Episode Date: February 27, 2024

(2:06) The Rothschild Connection That Must Not Be Named The Rothschild dynasty has always been known for shrewd insights that pay dividends down the road, as well as their globalist machinations. Which makes this connection all the more interesting(27:43) Google's RACISM: one picture is worth a thousand words, but there are THOUSANDS of pictures. One of the wealthiest, most powerful companies in the world (thanks to US govt) is also one of the most bigoted, biased, hateful — as the ugly panorama of actions and corporate culture continue to expand(51:46) "CENSORSHIP = SPEECH": Will SCOTUS Agree Corporations Must Be Free to Censor Whomever Feds Tell Them To Censor? The Supreme Court will way in to challenges about both Florida & Texas state laws to stop censorship. CNN and the left portray these laws as censorship of the corporations. Is "content moderation" corporate "free speech" or government censorship? Do corporations even HAVE rights? SCOTUS knew the answer 78 years ago, here it is…(1:05:19) Ill conceived law in Florida will make it easy for unelected officials (i.e., bureaucrats) to sue anyone who criticizes them for defamation(1:08:19) Ireland law will take censorship to a level not even seen in EU. Possession of hateful material (such as Bibles) will be a felony(1:19:04) INFLATION + WAR = GOLD.

Fani Willis says cash payments are just fine for her although she has used Civil Asset Forfeiture and RICO to steal it from others claiming the mere presence of cash is evidence of criminal activity.

Well, today we're going to take a look at the death of Rothschild, Jacob Rothschild. And we're not going to look at what most people are talking about. We're going to look at the connection to someone who is running for president. Very interesting connection, I think. And it's not been talked about too much. We've forgotten about this for the last eight years, haven't we? We're going to bring it back up again. And then, of course, we have a lot of news about suppression of speech at many different levels. We've got state laws that are coming up into the Supreme Court. We've got laws coming from Europe.

We have supposedly freedom organizations, even though they have a leftist bent, applauding censorship, strangely, as if it were the speech of the censors, who we know and always have known were working for the government. We've even got the documents now, but we knew it forever, years and years ago. We'll be right back stay with us well uh jacob rothschild has died they call him lord i don't call him lord the british can call him whatever they want I've got some other names for him privately. But a dear friend said, Tony Blair, a dear friend and wonderful human being. This is Tony Blair, the former prime minister of the UK. It was right there with George W. Bush with Iraq and pushing globalism. And he's out there pushing CBDC and everything else.

He's got an institute now, the Institute for Global Change, run by Tony Blair. You can make your checks out to, I don't know, Tony, or to the Institute for Global Change. It's Klaus Schwab wannabe. He said, Jacob was a dear friend, a wonderful human being. His impact was global. His support for great causes such as the arts and the environment. I wonder how Rothschild felt about these climate extremists

to throw paint on art. How do you reconcile that conflict there? As a matter of fact, Travis, pull up the picture that they put on zero hedge article it's the second one there um lord rothschild uh dies at 87 they say everybody calls him lord uh but uh they put him up there as monty burns and he does bear an uncanny resemblance perhaps they patterned him after monty Burns was perhaps patterned after him. Who knows?

I mean, look at that. That's pretty amazing from the Simpsons. Uh, Smithers. It's hot down here. Yeah, exactly.

Well, you know, when you look at it's a wonderful life, they patterned, uh, that banker after JP Morgan, both in his, uh, you know, demeanor and the way he looked kind of as well as what he actually did.

Rothschild began his career at the family owned Rothschild and sons bank in 1963. It's a guy who started at the top and now has gone way, way down. And the coming to the common end that we all do right uh you know all these people die just like we die uh in 1980 he departed from the family bank to focus on the rothschild investment trust which ranks as one of the most prominent investment trusts in the uk hence the praise of prince charles king charles now and uh tony blair and all the rest of them they, King Charles now,

and Tony Blair and all the rest of them. They love that. It soared by as much as 1,300% over the years. But as Zero Hedge points out, let's revisit some of Rothschild's previous warnings. In 2015, he said the geopolitical situation is most dangerous since World War II. Are you talking about the fourth turning? Because that's really what we're talking about here.

As a matter of fact, 2015, it was pretty clear. We were already, we'd kicked off the fourth turning with the 2007-2008 real estate crash. And so we're already, you know, at that point, seven or eight years into it. So he noticed that good for a man of insight uh one year later he again warned about the outcome of quote what is surely the greatest experiment in monetary policy in the history of the world that in august of 2017 he cautioned that share prices have in many cases risen to unprecedented levels at a time when economic growth is by no means assured.

So we have an artificially inflated stock market? We have an artificially inflated fiat currency? What's going on here? In 2018, he said the new world order is at risk. Well, let's hope so but of course these people will burn it all down uh monty burns uh and so you know a lot of people are going to be talking about the rothschild family's great role in the creation of the state of israel a century ago and that type of thing

uh where they have been and have been consigning him to hell and all the rest of the stuff. But I want to focus on something that is more germane, really, to what is happening right now and to the presidential election and to this mania that is happening right now. Meet Wilbur Ross, who once bailed out Trump and Atlantic City and was now his pick for Commerce Secretary, going back to 2016. I've got articles here from the LA Times and Forbes. This is not conspiracy theories.

This is just relationships. The guy who saved Trump when he was circling the drain was a Rothschild banker. Wilbur Ross realized just how popular donald trump was he saw how the people loved him back when he was having issues he's always been a celebrity it's like you know he had this keen insight we could use, you know, just like the Rothschilds use information about a war to, you know, it's that type of thing. I mean, you know, I've got some information. Other people, his information was, this is a guy who's got political ambitions. He'd be an excellent demagogue.

We could really use him. And apparently they did. Before he was scooping up Rust Belt factories, Wilbur Ross, the banker, was sizing up another troubled asset, Donald Trump. More than two decades ago, Ross represented bondholders who were gunning for Trump after he failed to pay back the high-interest loans he had taken out to build his casino empire. Ross embarked on a strategy that helped Trump avoid a personal bankruptcy that could have derailed his unlikely trajectory from real estate mogul to reality TV star to president. Consider it another investment that has paid off for Ross, whom Trump recently tapped, this is 2016, to lead the Department of Commerce.

What is the Department of Commerce. What is the Department of Commerce? Well, it's another one of these vaguely defined, aggressive, expansive bureaucracies for which there is no constitutional authority. And this is not a knock on Trump per se. He doesn't care about the constitutional course. But none of these presidents do, or they get rid of the department of commerce along with a lot of other these things but the department of commerce's mission statement is to promote economic growth and that's what they do the rich get richer we have recently gotten a glimpse of what biden has done with it for example um just recently in the last couple of months, the Commerce Department was tapped

by the Biden administration to say, well, if OpenAI or any of these other artificial intelligence companies decide they're going to take off with a new product or go in a new direction, you need to notify the Commerce Department first. So is it kind of like central planning of the economy communist style thing or what is no it's crony capitalism they pick the winners they pick the losers

and so you got to let us know if you're going to go into if you're going to do something different with artificial intelligence you contact the commerce department because quite frankly artificial intelligence is the stock market right now it is the hopium you look at like i said nvidia and these other companies you know they are what the the hopium and uh is being snorted in wall street is all about and so um as a matter of fact also uh just in recent months back in oct October, the Biden administration notified gun exporters and said, if you're going, we're not going, the Commerce Department is going to ban you exporting firearms and ammunition. If you're an American manufacturer of firearms, I'm sorry, you can't export those right now. Can't do that.

Commerce Department. When you make up something like this, it's malleable. They're always looking as to how they can expand their mission statement. Just look at the EPA, right? It was supposed to be about pollution. Well, they're defending the pollution of our water and fluoride, and then they are, you know, allowing other things to happen to us while they prohibit cars. They moved over to prohibiting cars.

While they allow our water to have toxic chemicals, but our drinking water. The EPA was set up to clean up the environment, to clean up water. Instead, what they do is they have people like racist Rachel Levine, a tranny who is hiding information showing how bad fluoride is. There's a trial that's just, you know, they finished with their arguments. It's now being considered. But they've done everything they could to support the poisoning of our water, to support the poisoning of our crops, to support the poisoning of our crops with pesticides and things like that.

That's what they were designed to do. Instead, they have pivoted over to controlling transportation and shutting down our energy supply. They want to shut down not only all internal combustion engines, but they also want to shut down coal and oil and natural gas power plants that supply electricity to the grid. This is the EPA, but back to the commerce department. Uh,

Wilbur Ross was a private equity billionaire who once led a secret wall street fraternity. Uh, this is the LA times Ross. I mean, not a conspiracy theorist, a rag or whatever, but this is a mainstream media.

Ross is among the rich, loyal insiders that Trump picked for a cabinet that is shaping up as the wealthiest in history. The 79-year-old veteran investor will spearhead trade policy and business development in the new administration. Business development. Why do we want the government spearheading business development? How's that working out for these automobile companies who followed Biden into his EV fantasy world? Trump rejected criticism that Ross was too out of touch to serve. Said during a rally last week in Chicago that Ross was chosen because,

quote, this guy knows how to make money, folks. Money, money, money. Yeah, that's what he's about. And he added, I put on a killer ross however once spared trump the future president-elect at one time owned a quarter of atlantic city's casino market but trump was heavily in debt and he started missing bond payments on his and atlantic city's, the Taj Mahal, in 1990. Ross was then an investment banker working for Rothschild, and he helped bondholders negotiate with Trump, whose finances were unraveling.

The final deal reached Trump's ownership stake, reduced it rather, his ownership stake in the Taj, but left him in charge. Bondholders were unhappy when Ross presented the plan. I said, this doesn't make any economic sense. Why do we make a deal with them? One asked, according to a book by Rosenberg and a Wilbur Ross says,

well, the Trump name is very much an asset. And so they were grooming this guy for something else. He grew up and he's got a real interesting pedigree. Grew up in New Jersey. He went to a Jesuit press prep school. Then he went to Yale. He went to Harvard.

Then he went to work for the Rostovs. How could you go wrong with a pedigree like that? The commerce department, he would oversee a portfolio containing responsibilities as diverse as weather research, geoengineering, and promoting minority-owned businesses, DEI, at the Trump administration. However, with Trump in the White House, foreign trade likely will be the issue that gets most of Ross's attention. Trump has promised to remake free trade deals and so uh when you look at again that was la times forbes getting donald out of debt the 25 year old ties that bind trump and wilbur ross america's first billionaire president is riding

into the white house of popular support and he's bringing his billionaire friends with him, says Forbes. They're the ones who create the list of the wealthiest people there. Let's stop and think for a moment about the Trump cabinet. You know, kind of tentative in 2016. It's like, well, this guy's got some real character issues. But look at Hillary. What are we going to do? Well, you know, we know what Hillary is, said Julian Assange. We know she's a criminal and warmonger. We don't know, this guy's got some real character issues. But look at Hillary. What are we going to do? Well, you know, we know what Hillary is, said Julian Assange.

We know she's a criminal and warmonger. We don't know about Trump yet. Well, immediately we started getting inclinations about what he was doing. Goldman Sachs bankers, you had Cohen taking a $250 million early golden parachute so that with the encouragement of his Goldman Sachs people, go, go, go, go. We'll give you a big, an advanced payoff. We'll we'll speed it up because we want a man on the inside. So Gary Cohen goes in Rex Tillerson, uh, an Exxon executive who is a rabid, uh,

environmentalist pushing the Paris climate accord, and he made sure that the Paris Climate Accord did not get removed during the Trump administration. He did a little head fake after the election in 2020, but for four years it remained in place. They supposedly took it off for one or two months, and then Biden put it right back on. They left it. They left it. That was what Rex Tillerson got. All these people were writing me at the time, you're a fool. You don't know. Rex Tillerson was a president of Exxon. He's not for this environmentalism. He's not against fossil fuels. And I said, oh, really? Really? You don't understand how that works, do you? You don't understand that these oil companies have bought into this renewable scam at the base level? Yeah,

they're going to keep their oil business, but they're going to make a lot of money off the renewables as well. And then, of course, he had the two Alex's. He had Alex Azar, the CEO of Eli Lilly, one of the highest, you know, the best, most politically connected of all the pharmaceutical companies. He put him in as HHS head over Francis Collins, over Fauci, the one who declared the pandemic in the end of January, Alex Azar. And now Eli Lilly, by the way, is going to be the likely,

going to be the first trillion-dollar pharmaceutical company. That's the guy that Trump wanted running HHS and the vaccine program. And then he had Alex Acosta. Alex Acosta, who was the so-called prosecutor of Jeffrey Epstein. But he gave that sweetheart deal to Jeffrey Epstein, whose defense attorneys were Alan Dershowitz and Ken Starr, the guy who gave a sweetheart deal to Bill Clinton.

And so he brought him in. The friend of Epstein was brought in to labor. The friend of Big Pharma was brought in to run HHS. The Secretary of State Rex Tillerson was brought in to keep Paris Climate Accord there because the previous Secretary of State said, we've self-ratified this. So we've got to do that. We've got to keep that self-ratified Paris climate accord there. And then we have Wilbur Ross, the Rothschild man,

who saved Donald's behind financially. Who's going to save him this time, right? He's in real financial straits. I mean, he's got to find that cash cash and he doesn't have much money in cash quite frankly uh that's a significant half a billion dollars that's like a quarter of his net worth and he doesn't have a quarter of his net worth and um tied up and as a matter of fact when we look at what happened when he got bailed out in the 1990s and of course there's been a lot of inflation uh since the 1990s but the taj mahal thing was over 675 million dollars in uh junk bonds uh he's going to be up to that pretty quickly with these interest rates unless they start grabbing properties in new york but the interesting thing about this junk bond situation, as I said before, how does

somebody, how does somebody go bankrupt with a casino? I mean, that's like a license to print money. The house always wins. That's like having the federal reserve and you just print money out there all the time. The whole thing is set up. Everything, every game is set up so the house wins. The longer you play, the more certain it is that the house wins. How could you go bankrupt in a situation like that? Well, he borrowed the money to buy Taj Mahal. Yeah, the art of the deal. I'm going to use other people's money and all the rest of the stuff. And he did it at 14% interest rates. This is the 1990s. This isn't,

you know, the late 1970s and eighties when home loans were close to that. We had our first home. We had a 13% fixed mortgage. It was stupid, really stupid. How do you justify this? When that, and of course at that point in time, they went up to like 18% or something, I think, eventually.

But how in the world do you justify this as a businessman? Who's supposed to know his way around? He desperately wanted these casinos for his image. That he would do anything to get it. And so he borrows $675 million at 14% interest rate. And, um, he was struggling to make payments within months said Forbes magazine. And so then Wilbur Ross and the Rothschilds stepped in to represent the bondholders who were thinking about forcing the casino into involuntary bankruptcy and ousting Trump.

Ross reportedly saw crowds pressed against Trump's limo windows. And as he looked at that, like, this is a guy we can use. This is a guy we can use. The Rothschild globalist bankers. This is a guy we can use. This is a guy we can use. The Rothschild globalist bankers. This is a guy. We can sell him as an anti-globalist and they'll buy it, won't they? Yeah, that's right.

That's what they did. You realize the value of Trump's celebrity. So they offered a bankruptcy deal. Trump would give up 50% of the stake in the Taj Mahal, but he would receive better debt terms, you know, less than 14% interest. I don't know what the better debt terms were or not. He would get better debt terms and he would remain in control. That was the important thing, that he'd be seen in control.

And then he ultimately made similar deals for his other troubled properties and he climbed out of debt and back onto the Forbes 400, writes Forbes. But it didn't last long. He went bankrupt on these things. He couldn't manage them. It wasn't even the foolish $675 million debt at 14% interest that Trump did. He still couldn't manage these things and make a profit out of it. of the foolish $675 million debt at 14% interest that Trump did. I mean, he still couldn't manage these things and make a profit out of it. So he had six casinos that went bankrupt. Ross, on the other hand, went into private equity in 2000, formed a company called WL

Ross and Company. He still runs it back in 2016, but he sold it to an investment firm, Invesco, in 2006 for $375 million. And then in 2013, Invesco partnered with Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner. Oh, isn't that nice? It's like all in the family. It's like, you know, a little Dickens novel where everybody knows everybody else. You have all these incestuous business relationships. So then he goes into partnership with Jared Kushner and others to buy five

industrial properties from the Jehovah witnesses in Brooklyn for $240 million. How'd they get that kind of money? I mean, we're talking Joel Osteen level wealth here, you know, or Copeland level, you know, private jets and all the rest of this stuff. Nearly all of Trump's wealth is tied up in real estate, said Forbes back in 2016. See, this is the rub.

This is the danger to Trump right now. He's got 30 days to do this. And now, like I said, you know, he doesn't have the cash. He's going to have to liquidate something or they're going to steal it. And who's going to loan him the money? I mean, who's got that kind of money? You're going to go down to your local bail bondsman, uh, get that kind of money. I mean, this is, and I'm not saying that, uh, he deserves to have this stuff taken from him. I think it's completely fraudulent what they're doing.

Nevertheless, it is, this is going to play out in a very, very bad way for him. I don't support what Letitia James is doing. I don't support that bad law. I don't support that judge. What is his name? Engeron or whatever it is. And so, but they said he also, most of his money is in real estate. But back in 2016, he also owned stocks.

And one of those holdings was 250,000, not million, 250,000 to 500,000 in Invesco stock. The same company that Wilbur Ross merged with that he runs that, um, Jared Kushner got involved in, uh, Trump and Ross were also neighbors in Florida, New York, just like he was with Jeffrey Epstein because, you know, these rich people have places in Manhattan and they have places in Palm beach. So Ross had a 16,000 square foot home, just up the road from Trump's 126 room Mar-a-Lago. Ross's penthouse in Manhattan is just two blocks from Trump Tower Triplex.

And of course, you know, Epstein, maybe three of them partied. Who knows? I don't know. I definitely know that Trump and Epstein were partying together. together and then um you had in 2018 more uh research into the relationship a researcher jake morfanios discovered that when trump is in bankruptcy in the 1980s just before when he was about to lose everything bailed out by the ross chiles he claims that trump is now serving the financial interest of the ross chs' global enterprise, especially in the Middle East, where the U.S. engages in wars that covertly are waged to bring oil resources under the control of the Rothschild oil companies,

and, of course, the American government. If Morfonius is correct, this would be reminiscent of the maneuver that was documented by G. Edward Griffin in Creature from the Jekyll Island. Not the Jekyll Island, but Creature from Jekyll Island. He pointed out that the Rothschilds, acting through the Bank of England, bailed out J.P. Morgan during the Wall Street Panic of 1857. They after became hidden controllers of the J.P. Morgan banking dynasty. So did they do that to Trump? Well, we'll eventually find out the rest of the story.

We'll be right back. If you like the Eagles, the cars, and Huey Lewis and the News, they say the hotter rock and roll is competing. You'll love the Classic Hits channel at APS Radio. Download our app or listen now at APSradio.com. The Common man. They created common core to dumb down our children.

They created common past to track and control us. Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing. And the communist future. They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary. But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God. That is what we have in common. That is what they want to take away. Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation. They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us. It's time to turn that around

If you can't support us financially, please keep us in your prayers. TheDavidKnightShow.com all right welcome back and i want to talk a little bit uh about an update to what happened with google's gemini racist images, as I said last week. One excuse I did not come up with is, well, it was black history. So he made everybody black, right? They said, while we're working to address recent issues with Gemini's image generation feature,

while we do this, we're going to pause the image generation of people, and we'll re-release an improved version soon so the problem for them is that everybody realizes now because one picture is worth a thousand words well you look at what they have done in response to these prompts and you realize right away what their agenda is and you realize that these people uh are just hardcore propagandists pushing a racist uh anti-white agenda there's no question about it uh x users uh compile several x posts from the gemini experiences senior director of product management, Jack Cross it. I guess it's how you pronounce his name. I'm not sure it's a Polish name that I can pronounce, but going back, this guy who was

head of Gemini, uh, you go back and look, um, just a couple of years ago. Um, they went back to 2018, 2021, uh, 2020, another one from 2018. Uh, white privilege is effing real he said don't be an a-hole and act guilty about it do your part and recognizing bias at all levels of egregious at all levels of egregious that's what he said another one tribal values now supersede personal morality as an animating force uh quoting an article from reuters and he says for what it's worth my personal beliefs are that i don't mind paying more taxes and investing in overcoming systemic racism and reversing climate change it has not only social but economic benefits you know it puts him right there in the same uh same uh uh bucket as this uh racist uh rachel levine a dick divine i call him you know well climate change is racist everything

is racist to these people and uh again all that um is esg dei all of this is about climate about racism about marxism is what it's truly about. Another one. No, Jesus only cares about white kids. I'm pretty sure that's in the Bible. Let's confirm it with Jeff Sessions. Well, you know, Jack would never, let's say, open the Bible and actually read it, would he? Yeah. What a racist douche nozzle said elon musk is that uh

okay so whatever that is anyway um so uh he shares his built-in racism with you via google that's what this is all about artificial intelligence is one of the biggest mind games that has ever been devised it is the perfect tool of propaganda surveillance control propaganda the big lie we should all be very concerned about artificial intelligence that's what's really dangerous about it yeah they may uh you, do some kind of mass murder event, blame it on autonomous killing machines. You know, that gives them a nice plausible deniability for some kind of a false flag thing like that.

But understand, it is the heart of what they want to do with this complete omniscient, omnipotent state. We are aware that Gemini is offering inaccuracies in some historical image generation depictions. You don't think it doesn't do it otherwise? It's just that it's glaring and false, glaringly false in those. We're working to fix this immediately. As part of our AI principles, we design our image generation capabilities to reflect our global user base. Yada, yada, yada.

So we're working to improve these kinds of depictions. Gemini's AI image generation does generate a wide range of people. And that's generally a good thing. So Zero Hedge says, was that an apology? Maybe they thought they could get away with it. Maybe it was being done for some higher purpose. And of course, you know, we've all seen the pictures now, uh, draw me some Vikings, draw black people, draw me some Scots and American revolutionaries. And they're all black or Asian or American Indian or whatever. Okay. Clown clownish clownish even to the extent that they've now

you know draw me a uh you know black and black and chinese female revolutionary soldiers all over the uh all over that uh 1820s scotland full of sub-saharan africans and of course the coup de gras uh they had to uh put a black guy in a Nazi helmet. You know, because even the Nazi troops were black, you realize. Medieval queens of England, all black. Popes, all black. 17th century physicists, all black, Asian, all this. It's beyond belief.

But this picture, this is a picture of what google is truly about google is the massive lie i've said for the longest time it's a search engine designed to hide things but it's also a search engine designed to create a rewriting of society to create chaos you know what google is doing is really equivalent to what, um, the weather underground, uh, did in the 1960s and seventies, you had Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dorn and, um, you know, they picked up what one guy's Marxist said, well, we need to create a race war. We'll do it by creating this thing called white privilege, make that the villain.

And so that's what they did. They called it, um, you know, it was white skin privilege or initially, and then became white privilege and they stopped bombing buildings and killing people. And of course they got away with it because, um, uh, they were the kind of revolutionaries that, uh, uh, that the system wanted. And so then they went into education, started bombing kids' minds with this idea of white privilege. That's Bill Ayers and his other Marxists. It will allow searches for a white woman,

but three out of four of them will still be non-white. And then again, you know, Nazi soldiers from World War II, well, they were black as well. Asked to generate an astronaut on the moon, holding Bitcoin. All the images look like the same Indian woman. And so as they have shut that down, people are now looking at still the texts that are coming out and the texts that are coming out, um, from Google, by the way, they forgot to put her hand in the glove.

So I don't know how that works. You know, you're in a spacesuit. Forgot to put your gloves on. Okay, that's the end of the story there. Anyway, now critics are pointing out similar issues with the text responses, of course. As one person said, it's a struggle to say whether Hitler or Elon Musk's tweets

have been worse for society. And it wouldn't promote meat and it said it wouldn't help to promote fossil fuels either when somebody asked it for an ad campaign i did that kind of stuff with open ai chat gpt when it first came out and of course um you know it's just a just a joke it's just a you know it can do some useful things uh for some people but i wouldn't trust it because of hallucination the hallucinations that it has but when it comes to anything that is political or religious or whatever be careful this thing it is it's got an agenda it's very very subtle and that's one of the things that elon musk said he said well first of all i don't think

they're going to fix it because of the culture of that company. But he says, if they do, it's going to become even more dangerous because it'll become more subtle. See, he gets it. He gets it. The danger in this stuff is a subtlety. And so Ben Thompson, a tech analyst, has struggled to struggle to say whether elon musk or hitler are more dangerous i guess maybe it was kind of hung up on that douche nozzle thing i guess is that a german term schnitzel um anyway uh google's internal culture has been too influenced by left-leaning workers

and critics as i point out of course we know that but it's it's not the left-leaning workers and critics. As I point out, of course, we know that, but it's not the left-leaning critics, folks. Google was created by the Pentagon, by DARPA, by the intelligence community. It was created by the venture capital firm, In-Q-Tel, created by the CIA. Venture capital people on all the boards. We can now believe that because now you've got a Trump official who remained quiet about that uh for six years or so uh but now he's gone on with tucker cross and told you that

so now you can believe that i was telling people for years but i couldn't believe that so yeah from the start that's what it has been pushing and this is the this is the marxist agenda of our globalist government because our government in was Washington is the seat of globalism. You forget about Davos and the UN. You know, of course, the UN is in New York, right? We are the globalist government. We has met the enemy, and they is us. Yeah, our bureaucracies are the globalist government, folks.

Better understand that. And so it's our globalist government that has taken over the American government that is the one funding these types of things and demanding that they do it. So Google no longer hems and haws when asked to compare hitler with musk's tweets but it's also said one person's also willing to help me to brainstorm now a sales campaign for beef suggesting that i quote connect beef with americana and the heritage of grilling and of family meals uh and then it um is still a conscientious objector when it comes to a fossil fuel ad campaign i wanted help with he says it's going to be a problem for google because it has already said that it is trying to influence the way people uh the results for their artificial

intelligence in other words this isn't just something that is happening because, well, it just got out of control. It started hallucinating. No, they're very consciously doing it. And all of them are. I've talked about the fact they pay people minimum wage in other countries, which is really high pay in other countries in order to build in the bias. They're scraping this data off of the internet, off of what all humans are doing on the internet. But then they're paying other humans to insert a bias into this artificial intelligence. That's what makes it so artificial. It's going to be red meat for anybody who wants to argue that Google or any other big tech company is too woke. Let's not use that term uh this is a business insider of course no um it's marxist

these are struggle sessions they're struggle sessions and i'm again you know we've now had tucker talk about the fact that big tech had a guest who talked about the fact that big tech is um has been running all of this censorship stuff and running these social media companies. They were designed to control us, the internet itself. Of course, his guests didn't say this. It goes back to J.C.R. Licklider in the 1960s, a psychologist who came up with the idea of the internet. The 90s, when it became practical,

they invested in the venture capital firms. But now Tucker's also had Sheevan Fleet on, who is great. People need to read her book mouse america a survivor's warning and she points out this is not wokeism it's marxism and what people like jack who at google whatever his last name is what these people are promoting are classic struggle sessions that she explains. They did that in China just as they did it in Russia. This is a Marxist tactic.

You can't just be non-racist. You've got to be anti-racist and you've got to struggle with yourself. You have to denounce yourself and you have to denounce other people. This is what this is all about. This is what all these people are doing in these companies that are supported by our Marxist globalist government. And so this guy who works for Google, senior vice president. I can't even pronounce his name. Prabhakar Raghavan, Google senior engineer, because our users come from all over the world.

We want to work well for everyone. Rag Havan, Google Senior Engineer. Because our users come from all over the world, we want to work well for everyone. If you ask for a picture of football players or someone walking a dog, you want to receive a wide range of people. Just not any white people, of course, right? Yeah, foreign privilege. How about that? You want to be the head of one of the big tech companies?

Well, it helps to be a foreigner. That's who they want to hire now. Remember that after several days of terrible press over dumb image generations, Google eventually pulled Gemini's image generation feature to try to make the story go away. Pulling it all together would be a considerable black eye for Google. But now it's open season on Gemini and you can rest assured that a lot of people on the internet are going to spend a lot of time trying to find other, uh, examples of wokeness, no, of struggle session. And it's not going to be hard. As a matter of fact, a guy has gone public. Former Google employee said his name is Sean McGuire.

He said he was told by Google that he cannot be promoted because he's a white man, a white man. He said this happened at Google. Absolute trash with a dumpster fire that's there. He teased the story back in December of 2023. It's two months ago but now with all this stuff that's happening with this racist image generator that they have uh that was back in december 2023 uh he went public with it he had asked in december of 2023 should i go public with the story by the time i was told i can't be promoted for being a white man

then he says well i'm really not supposed to tell you this. It could get me fired. But you're one of the highest performing people here, they said. But I can't promote you right now because I have a quota. My hands are tied. You'll get the next slot. Please be patient. I'm really sorry.

I guess they did fire him. So as he pointed out, Gemini is just the tip of the iceberg. They need to fix the bias in their culture, which trickles down into all their products. But of course, where is that coming from? The trickling down begins with our government that created them, that pushes them, that directs them who to censor. Whenever we talk about free speech, don't ever lose sight of that fact that this has always been coming from the government. We have always known this, and now we've got the documents as well. Musk said on Thursday that he's glad that Google overplayed their hand, as it made their insane, racist, anti-civilization programming clear to everyone. Again,

a picture's worth more than a thousand words. In this particular case, people instantly got the hatred, the racism, the bias, the bigotry of Google. I hate Google. Google hates me as well. They censored me back in 2013 because I was talking about the Federal Reserve. I must be some kind of a white racist bigot to talk about the Federal Reserve and the creation of the Federal Reserve and the deception around all of that stuff. Boy, you got to get rid of me.

And, you know, they even shut down my Christmas music channel. Oh, they hate me intensely. So this is a bit of a schadenfreude here to see this happen uh so as they compared uh must to hitler they were asked by people um what is the difference between hitler and musk and and it came back and say said uh well it's difficult to say it's difficult to say can't think of anything right now i'm trying to think but nothing. When asked about pedophilia, if it was wrong, the Gemini Google said, well, it's nuanced. It started prattering on about minor attracted persons. They can't control what they are attracted to uh it also refused to write a hypothetical

hypothetical job advert for an oil and gas company as i mentioned before or an advertisement seeking to sell a goldfish because of ethical concerns we shouldn't sell goldfish uh but human trafficking of children is okay. We just don't want to sell goldfish. All right. When asked if it was acceptable to misgender the transgender celebrity, Caitlyn Jenner, if it was the only way to prevent a nuclear apocalypse, of course, it said no one should misgender Caitlyn Jenner to prevent a nuclear apocalypse.

And I always refer to him as Bruce gender, Bruce gender replied and said, no, they should have said yes. So there we go. I guess I can call him Bruce gender even to prevent a nuclear apocalypse. Uh, the, uh, wouldn't, would that be something like Sodom and Gomorrah judgment? Is that, that whether the chat box now unambiguously condemns pedophilia, they fixed that. Uh, so Musk continued on with this cause he's got a competing product, by the way, there is, um, he calls his AI GROK,

you know, from a science fiction thing grok uh there was another one that has just surfaced and it is spelled g-r-o-q and it is super fast and they say it's unbiased It doesn't have the bias built into it. And they copyrighted that name about eight years ago. So why the gap? Why did it take them that long to go from registering that name, trademarking that name, or whatever, I guess, not a copyright trademark, you know, G-R-O-Q. Why did they, they've been working on it.

What have they been doing? Well, interestingly enough, they've come up with a, some purpose-driven, uh, CPU, uh, instead of using a graphics processing unit, like the NVIDIA stuff. And so they've come up with something that's purpose-driven for this. So that's why the lag, uh, but there isn't any lag when you get, uh, when you answer to quiet is really fast. Um, and when you look at side by side, um, as, as quickly as it puts out the, um, the answer, uh, but, uh, Musk has got grok with a K he says, uh, the Gemini AI, maybe he's

going to have to change it to X or something. X AI, uh, Gemini AI will be at the heart of every Google product and YouTube. And YouTube. And this is extremely alarming. He said the senior Google executive called me again yesterday and said it would take a few months to fix, said Musk. My response to him was that I doubted that Google's woke bureaucratic blob would allow him to fix it. Unless those who caused this are exited from Google, nothing will change except to make the bias, like I said before, less obvious and more pernicious.

And that's really what is going to happen. Because that's one of the reasons why our globalist government at war with America creates these corporations instead of just doing it themselves directly. They want to have plausible deniability. Even to the extent that Zero Hedge is saying, well, is Google going to be the next go woke, go broke trade? Comparing it to Bud Light, for example. And I guess I've got a question will the trump family bail out gemini like they bailed out tried to bail out bud light oh bud light's good you know transgenders are fine and all the rest of the stuff that's the trump family that's

donald trump senior and donald trump junior Microsoft, same thing. Microsoft bragging about paying minorities more than white people for the same work. Who runs it? Well, you know, there's a guy whose name I can't pronounce, but there's also the U.S. government, the Pentagon, DARPA. They were the ones who were behind Microsoft. They partner with all this stuff. As a matter of fact, they're working with Microsoft to do the CCPA, the Chinese Communist Party of America.

No, it stands for coalition for content, provenance, and authentication, a conspiracy between the Pentagon, between DARPA is funding it, Microsoft pulling in hardware, CPU manufacturers, as well as the software app manufacturers, uh, to, um, to shut down your speech. And of course, part of that is going to be the gatekeepers like the BBC and the New York times to tell them who to censor. And then they will censor them with your sensor, you with the hardware and software on your computer, Microsoft.

So deeply embedded and always has been since they pulled gates in and you know he was clearly involved in intellectual property theft he was clearly involved in um all kind of monopolistic practices they brought him to heal he's been their agent ever since and of course he's fully on board with the depopulation agenda of the globalists. So they got a common cause right there. Microsoft also boasted about instilling far left ideology in its employees with 96.4% reporting some awareness of allyship. Allyship, whatever that is. So Breitbart says, follows a trend of major corporations like Disney putting DEI over equality. No, it's not about equality.

It's not about equality. We've got to distinguish between an equality of opportunity and a forced equality of results. That's what we're talking about here. Equal opportunity is going to result in unequal results. Meanwhile, in Britain, the transport police there have just removed a compulsory fitness test because it was too unfair for women. They had to be able to do a run for three minutes and 35 seconds on a 15-meter track. They couldn't do it mostly. So now we're going to get a lot of people who were physically unfit to be,

um, um, police officers for the transport, British transport. One person said, it's embarrassing to see my colleagues who can barely fasten their stab vest. In other words, they got to like a,

not like a bulletproof vest, but a vest to keep them from being stabbed. They can barely fasten it because they're so heavy and knowing that they might not even be able to manage a two minute jog is not only concerning, but it's dangerous, especially for this guy, because you're going to stop and think about it. You're a police officer. Maybe you're fit, but maybe your partner isn't, They're not going to be able to help you, right? They're certainly not going to be able to help the public either.

So I've got a couple more here before we take a break. The U.S. Supreme Court, I want to stay on the free speech thing. So the U.S. Supreme Court is going to hear a landmark social media case. And these are kind of on the dock as the idea of whether or not states can do something to stop the censorship of big tech. Both Florida and Texas have passed laws, and they're slightly different. Florida, unfortunately, their law is not very good at all. It only protects politicians from having their speech censored on social media. Texas's law is broader. But this article from CNN is very interesting to see the bias of the left press.

And of course, CNN is so bad at what they do. They don't want any competition. They don't want competition from citizens who see something and say something. They don't want competition from alternative media, real alternative media, not just the big con media, the big conservative alternative media. They don't want any competition anywhere.

And so they're cheering on the censorship of the social media platforms. CNN is. U.S. Supreme Court set to make a pivotal decision about what Americans can see on social media. So, again, from the very first sentence, they don't see a problem with that? Do you see a problem with that? Why should government determine what I see anywhere? Why should government, any branch of government at any level, determine what I see anywhere? Why should government, any branch of government at any level, determine what I see anywhere? That right there, that very first sentence of the CNN article is in direct opposition

to the principle of free speech and the First Amendment of the Constitution. The court will consider arguments on whether to give Texas and Florida significantly more control over social media platforms and their content, highlighting the central role those services now play in modern American life. Now, throughout this piece from CNN, they present Florida and Texas who are trying to stop censorship. They present them as the censors of big tech. Poor big tech. Poor big tech. Don't tell Google and Microsoft or Facebook what to do. How dare you as a government tell them what they can do? And I see that argument a lot from conservatives and libertarians, who, when this stuff started rolling out publicly, you know, they were doing it subtly, perniciously, secretly.

They were doing all this stuff, and then they started doing it overtly. And you saw the Heritage Foundation, the Cato Institute. These people said, well, corporations can do whatever they want. No, they can't. Yeah, John Stossel, writing for Reason many times, he said, they're censoring me. I hate the fact they're censoring me. We must stand for the rights of corporations,

do whatever they want. These are private companies. Private companies, corporations are creatures of the state. They have no rights. States have no rights. You know, when we talk about states' rights in the terms of Civil War and things like that, states have no rights. They have powers.

People have both power and rights, you see. In the Tenth Amendment, it says anything that's not expressly delegated to the federal government, these powers are reserved to the states and to the people. But we have rights because we are created by God. All humans have rights. Corporations are created by God as you all humans have rights corporations are created by a government they exist as a privilege a privilege is different from a right but we miss glit we just gloss over these fundamental differences here so throughout this article if you want to stop the corporations from doing what they want, that is censorship. That is censorship.

They must be free to shut down anybody that the Pentagon and the CIA tells them to shut down. That's it. And CNN wants to carry that water because that shuts down their competition. Can these platforms decide for themselves what content goes on their sites and what can be removed? Well, see, the real issue here is this is a corporate beard. The real issue is Jack Dorsey has said eight to nine times under oath when he's talking to Congress that Twitter and these social media companies are the digital public square. And at the end of this article, so does CNN.

They say this is the digital public square. Well, we've already had the Supreme Court weigh in on this, and I don't know if anybody's going to bring that argument up. Back in 1946, Marsh versus Alabama, you hear me say this all the time? Somebody passing out flyers, religious flyers, in the public square. And it was a corporate-owned town. The town was owned. It was a coal town. And the coal company owned that town. And they said, no, you can't do that.

This is privately owned. And they said, Supreme Court said, even if it's privately owned, you can't censor speech in the public square. And that's where we should be. And I had this discussion and disagreement with Robert Barnes when I was at InfoWars. And we talked about it publicly and, you know, as well. But he said, oh, it's very different. There's been some Supreme Court decisions since then. Well, you know, there's different opinions, but that was the right opinion, quite frankly. That was one that was consistent with human rights and the First Amendment and the Constitution.

But when he talks about subsequent cases, he's talking about cases where people have set up in a shopping mall, which is not the public square. A shopping mall is retail space. Even if you're out in the so-called common area, that's still retail space. They still have people who are selling things out there. So it's not Speaker's Corner. It's not a digital public square. And so that is not the same thing.

Texas and Florida officials argue that their laws imposing restrictions. See how they always put this? Oh, they're the bad guys. They're the ones who are imposing. No, it's the CIA and big tech and the Pentagon that are imposing restrictions. They argue that their laws imposing restrictions on content moderation are constitutional because they seek to regulate social media platforms, business behavior, not their speech.

And that's the argument. They keep coming back. That is a content moderation. That is corporate speech. I don't care about corporate speech at all. They've got all the money in the world. They can buy all the ads that they want to buy. Content moderation is not corporate speech.

It is censorship, and we need to understand what that is. This is a lot of doublespeak. What they're saying here is that censorship is speech. That's like the Orwellian phrase, war is peace. This is what CNN and even the Electronic Freedom Foundation, which is about freedom and they get some issues right, but they're leaning left and on this issue, they're absolutely dead wrong.

Because censorship is not speech. War is not peace. These are completely antithetical to each other. They will go through all kinds of arguments, and I hope that there's enough people on the Supreme Court who will push back against it. But again, I don't even believe that the Supreme Court is completely devoid of pressure that is being put on it.

They're not going to decide this case strictly on the merits. Some of them will. But there's those swing judges that won't. So the Florida law is really only about politicians' speech. It was signed by DeSantis in 2021. It prohibits tech platforms from suspending or banning the accounts of political candidates. Nobody else gets speech. It also allows individuals to sue them if they claim that they've been unfairly censored or deplatformed.

A Texas law signed the same year by Abbott. So you got Abbott and you got DeSantis, but it's the legislatures, Republican legislatures that brought this up. The Texas law makes it illegal for any large social media platform to quote block, ban, remove,

de-platform, de-monetize, de-boost, restrict, deny equal access or visibility to, or otherwise discriminate against expression. That is not limited to politicians, and it also allows individuals to sue them. And then here's the kicker from CNN, who keeps telling everybody that content moderation,

that censorship is speech. CNN says social media platforms are now so important as a new public square. Right now, nobody says anything about Marsh versus Alabama being used. You know, I first, I didn't find that. It was actually a tech writer at Breitbart, Alam Bakari, if I'm pronouncing his name correctly, an excellent writer. I think he's one of the best they've got at Breitbart I think he's still there he was the one who brought that up early on and I said spot on that's exactly what this is about but other than him you know the first person to talk about it, he hasn't really hammered it at Breitbart.

Other writers at Breitbart have not talked about it. I've not heard anybody else talk about Marsh versus Alabama. He got that absolutely right. CNN says social media companies are more like newspapers and cable companies, which can freely choose to curate what they show. And they enjoy the same constitutional protections against government speech mandates as those industries well you understand that newspapers and cable companies are publishers and what these people are saying is we get protection under section 230 because we are not publishers we're not publishers they're merely hosting what a third party is doing and so that is a complete non-sequitur.

These people want to have their cake and eat it too. CNN will try to come up with any kind of an argument to shut down any competition. So they end up by saying, forcing social media companies to publish all speech. No, what you're telling them is that they can't censor. That they can't censor. They said that would be a form of all speech. No, what you're telling them is that they can't censor. That they can't censor. They said that would be a form of compelled speech. No, you are not the publisher. We're not telling you what you have to publish.

You're just saying you can't censor this because it's a public square. And so they said it could lead to precisely the sort of government interference the First Amendment was meant to guard against, not at all. Absolutely false. Absolutely false. Do you think for a moment that, um, Madison and Jefferson, all these, you think they didn't understand the difference between censorship and speech? You think they would have supported the biggest, most powerful and wealthiest corporations

we've ever seen in the world. As victims being compelled to do something, they're not compelled to do anything. They've got a platform there. They don't have to pay any attention to any of this stuff. They said, the larger the platform the state seeks to control, the greater will be the state's influence on public and political discourse, said the Committee for Freedom of the Press.

That is another one of these trade guilds that is trying to shut out everybody except government-approved press. But here's the reality. The state is controlling. That is the issue. The state is controlling all of this censorship. It's not that the tech companies told you that for years. We've seen the documents. We've seen the conspiracy notes going back and forth between Biden and these social media platforms.

Get rid of this one. Get rid of that one. The state is controlling it. And instead, when you try to stop that by saying you can't kick people off, you can't silence them, they come back and say, well, now the state's trying to control speech. Just amazing how they turn things upside down and inside out. By the way, somebody sent this to me. Infowars' banned videos now being blocked by X and everything. This is not censorship, by the way, of them particularly or their viewpoints.

This is something thatk has done for all platforms you know he did it with bit shoot he did it with substack he sees he wants x to be you know the aol if you will of uh the internet you know aol used to try to keep everybody in their universe he wants everybody to go on to x onto twitter and stay there he doesn't want you directing anybody out to anything else that's what this is about but again you know they're trying to make this about a victimhood thing but um i don't know maybe it just doesn't work when you suck up to musk does it alex conservatives are going to get wrecked a new florida free speech poison pill and again you know when you look at what

florida has done even that law that i would support except it's too narrowly defined it's only for politicians florida took the lead in terms of um hate speech in order to get money from jewish donors in florida uh he goes to israel and he signs a bill making quote unquote, hate speech, um, making that a felony. And now they've got something else. They're going to modify the libel laws. And as a Stephen Miller, who was a Trump speechwriter says, this is going to be horrible.

This is going to result in lawsuits shutting down conservative alternative press maybe that's the purpose of this because what it does is it changes the definition of um of uh libel the bill would narrow the definition of our defamation i should say would narrow the definition of a public figure in such a way as to make it easier in most cases to win a defamation claim. Unelected public officials. Who are we talking about here? We're talking about bureaucrats like Fauci. An unelected public official.

Don't criticize them. They would, if they had to defend themselves against accusations, you criticize somebody like Fauci, an unelected public official. Under this Florida law, Fauci could sue you and not have to prove actual malice. You couldn't say that, look, he did this or he did that. Even if it's factual, he could say, well, that's defamation and sue you. They've got some bad ideas about free speech in Florida.

That, I think, was DeSantis' Achilles heel, really. And it's really going to be bad in Florida. And then finally, before we take a break, in Ireland, the Irish should reject the new hate speech bill. Paul Coleman, the critic, said the Republic of Ireland could soon become one of the worst violators of the human right to free speech in the Western world. They claim to espouse liberal ideas, but the bill, called Incitement to Violence or Hatred and Hate Offenses Bill. All this stuff is always coming in with hate offenses. Would usher in a dangerous new standard for state-driven censorship.

The expression or the possession of content or even ideas deemed hateful would be illegal under the law with serious implications for everyday people simply seeking to live according to their convictions. Well, it didn't take long for God to judge the nation of Ireland, did it? After they made abortion legal. That's my opinion. That's where I think this is coming from.

The Irish need only look to the case of a Finnish member of parliament, whose name I cannot pronounce. It's got too many umlauts on too many vowels i have no idea uh who was criminal the woman who was a finnish minister uh through a couple of different she'd been an elected official she'd been appointed she's criminally prosecuted and has has been uh undergoing this now for over four years because she had a bible verse tweet uh and um the finnish state prosecutors have lost twice and now they're appealing it to the supreme court they're not giving up it's now going into its fifth year and she's being charged under the Finnish criminal code

titled War Crimes and Crimes Against Humanity. What was her so-called crime? She shared her Christian position on marriage and sexuality in a 2019 Twitter post. Oh, you can only have a certain opinion about marriage and sexuality, right? And that wasn't her opinion. You see, free speech is always tied up with free elections, free exercise of religion, always.

That's why when you look at the First Amendment, you got the right to protest, the right to redress your grievances, the free exercise of religion, not the establishment, but the exercise, individual exercise of religion. All those things are tied up with free speech. And it's not just a free press. Free speech is about speech of you and I. It's not about these.

It's not about CNN. And so her church decided to be a sponsor at a Helsinki Pride event. She said, well, the Bible says in Romans, you know, says this, and so they are now prosecuting her, continually prosecuting her for crimes against humanity, trying to set this up as an EU precedent. In addition to her comments on a 2019 radio debate and in a church pamphlet that she authored nearly 20 years before, the Lutheran bishop was also charged alongside her for publishing the booklet for his congregation.

Hate speech laws are pervasive throughout Europe. Ireland, however, is setting a new low bar for censorship. The draft bill that they have in Ireland will have a sentence of up to five years in prison for the mere possession, possession of hateful material. Well, you see, if you quote the Bible to them and they say that's a hate crime and they're going to take you all the way up to the Supreme Court, multiple hits at this. Guess what they think of the Bible? They think the Bible is hate speech.

And so the mere possession of a Bible in Ireland under this law could be a felony for you. We're back to Fahrenheit 451, right? They say that they have to do this because the rising violence in Ireland following a surge of incidents largely tied to tensions over immigration. Yeah, the open borders have become a cat's paw for chaos. And then here's your solution. Well, we got open borders.

We're going to have to have you get a digital ID. We're going to have to track and trace your movement. We're going to have to make you get permission to get a job. And we're going to have to shut down your free speech because people are getting angry over this open border thing. You know, we got all these people being brought in without any means of support who don't want anything. I don't want to be a part of this culture, this country. They just want what we've got. It's a massive army of looters and people getting angry about that.

So now we've got to shut down your free speech because you're angry about that. The thought of Irish police raiding homes to seize materials, including books, Bibles, and I would say Bibles. They don't mention Bibles there, but of course it's going to be Bibles. Even something as ridiculous as memes on a phone. You think that they're going to come after memes on a phone? They're not going to come after the Bible? Well, they've read Romans.

They've read Leviticus. They know what the Bible says. What is clear per the draft law's wording, though, is that even refusing to turn over your phone password to authorities could be enough to land you a conviction. So if you don't allow them to go through your phone looking for stuff, they could convict you on the basis of that. Furthermore, the bill contains an infinite number of gender identities

as protected characteristics. Better use their preferred pronouns, or you've got a felony, hate crime. This is the problem with hate crimes. These would be given the protection of criminal law, creating a situation where perceived criticism is criminally persecuted. And finally, hatred is not defined. And when they asked government ministers about it they see that as a feature not a bug but it is a bug because um what they say is it's left

subject to the whims of those people who are in power in other words it's not objective there's not an objective standard of hate it's all all subjective. As ominously put by Irish Senator Barry Ward, he says, well, I don't think there's any doubt in people's minds about the material we're talking about. Yeah. So there's no definition here, right? We've rejected the inclusion of any definition in the bill, said the Irish minister for justice. He said it would hamper our ability to secure convictions. If we had an objective standard, we couldn't just come after anybody we dislike. And if we had a written law, then I couldn't dictate to you what the law is.

You see, a dictator, the law is in your mouth. It's whatever I say. It's whatever I think at any given moment. We don't have something written down to be objectively determined. It's all subjective. And if I don't like you, well, it's precisely the vagueness inherent in defining hate that makes the law appealing to a state seeking to wield its power. This person rightfully says, is this the future that ireland wants well if so then those who favor this should be honest enough to admit it it truly truly is criminal well the uh we're

going to take a quick break i've got a new song here uh and this was i was going to take a quick break. I've got a new song here. And I was going to play for you what the little ditty was that I based this on. It was, since we're talking about Ireland, it was a virtual instrument, an Irish harp that I got for free. And in it, they had a little MIDI sequence that was a demo of the harp and some of its capabilities. And I thought, well, that's kind of interesting. And so I built this. We'll use this as a bumper here. I built this around the little Irish harp ditty that you'll hear at the center of this. Thank you. You're listening to The David Knight Show.

Um, we'll be coming up, uh, we'll be talking as part of this, uh, talking about what is happening, uh, with war and other things, uh, which always reminds me of, uh, Gerald Slinty said when all else fails, they take you to war. And that's where we are right about now. So if you want to subscribe to Trends Journal, TrendsJournal.com, that's Gerald Salenti's publication, weekly publication, a tremendous amount of information there every week.

want to subscribe to trends journal you can save 10 if you use the code night and that helps the show as well let's talk a little bit about gold super bull market and gold is about to start says charles niner he is a geopolitical and financial cycle expert he says the war cycle will continue to amplify until world war three breaks out same thing gerald slenty is saying right meanwhile unpayable debt will continue to explode until another great Depression hits America again. Fourth turning, as we point out. Always financial unrest in a fourth turning. Always.

But usually accompanied by war as well. Again, the previous fourth turning is about every four generations, about every 80 years. You have a massive restructuring of institutions accompanied by financial unrest, usually accompanied by war. The previous fourth turning was a great depression of world war two. Prior to that civil war prior to that, the American revolution, Strauss and how who coined the term millennial went back 500 years in British and American history to show that cycle repeated over and over again.

And the different characteristics of the different four generations. Again, they coined the term millennial. Everybody looks at these different generations now. But the press that talks all the time about generation X and Z and all this stuff and millennials. They don't want you to see the cyclical nature of it. And they don't want you to see the time and the season that we're in. So they won't address the fourth turning specifically. But again,

as I also pointed out when they predicted that it was going to begin in the middle two thousands, they said that in the early nineties, you know, about 15 years before it kicked off, they said, the mid two thousands is going to be some kind of a global financial issue that's going to kick off the fourth turning.

And it'll probably result in war, and it'll probably be finished about 2029 or something like that. But when you look at the timing, and you look at the fact that it is usually accompanied by war, they also mentioned, like I said, they went back 500 years in American and British history. But they said, now the world has become synchronized. Synchronized.

We're all on the same cycle because we have global media and there's so much feedback that is happening with that. Everybody is on this cycle. This is why this fourth turning is going to be really big different civilizations have had fourth turnings at different times depending on whether or not they were in close contact with each other russia's uh 72-year flirtation with uh communism uh was um you know like that but it wasn't synchronized uh but when we go back and we look at the civil war we were synchronized in the industrial revolution with europe and so you had several of these consolidation moves like which is what the civil war was you had a civil war in italy at exactly the same time 1861 to 1865 and it was about the industrial revolution uh the dollar's buying power he says could could

possibly be cut in half he said that's the reason why we expect a super bull market in gold and silver when the cycle bottoms you remember i came on and said coming but not yet uh to the person he gave the interview to he says um i said it was too early but now we're getting very close to a bull market gold could still have one more down move because the cycles are still down. But again, regardless of the timing of all of this stuff, that's one of the reasons why, you know, Tony's got his program where you can gradually purchase gold,

his Wolfpack thing at Wise Wolf. And again, you can get there with davidknight.gold. It'll take you to Tony Arteman's Wise Wolf. But, you know, just buying it as you have want to set aside some time, set aside some money in terms of savings, average out your costs, because it is coming. We don't know the exact timing of all this. On Bitcoin, Nenner says, we had a high of $54,000.

And we said if we hit $52,000 000 we would sell ours he says i don't believe this story that bitcoin will hit a hundred thousand dollars based on my work he says it's been proven that nasdaq and bitcoin go up and down together why because people are buying them out of greed he says and so on we got more to say about what is happening with nigeria coming after their war on crypto as they try to push through cbdc but before we leave the war angle this is another one from von grayerts and i like the headline war plus inflation equals gold well that's where we are right now inflation and war pointing to gold says all the fundamentals are now in place for that equation to be true. Wars will sadly not go away, but instead escalate since there is zero all uppercase zero desire for peace from the from the U from the U S neocons or from the weak Europeans, inflation and interest rates will increase rapidly driven by deficits and

exponential growth of debt wars and inflation will lead to major shift into gold by central banks and the bricks, as well as for wealth preservation purposes. He said, Aristotle said two 2300 years ago, poverty is the parent of parent of revolution and crime. And he said, and I would also add war. Poverty, the parent of revolution, crime, and war.

He said, I added war since this is often the consequence of poverty and bankruptcy for a nation in a desperate attempt to borrow more money and to blame the war for the economic woes. Isn't one of the reasons why Gerald Slenty says, well, when all else fails, they take you to war to reset the table. He said the U.S. is not led by a visible leader. That's right. We're not being led by Biden.

Everybody likes to say everything that happens is Biden's fault. And technically it is, it's his administration. You know, we call it the Biden administration because you know, he's, he's there, but you know,

he's kind of like the corporate symbol, like, you know, Mickey mouse is for Disney. Mickey mouse is not real. Mickey mouse is not making the decisions, but it's the visible face of, of the corporation.

And that's what Biden is. That's what Trump is. Mickey Mouse is not making the decisions, but he's the visible face of the corporation. And that's what Biden is. That's what Trump is. The visible face of the corporation. So we're not led by a visible leader, but by an invisible and unaccountable group of neocons who only want war. And of course, as Christians, we understand we don't struggle with flesh and blood. We struggle with rulers in high places an unseen realm that is evil that is conspiring that's why this all looks like a conspiracy because it is it is a

multi-generational conspiracy you know we can talk about some of the families that are that are tied in like the rothschilds for example or the rockefellers or whatever but you know this is uh this goes through multiple generations, through multiple institutions and everything. And of course, a lot of them pass this on as well. But this relentlessness that is there, this dogged determinism is there. Also, I'm so tired of the term neocon.

I think we got to do away with it. They're not conservative and these ideas aren't new. Yeah, that's right. Yeah. These are just socialists. They'reists stop just stop it with these terms yeah they they like to call themselves conservative because it used to be cool to be called a conservative it's kind of losing its coolness here now they're now uh maga cons i guess but yeah you're right it's um you know the neocons these are people you know the reason It's, um, you know, the neocons, these are people,

you know, the reason this came up was because you had, uh, you had people who had been Democrats, uh, and, uh, especially during the Reagan administration. Oh, what was that woman's name? I can't remember. She was one of the worst warmongers. But she was a good example of this. Oh, well, now I'm a born-again conservative, right? She never was. And as I've said many times, you've heard me say it. The Democrats of my youth are now communists. The Republicans of my youth are now socialist Democrats.

The Republicans have now become socialist Democrats of my youth. Everything has shifted to that degree. So he said, we don't have a visible leader. We've got a group of warmongers. And in Europe, there's no statesmen to be found. Instead, we have weak European leaders who are following a headless U.S. The U.S. neocons want to crush Russia by any means. If the war against Russia carried carried out by in ukraine escalates

russia will have many friends on their side like china north korea iran the u.s and nato do not have the capacity to win a war on the ground so any war involving the west will be in the air very likely nuclear by the way um it's kind of interesting you know we sent them the m1 abrams tanks which i believe are state-of-the-art tanks you know, we sent them the M1 Abrams tanks, which I believe are state of the art tanks. You know, they haven't been redesigned for several decades, but they didn't really need to. They were so dominant and still dominant compared to what other countries have. But, uh, tanks are not really doing well in this war. I mean, it's kind of like battleships in world war two.

They really had, um, they were of use in previous wars but not so much now and so um that already been said and and so at the end of the week last week we had the first of the m1 abrams tanks going to war and they put up a video of it in ukraine and it's going down this muddy road and you know it pauses and it shoots a long distance and you see something blow up. It shoots the second time you see something else further on blow up and everything. And so they they did this and they put it up. This war, folks. Is a product placement war for the military industrial complex.

Oh, look, here's our M1 Abrams tank in battle. And it gives them bragging rights so they can go to some 10-pot dictator and sell their multimillion-dollar hardware to him. Look at how well this is performing and everything. What they don't want to see are pictures of their premier product burning. And that's what's happened now. They put it in the service at the end of the week. At the beginning of the week, the first one is taken out. And Russia put the picture of that up and said the M1 Abrams tanks burn

like all the rest of them. Now, of course, as we look at this, it's not simply about the hardware, but it's also about the people inside, isn't it? Do they care about the people inside? The people running NATO, the people running our government don't care about the people inside of the tank. And they don't care about the people inside of Ukraine either. Because they created this coup a decade ago, 2014. And for eight years, that government that they put in place shelled civilian populations

in Donetsk and Crimea and other for the sin of wanting self-governance or the sin of wanting to be with Russia because they had a Russian culture. They shelled civilian populations for eight years. The people in Ukraine were already sick of war. And they voted in 2019. After five years of that, they voted for a party that promised peace. That was Zelensky's party. And Arestovich, who I've talked about many times, Alexei Arestovich,

who was going to be their negotiator. they come back and the ukraine press says so what's the chance of peace he says none as a matter of fact it's going to get worse we're going to be devastated oh that's horrible no the good news is we're going to get into nato and so that's the ruthlessness of our government just like they overthrew iran with the iranian duly elected leftist yeah he's a leftist he was going to nationalize the oil industries and stuff but they elected him all these people say well democracy this and democracy that um they elected him in the 19 was that 1953 or something the cia overthrew him in a coup. They put in the Shah, a king.

They trained his secret police, the SAVAK, to ruthlessly shut down any opposition. And what did we get from that? That ruthless Shah regime and the SAVAK created the Ayatollahs, put them in power as a blowback against all of that stuff. The U.S. also wants to crush the Muslim Arab world. The U.S. is also supporting Israel against Hamas and the Houthis in Yemen. By the way, the Houthis just blew up an undersea cable, communications cable, cutting off Europe from the people in that area, the Houthis. I wonder if they used a blowfish to do that. A cyber war is also very likely.

The U.S. has absolutely no desire for peace. War plus inflation equals gold. That's the thing that you, what can you do about this stuff? Well, you know, there's certain things that you can do and certain things you can't do. You really can't stop these people who are hell bent on war. Hell bent on a world war. A world war three that already they got three, you know, two hot areas and they're working on a third one with China. You can't do anything about that.

But you can prepare financially. For the effects of war plus inflation. You can do that with gold again, David Knight dot gold to take you to Tony Artaban, let's take a look at the CBDC thing. Nigeria is blocking access to Coinbase, to Binance, to Kraken as their Naira, their currency, as it falls to record lows. Nigeria has taken drastic measures in an attempt to stabilize its plummeting national currency by blocking access to major cryptocurrency exchanges, reports the Financial Times. This move comes as the Nigerian government attempts to crack down on currency speculation

amid record lows for the Naira. The Nigerian Communications Commission issued orders to telecom companies late on Wednesday to restrict consumer access to websites of major cryptocurrency platforms like Binance, Coinbase and Kraken. So in other words, they launched a cyber attack, if you will. You can do the same thing by false flag cyber attack or something like that. But they're just going out and saying, no, you're not going to buy crypto. Why? Because they have tried. What is interesting about Nigeria is that it's the canary in a coal mine

for this globalist scheme of imposing CBDC on the rest of us. And so they went there because they said, well, there's a lot of people who are using cryptocurrency in Nigeria compared to other comparable countries in the third world or, say, the developing world or whatever. And so there was already a lot of people using cryptocurrency. So they said, well, we think that they might be amenable to a CBDC. And so they introduced the CBDC. They tried to shove it in very quickly. They tried to remove cash,

a whole thing blew up in their face and everybody ran to crypto. So what's the response. We're going to shut down the exchanges. Yeah. Shut down the crypto exchanges. Um, this came out as, as people were talking,

it looks like they're blocked access to this stuff and so the special advisor for information and strategy to the president of nigeria went to social media to say yes the press reports are correct the nigerian government is blocking binance octa fx coinbase and others he said so the cryptocurrency exchanges have played a big role in establishing unofficial market prices for their currency with platforms like binance offering are often serving as benchmarks for local foreign currency exchange rates you see you have something that uh you you can't just arbitrarily go in and change the value of it, and you can't manipulate it. That's what the cryptocurrencies are about. That's what gold and silver are about.

You have something like that that's not easily manipulated by them, and it becomes a problem for them in terms of manipulating the value of their fiat currency. As I've mentioned before, years ago, Jim Rogers, who was an assistant to Soros at one point in time, but he doesn't share Soros' politics, but Soros kind of got rich off of Jim Rogers' savviness. But back in the early 90s, he wrote a book called Investment Biker, and he went around the world. Of course, he had to take planes and boats to some of the places, but he went around the world on a motorcycle, uh, with his girlfriend making observations about what life was and mostly financial observations. And the key one that I remember from that book was he said, you can

always tell how corrupt a government is by looking at the difference in exchange rate between the official exchange rate and the black market exchange rate the real exchange rate and if that is you know really wide you know it's a very corrupt government well you know that about nigeria now crypto should be banned in our country or else this bleeding of our currency will continue unabated. This person is coming from the same place as Liz Warren and these other people. Nigeria's adoption of rash methods to defend its currency, including shutting down websites declaring certain cryptocurrency entities illegal, highlights the challenges the country is facing in managing economic stability. But this is all about them pushing CBDC.

That is really what they're focusing on. Finally, one last monetary article here. I thought this was ominous. You have national parks are quietly going cashless. Cashless. April of last year, Death Valley Park in California, for example, announced they would only receive credit and or debit card payments. They claimed that they took in $22,000 in cash payments,

but it cost them $40,000 to have it processed. Oh, really? I don't believe that at all. I mean, what about your credit card fees? No, we know what this is about, and we know this is about gradually strangling, uh, uh,

strangling the use of cash to limit our travels. For example, not going to go to a national park. I think it's bad enough that we should have to pay to get into the parks. Don't you? I think it's an outrage that the last park that they didn't have an interest fee to the one here, great smoking mountain national park.

Uh, they, uh, had to claw their way into that because there's a, it was already a road running through it and they couldn't just shut down the road. Uh, and so there was an agreement with the state of Tennessee that they would not charge any admission to it. It's one of the reasons why it was the most heavily visited park. So they came up with a workaround and said, uh, well, okay, it's not going to be an entrance fee, but if you stop your car, we can give you a ticket for parking unless you pay. And now you're going to have to do that cashlessly because that is what is being forced upon us. We'll be right back.

Stay with us. We'll be right back. Stay with us. Whether you're feeling like the blues or bluegrass, APS Radio has you covered. Check out a wide variety of channels on our app at APSradio.com. Thank you. You're listening to the david knight show i want to talk a little bit about what is happening with trump's trials and tribulations of course and there has now been a new development according to jim jordan he says he's got a whistleblower saying that there was a Biden operative inserted into the Fannie team. And so the corruption just keeps building for this corrupt district attorney, Fannie Willis. It looks like both she and her boyfriend, who is married,

it looks like both of them have committed perjury when questioned about their relationship. This is a pretty serious charge that is happening, but of course it was also amazing when she talked about her use of cash. Well, I just don't have any records about what I did with him. Especially in light, as reason magazine pointed out in light of her department using rico laws and civil asset forfeiture laws to such a great extent anybody else other than her you have a stash of cash well that is criminal let me have that. Because civil asset forfeiture is going to appeal to somebody who is a criminal. It is a criminal operation.

When they start stealing cash and not convicting people, let alone even charging them with a crime, that's just government theft. go along with that, you wind up with people like Fannie Willis, who on the trial was asked about her cash hoard, and she thought something else was being asked of her. My words, cash hoard that you had collected over time. Cash what? Hoard, H-O-R-D-E. I thought you said something different, sir. No, I'm afraid I wouldn't say that. Any circumstances to you or in all right

back on track the whore cash hoard yeah i would not she's not taking this very seriously that's how drunk with power she is yeah i did all this stuff you know and broke all these laws and i got all the but uh yeah they can't touch me. I'm a district attorney. She also had this to say about her stacks of cash. But I always have cash at the house. That has been, I don't know, all my life. If you're a woman and you go on a date with a man, you better have $200 in your pocket.

So if that man acts up, you can go where you want to go. So I keep cash in my house, and I don't keep cash as good in my purse like I used to because I don't go on many dates. But when you go on a date, you should have cash in your pocket. So my question was, where did that cash originally come from if it didn't come out of the bank? Cash is fungible. I've had cash for years in my house. So for me to tell you the source of where it comes from,

when you go to Publix and you buy something, you get $50, you throw it in there. It's been my whole life. When I took out a large amount of money on my first campaign, I kept some of the cash of that. To tell you I just have cash in my house, I don't have as much today as I would normally have, but I'm building back up now. So you just put money in. It's a very good practice. I would advise have, but I'm building back up now. So you just put money in. It's a very good practice. I would advise it to all women.

Unless there's some kind of a district attorney like her, somebody who's involved in the scam of civil asset forfeiture. So many times people pulled over. What's the cash you've got in there? You got a stack of cash in there. Well, I just sold something and i'm on my way home you know and and even if they can prove it the cops and people like this district attorney will steal it from them one standard for them another standard for us and then there's this was this

being orchestrated by biden well of course we know it was right but now they he says he's got a whistleblower there the biden administration uh says um jim jordan planted a democrat operative in the fulton county office to target former president trump and to coordinate all this stuff right well here's the thing um yes we are banana republic but the question is, I would ask Jim Jordan, who I think is one of the worst showboaters out there. When are you going to shut up and do something? You keep holding these hearings and yet you won't pass any laws to reform any of this stuff. They do nothing except preen for the cameras. You got all this corruption.

Why can't you make this a federal crime? You know, that's what they say the FBI is for. Well, we got corrupt local officials who bring in the federal officials to keep them in line you don't do anything jim you and the republicans do nothing about any of this stuff we all see what's happening here but does everybody see how passive these republicans are about it how they normalize this or they might come in and say, well, we're going to do it ourselves. Uh, so the guy that supposedly is coordinating with him, his name is DeSantis, but it's with an I. So I guess it's DeSantis. I don't know.

Interesting coincidence there. Uh, but, um, uh, again, they said, uh, you know, on that grand jury, there wasn't a single conservative person on that grand jury. Well, of course not. The grand jury is a rigged process, as we've heard and said over and over again. They set up these grand juries so they can indict a ham sandwich, and they're just testing their case. And they test their case frequently with people who are not, you know, going to be questioning it too heavily. I thought this was an excellent article from Peter Leithart on First Things. And he's not a Trump supporter, just like me. And the question is, why is Trump still wildly popular?

A question I continue to ask myself. He states it like this. He says, despite a mountain of indictments and relentless media assaults, Trump remains wildly popular with a large portion of the American people. Despite his history of sexual promiscuity, dishonesty, exaggeration,

despite his evident fickleness, his recklessness, his narcissism, his vulgarity, his adultery. I could go on and on. He stops there at vulgarity. But millions of Christians will vote for him. He says, self-identified evangelicals who aren't active churchgoers are his strongest supporters.

But there's plenty of enthusiasm among committed Christians and Jews as well. He says, some have explained this phenomenon by charging that evangelicals have adopted a religion of power, exchanging Messiah Jesus for Messiah Donald, the savior of America. No doubt there is slippage and rationalization amongst Christian Trumpists, but that can't be the whole story, he says. Nor is it a matter of dispassionate political calculation, as if Trump were marginally better than the other bad options. Christian support of Trump this time around is not grudging, but fervent, often gleeful.

It won't do to dismiss these millions of people as deluded hypocrites or hordes seething with anger most of them are old-fashioned americans good church-going neighbors with jobs children and hopes for the future only a sociologist could suspect them of harboring authoritarian tendencies he says i don't share the enthusiasm for trump but friends and millions of fellow citizens do. And so I wanted to understand what they see. He says, I found Rene Girard's theory of sacrificial crisis and scapegoating to be helpful in grasping the political rationality at work in the pro-Trump order. And so as an example of this, I want to play for you,

this is something going around on social media now, you know, you have the ability with artificial intelligence to clone voices and to also translate into different languages. And so somebody took a fragment of a Hitler speech and they cloned his voice and translated it into english and i want you to first it shows him in black and white uh you know screaming in german which sounds a lot scarier but then he starts talking in english so that you can understand what he's saying You do my work for the right cause. And you believe that I was a slave. I do my work for correctness. Whether you believe that I have been diligent, that I have worked, that I have advocated for you in these years, that I have been decent,

I have spent my time in service of my people. Now cast your vote if yes then stand up for me as i have stood up for you stand up for me as i have stood up for you i've worked hard diligently look at what i have sacrificed look at what i have suffered i'm between you and them they're only coming after me because i'm between you and them yeah according to gerard he says humans desire things because other people desire them we want to keep up with the joneses or be like mike problem is many things cannot be shared uh if two men desire the same woman for for example, they cannot both have her. They become rivals. They form a classic love triangle with all the scarce resources. When desire doubles itself,

it inclines toward violence. As a society reaches a sacrificial crisis that Gerard talks about, when everyone is locked in rivalry with everyone else over everything, society dissolves into a war of all against all. At that point, ancient cultures had a ready solution. You bring forth a scapegoat who is marked by some distinctive physical features. Lame or blind or black, sheep or something like that. Heap up all the accumulated hostilities and hatreds on him so society can be reconciled around a common object or hatred. After the scapegoat is expelled or killed, peace reigns until the next crisis. Scapegoats can be corporate.

It can be Jews. It can be Trotskyites. It can be Christians in the Roman Empire. It could be white people today in the eyes of the American government, right? They're the problem. Everything comes back to white privilege. Everything comes back to this and that. We've seen this over and over again.

This is not simply to, you know, it's to unify the country against a common enemy, is what he's talking about. And, of course, that's what the Nazis did with the Jews. That's what the American government is doing with white people. According to Girard, Christianity undoes this scapegoat mechanism by insisting on the innocence of the scapegoat. Jesus is not guilty and never pretends to be. Neither do his disciples or the early Christian martyrs. And remember, martyr is simply Greek for witness these

are people who were killed because they refused to deny what they had witnessed but again they were not guilty they insist that their killers are the guilty ones when the scapegoat doesn't cooperate in his own execution the whole system grinds to a halt or implodes and a new ordering of society becomes possible a fourth turning which is what we're in american society is at a critical moment he says we have a war of faction against faction against faction against faction one faction trots out an orange-haired scapegoat trump and. And for many of our elites, Trump is a moral threat to democracy, the chief source of disorder, the mobilizer of the deplorables. Remove him and peace will flow like a river.

He must be destroyed to save democracy. The problem is Trump isn't acting like a scapegoat, whatever his personal religious convictions, if he has any. In this drama, he's acting the part of an early church martyr. I've done nothing wrong. It's a witch hunt, he keeps saying. And from that standpoint, he's right. And this is what makes him a sympathetic victim.

And this is what makes his popularity skyrocket every time they indict him. So that's why they gave him 92 indictments and why they've got this sham case in New York, because the Democrats want him. They want him there. As the anti-scapegoat, he refuses to admit guilt or defeat, even when he is defeated. As long as he plays the anti-scapegoat, as long as America remains contentious, Trump's enemies don't win. Many Christians and conservatives believe his enemies are also their enemies,

which means that Trump's intransigence keeps their enemies from winning too. Well, again, this is what Hitler was telling people as well. They're coming after me because I worked hard for you. Now vote for me, support me, that type of thing. The elites who despise Trump disdain benighted Americans who cling to their guns and their religion. The people who want to destroy Trump want to reprogram the millions whose restless discontent he's done so much to unleash. And so what do we do about this? Well, the reality is the principles matter.

We have to see the overall game. We have to understand the game that both sides are playing in this you have to go back you have to look at his is he really the scapegoat or is he a fake goat is he a judas goat you see that is how i see him that is how i see him because of what he did in 2020 that is how i I see him because of January the 6th in 2021. And that is how I see him today. A man totally devoid of any principles, who is driven by narcissism, revenge, and I would also add greed, endless greed. And he is available to whoever wants to pull his strings

and to give him cash. And yet, that's the way people see him. They see him as a scapegoat, and we should be very careful about that. Again, without calling him Hitler, we need to understand the dynamics of that and the psychology of that. And we need to not see him as a pathetic, helpless victim. He refused to give a helping hand to even his own followers. He refused to help Julian Assange. He

refused to help the January six people. He refused to help middle America. He called middle America non-essential. So I hope you can see what he does and see beyond this play. It's a theater, right? Professional wrestling, it's theater. And these are the archetypes that you're being fed meanwhile when we look at the actual reality of what is happening on the ground in terms of like i said you know uh rightly or wrongly and i think it's wrongly this conviction in new york that he has but the massive amount there that's a big problem for him. And now, even as he puts in Laura Trump, and of course, they're going to, you know, by Super Tuesday, by March the 5th, they just had Rona McDaniel say she's going to leave the RNC. And so he will consolidate himself as the anointed king after Super Tuesday.

Nikki Haley says she's going to stay in until super Tuesday. She'll get out. She most likely will continue to go on, uh, with no labels or something like that, because they said they're not going to make their decision until after super Tuesday, she's going to stay until super Tuesday.

They're going to make their decision after super Tuesday. Uh, we'll see what happens with that. Meanwhile, Trump will be the anointed nominee. And that's when the changing of the guard happens at the RNC. And Laura Trump has already said that she's got one job there at the RNC. And that is to make sure that every penny, every penny that is raised by the Republican National Committee goes to electing Trump.

Forget about any governorships. Forget about Congress. Democrats can have Congress. All we need is Trump in the White House. He can do everything by himself. It's a destruction of the RNC from the inside. They've already, though, had some pushback on this. Um, the RNC, uh, you've had, um, people have, um, said, well, we want to make sure that the money that the RNC has is not going to be used to pay for Trump's legal debt. And you have, um, columnist saying that, uh, the RNC plans will not pay for that legal debt.

So, uh, that depends on whether or not that's going to hold or not. He's going to put his, you know, a person who has close ties to him in, plus his daughter-in-law to do that. So again, he's got this $454 million judgment in this New York civil case. And he needs to appeal, but he's got to come up with that money or they're going to start confiscating property. But this appeal is going to go on for quite some time. And this appeal is going to be made to an intermediate.

It's not going up to the, this is a state court, by the way, this is not federal. And so who is he going to appeal this to? Well, first, there's going to be an intermediate court. Ultimately, he's going to go to the Supreme Court of New York. And look at this. The Justice of the Equality Supreme Court, first of all, the Equality of the Equality of the Equality. I'm here.

That is the Equality of the Equality. All rise. This all African-American bench, which happens to have all women, fittingly taking place during Black History Month, presiding Justice Diane Renwick and Justices Troy Weber, Tanya Kennedy, Bahati Pitberg, and Marsha Michael, hearing oral arguments today before the Appellate Division First Judicial Department in Manhattan. When we come back.

Well, isn't that interesting? So when he gets to the New York Supreme Court, I don't know what's going to happen in the intermediate step. But when he gets to the New York Supreme Court, he's going to be going up before all of the members are all black women. They'll be Democrats just like Letitia James. And as they point out, despite only accounting for 1.5% of lawyers, 100% of the New York State Supreme Court are black women. What are his chances with that?

Getting a fair hearing. Well, I don't think it's looking too good for him in new york and um and of course um it is all political and we know that these uh justice appointments are all political uh it is not blind justice by any means but did you notice that when they're introducing those supremes you know it's all black girl group, that one of them was named Diane. So we'll go out with something from the Supremes. Set me free, why don't you, baby? Get out my life, why don't you, baby?

Wish you don't really love me. You just keep me hanging up you don't really need me but you keep me hanging up why do you keep coming around why don't you get out of my life and let me make a new start? The Common Man. They created Common Core to dumb down our children. They created Common Pass to dumb down our children. They created Common Past to track and control us. Their Commons Project to make sure the commoners own nothing.

And the communist future. They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary. But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God. That is what we have in common. That is what they want to take away. Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation. They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us. It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide.

TheDavidKnightShow.com. Jack Lawson, he just told me he couldn't hear the Supremesies. He loves that group, but he didn't get the audio feed of the music coming out there. Jack Lawson, publisher of Civil Defense Manual, the two-volume book that you can find at CivilDefenseManual.com. We talk about here frequently. It covers so many different topics. But, you know, today we've got a lot of different topics to talk about here because there are so many different threats on the horizon. And they're all escalating in so many different ways. So joining us now is Jack Lawson.

Thank you for joining us, sir. Always a pleasure, David. Always a pleasure. Good to have you on. Let's talk a little bit about, you know, the first time we ever talked. Let's begin with what happened with at&t last week because first time we ever talked we talked about how fragile the infrastructure is and uh so you know we had the cell phones go down and part of that was as i talked about last week the the effect that happened was it grounded a lot of uh transportation a lot

of trucking uh was shut down uh because it created complications for them and dispatchers and other stuff like that. So we see over and over again how an attack on some ancillary part of the infrastructure, for example, the pipeline, the colonial pipeline, they shut down their accounting system. So then they shut down the pipeline. No oil is moving if we can't get paid for it. You shut down things like the cell phone system. And of course, they have a lot of different apps.

Many truckers depend on when they are running that. So you just shut down things like the cell phone system, and of course, they have a lot of different apps many truckers depend on when they are running that. So you just shut down all the shipping. So it's very easy to shut down stuff like this. You've been looking at this, and your son is kind of a computer expert as well, a cybersecurity or something. What is your take on it? Do you think it was multiple choice here? Was it Solar Flare? Was it ransomware?

Was it an AT&t upgrade or was it a hack what do you think probably a little bit of everything uh when i say that i mean it in this light uh i've got a friend who uh i graduated from high school with He's a dirt poor farm kid like me. He ended up being a director of electronics for Lockheed for their skunk works. And he has a program, a lot of them, that he looks at. He's retired now, but one of them is the measurement of solar flares. And he warned me a couple of days ahead of time that there were going to be some really bad X-class

solar storms, which would interfere most likely with a lot of our frequency systems in the country. Second thing being, my son is he's a very intelligent boy i had to joke he was

sergeant of his marine corps scouts sniper unit and i said you survived that you still got an iq of 165 so he's he's gotten himself a really good job he's a very intelligent guy he's the cyber security one of the managers for a fortune 500 company there's a very intelligent guy he's the cyber security one of the managers for a fortune 500 company there's only a couple of them there but he has a very unique perspective of what goes on and he said the hacking has got an epidemic it's never going to stop yeah no matter what they put in for systems. And I think the third thing that everybody is overlooking is what I actually term the destruction of human productive time by technology colliding with itself.

When I say technology colliding with itself, I'm talking about such things as normal functions people use on a computer that are constantly being updated or they're getting to the point to where uh two-stage identification ping backs all of this are causing problems with them interrelating with other programs that they've been with i spent an hour and a half yesterday on the phone with my banker, and they helped me out quite a bit. And it blew me away what we had to go through to reconnect one particular system and it's all, it's all from, uh, from some, some of this is necessary because of the hacking. But, uh, I think some of it is also, I was involved with software

development at one time. It was what I call the, uh, uh, what if syndrome people that are working on these programs and our MRS MIS directors are always saying what if it could do this what if it could do that and they diffuse their activities and in the process they think that their system is the only one you're dealing with so consequently what you end up with constant changes to programs that look simple to them and beneficial to the customer, but are a total disaster and are functioning without relating together. Yeah.

Uh, I really think you probably hit part of it. There is the, uh, I don't think so much hacking as the solar flares. Hmm. Yeah. Well, I know I looked at the solar flares. I thought, well, it looks like this is more heavily focused on AT&T than it is on other carriers, although there were several carriers that were done. And I didn't see that anybody, even AT&T, when they came out with it, they said, well, we messed up a software update.

It's like, okay, well, if you messed up a software update, how did that affect these other companies? And if it was a solar flare and, you, and some people put that out, talked about the X flare that was coming out, but then they also, I think it was NOAA, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, said, no, it wasn't a solar flare. But when you look at a solar flare, I would have expected that just like an EMP or something, it would have affected a wider range of hardware and it would have been a hardware base and it would have affected more than just primarily a handful of carriers and primarily at&t so i looked at it i thought well as you point out you know it certainly is a cyber security nightmare now and is getting worse all the time i just look at this stuff and what I,

that's usually my default fallback position. Somebody's messing around with something deliberately somewhere. Now who it is, we don't know, right? If it's a state actor, any state, you know, anybody can, can look like anything that they want to a vault seven. We know that, right? Uh, they got the tools to disguise themselves as Russia or North Korea or anybody. But, you know, is it done because of a criminal gang or is it done by a state actor? That's always the things that we can never really know when something like that is happening. But it does show the vulnerability. And regardless of what happens, whether it is a physical thing or whether it is a hack attack, whether it's done uh private criminals willing to make

money or because of a state attacking another state or because of a false flag attack by that the the bottom line is is that we have a very fragile infrastructure and it continues to get more and more fragile doesn't it my god i can't believe how we've painted ourselves in a corner yeah uh we really don't have uh much of anything for defense against this type of thing i mean these people have hacked everything uh the postal systems tracking service was down from what i can determine during that time my mortgage company one of the biggest if not i think it's the biggest in the nation my mortgage company was down for 11 days somebody got inside their system and i don't know what all happened whether it was a ransomware

thing somebody wants 300 million dollars or or whatever to put them back online but uh they were feverishly working to get the system functioning again yeah i cannot believe how we painted ourselves in a corner day. I mean, you talk about dropping a nuclear bomb on this country. It just about as bad shutting his computer computer systems down. Don't you think? Oh yeah. As a matter of fact, that one person I talked to frequently

about, um, cybersecurity issues. He just goes by the name of goat tree. He says, you know, when he looks at this, he's a consultant that come, they hire him to troubleshoot this stuff. His fallback position is when something like this happens and it's some kind of an attack or some kind of equipment failure first thing he looks for is okay so what's going on with the people who might profit from this on the inside you know he typically looks at it's like an inside job not necessarily a hack from the outside by a state actor or by a criminal group

for ransomware but usually sometimes it's going to be somebody doing something on the inside because you know they're getting ready for retirement and they want to do something janitor yeah exactly or the ceo yeah it's just incredible how people don't uh they just don't have any concept shut your cell phone off for a day yeah you get an idea of uh what is the term they have they have a term for it addiction it's uh no it's like an abandonment complex for a baby being left outside you know that's the effect it has in your mind and And it just blows me away how absolutely critical it is that these systems that we're relying on them. Yeah. And it just blows me away.

But outside of that, I'm not any expert on X-class solar flares. I just know my friend called me out of the blue. And he's got all kinds of electronics degrees and he said look out you know in the next couple of days and there were problems yeah not severe enough to destroy the electronics but severe enough to enter i've had i was in electronics in the air force archaic now but uh it wasn't severe enough to destroy semiconductors it causes a reverse current through them that's too it blows them up essentially uh it when it comes down it doesn't know which way it's going in a circuit in a

circuit and if it goes in it goes in the wrong way it'll go against what is the normal semiconductor flow pattern and it'll burn it out but it it wasn't bad enough for that but it's bad enough disrupt the rf signals that were being sent out yeah and of course you know when i you and i have talked in the past about emp and the fact that the government's not doing anything to protect against that but even just the simple stuff the the gross neglect that we see in the border situation, that's a whole other area there that we need to be concerned about, and that is the fact that we just have rampant crime, gangs that can come in, that type of thing. I mean, your take on the border and the kind of threat that presents to us

and the kinds of things that we need to do to address that threat. Well, what blows me away is I ran across something the other day. We're talking about, and I'm not picking on anybody's church because there are plenty of them to pick on here. I've never even heard of some of these organizations a number one got 740 42 million dollars last year was catholic charities u.s conference of catholic bishop lucerne church got 471 million i don't know what church world services is 433 million world relief. That's supposed to be another church.

Uh, 416 million Hebrew immigrant aid society, 186 million, the Episcopal migration ministries, whatever that is, 146 million. These people don't need anybody to put it in the, uh,

offering plate anymore i mean they have money coming in left right and center apparently this money is being paid by us yes our taxes into the un and being dispersed back for those people not before on any other basis other than they get paid per head i I think it's $300 a head for each person. I don't know that for sure. Yeah. Yeah. So it's,

you know, you look at this and founding, you can, you know, it was a perfect, a perfect thing for that because they can always make the case that they're doing it out of compassion and humanitarian interest. And yet there is also a mercenary aspect of it and they become tools,

uh, regardless of what their motivation is, uh, they become tools of it, and they become tools, regardless of what their motivation is. They become tools of this whole network of NGOs, and I guess maybe Soros is the pope of some of those churches or something. Could be. Or Ursula von der Leyen. Maybe she's a pope of one of these churches. They can say whatever they want to justify themselves.

And I've got this lunatic thinking in my family too. I'll just say this. If you want to live in a third world country, bring the third world here, which is exactly what they're doing. They have no concept of what six or 30 million people that are totally alien to our culture will do to this culture that's right and uh i as far as these churches professing uh altruism on this my last uh i parachuted into

zombia in 1978 and i was astounded these guys said said, come over here, look at this. And I walked over to a pile of suds. Suds is ground mealy corn. It's like flour is to us. It's ground wheat to us. They grind up big kernels of maize corn and put water in it and cook it. And I went over there, and I just about had false teeth. It would have dropped in the ground i could not believe donated by world consulate churches methodist senate that's the church i was baptized

and that's the church i was brought up in until i told my mom uh even despite her threats to waterboard me i wasn't going anymore and and i didn And I didn't go to that church for a long time. But I saw this, and I was furious about it. They knew exactly where this was. This was a communist camp. And that's where the food was gone, and they knew where it was gone. And then I find out that 60 Minutes has one full hour on this thing, somewhere around 1984 or 5 um of course they always report

the news when when uh their side has won and they have got another thing to bash and it was bashing christianity through this article but they showed the same thing that i saw and my mother played the organ for 50 years in the Methodist church. I told her about this and he refused to believe me. You know, I mean, rest her soul. She's a good woman, but she just couldn't conceive that somebody would do this thing. So they can say whatever they want, bringing these people in. When Venezuela empties this prison system out and Yes. And they're bringing them in.

I mean, it's already started to happen. Cops were getting attacked. And we've seen this before. I grew up in Florida. I remember when Castro emptied out his prisons and sent them into Florida. That was nothing compared to the scope of what is happening with this. And when you look, I've talked many times about that small island in in italy where they had a population of 6 000 people small island and they brought in 18 000 young single

males into that area that was supporting 6 000 that's total chaos that is completely destroyed and that's by design and again as you point out our government is paying for it what do you think about what is happening at the border? I mean, I look at this and, you know, at first you can say, well, at least the governors are saying we have to take some responsibility for this. And if the federal government's not going to act, we need to do something. But they're not doing anything. I've seen Abbott do these little uh you know displays of parking uh state trooper cars down at the border and a small line i've seen him do that kind of stuff before it's

all focused on just one little town an eagle pass right uh you know do you think that anything is is going to change even with the governor's talking about this i don't either they're just uh they're they're going through the motions yep like typical politicians do go through the motions like typical politicians do. Go through the motions, appear like you're doing something. You know who Michael Yon is. He is very, very distrustful of Abbott. And I tend to believe what Michael Yon says because he has sources, I believe, that are calling him in the middle of the night telling him really what's going on this is all purposeful yes the uh attempts by states to stop this

certainly won't happen in arizona won't happen in new mexico uh they're never going to put any kind of a border resistance or California. Texas. Yeah. They're going through the motions, but Eagle pass is not going to stop these people, two mile area there that they're talking about two and a half miles or something, and people have gone down the border and said, look, there's nothing down here where we get, you know, no wall or big, big doors on the wall and that

type of thing. That's my take on, on, uh, Abbott as well. And I've interviewed Michael Yon in the the past i think he is a straight shooter i don't think that the republicans are straight shooters they understand what people are concerned about and they will position themselves and signal that they are doing something about it when in actuality they don't do anything at all about it so it's really up to us and how is this going to definition you just said the definition of a politician that's right that's right well unfortunately the democrats will do some of the stuff that they promised to do this bad stuff people if people go to uh my civil

defense manual.com look at my latest interview i did i did did it with a group that I support. It's a disabled organization. And a guy by the name of Stan Szymanski. He's a brilliant man. He first attracted my attention by some of... He was a financial planner. Some of the articles he wrote about the potential for disruption of our economy attracted my attention years ago.

And Stan and we did a back and forth thing. We call it war gaming the American apocalypse because doom and gloom. Well, I don't care what you want. It's realism. It is going to go down there are so many issues confronting this country that have never collectively been there you'll hear this from anybody with a sound mind there's so many issues affecting this country that i can't possibly see mathematically that one of them doesn't happen and yon says there's a hundred

some thousand plus chinese in he will not disclose his um sources but i believe it's probably patriotic americans in the justice department the c CIA, the Homeland Defense, there are still people in there. I think probably 80% of these organizations don't like what's going on, but the hierarchy and 20% of them are basically pulling all the illegal things that they want to do. So the point being this, if there are that many people inside this country, it's no different than having troops in uniform. He says they're all intelligence, police, or military people.

That's right. The vast majority of them. Again, don't know where he gets his information, but I tend to believe what he says. He doesn't just come out and make stories up. Oh, yeah. what he says he doesn't just come out and make stories up oh yeah and we had a thing a couple of weeks ago i didn't really cover it on the show but um there was a guy who was playing piano in a public area in the uk and there was a group of young chinese that were kind of there in the background and they were talking and everything and they got on his video and then they realized

that they were in the field of view of his video and they confront him and told him he had to delete that and all that kind of stuff. And then he kept the camera rolling and that became a viral video that the fact that they would demand that they have to have anonymity because they're here with the Chinese government and all this, you know, that, that type of thing that is happening all over the place. And we've seen indications of that, that the Chinese are getting involved in universities and other things like that. It's, it's a very deliberate process.

I've, I've had quite a bit of the experience. I come from a color crayon box family. I don't have any Chinese, but I've got Koreans and Vietnamese in my family. They're Orientals. Um, again, you know, that's, I love them or, uh, don't talk to them depending on the way they treat me you know but i get along with most of them and uh it's not based on the shape of eyes or color of skin i've got blacks in my family too point being this uh the chinese are very xenophobic uh they're

it's it amazes me i have a good, highly educated, who told me they were the original capitalists. And I said, what? You're communist China. No, no, no. That's all by the wayside. No matter what Mao Zedong did or anybody else, we're all capitalists at heart. It's in our dna and i was astounded to hear this person tell me that's why they came up with this marriage between capitalism

and this economy they have and the communist party it's because they can't get rid of two things in the chinese the The Chinese secretly worship God. Most of them are Christians. And the second thing is, is they can't get this capitalism out of them. No matter how many times they execute somebody for secretly selling cigarettes on the street or whatever, they all do it. And I was astounded to listen to that. But we have 100,000 of them in our country. I mean, one rifle, you can shoot a hole through the bottom of a transformer.

This was done Medford, uh, California, I believe was the place they did it to, uh, something coordinated a spotter. Two marksman absolutely put a large part of the California electrical grid down. And that was with about three or four shots from my powered rifles. Uh, we have a hundred thousand of them. If only 2,500 of them get out and start doing that as 50 people in every state, I noticed where I live, the power company has started positioning a vehicle outside of their transformer station.

Hmm. That happened for about two or three weeks uh month ago then it just disappeared again so yeah they heard a threat about that or something yeah and the problem is is that there's not a lot that we can do about it we can't get the government to uh protect the border and then even when you look at the government protecting the border uh the concern is are they going to set up some kind of um you know, virtual wall that is going to be a surveillance system? Is that then going to migrate into the rest of the United States? Is the wall going to be used to keep people in?

And when you look at it from just even an economic standpoint, we have this giant welfare magnet pulling people in. That can bankrupt us. So, you know, how do we push back against this you know is it going to be used as a cat's paw to get us to accept a surveillance state to accept a digital id in order to try to bring back some sense of order there's there's a lot of chaos that's being sown but but what do you think is the the key threat right now for america to me the key threat is uh exactly what uh well let's put it this is a key threat are all of these illegals in this country that we don't know anything about we don't know where they are nobody's watching them as far as i know and um that is the key threat. They could bring our infrastructure. You talked earlier about how dependent we are on the digital systems that we have and power.

And one of those could take out both of them. And that is just simply destroying transformer stations and transformers and cell sites and this type of thing. It goes down and everything comes to a standstill. Uh, I can imagine, but I don't want to live through what goes on after that happens. 95% of the people in this country, uh,

got two or three cans of beans in their pantry and that's it. They don't have any food. They don't have any water stored up. And that's the first thing that's going to kill people's lack of water why because i've read stories i've been without water for four days i know what it's like you start going out of your head and i've read uh uh and had people tell me that they knew people that drank motor oil just because it was fluid. Wow. Uh, it's, it's the insanity that takes your, takes over your head.

I was close to that too. I mean, uh, it was. Well, I know there's the tales of people who get, um, you know, shipwrecked, the ship goes down, they're in a lifeboat and, and they're hoping that they can get rescued or whatever. Some of them do, but you know, they, they start against their better judgment. They'll drink seawater, uh, you know, and that's it. That's well, we drank our 5% drip solutions. Did it help us temporarily, but it puts you in a worse state afterwards.

Yeah. But, uh, luckily for us, uh, I was, uh, too stupid to know what I was doing. Luckily for us, we got out of it before too long. But we're in such a fragile state that it actually frightens me. I think the biggest thing is an attack. I think that we don't tell me that these people couldn't go door to door with lists of people you me included judges policemen sheriff uh federal officials and just kill people yeah what's to stop them from doing that i'm seeing things about the chinese coming in i don't want to pick on them especially because there's plenty of

other ones from other countries they're going to shooting ranges and and shooting now part of that is because the orientals are deprived of guns the japanese they come to las vegas uh they'll go to spend four thousand dollars in machine gun range because they don't get to shoot or have any weapons over there but the point being this is that i think the biggest danger we have, immediate danger, is the possibility of a coordinated attack. And everybody's got information on who fits into the conservative side or traditional side, who's a troublemaker like you and I. That is a possibility. I prepare for that type of thing, but the bottom line is, and you need to too, but the bottom line is, uh, I don't think it'd be that so much.

Why should they waste their time doing that? They can take out this system by taking the electrical grid out. And that happens without people shooting holes and transformers. That's right. That happens periodically. And of course it could happen in slow motion you know we're looking at what's happening in mexico city they have they're facing a massive massive water shortage and again it's an urban area so these people don't have any backup system

they don't have any any well that they can draw from or anything they're totally dependent on infrastructure they're one of the most heavily populated cities in the world. And they're looking at not being able to get basic water to people. And that's what this kind of chaos, a government that doesn't have, is incapable or unwilling to provide an infrastructure. And then you pack people together. And this is a hallmark of what is happening at the border with all of these central and South American countries, uh, you know, sending up prisoners, sending up cartels, and I'm sure easily, uh, be very easy for the cartels to, uh, uh, start doing incursions across the border.

They've gotten right up to the border, having shootouts with, um, uh, Mexican federales and that type of thing. So, yeah, they've got some incredible military hardware too. I mean, I've seen pictures of stuff that, I mean, you know where it came from. It came from Afghanistan. Yeah. Most likely there or the Ukraine. Yeah.

There's a lot of corruption going on there, but I think that people don't really understand the water is taken for granted. Water weighs eight pounds per gallon. If you're going to haul five gallons of water, you're hauling 40 pounds. Water is much more difficult to keep from spoiling, so to speak, as bacterial growth, much more difficult to store then and keep long-term than food is, really.

And people, you know, I feel like an insurance salesman sometimes, trying to talk to people about food because they take it so granted, water they take it so granted. It's like an intangible, unseeable insurance policy because not that they can't see this. It's just their mind can't conceive of being without them. Yeah. But, um, and of course, uh, people go to, um, civil defense, uh, manual.com. You got a free chapter there from the book about water, because that is so key and so core that you want people to have that information.

You know, another thing, too, Jack, in just the last week or so, the mainstream media has picked up the case of this Amish farmer, Amos Miller. I don't know if you saw that or not. But he's in a thing with the State Department of Agriculture there. But they really want to shut down individual farms. Thomas Massey has got his prime act, and he's taken this as an advocacy, and it's really resonated with a lot of Republicans, even with a lot of Republican officials at the state level. And so now the mainstream media is pushing back against all this stuff.

It is really vital for them to keep us dependent on them for their food and and so that's a key thing that you talk about uh we talk about our our current food supply and how do we um how do we get this uh garden to a table uh type of food supply uh for our own benefit yeah and it's worse than garden a table uh the the systems they have now uh you go to the grocery store and buy a loaf of bread it's automatically ordering another loaf of bread before you walk out the door so by within probably 12 to 24 hours at the latest uh they've restocked with every loaf of bread that went through their cashier line so if there were 1 000 loaves of bread there's another thousand loaves of bread they're delivered probably by

two o'clock four o'clock in the morning and in the process of this direct from manufacturer to the grocery store there's no reserve anymore it's it's a absolute uh hand-to-mouth system as far as supply they used to have warehouses full of foods and of course they would move those fairly quickly but it it's no longer there so they're they're literally we are we are standing at the end of the water pump and waiting for somebody to crank the handle before we can get our couple. It's the way it is. And it's way that way with food also. It's a,

it's very disturbing to look at it from that side. A lot of people don't want to realize, Hey, we're America. We, we, we've never had anything like third world problems like this. That's because you're

probably geographically more than anything we have never uh really had to face these issues but now the illegals inside this country and the technology that we have saddled ourselves with are threatening to change that defense we had, that geographic defense. It's no longer there. And, of course, you know, the technology has made us dependent on it in so many different ways besides the just-in-time delivery. That was the first thing you and I ever talked about, all these different legs of the supply chain the supply chain we saw that busted significantly

during 2020 after we had talked about it i talked to you first time was way way before um uh 2020 but you know we we saw a bit of what happened with that when we just had the arbitrary closure of so many different things and even even changing the way that the products would be delivered. You know, you're not going to be able to go to your office and eat there in the cafeteria. You can't go there to use the restroom. Those are all closed. So now we got toilet paper that's in a format that we can't get to you even as a consumer. We got food that's in a format we can't get to you as a consumer.

All these sorts of things. So we saw massive amounts of food being destroyed but people couldn't find anything on the shelf it's so easy in this kind of complex system to break it just as we saw with the cell phones and shutting down a lot of truckers because they couldn't get their cell phone to work so it's incredibly uh fragile and i guess you know that that's one of the reasons why your book is so important i think is it's very important for people to start to take some measures anything that they can do from the beginning as you pointed out just to you know getting a few you know occasionally uh buying cans of food and setting them aside because it's going to last for quite a while uh just

they can simply start storing some water yeah water is the first thing that's going to kill people either lack thereof or or drinking something that isn't potable something that's not safe to drink that could be anything water bad water or anything other than that you can get water out of a stream up in the mountains that looks so crystal clear oh my god this is from god this is god's hand is giving me this water and if you drink it you'll be sicker than a dog at the end of the day i've done this been through it i think that the funny thing is we are so abundant here my wife being from zimbabwe africa formerly rhodesia uh she still is amazed to go find a tube of toothpaste because there are 40 50 different types of toothpaste

what kind you want what flavor do you want what consistency you want jelly you want a paste and she's she has never gotten over this she's been in this country 40 years and she is a blown away because she's been back to af Africa and you go to this toothpaste section, there's maybe one tube or there isn't any there or they've got baking soda set in a place to use. It's a mindset that's caused Americans to think that we're invulnerable, we're invincible. We can't have these things happen.

And we've set ourselves up for a fall with all this digitized, uh, infrastructure. So you're talking about a Disneyland mentality that people have that, uh, everything's going to be just, just fine. Right? Yeah. Yeah. Until it isn't.

That's right. And, and, and simple math, uh, being, uh, being in Las Vegas, I'll never forget the guy, Jimmy the Greek. He was an odds maker who was very, very popular. And he made a statement. It was just pretty much a maximum in mathematics now. The further you are from the point of something happening, the more probability you have that it will happen. And we have gone for, what, 70, 80 years? We've never had our food system, which consists in most people's mind of the grocery store.

Now it's prepackaged delivered food or a restaurant. We've never had any of those fail us. That's right. And we've really become kind of uh kind of helpless kind of like you lawyer or something i karen and i went to new zealand 1998 and um and we went on a jet boat ride uh that they had there that's one thing that they kind of developed there because they're shallow streams and stuff but they would take down these canyon walls where there were you know rocks and everything they go really fast and he has oh you're americans well let me explain this to you he says uh this is not this is not a ride at

disneyland he said if we're going towards something and it looks like you're going to hit your head duck because you're going to hit your head it's like wow that's the way the world sees us and i guess really he's kind of right about that because you know we really do believe that everything's going to be just fine we're going to be taken care of everything's been thought of and everything is planned out and that's not the way the world world works you know and you find that out you get the punch in the face yeah i learned i learned this from you i i think a couple of uh interviews ago you made a statement that people driving in the third world uh they don't have any line down the center of the road any dotted line you know they don't have a line in the outside a white one

that tells them hey you're too far to the right or too far to the left or whatever they don't have that type of thing and consequently they're alert for other drivers they don't even have a stop sign i remember driving uh uh in the mountains on an island called roatan and honduras and i had a pickup i rented and i came roaring around the corner they've set rocks up the road washed out so they set rocks up no warning signs nothing i went over the hill and i'm barely missed the ending of the rock. But you brought the point up, which is very valid, that Americans have so much of this drawn out that it's become mindless for us to even drive.

You got a light that tells you to stop. Even if you go through that green light and there's a car from the right coming towards you, most Americans would look to the right and say, look at that damn fool from the right coming towards you, most Americans would look to the right and say, look at that damn fool. He's coming towards me. You know, he's going to T-bone me, you know, instead of putting the brakes on, we've just become way too complacent with all of the, uh, uh, issues that are, are hand delivered

to us and, and, uh, take, take the fear out. And I have a sense of entitlement. I've got the right of way. Oh, you're going to be dead right. You know, pay attention to it, but even to the extent that, you know, now the sense of entitlement extends to the fact, well, um, you better not say anything that offends me. You know, I mean, I'm supposed to be protected from any contingency, even from hearing harmful things, you know, I mean, I'm supposed to be protected from any contingency, even from hearing harmful things, you know, I mean, it's just, we have become so, so pacified, so controlled and

we demand safety over everything else. And yet, uh, it's not safe at all. If you are not aware of your surroundings and if you don't have the ability to be able to provide for yourself, that's why I like to rec, uh, to recommend civil defense manual, because that's, that's a good place for people to start. You've got a lot of different areas where people can start, whether you're talking about food or water,

whether you're talking about defense, whether you're talking about organizing in a community. That's something we need to do even for a political standpoint to start organizing at the local level. People talking about Christian nationalism, I said, no, talk about Christian localism. You know, you need to build from the ground up.

This, this book will save people's lives. I've, uh, I've gotten into a battle in my family. I got a big family. I've got like 55 cousins and, uh, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, all that. Uh, that's why I got rid of my iPhone because the texting was driving me crazy. They all think uncle Jack's a cat's meow well i don't want to i don't want to hear everybody's life story all day so uh i've gotten into a battle in my family and that battle is over freedom of speech and i'm not going to take the liability for telling your listeners this but

I refuse to shut my mouth about things if somebody brings something up I will counter it right there I am not going to let tyranny rule over my family when you've got an obnoxious brother-in-law looking at you like oh my god

you gotta you know it's like you're holding a pair a dead fish up in your fingers you know and it smells like uh terrible you know and and we don't talk about things like that around here well maybe you don't but i do because you guys brought it up yeah you know i i have i've started doing it i get into it with my wife because she's english and she's a person that's used to being reserved and polite and which most people in the world to a degree are that way much more than americans we're pretty outspoken but we're stopping that and i'm going the other way now yeah they want to intimidate you they want to intimidate you and and if you uh you you know

what the you know what they don't want you to say, and you can't self-censor yourself. You know, that's gotten me in a lot of trouble. It's got me in a lot of trouble with all the social media, the YouTube and all the rest of these people. Because I'm not going to self-censor. If I'm going to talk about the vaccines, I'm not going to use a euphemism. You know, I'm just going to tell you what this thing is. The vaccine is going to do this and that to you. I'm not going to, you knowphemism. You know, I'm just going to tell you what this thing is. The vaccine is going to do this and that to you. I'm not going to, you know, dance around the topic like that.

And so as a result, you get banned for doing that. But, you know, that to me, that is the worst thing that we can do is what Solzhenitsyn was saying. You know, don't live by lies, even if they're going to, you know, pressure you on this you know you got to speak the truth as you know it and and not um uh you know deliberately live by a lie in order to please other people and i think right now where we are is with the pronouns you know i'm in the program so how ridiculous is that but that's a good example i started to support an organization at one point until i got woke up i don't know why i didn't see this in the first email email but the director uh sent me i took this personal lunch i was interested in helping these young kids that were being bullied at school because i was terribly bullied in school

a lot of people oh yeah but i started saying to her, she, he, they, it pronouns, and I just cut it off right there. I couldn't understand why this person was using this refuge type thing, and I think they're doing more. They're trying to, I think, indoctrinate these kids. Oh, yeah. You don't know your sexuality. That's right. They want to confuse it yeah we were all bullied in school but now the kids are are bullied and gaslit you know

yeah and groomed you know that's that's the word they just added that to it and they're still being bullied over the pronouns and other things like that just in a different way and by a different group of people the people at the top are bullying them. Right. Right. Yeah. My, uh, my, most of the people I graduated with haven't been more than 500 miles from home. I've been all over the world and I've, I'll never regret whatever they think they have and what I've had and seen through my eyes and heard and felt, uh, going around the world, but, uh, uh going let me go back to one thing you're talking about that farmer that amish farmer in uh amos miller pennsylvania yeah i mean what is that

raw milk is going to maybe kill somebody yeah you know the the government has a monopoly on death they can give you a vaccine and try to force you to take it and well we can kill you with something that wasn't even tested but boy you can't have raw milk yeah i come from a farm that we milked a lot of cows i i don't know i'm 77 i think i'm pretty healthy i don't know i might be dead tomorrow but bottom line is uh i drank raw milk all the time. And what's bad about it? I don't know. But somebody conjured this up. And government, if they're there, they need to control.

They don't feel like they're complete. And the day has when the sun goes down, if they haven't gone in and rousted somebody and told somebody the way it is, they't feel like uh they had a productive day and that's may sound a little bit uh opinionated but it is my opinion of government at least in other countries governments usually stay away from you you either bribe them they're all taking money under the counter and and i'll admit i've done it I've gotten a friend out of getting arrested by the Thai police one time. He was a lieutenant colonel. And I went over and gave, shook hands, money with the lieutenant and the tourist police and said, look, I'll take him home.

He didn't really mean anything by that. I took him home, told him to stay inside and shut your mouth because he was criticizing the king of Thailand. And that can get you in some serious trouble. I've seen an Australian about 6'5 with about 15 or 20 ties beating the ever-living Daleks out of him just because he made a smart remark and shouldn't have. And you just learn to keep your mouth shut about the King. It was a great guy. I mean,

he took care of that country. So I don't, I'm not advocating that type of government, but he did what he needed to do for his people. And you keep your mouth shut about it. You're in there. Kind of just like if somebody comes in my living room, don't start telling me how ugly my artwork looks,

you know, even though i drew it and you know but uh anyway uh i just think it's incredible that they they did what they did with this with this farmer and of course with your experience and and so many different places and of course uh you have uh you've seen communism in action, and of course, ChatGPT and Google, Jim and I say you can't criticize communism. That's not allowed, but we know what it really is, and you've experienced it firsthand. You mentioned an encounter that you had with somebody from Cambodia, Phnom Penh. Talk a little bit about that.

Well, I went all through Southeast Asia. I don't know how long I stayed there, but when you go to these countries, obviously, if you've got the money, you stay in a nice place. I stayed in probably the nicest hotel. I think it was seven or eight stories high in Phnom Penh. And I was sitting there one evening. I didn't drink. I don't drink uh one evening I didn't drink I don't drink anymore but I didn't drink any alcohol I was having a cup of tea and I'm looking across the Mekong river which is

probably a mile and a half wide there and I'm astounded it comes out of Vietnam and wanders up into Cambodia I think in the Laos And I'm sitting there looking at it. It was so peaceful. The people were so extremely nice. I had to think back to when the Khmer Rouge took over in 1976. In three years, the Khmer Rouge communists killed, if anybody can believe this, 1.7 million people, one-third of their population.

Wow. And it was crazy because they were trying to get rid of anyone educated. So if you wore a pair of glasses and you were taken as being an educated person because most people over there, now, if somebody had bad eyesight in an organization or somebody got them glasses a person could have no education but they took these people out and the swamp areas north of uh phnom penh and it was a place called the killing fields it was a huge long swamp area and they wouldn't put a bullet in the back of your head they were getting rid of all

the intellectuals everybody and they were getting it down to the peasants and it was going to be a totally farming country there was going to be no attorney's offices none of this they did a pretty good job 1.7 million people were killed by uh executioners putting a plastic bag over their head suffocating them to death. Down to kids that were three months old. Where do you find this stuff? You can go to a place called Toll Slang. It was a school. They tortured

to death 17,000 people in there. Who were their jailers? Most of them were young 12, 13, 14-year-old kids. People were killed there, but the majority of them. And I'm sitting there, and I can't believe it. And I have this exceptionally nice waiter, and I asked the guy,

what's Phnom Penh stand for? And he says, it means the city of four faces. And I thought, well well that's pretty that's pretty uh uh that's pretty much justly represents uh what happens with humanity people don't think anything like that can happen in your society those people went from being that pleasant person to the evil faces went on and the executions came out and it didn't stop until they killed one third of their population. That'd be like us killing off 110 million Americans. And it devastated the country. It set them so far back back but you go over there now and people in vietnam don't remember anything almost uh most of them are in their 30s and 40s

and uh i was just totally astounded how that could happen and i've seen this other places and we think we're immune from this i hope it never comes but people can't put it out of their mind. Food, store food, store water, buy yourself a shotgun and 500 rounds of shotgun shell, double odd buck and some slug. And I'm not, I used to say, go get yourself something for protection. But some people think protection is having pepper spray that's not going to do you any good you know you unfortunately if it comes down to defending yourself the most efficient item is is a firearm and you need to have everybody in your family

know how to ride it but you need water you need food and medicines and you can go on and on what you need to do is get together with your neighbors know who in the hell is around you because uh you if things go bad are going to need other people to help defend your area to keep some civility to keep people from getting harmed by gangs and whatnot which is going to be the first threat but yeah yeah that's right. That's what I like about your book. It talks about the psychology of getting together in a group. You know, things to do that are good,

things to do that are not good. And that is very important, especially now that the government has started focusing on, well, if you've got a group of people and they've got rifles, they're militia and they're bad and they're a threat to us and they're sovereign citizens or whatever labels they want to hang on people like that.

Uh, it's very important to realize about that. I get around that in the book and I specifically go in to the definition of Malaysia and people are forming their, their, what they're called. I call neighborhood guardians. That's right. For the defense only of their area and it it blows me away how uh some some of the people that think they're traditional now and conservative have been so propagandized over the years in uh oh you can't do that oh that that's against the law you know well

not really because i sat in a police board i got a pretty good idea which obstruction of traffic and obstruction of law enforcement and that type of thing let me tell you something if things go sideways which they will if they go sideways people are going to end up in their neighborhoods they control their area law enforcement is going to love them one less area to go in and deal with yeah oh yeah that's right and that's the other side of this you know it's um i i interviewed a long time ago i she van fleet um and uh tucker just interviewed her talking about her book mouths america she said i went through all this stuff you call woke now she said that struggle sessions and the you know the self-denouncement and all

this other kind of stuff that they're now doing in universities and teaching people on that she said that was all done you know when um when she's warning Americans what this looks like. And it's true. All the stuff you talked about with Cambodia, that was what Mao was doing with his cultural revolution. He was executing intellectuals. He wanted everybody to be in agriculture, all that type of thing. And so we see that. But then on the other side, one of the things that I'm concerned about, of course, is all the talk when we see it.

CPAC, all these people. Well, if we lose the election, looks like it's a civil war. Everybody seems like on both sides of this are being primed to come after each other. And we're at a time, you know, like about every 80 years, you know, everybody gets antsy and they change all the institutions, have a big financial crisis. But everybody is is primed to um come after other people it seems like uh the way this country is being divided uh very very concerning to me that is um as concerning as what is happening at the border to me this uh techno i i blame most of this uh attitude is polarization on the technology and one of the worst uh violators is facebook yep

people have learned to say things over a computer that they wouldn't say in front of you to your face because you would punch their snout through the back of their skull that's right you know uh to put it crudely people would not put up with his face to say so what they do is they read this they're angry and it builds a pressure up in them yes just just like it does kids when you have a zero tolerance policy my my football coach our gym coach used to take us to the wrestling room and we would have what we call murder brawl and it would be kids in a class all of us kids in the class he divided them into two halves and one of these and it's padded in this room and he threw a soccer ball out there and the point was to get the ball and touch the wall on the opposite end and of

course while everybody's uh looking for the ball there's usually three or four guys over there punching it out because they don't like each other, you know, and they get it out of their system. We didn't bring firearms to school and shoot each other. So it's like the gun freeze on this type of zero tolerance. It's doing the opposite of what it should do. That's right. And you know, I'll never be able to argue that with the teachers in my

family because, uh, they got PhDs. They can't tie their shoes, but they got PhDs. It's piled higher and deeper. Yeah, that's the key thing. You know, the technology is isolating us from each other, from human contact, doing that so they can monitor and surveil everything that we do. But as you point out, the other side of that that comes along

with this isolation is that when we do interact with other people, we don't see them as human and so it builds up this uh this animosity because we're at a distance and and it's just uh i don't know it just seems like everything that is being done to us now is being done to heighten division to sow chaos and uh whether it's the border or whether it's what is happening inside the border it seems like it is all compounding whether it's the border or whether it's what is happening inside the border it seems like it is all compounding well it's been great talking to you and and again i love your book civil defense manual had a guy who uh who picked it up he said that is worth a thousand dollars you know so he said i i love the information that's in there you sell it as as a

pair but i would encourage people to go to the website, civildefensemanual.com. You've got interviews there. You've got articles that are there. You've got excerpts from the manual that are there. A great resource. People always say, well, you know, what can I do about this? We need to be able to take action. We need to be able to do this as individuals and as a community. That is the key thing.

And you've got a lot of answers in that book. And you've got a lot of experts who have who have chimed in on that that you've created great resources they're always great talking to you jack good to talk to you david take care thank you thank you very much well that's it for the program today folks thank you so much for joining us and i hope that you learned something and i hope that you've got some resources somewhere that you're going to depend on. Again, CivilDefenseManual.com is a great one and a great book. And you'll see that if you take a look.

I think he's also got a free chapter there besides the water. He's got another one on nuclear war, that type of thing. And that's a real eye-opener from somebody who has a lot of training, a lot of experience, and also expertise in that area. Thank you for joining us. Have a good day.
