You're listening to The David Knight Show. As the clock strikes 13, it's Tuesday, the 14th of February, year of our Lord, 2023, day 1069 of the emergency. Today we're going to take a look at another emergency we didn't talk about yet. There's more information now about what happened in Ohio and truly amazing what we saw yesterday from Boudigay, who should be on top of this, but

he's not. So we're going to talk about that as well as more of the UFO fear-mongering. The World Health Organization is not done yet. They want more surveillance. Can never have enough because we've got to preemptively lock people down before there's even a pandemic. We'll be right back.

Stay with us. Well, it's something that I have not covered. And, of course, mainstream media has not given it the coverage that it needed until just recently. This is a derailment that happened in Ohio, right over the border from Pennsylvania. And I didn't cover it initially because we've had a lot of derailments and um you know this is something that happens quite frequently because of our dilapidated infrastructure but this one however has got a lot of moving components to it it has gotten incredibly large it is now as people are referring to it, a chemical Chernobyl, because the cleanup efforts have only exacerbated what is there. So we have a crumbling infrastructure.

We have government agencies that are not doing what they need to do in terms of oversight, in terms of cleanup, in terms of prevention. And we've been chasing balloons. So the video that you can see that's been released now shows that, take a look at this black and white video that is captured on a surveillance film going by there. You see how the undercarriage of that train car is on fire. So it is, the axles have locked up or something like that. That is what eventually caused the derailment was the locked up axles. That was 20 miles before the actual derailment. Sparks and flames seen in the video under one of the cars as it passes by the plant.

And two videos showed this type of thing happening. And so then the question becomes, well, why wasn't this detected? Why wasn't it detected by the people on the plane? But there is special equipment that is supposed to detect if there is something like this happening. If there's a lockup on an axle, lockup on a brake that could potentially cause a fire. Because these freight trains are carrying all kinds of chemicals that are toxic when in a derailment or something like that. It's a very common thing for trains to carry it. We'll talk about how common that is. But there is specifically a thing called a hot box detector to scan the temperature of the axles as a train

passes and sound an alert if they're overheated. Why didn't that happen? Why wasn't anything done about it? That train is not going that fast, and it was another 20 miles before it actually derailed. The crew did receive an alarm from a wayside detector shortly before the derailment, indicating a mechanical issue. Then an emergency brake application initiated. Again, when we're looking at this, this thing is going, what, maybe 30 miles

an hour or something um that is a very long time that it's been it was on it's a pretty big fire at the point where that video is captured 20 miles away from the point of derailment so has this thing been on fire for over an hour uh the ntbs uh I think they've got those initials wrong, I think it's NTSB. Yeah, yeah, it's a typo error. They said that there was an alert, but it was not known if it came from the hot box detector there or the next one that was down the track 20 miles away in East Palestine. And if the alert wasn't triggered when the train passed there in Salem, then why not? And they don't have any answers for that yet.

It's going to be a while before their investigation comes up with anything. Initially, this happened 11 days ago, the derailment. And then three days afterwards, they decided that they were going to do a controlled burn because they were concerned about a possible explosion. And yet when you see the pictures of this thing, it looks like a nuclear bomb is hit, like a mushroom cloud from the fire. And people are saying, where is the Department of Transportation? Where is the National Traffic Safety Board?

Why aren't they doing anything? Well, Boudiguet did make a speech yesterday. And it didn't have anything to do with this. He simply doesn't care. I wonder if when Boudiguet, whose qualifications for the job are that he's gay. That's it. His qualifications are that he engages in identity politics. This was a guy who was a mayor of a small town.

Not a very effective mayor. They called him Pothole Pete. And he gives a speech yesterday, I guess, you know, when they offered him the job. Maybe he saw it as the Department of Trans. I want that one. They abbreviated it. So he gives a speech yesterday,

and in it, he says the problem is that when he's handing out these tens of billions of dollars that he's got uh for political favors that he's setting up everywhere uh so for his future political runs uh he has been given an amazing uh point of leverage to set up friends and call on political favors with all this money that he got. But his big issue with all this is that we don't have enough black contractors and construction workers that are getting all of this money. You see, for him, the transportation department is about politics and it's about money. That's it. And his politics is identity politics.

I'm gay. We need to get some black people here. He's been taking down overpasses. Remember when we used to build roads and infrastructure back in the middle of the 20th century? And he's destroying that now. Spending billions of dollars to take down racist roads, overpasses. They go outside the city. Well, it was people like him who said,

we don't want to have any cars going through the city for the longest time. We wanted to have traffic bypass the town areas. And even today, you have these people who are designing these so-called smart cities. No cars. We have Vision Zero. even today you have these people who are designing these so-called smart cities no cars we have vision zero we want to have no one even the possibility of anyone being hit by a car so get rid of the cars cars go to zero inside the cities what is booty gay doing with all this stuff it's absolute insanity it's just pork just pork barrel politics and identity politics. So this is, again, three days after the derailment,

they decided to do a controlled burn, and it caused hydrogen chloride and toxic substances like phosgene to be released in the surrounding area. This is like chemical weapons. So yesterday, Boudier was speaking at the National Association of Counties conference. And instead of addressing this, he complained there weren't enough non-white construction workers. We've had far, way too many stories, he said, from generations past of infrastructure where you've got a neighborhood

often a neighborhood of color that finally sees the project come to them but everyone in the hard hat on the project looking like um doing a good paying jobs don't look like they came from anywhere near the neighborhood he said yeah they look like they came from Mexico, typically. Infrastructure for him is just politics, identity politics. He doesn't really care about this. And so as he was doing that, Babylon Bee picks up on it. Boudier promises to investigate the Ohio railway chemical spill for signs of racism. That's right. First of all, I want to reassure the citizens of East Palestine that I'm still very gay.

Also, I will do everything in my power to uncover the possible racist source of this deadly environmental disaster. Yes, East Palestine is a small Ohio town full of white people, but we want to know how this may affect BIPOCs. I will leave no stone unturned says the babylon b well they got his number don't they and we know exactly what the guy at this year's cheltenham glory rests in the lap of the gods curses alas our hero hasn't placed But there are still divine offerings up for grabs,

with all NoviBet customers getting a €10 free bet for every day of Cheltenham. And on top of that, we're paying up to seven places each way on selected races throughout the festival. I declare this a most generous offering. NoviBet. More power to you. T&C Supply 18 Plus. Bet responsibly. GamblingCare.ie. Just like everyone else in the Biden administration uh has absolutely nothing to offer us and when you look at the actions of not just the department of transportation the department of trans uh you you look at the epa uh this this should be their wheelhouse, right, so to speak.

And yet, you know, they're, well, yeah, nothing to see here. No problem. How does this affect climate change? That's what they want to know, right? Even Ilhan Omar is calling out Boudier for this. And, you know, J.D. Vance, who's a Republican, newly elected Republican senator from Ohio, said, we need to do an investigation because even though the EPA is saying it's no big deal, a lot of other people are saying there is a very big deal,

saying that they're seeing dead animals or sick animals right away. And again, just like a vaccination program, you don't typically see stuff happening right away. Typically a delayed response. So, you know, this is the EPA saying they've not, quote, detected any levels of concern in the community. They can be attributed to the incident at this time. No problem. No problem. Move along.

Nothing to see here. Let's talk about the balloons, they said. But Omar even saying, this will have a significant negative impact on the health and well-being of the residents for decades. We need congressional inquiry and direct action from Boudigay to address this tragedy, she said. Well, good luck. Turns out there are a lot more toxic chemicals on the train than originally reported.

They seem to have combined in a way that was not anticipated. But they had to do this in a hurry because, you know, time is money. Let's get this thing going. Let's just sweep all these concerns out of the way. State health officials were initially concerned about the presence of vinyl chloride, a highly volatile colorless gas produced for commercial uses. Other toxins like phosgene, hydrogen chloride were emitted, and large plumes of smoke during the controlled release and burn.

This is not something that is limited to Ohio. Pennsylvania has had a lot of these, and I'll give you the statistics on this in just a moment. But understand that this is something that can happen anywhere and everywhere in America. And if they don't have the procedures right, this could be your town. As a matter of fact, it wasn't really all that far from,

I think it was Pittsburgh. I'm not sure where this is. I think I saw in here that it was close to Pittsburgh. Anyway, among the substances were ethylene glycol, monobutyl ether, ethylhexylacrylate, and isobutylene. So I'm not a chemist, but anyway, these are carcinogenic. Burning, irritation of the skin and eyes, inhalation can irritate the nose and throat, shortness of breath, coughing can be deadly. That's why they evacuated the area before they did the controlled burn. Except that, you know, now this, it's still an issue there. Still an issue in the soil, in the water.

The toxins that burn in the wreckage have the potential to be deadly if they had not evacuated the area, said an expert to ABC News. But once the control burn was complete, the only risk of coming in contact with the toxins was if they were embedded in the soil, which then had to be dug out. The evacuation orders for the residents of East Palestine were lifted on Wednesday after air and water samples were collected in the region and deemed to be safe. There you go. You know, the vaccines are safe, but the coronavirus is not safe.

These people tend to fall off on one side or the other, don't they? Last year, ironically enough, and a lot of people have written about this, some people from the area were in a Netflix film, White Noise, a fictional story about a family trying to resume their life after an airborne toxic event. So this has fueled a lot of conspiracy theories by various people. There are a lot of conspiracy theories by various people. There are a lot of people like Stu Peters, always jumping into something like this and adding sensational details like a journalist covering the story had been arrested.

What the hell is going on? He says, you know, and always the people who were arrested were at a press conference where they were shouting at the official who was trying to speak. They're arrested for disorderly conduct and later released. But don't let that get Stu Peters. He's going to jump in any of these things. Absolutely amazing to see this guy operate. Scatter reports of dead animals, though,

well outside the original evacuation zone continue to stoke fears. One person said quote my video camera footage shows my chickens are perfectly fine before they started this burn soon after they started the burn my chickens slowed down and then they died said amanda brashiers of north lima if it can do this to chickens in one night imagine what it's going to do to us in 20 years yes the proverbial chickens in the coal mine issue that we have here. Well, there's a federal lawsuit already calling for health tests and other things. But the government, the bottom line is the government on every level has dropped the ball on this thing. And when we look at what happens with these derailments, this is one of the reasons why when we were talking about the cancellation

of the Keystone XL pipeline, you know, there are dangerous chemicals. There's no 100% safe way to do any of this stuff. You can transport it by train. You can transport it by truck. You can transport it by truck, you can transport it by pipeline, you can transport some of these oil, liquid, natural gas, things like that. You can transport them by ship. All of these things have potential for disaster if there's an accident. It turns out that even though you can have a leak on a pipeline, that is the safest way to move chemicals, especially petrochemicals.

And what I did not like about the pipeline was the way eminent domain was done. I thought that was an absolute crime. You had eminent domain for, and I've talked about this before, there's a foreign company, TransCanada, that was running the Keystone pipelines, and they were given the power of eminent domain. And they were kicking people out who had had their farms for generations, over 100 years. To give the power, I don't like eminent domain in the first place. Then to give it to a corporation, you know, we've had the situations that, what was it, it was in Connecticut, was it New London, I think, where for the benefit of a corporation, they condemned property.

It's wrong to do it for a corporation, but this went further. This did it, gave the power of condemnation and eminent domain confiscation, gave that power to the corporation. And not only that, to a foreign corporation being run out of Canada. So there was a lot of problems that I had with the eminent domain aspect of it. But we do need to have fuel, and that is the safest way to transport it. There could have been a better way to operate that, I think. Anyway, 25 million Americans. So here's how this affects you, this decaying infrastructure

that Boudigais is not going to do anything about, but he's going to engage in these kind of theatrics, getting rid of racist roads, right? This is what he really needs to be focused on. It's not just roads, it's not just bridges, but it's also railroads. By one estimate, 25 million Americans live in an oil train blast zone. And had the derailment occurred just a few miles east, it would be burning in downtown Pittsburgh.

There it is. I thought it was Pittsburgh. With tens of thousands of residents in imminent danger. About four and a half million tons of toxic chemicals are shipped by rail each year. An average of 12,000 rail cars carrying hazardous materials pass through cities and towns each day, according to the U.S. Department of Trans. Overseeing my booty gay. The Pittsburgh region alone has seen eight train derailments over the last five years. They said about 1,700 train derailments occur annually in America.

Again, decaying infrastructure. Some of the stuff was sabotage, as a matter of fact. You know, we've had people going around shooting up power stations for whatever reasons. Another thing, there is some deliberate sabotage and there has been so have been several incidents of sabotage of railroad you know causing railroad derailments and things like that i've not reported on those because it's difficult to get the the details correct and i don't want to get onto something that is well this is just you know rickety old railroad or this was

deliberate sabotage but it is something that is very common, because we do have a decaying infrastructure. And it is especially common in the Pennsylvania area, in the Pittsburgh area. These eight accidents, they said, highlight the various ways that things can go wrong. A crack in a track ignored by railroad, caused a derailment in 2018, while another train hit a dump truck at a crossing without adequate safety equipment. A broken axle on a train car is thought to be the source of this one. Up to 50% of volatile Bakken crude oil refined on the East Coast currently runs through Metro Pittsburgh and about 176,000 Pittsburghers live in the derailment

blast zone. So again, railroad infrastructure tracks bridges, but we're going to take down racist roads. That's how booty gates. He's going to use this simply for political purposes. They're going to use it to put speed bumps. They're not going to fix the potholes.

They'll add the inverse of a pothole, a speed bump. And then they'll do, they call that road calming. It doesn't calm the road for me. It makes it pretty violent with my little car. Um, the, um, it, uh, and they call it road diets when they carve off, uh, the road that they will never expand that they will, uh, never go vertical with. Uh, but instead they start narrowing it horizontally with bicycle lanes and stuff like that. That's booty gaze priority.

He doesn't care about this kind of stuff. Railroads are playing Russian roulette with Pittsburgh. He said, uh, this is, uh, by the way, an article from the guardian,

uh, still the U S department of transportation, uh, the department of trans under booty gay and 2020 approved a rule to allow liquefied natural gas to be shipped via rail with no additional safety regulations. Trains can now run 100 or more tank cars filled with 30,000 gallons, largely from shale fields to saltwater ports. So, again, since this is coming from the Guardian, they're going to do everything they can to try to say, keep it in the ground, keep it in the ground where it can't explode. There is a level of risk that we all have to live with in our life, or we could just

all stay home and not even get in a car. Nevertheless, there are things that should be done, could be done to mitigate these risks that are not being done by the Department of Trans. The risks of catastrophic LNG releases and accidents is too great not to have operational controls in place before large blocks of tank cars and unit trains proliferate, said the NTSB, the National Traffic Safety Board, or Transportation Safety Board. filled with LNG, liquid natural gas, 22 of them, hold the same amount of energy as a Hiroshima bomb. A fire from an LNG is extremely difficult for local crews to contain. It is an extremely dangerous practice. Now, they will go on and on about the danger of transporting LNG on railroads,

but they won't talk about the fire hazards of EV batteries, for example, or the many environmental concerns about, you know, the mining of the materials and all the rest of this stuff. I've been astonished by the effect of the spillage of five cars of vinyl chloride has had in the Pennsylvania-Ohio border, but that would be nothing compared to the effects of a similar derailment of LNG, said one person.

Well, all of that is true. And it's all a reason that they should pay attention to the infrastructure. But not only do they not pay attention to the infrastructure, but they're not really doing anything in terms of, I think, adequate precautions from what it appears the eph is saying yeah no problem um move along there's nothing to see here that seems to be the response at this year's cheltenham glory rests in the lap of the gods curses alas our hero hasn't placed But there are still divine offerings up for grabs, with all NoviBet customers getting a €10 free bet for every day of Cheltenham.

And on top of that, we're paying up to seven places each way on selected races throughout the festival. I declare this a most generous offering. NoviBet. More power to you. T&C Supply 18+. Bet responsibly. GamblingCare.ie. From these people. We'll be right back. Thank you. All right, and we're back. The U.S. is going to finally ease some sanctions on Syria after this earthquake. They're going to ease them for six months, 180 days.

And as of Sunday,ay 33 000 people have been killed in the earthquake more than 4 500 people have died in syria at least 29 600 have been killed in turkey so far more in turkey than in syria nevertheless as the people are talking about this they said we wish to recall that such systems of humanitarian carve-outs may not be sufficient to address the long-term negative effects of sanctions, as well as business overcompliance with sanctions and financial de-riskings, a statement from those in Syria. And, of course, just a reminder that sanctions kill people. And the U.S. government, under all administrations, absolutely doesn't care. Madeleine Albright, never forget that amazing interview. Your sanctions killed a half million kids. Was it worth it? Yes, it was. Really? Shameless. Absolutely shameless. But let's talk

a little bit about the controversy at the Super Bowl. There's a little bit of controversy about Rihanna's vulgar behavior there, but that's, isn't that expected at this point now? It's just, you know, so I, I'm not, I haven't been interested in football since I was in high school, but it's just amazing to me how this has become such a big cultural event. And everybody brings all the kids and watch the halftime show. It's great. And yet, even more than that, there's been a lot of controversy about this He Gets Us ad campaign. I talked about this last week before the Super Bowl.

One person commented, said, they're not preaching a solid gospel anyway. Why spend this much on ads and not do something else with the money? Exactly. Used to be a time when you showed your faith by building hospitals and schools. Those were originally done by Christian organizations. Now we do ads because we want to do propaganda. We want to persuade people. We want to have a watered-down gospel that doesn't really say anything.

And that's when you look at the website of this organization, He Gets Us. It begins by saying, How did the story of a man who taught and practiced unconditional love become associated with hatred and oppression for so many people? Really? Have they never opened a New Testament? Are they absolutely? And every one of the Gospels, right, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, every one of them, they will hate you because of my name. They will hate you because they hate me.

They'll seek to kill you because they killed me. Jesus, all of his apostles, all warned Christians about that. What made them think that Jesus was going to be a unifying figure? Yes, he was about unconditional love, but he also talked about sin. That's when the hate comes. He came with an unconditional remedy for people's sin, but they don't want to hear the bad news,

and they don't get the good news then because of that. As a matter of fact, he even said, woe to you when everybody speaks well of you. Maybe they ought to take that heart that he gets us. So he said, how can we rediscover the life and teachings of Jesus, the world's most radical love activist? Well, you could just open the book and read it. I don't know. So he came as a savior to save us from the sin that these people want to minimize. They don't want to talk about that. If you don't understand your need for a savior, you're not going to understand the savior, right?

You got to first understand your need for that. To me, this just goes down the same road that I've seen for the longest time of these seeker-friendly churches. Well, I don't know. The Bible says there's nobody who seeks God really. So your whole premise is flawed there. And, but more importantly, that was something that really caught fire back in the 1990s. A couple of decades later, we can see the fruit of that movement. And I'm telling you the fruit of this movement, it's just unbelievable waste of money. A billion dollars. Could you help people who are trying to homeschool their kids? Could you build schools that would

teach the right thing? Could you even create a film business that's going to, and we've had a lot of Christians doing this on shoestring budgets, create a film business that's going to portray Christian values. People want to see good stuff. I'm quite, frankly, I'm sick to death of the weird stuff coming out of Hollywood. Now they've got a Winnie the Pooh slasher movie. This is how disgusting Hollywood has become. Nobody wants to see this stuff anymore. It's just a few people, teenagers, want to see this stuff and i don't even know they

want to see it uh but uh that is that is where we are and it is very offensive to people just take a look at what happened on the weekend that they had the march for life it was not only in the smithsonian we had people had gone to this march for Life and they had pro-life merchandise on, t-shirts, caps, beanies, buttons on their bags and stuff like that. They threw them out of the Smithsonian. And they threw them out of the National Archives where we have the Bill of Rights stored and the Constitution stored. So you got these people who go to the march and then afterwards,

they decide, oh, let's go take a look at some of the museums, you know, the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum or the National Archives or whatever. And the guards threw them out and threw them out with prejudice, yelling and screaming at them with profanities and things like that. And so on Friday, the National Archives apologized about this. They said, as home to the original Constitution Bill of Rights, which enshrined the rights of free speech and religion, we sincerely apologize for this occurrence.

This came after they were sued. The American Senator for Law and Justice, Jay Sekulow, sued them on behalf of four March for Life participants from three different states. They sued them for First Amendment violations. According to the complaint, each of them separately and uniquely decided to visit the National Archives to view the nation's founding documents on the morning of January the 20th, while wearing various clothing with pro-life messages.

After entering the museum, however, the pro-life visitors were approached by security guards who took issue with their pro-life apparel. One was a law student from Virginia. Her t-shirt, this is the back, she had a black t-shirt that said, I am the post-Roe generation, law students for life. Oh, that's really offensive, isn't it? I mean, they're not going in as pro-life students with a T-shirt that shows a mutilated baby that was aborted or something. It's not something like that. It's just, I am a law student for life, supporting life. Get out of here, says the government institution that houses the Bill of Rights. Another was a high school student from Michigan.

Her crime was to have a T-shirt that said, Life is a human right. Life is a human right. We are endowed by a creator with certain inalienable rights. Among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Well, I can't have that here. And then she also had, she was told to take a button off of her bag. The small button said, pro-love is the new pro-life.

Now, the law student that was kicked out from Virginia said she saw that morning at least two other visitors freely walking around while wearing what appeared to be pro-abortion apparel with statements to the effect, my body, my choice and pro-choice and other things like that. Because that weekend they had the March for Life on a Friday. And then on Sunday they had, you know had the March for Abortion or whatever they call it, and the women's movement or something like that. Anyway, so Friday, Sunday, and then this is the Saturday. People from both groups are going to the museums, and the people with the pro-life apparel get thrown out.

At the Smithsonian, there is a lawsuit there, again, by the American Center for Law and Justice. It was the Air and Space Museum that people went to, and not clear exactly what is happening with us. There's a group of people wearing matching beanies with the words Rosary Pro-Life. They said, well, you know, they're light blue, bright blue. I said we're using that to keep track of everybody in the group to keep us all together. But again, the parents of the students involved that had these beanies on, so again, so they could track them, said that the staff was mocking them, hurled

expletives at them, claimed that the museum was a neutral zone where political or religious messages were not allowed. Again, what does it say? Rosary, pro-life. That's a political message, right? Is it? On social media, a student reported telling a guard they were wearing the hats

to identify, find each other in the crowd. The ACLJ reported the employee who ultimately forced the students to leave the museum was rubbing his hands together in glee as they exited the building. We here at the ACLJ are absolutely appalled at this blatant discrimination and will not let this behavior stand. So the Air and Space Museum has said, well, we are now retraining the staff. That's that. has said, well, we are now retraining the staff. I said. Meanwhile, at the NFL, this is an article you'll find on Zero Hedge from Common Dreams, NFL Super Bowl accused of hijacking the Pat Tillman story.

One of the saddest things, you know, when you look at this, taking somebody who has the best of intentions, I think, gaslighting them, and then using them after lying about how they were killed. So the coin toss captains at the Super Bowl, introduced by a video segment narrated by Kevin Costner. Viewers are told how Tillman gave up his NFL career to join the Army Rangers and ultimately lost his life in the line of duty. And this guy is just like a superhero G.I. Joe at a central casting

when you look at it. It's just amazing. But one Twitter user said, another year of hijacking the Pat Tillman story and not telling us that he hated the Iraq War and was killed by the U.S. military. Tell the real story of Pat Tillman or get off the screen, said another on social media. Well, here's the real story. Tillman was 25 years old at the time.

He turned down a $3.5 million contract with the Cardinals To enlist in the U.S. Army May 2002 After the 9-11 attacks on the U.S. So here he is, what was that, eight months afterwards Expected to be deployed to Afghanistan Instead he was sent to invade Iraq A country that had no ties to 9-11 expected to be deployed to Afghanistan. Instead, he was sent to invade Iraq, a country that had no ties to 9-11.

Tillman quickly claimed to deplore what he called the effing illegal war and even made loose plans to meet with Andy War, Noam Chomsky, according to The Intercept. His brother, his family is very upset. His brother, Kevin, also enlisted. He said, somehow we were sent to invade a nation because it was a direct threat to the American people or to the world or harbored terrorists or was involved in the September 11 attacks or received weapons grade uranium from Niger or had mobile weapon labs or weapons of mass destruction or had a need to

be liberated or we needed to establish a democracy or to stop an insurgency or to stop a civil war that we created that can't be called a civil war, even though it is? It was something like that, said his brother Kevin. So they were sent to Afghanistan April 8, 2004, stationed at a forward operating base. Pat Tillman was killed April 22 by what the Army said was enemy fire

during a firefight. However, the Army knew in the days immediately following his death that he had been shot three times in the head from less than 30 feet away by so-called friendly fire. You don't think that you'd be able to tell this guy's not an Afghan

from 30 feet away? Three times in the head. That U.S. troops had burned his uniform and his body armor in a bid to conceal their fatal error? Was it an error?

The deception surrounding the case was an insult to the family, but more importantly, its primary purpose was to deceive a whole nation, said his brother in congressional testimony in 2007. We say these things with disappointment and sadness for our country, he said. Once again, we have been used as props in a Pentagon public relations exercise. His father told the Washington Post in 2007 after his son was killed, all the people in positions of authority went out of their way to script this. They purposely interfered with the investigation. They covered it up.

I've talked to the father of Michael Strange. It was part of the SEAL team, six, most of whom were killed. And, you know, that was the group that supposedly took out Osama bin Laden. Talking about how he said, yeah, they were shot down and killed in the crash. He said, no, and we found out later that he was executed close range. I mean, they just changed everything about it. It's just amazing. It's amazing what the Pentagon did in that story. Anyway, what did you expect? This is a war that was based on lies obtained by torture. The person who ran the program, who covered up the torture was put in jail for the rest of her life.

No, she was promoted to the director of the CIA. Donald Trump, who was clear when he was campaigning, always said, you know, the Iraq war was based on lies about weapons of mass destruction, and yet he put the liar in chief, the person who ran it, the person who ran the cover-up, the person who delivered the lies, he put her in charge of the CIA, Gina Haspel. Anyway, the following year, Tillman's mother, Mary, was interviewed by Sports Illustrator, blamed U.S. military and George Bush administration officials all the way up to then-Defense Secretary Don Rumsfeld for covering up their son's killing. They attached themselves to his virtue, and then they threw him under the bus.

They had no regard for him as a person. He'd hate to be used for a lie. I don't care if they put a bullet through my head in the middle of the night. I'm not stopping. Maybe she doesn't think it was an accident. Speaking of shootings, before we take a break here, this situation has been percolating for about a week or so. The U.S. rancher charged with murdering Mexican trespasser.

They have charged him with first-degree murder. Premeditated? I mean, what they have, they put a million-dollar bail on him, and they're treating him as if he was like sitting in a deer stand or something, you know, waiting to pop off Mexicans as they come across the border. Well, nothing could be further from the truth, actually, according to his lawyer. He didn't talk about this, but now his lawyer has come out, giving his version of the events.

They put a million-dollar bail on this rancher. This, by the way, is in the same county where Sheriff David Hathaway is. He's not responsible for the bail. I mean, as a sheriff, he's got to, you know, if there's a situation where somebody is killed, you know, brings them in and the so-called justice system takes it from there. They determine conditions of his bail, the level of his bail, the charges that are going to be made against him. That's a district attorney. That's not the sheriff.

The sheriff is just there in his office is to, uh, you know, get when something happens and the buddy's killed, you got to sort this thing out. But it is what is being done there by the justice department certainly does look to be over the top, egregious,ious, prejudiced, many other things. Charged with first-degree murder, million-dollar bail. This is what his lawyer said. The leader of the armed group of men saw Mr. Kelly and pointed an AK-47 right at him, he said. Mr. Kelly, fearing for his life and safety, fired several shots from his rifle,

hoping to scare them away from him, his wife, his animals, and his home. As he shot back, Mr. Kelly took care to aim well over the heads of the armed group of men. The group then began running into the desert surrounding his home. Once the group had fled, Mr. Kelly walked over to his barn

to see if it was safe and secure. He tried to raise money for his bail because it's just him and his wife. His age has been given, typically it's 73, some people say 74, some have said 78. Either way, he looks pretty frail, and he was brought into the courtroom in handc you know in handcuffs as they do and um feebly asked if he could speak to his wife and was concerned about her welfare she's alone there in a very dangerous area so he tried to raise the bail on go fund me and go fund me shut it down of course so now he's moved to the Christian fundraising site GiveSendGo. The original goal was for $25,000.

As of the last day, it's up to $281,000. GoFundMe said this is not about politics. They said we do not allow appeals on behalf of anyone who is accused of a violent crime. Nevertheless, getting back to the issue, as the lawyer said, quote, he saw a group of men moving through the trees around his home. They were armed with AK-47 rifles, dressed in khakis andaged clothing, carrying large backpacks. None of them were known to him. He had not given them permission to come onto his land. That's when Kelly, who was understandably concerned, retrieved his rifle, told his wife

to stay inside the home before firing warning shots. The group fled, and it wasn't until hours later that the man's body was discovered by Kelly. And then this was even after. So there's a shooting. He thinks he's firing warning shots. The U.S. Border Patrol came to inspect the property. They found nothing. So he's continuing to look around his ranch.

He found the body, and he reported it. How's that premeditated? How's that first-degree murder? I mean, that just doesn't make any sense that he would be charged with that. If he really was guilty of murder, as they say, you shoot, you shovel, and you shut up. He didn't try to dispose of the body or hide it. He called, said, hey, there's a body here. Anyway, the court filing said the deceased man had a, quote, radio with him, and he was wearing tactical boots, indicating that he was possibly involved in illegal activity. He's got a radio.

There are backpacks, AK-47s, military group. They fire warning shots at him. Maybe he was trying to shoot over their head. Maybe that just gave it the range that it needed to get to him. Who knows what the situation is. I mean, this is not a gung-ho cowboy guy that's out there just he and his elderly wife who are trying to defend themselves we'll be right back Decoding the mainstream propaganda. It's the David Knight Show.

Well, as a preview of what we can expect from the 2024 campaign, we have President Trump has got now not one, but three nicknames for Ron DeSantis. He called him before. He called him Ron DeSaintimonious. Evidently, he didn't think that was good enough. So now he's calling him Meatball Ron. I don't know what that really means. And Shutdown Ron. So this is going to be, you know, kind of level of debate and discourse over policy.

And, you know, what has happened to us the last three years? No, no, we're going to just call him, you know, schoolboy names. This is just so pathetic. And again, it was two weeks ago that he put out in a social account, the real Ron is a rhino globalist who closed quickly down Florida, closed Florida down quickly. We wouldn't, the rest of us would say, and even its beaches. Wasn't that Trump's claim to fame? I shut down our borders before Fauci. Fauci didn't want me to do it. I shut him down first.

And so then he criticizes DeSantis for the same thing. I think they're both wrong. Absolutely both wrong. But everything that he criticizes DeSantis for the same thing. I think they're both wrong. Absolutely both wrong. But everything that he criticizes DeSantis for, he did. The next thing he says, love the vaccines, wasted big money on testing. This is Trump saying this. Trump

loves the vaccines more than anybody. I've never seen anybody brag on the vaccines more than Trump. Even Fauci. I love them. They're great. Everybody should have them. He says, how quickly people forget. Oh, yes. How quickly they do forget and how they forgive and how they embrace the cognitive dissonance of continuing to support the guy who was the father of the pandemic, the father of the lockdown, the father of the vaccines, the father of the Great Reset. By the way, just as kind of an aside, I thought this was interesting.

Archaeologists are looking at the biblical Hittites, and they said they relocated due to climate change. I thought, what? They're going to go back and use the Hittites to push their climate change agenda? And this is a new study based on looking at the trees there at the time. And I think they just vanished. But now we know why. It was due to climate change.

And as I read this, I thought, well, how does this really forward their narrative here? Because if you're going to say they went through periods of drought and it completely destroyed change and as i read this i thought well how does this really forward their narrative here because if you're going to say they went through periods of drought and it completely destroyed their civilization you're going to blame that then on suvs we didn't know that did you you didn't know that moses got rid of the hittites by you know in Israel SUVs, creating climate change in the drought and making the land uninhabitable for the Hittites. You didn't know that, did you? What is the point of them grabbing this narrative to push climate change?

But I thought it was also interesting because the Hittites, as I've mentioned before, one of the, you go back to the early 1800s, and it really kind of began in Germany, what they called higher criticism. People would say, well, you know, Bible's just a bunch of fables. Nobody even has heard of, there's no evidence that any of these nations or tribes even existed. And of course, exhibit A was the Hittites. They talked a lot about Hittites. Yeah, they didn't even exist. Well, it was a vanished civilization, but once they started

engaging in archaeology and actually looking, they found them there. It wasn't something that was just made up. There's other religious books that do that, but no evidence, any archaeological evidence of the tribes described in America in the Book of Mormon. But if you look at the Bible, yeah, they were there. And it was a very large nation. And so it was, again, it was the people who were profoundly ignorant about the area, never had been there, never had looked.

And out of their ignorance, they criticized the area. It never had been there, never had looked. And out of their ignorance, they criticized the Bible. And it was, oh, well, yeah, now that we look, yeah, that's right, it's there. We see that a lot in a lot of different things. But another one he used for climate change. They said in the pre-modern world, if you had at least three consecutive years of severe drought, that would mean no food. Couldn't feed the people, couldn't feed feed the army you'd have to relocate they ruled most of anatolia from 1650 bc to 1200 bc i think it's interesting now you know archaeology was always a biblical

archaeology throughout the 1800s and early 20th century and you know we had the terms bc you know essentially before christ if you will or whatever but they don't like that now so they've all changed it to bce before the common era um what is the common era the common era is that we mark time from the time of Christ, more or less. We don't know the exact year. That's why I talk about the year of our Lord, 2023. So I'll always refer to it as BC. Anyway, so 1650 to 1200 BC, about 500 years.

They said it was a rival of ancient Egypt, a very large society that was there. But now they have gone back and discovered, looking at the trees, one of the things that made them disappear from the area and kind of fan out into other areas, be subsumed by the neighboring cultures. So I find it always interesting to go back and look at these narratives. One thing that disappeared is Hollywood from Russia. Not the Hittites, but these other pagans disappeared out of Russia. And there was a very long article on RT talking about how Hollywood had abandoned Russia a year ago, or the country's box office has just set a new all-time record. And I thought that was a very interesting issue. And this is happening in country after country where people, instead of this corrupt, destructive

culture that is being sold out of Hollywood. People said, for various reasons, many times it was authoritarian governments censoring the content and the rest of it. But once they started developing their own film industry, it exploded when they started doing movies about their culture, their beliefs, and other things like that. We see that happening even with Christian movies. People start making movies, and I don't mean that they're necessarily making movies about Jesus or whatever, biblical times.

But if they do movies that have a Christian backing, whether they're talking about adoption or pro-life or this or that, or just struggles that people are going through. You see these things have become incredibly successful for a small budget because people are just sick and tired of the filth coming out of Hollywood, and that's on an international level. And as they start to look at this, they said, well, you know, in India and France and China and other places, Iran, they're very authoritarian in most cases, these different countries. Not so much as from what I

understand, that's not the basis of it in India, but in Iran and China and other places, that is the basis of it. Explicitly in France, demanding domestic content and penalizing foreign content and subsidizing domestic film industry. I don't think that's a good thing, but the bottom line is that they understand that they're going to lose their culture, and we don't understand that in America. And I played you the, I did the music for a musical break for the Sons of Liberty.

But when I was going through pulling up the visuals for it, and I'll play that here for you in a second. When I was pulling up the visuals for the music, Johnny Tremaine was where the song was, Sons of Liberty, Liberty Tree. And I came across this thing and i just put it in at the front of the of the break it was one of these you were there history lessons when i was in school done by cbs walter cronkite would introduce it you know as if he was coming in and covering a new breaking news story or something like that and um and it was just appalling to me to see what has happened. When you look at Disney

and you look at CBS, how they are set against America, set against our culture. They want to tell the stories. They want to tell the history. And they're rewriting the stories of our past. They're rewriting the history. They're rewriting our culture. They're changing the standards of right and wrong. It's like, why can't we do that? We don't deserve to have our own culture. They're changing the standards of right and wrong. It's like, why can't we do that? We don't deserve to have our own culture. If we let other people tell our stories, we won't have our own culture. So how did these countries escape the grip of Hollywood, says RT. How far has Russia traveled in this direction over the past year? And long before they get to Russia, they talk about, well, they do say, you know, over the last year with these sanctions and everything, you've had Paramount, Warner, Netflix, Amazon, Marvel, Disney all stopped releasing films in Russia.

And they suspended access to their streaming platforms. What a blessing. This is like me. This is like, uh, you know, Trump and Fauci shutting the schools down and DeSantis and all the rest of it. Yeah. They all shut the schools down. I was like, that's great. Now we get to see what it looks like. Now we get to try the alternative and now Russia got to try the alternative. Let's create our own. And with that, they had record box office. Along with U.S. motion picture companies, several Western European studios also left Russia. However, within a year, it became evident that they're more dependent on the Russian market than their U.S. counterparts. One example is the French cinema company,

Pathé, if I'm pronouncing that correctly, it's P-A-T-H-E with a accent mark on it. I don't know if I'm pronouncing it, but I see that all the time. It's a very famous media company. They announced in early December that they would be returning. And so they said, uh, you know, the question is why does Hollywood dominate the world's cinema? Well, it's very carefully done. If you stop and think about it. You know, the way the movies are set up, they typically always make sure they've got a happy ending, right? They focus test these things with the audiences and multiple endings with them. It's a very careful propaganda machine.

You know, as I've mentioned before, the book Blake Snyder's Save the Cat, it talks about how the optimal time is 90 minutes, and they set a pace, and they even call it beats. And at this amount of time, you introduce the characters, you introduce the world that they're living in, you have fun and games at the beginning to get everybody introduced, and then you introduce at a certain time, uh, conflicts. And another time you,

there's all these conflicts and the crisis comes to a head, the dark night of the soul even labels these things. And then you have the resolution of all of it. It's all a pattern and it works very careful pattern. And so we have somebody like Terry Gilliam do Brazil, which is his sarcastic take on 1984 that I've talked about a lot. It was too long. It didn't have a happy ending.

They actually cut another ending, the studio did. They called it the Love Conquers All ending. Give you an idea where it is. And he knew they were going to butcher his film up and make it into a standard Hollywood film. And so he released it, had it screen in LA and in New York at a couple of, uh, uh, almost private screenings. I guess it was private screenings. He just had some film critics show up and had them write about it in order to try to head off the studio at the pass and not have them mess with this movie.

But it is very, very carefully done. And, of course, this movie was not a hit. It was just really good. I'm surprised when I see certain things like The Days of Wine and Roses. I saw that movie when I was like six or seven. I forget when it came out. But it was one of the most powerful movies I've ever seen. I didn't come from a family where anybody drank alcohol.

And I didn't really know about that. I knew independently of somebody who had married into the family, an in-law, who struggled with alcoholism and had been put into detox many times and tried to kick it and was unable to kick it. So I heard the horror stories about that, but I had never even seen the guy. It was my dad's cousin's husband. And so I'd never seen any of that stuff. And the song was so beautiful, The Days of Wine and Roses, and my family, oh, let's go see that.

That sounds like a great, it was in black and white. And this is a time when there was already a lot of color movies out. So I really wasn't very interested in it. It was a drama, but you know, hey. So I go along and it was, they hated it. It was very depressing. My sons always hated that movie.

I've tried to get them to watch it. Travis is shaking his head yes over there. And but it was really powerful for me. It was not a happy ending. It was very realistic about Jack Lemmon getting addicted to alcohol and bringing in Lee Remick, his girlfriend. and she gets addicted. And one of them gets off of it and the other one is still on it.

And then, you know, brings that other one, you know, the one who got off the wagon, brings them back in and then they fall off the wagon. And then they, you know, they're doing this with each other, subverting each other. And the way the movie ends, you know, he's gotten out of that addiction and he's sober, but she's trapped in it. And, uh, it was a real frightening film and for me, and it had a big positive influence on my life. You know, films, even from Hollywood can have a big, uh, impact on people, uh, a positive impact on people, but that's not the way it's being done now.

And we need to think about this seriously. Now, they go on and talk about this. I thought it was interesting. You look at the different countries and how important film is in terms of a culture and a society and setting the tone in society. This is one of the reasons why the Franklin School was so dedicated to going to Hollywood so they could sell their Marxist ideas through the movies and other things. So it has been, we're naive in the extreme if we think that Hollywood doesn't have an agenda. And a big part of this agenda is sexual. A big part of this is satanic.

And I've seen it when I've talked to studio heads about, hey, you know, you got the DVDs out here. You got the possibility of doing airline films. So from somebody wants to see an airline version of this without all the gratuitous sex scenes or violence or something like that, they can pick what they don't want to see. I don't want to see the violence. I don't want to see the sex scene or whatever. You can branch around it just like you do when they make these airplane versions. And so early on, we were carrying DVDs. And I talked to at a trade show where a guy was giving a presentation trying to get video stores to carry DVDs. And I said to him, I said, you know, what's the possibility of doing this? And he said, never going to do that.

He said, the directors hate it when we make airline versions of this stuff. And that same studio, a couple months later, put out a version of two different versions. But what they did was they took an R-rated movie and they made it into a hard X by adding stuff in. So you could watch the original R-rated, but you could watch something that's more degenerate. And the directors are fine with that. Fine with it so china is dictating its own rules to hollywood such as no mention of our slave labor camps in the simpsons remember you know disney putting out these radical angry cartoons about the proud family and you know we're based on slavery in amer, but then short passing reference as a joke about the slave labor camps in China.

And that gets taken out by Disney because they own The Simpsons. They own everything pretty much now. So in 2017, 14 out of the top 25 movies in Chinese box office were shot in the United States. In 2019, 12 years later, only eight. So they went from 14 to eight. A lot of domestic production there. All remaining 17 movies were Chinese by that time. In addition, box office receipts grew from 800 million to 9.2 billion in 10 years.

More than tenfold in 10 years. China has been able to dictate its own rules to Hollywood due to its volume. The Chinese market has become so important for Hollywood that U.S. film companies are ready to adapt to the requirements. And the Chinese censorship is unique because they exercise it in a way that it affects what everybody in the entire world sees. That was one of the things about Tom Cruise's Top Gun. He refused to edit the emblem on his jacket that showed something about Taiwan.

In 2020, at the insistence of the Disney offices in China, a kissing scene between the main character and her beloved was cut from the movie Mulan. I guess that was a live-action film. I guess they redid that. They did that thing back in the 90s, I think, the original. Anyway, the decision was made so Chinese viewers would not consider this plot twist to be disrespectful

to the original myth. And none of the three Ts, Tibet, Taiwan, or Tiananmen, will be shown in the movies. In 2016, in order to placate Chinese audiences, the Tibetan ethnicity of one of the characters in the Marvel film, Doctor Strange, was changed. China doesn't just fail to recognize the independence of Tibet, but they deny its very existence. The failing career of actor Richard Gere, who was a friend of the Dalai Lama, who was an active supporter of Tibetan independence,

is also linked to Chinese censorship. Gere has long been persona non grata at the Academy Awards, the Oscars, after he publicly criticized China's policy at the event in 1993. And his career has gone straight down since then. You see, when we look at Hollywood today and all this cancel culture, what we've done is we've imported their culture, their censorship, and the rest of it. And they have a very strong agenda that they want to sell. I mean, just look at the hatred for our propaganda campaign and attempted to take over our entertainment.

And yet it's coming from Disney from the inside. I haven't heard DeSantis say anything about that. Anyway, Iran doing very well at film festivals despite isolation. And they made an interesting point. They said there is a paradoxical link between censorship, which is very heavy in Iran, and the development of cinematic language. Having no chance to say things directly, the authors will find a way to enrich their movie with symbols and with metaphors. They said this has been a very powerful thing for Iranian films,

especially outside of their country because of language barriers and that type of thing. For example, we can take many movies on the subject of the Iran-Iraq war. Iranian directors manage to shoot unique war films without showing bloodshed and violence on the screen. Of course, this is something that's always been there. You look at Gulliver's travels with, you know, Swift, who wrote that, uh, metaphorical criticism of the government done in a, in a story. Uh, so it actually, uh, enhances, you know, what they do. And, um, they go on in this very long article to talk about France,

about India, about South Korea, about Nigeria. Nigeria's got a thriving film business. And then, of course, about Russia because it's a Russian thing. And so the question is, when are Americans going to take back our culture? When are Christians going to take back our culture? That's what audiences want to see. People don't like what Hollywood is putting out. I mean, it's not just the pandemic. There's nothing that you want to see. People don't like what Hollywood is putting out. I mean, it's not just the pandemic.

There's nothing that you want to see there, me or any of my friends. There's absolutely no way I'm interested in paying to see any of that stuff. The movies that people want to see are not being made. The movies that have uplifting stories that talk about character, that have an interesting plot to them. They're not being made. It's amazing to me that the absolute death of our culture, the death of art, the only thing that has advanced in the last decade or so has been special effects.

It's really sad. So here's, again, here's the Sons of Liberty. Just take a look at the beginning of this. This is the kind of thing that was shown for educational purposes in the schools when I was a kid. Unlike most revolutions, where the people rise against a real economic oppression, in our case here in Boston, we are fighting for purely an abstract principle. Hear, hear! It is, however, not nearly so abstract as the young gentleman supposes. The issue involved here is one of monopoly. Today, the British government will monopolize the sale of tea in our country. Tomorrow, it will be something else. ¶¶ liberty it's your move you're listening to the david knight show

that's right liberty is our move and yet i don't see the movements towards it you know from us or from especially from our elected representatives take a look at this in mississippi republicans and the majority have killed a vaccine religious exemption bill for school kids wow wow it seems like there's somebody else who said. People, my people are so smart. And you know what else they said? They have to get the shot. The vaccinations are so important. This is really going around now.

They have to get their shot. Yeah, they got to get the shots. It's so important. It's going around. That other Republican. Or is he a rhino? I think he's a rhino, actually. Republican name only.

So Republican leaders in Mississippi have again killed a bill that would require religious exemption for school vaccine mandates. And it's not just one bill. They had seven. This is Republican leadership in Mississippi. So you got the Republican legislators there introduced seven bills, and they were all shot down by the republican leadership there that's how it works that's why our two-party system is a failure it's too easy to shut down with uh you know they've got the thing set up so that a few people that are in charge of the republican senate and house or if they're in charge of the Republican Party, they can make sure they shut down candidates that don't see the light of day. We had seven bills authored this year to give parents a religious exemption

from childhood vaccines in order to attend school or daycare, said Vance Cox with Mississippi Parents for Vaccine Rights. This is a report, by the way, from LifeSite News. The two that we were pushing, one in the Senate and one in the House, the Senate bill would have required school vaccination exemptions for anyone who swears or affirms that the immunization required conflicts with a religious belief to the parent or guardian. Both of those bills would have done that. And so Cox alleges that Senator David Blunt, a Republican, killed a religious exemption bill and that Richard Bennett, the House Education Committee chairman, took the Hopkins exemption

bill off of the agenda. The state remains one of the few under Republican control that does not offer a religious exemption for vaccination. As it stands, Mississippi is one of six states out of 50, and the only red state that does not offer this religious freedom by way of childhood vaccination exemption, so the American Family Association. It shows you just how out of step they are. Only six states that do not allow a religious exemption for vaccines.

And it's the only Republican-controlled state that does it. And yet we had a Republican president who said, yeah, you got to get those shots. No exemptions. And the context of that was no religious exemptions for people who are kids who are attending a private religious school. You will not get a religion. You got to get the shot. It's going around. How out of step are these Republican leaders, including Trump?

Even liberal Massachusetts allows vaccine religious exemptions. But, you know, not California, not New York. I think New York was the one where they were pushing that through. A WHO official calls for increased surveillance to help end the COVID emergency. Wait a minute, I thought it was over. Didn't Biden tell us it was over? Didn't he say it's going to be over in a couple of months when the Republicans came up with a bill saying,

we're going to end this? No, no, I'll end it. Just give me some time. Let me end it. So in order to end the supposedly ongoing COVID emergency, the WHO shared on Sunday a video in which a physician, Maria Van Kerkhove, who also serves as the organization's Emerging Diseases Unit, offered a litany of COVID responses and recommendations.

So have you ever heard of this person before? I hadn't heard of her before. So that means that we haven't voted for her either, right? Just like I didn't vote for Fauci or Francis Collins. I didn't vote for the local health officials that are put in there. I didn't vote for any of these people. They're not accountable to me. I can't remove them.

Why do they have a say-so in what's going on? Where are the Republicans to end this? How about giving us an exemption, not just for religious purposes, how about giving us an exemption from a foreign organization that wants to exercise dictatorial powers over us and is intent on doing it. And it's not just a treaty, but it's the way that they've changed the rules. Why are we associated at all with the WHO? As a matter of fact, I think we need to have a campaign.

The end the who. Don't get fooled again. Right. Uh, so we want to end this emergency in every country on the planet. She said in 2023, and we can do this. So what we're all at, what we're asking all the member States, all countries around the world to do is to look at what needs to be adjusted. We need to strengthen the systems in countries around surveillance. DNA sequencing. Clinical care pathways. You see?

DNA sequencing. They've got to have biometric IDs on us as well. Got to have full ID, full surveillance. And it's just amazing. Everything these people do. Whether it's, oh, we've got to have central bank digital currency. We've got to save the planet. Everything that they do, we've got to have biometric control and surveillance for everything.

So we want to end the emergency in every country on the planet in 2023. Guess what? It never was a problem in Africa. They never played the pandemic game. They were just fine and are still fine. And that's the big outlier that people need to show how these people are lying to us. So the WHO has persistently called for the use of public health surveillance. And again, right now, you notice she said, so what we're asking member states to do,

what we're asking member states to do. The whole point about this rule change that James Roguski has done a great deal of research on and has helped to, done a fantastic job of making it public. So in fact, they don't want to have to ask people anymore. They want to be able to demand it. They want to make it legally binding. And that's even before you get to the treaty part. They want legally binding language in there.

And I hear nothing but crickets from the Republicans about this. So the WHO has persistently called for the use of public health surveillance. They want it to be, quote, continuous, systematic collection of health data before any disease outbreak. To serve as an early warning. This is because, you know, we locked our country down. Nobody sick or died. They didn't even claim that anybody had died from COVID. And Trump was locking down the borders. They were doing everything else.

The WHO considers contact tracing, including with digital tools, an essential public health tool for controlling the disease. And, of course, so does the world economic forfeiture or the world economic foreclosure, as one listener put it. So do those people. It's absolutely essential for them to do that. They came up with a common pass system, a common passport. The whole scheme is copied by an implement.

It's not a complicated thing to do in terms of the coding. So it was copied by everybody, but it was the Davos crowd that came up with that as a pattern. So they want continuous, systematic collection of all information about us, all of our health data. And I got to say, you have to understand at this point, there's no way to avoid a direct confrontation with these people. So let's do it sooner than later. Let's do it on our terms. Because these people and their policies

have to be shut down. We have to have a tea party about public health. We need to take their regulations, put them in some boxes and throw them into the sea and say, here's what you can do with your pandemic.

Where are the people who were going to do this? Where are the leaders who are going to do this? Oh, again, you know, it's time. It is past time. You know, for the last 1069 days, I've been saying, why are we putting up with this stuff? This is far worse than any of the things that the British ever did to our forefathers. She went on to say she exhorted the world to give hospitalized patients ventilation in order to save lives.

I said, well, this is a LifeSite News article and they got this right. So she said, we got to prioritize vaccination of the 100% at-risk groups. So telling us the same lies that they've told us for the last 1,069 days. And as LifeSite points out, and I'm glad that they did, the practice of ventilation alone is highly controversial. Data shows that patients over 65 were more than 26 times as likely to survive in the New York City area if they were not placed on mechanical ventilators. Who was it that was pushing that so hard? Oh, yeah, that was Donnie again.

Benedict Donald. He was, remember how he berated General Motors for not producing enough of these things? Ford did it for me, but I told GM to stop producing cars and start making these ventilators, and they didn't do it. And yet, Pandemic Nurse, who I interviewed, she wrote a book about this. She said, hey, I was in Florida and hearing about how bad this is, but I wasn't seeing it in the hospital. So I was like, well, let me go to New York and I'll help people up there. They need me up there. They don't need me here.

You know, we've got a lot of time on our hands. We've got TikTok nurses doing dances in the hallways and stuff like that. So let me go to New York. I'm serious. I want to help people. Put my life on the line for that, she was told. So she goes up there and she reports in. Several days pass.

They don't do anything about it. Finally, they bring her in, and she says she sees a lot of people on the ventilators, and the doctor who's taking her around says, most of these people die. It doesn't help them. Over 80-plus percent of these people die on these ventilators. We let them get really bad. We put them on the ventilators. The ventilators kill them. Twenty-six times more likely to survive if you're not put on one of these ventilators kill them. 26 times more likely to survive if you're not put on one of these ventilators that Dr. Trump put out. It isn't an emergency anymore. Most people question that it ever was. When are we going to stop this scaremongering?

Well, we're not because it was always about politics, and it remains about politics. A lockdown, the emergency was always political. So, uh, again, you know, let's have a, let's have a don't get fooled again bill where we get rid of the who, uh, that's house Republicans are pressing the department of defense for answers on the vaccine mandate reversal and what has been done about this. Remember they put this into the, um, this into the funding bill that they had, and the Biden administration and Pentagon first ignored it.

Now they have pretended to comply in some regards. But you've got Mike Rogers, Jim Bakes, who are now on the House Armed Services Committee and the subcommittee on military personnel. They wrote letters to the Pentagon asking about their plan to implement the vaccine mandate reversal and the damage that's been done to the military and to troops in particular. The military at large as an institution, and individual troops. They wrote again, they said, A letter of December 23rd requested your plan to implement this statutory requirement. Your four-sentence reply to the letter on January 26th failed to include any implementation plan. Additionally, staff has repeatedly asked for answers to many COVID-19 rescission questions,

critically important to the retention and recruitment of men and women in each of the armed services. Austin, in a memo rescinding his vaccine mandate, said commanders could still make decisions based on vaccination status, remember? Such as deployments and left it unclear whether the DOD would force out members who did not apply for a religious or medical exemption when the mandate was in effect from August 2021 through January 2023. And so they got a lot of questions about that and again from a practical standpoint if you have commanders exercising their prerogative because it's maybe not a written rule but maybe it's understood that their superior wants this to happen because their superiors superior wants it to happen all the way up to austin uh don't deploy these people if they're not vaccinated

well that's going to be basically the end of their career, the way that they are ostracized and excluded. That's going to be the end of their career for all practical purposes. So they reiterated their request. They asked for the number of troops, discharges broken down by rank and years of service, the date they were discharged, as well as the discharge characterization. Was it honorable?

Was it general under honorable? That type of thing. They also inquired about whether service members had to pay back recruitment bonuses if they were forced out, how much they have repaid, and whether they would have to repay it, and if so, how much has have repaid, and whether they would have to repay it, and if so, how much has been repaid. They also asked how many National Guard members missed drill time due to the mandate and how much time they missed.

Again, this is a way of pushing them out. They also inquired about the policy at service academies, like West Point Naval Academy, things like that, whether any students who were disciplined under the mandate would have their records cleared or be allowed to graduate. They asked whether the DOD has reinstated any service members forced out under the vaccine and it's planned to ensure that reinstatement is offered to any separated service members. They requested answers by February the 21st. So these things are giving

each other a month to reply to these things. And so, you know, they sent out a detailed request in December. The Pentagon came back with a four sentence answer a month later. So they're giving them another month to reply to this. They appear to be trying to use every type of subtle subterfuge to not comply with it. And then let's take a look at where this is all headed. Kenyan babies are being used as test subjects in a biometric-based vaccine tracking system. This is from Freethought Project. Actually, it's from Reclaim the Net originally. Maybe this is why Africa doesn't take the jabs.

Maybe this is why when you go into some of these villages, they chase these people with their hypodermic needles out. And again, Africa weathered this so-called worldwide pandemic just fine, especially because they didn't get the vaccines. So in a hospital in a small town in Kenya, 1,000 kids as part of an experiment. And this is about biometric tracking a vaccine. So they want to get a biometric identification on the kids.

And we had the experiment of 500 kids in Mexico also being done with this, not just in Africa, but it was being run by some of the same people who were doing this. And it was the company NEC was involved in both of these studies, the one using the Mexican kids, the one using the thousand babies in Kenya, in both of these, one of the things that NEC was working on was how old can we, what is the accuracy of our biometric data? Is it accurate if we get it when they're one or two days old? And they found that if they got it before four days old, it was only 72% accurate. But if they waited until four days, the biometric information they could get on babies was 96% accurate. Why do they need to have that? Why indeed?

Well, it's about slavery, isn't it? This is a system of slavery that's being put in place. They see you as inventory. They're going to track you and identify you. They're going to do it globally. Again, Mexico, Kenya, everywhere. This is being done everywhere. And it is a system of slavery that they're putting us in, that they're putting our kids in, to track them all throughout their life. And they want us to fight over slavery that ended 160 years ago, while we don't pay attention to the new system of high-tech slavery. A wireless prison, if you will. An open-air wireless prison.

The new method aims to ensure that as soon as a child is born, they get their first vaccine, and they get biometric scanning of four of their fingers, in addition to fingerprinting the babies. And they also have biometric voice data collected that they can use later on. Isn't that interesting? The purpose of this is to monitor identities

and to manage their vaccination history. See, this is, look at how this is two sides of the same coin. They had to lock us down, and then they had to make sure that we got the vaccination, so they came up with a vaccine passport and vaccine ID and all the rest of this stuff. Now they're grabbing the kids at an early age and putting biometric identification on them so they can vaccinate them.

These two things go hand in hand. They're two different sides of the same coin, if you will, right? You had Bill Gates, his ID 2020 to give a global ID to everybody, right? And then he had IA 2030, immunization agenda. 2030, by 2030, everyone, everywhere, every age vaccinated, presumably with every vaccine they can imagine. And so what they're doing in Nigeria, they say, well, we want to get this biometric identification on these babies

and make sure that we get them in the first 24 months of life, we get them eight shots. That's way more than we used to have, isn't it? But guess what we get in the U.S.? By the first two years, we don't get eight shots like they get in Nigeria. We get 28 shots, more than three times. Three and a half times, as a matter of fact. And by the age of 18, Americans have been given 54 vaccines. And that's before you start to add in all the new ones that they just came up with and all the boosters for the mRNA vaccines.

54 shots by the time you're age 18. That's according to CDC. Some people put it in as 72, but it may be that high, but it is definitely 54. And just in the first two years, 28 in the U S but eight in Nigeria, biometric authentication company,

NEC, along with the Kenya Institute and Nagasaki University from Japan, are the ones who partnered to develop this program. They did this back in 2019 because, you know, Bill Gates is probably funding them as well with his ID 2020, one way or the other. The program is pitched as supporting the UN's sustainable development goals. You see, this is, they want the smart city prisons,

and this is how they want to identify us from birth. Global biometric ID. They say they want to provide legal identity and birth registration for everyone so they can end preventable deaths. And yet, sudden infant death syndrome is really the consequence of their vaccine programs. We're going to take a quick break. We'll be right back and talk about the balloon UFO fears. We'll be right back. Thank you. The End you're listening to the david knight show well uh this is i guess a call out to uh geesebusters geesebusters this is from babble and be a goose is getting suspicious

that this f18 is following him. That wild-eyed F-18 pilot just made the same high-G roll maneuver behind me for the third time in a row. I think I'm being tailed, he said. Through a translator and a series of honks and hisses and quacks, pressure has mounted among NORAD and Air Force rank and file to get a trophy kill or to, quote, get me a UFO souvenir. To show all the boys back home in Louisiana what I'm capable of doing. The Pentagon has confirmed suspicious that some of their most unscrupulous pilots may have attempted to fabricate UFO shootings by blasting wildlife out of the air. And then there was this great video of a dog fight

between the spy balloon and the U.S. jet. It's got some Asian characters on it. I wonder if it was the Chinese who put this thing together. Pretty good special effects. Watch this. Evasive maneuvers by the balloon Yeah, and at the end, it turns around and comes out. I should have put in the sound from Rover from The Prisoner. The balloon comes back at him. You know,

that's the way they use the robotic guardian there in the village. Uh, and it, it turned out it was just a weather balloon on a string. Maybe that's what this was. I don't know, but, um,

it turns into a suicidal attack there at the very end of it. Now the white house has come out and said, there is no indication of aliens. And yet they're playing this cat and mouse game with everybody to keep this in the spotlight. The question becomes why? Everybody is suspicious of what they're doing, and rightfully so. Why wouldn't we be suspicious of everything this government is doing? What started out as a Chinese spy balloon shot down February 4th over South Carolina has rapidly escalated to talk of aliens.

On Sunday, the head of NORAD said the Pentagon can't rule out a spate of unidentified objects shot out of the sky over the past week. It can't rule out the fact that it might be extraterrestrial. Well, I'll tell you what. Why don't you guys at NORAD get your act together here and give us a plausible story about 9-11? You know, it was Gore Vidal who said, my father put that system together. And I know that if you got jets that are flying around like that, they would have scrambled the planes immediately. That's just one of the many questions we have about nine 11.

Uh, but, um, yeah, uh, we can now shoot down balloons. As a matter of fact, you know, they struggled doing that reported back in the nineties. They had one incident. They had jets who tried to shoot down plane. It was American British. And I think it was maybe Canadian jets or something like three of them. They, they failed to shoot it down. They said it can be difficult to shoot them down with bullets. I guess that's why they got to use a half million dollar missile each time. Because you shoot these balloons with bullets. They're pretty large balloons. You put a hole in it, it's going to start leaking and coming down, but it'd take a long time for the thing to come down.

So he says, yeah, we cannot rule out the fact that it might be extraterrestrial in nature. He said, I'll let the intel community and the counterintelligence community figure that out. Well, these are the people who were lying to us about everything, constantly creating distractions and lies about weapons of mass balloon destruction. We've not been able to identify how the three latest objects, however, have been able to stay aloft, he said. So now he starts throwing this out. Like, you know, they'll call them balloons, then they'll say they're not balloons. And, you know, these things, as I pointed out yesterday, they identified some of them. One

of them was octagonal. Another one was a cylindrical object. They engaged our pilots and messed with their sensors and things like that. He said, we've not been able to identify how the three latest objects have been able to stay aloft. We're calling them objects and not balloons for a reason. So his commiss, the leader of NORAD, came after a U.S. F-16 fighter jet, shot down an unidentified object hovering at 20,000 feet over Lake Huron on Sunday, the third such downing in three days, and the most recent military strike in an unprecedented chain of events over North America. The object was described as unmanned octagonal structure with potential surveillance capabilities and strings attached to it.

Okay, so now we got an alien spaceship that's come from the outer reaches of the universe with strings attached to it. And they're making a lot of hints about it being aliens. And so this came up in the White House press conference, and this is the response. Make sure we address this from the White House. I know there have been questions and concerns about this, but there is no, again, no indication of aliens or extraterrestrial activity with these recent takedowns. Again, there is no indication of aliens or terrestrial activity with these recent takedowns, again, there is no indication of aliens or terrestrial activity with these recent takedowns. Wanted to make sure that the American people knew that, all of you knew that, and it was important for us to say that from here because we've been hearing a lot about it.

Okay, now I'm worried. If Corinne Jean-Pierre is telling us that there's nothing to this, I would go the opposite direction maybe. I don't know. So the NORAD commander said, I don't know. Uh, so the NORAD commander said, unlike the Chinese spy balloon, all three UFOs gunned down over the weekend were of a similar size and speed. So again,

he keeps putting this out in contradiction to the white house and white house denial. Air force general added that after the Chinese balloon incident, the U S had to adjust its radar to be able to track slower objects. Said, we may have missed an untold number of UFOs in the past, but in the last 72 hours, we've revealed to the public what has been happening for years, says Marco Rubio. He's now jumping into this spotlight.

Of note, a June report to Congress in 2021 noted 144 sightings by U.S. military aviators dating back to 2004. Meanwhile, 366 additional sightings were noted in a January report from the Office of Director of National Intelligence. Most of them are things like drones, birds, balloons, other airborne clutter. So I like the cartoon that has been floating around 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023. Got the same guy with the mesmerized eyes in the cartoon. And in 2020, the hypnotist is dangling in front of him like a pocket watch a corona ball then in 2021 it's a vaccine hypodermic needle then in 2022 it's the ukraine flag and then in 2023 it's a little ufo that he's dangling back and forth to hypnotize him some of these uncharacterized UAPs appear to have demonstrated an unusual flight characteristic or performance capabilities and require further analysis, reads the DNI

report. So again, they keep saying everything other than this is an alien spacecraft. Well, it has interesting characteristics and performance capabilities. It is jamming our instruments. I'm not calling a balloon for obvious reasons. I'm calling it an object and all the rest of this stuff. So they are doing everything other than screaming flying saucer. So that said, the Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence and Security told reporters in December, he hasn't seen anything indicating an alien visit.

I have not seen anything in those holdings to date that would suggest that there's been an alien visitation, an alien crash, or anything like that, he said. So again, we're talking about extraterrestrial life. Is there extraterrestrial life? Well, the atheists are convinced of it, right? That's why they have the search for extraterrestrial life, SETI and all the rest of this stuff. Atheists, those who believe in molecules to man evolution, think that because there's so many planets, because the universe is so vast and infinite in extent and infinite in time that it's got to be certain that that exists.

It's the same argument that people like Richard Dawkins and others have used to say, well, yeah, of course. Evolution is going to be occurring here. It's going to be occurring everywhere else because we have an infinite number of places and an infinite number of times it's going to happen. Will it? That is such a sophomoric understanding. Look, if I've got a group of bricks laying on the ground and I sit there and watch these things, they're not going to assemble into a building. And it doesn't matter if I sat there for eternity. And it doesn't matter if I've got a million different piles of bricks.

I'm not going to get a single building out of those bricks. Got a comment from Hobbits 52. It's a releasing of trial balloons to see what takes hold. Yeah, and here I thought it was just a focus group expression. A Rand Corporation study, yeah. But, you know, you got a pile of bricks and it doesn't matter

how many of these piles of bricks, they're not going to assemble themselves into a building, even if you got eternity to do it. Crick and Watson understood that when they saw DNA. They were prejudiced against God, so they said, well, this is panspermia.

This is obviously designed. You can't deny that DNA is a designed code. It's a very specific code. All life, all plant life, all animal life, same code, same designer. It reproduces. It even has error correction built into it in the way that it works. And as you start to look in other aspects of the body, as many people who talk about intelligent design will point out,

you see factory inside of factory. You see machines inside of machines inside of machines. And so Cr you know, Crick and Watson understood that, the discoverers of the DNA, and yet they want to deny the God of the Bible. We know, if we read the Bible, we know that there is extraterrestrial life, right? No doubt about it. And so, the atheists believe there's extraterrestrial life. We believe that there is extraterrestrial life. Question is, what is it? In what form?

Well, if you believe the Bible, you know, God, his angels, Satan, his angels, all extraterrestrial. How will they reveal themselves to us? When you look at all this, a lot of people are saying, well well the government is into hoaxes and they're going to pull something maybe project a blue beam or something that you know you know to project up an event that everybody can witness um i don't know i i do think that uh how how could we not say that there's some kind of a distraction some kind of a deception in order here we not say that there's some kind of a distraction, some kind of a deception in order here?

We have seen that constantly, especially in the last three years. Let me just go back to 9-11, go back to the war that we're talking about in Iraq and all the rest of this stuff, Afghanistan, all of this. It is always about deception. So will the deception be coming from the government? Or will it be coming from the government? Or will it be coming from Satan directly, who typically works through governments? Who knows if it's going to come?

There's an article on vaccine impact. It says, are UFO, quote-unquote, sightings preparing the public for energy weapons of mass destruction as happened in Turkey and in Syria? He says a lot of people are writing him saying, well, they didn't think that the earthquake in Turkey and Syria was natural, but the result of some kind of energy weapon. I don't know about that. Or whether it's HARPS. We had the same thing said about the Fukushima earthquake.

And alternative media says HARPS has been responsible for other disasters and earthquakes, the high-quency Active Oral Research Program. I don't know. I can't verify that. I'll leave that to Stu Peters to grab headlines talking about that type of thing. But the reality is that you're talking about high-energy directed energy weapons. Even going back to the late 80s to the was it the late 80s or early 90s when we invaded panama i don't know it was during the the bush administration so it would

have been sometime between 80 89 and 93 i remember a documentary film came out panama deception it was narrated by elizabeth montgomery who played um you know and bewitched and uh they had pictures of melted cars they said what did this come from um and people they collected uh testimony saying it was an explosion in a fire that showed that melted cars they claimed that it was directed weapons even at that time so what kind of equipment what kind of aircraft does the U.S. government have? What will they do to run PSYOPs on us? Well, that's the key thing. We are all asking these questions.

So you've got LiveSite News saying, is the latest UFO talk a government PSYOP to threaten our freedom? Because the government is constantly running PSY psyop to threaten our freedom? Because the government is constantly running psyops to threaten our freedom and to push their agenda as well. Kong, 1976. 1938, Orson Welles convinced many people aliens were invading in this War of the Worlds broadcast. Think he could do it now?

Oh, yeah. Get on social media. Produce a couple of videos yeah that was a classic case of that wasn't it uh so uh live site news which is a catholic site quotes a catholic commentator daniel o'connor who said his theory is that the push to mandate these covid jabs and the excitement over ufos and aliens could be a precursor to the coming of the Antichrist. I told the interviewer there, John Henry Weston at LifeSite News, what's been happening to these UFO deceptions, these alien deceptions? He said that might constitute the great final trial of

the church. Of course, that's true. I don't know what the Catholic eschatology is about that, but it is true. And it is something that I've always told my sons for the last 25 years. So I said, look, I really do believe they're going to play to the predictive programming and now a confirmation bias that they have been busy building in everybody's understanding since I was a kid. Films like The Day the Earth Stood Still, things like that. It's a constant thread throughout science fiction. Arthur C. Clarke, Childhood Send, I think was it, even posited the idea that combined religion with ufos

and that was done by um a company filmed that recently and and within the last few years i guess it's been about five or six years now uh charles dance was the guy who did it see if you can pull up some pictures of him. He comes to earth and he's, you know, the spaceships and they've got this cloven feet and red body and, you know, horns and everything. Like you would see these medieval predictions, depictions of Satan. And they say they come from a planet that's on fire, you know, like hell and all the rest of this stuff. And so they run that, but the whole point of it is to grab the children and take them away. But it was kind of interesting analogies that he had running throughout this. And of course, you know, indications of Arthur C. Clark not only coming up with the idea of communication satellites,

but also somebody who was a lot of rumors and accusations of him being a pedophile living in the South Pacific, but, um, you know, focusing on the kids, taking them away, but he combined, uh, the medieval mythology about Satan and his appearance with space aliens to bring them all together. Uh, so would it manifest itself that way or in some other way? I thought it was interesting that Ronald Reagan, on at least three different occasions, talked about a UFO revelation that would unify the world,

essentially into a one world government. He's not talking about that. He's saying to unify us into peace. So we stop fighting each other and fight them. That's what he's saying. I couldn't help at one point in my discussions privately with General Secretary Gorbachev, when you stop to think that we're all God's children wherever we may live in the world, I couldn't help but say to him, just think how easy his task and mine might be in these meetings that we held if suddenly there was a threat to this world from some other species from another planet outside in the

universe. We'd forget all the little local differences that we have between our countries, and we would find out once and for all that we really are all human beings here on this earth together well I don't suppose we can wait for some alien race to come down and threaten us but I think that between us we can bring about that realization in our obsession with antagonisms of the moment, we often forget how much unites all the members of humanity. Perhaps we need some outside universal threat to make us recognize this common bound. I occasionally think how quickly our differences worldwide would vanish if we were facing an alien threat from outside this world. And yet, I ask you, is not an alien force already among us? What could be more alien to the universal aspirations of our peoples than war and the threat of war?

I think maybe I'd answer it this way. I keep in my frustration sometimes, you know, actually, if you count some of the things going on in smaller countries and all, there have been about 114 wars since World War II. But I've often wondered, what if all of us in the world discovered that we were threatened by an outer power from outer space, from another planet?

Wouldn't we all of a sudden find that we didn't have any differences between us at all? We were all human beings, citizens of the world. And wouldn't we come together to fight that particular threat? Yeah, let's come together as citizens of the world. Let's create a world government. I got to say, Ronald Reagan was a big part of my political wake up. We went from a big supporter of his to a disillusioned supporter of his. When you look at the Department of Education, many other things,

one of the things he said with the department of education, this is central for parents and families to have the say so about their children's education and candidate Reagan said, and for that reason, we got to get rid of the department of education yet. He made it, um, you know,

double the size of the thing during his eight years, instead of getting rid of it, it had just been created by Jimmy Carter. He ran against it as a candidate, but he pushes that through. So, yeah, we need to all come together, all citizens of the world. He made one of these speeches, at least one of them, was made at the United Nations. Reagan's reference to aliens may have been more than simply

the product of an imaginative actor's mind, because the story goes that one night in 1974, he himself may have seen a UFO while governor of California. He was one of four persons on board a Cessna Citation aircraft, along with pilot Bill Painter, two security guards. As the airplane approached Bakersfield, the passengers called Painter's attention to a strange object to their rear. Painter described it as follows. It appeared to be several hundred yards away.

It was a fairly steady light until it began to accelerate. Then it appeared to elongate. Then the light took off. It went up at a 45-degree angle at a high rate of speed. Everyone on the plane was surprised. The UFO went from a normal cruise speed to a fantastic speed instantly. If you give an airplane power, it will accelerate, but not like a hot rod. And that's what this was like.

The following week, Reagan described the sighting to Norman C. Miller, then Washington Bureau Chief for the Wall Street Journal. Reagan told Miller, he said, we followed it for several minutes. It was a bright white light. We followed it to Bakersfield. And all of a sudden, to our utter amazement, it went straight up into the heavens. Miller expressed some doubt. And according to Miller, a look of horror came over Reagan. It suddenly dawned on him that he was talking to a reporter.

Immediately afterwards, in Miller's word, Reagan clammed up. Well, you know, I understand when they're looking at these things and when they look at the, you know, the balloon things. You go back, as I mentioned the other day, you see these plaques. Here's one in Nebraska. I was surprised that the Japanese balloon bombs went that far inland. They just kind of at random, they would put a bomb on a balloon and send it to the US, an incendiary bomb, saying, well, let's just see where it falls.

But I was surprised that it went as far inland as Nebraska. So you do want to take some of these things seriously. However, the way that they're using this now in terms of talking about that, Johan Grimond-Prez talked about Reagan in 1987 in his speeches when he was addressing Gorbachev. He says the UFO crowd believed that his Star Wars initiative, he says once Gorbachev. He says the UFO crowd believed that his Star Wars initiative, he says, once Gorbachev said, well, let's just, let's liquidate our nuclear arsenals. Reagan said instead, no, let's have Star Wars. Let's have, which is what other people called it. He called it his strategic defense initiative. He also publicized it as a planetary defense shield against incoming Soviet ballistic missiles. But many UFO researchers, writes Johan, claimed differently.

In fact, Star Wars, they said, was only a public cover for a real mission, shooting starships out of the heavens in order to retro-engineer its foreign technology. Well, again, I don't accept that understanding of forces that are intelligent forces that are from beyond our world, perhaps operating in different dimensions as well, to be able to go from physical to pass into super high speed, whatever is involved in it. We could speculate about that. But we have to be careful how they're going to use these things, and we have to be careful about how they are using this balloon thing. We know exactly what our governments have been doing to try to conceal

and to spin the truth on many other areas. So, again, as Reagan would have said, trust but verify. We'll be right back. ¶¶ Thank you. Analyzing the globalist's next move. Music And now, The David Knight Show. A little bit about gun control and the efforts to control us in that area. We have Governor Greg Giamforte from Montana has said that the ATF pistol brace rule cannot be enforced in Montana. And we are seeing a lot of people who are pushing back on this. And that is a very healthy thing.

You have to understand just how dangerous this is. And again, it's a precedent based on what Trump did. Trump banned bump stocks by executive order. He said, I want to get these things. And so the people underneath him, his executive agency, the ATF, which is underneath the presidency, came up with rules to deny our rights that are protected under the Second Amendment. We have specific, our rights don't come from the Constitution, our rights come from God. We have specific prohibitions from the government against attacking those rights. And the purpose of government, according to the Declaration of Independence, is to protect our God-given rights.

So that is the purpose of government, to protect our rights. There are prohibitions against infringing, even coming around the edge, attacking them from the edge, the periphery, the fringe. You know, we always hear these people, oh, the radical fringe. Well, this is the radical fringe of gun control coming in from the edges. And so there are prohibitions against them doing that. But ultimately, it's going to be up to local officials who are going to stand in the gap and protect us

as to interpose against these infringements of people who break their oath to the constitution so it's good to see that happening it's good to see and just as we see in, uh, states like Illinois, uh, you have nearly all of the counties, the sheriffs that said, we're not going to enforce these new gun control regulations out of the state legislature. So, uh, you got top gun rights groups, two dozen states are all rushing to stop the ATF rule against pistol braces. Again, they're coming in with these attachments, things like bump stocks, things like pistol braces. And Trump set that precedent, and Biden is trying to use it.

He's already done it twice now. And Lala Harris had said right out. Trump is going to say he's gonna get rid of um bump stocks and um he didn't get any pushback from the nra he got pushback from gun owners of america on that because i understood the principle involved but um um you know once you do that with something that's inconsequential you know nra said well we're not going to fight over bump stocks or you know nothing of any consequence then they go to the next thing and they go to the next thing. And it will, if you leave this there, Lala Harris immediately came out and said, look, if I become

president within the first hundred days, I'm going to tell them, you know, get rid of, um, things she doesn't like AR-15s and stuff like that, modern sporting rifles. And if you don't do it within a hundred days, I'll do it by executive order. Where'd she get that idea? She got it from Trump. Because it was Trump, conservative groups stood down. The NRA stood down because it was Trump and because it was something that they didn't think was important. But the principle was important, and the precedent was important.

So, yeah, Kong says Trump pushed the ATF to have this new power. That's exactly where it came from. Top gun rights group and two dozen states are all rushing to stop this rule against pistol braces. So, again, it's about half of the states are saying, we're not going to enforce this. That is the key thing. It's going to be nullification, you see.

Nullification is the rightful way to respond to the government's overreach. If you try to secede, it's going to be war. They're going to attack anybody who tries to secede. But if you say, well, we're just not going to enforce that law, there is an anti-commandeering law. They cannot force states to follow their rules. And they're not laws, they're rules, which is another key dangerous aspect of this. But the way they get people to do it, of course, is with the money. They financially bribe them.

And then once they get used to that bribe, they blackmail them by saying, we'll take that money away if you don't do what we say. So the National Rifle Association has now gotten involved finally with a lawsuit. The Bureau is declaring that they will effectively decide on a case-by-case basis whether a firearm is subject to the National Firearms Act. Every American gun owner is in danger of potentially facing felony charges at the whims of these bureaucrats without any new statute being put in place. So the executive director for the NRA Institute for Legislative Action. Well, let me just say this. It's taken it to a new level, but there was never a legitimate gun control law.

The National Firearms Act, and I think it is, again, gun owners in America that has taken that on, said we need to repeal this thing. The National Firearms Act was unconstitutional because it infringed on people's rights to keep and bear arms. And it was also based on a phony case of a sawed-off shotgun, where the guy was even dead, and they continued on with the case even after the defendant had died because they wanted to establish this precedent, making the false claim that it was not a military weapon, a sawed-off shotgun-wise, and that the Second Amendment only protected military weapons.

No, it's not about protecting firearms. It's not about protecting guns. It's not about protecting guns. It's about protecting our rights to defend ourselves. And so even, you know, there is no provision for the legislature to do gun control unless they want to amend the Constitution. There is a process there for them to get rid of the Second Amendment. But unless they get rid of the Second Amendment, any gun control legislation is unconstitutional, even if it's done by Congress. So the NRA is joined in the lawsuit by 25 states, led by West Virginia Attorney General. And interestingly enough, I don't see Texas on this list. They've got them listed in alphabetical order.

They've got Tennessee there, but not Texas. Simultaneously to the NRA's suit, Gun Owners of America, oh, and here's where Texas comes in. Texas is in there with the and gun owners of America and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton have a separate legal challenge here. Senior Vice President Eric Pratt said millions of Americans are facing a very tight deadline to destroy or to register their lawfully owned property under this draconian new rule. We hope the court will hear the pleas of gun owners across the country who will be irrevocably harmed by this rule. Gun owners of America stands ready to fight at every turn. This rule will have some of the most wide-reaching impacts nationwide and the tyrannical history of gun control. And then Ken Paxton at Texas says, acts nationwide and the tyrannical history of gun control. So,

and then Ken Paxton at Texas says, this is yet another attempt by the Biden administration to create a workaround of the U S constitution and to expand gun registration in America. There's absolutely no legal basis for ATFs haphazard decision to try to change longstanding classification of stabilizing braces, to force registration on Americans, and then to throw them in jail for 10 years if they don't comply quickly. This rule is dangerous, unconstitutional,

and I'm hopeful this lawsuit will ensure that it is never allowed to take effect. I hope that when it goes to the Supreme Court, they would do something about this. But I don't know if it's gone to the Supreme Court yet or not, the bump stock. I know it's been upheld by some lower courts for sure. I don't remember if it's gone to the Supreme Court. Maybe listeners remember. So as this is happening, Texas is taking action to get rid of Citibank, Citigroup, from its syndicate set to manage their municipal bond offering.

It's the biggest ever municipal bond offering, and they're not going to allow Citigroup to be a part of that because they have been using their financial power to try to attack the Second Amendment. And of course, this goes back to the Obama administration, Operation Chokepoint, where they said, we're going to make it difficult for gun resellers as well as gun manufacturers to operate. We're going to exclude them.

We've now seen this metastasize to free speech rules, to other corporations like PayPal, getting rid of people because of their speech like me. I'm not allowed to use PayPal even as an individual or Venmo. But we've also now had Kathy Hochul going back to the Second Amendment. And people in New York, they put in a code to identify gun retailers so that it is easier for the banks to shut down these transactions. This is why CBDC is so incredibly dangerous because it's not a conspiracy theory how they're going to use this. We know exactly how it's going to be used. Anything that they

don't like, anybody that they don't like will be taken out of the financial system with these types of tactics. We also saw that some news has come out about DeSantis saying that his campaign wanted to ban guns at an event but did not want to be blamed. Now, this is something out of Tampa. Tampa is a big city, of course, and they're left-leaning in terms of the Democrat-run city. The Tampa Convention Center was where DeSantis was going to be making his statement, and there were state officials who contacted the Tampa officials and said, look, we would like for you to say that at this event, it's going to be a public event where DeSantis is going to be speaking, that we do not want to have firearms there.

So we want you to come out, and it'd be difficult for us to say this because of our political position, but we'd like for you to do that. And so those emails have now been released. And the spokesperson for the governor's political team says, well, we're relying on the guidance of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. They were the ones who made this request to the city of Tampa, and we have to do what they say to do. And they were the ones who didn this request to the city of Tampa, and we have to do what they say to do. And they were the ones who didn't want to have guns there.

And except the Florida Department of Law Enforcement was saying, well, no, we don't want this to be seen as coming from us. The bottom line is that, you know, this is something that the buck stops with the executive. And that is the reality. Another reason to, this is the election night party, as a matter of fact. They wanted it to be a gun-free zone in these emails. That was what was going back and forth. So, you know, this is coming up as the debate for permitless carry in Florida is going through. This is what the left is throwing out. It may be a smear campaign, but I think it is also the type of thing that Republicans,

you can't rely on them being solid on any of these issues. Kong says that Trump and that ATF move set a nightmare precedent for us to deal with across the board for any agency. Yeah, he set a lot of nightmare precedents, didn't he? We're going to take a quick break, and when we come back, we're going to talk about some pharmaceutical updates. Stay with us. We'll be right back. You're listening to The David Knight Show. The new number six writes, Trump is an authoritarian. That's always been his approach.

And that's why things have only gotten worse. That's absolutely true. And you can see that now. You can see that as he as he's saying yeah we need to ramp up the war on drugs and we need to execute people and so forth he's coming in as a tough on crime and he's talking about issues there were big issues back in the 1990s when he said in his interviews and statements he said hey the war on drugs is not working. We need to shut it down.

We're never going to end this that way. He was right about it at that point in time. But now he's taking the authoritarian approach and saying this procedure of trying to change people by force is, we need to escalate that. We need to do more of what has failed for the last 50 years. I was talking earlier about the days of wine and roses and alcoholism and my personal point of view on that. And we know that that failed.

We know it failed with alcohol prohibition. We know how destructive alcohol can be to people physically, mentally, spiritually. Very destructive. One of the worst things you can do. But the reality is, is that alcohol prohibition was a total failure, but at least they had the respect for the constitution to amend the constitution and then change it. The 18th and the 21st amendment show that there is no authority for a war on drugs and their experience with alcohol prohibition and our experience in the last 50 years shows that a law enforcement

approach is not going to tackle this problem. It is a problem, but it's not a problem that can be changed by law enforcement. And that's one of the things I think Trump knows as well. And bottom line is he didn't need to have, he didn't need to have, uh, he didn't need to have prohibition to keep him from becoming an alcoholic. He doesn't drink at all. And, um, you know, I, I've, I have been less inclined to go along with the war on drugs than anybody else. And I know, and I've known a lot of people who do drugs. I mean, it was in a band, you know, where, um, everybody was drinking, everybody was doing drugs. And it was a point of friction between us. Actually, they was like,

Hey, you know, do whatever you want. I'm not telling you what to do, but they felt uncomfortable if I wasn't joining them in it. So it was a point of, of friction with us. But you know, I would look at this and I would have this debate with my friends in engineering and, um, you know, I would look at this and I would have this debate with my friends in engineering and, you know, who would do some recreational drugs or whatever. I was absolutely, totally dead set against the war on drugs. I said, I didn't need to have cops or SWAT teams or civil asset forfeiture to keep me from doing drugs. And I would think that Trump would be exactly the same way. What was it that was real powerful in his life? Again, I think it was his brother, family member, who was caught up in addiction.

It is not these authoritarian policies, even if you are just a pragmatist, even if you don't understand, like Scott Adams. It's getting harder and harder to tell these freedom lovers from sociopaths. And I said, yeah, it's getting harder and harder to tell you from an authoritarian. But, you know, even he can understand some of this in a limited way. Let's talk a little bit about climate, actually, before we get into some of these other categories. The shameless attack on a climate Dissenter. This is

an article from Reason Magazine. And what's interesting about this is it's a book that was written by a guy who was undersecretary for science in the Obama administration in their energy department. And so he writes a book and he's a physicist, a New York University professor, undersecretary for science in the Obama administration's energy department, and he is now ostracized and off the reservation because he wrote a book called Unsettled. Oh, that one word right there set the entire climate industry on him. Unsettled, what climate science tells us, but it doesn't, and why it matters. And so his name is Stephen Koonin, and as Reason Magazine points out,

said we couldn't find any negative review of physicist Stephen Kuhn's Unsettled that disputed any of its claims directly. We couldn't find any that even described them accurately. And yet, the venom that has been poured on this guy is absolutely amazing. The book attracted extremely negative reviews filled with ad hominem attacks, such as a short statement appearing in Scientific American signed by 12 academics that instead of substantively rebutting his arguments, called him, quote, a crank who's only taken seriously by far right disinformation peddlers hungry for anything they can use to score political points, unquote. Another one said, just another denier trying to sell a book. They always use that religious terminology, don't they?

I think we should start calling ourselves climate infidels. We couldn't find a single negative review of Unsettled that disputed its claims directly or even described them accurately. Many of the reviewers seemed to have stopped reading after the first pages. I think they stopped reading when they saw the first word, Unsettled. See, that's the thing. Science is never settled. Religion is settled. Dogma is settled. Science is never settled. Religion is settled. Dogma is settled.

Science is not settled. It's constant. It should always be up for debate and for readjustment, or it's not science. Others were forced to concede that many of his facts were correct, but they objected that they were used in the service of challenging official dogma. See, even if your facts are correct, you're not allowed to say that if it's going to push back against what we have decided is going to be the official line. And this is being criminalized, weaponized everywhere. True statements in everything, not just climate. But that's why when we look at what happened with the pandemic, MacGuffin, it was clear because this has been happening for decades with the climate thing. Exactly the same MO.

Despite the extensive parts of Unsettled that document precisely the opposite, that the facts were widely denied in major media coverage, misrepresentations were cited as the basis for major policy initiatives. In a review of Unsettled and Scientific American, Gary Yohe, an emeritus professor at Wesleyan University, gives the impression that he didn't read past the first few pages.

And they say he seizes on the assertion, which appears on page two, that the warmest temperatures in the U.S. have not risen in the past 50 years. So Yohe says, according to what measure? Highest annual global averages? Absolutely not, he said. Well, Reason says if he kept reading, Yohei would have found a detailed account of precisely what measure Kunin was using and evidence that the record high temperatures in the U.S.

are no more common than they were in the 1970s. But he doesn't engage that argument. He doesn't even appear to know that there is an argument there because he reads two pages in and it's like, I'm done. I'm done. Yohei attacks Kunin's assertion that, quote, heat waves in the U.S. are now no more common than they were in 1900. This is questionable statement, he said, depending on the definition of heat wave.

And so it is really uninformative. Heat waves are poor indicators of heat stress. A reason says if Yohei had read the book carefully, he would have found the official heat wave index used and why it matters. But he offers no evidence that heat stress, something that is even less well-defined and hence less informative than heat wave, he offers no evidence that it's greater now than in 1900. As I pointed out just yesterday, another research paper that's come out, two scientists pointing out,

look where we're putting the thermometer. This is something that we've known for a long time, that the surface temperature measurements are being skewed by people putting them in urban areas or by the urban areas encroaching on these temperature collectors. We don't have that many of them. They haven't been there that long. And over the short period of time they've been there, you've now got urbanization that is going to skew the temperature higher. The accurate way to do this is by taking satellite readings, but they're going to cherry pick the data that supports what they want to do. Same memo we've

seen with a pandemic. So then he focuses on what he's really got a problem with which is the book's title unsettled unsettled kunin deploys a highly misleading label he says to falsely suggest that we don't understand the risks well enough to take action well i think if you're going to demand that we completely restructure society that we go back to that we completely restructure society, that we go back to, that we take away all of the modern conveniences and essentially go back to a pre-industrial society, I think you better have some evidence there. And I think you better be ready to debate this. But of course, they won't. They'll just talk about how it is settled.

Koonin has been attacked by others for not being a climate scientist by trade. You know, the interesting thing about this, if you go back and you look, this scam has been around for such a short period of time that you got the people who are at the top of this, what should we call it? Should we call it a field? That's giving it too much respect, actually.

But if you look at the people who are the respected experts, people like Michael Mann, they don't have degrees in climate science. They weren't giving degrees in climate science. These people are coming from some scientific disciplines, but they're coming from some general science. Some of them are physicists. Some of them are engineers. They're coming from a scientific background, but there weren't any degree programs in climate science like there are now. May God help us when they start generating these degrees. It's like the Wizard of Oz. I hereby declare that you are a grand poobah

of climate science. E purbus unum. In most dogmatic religions, it says reason only the anointed are granted the authority to speak, and that's what this has become. Absolutely right. It has become a religion. Global warming is not about science. This is always and has been about intimidating people

if you don't get the answer that you want. Yesterday, I talked about the fact that big losses are happening to General Electric and to Siemens. GE lost $2.2 billion last year. Siemens lost nearly a billion dollars in just the last three months. There are three major wind turbine companies. And this article from Popular Mechanics, I think, is actually even more interesting than what was happening to them financially. There was an indication in the Bloomberg reports that a big part of the problem of GE and Siemens and this third large company is the fact that they are

making these wind turbines bigger and bigger, faster and faster. And it's kind of a warp speed problem. The same problem we got when we rush any kind of product to market without doing sufficient product testing. Turbine failures are on the uptick across the world. Sometimes the blades are falling off or even having full turbine collapses. A recent report says production issues may be to blame, but turbines are growing larger while the quality control plans are getting smaller and smaller. The taller the wind turbine, the harder they fall. And they sure are falling, says Popular Mechanics. Wind turbine failures are on the uptick from Oklahoma to Sweden,

Colorado to Germany, with all three of the major manufacturers admitting that the race to create bigger turbines has invited manufacturing issues. This is from Bloomberg. Multiple turbines that are, listen to this, taller than 750 feet are collapsing across the world with the tallest 784 feet in stature, falling in Germany in September 2021. To put it in perspective, those turbines are taller than both the Space Needle in Seattle and the Washington Monument in Washington, D.C. This is just astounding.

If you've ever been in one of these fields, and of course they have them in Texas in certain areas, and it gives a really strange visual illusion because you've got these big turbine blades that are slowly turning. They are so big that they feel like they're close to you. Again, taller than the Seattle Space Kneeler, taller than the Washington Monument. And they're so large that you get the feeling as you're going, the only thing that you see are these windmills out in the distance,

and it feels like they're closer than they are. And you feel like, I don't know, it kind of gives you the feeling that you're not really even moving because they're not getting any larger. They're just so far away. Anyway, the smaller turbines that recently took a tumble in Oklahoma, Wisconsin, Wales, and Colorado were about the height of the Statue of Liberty. Turbines are falling for the three largest players in the industry, GE, Siemens, and another company I hadn't seen before, Vestas. Why? Well, it takes time to stabilize production and quality on the

new products, said the CEO of GE. He said, rapid innovation strains manufacturing and broader supply chains. Again, the warp speed approach. We don't have time to wait. And everything, when you're talking about MacGuffins, everything is, well, we don't have time to do it right. We can't wait for people, we can't follow the market, we can't follow demand. We have to push this. We have to mandate it. And we can't wait for the technology to be tried and tested and trued. No, we got to do it right now. There's no time to do it right. Mark says, Mark M228, I wonder if figures are available for China's Envision Energy, their major player in wind turbines.

Yeah, I don't know. This is a Bloomberg report, so I guess they focused on Western manufacturers. But it's the big losses that triggered this, the big losses from financial losses from GE, especially from Siemens. Without industry-wide data chronicling the rise and now fall of turbines, we're relying on industry experts to note flaws in the wind farms.

Fraser McLaughlin, CEO of an insurance company, underwriter for these things, told Bloomberg, we're seeing these failures happening in a shorter time frame on the new turbines. The push to produce bigger wind-grabbing turbines has sped production of the growing apparatuses. Bloomberg reports Siemens has endured quality control issues on new design, Vestas has seen project delays and quality challenges, and GE has seen a big uptick in warranty cost and repair.

With heights stretching taller than 850 feet, blades 300 feet long, and energy generation abilities ratcheting up accordingly, the bigger the turbine, the more energy it can capture. But the bigger the turbine, the more that can go wrong, and the farther that it fails. So finally, I'll finish with this climate thing here. and say, we all know where this is going, right? We know what is pushing both of these, these, these MacGuffins of vaccination as well as

climate change. It's depopulation. You have a Japanese individual who touts his Ivy League connections as being a professor at Yale. But he's talking about what needs to be done in Japan. And even the New York Times has picked it up because he's talking about suicide for old people in Japan. The soylent green side of the green agenda here, getting rid of the people.

Just as Bill Gates said, you know, we got these different factors here. One of them is a population. One of these factors has got to go to zero. Well, I don't know how you're going to get these other factors to go to zero. Maybe we can get the population to go to zero. And so this guy, Yushuki Narita,

an assistant professor of economics at Yale, says, I feel like the only solution is pretty clear. In the end, isn't it mass suicide and mass seppuku, if I'm pronouncing that correctly, the elderly, that's where you disembowel yourself, committing suicide, ritual disembowelment that the samurai used. Last year, when he was asked by a school-age boy to elaborate on his mass suicide theories, he graphically described to a group of assembled students a scene from a 2019 horror film called Midsommar.

Midsommar, Swedish. A Swedish cult sends one of its oldest members to commit suicide by jumping off a cliff. Yeah, just like Soylent Green. You could reference Soylent Green. You do it for the good of the people. Whether that's a good thing or not, he said, that's a more difficult question to answer.

He's an economics professor. He doesn't deal in morality, except that he does. You can't avoid morality. You may say, well, I don't have the moral answers. I don't have the philosophical answers. But there are moral and philosophical implications to anything you say, especially when you're saying old people need to just commit suicide and get out of the way. He says, so if you think that's good, then maybe you can work toward creating a society

like that, he told the student who questioned him. So here's a story about a guy in a movie who the old guy is sent to commit suicide by jumping off the cliff, and this is guy is sent to commit suicide by jumping off the cliff. And this is what they do to their older members. He says, if you think that's good, then maybe you can work toward creating a society like that. Dr. Narita, who is 37, said his statements have been taken out of context, that he was mainly addressing a growing effort to push the most senior people out of leadership positions in business and politics. I didn't want to just kill him.

While he's virtually unknown even in academic circles in the U.S., he has extreme positions that have helped him to gain hundreds of thousands of followers on social media in Japan among frustrated youth who believe their economic progress has been held back by a gerontocratic society. In other words, one that is elderly. He's found an eager audience by gleefully breaching social taboos. And the New York Times says, you know, he's doing this intentionally. He knows what he's doing.

And then he pulls back and says, well, I was just using that metaphorically. The phrase is mass suicide. Mass seppuku, is that how you pronounce it? I don't know either. An abstract metaphor, he said, I should have been more careful about their potential negative connotations. After some self-reflection, I stopped using the words last year. But as detractors say, his repeated remarks on the subject have been irresponsible, said one journalist.

People are panicking about the burdens of an aging society because people in Japan decided that they would stop having kids. There was an article on the Drudge Report yesterday, how childless couples were enjoying their life. Now it was like, well, that's fine. You don't know what you're missing. And, um, I don't know, you know, how you're going to feel about that as you get older. Uh, but that is what they're pushing. And that's been something that's been pushed in Japan for quite some time.

And now they're reaping the whirlwind from that. And we will as well. So the columnist argued in Newsweek that his comments should not be easily taken as just a metaphor. Narita's fans are people, says the reporter, who think that old people should just die already, and so social welfare should be cut. These are some opening salvos and the same type of thing coming here to the U S uh, they will be pushing this. I find it

interesting that, you know, this whole back and forth about social security and Medicare, uh, that is really a contract that is there. This is a contract. I can't find my name on, but it's a contract that I've had to pay into for a very long time. A lot of people criticize Ayn Rand for having taken social security when she was against it, but she says, hey, I paid into it. And it's only, it is a Ponzi scheme. You only get back a tiny fraction of what you put into it. You're unable to invest it. So you can't even take, if money is left over or if you die early or something like that, you can't even take if money is left over or if you die early or something like that. You can't pass that along to your family. It is simply a Ponzi scheme.

There is no account with your name on it with some money there. It's going to be coming from future generations. And this is the hallmark of yet another conflict that you're going to see them exploiting more and more as the population ages with the baby boomers and so forth. Last year, Plan 75, a dystopian movie by a Japanese filmmaker, imagined cheerful salespeople wooing retirees into government-sponsored euthanasia. In Japanese folklore, families carry older relatives to the top of mountains or remote corners of forests and leave them to die. Critics worry that Narita's comments could summon the kind of sentiments that led Japan to pass a eugenics law in 1948, under which doctors forcibly sterilized thousands of people with intellectual disabilities, mental illness, or genetic orders. In 2016, a man who believed those with disabilities should be euthanized murdered 19 people at

a care home outside of Tokyo. What is missing from this New York Times article is any comments from Rahm Emanuel's brother, Ezekiel Emanuel, who has said that people should die at the age of 75. And he's continued on with that. He's getting pretty close to the age of 75. Maybe he will do a Soylent Green or maybe not. Who knows? But this is what is fundamentally behind all this. It is anti-human. They want to depopulate the earth. They want to sterilize. They want to kill, sterilize those who can't have, you know, who are child producing ages.

They want to kill children. They want to kill the elderly. This is a war on humanity, if ever there was one. We'll be right back. In a world of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. You're listening to The David Knight Show. The Common Man 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. Well, we have Senator Josh Hawley says he's going to investigate a transgender clinic.

This is a whistleblower who has come forward with sickening revelations about a pediatric gender clinic. Frankly, we don't even need to know the details. We're talking about children, children who do not have the maturity to make this kind of decision. So whatever is happening, and of course these physical surgeries, chemical castrations, have had horrific consequences for people. Many of them have testified to this as they grow older and they get out of this stage where they're being pressured, peer pressure or institutional pressure, and feeling awkward about their changing bodies in many cases. In many cases, this is happening even before they reach puberty.

Hawley said in a tweet February the 9th, this is a sickening account of forced sterilization and child abuse. The account of a former employee of Washington University Transgender Center at St. Louis Children's Hospital. Of course, he's a senator from Missouri. In the article posted by Free Press, ex-case manager Jamie Reed calls for a nationwide halt to the use of puberty blockers, cross- James Younger, where his mother decided that she had twins. She was a physician. And for whatever reason, the father had a biological connection to the kids, but the kids were, um, for, and again, I don't know if there was something

that she was unable to have kids or if it was her decision that she didn't want to, but they had a surrogacy and there were twins, twin boys. One of them, she decided should be a girl and has been pushing him in that direction. And it's absolutely criminal. Look, there's a lot of child abuse that happens with CPS and a lot of abuse of families and others. But when you look at something like this, this is such a clear case. This is not something that a parent should be allowed to do to their children, and it is certainly not something that an institution should be allowed to do. So, yeah, they should be stopping this.

The hospital, meanwhile, is calling itself the Guardians of Childhood. Reid's article was entitled, I Thought I Was Saving Trans Kids and Now I'm Blowing the Whistle, asserting that children are being harmed by the gender clinic. His article includes screenshots of emails, or her article rather, in which she repeatedly expressed concerns over parents and children lacking full awareness of the possible consequences of these medical interventions. How could they possibly know?

How could the children possibly understand any of this stuff? And it's not likely that the parents have informed consent either. I'm sure they have not been informed of all the issues. That commonly occurs with most medical interactions today. She describes doctors telling her and a colleague that they had to, quote, stop questioning the medicine and the science as well as their authority. You see? If you talk about climate change, don't question the authorities. If you talk about the pandemic or the vaccine, don't question the authorities.

You talk about transitioning kids and mutilating them at an early age, don't question the authorities. If you talk about the pandemic or the vaccine, don't question the authorities. You talk about transitioning kids and mutilating them at an early age, don't question the authorities. Reed said she left her job at the clinic in late 2022 because she couldn't stomach the morally and medically appalling that's how she referred to it, effects on the children. During her

four-year stint at the clinic, about a thousand distressed youths came there seeking help. Many of them were prescribed hormones. She said they can have life-altering consequences, including sterility. Well, that's what the hormones were used for, chemical castration of rapists. They've not been tested for use on children.

As a matter of fact, it's an off-label use, isn't it? If you've okayed this for adult rapists, you have not done the test on kids. You've not prescribed this drug for somebody who wants to change their gender. So she thinks a nationwide halt to transgender procedures for minors is necessary given the secrecy and the lack of rigorous standards that characterize youth gender transitions across the country. She said she wanted to go on with her life after she changed jobs,

but she felt compelled to disclose the truth after reading an October 2022 article from Reuters. In that article, yeah, E. Pigeon, you're right. They want to destroy family, marriage, fidelity, all of it. Yeah, it is a war against us, and it is a spiritual war against us, no doubt about it. In that article, they quoted the guy who calls himself Rachel Levine. Richard, I think, was what his name is. A guy who was a child psychologist. Nothing suspicious about that, right?

That he would then focus on transgender issues for children. He is now in the Department of Health and Human Services. He said, clinics are proceeding carefully that no American children are receiving drugs or hormones for gender dysphoria who should not. Well, that's nonsense. There are no children who should receive this. Look, if children are struggling with this, you still wait until they're adults so they can make up their mind. Oh, but they'll commit suicide. No, the people who have the elevated suicide rates are the people that you've put through this. And many of them have come forward as young adults, talking about the physical and

psychological struggles and damage that's been done to them by these programs. So she looked at that article by Levine, said, I felt stunned, sickened. It wasn't true. And I know that from deep firsthand experience. So she began documenting everything she could about the, uh, being at the center. And a couple of weeks ago, she shared that account with Missouri's attorney general. Uh, he pushed it then to, um, Josh Hawley, who is trying to do something about this and the letter. She says she witnessed treatments continuing on children, despite adverse effects. I've got to say, I've seen the same thing happening with the vaccines, haven't you?

It's not a question as to whether or not these people will use children for their purposes. Use children to make money, destroy children's lives. That is, I'm afraid that's just become common. She concluded her article by saying that some people refer to transgender procedures being done on minors as, quote, experimental. She said that is a misnomer because experiments should be ethical and well thought out, unlike these treatments for children. Well, again, Fauci experiments on puppies and everybody gets upset. But when you, with James Younger, he's six years old and they were saying that he was going to be given chemical castration at the age of eight.

Absolutely insane. And his father was pushing back on that. His mother has now taken him to, and there were judges in Texas supporting her and all of this. Uh, she's now fled to California. California has bragged that they will perform this, uh, there, even if it's not legal in your home state. And of course, she's under a court order not to do this type of thing. But if she really wants to, she can do it in California.

They will ignore any Texas court order. Tennessee Attorney General has filed a brief challenging the FDA's new policy on an abortion drug. Well, here's new policy on an abortion drug. Well, here's another one of the pharmaceuticals. Again, any of these attorneys general can and should challenge the FDA on abortion drugs, on these puberty blocker drugs, any of these things they should be challenged on. And when you look at the spectrum of all this stuff,

from the vaccines to the puberty blocking drugs to abortion drugs, this is all being supported by the FDA, who cares absolutely nothing about health, who is engaged in a program to destroy and to kill. It's just that simple. Why do we even have an FDA? Point to me in the Constitution where there is that authority. Oh, well, you know, we have the General Welfare Clause.

We have this or that. No, well, you've got the 9th and 10th Amendment that were written after those supposed validations that are there. So even if that were true, the clear reading of the 9th and 10th Amendment says that there is no authority for something like the FDA to exist. It needs to be shut down. Plaintiffs in the case against the FDA seek to overturn the agency's recent policy change regarding Mephistopheles. Again, I refer to it as Mephistopheles. I think is the best way to describe this thing when I talk to the lawyer who is pushing back on it. State laws on chemical abortion account for the public interest at issue. They do so with the benefit of democratic legitimacy and legal authority.

The FDA's actions can make no such claim. By obstructing the judgments of elected representatives, the agency has undermined the public's interest. That is what the Tennessee State Attorney General has said, and he is absolutely right about that. Again, there are so many things that could be done when you look at this. A target-rich environment of entire bureaucracies that have no authority to exist, programs that attack our rights and freedoms, but now we're at the point where they are attacking our children,

our lives, our ability to have children. And people stand on the sidelines like these officials, like there's absolutely nothing they can do. You know, when you talk about the drag queen story hours. Oh, well, there's no specific law in the books about that, so there's nothing I can do. Well, some of the Republican states are doing things about that, saying they're treating it as if it were adding it to the list of adulterated businesses and adult entertainment or adulterated entertainment, we should say, because that's what

it doesn't mean mature. It means adulterated. And so they've added it to those lists. But look, it's always been illegal to have lewd performances in front of kids. This is all just an excuse for people who don't want to take the hit on it. They're afraid because they know what's going to be levied at them by the press and by the left. They're afraid to tackle it head on. It is lewd conduct with a minor. That has always been criminal and should be criminal. We will be right back. Thank you. you're listening to the david knight show well welcome back and um we have a new product that we're going to be introducing uh soon we've had a couple of people who have seen it and are talking

about it but we're not ready to roll it out we'll have that rolled out tomorrow uh so keep a lookout and um we'll let you know when uh when that hits We've got a fun promotion that we're going to put in with that. I was glad to see that Breitbart picked up on something I touched on yesterday as part of the show, and I think it needs to have more attention. Democrats passing laws to destroy suburbs. And this is the push to nationally, at the state level and at the federal level, to get rid of all zoning laws. That's what this is really about. And to do that so they can put high-density housing in suburban areas and destroy one of the key financial assets of most people, and that is the individual single-family home.

They want to get rid of that. This has been something that is a part of their agenda. When you look at the smart cities, when you look at, you know, they've got to destroy our wealth and make sure that we own nothing, that we go nowhere, that we're under their control in the cities. Well, one of the ways that they have to do that is not just to build their dystopian open-air prison, but they've also got to find a way to deconstruct what we currently have. I mean, who's going to, given a choice, that was the big thing of the 20th century.

Everybody, once they got a choice of suburbs after World War II, you had the GI Bill where you could go to college, where you could get a VA loan and other things like that to encourage home development. You had Levittown beginning in New York and people finding a way that they could get a little bit more space and breathing room. And the downside of that was they had to commute, but they were willing to spend the time to get to an area where they could have a little bit more freedom, independence, and to, you know, build a life for themselves. And the urban planners who are working hand in glove with a smart city stuff and have always been from the very beginning, the biggest opponents of cars,

they will tell you just as the CEO of Lyft wrote a book, he was by profession, an urban planner. And he said, the worst thing that's ever happened is the automobile. It's called caused urban sprawl. It's called the city cause the cities to grow out and so forth. No cities are the best thing we ever invented. And the cars are the worst thing because it allows people to escape our control. And that's what this is truly about.

So they want to destroy the suburbs. And of course, they're going to do it in the name of equity because that's all they care about. Just as I was saying earlier in the program, Buttigieg only cares about the fact, he doesn't care about what is happening in Ohio. He doesn't care about the ticking time bomb

of accidents, railroad accidents, carrying toxic chemicals because of a crumbling infrastructure. He doesn't care about any of that. Instead, he wants to make sure that when the contracts are put out, that they're awarded on the basis of skin color. That's all he cares about. Yeah, I've got hundreds of billions of dollars here to pass out. I want to make sure that it goes to people who are going to vote for me in the name of equity. So in the name of equity, the Biden administration, state Democrats have declared war on the suburbs. This is an article from Breitbart by John Nolte.

I'm glad to see this getting more coverage because it is something that has been kind of under the radar, but building. And as I said yesterday, it was Andrew Yang who mainly focused his candidacy on universal basic income at the beginning. He got a lot of support from Elon Musk and the people who want to take your jobs, lock you up in cities, and make sure that you are dependent upon them. They love the idea of universal basic income. It is universal communism, really, taking everything from you.

But a big part of that, he had a lot of policies that he came up with and that he pushed. He didn't come up with these things. They were proposed by other people. But the policies that he was pushing were all of that type of nature. And of course, getting rid of all zoning, or essentially not getting rid of it, but making it happen from Washington, centrally controlled planning of cities as well as suburbs and all the rest of this, and forcing high-density, low-income housing into suburbs

so they can level everything down. Whether you're talking about property values or you're talking about crime, this is what they want to do. So as he points out, Democrats in the Biden administration in New York, Connecticut, and many other states are fighting local zoning laws in order to build high-rise apartment buildings with quote-unquote affordable units and formerly tree-lined single-family neighborhoods in the name of equity, meaning that anybody can live in a tranquil suburb whether or not they've earned the money to pay for it or not.

The Biden administration announced January the 19th that it will require all towns across the U.S. to submit equity plans, showing how they will make it possible for low-income people to live there by providing affordable housing. So here's your job. You know, if you, wherever you live, what, no matter how small the town, they're going to be demanding from the federal government that they turn in an equity plan. And all of us need to find the time somehow. I know we're all busy.

We've got to somehow find the time to make sure that we go in and engage people at the local level. What we found here as we moved to Tennessee, it's smaller towns. And the people who work even in offices like DMV and everything, they're very nice people, very helpful. I haven't seen people in a small town like this. I haven't seen people at the DMV as helpful in other places that I've lived. They've been far more bureaucratic and distant. These people are trying to help you get through all the new paperwork that's there, but they're still pushing the new paperwork.

They're still pushing real ID and all the rest of this stuff. It's just my job. I do what they tell me to do, that type of thing. They're nice people. They're trying to help you. But you understand that if your local government is going to comply with this, that's just the first step. At some point, you're going to have to get yourself off of the bribery chain, the money chain, right? They're going to pull all your strings with money.

And right now, they're just in the information gathering and the plotting stage. It's like registration for firearms. Next comes a confiscation. And we need to understand what is happening. Right now they're registering your home in order to confiscate your home. And you better figure out what your local community is going to be doing about it. And you better get some officials there, if you can, who are willing to forego federal bribes so that they won't be blackmailed down the road. Because that's really what the plan has always

been. As Nolte says, the left's seething hatred for the suburbs is readily apparent in popular culture, where movies regularly portray these tranquil neighborhoods as hotbeds of racism, repression, sexual dysfunction, and hatred. Unless it's in the hands of a genius like David Lynch, the result is usually tired and stereotyped. But they're always after the suburbs. They hate them. They want everybody living in cities. And let me tell you, that is the last thing that you want. Nothing has changed since Jefferson's time when he said cities are a threat to the health, the welfare, and the liberty of man. Still the same story.
