birth defects are tragically commonplace iraqi hospitals such as those in basra report a 60 rise in birth defects post 2003. these figures coupled with comparisons to the aftermath of atomic bombings in japan paint a heart-wrenching scenario and again for their own soldiers as well. A mere six years ago, this is an article, by the way, from the Free Thought Project. The Free Thought Project reported in 2017 the U.S. conceded its use of DU in combat

against Islamic State militants. This confession was a stark contradiction to previous coalition assurances, explicitly stating that depleted uranium would not be employed in the Syrian theater. And again, why were we invading Syria? As Woody Harrelson did a joke, I don't have it in the deck here to play it for you, but he says, I am absolutely opposed to a superpower invading another country. And he goes on to describe what Putin has done.

And he goes, you know, in Vietnam and this one, Iraq. He starts to say all these different places like Vietnam, Iraq, Syria, and on and on. He goes, oh, I mean Russia, of course, and Ukraine. And everybody got its point. We've been doing that everywhere. Everywhere. The land is already marred by the remnants of the ongoing conflict, unexploded ordnance, mines, the continual threat of cluster bombs.

Now let's spread depleted uranium dust all over the place. In Ukraine, which used to be the bread basket of the Soviet Union, and a major supplier of food. So, again, our globalist governments don't care about

food. They're going to have access to it. They have unlimited amounts of money. They have their underground bunkers. They don't care about nuclear war or famine or any of this stuff. They have unlimited amounts of money. They have their underground bunkers. They don't care about nuclear war or famine or any of this stuff. They think that they're protected. We'll see about that. Why do these nations rage against God and his anointed, right?

God laughs at this stuff. The CDC has stated that there is no evidence that depleted uranium rounds cause cancer. So there you go. Just like the jab, it's completely safe. Now that CDC has weighed in on this, we can all rest assured. And the interesting take on this from Information Liberation is it contrasts what the CDC says about depleted uranium versus how upset they are about secondhand smoke. Look, I don't like secondhand smoke myself, personally. I've got a touch of asthma that inherited from my family, but it really does get to me, secondhand smoke, especially if somebody's smoking a cigar. Well, that's tough. But if I had a choice, going into a room with secondhand smoke or depleted uranium dust,

I think I know which way I would go. Pentagon spokesperson said, I would push back on the assertion from Russian officials here. The CDC has stated that there is no evidence that depleted uranium dust caused cancer. There is no report here that the people in the room did not break into spontaneous laughter, but I guess they didn't, maybe. So he went on to say, if Russia's got a problem with that, they can withdraw their tanks from Ukraine. Yeah, okay.

CDC stated that there is no evidence that depleted uranium rounds cause cancer. The World Health Organization has also said this. So there you go. And the IAEA has stated unequivocally that there is no proven link between DU exposure and increases in cancer or significant health or environmental impacts.

Visit shingrix.ca. The IAEA, the WHO, and the CDC, right? These case clubs. Contrast the D.C. regime's lax views on D.U. versus secondhand smoke and information liberation. The CDC claims that there is no safe level of exposure to secondhand smoke and information liberation. CDC claims that there is no safe level of exposure to secondhand smoke and that it has killed two and a half million Americans since 1964. They also claim that secondhand smoke causes sudden infant death syndrome.

Not the vaccines, of course, but secondhand smoke. Look, these are the same people, the EPA and the rest of these people, who had Lisa Jackson when she same people, the EPA and the rest of these people who, you know, had Lisa Jackson when she was head of the EPA testifying that, um, uh, find particular matter from, uh, fireplaces and from a diesel and all this stuff that was killing more people than cancer and heart attacks combined. She emphasized it. She said, I'm not talking about people getting sick. I'm talking about people dying.

At the same time, she was saying that, in testimony at the Capitol, in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, the EPA was exposing people to 72 times limit that the EPA said was dangerous because they were trying to get them totally banned, which is what they're doing now. They just don't need to have any justification.

They can do whatever they wish. It's interesting, you know, when we look at Elon Musk and this Ukrainian official saying Musk committed evil by not providing Starlink internet coverage for them to direct their drones. He says, by not allowing Ukrainian drones to destroy part of the Russian fleet via Starlink interference, Elon Musk allowed this fleet to fire caliber missiles at Ukrainian cities. As a result, civilians and children are being killed.

Except the Ukrainians were firing missiles at cities for eight years before Russia even invaded. After the U.S.-led coup, the Obama-led coup, Victoria, Newland, and the rest of them, Alexandria Chalupa going there in 2016 to try to push this false Russia-gate stuff against Trump. She was allied with the DNC. Why do some people so desperately want to defend war criminals

and their desire to commit murder? Well, I don't know. That's what he's accusing Moscow. But I think you could say that about the Democrats, couldn't you? And, of course, Republicans. And do they now realize that they're committing evil and encouraging evil? Well, let me just explain to this guy that Elon Musk has a great deal of leverage with the military-industrial complex.

He has launched about 80% of the satellites that have gone up, or at least 80% of the satellites, um, you know, that have gone up or at least 80% of the payload, I think was the metric 80% was launched by Elon Musk, 10% by China and 10% by everybody else combined. The military needs his satellites up there. And even though I don't like his Starlink thing, I mean, you're going to have a situation before too much longer. He's putting up like 20 some odd thousand satellites as a plan. He's going to continue this massive launch. And you're going to look up and you're going to see,

instead of seeing stars in the sky, you're going to see Elon Musk's satellites up there. Not something I'm looking forward to. But one of the reasons that this is happening, if you stop and think about it, as they move the war to space, how do you keep your net up? How do you keep that Starlink up?

Well, just by sheer quantity. If you've got 20,000 of these things, the Chinese are going to have a hard time taking them all out aren't they and if they take out a lot of them and the system degrades then guess what happens uh we all lose our internet but not the pentagon not the military they'll still have their internet that's the idea i think behind this uh you know is a kind of redundancy for war. To clarify on the Starlink issue, the Ukrainians thought coverage, this is Elon Musk, thought coverage was enabled all the way to Crimea,

but it was not. They just thought it was. He said they asked Musk to enable it for their drone subattack on the Russian fleet. He did not enable it because he thought probably correctly that it would cause a major war. And that's not Musk speaking. That is Walter Isaacson speaking on behalf of Musk. He said they thought they had the coverage, and he turned it off.

But he said they never had it. And they didn't have it because he didn't want to escalate the war. What Musk did say was he said, much appreciated, Walter. The onus is meaningfully different if I refuse to act upon a request from Ukraine versus made a deliberate change to Starlink to thwart Ukraine. At no point did I or anyone at SpaceX promise coverage over Crimea. Moreover, our terms of service clearly prohibit Starlink for offensive military action, as we are a civilian system. So they were again asking for something that was expressly prohibited by our

terms of service. SpaceX is building StarShield, see, for the U.S. government, which is similar to, but much smaller than Starlink, as it will not have to handle millions of users. The system will be owned and controlled by the U.S. government.

But this is really Elon Musk's leverage over the U.S. government. And, of course, he benefits from it tremendously. That's what made him the world's richest man is by doing what the governments want. Whether you're talking about the European government, the American government, or the Chinese government, it doesn't matter. He's going to do what they want. Renee sent this to me, a listener.

The Pentagon wants to affirm your gender transition, but not if you're avoiding the draft. I mentioned this briefly. You know, it is kind of interesting that Ukraine is also out there saying we want extradition of Ukrainian men to fight. They're not saying that about the Ukrainian women for some reason. And of course, in the U.S. military, you know, we get all this stuff. They want to have as many trainees as possible, as many women as possible, and on and on. It's the same type of thing that I've seen all of my life. The one thing I look at with all this trainees and sports stuff, I find it amusing because

I never believed the anything I can do, you can do, or anything you can do, I can do better type of thing that we saw that was set up for us by Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs, if you remember that, the battle of the sexes. And I talked about this before, before the trannies proved this point conclusively that, um, prior to that much publicized event, you'd had another event where you'd had a championship, you know,

currently participating female tennis player gets soundly defeated by male. And so then they set up this thing with Bobby Riggs, who was, you know, never like a global champion. He wasn't like Djokovic or anything like that. And he was in his 40s. And Billie Jean King, who was still in her prime as a tennis star, challenged him.

And, you know, narrowly beat him in that thing. And his friends said he threw that match. He threw that match. And it was highly publicized. And then after that, you had another match with jimmy connor and a woman tennis player and he beat her pretty easily and yet nobody talked about anything except that staged match with billy jane king and then you have this situation where everybody now understands, everybody understands, that there is no contest there between men who have, even if they've undergone operations, the hormones have made

them stronger. And so the military is saying the same thing as well. When it comes to military draft, which is presently inactive and called the Selective Service Program, the military absolutely insists that men are men. They must register. You don't get any pass for that. And yet, you know, they say that you can stay behind and you can stay at home if you want to be, if you're a man who wants to become a woman. And they're encouraging people to come in. they will pay for all of their mutilating

surgery. Look, it's not just kids who are harmed by this. Anybody is harmed by this kind of stuff. But the listener Renee says, well, everybody should declare themselves to definitely not be men. Even the poor souls currently on active service in the military who are expected to throw their lives away in a nonsensical war against Russia should suddenly declare themselves to be trans LGBT women and unable to fight. If the entire U S military declared themselves to suddenly be LGBT gays, that would be the end of that. And he almost think that that's what the Pentagon wants.

They certainly act like it, everybody to be that way. So give them what they want. Just stay away from the surgery and the hormones. As far as the Pentagon is concerned, every U.S. serviceman is cannon fodder. Every U.S. serviceman should have resigned when the vaccine mandate was first muted, but now they should identify as LGBT women, as gays, leave the military, top brass without a fighting force, and they can go fight the war themselves.

That's about right. But again, it's not just the Pentagon. The Pentagon wants you to affirm your gender transition, but not if you're trying to avoid the draft. And so they're even putting out recruitment videos. Emma, the Navy promoted their non-binary dragon, drag queen. So, yeah, it's amazing the hypocrisy, isn't it? We're going to take a quick break, and when we come back,

we're going to take a look at electric vehicles and the the amazing trip drive safe and obey the rules of the road vehicle owners who receive a red light or speed camera violation can pay or dispute online at toronto.ca slash aps. Happiness. We all know what it feels like, but sometimes it doesn't come easy. I'm Garvey Bailey, the host of Happy Enough, a new podcast from the Globe and Mail about our pursuit of happiness.

From our relationship with technology to whether money can really buy you happiness, we'll hear from both real people and experts to demystify this thing we're all searching for

and hopefully find ways to be happy enough. You can find Happy Enough wherever you listen to podcasts. Of Jennifer Granholm, the Department of Energy Secretary, and her electric vehicle. We'll be right back with her adventures. Stay with us. Thank you. The David Knight Show. you're listening to the david knight show well on rock fan thank you a rem thank you very much for the tip i really appreciate that he says thank you for covering such details as depleted uranium the amount of contamination that never ends, despite being pointed out. Monsanto, go back to Agent Orange and the Vietnam War with that, which is collecting the world's seeds for privatization of world food sources

as contaminating and poisoning the commons and privatizing and buying up land with their monopoly money to sicken and enslave masses and commodity commoditize everything that is exactly right when you look at what monsanto is doing it is the model that we see being done with the corporate model a rental model and they drove farmers to suicide in india because they bought the monsanto seeds and they said, you know, look, you can use the glyphosate, the Roundup, and it'll kill everything except this crop that we just sold you. Oh, great. Let's do that.

So they poison their land and the next year when they have to replant it, they've got to buy the copyrighted seeds from Monsanto again. And this is why you had rural areas around the country popping up and banning glyphosate. In one particular case, in one rural county, they

had some farmers who were doing it and this stuff will drift onto other farmers' fields and poison them as well. And so even though Monsanto spent, and of course Monsanto has now been bought by Bayer, pharmaceutical company, but they spent $8 million to defeat that measure. But the people there, the farmers, were informed.

They understood what it was. So there wasn't any amount of propaganda on TV that Monsanto was going to be able to put out there that was going to stop that. That's why the truth is so important. That's why they are so adamant to control social media. Because they operate by deception, propaganda, and advertising. And so their response to that, because they were losing these fights over and over again, they went to Washington and they said, well, we can't exist with this kind of piecemeal legislation, different rules in different places. We need to have one standard set of rules,

which is to say, you're not going to stop us. And they were able to get that. It was, we nicknamed it the dark act. I forget what the official name was, but basically it was Washington saying, well, you can't do this. You can't ban this type of thing. The solutions are local and we're always going to run into that type of situation. And so people need to stand up and say, well, you've made your pronouncement. Let's see you enforce it. It's going to come down to that. It's going to come down to push versus shove. And we have to do that before they starve us out. But it always goes back to the rental model. So let's take a look at the EVs. This I thought was kind of interesting. This is a cross-country trip uh done by energy secretary jennifer granholm

what a idiot uh gadfly she is and so you know she's going to show everybody how wonderful evs are so she's got her staff out there trying to arrange things because we've already had reports about you know a guy who said i'm so fed up with my ev i couldn't get the thing charged on a short family vacation so i just had it towed to a car place and i rented a car from a real car from them and completed the trip and then you had the ford ceo who said the same thing he said hey this just isn't working for a trip at all and so then jennifer granholm is going to show everybody how well it works so she has her staff go ahead of her and they decided that they would camp out on one of these spots so that she would be able to um be able to charge up and there was a family there that was so irate that they could not get to the charger.

So they call the police. They said, we got a baby in the car and you're not letting us get the energy that we need to get home with this thing. It's so many different levels. But going back to March of this year at South by Southwest, uh, here is what she had to say. Um, let's see. Actually, I don't have it. Maybe I didn't give that to Jennifer Granholm at South by Southwest at that. She was saying, I think that's my fault. I don't think I put that in the folder. Um, she said that at South by Southwest, you know, we are going to, yeah, we need to do what China has done. China has been marvelous. Have you noticed I have all these authoritarian dictators like Jennifer Granholm, Justin Timberlake?

You know, what country do you love other than Canada? You know, and Justin Trudeau. And, you know, other than Canada, what country do you love so much? Well, I like China because they can protect the environment so much. And she basically said the same thing. She said, we're hopeful that we can all learn

from what China is doing to combat climate change. Well, you know, quite frankly, I'm hopeful as well because China is ignoring climate change and that's what we need to do. We need to ignore climate change. This siren song of fear and panic. We need to ignore that and we need to do exactly what China is doing, which is build as many power plants as we can and forget about the emissions completely.

That's what China is doing. You want to tell me that you're concerned about global warming and you're not concerned about China and India, who have been given a free pass with the Paris Climate Accord. They've been given a free pass to do whatever they want. There she is bowing and scraping at the South by Southwest Festival there. Yeah, holding court. I'm going to tell everybody about how they have to,

uh, fear all of this stuff. What a clown she is. Anyway. Um, uh, sorry. I didn't mean to get into the ad hominem attacks.

I just, in her particular case, I just can't help myself. Some of these people, um, you know, the policy is bad enough. We don't need to go into their personalities and their personal defects.

We all have them. If it walks like a clown and honks like a clown. Yeah, exactly. Uh, so yeah, so let's do what, and this is what a lot of environmentalists have said about the Paris climate accord. It was like, this is about global warming. The true believers say, so how can we give China and India, the two biggest polluters on the planet, how can we give them a pass on all this stuff?

They can build as many coal plants without scrubbers, without any cleaning thing. They can do as many of those as they want. And there's no restriction on the number. There's no restriction on the emissions. How do we get that? Well, I think that's exactly what we do. I am hopeful, just like jennifer granholm that we can all learn from what china is doing to combat climate change which is nothing let's all follow china and uh build as many coal power plants as we can just like them

so anyway her staff gets into a argument with this family. It was reported by NPR. You know, they follow her around to do this thing. A harp says on rock fan, Sydney airport car parks had an EV catch fire today, destroyed at least five cars. Well, there you go. Yeah. Well,

they're burning down the entire, um, you know, infrastructure as well as everything else. And this particular case, she was taking a four day trip from North Carolina to Tennessee. It doesn't take four days. Unless you're stopping to charge every few miles

and it takes you hours and hours to charge. I don't know, maybe that's, she has some other stops, I don't say. But I guess, you know, if you haven't carefully mapped this out and if your team gets into fights with people who are trying to charge their car and you're parked there to block them from that, I guess it could turn into a four-day trip. So she had a trip that was, quote, painstakingly mapped out ahead of time to allow for charging.

However, it still became a problem, even though NPR said she had painstakingly mapped this out. Between stops, Granholm's entourage at times had to grapple with the limitations of the present, said NPR. After her staff realized that there weren't enough charging spots for electric vehicles at a stop near Augusta, Georgia. Well, maybe that's why it took her four days. She doesn't know how to get from North Carolina to Tennessee because she's going through Georgia. Okay. Drive safe and obey the rules of the road.

Can we unlock the power of nature to tackle microplastics? At the University of British Columbia, we believe we can. Dr. Orlando Rohasin team at the Bioproducts Institute are finding cleaner ways to clean microplastics from our drinking water using filters made of natural renewable materials. At UBC, our researchers are answering today's most pressing questions. To learn how we're moving the world forward, visit ubc.ca forward happens here. A staffer tried parking a non-electric vehicle at one of the chargers to reserve a spot. And that did not go down well with a regular gas powered car blocking the only free spot for a

charger. In fact, the family that was boxed out on a sweltering day with a baby in their vehicle was so upset. They decided to get the authorities involved and call the police. Well, you know, maybe they had to get a real car if they got a baby. Or at least take an Uber, you know, just get a rental car or something. You got a baby emergency, baby on board. In the end, the team arranged for the family to also charge its car. You know, just, I guess they came up with an arrangement that when Her Highness came in, they had to move and give her a priority. We'll let you charge until the important person gets here. And this VIP is then going to cause you to give away,

because that's what this is all about. It's kind of elitism. Granholm told NPR, ultimately, we make it super easy for people to travel long distances. There you go. See, every problem with their policy becomes an excuse for them to grow their programs and to grow their bureaucracies. You see, that's how it always works in Washington. They never fail.

They always, whenever they fail, they grow. And so, anyway, the thing is, she says, we want to make it super easy for people to take these trips. Jennifer, it already is super easy for those of us who have gasoline cars. It is super easy. At one point in time, the American government decided that it would build infrastructure to make these trips super easy. Again, going back to mid-century America, we used to be able to build things, and where the government was trying to focus somewhat on America, they built the interstate system. You think they'd build the interstate system today? No, they're tearing it down. Boudiguet says it's racist and he's tearing down overpasses.

So yeah, it already is easy. You're the one who is trying to force it into something that is hard. You're trying to force it into something that is expensive, something that is unreliable, something that is time-consuming, and something that has a big fire risk, as Harps pointed out in Australia. Yet another fire. So anyway, yeah, this is her centrally planned trip, which worked out the way central planning typically works out for these dictators. I got a kick out of this article. This is from England and came out over the weekend. Guy said, I've owned my EV for a year, but I despise it.

And he's got a really nice electric Porsche. And I imagine it is a lot of fun to drive. I've got a friend who's got a Tesla and he let me drive it. And it truly is a lot of fun to drive. I've got a friend who's got a Tesla and he let me drive it. And it truly is a lot of fun to drive. Because of the charging issues, because of the fire issues, because of the expense,

I would not want to own one. But it is the electric vehicles, they have so much torque and power in them. And then when you take your foot off of the gas they start with a regenerative braking so it's very much like you are like on a slot car you know where you just you know you're played with your little electric slot cars as a kid you give it some electric gas and it just goes flying off and then you pull back and it slows down real quickly that's the feeling that it has really is interesting because you don't get this momentum. I mean, it's exactly the opposite of the way I drive my Miata. That's a stick shift. You know, use the momentum, uh, because it can handle the curves and because

it doesn't have a lot of, uh, power in it. Uh, so once you get it up to speed, you want to keep it there and use, you know, um, don't, uh, break on the curve. Just take them as they are. That's part of the fun of it anyway. Uh, so this guy out of the UK says he despises his Porsche EV and the drivers who own them hate each other. Yeah. They call the police on each other. That's we just saw person is in my charging spot. He's had his Porsche for an entire year, but he took a trip, a plane trip, and he came back. And his all-electric Porsche, which had been parked in the airport's long stay lot, he said, well, it didn't have enough charge. Remember how Eric Peters has pointed out that there's a constant leak off you know, off of your electric car because it's, you know, got electrical things that are running.

And even if it's just a little bit of electricity that is running, it's going to draw it down over a period of time. So he's there with a long stay. And so he said, today I'm going to show you why I hate my EV because I've landed right back here from New York, right here in London, and now I'm faced with a bit of a dilemma because the car is not fully charged. He said he charged the car before driving to the airport, but now it doesn't have enough power left to get him home. Because of this, he's now going to have to stop and charge it on the way back, the last thing he said a traveler wants to do after a long transatlantic flight. That really, really winds me up, he said, because it to do after a long transatlantic flight that really really winds

me up he said because it's going to add what another hour onto my journey maybe more because i've got to go and charge it up at a service station somewhere which means that i have to get a coffee and whatever and i've got to wait alongside for it when all I really want to do is get home he said I mean a diesel car would have probably gotten me here and back without even filling up anyway he says as I said before I love my electric car I love the way it drives it's fantastic you can charge and if you can charge it at home then you know it's cheaper at the moment he said he knows it's gonna And then, of course, they will begin to suck it dry for the grid because they're shutting down the power to the grid as well.

And they'll tell you, you can't charge it today because we have a grid crisis. As a matter of fact, the grid crisis is so bad, we're going to have to pull the juice out of your car. So hook it up. He says, if I've got a diesel or petrol, I'd be on the motorway and on my home on my way home right now but now i'm waiting for my car to charge he said that while he was charging

his car a man walked up and asked if he could put his ev on the charge maybe he's got a baby on board i don't know because he had to urgently pick up his children from school yes he kind of like that you know i need to get the babies on board. So let me get in here first. I said, well, just go for it. But he said, this is absolutely ridiculous. It's absolutely ridiculous. Who thought of this idea? I've got

a pain in my arm right now. I'm going to end up dying of stress. He said, so I told the other day that I was guilty of harming kids because I said that not only could I not afford an EV, said one of the commenters, but also my garage wasn't wired up to charge it. So you're going to harm the kids, said somebody to someone who had a regular car. Another person commented on the clip and said, until EVs are powered by some sort of fuel cell, they'll never ever be mainstream. And again, you know, you can see, look, you can have fuel cells, you can have hydrogen. And of

course, these are all technological problems that could be worked out. But look at all the money that they've thrown at the battery operated car. That's the only thing that they want to fund. It's the only thing that they want. They do not want to have hydrogen electric cars or fuel cell cars. Uh, they don't want to have any hybrids, right? They don't want to have, what was it? The Chevy Volt, I think that Eric talked about is really, um, uh, it, it was all electric in terms of its, you know, motors and, uh drivetrain and everything like that. But it did have on board, it wasn't a hybrid.

It didn't go back and forth between electric mode and a full-blown engine. Instead, it just had a small generator that used very little electricity. But that generator could run off and a gas generator, and that gas generator could very efficiently charge the battery while you're going. And so you got rid of all the range issues. So you've got all these different technologies that could be done. You even got technologies that have been developed. The hybrids have been developed. You know, that, that volt with the small generator in it, that's been developed, but they're shutting those things

down. GM had to shut down the development of their electric generator for the electric cars. They had to shut that down because it wasn't zero emission. And the hybrids like the Prius and things like that, those are going to be shut down because they're not zero emissions. They have no future in them. This is a political issue. It's not a technological issue. They desire to have nothing that gives us mobility. These battery-operated cars that have little range is the only solution they're going to allow. Again, it's just like you're going to take the vaccine.

You can't have ivermectin or HCQ if you get a respiratory illness. Not going to allow it. And not only that, but if you get a respiratory illness, we're going to try to kill you in the hospital with ventilators, with remdesivir, and the rest of this stuff. Because why? Because we are being subsidized to do that by the government, and they are subsidizing this type of thing.

He says, and this commenter thing. Uh, he says, um, and, uh, this, this commenter says, uh, commented on his video EVs with batteries will be looked at as the eight track or cassette players of the past. Well, I don't know. I think they're going to stop the music. Quite frankly, that's the whole point. They're going to stop the music for all of us because this is all about control and dependency. They want to control us centrally, and the central grid is the perfect means of control. Happiness. We all know what it feels like, but sometimes it doesn't come easy. I'm Garvey Bailey, the host of Happy Enough, a new podcast from the Globe and Mail about our pursuit of happiness. We know people want to live more fulfilling and positive lives,

but how do we actually do that? Is there a happiness code to crack? From our relationship with technology to whether money can really buy you happiness. We'll hear from both real people and experts to demystify this thing we're all searching for and hopefully find ways to be happy enough. You can find Happy Enough wherever you listen to podcasts. Can we unlock the power of nature to tackle microplastics? At the University of British Columbia, we believe we can. Dr. Orlando Rojasen team at the Bioproducts Institute

are finding cleaner ways to clean microplastics from our drinking water using filters made of natural renewable materials. At UBC, our researchers are answering today's most pressing questions. To learn how we're moving the world forward, visit ubc.ca forward happens here. To take away our mobility. And just like the Patriot Act, that was an act to come after patriots. When you look at the way the car companies are redefining themselves, you know, Ford and all the rest of these companies,

they don't call themselves car companies anymore. They are mobility companies. And yet the real purpose of a mobility company is to immobilize you, immobilize you, dependent on them, dependent on this global corporate governance, this public-private partnership of connected corporations and government to control your every movement, to turn you into renters for every movement, all of that.

On Rockfan Harps, it says, in Australia last year alone, there were 180 lithium battery fires reported in New South Wales, 120 in Victoria, 72 in Queensland, 59 in Washington. And HARPS, the thing that concerns me that I've pointed out, is battery energy storage sites. The acronym is BESS, B-E-S-S. And you had one there in Australia.

You know, Elon Musk, hey, I'll put it in. I'll do it for free if I don't get it done by this amount of time. He puts it in. It caught fire, big fire there. We've had big battery energy storage sites to store power for the grid because they're shutting down the functional fuels and putting out solar and wind. And so those things have to have a battery because the wind doesn't always blow and the sun doesn't always shine. And so it comes with these big battery things. You've got a million batteries there. What happens when one of them catches fire? Well, you get thermal runaway and a whole bunch of them catch fire, if not all of them. And they're not just putting these things

out in the desert. Here in Tennessee, they want to put them in the middle of the forest. What could possibly go wrong? Right next to populated areas. So, yeah, are they going to become the eight-track player? I'm convinced that some car manufacturers got together and convinced government that EV are the way to go. Stupid people in the government bought it hook, line, and sinker. No, they got it backwards. The government decided that they wanted this method, only this method. If they were concerned about emissions, again,

they would be looking at all these different approaches, just like if they were concerned about a pandemic. They would welcome all these different approaches. And when somebody came up and said, hey, look, I've got this great idea. How about this treatment? It works. It seems to work really well. No, no, no.

Can't have that. Can't have that. And we see the same thing with this. The government has a solution, and it's going to use the big corporations to implement that. It's going to use big media to push that on people. And the solution is to have control over our lives. As Nick Gambruno writes, it was picked up by Zero Hedge, three reasons that there is something sinister with a big push for electric vehicles. And they began with what Thomas Massey,

congressman, said, and this was a couple of months ago. He went to a committee hearing and he pushed back on Pete Boudigie, Secretary of Transportation. He said, do you realize that one electric vehicle has the power requirements of 25 refrigerators? He said, what do you think is going to happen to the power grid if you had the equivalent of every household buying another 25 refrigerators and putting them on the grid? Oh, well, no answer for that, do we? We know it's not going to work.

We know that it's designed not to work. And we know that they've designed this to accelerate its failure because they're now decommissioning the grid. They're deconstructing the grid. You now have the EPA putting emission standards on power companies to shut them down federally. It's been done by states through these renewable energy mandates. Colorado was the first one to do it about 15 years ago

when I did that video about it. And now they're all doing it. Texas is doing it, the rest of them. But it's not happening fast enough, so the federal government, the EPA, is going to start mandating that these things be shut down because of emissions. Got to have zero emissions.

It's not like we've got an air pollution problem. It's a dangerous fantasy based on political science, not on sound engineering. So here are three reasons why something sinister is going on with that. But first, a necessary clarification. No doubt you've heard the term fossil fuels before. Well, when the average person hears fossil fuels, they think of dirty technology that belongs in the 1800s. Many people believe they are burning dead dinosaurs to power their cars. Where did this stuff come from? Well, you know, the CIA was pushing peak oil in the 1970s when we had the Arab oil embargo, OPEC and other things like that. I don't know if they're the ones who coined the term fossil fuels. That might have been the oil industry itself, not even the CIA, because they wanted you to believe that it was scarce and limited,

so you pay what they charge you. But he says, I think people think that fossil fuels will destroy the planet. It's going to destroy us just like the dinosaurs died, that type of thing. Now, these ridiculous notions are true, but so he says, so we need to stop using this term fossil fuel. It's a weaponized thing. In the same way that they say, you know, the AP style rules say that you cannot refer to somebody as being pro-life. You must refer to them as being anti-abortion rights.

See Kyle. That's the right way to refer to people. Can't call them pro-life. You got to call them anti-abortion rights because you know, that's, that's got their, you know, they take the rhetorical high ground with the terms that they use. And so we ought to understand that fossil fuels are rhetorical high ground. Uh, that's why he says, so we should call them hydrocarbons.

No, no. call them functional fuels functional fuels that's don't go for neutral ground go for the high ground yeah take functional fuels these are things that work and also has that same alliteration you know f f f so he says evs are not green why well because you know hydro F F F. So he says, uh, EVs are not green. Why? Well, because you know, hydrocarbons generate 60% of the power that goes on the grid right now. As I've joked in the past, you know, uh, would they feel better if I just put a

big balloon on my tailpipe and then drive it to a power station and then release all of the emissions right there. Is that okay? Yeah, they used to be okay. Used to say that was okay. So, you know, you can not have it coming out of your tailpipe, but it's okay if you power the grid with quote unquote fossil fuels, with functional fuels. The emissions don't count if they're coming out of the power plant. You know, if you look at India, their power plants are so dirty that if you have a conventional car with a fuel economy of 30 miles per gallon, it's going to use, it's going to create less of their precious emissions

that they measure everything by. It's going to create less of that precious emissions that they measure everything by. It's going to create less of that than an electric vehicle that's charging off the grid that is powered by that dirty power plant. So he says, even by this logic, EVs do not reduce carbon emissions. They just rearrange them, relocate them, if you will. Additionally, EVs require an enormous amount of rare elements and metals like lithium and cobalt that companies mine in conditions that couldn't remotely be considered friendly to the environment and that are going to turn over our economy. He doesn't mention this, but I'll say it.

It's going to turn over our economy to foreign countries, and that's the whole point as well. A massive transfer of wealth to these crony capitalists who have their friends in Washington, a massive transfer of wealth from the Western middle class to these other countries. And then, of course, EVs cannot compete without government support. This is one of the things that really bothered me with RFK Jr.'s kickoff speech. He said, well, if you stop subsidizing, the oil companies will just go away. Well, nothing could be further... You stop subsidizing the green stuff,

and it'll definitely, definitely go away. As the Wall Street Journal points out, U.S. taxpayers will subsidize EVs by at least $393 billion in coming years. That is more than the gross domestic product of Hong Kong. Almost as much as we're sending to Ukraine, you know, to put that in perspective,

we're not at 393 billion yet with Ukraine. We're getting there quickly, but that in perspective, if you earned a dollar every second, that'd be $31 million a year. And it would still take you 12,677 years to total up 393 billion. But that's what we're doing to subsidize EVs. Yeah. What RFK Jr. gave you was a load of excrement. There's nothing that is more heavily subsidized than these green boondoggles. And that's not even considering the immense subsidies and government support that have already occurred. Furthermore, governments impose burdensome

regulations and taxes on gas vehicles to make EVs seem relatively more attractive. It's even built in, you know, when you look at the price of EVs versus conventional cars, internal combustion engines, there is a tax that is built into that as well. You pay for that, and then that money goes as a subsidy, as in the past, gone as a subsidy to companies like Tesla, another way that he became the world's richest man, by government subsidies of green stuff. The average EV still costs at least 21% more than the average gasoline vehicles. In other words, the EV market is a giant mirage. Have you received a red light or speed camera violation in the mail?

the host of Happy Enough, a new podcast from The Globe and Mail about our pursuit of happiness. We know people want to live more fulfilling and positive lives, but how do we actually do that? Is there a happiness code to crack? From our relationship with technology to whether money can really buy you happiness, we'll hear from both real people and experts to demystify this thing we're all searching for and hopefully find ways to be happy enough. You can find Happy Enough wherever you listen to podcasts. Artificially propped up by extensive government intervention. And then finally, and this I think is the most important reason,

the EVs are about controlling you. The EVs are spying machines. No, frankly, the worst thing, because they're not turning all the cars into spying machines. But the key thing is that this is a control grid for immobility, immobility, not mobility. He says, consider this, the last thing the Indian government wants is an incident like what happened with the Canadian truckers who rebelled against the vaccine mandates. Had the Canadian truckers' vehicles been EVs, the government would have been able to stamp out the resistance much easier. I pointed this out throughout the years of that. I said, if we didn't have the cars, think about how absolute and total their control would be.

And this is why they're so adamant about taking away our cars that are not charged through the grid. The people really in charge do not want the average person to have genuine freedom of movement or access to independent power sources. They want to know everything. They want to keep you dependent. They want to have the ability to control everything, just like a farmer would with his cattle. And, of course, they want to control the farmer and his cattle as well. They want to make sure that he cannot process meat on his farm unless he takes it to the USDA.

They think of you in similar terms. That's why gas vehicles have to go and why they are trying to herd us into EVs. Well, Congress is now taking on California's car ban, says Wall Street Journal. Well, that's a good thing. That's a good

thing. Except just like J.D. Vance's mask thing, it's a head fake. It really is a head fake. It's just an election gimmick. It truly is. The U. It's just an election gimmick. It truly is. The U.S. House this week plans to vote on a bill that would stop California and other states from banning internal combustion engines and making Americans and the rest of the country pay for their climate follies, says the Wall Street Journal. Let's hope that it passes. No. Hope in the original

meaning of the word, the way that it is written, if you look at hope as it's used in the New Testament in the Greek, it means a confident expectation. It doesn't mean, well,

this is pretty hopeless, but let's just cross our fingers and maybe it'll happen. I don't know. It's a confident expectation. There is no confident expectation this is going to pass. As a matter of fact, even the Wall Street Journal admits they have a confident expectation that it will not pass. You shall not pass because they're going to have the Democrats get in the way.

The Clean Air Act lets the EPA grant California a waiver to impose more stringent standards for tailpipe pollutants, such as nitrous oxide, for vehicles sold within its borders. This is because of California's historically smoggy air, which has now greatly improved over the past few decades. As a matter of fact, nobody talks about that anymore. It's not a problem, but they continue, they persist. It is metastasized.

The law allows other states to piggyback on the California standards, but Congress has never intended to give California authority to regulate vehicle greenhouse gas emissions. See, CO2 does not cause smog.

CO2 helps the plants grow. And they also don't, doesn't cause global warming. Federal law explicitly preempts states from imposing fuel economy mandates. And regulating greenhouse gas emissions does the same thing by the back door. Yet Obama and the Biden EPAs have granted California waivers, waivers from the law. Now, when Obama's executive order that was actually put out by Janet Napolitano, the head of his Department of Justice, she said, we're going to do deferred action against childhood arrivals, DACA. In other words, I'm going to give a waiver to everybody.

I said I was going to enforce the law, but I'm not going to enforce the law. And here's my declaration that I'm not going to enforce the law. And then Trump gets in, and he pretends that he can't do an executive order to countermand Obama's executive order. Instead, he asks for permission from the court, and the court says, no, you can't do that. How could you justify it? How can he as president not have an executive order that countermands it? But he didn't fight it.

He said, oh, okay, well, I guess we're done there. Uh, I, I made my promise, but you see, my hands are tied by the court system. I really can't do anything, said Trump. He didn't want to do anything. He kicked it to the court. This is how power is abdicated always by Congress to the bureaucracy. They don't want to have the responsibility of making a decision. And you know, if they really don't do anything that they, you know, they,

they identify these problems and they campaign on the problems. And then when they get elected, they say, oh, my hands are tied. I can't do anything. The courts, the bureaucracy say oh my hands are tied i can't do anything the courts the bureaucracy they're doing that i can't do anything vote for me again because that problem is still here well the problem is still here because you can't do anything then why would i vote for you again and why would i vote for that guy again by the way but anyway um you know that's the way this whole thing works. And so they're giving a waiver, a deferred action, for California to do this type of thing. So now the Biden EPA in March approved a waiver allowing California to require that most heavy-duty trucks sold in the state be electric by 2035,

regardless of whether the electric grid can support them and we know that it won't how do we know that well because even if they weren't in the process of destroying the grid capacity you couldn't have everybody putting the equivalent of 25 refrigerators on the grid california's EV mandates constitute de facto bans on internal combustion engines. So now here come the house Republicans writing in on their white horse to fix everything, except they're not. They've introduced a bill that would override the EPA waivers to let

California and other States directly or indirectly limit the sale or use of new motor vehicles with internal combustion engines. The bill would not interfere with California's authority to regulate actual tailpipe pollutants to protect local air quality. They would just say, well, you can't ban cars based on emission standards because that's what the law says. The law that Obama and Biden said, we don't, we're not going to force that law. We're going to let California do whatever it wants. Vehicle manufacturers can meet mandates on EV sales only by raising prices on internal combustion engines. So that means that people in Texas will pay more for gas-powered pickups to offset automaker losses on EV sales in California.

Ford lost nearly $60,000 on each electric vehicle sold in the first quarter. So they're not interested in making money. They're not interested in what the consumers want. They're only interested in doing what the government wants, and they're going to get that money back at the end. They're going to be given an oligarchic position, kind of a monopolistic type of position, to rent rides to people on the back end. That's their strategy. Progressives in California are increasingly using their state's size

to dictate policy for the rest of the country. And they point out in the Wall Street Journal, the current Supreme Court majority, including people like Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch, will not enforce the Constitution's Commerce Clause against state regulations that harm other states. You see, that's what the Commerce Clause is really about. The Commerce Clause is not there so they can use it to prohibit marijuana. That's what they have tried to make

that an excuse for. Of course, the Commerce Clause was there when they passed the Constitutional Amendment, the 18th, to get rid of alcohol. But the Commerce Clause is really there to stop, to create a free trade zone, to make sure that California can't shut down the economy of Texas or any other state, right? And so they misuse the Commerce Clause for prohibition and for other things, but they won't support its actual intended purpose. So that leaves the Congress the job, says Wall Street Journal, which has authority under the Commerce and the Supremacy Clauses,

but Senate Democrats will not pass the House bill in this Congress. So there you go. There's no chance it's going to happen. It's all just an election gimmick. Can you count on the Republicans to do this if they get elected? Good question. Who knows? Fighting the high cost of California's climate imperialism is still a good election issue. A good one.

And now, the David Knight Show. Well, the power vacuum.

This is from the Mises Institute. Power vacuum. A literal power vacuum. How the state wants to suck electricity from the EV uh, EV that you're required to buy. And this is not a theory. Uh, they have now made this a bill in California. Again, California showing where this is going. California saying we're going to ban all cars except for EVs.

Now, uh, you know, and as soon as they did that, they had a power crisis, and they said, don't charge your EVs. We're banning everything but EVs, but now we've got a power crisis, so don't charge your EV. And they're continuing to shut down everything that's not solar or wind. And so the bill, which has already passed the Senate, and it's on its way to the, um, you know, the house, the assembly that is predominantly Democrat, uh, states that all new electric vehicles to be sold in California after 2030 will

be bi-directional, you know, just like, um, their sexual orientation. Uh, so the state has to decide to essentially go all electric without having the ability to actually provide enough electricity, as we've always been saying. The climate warriors have gotten a bit creative and now see the millions of EVs in the state as tiny batteries to make up for their incompetence. Currently, not every EV can send power back to the grid. The bill, almost certain to pass, because this is California, would change that.

The bill, however, is only the first step in the process of being able to drain your EV. As a technology to get the electricity back onto the grid does currently not exist. So there you go. But the political power is going to be first, and then they come for the power out of your electric vehicle. So they have verified what their intentions are.

This can no longer be dismissed as a conspiracy theory. It is a conspiracy, and it's being rapidly implemented in California. Ban the cars, make everybody get EVs and then set up, you know, they've, once they pass this and they're going to mandate that people put the technology in place to suck the power out of the EVs and they'll put them on some kind of a smart meter that will prevent you from charging during the time when it's under stress. And if you've got anything in your car, they'll suck it out right then. So again, this is about immobilizing you. It's about central control. Shortly after announcing that all new vehicles

sold in the state by 2035, again, as a reminder, you know, immediately after they did that, they then said, you can't charge your EV because we don't have sufficient capacity on the grid. So now they're going to pull it out of the EVs. And as they point out from the Mises Institute, they said, imagine an emergency situation. I got a baby inside my car or something. People at the charger telling Jennifer Granholm, imagine an emergency situation. You have to leave your home immediately, but you can't because the state's drained your car. I mean, that could be a medical emergency for somebody in your family, right? It doesn't have to be something like an evacuation or an earthquake

response. It could just be a medical emergency. You can't get out. You got to wait for the ambulance to come, which adds more time. It's not terribly clear if you'd get paid for your power. Happiness. We all know what it feels like, but sometimes it doesn't come easy. I'm Garvey Bailey, the host of Happy Enough, a new podcast from The Globe and Mail about our pursuit of happiness.

We know people want to live more fulfilling and positive lives, but how do we actually do that? Is there a happiness code to crack? From our relationship with technology to whether money can really buy you happiness, we'll hear from both real people and experts to demystify this thing we're all searching for and hopefully find ways to be happy enough. You can find Happy Enough wherever you listen to podcasts.

Or if they would buy it back. Here's what I think will happen. I think they'll buy it back at wholesale prices and then sell it to you at retail. Why not? They've got all the power, right? Literally. Political power as well as electrical power. If the grid is your only power option because there's no gas cars, no gas stoves, no propane, no gas or oil heaters, right? It's so easy to control the public, isn't it? That's why this push by the Biden administration. It's so easy to control the public, isn't it?

That's why this push by the Biden administration. It's a full court press for control. I just wish people could see it. Central control of everything on the centrally controlled grid. And then they squeeze it down and push us into poverty, slavery, austerity. And so you need to start thinking of your generator as the equivalent of cash. You know, as they're doing black markets, as they're doing blackouts, I should say, we're going to have to black market in power.

And you start thinking about how you're going to exist outside of their control grid. The Psychology of Evolution, a book, quote from it, and this article from Mises. Now a person can go to a gas station and put solar panels on their roof or they can buy propane from the hardware store.

They can use natural gas in their home, even cut down trees to burn for heat and it's not going to be that long before people look back with nostalgia on this type of situation imagine we had a choice and we could do all of this kind of stuff imagine remember that we had the choice to do what i just listed for you in other words there's options other than electricity. There's literally millions of ways not to use electricity, but they're going to create a bottleneck for control. Everything must be electric, and we will control the electricity. The outer limits.

We will control the horizontal. We will control the vertical, as you see the oscilloscope. Anyway, imagine a literally all electric world where you are reduced, confined, and required to get the energy you need to live from one source, one centrally controlled source that everything you own runs on, one centrally controlled source that can cut the power to your home anytime it wants. And not just that, but to your car as well. So you see the China social credit systems, the central bank digital currency,

you own nothing, you'll be happier, all of that stuff right in there. The power of energy as a social control lever is nearly limitless. It's like the money stuff. It's just like CBDC. As a matter of fact, in the early 20th century, you had a lot of people saying, well, you know, energy is such a fundamental thing. Why don't we just get rid of this paper money, this fiat currency,

and we just denominate things in energy. It wasn't that much of a, you know, change in thought for the Kissinger administration with Richard Nixon as his sidekick. It really wasn't that much of a leap for them to get to the petrol dollar. They had already been talking about that type of thing. Let's just go straight to measuring things in terms of energy units. And so in the same way that the dollars control people and the banks control people,

well, the energy banks are going to control people. The power companies will have the power. There are already government-granted monopolies. So when you look at this, the oil refinery industry is saying there is no excess capacity anywhere right now. We're already constricted on this. And so there is no plan B.

And so dirty China is grabbing market share. That's why I say I agree with Jennifer Granholm. Let's do exactly what China is doing about climate change. Let's profit from it. You know, while all the rest of the idiots shut down their countries, let's build this up. Rabobank notes tongue-in-cheek that the Fed is purposely selling oil to keep the price low and ensure Biden's re-election.

Well, they're joking about that. But he continues to drain the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. You see, he can pump up the economy not just by taking interest rates down low for the election, but he's also trying to prop up himself in the election by draining the strategic petroleum reserve, dumping it on the market to try to get a temporary drop in the price of fuel. It'll be a miracle, says Rabobank, if any new refineries are ever built at all. U.S. refining infrastructure will soon become the gating

factor for gasoline production, even more so than access to oil. So even as Biden is shutting down Alaska in a massive civil asset forfeiture move, he is stealing what people have paid for,

leases that they bought. He's just stealing it. It's going to be the refinery capacity, which is they're not allowing more refineries to be built. That's going to be the thing that is going to deprive us of energy and mobility that we need through functional fuels. The lack of spare crude processing capacity due to underinvestment and shutdowns is happening more frequently with refiners ramping up on better margins and deferred planning work. They talked about it in a conference in Singapore this week. They said fuels like diesel and gasoline are vulnerable to sudden swings now. The dilapidated infrastructure means that there have been unplanned plant shutdowns almost every week or two in Europe. The market is overly sensitive to any unexpected supply disruption anywhere, they said at the conference. Everyone knows that there's no plan B, that we have no oil stocks, and we have

no excess capacity anywhere to refine the oil. Refining capacity is very tight, said one CEO who was there. Meanwhile, the price of diesel, the fuel that powers industry globally, globally, trucks, construction equipment, diesel. That has outpaced the rise in crude after a slew of refinery outages, partly due to excessive heat. Low stockpiles are driving an incredibly strong diesel structure, signaling market tightness. It's becoming more expensive to fund normal refining projects. Existing refineries will operate at the highest

rates that they can, as with refining margins staying high, the refining system is crying out for fresh investment with oil demand still growing, especially in Asia. So what is China doing about this? Well, while the Western world is suffering under the tyranny of green idiocy, which has all but assured record high gasoline prices once the system realizes that there is no more refining capacity, one clear winner is emerging. As Bloomberg reports, the running rates at China's state owned refineries jumped up to 83% of capacity, the highest on record. So while China's own economy is suffering, despite what Goldman recently calculated was record oil demand,

they are now exporting this because they find that even though they, you know, their internal economy is suffering the state owns the refineries and they can make more money by pushing it abroad because europe and the american government have capped our ability to refine any more oil so we really have reached peak oil the thing that the cia was always trying to scare everybody into, they have now forced this. It didn't happen naturally. We've got plenty of oil, plenty of oil everywhere.

We just don't have access to it because they've shut it down. And even if we had access to it, the refineries are being shut down. So the world's second biggest economy, China, is taking advantage of the Western refining crisis to steal market share. And to transport fuel has become one of China's fastest growing export sectors. As the government increasingly leans on overseas sales to keep its vast oil refineries humming. The Biden-Green-Grench agenda is going to leave China dominant here, folks. They're going to be dominant

on the materials required to make battery-operated EVs. And they're even going to be dominant on the fuel required to run the existing cars that are out there. Either way, Biden is turning this over to China. It's almost like somebody in China paid him or something, you know?

I don't know. I guess that's just a conspiracy theory, right? There wouldn't be any documented proof of that, would there? Biden's generous quotas for gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel are allowing refiners to bypass uncertain home demand and to profit from stronger world prices for oil products. And yes, having this stuff refined in China comes at a staggering environmental cost because who cares if China pollutes the world? We don't care what China does and we don't care what India does. By crippling Western production, where there was at least regulatory supervision over environmental standards,

the green idiots have pushed the bulk of production to China where anything goes. And so a lot of people are asking, so really, who is Biden working for? Americans are not his concern, right? And so when you look at what happened with this Alaska oil lease thing, remember that on his first day in office, he canceled the Keystone XL pipeline project, and now they're bragging that on his first day in administration, the Biden administration is bragging this.

They put out a press release. Biden directed us to look at the oil and gas leases sold during the Trump administration. And so these oil and gas leases that were sold in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, they were legally awarded. These people paid for them. And now you have the king of civil asset forfeiture, the commander and thief Biden has now

decided that he's going to do civil asset forfeiture with these oil leases that people legitimately bought. There he is. Yeah. The commander and thief. Yeah. Mr. Um, Mr. Warren drugs. Well, he's got Warren energy Mr. War on Drugs. Well, he's got war on energy going as well. On Rockfin, thank you very much, Eric. I appreciate that tip. Thank you.

He says banning functional fuel was the first thing that Pol Pot did when he took power. Well, how about that? I didn't know that. But it makes sense. You control people through the fuel. Mal control people through food., uh, mal control people through food. And of course, Stalin did as well. You know, that's one of the reasons why he did what he did

with a star of the people in Ukraine, the Holomador, uh, he starved the people who were producing the most food. You know, these dictators are all about starvation deprivation. Uh, and that's, you know, tells you exactly everything that you need to know about Biden, that he's trying to do that to us. What we found in our analysis is that the lease sale itself was seriously flawed and based on a number of fundamental legal deficiencies. There's no legal deficiency in stealing what the government previously sold to people. I mean, really, how do you, one of the things that Biden has done to undermine

the dollar is to put these sanctions on and to do all of these different things. Nobody trusts the dollar anymore because they don't trust the American government. You know, what, what's going to happen with it? Well, you can just confiscate anything that you want. This is again, one of the biggest cases of civil asset forfeiture that the father of civil asset forfeiture, government theft. The father of civil asset forfeiture, Joe Biden, is now putting this out. As the climate crisis warms the Arctic more than twice as fast as the rest of the world, they said, will prove it. It's not warming at all.

So if it's warming twice as fast, we should see something there, but we don't. The administration proposed a rule on Wednesday that would protect the 13 million acres in Alaska. Again, this is a dictation. This is regulation without representation. And they've been called on that by Joe Manchin, who's increasingly declaring his independence. Maybe he's going to make a third-party run against Biden. If they put up Biden and they put up La La, they deserve a third-party challenge.

Larry Kudlow said, this is sheer insanity. He said this is going to benefit Russia, Iran, Venezuela, our geopolitical enemies. You see, this is the way the Republicans think. This is Pence thinking. Pence thinking. The only thing that matters here is geopolitics. How is this going to affect the American empire here? It's going to enable, it's going to give more contracts and money to our geopolitical enemies. They never even think about what it's going to do to Americans. Larry Kudlow, the Trump, um, um, administration official also, you know, commentator on Fox.

He doesn't care. It's all about the geopolitics, right? And, uh, who, who would care about affordable energy for Americans? Well, not the Republicans or the Democrats. He said, Biden is playing in the hands of some of the worst actors in the world. And so there you go. This is crazy. It's going to hurt us militarily. So one person in response to that, so who is Biden working for? Well, we know. We know who he's working for. Joe Manchin, meanwhile, has said, this is yet another example of the administration caving to the radical left

with no regard for clear direction from Congress or American energy security. Let's be clear, said Manchin, this is another attempt to use executive action to circumvent a law to accomplish what this administration does not have the votes to achieve in Congress. You see? All this stuff. Rule by executive order. Same thing we've seen with the New Mexico governor. I don't have the vote.

Lala Harris even said that. After Trump modeled, you know, we'll take the gun, we'll do the due process later. And then he banned bump stocks by executive order. And right after he did that, I said, the Democrats are going to take that and run with it. Was it just a week or two after he did that? Lala Harris, who was running for president at the time said, if I'm elected president, I'll give Congress a hundred days to pass my rules for gun control. And if they don't do it, I'll do it by executive order. And that's exactly what they've done about everything. We're increasingly becoming a dictatorship, and we do not want to have a situation where every four years we elect a new dictator.

That's one of the reasons why this country is being pulled apart in a partisan civil war, is because we now, left and right, believe that the only way that we're going to get what we want is by putting our dictator in power. We have to understand that just as Reagan said, even though he did the opposite, he said, government is not the solution, government is a problem. We have to understand the presidency is not a solution. The presidency is one of the biggest problems in Washington. And we need to stop focusing on that as a solution. As Gerald Ford said, any government or any president, just to, he didn't say it about the president, but just broaden it out. Any president who has the power to give you everything that you want has the power to take away everything from you.

We do not want the president to have that kind of power. The founders did not want that president to have that kind of power. And we need to go back to the structures and the checks and balances that they had and so in this particular case joe manchin mansion is 100 right this is crazy yeah these uh you got david hogg saying you can't declare an emergency and suspend the constitution this is how how crazy and wacky everything has become, that you got people on these radical leftists, or in some cases, hitting the truth that the Republicans won't say.

He went on to say, mention, canceling valid leases. And I'll add, the people have paid for, purchased. The government sold them this. And now, whenever the administration changes, they can just take away what you just paid for? Really? And we kind of had that with the CDC under both Trump and Biden,

saying, oh, well, you know, you can't, if these people don't pay the rent or pay the mortgage, you can't kick them out. We're going to take over your business agreement, and we're going to let the CDC, of all things, run it. So he says, canceling valid leases, removing acreage from future sales, and attempting to reduce production in Alaska while taking steps to allow Iran and Venezuela to produce more oil with fewer environmental regulations makes no sense

and is frankly embarrassing. It is kind of interesting to see what has happened with Iran. You know, we have a prisoner exchange. I just mentioned this briefly. Prisoner exchange between the U.S. and Iran. And then in addition to sweeten the deal, we free up $6 billion to Iran that the U.S. government had frozen. And then as all of that is happening, and as Biden is shutting down the Alaska Reserve and stealing the leases from people who paid for them, then he goes out and they have stopped

some Iranian tankers and taken the oil from them. I mean, we've turned into the Barbary pirates. Haven't we? What is he going to do with that oil? I don't know, but we had Trump who said, oh, we're just going to Syria and we take the oil. We just take the oil. That's what we need to do.

Well, that's what Biden is doing on the high seas. I mean, we've turned into terrorists. Our government is a government of terrorists and pirates who steal, who go to war, who assassinate, and who are at war with us over the fundamental things in our life, and you better prepare for it. Again, in Western Journal, Jack Gist, he is the Gist of this. He says these decisions are illegal, they're reckless, they defy all common sense,

and they are the latest signs of an incoherent energy policy from President Biden. Why disagree with that? I'm sorry, that wasn't him. That was Lisa Murkowski, a senator from Alaska. It's not an incoherent energy policy. His energy policy is very coherent, very consistent, and very determined. No energy for thee. That's the Biden policy.

Murkowski is an on-and-again, off-again Republican who is often courted by Democrats for her vote. For her to sound off against the Biden administration is very telling. Well, maybe an election is coming up, you think? Dan Sullivan, Alaska's other Republican senator, said, Not only is this an affront to the rule of law, it is also a grave injustice to the Inupiat people of the North Slope, if I'm pronouncing that correctly, especially the people of Katowik, the only village in Anwar.

He said, reporters, he said, they love to talk about racial equality and racial justice, environmental justice, taking care of people of color, but with one exception, the indigenous people of Alaska. They screw them every time. But as Zero Hedge points out, it's not just the indigenous people of Alaska who are getting screwed in all of this.

You know, it's kind of interesting, one person's comment in response to Greta Thunberg that I saw. Greta Thunberg puts out, says, a reminder, the people in power don't need conferences, treaties, or amendments to start taking real climate action. They can start today. When enough people come together, then change will come together and we can achieve almost anything. So let's start creating it. And I love the response that one guy had to her. He said, you know, the Salem witch trials were run by Harvard-educated judges. And the convictions were based on the testimony of children. The exact same model that we see with the climate cult.

It is exactly like the Salem witch trials, Harvard educated judges following the accusations of children like Greta. So I'll finish with this. So one thing here, um, finish before we take a quick break and move on to something else. Um, this is an article that, um, uh, is, uh, from Patrice Lewis talking about the benefits of power outages. And, you know, there are silver linings to things. You know,

when we look at the shutdown of the schools, what that, that allowed zoom classes allowed the parents to see that, yes, this is happening in my child's classroom. As I've said before, there's always this denial. Yes, I know that it is happening in Washington, but that's not my kid's classroom. Okay, it's happening in the state that I live in, but that's not my child's classroom. Okay, it's at the county level. Okay, the principal is on board with this and so forth, but it's not in my kid's classroom. Well, they could see that it was in their classroom. And so the good thing she said was,

you know, we've had this power outage. And it was good because it, you know, provoked us to start taking measures. And just like the Zoom classes provoked a lot of parents to actually do something to protect their kids, they got pushed to do something about the power adage they said they live in an area where the power has after they moved to this area uh the power became um it's somewhat intermittent and they said when the first

winter ended ended we went about preparing ourselves to be comfortable without electricity because we'd seen that um so we would not be as vulnerable so we installed a wood cook stove and we stored 200 gallons of water and we purchased a hand pump for our well we bought a small solar battery system to run the chest freezer in the absence of electricity it also powers my laptop when i'm working and for lighting we have an array of both solar charged lamps and of kerosene lamps in short we're now comfortably situated for extended power outages meanwhile it took our neighbor a good two hours of tinkering to get his generator up and running the last time we had a power outage they said so currently our lifestyle is a blend of conventional and off-grid

of low-tech and of high-tech we We prefer either hand-operated options or solid-state tech to provide our needs. As our neighbors are struggling with, as Generator illustrated, things with a lot of moving parts can cause problems at inconvenient times. In its push to make everything electric, the Biden administration refuses to acknowledge the elephant in the room. The grid can be taken down by EMPs or weather conditions electric. The Biden administration refuses to acknowledge the elephant in the room. The grid can be taken down by EMPs or weather conditions or accidents or sabotage and leave millions of people vulnerable. Additionally, loading more electric vehicles and appliances

onto an already teetering power grid is asking for trouble. Again, the 25 refrigerators that Thomas Massey talks about. This is why our approach is to be able to separate ourselves from the grid. We don't have, nor can we afford, a full solar array and vast banks of batteries. Instead, we choose to target specific weaknesses, such as running the chest freezer and powering my computer on work days. Unfortunately, the vast majority of people in America do not have the option of installing a hand pump on their well or cooking

on a wood cook stove. Neither option is available in apartments or even in most suburban homes, and so power outages can quickly move from inconvenient to dangerous. And that's the key thing. We need to understand that just as we look at their moves to push us into central bank digital currencies to control us, they're also making moves to control us from an energy standpoint. And just as we have to prepare to operate in a black market financially. We have to prepare to operate in a blacked out grid. And so that means that we take some precautions now to protect ourselves. And again, you know, when you look at, so what can you do? Well, when you're talking about the power type of stuff and those types of preparations, again,defensemanual.com, the two volumes that Jack Lawson has at civildefensemanual.com.

A great place to begin. He begins with keeping your water going. And so that is very important. And you can find that there. And it's also very important to make sure that you are financially outside of this net that they're trying to create. Again, when you look at the internet, now, why do they call it a net? It's becoming more and more obvious to me, isn't it? Uh, yeah, it's a network, but it's really a net to ensnare everybody. If you want to get out of that, you got to get out of it with cash and the real money is gold.

And that's going to be something that, you know, gold and silver, davidknight.gold will take you to Tony Arnabin, Wise Wolf Gold. It's very important to make sure that you have some options rather than completely depending on the central bank or the central power grid. Cannot stress that enough. We can do whatever we can to try to change this system and to try to nullify it, whatever. But the most effective way that you can nullify this is with the preparations that you take personally. You know, when you look at what the Chinese are doing in terms of gold, I mean, people,

it's still pretty much hidden to everybody. But this is a long article from that's on Zero Hedge where they come to the conclusion that China has got about 5,000 tons. Well, that'd be about $320 billion. That's about what the Biden administration is about to give in terms of EV subsidies. It's still small, but they're building it. And it may be a lot larger than anybody really understands because they don't tell people. As Tony has said, it's a more closely guarded secret how much gold these governments have. They guard that more closely than they do their nuclear weapons, because the financial stuff is a weapon and it is aimed at you. And so you have to understand that you need to make preparation

for that. We're going to take a quick break. And when we come back, we're going to give, we're going to take a look at a couple of emails from listeners, as well as an update as to what is happening with these drag queen story time hours. I got an update as to what is happening with these drag queen story time hours. I got an update as to what happened here in Tennessee. I thought that it was stopped. I was wrong about that. We're going to talk about what really happened here in Tennessee. We'll be right back. Using free speech to free minds. It's the David Knight Show. Well, this is a comment and a donation from a listener on Zell.

Jay, I've seen Jay there many times, a regular contributor. And he said, it's getting harder to contribute. I'm sorry. He said, they're crushing us. Thank you very much. Well, I understand. And look, I don't want anybody to, if you're feeling any kind of financial pressure, don't feel any pressure from us to contribute. We're going to be moving up the gas gauge. I think it's now at three-eighths is where it should be. But this is why we're not putting this behind a firewall. I don't want to make the information dependent on people's ability to pay. So please don't go through financial strain to support us. Uh, we trust that God is going to provide, uh, what he wants us to do. He also, uh, commented and said, info wars blocked

me from comments for talking about Alex and the tranny promo. Sure. They did. Uh, they pull that thing down pretty quickly because he got nothing but, uh, incoming friendly fire or unfriendly fire maybe about that by the way uh today is the day that owen uh schwarer gets sentenced so you might want to pray for him um it's just one what i understand if i haven't looked at the indictment before when i heard uh before what was said before was the basis of this was the fact that he was there in proximity to the Capitol. Of course, he did not go into the Capitol, but he was there for January the 6th. And he had already, because the previous year, he had done a PR stunt where he went to Washington and he shouted at some congressional hearing or something. And he went to Washington and he shouted, uh, at the, um,

at, you know, some congressional hearing or something. And so he stood up and he started shouting for publicity stunt. And, uh, so they sentenced him and then suspended the sentence and said, you can't come back to the Capitol for a year. And then, uh, they started looking at people under fine tooth comb because this January the sixth stuff. And they said, well, he violated his parole. And so now they've recommended 120 days in jail. Um, I, you know, who knows? I mean, what we've seen with bigs and the other people, they've got these astronomical

sentences. They were giving them, uh, about 50% of, uh, what the prosecutors had asked for. I don't know if that's going to happen or not. But it is sad to see that. And it is sad to see, quite frankly, I mentioned Sam again. Sam, who was there, the only one there at Infowars who actually did any reporting. Everybody else is just rabble-rousing there. Sam saw what was happening, and he did what I would have done, what any reporter should have done.

Take the camera to go film what is happening. And he walked between the, you know, the, um, the, the, the ropes there, the velvet ropes on, he didn't do anything, didn't do anything. And, um, they, they came after him. He had to serve house arrest for that, and he was told by Alex that he would pay his legal expenses, and then after a few months, Alex fired him. I didn't want to, I guess he figured it was going to be too dangerous

to be around him for that. So Owen is looking at this as not directly involved with January the 6th, but anyway, so be in prayer about that, but especially about the people who have, you know, punished far beyond anything that could be merited. You know, people like Joe Biggs. I can't believe believe he's got 17-year prison sentence. Just absolutely insane. So I had a listener ask me, and this is something I've not talked about, the FEMA and FCC plan nationwide emergency alert test for October the 4th. Yeah, you're going to come in, regardless if you've got this thing blocked

or whatever is going to push us in there. Look, every emergency is a test, isn't it? it's a test of what we will put up with it's a test of our will grisham's um new emergency in new mexico was a test trump's public health emergency of march the 13th 2020 was a test uh it's always going to be an. We always knew that it was going to be something that was going to be an emergency. That's why FEMA has always been a concern as to how they were going to use things. So, um, again, uh, you know, when we look at, and then I'll say one more,

a letter here, this is from, this is a response from a lawyer. Uh, the other day I was talking about the difference between ethics and morals and what are our standards based on. And he makes an interesting comment. He said, in the practice of law, what may be ethical is not always moral. For example, a lawyer does not have to disclose something bad that a client did. Others might think that is immoral.

And so, again, just understand that we have a lot of different ways that we can, what do you base your life on? And you should think about that. You really should. Just as Solzhenitsyn said, do not live by lies. Don't base your life on a lie, you need to ask yourself, you know, what is it that is going to be the guideline and the foundation for how you live your life? Are we going to let culture set the standard? Culture is constantly changing. Are we going to let the law set the standard? Because that is constantly changing as well. And what informs those? Well, all of those are really downstream of our foundation and what we believe about God. Has he spoken? Does God exist and has he spoken? I believe he has. And I've based my life on that.

You should have that confidence as well. It's pretty clear that God exists. We can see this in intelligent design in so many different ways. The fingerprints of intelligent design are everywhere. You don't look at a car and say, wow, I wonder how that evolved from metal and rubber and stuff like that. No, you ask who made that. You should ask who made the world. And what information did he leave us about that?

As I said, I base my life on a hope. And it's not the way that we look at hope. The original definition of hope that you'll find in the Bible is a confident expectation, as I said earlier. And it doesn't mean in the sense that, well, you know, I don't know if that's going to happen. I certainly hope so, which means that you don't really think it's going to happen. No, hope meant confident expectation.

And it's just like, you know, when we go back and we look at the Constitution, we got a lot of words, and these words have, in many cases, evolved. You know, people say, well, what is a militia when you talk about the Second Amendment? Well, we know what a militia was then. Very well documented what it was. A lot of people try to tell you, well, militia now, that means the National Guard. No, it doesn't. Never did.

That was not the principle that was involved. And if you go back and you look at the original documents, we have all that information. If you go back and you look at the original documents we have all that information if you go back and you look at the original meaning of these words in hebrew or you go back and you look at the new testament that was written in quinn a greek it was a you know people still speak greek but they don't speak that kind of greek that is a dead language and that is uh really i think a bit of divine providence because if you have a language like English, words are constantly evolving. Well, now militia means something different, and now hope means something different,

but nobody speaks Koine Greek. They've left it alone, so it's a dead language that is fixed. People always say, well, we have a living constitution, so it doesn't mean what it says. It means what I think it means and what I want it to mean. The difference between a dead and a living language is very important because, you know, you now have to go with the original meaning.

That's a standard we should always have in terms of looking at the constitution. And I think it is important that we understand that all of these things, whether we're talking about law or what is accepted in culture, it is constantly shifting if it's not built on a foundation. And so what are you going to build your life on? What is the foundation that you are going to put your hope on, your confident expectation. Everybody has that in one degree or the other. Let me just say before we run out of time, I've only got a few seconds.

We've got things like the mayor of Burbank now getting a spanking by a drag queen in front of a bunch of children at a campaign event. We talked about how they were bringing this to this area. They had a queer and severe event. We talked about how they were bringing this to this area. They had a queer and severe event. I thought on that Friday before Labor Day that the thing had been shut down, but of course they lied about that. And we'll talk a little bit about what that looks like tomorrow, and we'll be ready for them the next time it comes. And we'll be there to document and to press charges. Thanks for listening.
