As the clock strikes 13, it's Wednesday, the 21st of December, year of our Lord 2022, day 1014 of the emergency. And today is also the second year anniversary of our show. We're going to talk about that later in the program. We really do appreciate your support. But we're going to talk today, beginning with this.

We have Zelensky coming to Congress with his wish list. Perhaps he'll sit on the lap of Nancy Pelosi. And we also have Congress putting out a list of all the things they thought was naughty about Trump. They're going to look at his tax returns and make a list about all these naughty things they find there. Will it matter? Will it matter? What if they were even to convict him of something? Would that block him from running for president?

Or would it turn him into a martyr? Well, we'll take a look at all those when we come back. Stay with us. Well, it was Ronald Reagan who said, I'd say that Congress spends money like a drunken sailor, but that would be an insult to drunken sailors. And so now they have a 4,155 page omnibus bill, $1.7 trillion. They've added billions more than even Biden asked for Ukraine. Zelensky will be coming to Congress as his acceptance speech. You love me. You really love me today, I guess. He's been appearing at all the award shows.

He was very upset that he didn't get to talk at FIFA. They demanded that he be able to address people at FIFA, the World Cup. But they were very upset that he was not allowed to speak there. So, yeah, he's made the rounds of all these reward shows and he's now getting his award and, uh, he's here to collect it. Maybe they give him a gold statuette or something.

Anyway, $1.7 trillion. And of course this has a lot of traditions in it. Not only are they spending money worse than a drunken sailor but they are also in the pelosi tradition dropping this 4100 page nearly 4200 pages uh 4200 page bill just before they go on on recess for christ. Not going to have any delays on that. And it's very much like the tradition of the Federal Reserve creation, waiting until a lot of people have left and then running this thing through

and getting it passed to the people who remained in town. A lot of deception, but it's also the Pelosi tradition. We have to pass the bill to find out what's in it. We know some of the things that are in this bill, but we won't know most of them for a while. And I stop and think about this. You know, I do a lot of reading in preparation for the show. I go through 300 to 500 pages of news every day.

After I go through the websites to pick the articles and I have to read them all the way. And, you know, some of them I throw out, some of them I, I continue on with. So, you know, if I'm looking at this, if I didn't like, you know, 500 pages a day, which is the upper limit, um, but take me a week to go through this thing. And there's a lot of gotchas in these legal documents. And here are some of them that stand out like a sore thumb. They can't really hide $45 billion in military and economic aid for Ukraine. Biden had asked for 37 and they just threw in another 8 billion. No, because a billion here, a billion there, who cares about that anymore. Right. Uh, so, um, uh, and $47 billion for the NIH, the national institutes of health where Fauci is,

where they do the puppy experiments, where they do the, uh, purchasing of baby parts so they can create transhumanist mice where they do gain of function research and other places. And, uh, you know,

the biological weapons program. Do we really need $47 billion for National Institute of Health and $45 billion to try to push us into world war? I mean, NIH went to war with us, the COVID war, so they're being handsomely rewarded. I guess, you know, $45 billion is a new 30 pieces of silver, right? It's like the mouse that roared. Remember that movie, Peter Sellers?

This poor country, what are we going to do? We don't have any money. I know what we'll do. We'll declare war on the United States and then surrender. And they will, you know, give us massive amounts of money. And so they, uh, they had come in a ship, uh, wearing medieval armor and try to get people to notice them. Well, we noticed what was done to us and the NIH went to war with us and we better be paying attention as to what is happening as Zelensky is doing everything he can to push us into a world war. Yeah, I imagine he's, like I said, he's going to come here and sit on Santa's lap.

It's like, well, what do you want for Christmas, little man? I want a nuclear war. Shut up, you'll put your eye out. NARS as well. So what do we get out of this? Well, I don't see anything in terms of any reforms tied into this. Senator Josh Hawley has pushed to have a ban on TikTok on government devices included in this omnibus bill. That's it?

That's it for our side? Before we ban TikTok on government devices, that's it. That's it for our side. Um, before we ban Tik TOK on government devices, could we ban the DHS and the FBI and the CIA and the NSA from our phones? Would that be a good thing to do? You think, how about maybe we could ban the FBI, ban the FDA,

ban the NIH, the CDC and the fed, any of NIH, the CDC, and the Fed. Any of this stuff. Nothing. Zero, zip, nada. Republicans are not going to change anything. They consolidate the gains of the Democrats. That's the whole thing about conservatism, is that it's just a matter of time.

Once something, no matter how bad the thing is that liberals put in after it has been there for a while, it's completely legitimate and the, the Republicans and the conservatives will fight to keep it. That's their problem. That's our problem, frankly. Uh,

anyway, so as Lindsay is going to get his, uh, $45 billion from Santa and Congress today as he speaks to them. The rest of the world is just trying to get a lump of coal. House conservatives swiftly came out against the omnibus spending bill. That's one thing you can get Republicans to push back against, spending a lot of money. You know, I'm okay with, you know, $500 billion, but you get up there around a trillion

and everything. I, we got to say something about that. That's what Everett Durson was, uh, doing that satirically. Well, you've got a million dollars here and a million dollars pretty soon. You know, you're, you're talking about real money, you know, after you spend a billion here and a billion there. Anyway, lawmakers said we are obliged. They sent a letter to the Senate warning Senate Republicans to push back on this. Said we are obliged to inform you that if any omnibus passes in the remaining days of this Congress,

we will oppose and whip opposition to any legislative priority of those senators who vote for this bill, including the leader. That would be you, Mitch. So what the Republicans are promising to do, House conservatives, they found 13 of them in the House. They say they have 13 conservatives. The rest of them won't even call themselves conservatives, uh, or part of the freedom caucus.

And let me tell you, those 13 guys are not completely reliable either as, uh, any values that you would want or any freedom or constitution. Uh, so that's it. I mean, you know, I don't have 13 I'm a, for freedom and I'm for limited government and I'm conservative. The rest of the people, I, yeah, shut up. We don't, we don't want you here. So in the Senate, uh, Mike Lee says he wrote a rhetorically, he said, this bill has been

written in large measure by two retiring senators, one Republican, one Democrat. Why should we move heaven and earth trying to force their priorities on the very people they keep in the dark? At LiveScoreBet, we love Cheltenham just as much as we love football. The excitement, the roar, and the chance to reward you.

All according to two senators' contrived, manipulated timeline. Well, they contrived and manipulated that timeline so they could weaponize it. So the Ukrainian aid, this $45 billion, again, Biden asked for 37. They said, no, we'll give you 45. It'll bring the total U.S. spending on the war to about $112 billion.

Now, that's over a nine-month period. So we're on pace to give Ukraine about $150 billion. And I've talked about this chart. Let me show you this chart. This is coming from the World Bank. The World Bank. And let's take a look. This is Ukraine's gross domestic product for going back to 2012.

So 10 years of it. Okay. Excuse me. If you look at 2012, $183 billion. 2013, $190 billion. We're on course to give them $150 billion this year for one year because we're nine months through and we're up to 112. So at that pace, we're going to give them essentially what their gross domestic product

has been. But look at what happened in 2014. All of a sudden, you know, they had 183, 190. Then all of a sudden in 2014, their gross domestic product drops to 133 well that's pretty big what was that well that was when you had the democrat party and obama administration and nato engineer this coup and that was when the civil war began in Ukraine. And it does amazing things to your gross domestic product when you go to war, especially when you go to civil war and you start bombing civilians, as they did in the Donbass and elsewhere, and kept that up. So that wasn't the entire year the war wasn't going on. So it was 133.

The next year it drops all the way down to 91. They lost more than half of their gross domestic product because of that war. So 2015, the war is the entire year. Their gross domestic product, which had been up around 180 to 190, dropped to 91. Next year, 2016, 93 billion. They start to gradually recover by 2017, 112 billion. I don't know if that is counting now some American aid that is coming in. Then in 2018, they get up to 130, still not anywhere close to where they were. 153 in 2019 and 2020, 156. And then all of a sudden the year before this war breaks out 2021,

um, where you have, um, you know, again, the, the, uh, Putin did not invade until late February. And yet they had said when they got into office in 2019 that, um, you know, they were going to come in, they were going to do peace. Restovich, who was with Zelensky, who was head of the peace talks, the Ukrainian TV asked him, you know,

what's the prospect for peace? He said, none. It's going to get worse. Oh no. Yes. We will be at war with Russia in 2022. He said that in 2019. So he was planning a war. The Zelensky administration was planning a war. They'd been told by NATO. He said, the good thing is, yeah, the entire country is going to be destroyed, but the good thing is we will get into NATO. So they'd planned this, and all of a sudden, their gross domestic product, which had been $150 billion, jumps to $200 billion. The year before, leading up to this, leading up to the year that they predicted this was going to happen.

Do you find that suspicious? I do. I do. So he's going to be in Congress coming in person. He doesn't usually go places in person. He zooms in and pontificates from a big monitor to all these award shows. But this is such a big award that he's going to come in. I mean, you know, the dollar figures are escalating.

It wasn't that long ago that when you combine the military and the economic aid were $60 billion. Now they're going to pile on another $45 billion. So it's escalating. His appearance on Capitol Hill would mark the first time since February 24th Russian invasion that he has left Ukraine. First time.

that would be tantamount to imposing a no-fly zone, which we've all talked about. He's been asking for that. As a matter of fact, he wants us to get into a nuclear war, to teach the Russians a lesson. This guy is just amazing. And so if you create a no-fly zone, of course, you're going to have to enforce that, as some of the saner people have pointed out. That means that you're going to have to confront

and shoot down Russians if they disobey your orders. And Russia has said, yeah, we're right up to the brink of a direct confrontation between the u.s and russia zielinski's march address when he talked to congress before was laced with american patriotic references from pearl harbor to memories of 9-11 and to martin luther king jr even threw in Mount Rushmore. He said, this attack is an attack on basic human values. What human values would those be?

Oh, well, you know, we had the British intelligence officials and the American intelligence officials and British generals and all them saying our values are the rainbow values of the LGBT coalition. So I guess that's it, right? Basic human values. Uh, so the Russian, the, uh, the, uh, Western leaders say, uh, it's, it's just amazing to look at. I think some basic human values is that you don't drop shells on your own citizens. You don't start shelling a city simply because they assert that they have a right to self-governance. That's what Zelensky did. I think basic human rights is that you don't lock up your political opponents when you win.

I think basic human rights are that you don't shut down churches. You don't create your own church as he did in 2019. He created a spinoff from the Eastern Orthodox Church because the Eastern Orthodox Church is so heavily tied to a Russian patriarch there in Ukraine. So for political purposes, he created a separate church that's been percolating along, and now he is confiscating assets from people in that church, shutting them down, declaring them to be terrorists if they attend that church. We're talking about basic human liberties. Shutting down the press, arresting people in the press,

arresting his opponents, shutting down free speech, shutting down the free exercise of religion. Those are basic human rights. But he will be applauded when he comes to Congress by Republicans and Democrats because they've been doing that to you for the last two years especially, but even before that. They've been warming up for this for a long time. But for the last two years, they've been doing that to us.

So why wouldn't they applaud Zelensky? So Wednesday's new in-person appearance will likely include themes of suffering during Christmas. He has already alleged that Russia is trying to steal Christmas. He's painting Putin as a Grinch. And, you know, Ukraine is just a little whoville as then i guess the world health organization but maybe he's going to paint a picture of something like this for congress Come on, open the door! Hurry up! It's Lee Majors!

The six million dollar band! Santa, is there a back way out of this place? Of course there is, Lee. But this is one Santa that's going out the front door. It don't matter a hill of beans what happens to me. The world couldn't afford it if anything happened to you. Now you stay put. Oh, that's very nice of you, Lee. And Lee, you've been a real good boy this year. Yes, you sure have.

Seven o'clock, Psycho Z, Santa's Workshop. Eat this, and only Lee Majors can stop them. Or Zelensky. Yeah, maybe he'll show that. You know what? I'm here to ask for Lee Majors. We need him right now. No, actually, his stuff is getting even more satirical. Zelensky says this Christmas, Ukrainian children are asking for air defense systems that's right you know norad tracks santa all the time right what norad can't track are the planes on 9-11 but they can track santa every year that's for sure uh so

he's telling everybody that you know the kids are, uh, and actually they're, they're looking for that lump of coal for real. Now, uh, retiring Senator Richard Shelby is one of these two retiring senators that, um, I clearly was talking about. He said this, this whole omnibus bill was pork bill was written by two retiring senators, forcing a deadline on us. $656 million worth of earmarks have been put into this $1.7 trillion omnibus. It's about a third of it. And, um, about a third of this bill is earmarks that have been put in by this

retiring Senator Richard Shelby, a Republican, a Republican, uh, Shelby as a longtime Senate Republican appropriations leader has had a particularly outsized influence in the drafting of the gargantuan legislation. Uh, perhaps this is his golden parachute, right?

As I've said before, like you can't get a better return on investment than an american politician yeah you you these guys can give you several thousand percent return on investment i mean look at what trump did for the pharmaceutical companies for example uh anyway 13 million dollars for a min airport runway, $26 million for the Tuscaloosa. That's an Abbeville, uh, where he is, uh, Alabama Tuscaloosa national airport runway extension, $26 million, a hundred million dollars for the Woolsey Fennel bridge, $200 million for the Alabama state port authority,

$50 million for evolving loan fund for to benefit Alabama, 35 million for the Alabama state port authority, $50 million for evolving loan fund for, to benefit Alabama, 35 million for the Marion military Institute, 45 million for the university of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, you get the idea, right? Um, one of these things, the, uh, 22.6 million for deepening the Tom Bigby waterway, there's a song, there's an old, uh, folk song, the Tom bigby waterway there's a song there's an old uh folk song the tom bigby waltz that's uh i i discovered that a couple of years ago i really like that old song and i thought that was such an unusual name tom bigby i mean it's not tom the first name and big b the last it's all one name it's like that about? Anyway, you look at this and one third of the spending in this ridiculous bill is going to Alabama. Because it's Alabama, Alabama, Alabama, Alabama.

This goes on for pages here. It's all millions of dollars. Every one of these things. It's kind of like a theme that's running throughout it. And when you stop and think about it, it wasn't that many years ago that the entire military budget was $656 million. Right. I'm sorry.

A billion dollars. Um, it is, uh, yeah, it is pretty amazing. I'm sorry. Yeah. You know, I, I do this all the time. 656 million. It's not a third of the thing because that's trillion. We're talking about billions.

See, even I can't keep these things straight. It doesn't make any difference. So 656 million. The Pentagon budget, 656 billion a couple of years ago. They just upped it as well. They gave more money to Biden than he had asked for. So now they're over 800 billion. That's what the B.

So Shelby put a bunch of stuff in there anyway. You know, 656 million is nothing to sneeze at, even though it ain't 656 billion. But, you know, when I started looking at these things, 100 million for this and 200 million for that 50 million, I thought, well, okay, he's going to get up to a billion, but then the numbers start to get smaller. Although he does have 76 million for an Alabama school of medicine and 50 million for the university of Alabama, Tuscaloosa for an endowment to support recruitment and retention of exceptional faculty. I bet you could probably support and recruit a lot of people with a $50 million. Anyway, uh, that's how they get us, right? We don't even think anymore.

Million, billion, trillion, whatever. These numbers are so astronomical. You can't keep tracking them, especially the billion, the trillion dollar stuff. As I was saying, you know, when, when Trump dropped his 3.7 trillion, trying to get your head around that, you know, you have to come up with these analogies. And I said, you know, even if you take newly printed $100 bills and you stack them, you know, this is how far a $3 trillion gets you to the moon. It gets you there.

I think it was $1 bills that were stacked, but it gets you to the moon it gets you there i think it was it was one dollar bills that were stacked but it gets you to the moon and back that's how much uh 3.7 trillion dollars was anyway mccarthy is uh joining excuse me joining the threat to block legislation he's one of these guys who is now, I guess you can call McCarthy, a trans conservative. He is not actually a conservative, but he identifies as one for the purpose of the speaker election. And so now he has jumped in to this because the conservatives are pushing Andy Biggs in opposition to him as a speaker in the House. And they're worried because the Democrats could play some games, I guess, because they get to vote on who the speaker is as well. The speaker is not automatically coming from the party that is there.

And it doesn't even have to be somebody that is in Congress at the time, as some people pointed out. Geesebusters, Geesebusters, thank you very much for the tip. Every time I mention that and I get the transcript, it'll always say Ghostbusters, Ghostbusters. But we know what that is. He helps people to make sure that if they've got geese that are becoming a nuisance, uh, he makes sure they mosey on somewhere else.

So, uh, thank you very much. I appreciate that. So McCarthy says the omnibus gives up the funding leverage that we used to lift the vaccine mandate and the oil export ban. They're going to take away our opportunity to secure the border, to become energy independent, because when those appropriation bills get passed, remember what's happening here. Leahy and Shelby are writing it.

Two senators who won't be there in 15 days. Shelby, the one from Alabama I just talked about. Patrick Leahy is retiring as well. He's a Democrat. We now have a stronger hand that we can play with the Senate and with the administration because we will have the gavel. Do a short-term CR. Put it into continuing resolution. Put it into the end of January, end of February. We're willing to go forward. Larry, one of the best things we were able to do in the country was when it was divided to lift the ban on selling our oil and gas outside

of america and you know when we did that we did that in the appropriation process when obama was president we were able to negotiate we can do the same thing now so what he's saying is no hurry on this we don't have to get this done before the christmas break we can do a continuing resolution we can come back later and we need to not uh give up on all this stuff because that really is about their only leverage that they have uh so there's a lot of pushback from conservatives also from mccarthy who are trying to do this so it may not happen but you notice um i don't think anybody is even speaking out against Zelensky. And if you watch him speak, they're going to pan the camera around. He's going to get a standing ovation from the Republicans, not just from the Democrats.

So Reason asks, why does funding the government take $1.7 trillion and 4,000 pages? Is that a rhetorical question when we would ask for information from the government they would never give us specifically what we wanted they would just say well you know here's the budget um so you know go fish you would get this massive thing in a paper format not searchable by computer. And it's up to you to go through that and try to figure out what is happening. And one of the most effective ways that you can hide a needle is in a haystack, isn't it?

You're listening to The David Knight Show. Rhode Island has passed a ban on high-capacity firearm magazines. And now they have some people, a gun store and some gun owners,

have taken this to court. And a federal judge has now decided that it is constitutional to do that. This is judicial supremacy. Micromanaging, if you will. Infringing is the way they put it you know they didn't have when they wrote the constitution they didn't say micromanage but they talked about infringement and really that is a better description they're mic they're coming in the devil is in the details and so is the nullification of the second amendment in the details they use the term infringement because they understood that there wasn't going to be one day that some tyrant in government or some legislative body would just come out and say, all right, that's it.

We're taking all the guns. They realized it was going to be a gradual process. They would cut it off slice by slice. And when you talk about infringement, you're talking about around the border, right? And so the way I like to think of it is somebody gradually encroaching on your property rights by moving the fence that was dividing your property in theirs. They gradually move that fence onto your land and then leave it there to establish a principle and you're okay.

You leave it there. And then the next, next year you come back and they've moved it again. And it's a gradual process death by a thousand cuts instead of just, you know, passing along saying that's it. And, and they use that term.

And I always thought that it was significant that they would say, when they're talking about the First Amendment, they said, Congress will make no law abridging this. So they figured, well, with the First Amendment, they can just come in and say, okay, you can't, that speech is hateful, it's misinformation, it's disinformation, it's malinformation. We're going to shut that down. We're going to shut down that hateful church because we hate their beliefs and that type of thing. That type of stuff can just be done by legislative fiat. But if you have an armed

population, you're going to have to disarm them gradually. You're not going to come out one day and just say, I'm taking your guns. It's like, okay, we'll come and take it. So it's going to be a gradual process, and this is what this is. So this federal judge in Rhode Island upheld a newly enacted state law banning the possession of large-capacity magazines that carry more than 10 rounds of ammunition. And it's amazing what this guy said. If ever there was an example of how we are being ruled by political appointees who know nothing and care nothing about the Constitution, they know nothing about what they're regulating, and they know nothing about the Constitution. A single U.S. District Court chief judge, John J. McConnell Jr.,

says basically that the Second Amendment doesn't mean what it says. And what would we be surprised about that? If liberals can redefine woman and vaccine and everything else that they want to redefine, right? But they can redefine something as basic as what is a woman. Do you think they can redefine what is infringement? You know, what is a militia? All these other things. They can redefine anything, and that's the way they do it.

So the judge also said that allowing the law to be enforced was in the public's interest. Well, that's none of his concern. Public interest would be something that you as a policymaker and a lawmaker would be interested in. But a judge shouldn't care about that unless he's legislating from the bench. Public interest, you have one job, judge, and that is to look at this and see if it's legal or not. It doesn't matter if it's in the public's interest.

You know, there are clear lines that are drawn in the Constitution. So where did this guy come from? I went back and looked at his background. For years, he was an attorney in private practice. He was part of a big law firm that was part of a big lawsuit against big tobacco. And so he put together research for them and did stuff like that. He wasn't the only attorney. There's a lot of attorneys working on that.

And it was a 46-state lawsuit. And so he worked on that for a number of years. Then he became treasurer of the Rhode Island Democrat State Committee for 14 years. Political. Political. Then he became a campaign chair for a big candidate, mayor of a big city there in Rhode Island. Political. Then he got on the board of directors for planned parenthood.

So he said, you understand he doesn't have a problem with murder. He's got a problem with guns. He was on the board of directors of planned parenthood. Yeah. How many people are killed with guns in Rhode Island versus killed with planned parenthood clinics? So it's, it's guns in-defense that he has a problem with.

Murdering innocent people, that's good. I'll help with that. So he was appointed by Obama, but how did he get appointed by Obama? Well, you know, he's in, again, private practice. He's a treasurer of the Democrat State Committee. He's on the board of directors for Planned Parenthood. He helps Democrats as their campaign chair and things like that. And so then he decides, since he's been a private lawyer before,

I'd like to be a judge. I'd like to be a district court judge, a federal district court judge. So in Rhode Island, teeny tiny state that still has two senators, they got as many senators as California or Texas. So he goes to those two senators and he writes a letter to the two of them after the vacancy appeared, one guy retired. So he writes a letter to them and says, I'd like to be on the district court. And these two senators from this small town, from this small pond where this guy is a big fish, send that on to Obama, and he becomes a district court judge who now says stuff like this. Well, I'll give you his comment here um he says um victims of mass shooting are not

chosen randomly but because of what they represent to a particular person with a gun and a lot of ammunition. He also said that the plaintiffs had failed to show that magazines represented arms. What does he think they represent? As stated in the second amendment and the, or that they'd not present a credible evidence establishing that magazines are a weapon of self-defense. Well, here's the thing, judge, in case you haven't noticed, if you don't have any bullets in your gun, it's a club.

Uh, we don't want to have a situation like Davy Crockett at the Alamo. You know, he had one shot and after he shot that he had to use it as a club, right? See in the pictures, uh, people, uh, Davy Cckett swinging his his gun um no if you don't have bullets you don't have a gun it's an essential part of the gun everybody knows that that's how dishonest and politicized um and specious his arguments are and listen listen to this. This is another thing he says. He also wrote that large capacity magazines can easily be used to convert handguns into semi-automatic weapons capable of rapid fire. He doesn't realize that most handguns are semi-automatic. What is that?

He doesn't even know what that term means. He has no idea what semi-automatic means. Semi-automatic weapons means that it fires every time you pull the trigger. You had Western six-shooters that were semi-automatic. And of course, before that that they did have some revolvers that were um you know you had to manually cock the hammer and then you could pull the trigger to release it then you'd manually cock the hammer again so you'd load it up with six bullets and you'd have to pull the hammer back it's probably one of the reasons you see people

doing the fanning you know when they pull it back and just hold the trigger down to pull the hammer back. It's probably one of the reasons you see people doing the fanning, you know, when they pull it back and just hold the trigger down and pull the hammer back and let it release so they can do it. That's rapid fire. I mean, that's like a bump stock or something. That ought to be outlawed. You know, they ought to ban anybody depicting any of these Western gunslingers who are doing a, you know, fanning the gun, you know. At LiveScoreBet, we love Cheltenham

We've got to make that illegal. Forget about what he's shooting at. And, of course uh going back i think one of the best um best books i saw on guns and gun control um was uh the highwaymen the gunslinger and the vigilante or something like that and and it talked about how in the old west uh as much as hollywood has distorted this and glorified the violence of the old west it was far more peaceful than the big cities of today and you did have the gunfighters that would go down the street and stuff like that but for the most part you know they weren't going around

and shooting up a church or something right they were shooting each other and they kept that pretty much localized and um and you had the posse that would join with the sheriff and his deputies, hunt down somebody that had done something. So there were immediate consequences for people who misused their gun because everybody else had a gun. And there were a few people like highwaymen, highway robbers, and gunslingers who had misused that. And they were dealt with in many cases by the other people who had guns. So he says the magazine is not a weapon of self-defense. It is essentially a part of the weapon. It's like, you know, you can't have bullets. It's not a weapon of self-defense. It is essentially a part of the weapon.

It's like, you know, you can't have bullets. It's not a gun. This reminds me very much of the kinds of prevarications that we had coming out of Washington, D.C. when they lost the Heller case. If you remember that case,

that was a Washington, D.C. police officer who wanted to be able to carry a gun when he was off duty. And I said, no, only when you're on duty, only when you're wearing a, a, a, um, a uniform and you got to keep this thing stored. And so he took that to court and it was a major defeat for the gun controllers because the court said, no, it says that you can keep and bear arms. That means you can carry them.

And besides, this guy is a police officer. You vetted him, and you're arming him during regular hours. But now when he's not on duty, you say he can't be trusted with a gun? And it's that kind of specious argument that you know well you know uh you can you can keep a gun but you can't carry a gun even if you're a cop that's the kind of nonsense this guy's coming up with oh yeah well we can regulate the magazines because they're not a part of the gun and the gun store said uh well and the the plaintiffs said, well, the reality is, is that we have a lot of weapons that cannot be modified.

If you remove this because of production for other reasons, you've got a lot of guns that cannot be modified for use with a smaller capacity magazine. And so the firearms dealer, Big Bear Hunting and Fishing Supply, said that a large capacity magazines make up a substantial amount of their inventory. You're just confiscating our guns, essentially. And they are. Because if you have these high capacity magazines, that's going to be treated as a felony. This judge is just an ignorant political hack. He can't even come up with some reasons to

defend this. Other things that are in the law, they've changed the age of purchasing firearms or ammunition in Rhode Island from 18 to 21, but they make exceptions for police and other law enforcement persons. So you can be 18 years old cop and you're okay yeah it's kind of like that dc heller thing they also have prohibited the open carrying of any loaded rifle or shotgun in public but it's primarily this high capacity magazine that was at the center of it because now people are going to be quote forced as said the plaintiffs we're going to be forced to dispose of privately owned, legally acquired, standard capacity magazines by December the 18th without receiving any compensation or rights, without any conditions or of continued ownership

to keep their lawfully acquired property. And if you don't do that, let's say if you don't comply with this and dispose of your lawfully acquired property protected under the Constitution specifically, you can now be convicted of a felony and potentially face five years of incarceration. So, you know, as I pointed out, these guns are now out of production, many of them. And so the manufacturers are not going to go back and retrofit these things so we can even use them. But the absurdity at the center of it is the idea that the bullets are not part of the gun. Not part of a firearm, I should say. Of course, they're not part of the gun.

They go down that way. They go down range. So he says, true, these victims are singled out because people have a high-capacity magazine, he says. Yes, they are random in the fact that their identities are usually not known to the shooter, but in actuality, the victims have not been chosen randomly, says this Democrat politician that got appointed as a federal district judge.

He said they've been chosen because they're attending a synagogue in Pittsburgh or a church in Sutherland Springs. They've been chosen because they're in a place where there's nobody who's armed to defend them. Unlike these politicians and others. Ben Thies. Thank you very much for the tip on Rockfin. I appreciate that.

That's a new name. I haven't seen before. Thank you very much. Appreciate that. So it never ends. We're going to take a quick break and we'll be right back with an update. We have somebody else commenting on the JFK assassination. This is some guy who also says that he knows.

We'll be right back. This is The David Knight Show.

I saw this on the Wall Street Journal. And this is an op-ed piece by a guy named Paul Roderick Gregory. He's written a book about the JFK assassination. He said as a child, he knew Lee Harvey Oswald and, um, and he knows that he was a lone shooter because he knew him. This is the kind of the counter to, uh, Tucker Carlson, who for 60 years couldn't look at the physical evidence and come to a deductive reasoning about this well i know that's not possible i know that magic bullet thing is not possible and we got the zaputa film i'm not gonna

pay attention to any of the evidence because i've got expert testimony and the thing that changed tucker carlson's mind is he gets a call from somebody says i've looked at the hidden papers and yes they did kill him oh well now I've got an expert who tells me. And so this guy is the countering expert. If you're incapable of doing critical thinking and looking at evidence, then you just have to go on competing testimony from quote-unquote experts. This guy says, you know, when the Warren Report came out in 1964, 80% of the people agreed that Oswald acted alone.

Today, more than 60% don't believe Oswald acted alone. Let's put it a different way. It's gone from, according to him, 80% of the people believing that Oswald acted alone to 40% of the people believing that, from 80 to 40. I find that hard to believe. Maybe it's just where I was, you know, I, I gotta say my, my family, unlike, you know, Oliver Stone, some of the people who have, um, investigated JFK assassination My parents were conservative. The only bumper sticker my dad ever had on his car was for Barry Goldwater, because he was the only one that was anywhere close to conservative and

libertarian enough for him. But we were not happy with JFK's policies. We were not happy living in Florida with the Cuban missile crisis. We saw it as vacillation and weakness. Uh, now in different perspective, we understand the pressure that he was under from the CIA, but we didn't have that understanding at that point in time. We just saw it as somebody, you know, when I was going to school in second grade, they were telling us, you better take a change of clothes. Now, this is a school that I walked to that was only about a mile away. Everybody bring a change of clothes because, you know, there might be a nuclear attack and you won't have time to get home and stuff.

It's like, what? We all had to bring clothes and put them, you know, have extra set of clothes because there might be a nuclear attack. Again, total nonsense, like the duck and cover stuff, but it does put the fear of God in you, you know, and the fear of governments who think that they're God. And so we're looking at this and it's like, well, you know, maybe we just, you know, kind of breathed the sigh of relief. This guy's been kind of dangerous in office. Uh, little did we realize the bigger things that were happening behind the scenes, but

nobody believed that this was Oswald, especially, you know, the next day or so you can see him get shot by Jack Ruby. That happened around Thanksgiving. And I remember all of my family, in for Thanksgiving, and all the adults, I'm sitting there, I'm like third grade, and all the adults are talking about their conspiracy theories, because there's something else going on here, you know, this guy was killed to shut him up, so that means there's more than one person involved, it's just that simple, even before you had the magic bullet theory that was put out there by arlen specter and he turned that into a very lucrative career as a senator uh even before you had the zapruder film

even before you had eyewitness testimony that they heard gunshots from over there not from back there and all the rest of this stuff i mean you know just the fact that he's taken out by Jack Ruby, known mob, mob ties and, uh, dying of cancer and all the rest of this stuff. Uh, so nobody that I knew, uh, none of the adults that I knew, even though they didn't like Kennedy's policies, nobody believed that, uh, that was a lone shooter situation, but he says, this guy says, my father was a native Russian speaker. He taught the language at a public library in Fort Worth, Texas. Oswald wanted a certificate of fluency in Russian, and he invited my father and me to his brother's house.

There we met his wife, Marina, for whom my father translated after the assassination moscow and some american leftists accused my father of mistranslating her in order to shift the blame to lee harvey oswald lee's brother identified me as lee and marina's only friend during their stay in fort worth you know i i remember there's a trip that Karen and I took several years ago, and it was Stephen King's, the name of the book was The Date of the Assassination. I think they write it out as 11-22-63 or something like that. It was a very, Stephen King is a very good writer, but it was total disinformation. He painted a great picture, a great narrative,

and what we enjoyed about it was painting a great picture of what America was like in 1963. It was a time travel thing, right? This guy's got a portal where he can go back in time. And, you know, he witnesses, he tries to stop Lee Harvey Oswald from doing the assassination. He gets involved in all that, but you know, what Stephen King is shilling is this lone shooter thing.

It kind of ruined the novel, but we still enjoyed the detailed period piece because Stephen King is older than we are. He remembers it better than we do, but it was a, it was interesting time. And, and it was really more about that. The portrait that he paints of of the time rather than the disinformation propaganda that he put out there about the assassination steven king is great with atmosphere but his characters are all unlikable dweebs because he's an unlikable dweeb that's right that's right and uh we made the mistake because i don't read Stephen King stuff, right?

We made the mistake after we did enjoy it, and I said, well, you know, even though the whole Lee Harvey Oswald stuff was a bunch of pooey, it was a good thing. So I said we had Audible at the time, and I said, let's get some more Stephen King books for our next trip. And we put one after the other one. You talk about a dark, satanic, obsessed individual. I mean, Stephen King is so dark. We just like, oh, let's turn

that off. We'll try the next one. And it's like, oh, after about a couple of three of them, we gave up on Stephen King. Anyway, going back to this guy, he was genetically incapable, he said, of being a leader or a follower. That's it. See, he knows this guy and he knows his personality, so he knows that he must have done it. So you have to have some physical evidence. A lot of people have been framed for murder, for people jumping to conclusion without any physical evidence. Well, I know that guy did it.

I can just see it in his eyes. Well, you better prove it beyond a shadow of a doubt. You got any proof of this? No, you don't. Again, going back to 9-11, Karen has a cousin who was in one of the towers on 9-11 working in New York. And she got out and she's just absolutely convinced that the government's narrative is true. They can't convince her. I was there.

She said, I was there. I said, well, maybe you can't see the forest for the trees you have. It has nothing to do with you getting out of the building before it collapsed. That has nothing to do with it.

You know, look at the circumstances around this, you know, the planes at NORAD being called away and all, yeah, every, just on and on and on. The physical evidence, the engineering evidence, all the rest of this stuff. I mean, it has nothing to do with you being in the plane. It has nothing to do with this guy having known personally Lee Harvey Oswald and his wife over a number of years and a brother. It has nothing to do with that. Even if his wife believed that he was a lone shooter,

that doesn't make it true. And there's a lot of evidence to contradict that story, to show that it is not possible. Again, what is deductive reasoning? Well, as Arthur Conan Doyle had Sherlock Holmes say, it's when you rule out the impossible, whatever is left, no matter how improbable, is the truth. You just start ruling out possibilities.

That means that as a detective, you're going to start with a bunch of theories about what happened. Many of those are going to involve conspiracies. Most crimes are not committed by a single person. Just take a look at what the FBI does when they charge people. That's why they use that term, conspiracy. Every time they charge somebody with some kind of a crime, they add conspiracy, just like SBF.

You know, and they have, well, money laundering and conspiracy to money laundering, you know, this and that. At LiveScoreBet, we love Cheltenham just as much as we love football.

Well, he pretty much nailed it, didn't he? Yeah, vitriol and uninformed. That's how I would characterize the left as well. He says, which proves my point. So much of what passes for news is just name calling, half-truths, and desperation. I think it's, you know, as Matt Taibbi put it, it's hunting for a demographic and then feeding them what they want to hear, even if you know it's a lie. And I know people on the right and people in alternative media who've become multimillionaires doing that. Some personally. Licked, shook up the network's morning lineup by moving host Don Lemon to the morning and then firing Brian Stelter.

And we all thank him for that. Chris, hopefully we won't see Brian Stelter anywhere. And then this, 80 cities and counties are using pandemic aid to fund guaranteed income pilot programs. We're talking about universal basic income. And I said this from the very beginning when Trump started his PPP stuff. I said, look at how he's doing. He's shutting down middle class, you know, Main Street America businesses, mom and pop shops.

He's shutting them down, telling them they're non-essential. And then he's going to come back with a PPP and say, here's a little bit of money to keep you going. Here's a government handout. I'm going to tell you, you can't work, but here's a government handout. And I'm like, nobody can see how this matches up with the smart cities and the universal basic income and the great reset and all the rest of the stuff from World Economic Forum, nobody was really talking about that at the time.

It's just amazing to me. So I said, this is nothing other than training for universal basic income. And so what are they doing now? Now you've got 80 cities and counties using pandemic money to start their own universal basic income pilot programs. Exactly doing it right now. 82 municipalities across 29 states now doing this and doing it with a COVID money. But don't worry. You know, he was just playing for DHS. He really wasn't implementing and you know, the, the, uh, world economic

forum and, and the UN agenda and getting people acclimated to it. No, Trump wasn't doing that. Trump was playing for DHS. Just take the job and do the universal basic income later. There's now an organization called Mayors for Guaranteed Income, and they're encouraging local governments to seed pilot programs with federal pandemic assistance. Now continuing on to the Biden administration,

who added their American Rescue Plan now to the Trump PPP and the other stuff, which, by the way, these things are just covered and riddled with fraud and every way. Now, the guy who started this group of mayors for guaranteed income, Michael Tubbs, the former mayor of Stockton, California,

they're one of the first places to put in universal basic income. And they have the distinction of being the biggest city to declare bankruptcy. And when they declared bankruptcy, Reuters had a headline that said this, a 15-year spending binge that is culminating in bankruptcy. That was in 2013. They eventually got out of bankruptcy. And then they got this guy and his mayor. And he says, well, we need to just give everybody a guaranteed basic income. Yeah.

He came up with that idea. No, he didn't. As a matter of fact, who came up with that idea? Who was selling that idea? It was, um, Andrew Yang, right? Uh, that's what he made his campaign all about in the early days. And I'd been talking about it for a very, very long time. And this was before the lockdown.

So when a Yang, uh, put out his, uh, campaign thing and it was all about universal basic income, it's like, yeah, I want this guy. And so we scheduled him for an interview. They accepted. Then the morning of they canceled, must've gone back and seen all the stuff that I've been saying for a very long time about, um,

you know, the, um, universal base, basic income. And that was back in 2019. Uh, I'd already been talking about it long enough that he was able to figure out that I was

going to oppose him on this stuff. I really wanted to pin that guy down. I'd like to do some opposition interviews. I just can't get people to come on the show and argue with me. I want to argue with some of these people. I want to debate them over these policies anyway. Much to the chagrin of conservatives and budget hawks, the state and local recovery funds from this pandemic now under Biden. We had the PPP under Trump, and now we've got the ARPA under Biden. This is being used as seed for a long-term policy change, says a guy with DePaul University. But that's what it always was.

And, you know, when we look at this, to me, it just underscores how necessary Trump was for the Great Reset and for the globalists. There's absolutely no way that conservatives and the kind of people who supported Trump, there is no way that they would have stood still for the lockdowns and your non-essential stuff. If Hillary Clinton had said that,

first calling everybody deplorable, then non-essential, shut down. I'm taking your business. Oh, there would have been a massive pushback, but when Trump does it, what is he doing? He's on our side. He can't be with a globalist. The globalists hate him so much. Well, they hate him because of his personality. I mean, they hate him because they're competitors with him. They hate him because he's a self-centered, selfish narcissist, and they know he's not going to play ball with them. That's why they hate him.

He's not just an opponent to them, but he's not going to be part of the club. He's pushing for himself. He's not pushing for you. And so by putting him in, he was essential. They could not have pulled off what they did in 2020 with Hillary Clinton. They wouldn't have had the conservative base go along with it like stunned sheep and then be told by Alex Jones that it's 4D chess. I know it looks like a betrayal, but it's not really a betrayal.

No, it's professional wrestling, isn't it? And he was the announcer for professional wrestling match because of the unprecedented nature of the COVID outbreak. And it's a company slate of federal pandemic related bills. Local governments are spending this money in innovative ways, which makes evaluating how they spend it or plan to spend it a tricky question. So we've got all this money and we can't really evaluate or track it. You know, it's like the money that we give to Ukraine or we throw into Afghanistan or what we, it's just too much. There's too many things. We've got a war. We've got a pandemic. You expect me to keep

accounting records during that? I mean, it just kind of throw the money out there. Forget about it. You know, if it winds up on the Biden laptop, great. But, you know, we can't look at that either. So, um, yeah, it was always a globalist agenda. The pandemic was. So now you got places like Baltimore, Chicago, uh, they're getting into Baltimore. For example, their program is exactly what Andrew Chang supported. A thousand dollars a month.

Verbatim. You can call it guaranteed income. It's universal basic income. It's coming from the UN. It's coming from Davos. It's part of the smart city. Prison cities. The prison cities.

And guess who his biggest supporter was at the time, by the way. You know who gave him so much money to get him started elon musk that's another data point in my long chain of musk things to look at this was like i know who this guy is king of crony capitalism he's delivered on a silver platter for these people everything they said they needed to have in order to save the planet, but really in order to lock us down into a climate prison. He delivered. He became the richest man on earth by delivering for them.

He gave money to Yang in order to push universal basic income. He's always been a part of that. Anyway, Chicago proved the nation's largest guaranteed income pilot program $42 million But they are It's half of what Yang wants And half of what they did in Baltimore But don't worry

Because there's still more than $220 billion Still available And so, you know Get in line for that free money More free money $220 billion still available. And so, you know, get in line for that free money. More free money, and it's still coming from the supposed COVID relief even though Biden says it's over. It ain't.

It was always political. It was never a pandemic. piano plays softly The End You're listening to The David Knight Show.

This story is kind of scary. This is face recognition tech that is used in an entertainment venue to throw a woman out. Does this sound like China? Because it is. Now, this is not invented by China. It was beta tested in China. This is technology that was developed in the U S as a matter of fact, even going back, uh, you know, before DARPA has been pushing this kind of stuff and they, they, they had, uh, databases and, um, casinos, you know, somebody goes in and they're involved in a card counting or something playing blackjack 21. And you can beat it. If you're, if you're good at it, you know,

there's been movies made about that. As a matter of fact, it's really good movie that had, uh, Kevin Spacey in it, but of course nobody can stand to watch it anymore. If we know what we know about his private life. Uh, but it was some very sharp, uh, people. It was based on true story. Some people were very good at math and doing it in their heads and they could keep track of the cards and they could beat the system. So they would identify people who were card counters and they would ban them from the casinos and the casinos would share that information. And the casinos had some of the most sophisticated cameras, and they were everywhere in casinos.

And they could zoom in like you would not believe. As a matter of fact, I did some work for the Department of Transportation in North Carolina, and they had cameras that they put up and down the interstate, and you could turn those things around, and you could zoom in forever. And this is 15 years ago or something. And you could zoom in forever on those things. It's amazing. And you know where they got them from?

The casinos. The casinos were the ones who footed the bill to develop that stuff. And then you had the highway people got those casino type of cameras. But they also pioneered a lot of databases. They were not as sophisticated as they are now. They'll have a lot of people in control rooms, looking at everybody, you know, are they sneaking cards on the table and that type of thing, but also looking at them to see if they recognize them, compare them to some of the known people.

And over the years, I got more sophisticated. Now in this particular case, this is somebody who had gone to New York City to see the Rockettes at Radio City Music Hall for their Christmas Spectacular Show. She was a mom with a group of mothers who had Girl Scout troop that was there. Kelly Conlon and her daughter went to New York City the weekend of Thanksgiving as part of a Girl Scout field trip to see the Christmas Spectacular show. But while her daughter and other members of the Girl Scout troop and their mothers got to go enjoy the show, she was not allowed to do so. Madison Square Garden Entertainment had identified and zeroed in on her as security guards approached her right as she got

into the lobby. It was pretty simultaneous. She said, I think to me going through the metal detector, I heard over the intercom or the loud speaker. She said, um, I heard them say woman, long, dark hair, gray scarf. She said she was asked her name asked to produce identification. And they said, I, she said, I believe they said our recognition picked you up. And there is a sign there that says facial recognition is being used as a security measure. Now, what is it that they have against her at Madison Square Garden?

She is a lawyer. She's an associate with a New Jersey law firm. For years, they've been involved in personal injury litigation against a restaurant venue that has now been purchased by Madison Square Garden Entertainment in New Jersey. And so she said, I don't even practice in New York. I'm not an attorney that works on cases against Madison Square Garden. So I've had no New York involvement.

I've had no involvement with this company per se. She merely works for a law firm that was involved in litigation against a restaurant that they then bought. And then made these people their enemies. And so they have a policy. They said, well, we told you and we sent this to your, we have a policy that if we don't like you, a straightforward policy precludes attorneys who are pursuing active litigation against the company from attending events at our venues until that litigation has been resolved. And we told your law firm twice that, uh, nobody from your law firm is allowed

to come here. And, uh, so she says, um, uh, she's now upping the legal ante. She said, you know, they've got a liquor license at Madison square garden, and that requires them to admit members of the public unless there are people who would be disruptive, who constitute a security threat. If you're going to take a mother and separate the mother from her daughter and the Girl Scouts that she's watching over and to do it under the pretext of protecting disclosure of litigation information, that's absurd.

It's un-American. Well, she's right. Except that these tactics have been developed by our intelligence agencies, Homeland Security, and our technology companies, tested and used for social credit purposes to limit people's abilities to do things in China. And it's going to be used against us the same way. Now, this is a report by NBC. And I was absolutely amazed that whoever wrote this never wondered about where,

what kind of facial biometric database they got this stuff from, right? I mean, stop and think about this. These are not, you know, is this something that's being done internally or is there some kind of biometric database that they have bought into, offered by a private company? That would be a whole story right there, wouldn't it? Or if they got it from the government, that would be a story as well?

You know, did they contact the government and say, you know, here's some individual or somebody through the government and buy this stuff from the government, that would be a story as well. Did they contact the government and say, here's some individual or somebody through the government and buy this stuff from the government, say, here's some names and addresses. I'd like to get their driver's license pictures or something so we can put them in our biometric database and identify them immediately, immediately. Aren't you concerned about that?

Why isn't NBC asking questions about that? Where did they get this biometric database? From whom did they get it? How are they using this? Why has this big corporation got this? No questions asked. They just cover it from the standpoint, well, look, she gets thrown out of the Rockettes show.

There's something far more sinister that has application to all of us. And that is not in the story. In Tennessee, they have found a human heart. This is a strange story. Uh, they found it, uh, as they were preparing, and this is a town that's west of Nashville. They were preparing cause we've got a big winter storm coming everywhere um for christmas weekend apparently so they were at the salt mines or wherever it's not a mine it's a place where they store the salt and they were preparing to load up to put salt on the road for this storm.

And as they were doing it in the salt storage area, they found a human heart, heavily desiccated, and it was shrunk down to a very small size, but still intact. And they noticed it. They asked somebody about it. Obviously, they recognized it. Severely dehyd dehydrated and they're investigating this of course as a murder they said it looked like the heart had been surgically removed and that's the only thing they got uh and yet you look at this and compare it to what's going on with abortion for example a dc abortion clinic Remember the young lady who, um, their group, they got arrested and somebody gave her also,

uh, uh, the remains of babies that have been aborted. She reported it as a crime and the DC police said, Oh, I don't care about that. Right. Yeah. I got all these human parts here. We don't care. Yeah. But you find a heart.

It looks like it's been surgically removed. We're going to look to see if it's murder. But if you got a baby that's been surgically mutilated and murdered, we don't care. As a matter of fact, we're going to arrest you and we're not going to look for the killers. We know who the killers are. We're not going to do anything about that.

We're going to arrest you. That's the way we treat murder in this country, isn't it? So, you know, don't look too hard at what is happening here, but, you know, we have to pretend, just as I said yesterday, you know, you got that Iowa couple who had made arrangements to get their baby adopted. They didn't, the sister was going to adopt her or something, but, you know, they're doing drugs, they're doing meth and stuff baby adopted. They didn't, sister was going to adopt or something, but they're doing drugs, they're doing meth and stuff like that.

They killed the baby and then tried to hide the body. They still haven't found the body. So they're coming after them for murder, and rightfully so. But if all these people who attempt abortion, and you've got a couple of thousand babies in the U.S. alone that survived the abortion, they take them out, they leave them on the table, let them die. It's called Comfort Care by Ralph Northam, former governor of Virginia who was a trained doctor. It was called Comfort Care in the Gosnell trial, stunned the jury, all of whom as a precondition

of being on the jury had to acknowledge that they agreed with Roe v. Wade in principle. But they couldn't believe that that was policy, just as America couldn't believe it when Ralph Northam said it. But that is policy. So how can you have something like that? How can you have Democrats who say, we're going to kill babies right up to and beyond the point of birth? We're going to kill babies who survived the abortion.

And yet they will look at these things. And, you know, it's just amazing the inconsistency of how we treat murder in this country. This is a story from space. A sad message from Mars that makes social media cry. As they have a picture of a robot, you know, that they sent, the lander that they sent, the InSight lander, it's getting covered with dust, as you can see there in the picture.

And so it's losing power because it can't get any sunlight. It runs on solar power. So a sad message from Mars is making social media users cry back here on planet earth. My power is really low. So this may be the last image I can send. Oh, oh, that's so sad. Well, guess what?

All these people who have so much empathy for what I think is just nonsense. Look, NASA PR made this stuff up. These people are looking at this thing and weeping over it, and they have absolutely no empathy for babies, right? I bet these people who are doing it, because you look at the types of things they're saying, it sounds like the planet-hugging leftists that would be supporting abortion.

I blame George Lucas and R2-D2. It's like Star Wars. It's a robot in space. Yeah, maybe. And so the people at NASA say, I can translate droid. Like C-3PO. But what he's saying, sir, is my power is really low. So this may be the last image I can send. Look, NASA is just making this stuff up or some wise guy engineer, uh, put a

message to be transmitted back when, uh, the power was getting really low. You know, he hard coded that in and said, uh, this is going to be, I, I, I'm, you know, I'm dying of power starvation. This is my last message. Arr! You know, he coded that into the program. But, and I know there's a lot of you who don't even believe there is a probe on Mars. I understand your skepticism based on what NASA has done over the years.

But this is all just made up or embellished, uh, to try to get social media attention. And, uh, you know, uh, it's just really obvious. It's the one person says, so why am I crying over a robot? Well, maybe it's because they carry with them the hopes and dreams of humanity. You mean a baby doesn't do that? A baby doesn't do that for you? You look at a baby and say, ah, it's a lump of cells.

That doesn't carry the hope and dreams of humanity, our curiosity, our wonder. Another one says, even if it's only a robot, it's an honorary member of humanity. And I would argue that it is symbolic of humanity itself, but not the babies that they want to kill. They're not an honorary member of humanity. They are not symbolic of humanity itself. Not even a fully developed nine month old baby. No, no sympathy for them whatsoever. Well, you know, we look at how we can get bonded to things other than real people.

That's a real problem for all of us in this technological age, isn't it? Because closer to home, not even in Mars, you have a study that says Americans can tolerate less than four hours with family on holidays. A survey of 2,000 Americans who are traveling to visit family for the holidays found respondents can spend an average of three hours and 54 minutes with their family before needing a moment to themselves. So you just set your watch right there. And they're probably that three hours and 54 minutes that they were with family members. They're probably constantly checking their big brother's smartphone as well, right? We're all

guilty of that to some degree. It's amazing to go in restaurants, isn't it? And see everybody sitting at a table reading their smartphone instead of talking to each other. So how many hours does the average American spend watching television each day? Four hours with a TV, three hours and 45 minutes on our smartphones on average, but we can't spend four hours with friends and family. 95% of respondents believe it's important to spend the holidays with their family and have a guilt trip about that. They know that there is something there. There should be something there.

There's some kind of human connection. I don't know. They're made of flesh, and they're human, but I'd really rather be with a smartphone. Or I'd rather have an imaginary connection to people on a television set or actors or whatever, right? Instead of real people. Or somebody that I meet through the internet.

Somebody that's in the metaverse. And this is how they're going to get us. It's a long continuum. You know, we have been gradually, it's a gradual process of disconnection from each other. You always thought when they talked about the nuclear family, I thought, well, that's kind of interesting, nuclear family. But they meant it as an insult.

They meant it as an insult. They contrasted nuclear family, mom and and dad and the kids, right? Except when they started talking about that as a social phenomenon, they coined the term nuclear family because they had split off from the multi-generational family that we used to have. You know, we used to have, uh, families like have uh families like the waltons you know where you got grandma and grandpa and the mom and dad and the kids and the you know living in in rural areas uh and uh you know multiple generations living under the same house and then everybody started

to you know then then we started having a mobile society where you would get a job and you would travel to another city. You know, that was our life, you know, disconnected from our roots where we had grown up and extended family in an area. And that's a very common experience. And then you wind up eventually splitting the atom. You know, even the nuclear family splits up into individuals who all live by themselves. This epidemic of loneliness. And we just somehow are losing all the ability to connect with each other because we're so connected to our technology. We'd rather have a conversation with an imaginary robot on Mars than, or imaginary characters on television who entertain us.

That's why when something happens to celebrities, you know, they die or something, it strikes a chord with everybody because they feel like they know them, even though they've never met them, don't know what they're like at all. Why, when they would speak on social media would have an influence politically until they spoke too much. And they started to get to really know these people were, uh, but anyway, the average respondent said, uh, staying with family for three

and a half days, the big issue of course was a sleeping arrangements. And I can understand that. That's the difficult thing. Uh, having, uh, people sit on average, uh, two people end up sleeping on something other than a bed this holiday season in a household. Because, you know, when people get together. So that puts a strain. And that is an understandable thing. But, of course, there's always going to be things that kind of get in the way.

I've had several people, on a personal note, I've had several people who have asked about, um, some of the Christmas music. And, um, so let me just, uh, say to some of the people have asked, uh, if they could buy it, that's really encouraging. I really appreciate that. I thank you for letting me know that you like that, that, um, I really do enjoy doing them. I wish I could do more. Uh, I set this thing up actually before I even left uh info wars because i had a project that i wanted to do um but these christmas songs are uh arrangements orchestrations of things that i've played on piano or played uh and bands and that type of thing and a lot of people say where can i get the full song well they're adapted They're only 30 seconds to a minute long.

Typically there's one that's longer. That's about, uh, that's over a minute. Uh, that's the, uh, some children, uh, that's adapted, uh, from, um, I can't remember the guy's name now, uh, Dave Grusin who, uh, did his, his piano arrangement that adapted that from, I shortened it up added some strings and some other things to it but um uh i really like that that arrangement anyway uh so some people ask for the full song there isn't you know the full song is here i've been putting up on a daily basis the videos that we play here because we you know because it's a uh a show that has video with it

we do a video cover of it of all these different songs and so i've put up the videos as well as just the audio by itself for the subscribe star people i hadn't done anything uh for them for a while and so and it's easily downloadable from subscribe star but i'm going to uh upload all the songs in audio format on friday if anybody wants it uh we're going to put it up on the podcast and so it'll be broadcast out as a podcast so we'll put all of them together and there's about a dozen of them or so and so it'll be uh one file that'll have just music on it it'll be all of them together maybe that will be something that people like um yeah i put all this stuff together for music project i've wanted to do for decades but um i do appreciate people saying that and again we're not selling it but just doing it as

uh something that i enjoy doing it and i want to offer it for free to people if you like that. So we're going to be right back. Stay with us. Terima kasih telah menonton Thank you. You're listening to The David Knight Show. Let me say before I get back into the news, I said this is the two-year anniversary of the show, and it has gone by amazingly quickly. And I just want to thank everybody and give you a little idea of what was going on in our lives, in this family, and where we were when we had some listeners stepped in to help us at the beginning of all this.

You know, when I go back and I look at what was happening in 2020, I was just absolutely incredulous that we could have an American president follow and lockstep this globalist agenda that had been practiced for 20 years. I knew everything about it and talked about it so many times on the air. I couldn't believe that he would do that. I couldn't believe that Americans would submit themselves and fear to this. I couldn't believe that they would close down their churches, shut their businesses. Some protested, some resisted, some rebelled, but it was such a tiny minority for the most part. At the beginning of it, everybody was shutting down out of precaution or out of fear.

And so, you know, I look at this, and by the time we got to June, June 21st, 2020, it was a Sunday. It was Father's Day. We were four months into this, and I've been screaming on a daily basis, even before this had happened, for months before it happened, about where this was all leading, how we were never going to be able to get our power back from these people that had seized it. And I just basically, you know, we're looking at this anti-globalist shill, this president, and all the people following it.

So on that Sunday, that Father's Day, I was just so depressed. And I wrote lyrics to a song that I have for my children said it's from Philippians and it goes like this the lyrics one part of the lyrics child of my heart

I want you to know that whatever happens will work for your eternal good. That you without fear know your Father loves you. That's what we were. In joy or in sorrow or in chains. Rejoice about that.

I worked in the midst of a disinformation campaign, which made it even worse. All the people who had been talking about this for decades, all the people who knew the game plan, who saw this being rolled out. Oh, he predicted it 20 years ago. You damn right he did. He knew everything about that and he went along with it because he made record amounts of money doing it.

And Mike Adams, pretending he didn't know what CDC and Fauci were up to, he knew exactly what they were up to. He had covered that lie, that game about vaccines, flu vaccines. They ran the same plays that they did for the flu vaccine on an annual basis. He knew that, but he's putting up charts from the CDC showing that cancer and heart disease are taking a backseat to COVID. Isn't it ironic that now these vaccines from Trump, from Trump, are causing accelerated, turbocharged heart disease and cancer?

When the CDC said, look, COVID's more dangerous than heart disease or cancer. Well, let's make COVID, let's make heart disease and cancer a lot more dangerous then, right? No, it was never that. It was a numbers game. It was a scam, and they knew it. Alex was a limited hangout. He would oppose lockdown, but he'd tell you, don't worry, we got Trump there. We just got to keep Trump in.

That'll solve everything. got to keep Trump in. That'll solve everything. We just keep Trump in. And so when Trump created the lockdown election and lost, two days later, Steve Pachinik comes on and tells everybody this CIA type fable. Oh yeah. We had a cyber security and working with Trump and they put wild water, watermark ballots. And, uh, they got blockchain, uh, watermark ballots and there's this quantum computer thing going on as well. And, and he's already sent out 20,000 national guard and they're arresting people right now, two days later.

And Owen is like, whoa, dude, whoa. Like, oh man, it's like Bill and Ted's excellent adventure, you know, working with these guys. No, I immediately opposed that. I mean, it went big, you know, Rush Limbaugh was talking about it. Didn't mention Alex, but he's talking about it. Alex got 4 million views. You had Clarence Thomas' wife sends an email to Mark Meadows, chief of staff of Trump, saying, I hope this is true.

Is this true? You're doing this stuff? It's like, there's no way that that can be true. Come on. And I've got a recording of me talking to Alex about that. I said, you know, this is not true. Well, I don't know anything about that. You got 4 million views, you know, about, you know, well, I think it's, you know, I mean, it just changed his story in the recording. He was lying, lying to me, lying to all of you. So I was told by his producer, Daria, that Pachinik had called him up and demanded I be fired because I was opposing him everywhere.

I was opposing him on social media. I was opposing him live on air. And he kept coming back to InfoWars. And every time he did, I would oppose him at all those places again and so i was fired six weeks later but it was really at that point they'd added the stop the steel grift you know roger stone recorded on video saying yeah this this election thing this is going to be we're going to raise a lot of money off this it's going to be like falling off a log to raise money off this stuff well that's what they what they did. They put together a stop to steal grift.

You had Alex. You had Ali Alexander. You had Roger Stone. You know, they're going around doing these events with Nick Fuentes and stuff. Right. I don't know if Nick was cut in on any of the money or not. We weren't cut in on any of it. Not that I wanted any of it.

30 pieces of silver. But anyway, by the time we got to the end of December, it was pretty clear that this wasn't just going to stop with their fundraising and speeches. They were heading to Washington. And so I was trying to tell people that's going to be a dangerous, stupid thing to do. First of all, you shouldn't give these people any money. Trump's not doing anything with the money.

Certainly the stop the steal guys of Alex and Roger, they're not doing anything with the money, right? They're not doing anything to overturn the election. Trump didn't do it. Trump was keeping the money. But when we got to that Monday, I think it was the 13th. Yeah. And we got to that Monday, and that was the day that the electoral college votes were tabulated.

And again, you don't have a meeting in a physical building where the people come and they all vote and that type of thing. Uh, these are every political party has a slate of electors. We even did it when we got on the ballot with the libertarian party in North Carolina. Um, you know, you turn into the state, a slate of electors and for your party. And then if your candidate wins, it's a winner take all. And, um, so, um, all of you then get to cast a vote. You don't go anywhere to do it, but you get together and you cast a vote and report. This is who I vote for.

And those votes were all turned in on that Monday. And, um, the, uh, and I said, look, there's nothing that's going to happen with this. I said, here's what could have happened. I wrote an op-ed piece about it. And I talked about it in detail on that Monday. And I said, um, you had four States. We had razor thin margins and you had questions about whether or not the votes were tabulated correctly or not. I said, the Trump administration, they did a half-hearted effort to try to challenge this in court. What they should have done is taken it to the legislatures. Because in these four states that I mentioned, with razor thin margins of victory for Biden, where there were questions about the integrity of the election, I said all four of those legislatures were controlled by Republicans. In two of those states, you had Republican governors as well.

But I said, if you look at the Constitution, it says that the legislature will make the rules for how this is going to be set up. So you could wind up in court with a situation where you had multiple slate of electors. One of them sent by the executive branch, you know, we got the Board of Elections is under the governor. And so they certify one slate of electors according to their official account. But then you could also have a slate of electors that would be coming from the state legislature. And you even had Thomas Massey and Pence,

by the time you got up to January the 6th, they said, well, they didn't give us anything to work with. We've only got one slate of electors from each state. And I've had some people get confused about, well, wait a minute. I saw these electors who got together and said, we support Trump and everything. Those were the people that were on the list of the state party. Those are not people that were being sent by the state legislature or by the state board of elections.

They had no standing to do that unless they were recognized by the state legislature or the governor. So if you have the governor send one state slate of electors and the legislature sends another state of electors, then Pence could have said, I've got competing slates of electors here. I'm not going to make a decision about this. I'm going to send it to the court. But they didn't lay the groundwork for that. So on that Monday, I explained that to people and I said, there isn't anything you're going to do January the 6th, except get into trouble. That's a trap. I didn't know that weekend Alex had been going around speechifying everywhere.

As a matter of fact, he'd paid like $50,000 that weekend to get a spot where he could stand up and speak to the crowd and raise money. So that didn't sit well with him. So by Thursday, I was fired. And I didn't really know what I was going to do. Fired me, fired my sons. Travis was working as my producer. My other son was doing a little bit of work.

It wasn't a big job with him, but, um, you know, I just wanted to emphasize to people that, you know, stop sending your money because nothing is being done. You've missed the deadline. There's, there's nothing to be contested here. They didn't lay the groundwork for any legitimate contest of this. And this is heading for a very dangerous confrontation in Washington DC so anyway that got me fired which is fine because and I mentioned my state of mind throughout 2020 because I was just tired of it that's fine yeah I'm not making a difference people it's like they're sleepwalking

into some kind of a dystopian future that i've been talking about for years so obviously it makes no difference and i just i was just ready to that's fine that's that's it um after nine months of that there's just a little bit of tiny resistance just a little bit of tiny resistance, just a little bit of awareness about that. So I was fired on that Thursday. And then on Friday, as we're talking about what we're going to do in terms of moving back east and moving into something that's in an isolated rural area or something like that. I had Chan and then David and Karen and some other listeners who they knew my email address. I'd set up the Proton email address. So I had, fortunately, I thought about it, but I wanted to have something that was going to be more secure so that I could have people securely send me tips.

So I set up something on ProtonMail and I'd had that for a year or two. And so some people knew that email address and that wasn't cut off. I lost a lot of my communication with people when I, uh, was kicked out because it was email that was coming through InfoWars, but I still had that email address. And so I get this stuff. It's like, somebody sent you something with PayPal. And it's like, I don't even have a PayPal account. What is that about? And so I looked into it and we set it up up, and some people sent us money just out of really kindness, because we were fired just before Christmas, and so that was a lot of encouragement and a lot of support. I was really surprised by that. That weekend, we talked about what we should

do, because we also got a lot of letters saying, you know, please keep your show going or something like that. It's like, oh, I don't know. What should we do? But I wanted to set the record straight. There were a lot of things as Alex was getting all these phone calls from people who were angry that he had fired me from the show and it was getting him angry at me. And he was making up all kinds of nonsense about me. And he had, as I said, he had more stories about why he fired me than Hillary Clinton had about Benghazi. And he was changing them about as rapidly as she did with Benghazi.

So that weekend we talked about, we didn't have any equipment to do a show. We live streamed, we got a little handheld thing for the, for the phone and we live streamed onto my Twitter account and, um, out of the living room. And my son was there kind of holding it and make sure it didn't, didn't fall. And, uh, then we had, uh, you know, we did that and, and, um, people started watching that. And, um, we had listeners who contacted us and said they want to buy us cameras, audio equipment, and all the stuff that we needed. And people just gave it to us. And we just cannot thank you enough for your generosity. So the PayPal thing lasted just a few months and nearly took us under when they cut us off.

Matt Tiabe, Tiabe, brother, contacted me about the PayPal purges and had a little bit of what I talked about. But when we talked on the phone, he said, do you do how do you fund your program and i said it's just people sending us money and he laughed and i said yeah it is i mean it's subscribe star we have people subscribe there people who mail us checks outside of the system um and he laughed about that i thought yeah you know it really strange. I always think about how strange it is. So, I just want to thank you. It is,

it is something that we see God as our provider, but he's done it through you. So I just want to thank you. you're listening to the david knight show and here's more uh messages and tips thank you all of you uh ralph d thank you for the tip he says uh merry christmas god bless you and your family mr knight uh the drive crew loves you well thank you very much uh slim pickens uh david night most solid man in news well thank you that's that's really kind and guard goldsmith is, uh, somebody with the utmost integrity and a great deal of knowledge. And I can't recommend, uh, uh, guard enough.

And he's involved in so many different things, working for MRC TV and, um, Liberty conspiracy and, uh and writing articles. Gard has done so many things in his life. Anyway, thank you, Gard. I appreciate the tip and the kind words. He says, in honor of integrity, with great thanks to your family. Thank you very much.

Happy anniversary, marking the beginning of a powerful life-changing endeavor for so many who admire you. Thank you. Let's talk about what happens if Trump gets indicted, because there's been criminal referrals for Trump. And as we reported this morning, early this morning, they have decided to release the tax returns, release the Kraken, right? So let's talk about all of this. What does this stuff mean? And you know, as I do not support

Trump, but I do not support what the Democrats are doing. It is a McCarthyism. It is a very dangerous, a lot of very dangerous precedents are being set by the Democrats against this. So this is an excellent article from American Thinker. And I don't have the writer's name here on this copy that I've got here, but the article is even if Garland is foolish enough to indict Trump, Trump can still run and win. That's right. And he talks about a very important historical precedent that I was not aware of. And I saw him on call this day. Cause I,

you probably haven't heard of this thought of this either. Uh, he said the problem for the Democrats unfamiliar as they are with the constitution and American history is there is no reason for Trump not to run and win. Even if he's deep in the bowels of Leavenworth or some other federal penitentiary, because when you look at the requirements for president of the constitution, it says no person except a natural born citizen or a citizen of the United

States at the time of the adoption of this constitution shall be eligible to the office of president. Neither shall any person be eligible to the office who shall not obtained to the age of 35 and have been 14 years a resident in the United States. So that's it. You have to be a natural born citizen. There's been a lot of debate and discussion over that. I think that that disqualifies Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, Barack Obama in terms of these things. Anyway, you have to be a natural born citizen, at least 35 years old and living in the U.S. for 14 years. There's no requirement saying that someone charged with having been convicted of or even being imprisoned for any type of crime is ineligible to serve. As a matter of fact, historically, we have already had a felon who was convicted of

sedition run for president while in prison without anybody complaining that he was disqualified. who was that benedict arnold no eugene debs ardent socialist from indiana who was one of the founding fathers of the socialist and communist movements here in america the international workers of the world he founded that they were called nicknamed the wobblies. As a matter of fact, he's got in this article, a cartoon of, uh, Eugene Debs behind bars says, uh, anyhow, uh, there are worse places than a porch. Uh, yours for presidency, Eugene V Debs. And so, uh, I don't know what that was in reference to, but nevertheless, it's a cartoon of him in jail.

Unlike today's American leftists, whose socialism is grounded in race and sexual orientation, the Wobblies, the group that he founded, were pure Marxists who dreamed that the workers of the world would unite in a glorious global socialist paradise. Just kind of like the World Economic Forum does, right? This is one of the reasons why George Gilder, who wrote the book Life After Google, said that the technocracy, the people in Silicon Valley, they're neo-Marxists.

They really are. I mean, these corporations in Silicon Valley, they have a Marxist perspective. As George Gilder put it, their fatal conceit is similar to Karl Marx. Karl Marx believed that with the Industrial Revolution, there was not going to be anything like scarcity anymore. We were going to have an abundance forever of all material things. And so the Industrial Revolution had solved all that.

Now we just needed to figure out how to allocate this stuff. And George Gilder said, the guys in Silicon Valley think the same way. They think their new technologies of, uh, you know, the internet, uh, genetics, robotics, artificial intelligence, nanotech, they think that that's going to create. And we've heard them all say this at one time or the other. They've all said this about each one of those technologies. Any one of these technologies by themselves can help us to have everything that we need, live forever, and all the rest of this stuff, right?

And it's a fatal conceit. It's naive. But it's the same perspective that Karl Marx had. We have infinite material goods. You know, even Karl Marx didn't think that people in the Industrial Revolution were going to live forever. That's a new wrinkle that's been added by Elon Musk and these other people pushing transhumanism. A singularity where we merge with machines and live forever and somehow trends for the essence of what we are as humanity. Somehow we transfer that into machine.

That's just pure wishful projection. You're not going to be able to project yourself into a machine. Come on. You don't even understand. Like I've had the discussions with Zoltan. You don't even, he doesn't even know. He doesn't even have an idea what a human is. And you got other people who,

uh, yeah, I really like Hugo de Garis, but it's kind of a materialism where he thinks that if he can replicate the human brain sufficiently, that it'll spark in the, the artificial intelligence and just spark into being, it'll become a being. All you

got to do is just replicate that human brain and you're going to get a being. Well, why would you think that? I mean, if you do an exact replica of the human body, would you expect it to jump to life? Because, you know, when people die for whatever reason, even if you were to go in and fix whatever it was, they kill them. You know, you got a, you got a bad heart or something? Okay, well, let's put a good heart in. I just found one on a pile of salt over here. But, you know, let's have some water

and reconstitute it and put it in this person. Perfectly good heart. They had a bad heart, so now we got that in there. All right, let's just wait. He's going to come to life. No? No, even Mary Shelley, when she, the crude understanding that people had then, uh, thinking that electricity was somehow the spark to life because they could take rudimentary electricity and apply it to the leg of a dead frog and see it twitch.

Oh, well, that's the spark of life. So Mary Shelley said, oh, we'll stitch together a human being and we'll, you know, put up a lightning rod and use lightning. Prometheus, rebound, right? Reborn or whatever. We'll reanimate this dead body with lightning or something like that. But, you know, I told him, I said, so what do you think it is? What do you think life is?

You don't think that we've got a soul or something? That there's some kind of a connection that once the soul leaves, that's it? Where does the soul come from? Where does it go? You haven't thought about the things that are above the physical. You haven't thought about the metaphysical. You haven't thought about what is above and beyond the natural, the supernatural. You haven't even considered that. I heard one theologian say, you know, when the scientist finally gets to the mountaintop, he's going to see the theologians already there. They're not

thinking about the big problems. They're not thinking about the real issues here. Anyway, let's go back to Trump. How did I get onto that? So we've already had a felon convicted of sedition running for president, Eugene Debs. In 1897, Debs founded the Social Democracy of America, which quickly failed. It, in turn, gave birth to the Social Democratic Party of the United States, the SDP. Debs became a board member. Then in 1900, Debs ran for president as the candidate for the Social Democratic Party of the United States. And when that group disbanded, he joined the Socialist Party of America.

Under the SPA's banner, he ran for president in 1904, 1908, 1912, and 1920. You think Beto is a three-time loser? This guy is a four-time loser and he went for it again. Never gave up, right? And the 1920 election is the one that interests us. Debs had opposed America's involvement in World War I. That is such an interesting period. That saw the split in liberals in America. Prior to that, liberals are people who supported liberty.

And so they would support financial liberty. They would support individual liberty. They would support civil liberty, all these different things. You had people who supported liberty. But what happened was, with World War I, and Wilson pushing that, you had a split. And you had people who were against the war, and taking kind of a more of a civil liberties orientation, and the people who were really, the economic liberty was more important to them. And it kind of split at that point in time.

And then to further drive a wedge into everything, you had the Palmer raids with J. Edgar Hoover, who then used that to launch his career into the massive bureaucracy, the FBI. So it's a very interesting period. Debs opposed the war, the U.S. involvement in it. And as this person says, Woodrow Wilson is actually the father, not just of globalism, but he's also the father of today's expert and race-obsessed progressives.

Truly is. He's also the guy that ushered in the income tax, the Federal Reserve, World War I, all these other things, the League of Nations, you know, the forerunner of the UN. So Wilson identified him as a traitor. This is he had done people who, the guy who did the movie The Spirit

of 76 that talked about the American Revolution. Wait a minute. You're showing the British as bad guys in some of these scenes. You better edit your movie. Oh, he didn't edit his movie. Gave him $10,000 fine, 10 years in jail. Supreme Court said there is no free speech in movies. That was the period of time

around there. Very authoritarian period of time under Woodrow Wilson as a massive restructuring of our country and our values in a very short period of time in our institutions, I should say, for the most part. So Debs was arrested and charged with sedition. Falls under the same umbrella as insurrection. Oh, we all know about that, don't we? Debs was found

guilty sentenced to 10 years in prison, just like the guy who made a movie about 1776. He was also disenfranchised from voting. But what the court could not do was to prevent him from running for president. Despite his conviction and imprisonment on sedition, Debs ran for president in 1920 and got almost 1 million votes, 3.4% of the total votes cast. That'd be really good for a third party today.

Neither his criminal record nor his address, the Atlanta Federal Penitentiary, was a barrier to his candidacy. In 1923, Warren G. Harding commuted his sentence to time served, and he lived another three years, dying at 70 from heart failure. So here's the lesson to learn from all this. As he points out, you look at the Constitution, there is nothing in there that says that you're disqualified if you are a felon. You just have to be an American citizen, natural citizen. Over the age of 35, Trump's well over that. Live in the country for 14 years, he's well over that as well.

So the Democrats' recurring fever dreams about knocking Trump out under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, the disqualification clause, is nonsense, both objectively and historically. Objectively, because we know that clause, ratified in 1868, was intended to apply to men who had served or aided the Confederacy. The clause was also rendered null by the 1878 Amnesty Act, which came after it. They're also nonsense historically because the clause did not bar Debs, a convicted seditionist, from running for president. So the law was specific.

The law was overruled with the Amnesty Act. And nobody thought that it applied to Debs. And even though he was convicted and imprisoned for sedition, he was allowed to run for president and get three and a half percent of the vote. So the conclusion this guy has, which is exactly right. He says, look, if Garland is wise, he will refuse to charge Trump with anything because if he does so, he will make Trump a martyr.

That's exactly right. And that's what's happened so far. The thing that's really, it's interesting. The thing that keeps Trump going like this energizer bunny is their persecution. That is a single thing. When I talk to people about this, well, if Trump isn't on our side,

why are they attacking him? It's this bifurcated vision of the world. Everything is either this or that. It's the Republican or Democrat. You're either with us or you're against us. And if you're, you know, if they're against some guy, that means he's good. No, I say Stalin and Hitler, right? They were united against us.

Then Hitler attacked Stalin and then Stalin joined us. That didn't make Stalin a good guy, except to the left. They loved Stalin. And then Stalin joined us. That didn't make Stalin a good guy, except to the left. They loved Stalin. But no, they're just competing groups of criminals or dictators. Patrick, thank you very much. Patrick S., thank you for the tip. I appreciate that. Frank Wood, thank you as well. David, you're truly a man of, well, I appreciate that, but you know, I'm just a person like everybody else. Uh, may God continue to bless you and your family. We all depend on you and what you do. Well, thank you. I appreciate that. Greg talent. Thank you for the tip. The harps, the boss, I hope Karen is feeling better. Her ankle is, um, again, she,

like I said, she had several things happen this weekend. She had a tick bite that got us really worried because it really flared up. The thing dug in. We didn't realize it was there. And because Lyme disease, courtesy of your federal government, is a thing around here. We were concerned about that, but it didn't turn into a ring and it started to come down as well. So thank you for your concern and prayers. Appreciate that. Let's talk a little bit more about Trump as they're coming after him. Even the New York times says, I just told you they have no

way they can stop him from running. All they can do is turn them into a martyr. Even if they put them in jail, they can turn him into a martyr. And he will continue to divide everybody into people with him and people against him and so forth. He'll continue to divide the Republican party into oblivion. But the New York times says the release of his tax returns, tax returns could herald a new era for taxpayer privacy. I would say it'd be a new error.

E R R O R. This is written yesterday, this morning, uh, as I was checking the news about seven o'clock is about an hour or two old news announcements that yes, they have decided that they're going to go through with this. They're going to return,

release the returns, release the Kraken. And so the New York Times says, as a presidential candidate in 2016, Trump teased that he would release his tax returns, that it was imminent, the release of the returns. But he never did that. And he came out and he said, they quote him,

I have a very big returns, as you know, and I have everything, big returns, as you know, and I have everything all approved. Very beautiful. And we'll be working that over in the next period of time. This is not like a normal tax return. And I defended him on that. Years ago, I said, look, you know, here's the thing about the income tax. As many people have said about other laws, but it is especially true of the income tax.

A law that is sufficiently complex is the same as having no law at all. If nobody understands what the income tax is, including the people that you contact at the IRS. We're not telling you anything about this. You know, it's, uh, it's too complicated. It's too subjective. And that's the whole problem. You know, just like Joe Bannister that I've interviewed so many times, uh, agent of truth.com is his website. He's, he's a solid guy.

He really is. He was a criminal investigator for the IRS. And as he was investigating, some of these people they said were criminal, he decided that he would look at their arguments and try to debunk them. And as he looked at their arguments, these tax protesters, so-called, they were constitutionalists, actually. As he looked at it, he says, I don't see any way to debunk it. So he asked his supervisors, and that got him in trouble.

And he kept looking at it. They turned against him, and so he eventually wound up getting kicked out. And it didn't even have anything to do with him questioning the income tax. At one point, he said, because they were doing a criminal investigation, which meant that they carried a gun gun and they got paid more money than the typical IRS agents and stuff like that. But every year, because they were doing criminal investigations, they had to be audited. And so he said one year he went in and the, uh, the IRS agent that was auditing him had

an attitude about it. You know, like, oh, oh, you got your gun. Oh, I think you're big, big shot here. That type of thing. Right. Uh, you think you're somebody, huh? Well, I'm going to cut you down to size. That type of deal.

Didn't say that, but you know, that type attitude. And, uh, so the person came up with this, uh, you know, oh yeah, you owe several thousand dollars more. And so he contested that. And after it was all done, they wound up owing him several thousand dollars because he had done his taxes very conservatively up to that point. And so that's the issue. You know, if you've got a law that is sufficiently complex,

and this is what we should be concerned about with the army of 87,000 IRS agents that Biden wants to unleash on us, that the Republicans are doing nothing to stop. Uh, when these people bring you in to audit you, the law is going to be whatever they subjectively believe it is because it's so complex. You can say, well, this is the way that I interpret it. And I interpret it to my advantage, right? Uh, there, this is the way that I interpret it, and I interpret it to my advantage. The law has to be simple and direct, or it's lawless, because the people who interpret it, the people who enforce it, can make it mean whatever they want if it is sufficiently complex. And so not only is the IRS code very, very complex, but Trump's tax returns are very, very complex. And I've said this for years, and I'll continue to say it. Again, I think he is a failed president in the most charitable view of history.

I think, in my opinion, he's a traitor. But come after him for the real stuff. This is to me, this is like coming after Dennis Hastert because he withdrew his money in a way to not draw attention to it. When he was being blackmailed for being a pedophile, they don't want to talk about him being a pedophile, but they'll talk about him taking his own money out of the bank in a way to avoid reports. It's like, are you kidding me? You shouldn't even have that law there. You should have a law against people who are pedophiles, and you shouldn't protect them with some phony statute of limitations.

He should be going to jail for what he was being blackmailed for. But you're going to send him to jail because of this know-your-customer money laundering nonsense. So that's what we're looking at with Trump. You know, I think for his complicity in this globalist agenda, for him getting rid of and bragging about how it was an accomplishment to get rid of the testing of the vaccines, he should go to jail. He should go to jail for that.

That resulted in the murder of people, whether he did it willingly, knowingly, or stupidly. He should go to jail. Manslaughter. We're talking about manslaughter versus premeditated murder. That's the difference that we're looking at here. So you could fight about that in the court, but it's objectively the case. You know, people get so upset when I call it the Trump shots. Why is it the Trump supporters get angry at me when I call it the Trump shots? Boy, that really sets them off. So I'll put it in the title a lot of times.

Why is it? Because they know how they're killing people and crippling people. They know it's evil. And so they don't want to dissociate with Trump, except Trump associates himself with it. Trump calls himself the father of the vaccine. You know, in a way, I'm like the father of the vaccine. I take all credit for it, you know?

Well, give him the credit. Well, Mark Levin was saying in January 2021, look at this, you got Joe Biden is taking credit for the vaccines. Trump did it. Trump should take credit. Take the credit back from him. Trump, you know, this guy's I said, yeah, give him the credit. And I like a lot of people mad at me because I criticize Mark Levin.

It's like, uh, I got to tell you what I, how I see it and call the balls and the fouls as I see them here. So his tax, we've got a, a, a tax law that is so complex that he, that only in the most obvious circumstances, is it clear what's going on with wages or something like that? Which, by the way, the income tax is not a wage tax. They didn't start taxing wages until World War II, and they said that was going to be a temporary thing. They never took it off. The income tax was supposed to be on real income. It was supposed to be on the 1% of the 1%. And it was only about 1% that they charged them for things, for passive income, what we call passive income, investment income, and things like that today. That was the only thing that was taxed.

They made it a wage tax and snuck that in us without any, um, you know, uh, without any real oversight during world war two and kept it on. So, um, the whole thing is a fraud. But this gives them all the weapons that they need. They can multiply his complicated tax return with all these different companies and different countries. They can multiply the complexity of that times the complexity of the income tax system itself, and they'll have a field day with this stuff.

And so you're going to see a lot of reports about, you know, what he was doing. Then they may find some criminal activity there. I wouldn't be surprised. I mean, he's dealing in New York. He's paying off politicians. He made most of his money in New York City. Legendary corruption there. And so I'm sure they're going to find some criminal stuff in there,

but they can find some things with the income tax as well. So on Tuesday, the House Ways and Means Committee was going to vote, and they did vote yesterday, to make public six years of his tax records. The action was made possible, says the New York Times, after the Supreme Court last month declined to block the Treasury Department, which oversees the IRS, from releasing the returns to Congress. So the Treasury Department was going to do it to Congress. Some people, you know, they pushed back against it. And so the Supreme Court paved the way for this, gave them the ability to do it. And they've announced this morning they're going to release the records.

The formal release of Trump's tax records would represent both a significant act of transparency and what some fear is the end of an era of taxpayer privacy. Do you really believe that? This is the New York Times. If they get revealed, says John Koskinen, who served as the IRS commissioner during the Obama and Trump administrations. He says, if they get revealed, it seems to me they ought to have a pretty good reason for why that's in the public interest. It is a dangerous precedent. He said, well, I, I don't think the income tax stuff is secure. Nothing is secure.

I think the CIA has had their data hacked. They had their, the, uh, CIA, CIA, or the NSA, whoever was running vault seven, maybe both of them, you know, they had a program. They had a manual for how they were going to hack other people. And they got hacked exposing that in vault seven, we can hack other people and we can make ourselves look like we're Russians or Chinese or South Korean or North Koreans or whoever we want to. Right.

And they got hacked and that was released. Anything can be hacked. Records have been hacked to the military, out of the Pentagon, all the rest of this stuff. So, uh, there is nothing secure about that. Number one, but it is a dangerous precedent because what we're seeing right now is full-on criminalization.

And what they're releasing is not really just Trump's tax returns, but they're releasing a monster of incrimination and revenge. That's going to be very dangerous in politics because believe me, the Republicans are going to do it back when they've got the power, they're going to come after you. And so, uh, there, there's so much corruption there and they typically have just had this, you know, honor among thieves that they wouldn't expose the other guy's criminal stuff.

You know, they have, um, I always think of Washington as that Looney Tunes commercial where you got, uh, uh, not commercial, but a cartoon where you've got, uh, the sheepdog and the coyote come in and they punched the clock and Hey, how you doing Ralph? Oh, I'm doing okay. And they both punch in at each other's throat and then the bell rings and it's the end of the day and they go back and they punch out, you know, you're going to go get a pizza. Yeah. Let's go get a pizza.

You know, that type of thing. And that's the way the Democrats and the Republicans are. They come after each other, but then they, they hold it back and they don't really come after each other, even though they know each other's crimes, they don't bring them out to light. And this is about to change. And so I expect that it's going to increase the political warfare to another level. Presidents are not required by law to release their tax returns.

This has been something that's been done voluntarily in the past to demonstrate to the American public that they have nothing to hide. We might ask if they've got nothing to hide, how did Obama and Pelosi become so wealthy? Right. Uh, we know how they operate. We know that the speeches and the honoraria that they get,

especially after they leave office are payoffs. We know that they're doing insider trading and that's just the tip of the iceberg. There's a lot of other stuff that's going on with this stuff as well. One of the reasons that you don't have people coming in from private life into this, and this is what's really dangerous about this precedent, it's going to discourage anybody who's actually done anything other than being a politician running for office. Because if you've worked in the real world and you a bureaucrat or politician who's on a salary and they will take deferred compensation. So if they can move their way up the ladder,

then that's when they get the payoff. But that gives them a very, very simple wage return and they can, um, they have no problem showing that, right? Oh yeah. Yeah. I don't have all that much money. People are just contributing to a political action committee on my behalf. But it's an advance auction that they put in there. And so they can release those tax returns. This is going to discourage anybody who has been involved in business, who's done anything, accomplished anything from getting in there, because they know that everything that they've done is going to be examined and twisted and made

public. Ways and means Democrats are unleashing a dangerous new political weapon, says the New York Times, that reaches far beyond President Trump, that jeopardizes the privacy of every American. Well, that was actually not the New York Times. They're quoting Kevin Brady of Texas, the top Republican on the Ways and Means Committee. He said, going forward, partisans in Congress have nearly unlimited power to target political enemies by obtaining and making public their private tax returns to embarrass them and

to destroy them. It's going to be recrimination and revenge escalating as if Washington isn't already a dirty enough place. This is going to make it far worse. MJ Nichols, thank you very much. I appreciate that. It's very kind. No one does Mark Levin like David Knight. Merry Christmas.

Well, most people don't want to, uh, come after Mark Levin and make fun of him. That's a lot of people could do a better impression than I do. They don't want to. It doesn't, uh, make me any friends in media to do that type of thing. I can tell you, but, uh, I don't care. Trump urges Congress to take three crucial actions to address the border crisis. Wow. Maybe this guy should be president. He knows all about how to fix the borders.

Oh, wait. Oh, wait. You had your chance, Donnie. You didn't do it then. Did you? He's pretending that he does. He's pretending that title 42 protected the border. Look, it's not as bad as what Biden is pretending to do or planning to do, I should say.

But as I pointed out yesterday, Title 42 was not about protecting the borders. Title 42 was really more about protecting the pandemic narrative. And, you know, it did not stop people coming across the border illegally. It didn't stop drug trafficking. It didn't stop human trafficking. It didn't stop any of that stuff. We got thousands of people coming across all the time. But it's going to be worse when you remove it.

Because when you remove it, they're's going to be worse when you remove it because when you remove it, they're not going to have any legal justification, presumably. I don't know why that's the case, but you know, they're going to pretend they don't have any legal justification, send people back over to the other side, even if you can't catch them. And there's a lot of them that are not being caught. Why is that? The border is completely open and he didn't build the wall, but the wall wasn't going to stop it anyway.

You know, just like Karen used to teach the kids, prepositions. It's anywhere a mouse can go. You can go under the wall. You can go over the wall. You can go around the wall. You can, you know, all this type of stuff. A mouse could get through there, and guess what? All these people who have a financial incentive, look, they can make a lot of a financial incentive look they can make a lot of money selling drugs they can make a lot a lot of money selling humans

and a lot of people for whom they don't want to do that they can make a lot of money off the welfare system if they come we've got a giant magnet with all these different things and so um that's what's drawing them through and even if even if you've got some kind of a barrier to something, if you suck hard enough, you're going to suck the people right through that wall or over the wall, under the wall, around the wall. And we've got a gigantic door there. That's about 1500 miles wide, uh, in this wall that Trump and his imagination put up. So, uh, he said, this is what Trump said.

He said, Biden is getting exactly what he always wanted. The termination of the most effective border security policy in modern history. What a joke with this poorest border. He wants to tell everybody I had it fixed. I'd solve the problem. No, uh, that's the way it's being represented. Uh, again, it was not to protect the problem. No. That's the way it's being represented. Again, it was not to protect the border. It was to protect his COVID narrative.

That's why he put together Title 42. So here's the three steps, he says, of what has to be done to protect the border, because he knows. First, Trump called on Congress to include a total, all uppercase, and all uppercase permanent ban, and a federal spending bill on any president using taxpayer dollars to release illegal aliens into the country. What have I been telling everybody? Everybody says Trump didn't do it. The Republican, you know, it's these bad Democrat governors who are doing it. Trump didn't do it. Uh, the Republican,

you know, it's these bad Democrat governors are doing Trump didn't know. I said, he funded it. You get what you want when you fund it. And if you don't like it, you stop the funds to it. And that's what he said.

I don't like illegal aliens coming across the border. So anybody, any president that uses taxpayer dollars to release these illegal aliens. Well, we're going to have a federal spending bill to stop money to that president or something. I'm not really sure what he's proposing. How do you stop? How do you do a federal spending bill on any president using taxpayer dollars?

You can block the funding for the release, I guess. Is that what he's saying? If somebody's doing something you don't like, like they're telling tranny boys that you can't go in the girl's locker room and showers, well, I don't like that. I'm going to cut your funding. What if you tell people, I'm going to destroy your business and I'm going to make you wear a mask?

Well, I don't like that. I'm going to cut their funding. He didn't do that. He kept the funding going. So that was the first thing. And it just shows all the people who are excusing Trump throughout all this COVID stuff. As I said before, this is the other shooter drop from 9-11. They did dark winter. They had 9-11. The week after they had the anthrax attack. The week after that, they did the Model State Health Emergency Powers Act because they were going to run it through the states.

They practiced doing that 20 years. We're going to run it through the states, and we're going to call it a federal emergency, and we're going to give them the cash to run it. That's the way the thing was designed to work. That's the way they practiced doing it for 20 years. But you don't have to even know that. You just have to know that if a president doesn't like what somebody's doing, they cut off the magic money spigot because that's the way they get everything done. They can just print up unlimited amounts of money. They're about to

spend $1.7 trillion. Where'd they get it from they just made it up uh they just started printing it or as jerome powell the federal reserve president said well we can't print that much so we just create the credits on a computer right secondly trump says congress needs to codify all trump era immigration policies and the federal law make title 42 permanent. Well, title 42 is just about COVID and testing and things like that. So we're going to keep the border, um,

shut down because of pandemic rules and maybe add to it. Vaccine rules like Biden did at the border between the U.S. and Canada? Is that what Trump is saying? Is that how we control the border? We control the border by pandemic rules that block people from traveling? Because you know we'll all die. Or we could block people from traveling because if you use energy, fuel will all die from the planet dying, you know. That's right. That's the way they want to do it. So finally, the former president,

current presidential candidate, as they point out on Breitbart, urged Congress to establish, quote, criminal penalties for any senior official or political appointee who orders, aids, or abets the mass release of illegal aliens in the United States. What about DACA? Why didn't Trump get rid of DACA? It was not a law. It was an executive order from the previous president's attorney general saying we're not going to enforce the law, which they'd sworn to do.

And so I don't did. If you don't get rid of that, if you don't tell people you got to enforce the law, how is that? And if you go along with DACA, because you don't want to pay the political price of ending the program and you kick it over to the Supreme court, say,

it's not my issue. I don't, I can't decide that, you know, that that was Obama's executive order in the Supreme court. It's got a rule where the night I can get rid of Obama's executive order. Is that not aiding and abetting? Is that not passively aiding and abetting that gets or Gates, um, is, um,

had some, I saw this, this is actually the hill reporting on it. And I saw some conservative news aggregator saying, uh, look at this. Uh, Matt Gates goes, uh, uh, goes off on Trump. You know, he's, he's, uh, he's got, he's toast now. Oh, he criticized Trump. Uh, I'm not a Matt Gates fan, but,, but he does have this right. He said when, and this is what is happening with, with Trump is lining up behind Kevin McCarthy.

Kevin McCarthy has been kissing the ring every chance he gets of Trump. And so Trump is now responding, you know, he's my little, you know, he's my guy. And so he says, responding, you know, he's my little, you know, he's my guy. And, uh, so he says, um, Kevin has worked very hard and I think he deserves the shot. Does it matter what he thinks, what he's done in the past? I don't know. Anyway, uh, Matt Gates is with the group of conservatives who would like to see a conservative speaker in the house instead

of Kevin McCarthy. And so when he was asked about this, he said, well, HR human resources was not always Trump's best thing. Yeah. He doesn't do a great job of picking people in his administration to assist him. And he doesn't do a great job in terms of, um, picking candidates either. He's had a long history of people like Oz and Herschel and that babe that he tried to get put into Congress here in Tennessee, who had always been a Democrat until she got a job in the Trump white house. And, uh, you know, know, she had absolutely no integrity politically to be a Republican.

Anyway, that's the kind of thing that he's done. But so Matt Gaetz says, so maybe we ought to have a choice come out of the House that represents the conservative center of our caucus. I'll be for Trump for president, but I will not follow him in supporting Kevin McCarthy for speaker. So, uh, that's where things stand there. It's been, um, interesting to see how these things work out. Carrie Lake, one of Trump's HR picks that I think was not very wise,

but she has, um, she is probably, even though she didn't win the election, I think she's one of the more successful celebrity picks the celebrity rhinos that, um, Trump has picked and make no mistake about it. Carrie Lake is a rhino. She has hitched her wagon to the election corruption stuff, and I'm sure she loves the fact that she lost in a close election because this is her ticket to ride, and she is going to ride this thing for everything it's worth. I'll just remind you, if you think that she's a conservative,

go back and look at her history. And I didn't focus on her during the election because it's a state issue, people involved there. But she is a much more effective speaker than Trump is. But when it comes to her political positions on issues, when it comes to her history, she's nothing more than Trump in a dress. But she's a lot more effective speaker and a much better debater and more confrontational.

So she's going to be bombastic. She's going to be belligerent, but she's portraying herself as a victim and a martyr. And she was right there with Trump when they had the big Mar-a-Lago LGBT festival right after the celebration at Biden's White House. That's where she's coming from. She is hardcore left on social issues, on economic issues, the rest of the stuff. But she is all about being a victim of the kind of new corruption that was issued in by her mentor, Trump. We'll be right back. Thank you. ¶¶ you're listening to the david knight show all right welcome back and uh as uh eric peters and i've been warning you for a long time now

we can all say i told you so it doesn't do me uh any good say this, but we now see that as they have been burdening the grid, the electrical grid, with everything, all transportation must be powered off of the grid. All heating of homes must be powered off the grid. And this isn't just Europe. This is happening in New York City. They have outlawed any additional heating that is not going to be electric in New York City. So we put everything, we centralize and centrally control all energy. And at the same time, they shut it all down.

So this is happening now in Switzerland. They're planning to restrict the use of electric cars during this energy crisis. And they said some folks in the UK are getting hit with bills that exceed $10,000 a month. This is why businesses are shutting down. They've already had big factories that were built that were manufacturing, you know, um, metals from raw materials and things like that. So we, we can't, that takes a lot of energy.

Uh, we just can't compete with the Chinese now because you know, the Chinese are building cheap coal power plants. They don't have to clean up the air coming out of them. They don't have to be clean. They can build as many as they want. It can be as dirty as they want, which makes it cheap. It's expensive to clean.

It can be done. It costs money, but the Chinese are not burdened with these regulations. Neither are the Indians. And these regulations neither are the indians and so you got the two most populous countries on earth under the terms of the paris climate treaty can build as many of these factories as they want and they don't have to clean anything up he says um this is coming out of uh this is from daisy luther she said a lady I know who lives in the UK told me that her smart meter read that they are using the equivalent of $58.78 a day in power. And they're only heating their living room and using lights.

And it isn't full-on winter yet. Well, we're going to get full-on winter this next week. I don't know. I mean, there's a lot of places that are colder than it is here. Even in Austin, where we're from, they're getting down into the low teens. We're supposed to, and maybe even single digits. Of course, they don't know because we're three or four days out from this stuff. And they can't predict the weather that far in advance.

But there's a general consensus that things are going to get really cold. And they're predicting like two degrees here as a low so we'll wait and see what happens with it um the uk telegraph is talking about uh what the swiss are saying they have different emergency tiers so they have different emergency tiers. So they have different restrictions depending on which emergency tier they're in. We've had a COVID emergency, a pandemic emergency. Now we are having a planet emergency, a climate emergency,

because that's where this stuff is all coming from. So they said the lowest level, they're going to go, in the words, uh, DEFCON three on electric power usage here. Uh, the lowest level we'll see public buildings heated to no more than 20 degrees Celsius at 68 degrees Fahrenheit. People asked to limit their washing machines to 104 degrees Fahrenheit. They'll just give the temperatures in Fahrenheit. Under the next level, temperatures will be lowered to 66 degrees Fahrenheit. And streaming services will be asked to lower the resolution of videos from HD to standard quality.

This is how they're going to micromanage it. Even to tell the streaming services, you've got to lower the resolution of the videos. If the situation worsens, shops will be asked to close two hours early, and electric vehicles will be limited to essential journeys. Crisis measures could see hot water disabled in public bathrooms and the use of electric leaf blowers barred. Next, so go blow the leaves off right now. They've already fallen.

Blow them into a stack right now before they outlaw that. Next, escalators will be stopped. Going down, I hope. And outdoor Christmas lights will be turned off oh no what will our neighbors do i don't know they got this massive display of uh they must have a 50 santa clauses and everything else that you can buy out of the yard it's actually kind of i'm not criticizing it we enjoy seeing it but uh they might have to turn the lights off. If we get in a situation like this, if Biden and the Democrats continue down this path, that's going to go dark.

Um, cryptocurrency mining will then be banned. And I told you this is coming. You know, they're complaining all the time about the massive amounts of use from cryptocurrency money because it's proof of work. And, uh, these people will just say, well, you know, we don't want to's proof of work. And these people will just say, well, you know, we don't want to have proof of work. We have the authority. We tell you, you know, it's proof of authority.

I'm telling you this is an official dollar, and I'm telling you what it's worth, and that's it. And we don't have to mine anything. So cryptocurrency mining would be banned if supplies keep dropping, along with swimming pools closed. I guess this would be indoor swimming pools in Switzerland at this time of year. And lights in sports stadiums turned off. And the most extreme shortages, sports matches, concerts, and theater performances will be

canceled. This is starting to look exactly like our covid lockdowns the climate lockdowns that's exactly what we're looking at and of course it's already been discussed you know this happening in california and other places they go straight from you got to buy an electric car to uh you better not charge it you better not charge you better anyway uh toyota as eric was pointing out and You better. Anyway, Toyota, as Eric was pointing out, and I've pointed out in the past as well, we pointed out when I talked to him yesterday,

he said, yeah, Toyota is pushing back against this. Look, Toyota wants to sell cars for whatever reason. I don't know. I mean, you know, GM and Ford, they don't care about selling cars anymore. Stellantis, which used to be Chrysler, they don't care about selling. They want to rent. And not just lease a car to you.

They want to rent it to you by the ride. They want to be mobility companies and they want to do everything the government says. Yeah, we're your guy. Whatever you say, Ralphie, I'll do it. Just tell me and you give me the concession. Okay. You remember this? I supported you when we did this.

So I get to be one of the two or three companies that are going to be renting transportation by the ride. Now we'll have the golf cart concession so that you can go, you know, travel to your heart's content within this little 15 minute area and a city. So Toyota chief says the silent majority has doubts about pursuing only electric vehicles. Good for him. You know, that's the interesting thing about it.

They keep coming back and they say, Oh, you want an electric, uh, you know, no emission vehicle. We can do that. We can do that.

We can make, um, we can make an electric, and we don't have to have a battery. We can do it with some kind of a fuel that we fill up or something. No, no, no. You will charge. You'll have an electric car, and it will charge off the grid. That's all we care about. We don't care about the emissions. We don't care if it's electrical.

We don't want to work out the issues of any alternative system or any additional issues in terms of infrastructure. Uh, we don't want anything other than a system that's going to have everybody tied to us on a centrally controlled grid that we possess. They've shut down all these other things. So, you know, uh, you've seen it with the technological developments first in, um, you know, in Germany, they said, Oh, you're worried about emissions. Well, we can, we can clean up the diesel fuel. Uh, we can make a diesel engine that gets a hundred miles per hour. And that's when Volkswagen got hit with $4 billion in terms of fine. They got the message real quick. They pulled all the diesel cars off.

And it said, we're going to lead in electric vehicles now. They got the message. You either do what we say or we're going to shut you down. We don't want you coming up with diesel stuff. We don't want, you know, Mazda comes out and says, well, okay, we got a new way that we can do internal combustion engines. We can take a gas engine and we can start it up like a typical gas engine, but then we can switch over to a mode where it operates via compression, like a, like a diesel engine.

And we can actually get more power and better gas mileage from that. It's like, shut up. You're going to shut these things down. You're going to go battery electric, or you're not going to manufacture anything. Well, the president of Toyota said that he is among the auto industry's silent majority. They know, these are engineers, they know there's other ways to do this. They need to speak out, not just about, well, you know, there's another way that we could do this. They need to say, and this is why these people don't want you to do it another

way, because it's about control. He said there's a silent majority that questions whether electric vehicles should be pursued exclusively. Comments that reflect a growing uneasiness about how quickly car companies can transition. It's never been the interest of these people to have a transition to an alternative way of doing this. From the very beginning, when you look at the very first Earth Day, and I've played the clips for you, they're out there screaming, ban all cars, ban all cars.

I've heard this my entire life. I know that's the agenda. They want to kill 90 plus percent of the people, or probably more than 90 percent. They want to kill most of us. Depopulation and banning the cars and all the rest of this stuff. He said automakers are making big bets on fully electric vehicles. This article says, investments that have been bolstered by robust demand for the limited number of models that are now available. Still, challenges are mounting, particularly in securing parts

and raw materials for batteries. They're not idiots. I mean, they're out there. They're trying to build this stuff. It's like, well, where are we going to get more lithium? Where are we going to get more nickel? Where are we going to get more of this? And even as they don't have enough, you know, they say, well,

if we want to continue to sell cars and they're all going to have these batteries in them, that means we're going to need to have X amount of these raw materials. We're not anywhere close to that. I mean, we need several orders of magnitude more of this raw material, but what do they do? Even though that doesn't exist, that's not good enough. Oh no, we're going to shut down the, typically the number one or two or three supplier in the world, Russia, we're going to embargo. Russia's got the largest landmass of any country. And so they have tremendous mineral resources. So we're going to embargo all of that in a sanction and you're not going to get access to any of that stuff.

So we're going to take all that off the board. Um, so, uh, could Tesla's charger become the U S standard for EV charging? Wall street journal looks at this and says, well, you know, people who are involved in the auto industry are largely a silent majority, he said, in Thailand. He said that silent majority is wondering whether or not EVs are really okay to have as a single option. But they think it's the trend, So they can't speak out loudly.

Here's the issue. Whenever you see mandates and threats that you're going to do things one way, you know, this is the government, you know, that's political. You know, that there's no reality. There's no medical reason for us to only have the vaccine and remdesivir, and you will not have any other treatment. You will do exactly. We got one way to treat this stuff. You're going to put people on ventilators. You're going to give them remdesivir. You're going to give them vaccines. When we got those available, anybody that does anything else, you're going to be purged.

You're going to be outed as a liar, a criminal, a fraud, a dangerous person who's killing people. We're going to take you out of your profession. We're going to do all these things to you. This is the same game plan. And they're not going to defeat it if they don't call it out for what it is. You know, he says, well, we've got a silent majority. Well, the majority needs to speak up, and the majority knows this isn't going to work. And they needed to do more than just say, it's not going to work.

They need to point out that the emperor has no clothes, but he's got an agenda. This is naked tyranny. And we need to point out what the end game is here. So, um, all the major rivalries, rivalries are jumping down the EV road. But again, Toyota is trying to hedge their bets because I guess they're looking at this and saying, well, you know, the politicians are taking everybody down this path, but it can't possibly work. And then what happens if we're the only game in town that has automobiles? You know, the Japanese government is not nearly as suicidal as a lot of these other

governments. They do like Japan incorporated. They would like to get more power. So they're going to kind of help them in this. The Mises Institute has an article, forget oil. Now they're coming for the cows. Well, I don't want to forget oil either, because if we don't have oil, we're not going to be able to get the cows to market The cows are either meat or they're dairy They want to get rid of both meat and dairy I've read you the C40 group It's not 40 cities

But it's just under 100 cities And their wish is that nobody has any meat Nobody has any dairy That you're going to get three articles of clothing that you can buy per year. You will have one trip on an airplane every three years, and that trip will be under 1,000 miles, and on and on. No private automobiles, no nothing. It's all tied together.

If you don't have oil, you're not going to have the fertilizer for the feed. You're not going to be able to get the product to market, any of that stuff. It is all tied together. But it is important for people to understand that they're coming for food. You know, they have demonized energy by calling it carbon. Well, nobody likes carbon. It's sooty. It's dirty.

It sounds dirty. Oil feels dirty. It can be a real environmental issue if it's a spill and that type of thing. But you make it about the cows, and they start to pay attention. And so this is an article from the Mises Institute going into detail about the efforts to shut all this down, especially in the Netherlands. They're taking the lead on all of this. This article from Daily Skeptic, how billionaires fill the media with climate fear and panic.

And that's exactly it. It's coming from the billionaires. They're the ones who are running this. They're the ones who are telling us you're going to eat bugs. You're going to do this. You're going to do that. They're the ones who are funding the agenda at the UN and the World Economic Forum. They merged.

They had an agreement to work together. They've got the same agenda. This goes back to 2015. The UN had been talking about their UN Agenda 21. And 2015, they gave it a specific date. It was no longer some time in the 21st century. It was going to be accomplished by 2030. They're going to use smart cities and the rest of the stuff.

The World Economic Forum did their videos at that time, talking about the Great Reset, talking about how you're not going to have anything, and you'll be happier when we take everything from you. The two of them are working together. The UN creates this ground swell and brings the global politicians together to feed them the agenda in the same way that the federal government put out the Model State Health Emergency Powers Act. We've seen this type of thing done over and over again.

The Republicans, for example, have an organization called the American Legislative Exchange Council, ALEC. And what they will do is they'll have these retreats for, have an organization called the American Legislative Exchange Council, ALEC. And what they will do is they'll have these retreats for, and the Democrats do the same thing. But I'm just talking, I know about this one specifically. Because, you know, hanging around with conservatives and Republicans, I know more about this. And so they'll, they will have these retreats, like a kind of a vacation. The state legislators will go to this American Legislative Exchange Council. They will give them sample legislation.

Put the name of your state at the top, sign your name at the bottom, and turn in your homework, and we will help you with the rest of this to get this thing through. We'll help you to sell it, and all the rest. And it'll be your legislation, and not only that, but we'll further your career. These are the kind of people who put Tom Tillis on the fast track in North Carolina. That's how I found out about the American Legislative Exchange Council. I've been watching it since. And just go back and look at his history at the state level, at the federal level. But that's the way this thing is done. That's the way when they ran out this, you know, legislation, uh, to, to run the pandemic 20 years ago, the federal government with a model state health emergency powers act.

It was a model model legislation. They gave to them and said, here, pass this in your state. We're going to do something with it. You know, in a while they didn't. We're going to do something with it. You know, in a while, they didn't say we're going to do something with it. They said, you need to pass this because, you know, 9-11 and we never know what terrorists are going to do. There could be some kind of a biological attack. So you need to be prepared.

And so they sent them out this model legislation. That's what the UN does. The UN puts together this thing and kind of builds it. The World Economic Forum, that's the executive branch of this monster of hydra and and so they have the energy and they bring in since they don't have global governance yet they don't have a way to you know collect a global tax like carbon tax or something like that so they bring in the billionaires and the billionaires help them to sell the fear this This is the program. And, you know, you can become the world's richest man if you participate in that program like Elon Musk did.

So, yeah, it's all about how they can rig the public opinion. I'm about out of time. So I'm going to stop here with the environment. And I want to get into a couple of things about the pandemic. So we're going to take a quick quick break and we will be right back. Stay with us. This is The David Knight Show. I just want to say I had a long-time listener. I won't mention who it is.

I don't want to get him in trouble. He works in EMS. And he sent me some documents that he saw. He said, maybe this is nothing. I just find the timing to be interesting. He said, we were given this. And he sends me pictures of the front and back of the handout with extensive information on pediatric and neonatal resuscitation.

He said, it's basically a Cliff Notes pocket guide for EMS providers, for children and newborns, cardiac arrest, tachycardia, bradycardia, and a small paragraph including trauma. Normally this wouldn't pique my interest, but this happens to coincide with the current push to get children vaccinated. Just an interesting thing is all I'm saying. Yeah. Isn't it? Isn't it interesting that now it's become a thing and it's a normal thing. You know, we got, we've shown you commercials produced by a New York hospital saying, um, you know, we need to do EKGs for kids.. It needs to be a standard thing. We've seen this in school jurisdictions. Well, you're going to have to get an EKG

before you can participate in sports. Really? When did that become a thing after the vaccines? Judicial Watch has come out. They've done a FOIA request from HHS regarding Moderna data that was submitted to the FDA. And of course, they ignored the request. They made the request 18 months ago and in June of 2021. And they just shut them down without releasing any information. So then they sued them in September of 2021.

And so here we are now, 18 months after the asked, 15 months after the lawsuit's been fought, and they finally get some records back, and they said the FDA records show a significant number of mRNA test rats are born with skeletal deformation. Oh, wow. That's no problem, is it? The Trump shots. Oh, don't say that.

The shots are evil. Trump's not. Variations in skeletal examination included statistically significant increases in the number of rats with one or more wavy ribs and one or more rib nodules. Wavy ribs appeared in six fetuses, four litters with a fetal prevalence of 4% and a litter prevalence of 18%. Whether or not a substance-induced increase in the incidence of fetal skeletal variation should be taken into account for human risk assessment, says Judicial Watch. This is a longstanding controversial issue. It has been argued that chemical-produced increases and variations

are not to be considered for risk assessment because they're unlikely to adversely affect survival or health but there's a counter argument that not even that even not being overtly adverse and conveying no apparent selective disadvantage a treatment-induced increase in the occurrence of variations means the chemical agent has the potential to perturb skeletal development. What else is it perturbing? Well, we don't know because we didn't want to do any studies, right? And so Judicial Watch says,

just understand there were no metabolism studies done with the, I'll just call them the Trump shots. No metabolism studies were done with the Trump shots. No metabolism studies were done with the Trump shots. No excretion studies with the Trump shots. No PK, that is a pharmacokinetic studies with the Trump shots. No other PK studies with the Trump shots performed. No one could have done it faster than me. I am the father of the vaccine.

In October, you know, here's the problem for Trump moving forward, right? Success has many fathers. Failure is an orphan. In October 2020, Judicial Watch got FDA records that detailed pressure for COVID-19 vaccine booster approval and use. You notice how they avoid saying it was Trump who pressured them, who pressured Tom Fitton. He doesn't want to kill his organization by pointing the finger at Trump. Yeah, they were pressured to approve this stuff. It was Trump who threatened to fire them. We've now had a top doctor in New Zealand.

I'm sorry, not New Zealand, Australia. Uh, she was formerly president of the Australian medical association and she was injured by vaccine. And so she's speaking out about this. She said it was a devastating impact.

And she said, this is a cover-up by medical regulators. Good for her. And here's the other thing. She said that both she and her wife were seriously harmed by the vaccines. So she has LGBT credentials. She was president of the Australian Medical Association, and she has LGBT credentials. She was president of the Australian Medical Association, and she has LGBT credentials besides medical credentials. This is going to be pretty devastating for them. She further, this Dr. Karen Phelps, she further contends that the true rate of adverse events is much higher than the medical establishment is reporting.

She says, this is an issue that I have witnessed firsthand with my wife who suffered a severe neurological reaction to her first Pfizer vaccine within minutes, including burning face and gums, numb hands and feet while under observation by myself and another doctor and a registered nurse at the time of immunization. She continues to quote, observe the devastating effects a year and a half later with the addition of fatigue and additional neurological symptoms,

including nerve pains, altered sense of smell, visual disturbance, and musculoskeletal inflation. All this stuff about long COVID, you understand what it is? It's long vaccine. That's what it is.

Phelps said the diagnosis and causation has been confirmed by several specialists who have told me that they've seen a lot of patients in a similar situation. I interviewed an orthopedic surgeon who can no longer work because he can't stop his hands from shaking reactions to this vaccine. And he went from one doctor to another. And they were like, oh, I don't, no, I'm not touching this. I'm not talking about it. Finally, he found a doctor to help him.

And he said, look, I'll help you, but we're not going to talk about the vaccine. They're afraid. They're not practicing medicine anymore. This is a communist tyranny where you have to parrot whatever the authoritarian government tells you or you're kicked out on the street. It's the same thing that Solzhenitsyn confronted. He says, yes, I understand. If you confront these people, they'll take away your job, they'll kick you out on the street, but you can't believe this stuff. You can't lie to yourself. You can't do what Orwell pointed out,

you know, the double think. So she said that her wife had asked her to include her story to raise awareness for others. She said vaccine injury is a subject that few medical professionals want to talk about. A top British orthopedic surgeon has also voiced his support for the people who have come out on this. He says, history does not look kindly on those whose only defense is to say, we were just following the orders, right?

He said, the tide is turning. You better make sure you're on the right side of history. Well, that's absolutely right. All right, well, that's it for today's show. And thank you for joining us. As he pointed out, the diagnosis, the causation was confirmed by specialist colleagues. In my case, I said the injury resulted in intermittent intermittent fevers cardiovascular implications including breathlessness inappropriate

sinus tachycardia blood pressure fluctuations all the rest of this that's what the the doctor who was talking about how it was affecting her wife that's what she said she was injured from both the first and the second one.
