As the clock strikes 13, it's Tuesday, the 27th of June, Year of Our Lord 2023. Well, today we're going to begin with the election.

I keep having people ask me who I'm going to endorse, and so I'm going to make an endorsement today. We're going to talk about that. We're going to talk about the District of Corruption. And, of course, we're going to talk about something that you can do, that you actually have control over. Homeschooling. I had a wonderful reply to a tweet that I put out from a family who left Sweden to homeschool their child in America. So we're going to talk about that. The Bank of International Settlement is going head to head with crypto, of course. But the interesting thing is what BlackRock is doing. Is BlackRock going into competition with the Bank of International Settlements? Are they trying to get into what I would call paper Bitcoin?

They want an ETF for Bitcoin so you don't actually own Bitcoin. You trade on derivatives of Bitcoin. While the central banks are telling everybody it's too speculative, you shouldn't get involved with it. We'll be right back. Well, let me begin with the election. I had Larry write an email to me, and he said, what option, given the understanding that all U.S. elections are rigged, what option would you have chosen in 2016 and 2020?

Well, I can answer that question easily. I chose none of the above for 2020. Did not vote. I wasn't going to be staying in Texas. And so local elections didn't mean anything to me. There wasn't any way I was going to vote for Trump or Biden or for even the libertarian candidate. It was the third choice on there. They'd all been supportive of the lockdown.

As far as I'm concerned, that's it. Anybody who supported the lockdown, you know, you can look at DeSantis. He was a last in and the first out. He did more to oppose it than anybody else did. I'm not happy about what he did not do, but give him credit for what he did do. And he's about the only one who said it was a big mistake. But, you know, still mistakes are being propagated with that. That's not a good thing. So in 2016, I voted like Julian Assange would have voted if he had been an American citizen. He said, look, we know that Hillary Clinton is a warmonger and a criminal. We don't know that about Trump. So, you know, go with him as opposed to Hillary Clinton. Now we know that Trump is all of the above.

He went to war with us. He went to war with us. He went to war with the Constitution. He sided with the globalists after portraying himself, and all the media helped him to do it, to portray himself as America first, as make America great again. He tried to make America into China,

following exactly what they did, locking people up, locking healthy people up, quarantining healthy people. You know, China may have the legal system where they can do whatever they want, but you don't, Trump. And so you disqualified yourself. You've already shown that you have nothing but contempt for the oath of office. So if it was a choice between Donald Trump and Chairman Mao, I wouldn't vote. And if I had to vote for somebody, I'd vote for Mao before I would vote for Donald Trump. Why?

Because at least with Mao, you know what you're getting and you're going to be on guard with it. And that's my big concern about Trump. And I think beside the election, Trump is there this time. He was there in the first term, 2017 to 21, or you want to say 16 to 20. His first term was to establish globalism and to lay out the lockdown rules, universal basic income. We can shut you down. There's no constitution here. He was there to normalize no constitution here he was there to normalize that what he's there for this time is to create a civil war they have to have a war

they're coming up to 2030 they've got to have their new system in place they've got to tear down our country and they're going to use trump in his civil war whether he wins or loses it's going to push a civil war that That's what he's there for. That's why they're charging him. Always in the past, we've had presidents, people knew they were criminals, they were corrupt, they were grifting, they were stealing, they never did anything about it. They're coming after him for this, for that reason. And whether he knows it or not, he's going to be used for civil war. So my goal is to tell you the good and the bad about these people, not to make endorsements. So, yeah, I didn't tell you the truth when I said I'm going to endorse somebody.

I'm going to endorse your local sheriff if you can find one that's running good. That's who I'm going to endorse for. Go to them. Look, the purpose of government, what is the purpose of government? To protect our God-given rights. And if the government is attacking those rights, it is our right and our duty to alter or to abolish that government, which means that we can nullify it if we've got good people at the local level. That's how you alter or abolish the federal government. You don't participate in this pride parade that we call a presidential election.

And that's what it is. It's a pride parade for these egotistical narcissists out there. That kind of pride. Of course, you know, they also pull in the other type as well. Another reason not to vote for them. But look, you know, if you think that elections were honest, that's fine. But I'm not going to become a partisan cheerleader for anybody. And here's the point.

You don't want to become a supporter of these guys. You want to look at them and you're going to say, well, all right, this guy's got a lot of character flaws. He's wrong on a lot of issues but i think maybe i can handle the direction that he's coming at me better than i can from this other guy that's the kind of determination you ought to make when you flip the thing if you go participate in the process you ought to look at it and say this guy is maybe more manageable in the evil ways and the things that he's going to do than the other guy. Don't become a supporter of anybody. Do a commercial with Treebeard.

I'm not altogether on anybody's side because nobody is on my side. That's the whole point. You got to understand they're not on your side. And if you vote for them, understand that, you know, this person's got flaws. This is, you know, uh, Oh, they're not Hillary Clinton. So we'll take a look at this, but don't ever become a supporter. That's a very dangerous thing because if you buy into them and become a supporter, a donor, all this other kind of stuff, now you've bought into it. And now if you're going to even subconsciously pull back against any criticism of anything that person might do, that's wrong. I have to, that's one of the reasons I have to do that as a journalist to maintain my distance and objectivity. I don't want to become a cheerleader for these people, but you don't want to do that

either. You've also got a voice on social media. Don't become a cheerleader for these people, but you don't want to do that either. You've also got a voice on social media. Don't become a cheerleader for anybody. Focus on principles. And if you focus on principles and you say, well, this guy is less dangerous than that one, but I'm not supporting either one of them. Then you can easily resist them when they do bad things. But if you buy into it, well, I really like Trump in this. I really liked to Santa's.

This guy's great. Or I like RFK jr. Then, you know, when they stab you in the back or when they do something that is just horrific, then it's going to be more difficult for you to oppose them. And so that's my thing.

He goes on to say, based on our current rigged voting system, we have only two realistic choices to cast a vote. Your constant attack on Trump for everything that's been wrong in the world really baffles me. Well, it's because Trump's not right about anything. About anything. And the reason I attack Trump constantly is because people have bought into him as a person. They're not supporting Trump because they like his vaccines.

They hate his vaccines. They don't support Trump because they like the lockdown. They hate the lockdown. They lie to themselves and other people and say, Trump didn't do the vaccine. You know, you heard Alex Jones saying, oh, well, you know, the really bad vaccines coming from, um, from, uh, uh, Bill Gates. And I've seen people write that, you know, Trump did this warp speed thing. And that was a good thing because he rushed his vaccine out there before Gates could get

his really bad vaccine. You understand this thing's been in the works for years before they ever rolled this out, just like the lockdown and all the rest of the stuff was in the works and practice for 20 years before they ever rolled it out. All of it, the lockdown till you get the vaccine, the legal structures, the model legislation for the states to do what they did, all of that had been prepared for two decades on the political side, the legal side.

And the vaccine had been prepared for quite a while before that as well, working on patenting it and the methods to do it and all the rest of this stuff. So you understand that he didn't rush anything. He didn't give us a different vaccine than the people wanted. He didn't give us a different lockdown than the globalists wanted. He gave us exactly what they wanted. And so you've got to be able to distance yourself from Trump. And I'm talking to a conservative audience here.

People on the left aren't going to listen to me because they hate where I am on every other issue. But if you agree with me and we agree on these issues, then why would anybody support Trump? Why wouldn't you oppose him with everything? Because he's in line now to win this. He's about two to one over DeSantis, the next closest one. There's not even any other competition. And we need to understand that he's not only not our savior, but he's a traitor. He's Benedict Donald. And that's why I've talked about

him from the very beginning. I knew how he had betrayed people, lied to them, stolen money from them for the January 6th thing, then abandoned them, did nothing to protect them legally from what was going to be coming. And I was talking about that. In January of 2021, I got fired because I posed Stop the Steal, what Alex was doing in terms of the grift, and pushing people into January the 6th. And everybody was accusing me at the time, oh, it's just sour grapes and this stuff. No, I chose to oppose this. That's why I got fired, but I chose to do that.

I knew that I could toe the line with this stuff and stay there, but I chose to tell people the truth and tell them to stay away that it was a trap. And not just a trap for the people who showed up on January the 6th, a trap for everybody who was involved in conservative causes would be labeled as domestic extremists. And you see that now, even people showing up to the school board meetings are now compared to January 6th people. It was all a setup. He lied people into that. And so, as I was opposing it, everybody said, oh, this is just a bunch of sour grapes.

No, it wasn't. Why don't you just leave Trump alone? He's not president anymore. I said, he's coming back. He's not done. I said that immediately. I said, this guy is not finished. He's going to come back.

And I had to talk about how he betrayed us because everybody still loves him and they love him even more as they charge him with indictments. And so, you know, you've got, uh, Alex is still out there, uh, cheering Trump on. Well, they're going to kill him. You know, he, he's a, he went to the faith and freedom conference this weekend, Trump did. And he said, um, you know, I'm saving you from them, that type of thing. Portraying himself as a savior. Laying his life down for other people.

And then that same night, I now see articles being written about it. Alex Jones says, well, you know, Trump is, he's out there in opposing. He's going to lay down his life. He's going to be assassinated. They're going to get him somehow. I just know what I can just feel it. That type of thing. Yeah.

He's not only they go to the Christians at the faith and freedom conference and they portray Trump as a suffering Messiah. Who's going to lay his life down. I am absolutely sick of these people. And that's why I talk about Trump all the time. And I'll continue to talk about him because we've got to somehow figure out what's going on. And there's a massive delusion, a derangement syndrome of the MAGA people. Everybody else sees what Trump is.

They don't. And they tell everybody else that they have Trump derangement syndrome. They are the ones who are deranged. Major derangement going on. Well, when we talk about votes, I thought it was interesting in elections. I thought it was interesting that in Guatemala, they just had a and the top vote-getter was null. Null. That meant that people did not vote or they messed up their ballot somehow, but they did it. If you have that being the top vote-getter, they did that deliberately.

The Guatemala election law defines a null vote as any ballot where the voter's intention cannot be clearly determined, it was erroneously marked, such as marking more than one candidate and or party in a single-choice election, or when the ballot contains modifications, expressions, signs, or figures foreign to the process. I wonder what people put on that ballot when they didn't like the people that they'd be given as choices. What do you think? Oh, well, I think this person chose not to vote. You know, it's either turning a messed up ballot and they counted as a null. All the time I was in the Libertarian Party, we always had as part of the platform, the fact that we ought to

have in every election, an option called none of the above, NODA, if you want to call that but none of the above and so if you don't like uh how the political parties and how the system and how the mainstream media have funneled everybody out for oh well we got to choose between uh you know chairman mao and donald trump how about this none of the above and in a none of the above election if None of the above. And in a none of the above election, if none of the above wins, then you have another election, but nobody that was on that first election is allowed to run for that office. You disqualified all of them. All right, come up with another slate of candidates from everybody. I like that system. Unfortunately, we don't have that system.

No candidate got the 50% plus one vote to win the first round. The biggest vote getter was null. And the third place was a party called Let's Go for a Different Guatemala. And it was the Vamos Party. I think that's what we want to do. We want a vamos. You want to get out of this system and understand how corrupt this is and how corrupt these individuals are. Understand they're not on your side.

Take a look at what you can do. As a matter of fact, Caitlin Johnstone, 15 questions that are more useful than quote, what presidential candidate should Americans vote for? 15 things to think about. And Caitlin says, why is it that we never talk about? And she lists a lot of issues that are important to her. Caitlin Johnstone is coming from the left. I agree with her on a lot of different issues, especially the anti-war position. But she's coming from the left. There's most of the issues that are her priorities here. I would not agree with them. And yet, we can both agree that the election system is not working and there's a better way to look at it. So she says, I really don't have anything to say about who Americans should vote for. She's from Australia. Other than to repeat what I've said already about the fact that

you can't vote your way out of a mess that you didn't vote your way into. Think about that. Now that's something to think about. You can't vote your way out of a mess that you didn't vote your way into. But what I can do instead is to offer my American friends some questions to ask that would probably be much more helpful for them and their nation than the question, which presidential candidate should we vote for? And she says, you know, we've got all these pressing issues. And her issues are not my issues, except for war. And I have a, you know, she says, for example, plutocratic influence, privatization, globalization,

ecocidal capitalism, all this kind of stuff. Why are those not on the ballot? You know, she's a leftist. But listen to her questions that she asks. They're good rhetorical questions. Why does nothing change no matter who we vote for? Why does U.S. foreign policy always continue along the same trajectory, regardless of the president's party or of the platform? By the way, she doesn't mention what happened in 2020, which I would say, why, regardless of country, and regardless of the president's party, and regardless of the platform or their stated principles, why did everybody do the same thing in 2020? Why did everybody do the same thing in

every country? You smell a rat? Does that give you a clue as to who's running this? She focuses on the war aspect, the foreign policy, and things like that. But, of course, there's a global agenda now. And if you ask yourself, why did President Trump's policies not differ significantly from Emmanuel Macron? Why did they not differ significantly from trudeau and again the stuff that we look at with macron and trudeau primarily the things that they did in 2021 i'm not convinced that trump would not have done those he would have done it in a different way he would have done it through corporations he would have bribed people instead of blackmailing them, which is what Biden did.

But that's a distinction without a difference as far as I'm concerned. Anyway, she says, what keeps our voting population split right down the middle into two political factions of equal size, neither size ever gaining enough of a majority to democratically change society in any meaningful way? Why does a stalemate described above always seem to benefit the rich and the powerful and the warmongers? Why is it that most consequential U.S. government policies are never on the ballot? And what kind of things

would that be? Well, of course, we've all suffered through this medical martial law. Why don't we have anything on the ballot to stop that? Why don't we have any candidates we want to talk about that and again we have DeSantis who did a little bit of that and he did more than anybody else he with a lockdown he pulled it back sooner and he did measures in Florida to make sure that corporations could not punish people exclude people who had not been vaccinated but it's just a little bit and he's the only one. Why can't we really nail this thing down and reaffirm the Constitution in some way?

Because the Constitution was just shoved to the side. That's why I call it medical martial law. The Constitution was suspended, and now they say that they have those capabilities forever. Why doesn't anybody want to talk about reforming bureaucratic rule where we have not only taxation without representation, but we have regulation without representation? Why doesn't anybody want to do anything about that? Why doesn't anybody ever even identify that as an issue? She goes on to say, who then is really calling the shots in this

country? Could it be that everything that we've been told about our country and our government and our political processes and our world is untrue? If so, what are the implications about the people who have been lying to us about that? In schools, in our media, what about that? What forces would be responsible for keeping all of these lies flowing throughout our society? What might keep an ostensibly free press spinning more or less the same lies throughout the Western world day after day, year after year, generation after generation? Is it possible that our entire electoral system is a sham designed to give the public the

illusion of control, and if it's there as the illusion of control, and if there are other things that we could do besides the election that could have a positive outcome, is the whole purpose of the election to divert us from the things that we could do that would make a difference? In other words, do they want to focus us on the presidential election so we don't pay attention to what's going on in state and local government, especially the local government?

Is that what this is for? To distract us? Could it be that those other means of forcing change are precisely what this charade of casting pretend votes and fake presidential elections, is that what it's meant to divert us from? Those local solutions? And fixing ourselves, our family, our community, and looking at local government, is that what the presidential election is really for? Should we perhaps spend less energy bickering about who should get sworn into the White House a year and a half from now,

a year and a half from now, and more energy examining other possible avenues towards advancing meaningful change? And so I will continue to talk about their policies because their national policies do have consequences and we need to understand what they're going to do. If you understand that Biden is going to be coming after the pistol brace, and of course, that was obvious that that was going to happen for quite some time. As a matter of fact, Trump wanted to come after the pistol brace back in 2019. And after he did the bump stock, he started pushing that,

but he got pushed back on the pistol brace from the NRA and other people, even though he didn't get it on the bump stock. And he did the bump stock with executive order. First time that ever been done. He set a new precedent for that, but then he tried to do it with a pistol brace. And in the period between the election and the inauguration and that transition period,

when he was trying to get money from people and support from people, he dropped the pistol brace executive order. But you knew that it was coming back. So if you're paying attention to what's going on at the national level, as fortunately the legislators here, the state legislators here in Tennessee were paying attention, then they specifically said, you're not going to ban pistol braces in Tennessee. And then they also set up legislation to say, uh, you're not going.

If, if you've got something coming out of Washington that conflicts with our Tennessee law and they just pass the law to say, well, you're not gonna, uh, pistol braces are legal here. So now if Biden or Trump, uh, wants to come after pistol braces, guess what? You can't do it here. And we're not going to allow that to happen. And we're not going to cooperate with that. Nullification and non-cooption are real things.

Nullification is what everybody did to marijuana, right? Marijuana legalization. We're talking about medical or recreational. That is nullification at work. And so we know what that looks like, and we know that it works. And we know that nullification kept even reefer madness Jeff Sessions,

Trump's first attorney general, kept him at bay. It just worried him to death that marijuana was out there and legal for people. That was a key issue for him. I mean, it wasn't like, oh, well, I got better things to do. No, he was really upset about that. But he couldn't do a thing about it. Because if he would have pushed his hand, it would have shown what a complete fraud the entire war on drugs was. Now, there was no legal justification for that,

as there is typically no legal justification for anything that the federal government does. And so it is quite easy to nullify it and to be on the right side of the Constitution. That's what the Tenth Amendment is about. That's what the doctrine of the lesser magistrate is about. That's why I had Matt Trujillo on to talk about that again. Great book, very small, a lot of information in it. So that's what we need to be focused on. If you pay attention to what is happening at the federal level, then you know how to make precautions with either state or with local or even with

yourself. What are you going to do to prepare for your family's future? That's what we need to be focusing on. Not hanging on every word about Trump and Biden and all the rest of this stuff. A year and a half out. Spend this year and a half primarily preparing for what these guys are likely going to do. Now, having said that, I am going to talk when we come back from the break. I am going to talk about some of the things that are happening in Washington because, again,

we need to keep an eye on these people. You know, you need to know what your enemy is capable of doing. You need to know what their priorities are. You need to know what your enemy is capable of doing. You need to know what their priorities are. You need to know what their plan of attack is. And you need to think of these people in Washington, regardless of political party, regardless of whether they're a congressman, a senator, or the president, you need to think of them as your opponent.

They are enemies of the Constitution. And I would only make that exception in one particular case, Thomas Massey. I think he's the only one that is not an enemy of the Constitution. And I would only make that exception in one particular case, Thomas Massey. I think he's the only one that is not an enemy of the Constitution. Other than that, I think they all are. We'll be right back. Plant the seed in our homeland, boys. Let it grow where all can see. Feed it with our devotion, boys.

Call it the Liberty Tree. It's a tall old tree and a strong old tree. And we are the sons, yes, we are the sons, the sons of liberty. © BF-WATCH TV 2021 Liberty, it's your move. You're listening to The David Knight Show. As a matter of fact, in the third hour, we're going to The David Knight Show. on the experience of a lot of people who had expertise in different areas. Today, we're going to talk a little bit about his chapter on what to do with a nuclear attack since Lindsey Graham is so eager to have one. And since you look at the coup that they engineered against Biden, we'll talk more about that as well coming up.

But let's just take a quick look at the Machiavellian schemes of the politicians that are running for political office. Biden is focusing on, he's going to make this a key part of his Bidenomics. Oh, the economy is doing so great under Biden, right? What is Bidenomics? You know, Reaganomics was cutting taxes. But they didn't like it. They said, oh, you're doing trickle down. That's going down from the top down. What is Bidenomics? Reaganomics was cutting taxes. But they didn't like it. They said, oh, you're doing trickle down.

That's going down from the top down. Biden, on the other hand, with Bidenomics, his idea is to raise taxes for everybody, especially the middle class. And he wants to know if you get even $600. And he wants to grow the IRS to be seven times bigger than it is right now. And so his program is prosperity through taxation and spending. Typical Democrat. $40 billion he's going to spend on high-speed internet.

Why is he going to do that? Do any of you want high-speed internet from him? Yeah, of course we all want higher-speed internet. But do you understand that the real purpose of this is surveillance? They've got to have surveillance. They can't have these pockets where they can't monitor real time everything that you're doing. That's what's really behind this. That's why this is a top priority for both Biden and for Trump. Remember how Trump pushed 5G? We don't care about the surveillance issues that they admit

because they're so paranoid that China would supply the equipment because they know that it is about a big brother surveillance panopticon. But there's also health issues, and they don't care about that either. So do you want this? Did anybody vote for this? Was this on the ballot for the last election? Spend $40 billion on providing internet for people to providing the substrate for their internet of things. And you are one of the things that they want to track. Uh, no, it wasn't even

an issue then. Does the constitution allow the government to do this? Right. Um, you can have internet and people have been providing internet private businesses so why is the federal government going to go into competition with private businesses and provide this internet on its own at the cost of 40 billion dollars well because it is necessary for their slave society uh He said all residents and small businesses will be connected to Internet by 2030. See, all part of the 2030 reset. We'll all be enslaved by then. We'll all be surveilled and controlled.

He says Internet access is just as important as electricity or water or other basic services. And all of those things will be used as means of control. And, um, think about you become dependent upon the internet. They can use that to control you. They completely shut down society,

but they need that internet there to watch you. They need the internet there for CBDC and all the rest of this stuff. If Reaganomics was based on the idea that you cut taxes for the wealthiest corporations, wealthiest people in society, and then at some point the remnants of that will trickle down to the middle class and the working class, Bidenomics is exactly the opposite. We want to grow the economy by growing the middle class. No, his focus is on the middle class. His focus is on an army of IRS agents to come after the middle class. Now, Biden is all about the middle class, isn't he? And again, 5G is something that they need to have for all types of things,

like self-driving cars and all the rest of this stuff. By the way, I want to show you what happened when you combine the core values of the Biden administration, LGBT, at a pride parade in San Francisco. You combine the pride parade in San Francisco with the self-driving Google cars. I'm going to show you what happens when you mix those two things together. But before I do, real quickly, before I forget about it, if you like the stream, please like the stream. Please do things wherever you watch this, wherever you about it. If you like the stream, uh, please like the stream, uh, please do things wherever you watch this, wherever you download it.

If you get it from iTunes, if you get it from Deezer, wherever you get it, uh, please like it so that we can increase the visibility of this program. That doesn't cost you anything, but just a little bit of time. Uh, if you want to leave a nice review,

that'd be great too. Now you can do that at, um, you know, iTunes, any other place you can leave a, uh, uh, you know, one to five star review, hopefully a five-star review, uh, and, uh, tell people why you like the show, recommend the show to other people that would help us a great deal. Uh, and, uh, if you want to know the trends that are coming, I don't forget that Gerald Slenty, uh, will give you 10% off of trends journal at trendsjournal.com. If you use the code night and he sees these trends coming as well, we're going

to talk about money coming up and what happened in Russia when it looked like a civil war was coming. Uh, yeah, everybody started rushing for cash surprisingly. Well, you want to have the cash that's real cash. And, uh, so if you want to have the cash that's real cash. And so if you want to prepare locally for that and prepare individually for that, Tony Arderman has set up davidknight.gold, and that lets him know when you go to Wise Wolf Gold that you came from this program. But it's always a good idea to think about that angle of preparation as well, gold and silver. And you can get that from Tony, a great person to deal with, always been a supporter of this program. Let's talk a little bit about what it looks like when you combine the pride parade with self-driving cars.

And I want to thank Jean who sent this. Jean or Jeannie, I'm not sure how she pronounces her name, the way she spells it. But this was a situation where we had a couple of Google cars, they call them Waymo, and they couldn't navigate the street once these barriers were put up for the pride parade. And so you had two different intersections that were blocked by two different Waymo cars and created a tremendous bottleneck.

And I guess we could say Waymo becomes no way, no way to get out of there. It just locked up complete gridlock, which is a couple of these self-driving cars, nobody even in them. Here's a local report. On a day when there was terrible traffic in downtown San Francisco, due to the Pride Parade and Giants game, two self-driving cars didn't help.

In a show and tell, ABC7 News reporter J.R. Stone explains how the robo-taxis apparently didn't know how to navigate around blocked streets. Bumper to bumper traffic in the hours after San Francisco's Pride Parade. But look closely. That is a Waymo self-driving car stalled out in the intersection of 3rd and Howard on 7th. It didn't stall out. 3 p.m. It freaked out. It looks like traffic enforcement is talking to someone inside, but there's no one there which was evident when I walked up to the car. It definitely contributed to

the traffic downtown. But Jose Formoso who is a reporter for the Oakland side is not referring to this video that I recorded at 3rd and Howard. He's referring to a second stalled Waymo at 2nd and Howard also after the parade. A driverless Waymo car also stalled in that intersection. Look at all the graffiti on the car. Trying to go towards Market Street. We overheard a police woman explain that she was surprised and she actually peered into the car and she said, nobody's in there.

Those with the SFMTA say the number of reported incidents with not only Waymo, but Cruise almost tripled in March and April compared to the two prior months. They're not getting better? California Public Utilities Commission to allow an incremental expansion of self-driving services. We need more of them. Not 24-hour service expansion across the city. The CPUC is set to vote on the issue Thursday. Last week, San Francisco Fire Chief Janine Nicholson described the problems the department is having with the

self-driving vehicles, saying they are getting at least one call a day about the vehicle stalling out or driving where they aren't supposed to go. They have driven into shooting scenes and fire scenes and just been a menace. This self-driving car at 3rd and Howard was given a $108 ticket and eventually drove off 15 to 20 minutes later, according to those here. We did reach out to Waymo but did not receive a response. Last week they they gave a statement to the LA Times saying, in part, safety is the heart of its mission. The fire chief, though, is concerned. It's only a matter of time before something really, really catastrophic happens.

J.R. Stone, ABC7 News. Does that give you kind of an insight as to why that guy got involved in road rage and rear-ended the thing and then kept, there was a human driver in that one. They took over the wheel and it's going to go back to home base. And the guy kept rear entering rear ending him. I called the cops and had the guy arrested. Yeah.

I give the, give the, the car itself, $108 ticket. You're giving that to Google. You think Google cares about $108 ticket. You're giving that to Google. You think Google cares about $108 ticket? They got Elon Musk back in Texas where we used to live. He's setting up this facility for boring and for SpaceX, not too far from where we were. And they're doing all kinds of violations of,

in terms of not paying attention to what the Department of Transportation tells them, where they would like to have the road cuts in and other things like that for safety. They don't care about sending the water to a water treatment place. They're just going to dump it in the river and all the rest of the stuff. And so the local government is saying, what do we do about this? We issue them the fines and they don't care. They just pay the fine and keep doing what they want to do. Google's going to keep doing what Google wants to do.

But again, this has been, you know, the thing that is the sizzle of the steak that they use to sell electric cars is the self-driving stuff. By the way, there was just another accident with a Tesla hitting a parked vehicle again at high speed. It's happening all the time. But Trump went to Michigan and took on the electric vehicle industry. And he says it's going to be a catastrophe for Michigan.

And Biden's environmental extremism is heartless and disloyal and horrible for the American worker. And you're starting to see it. So he's there to kind of talk to the auto workers, but they don't need as many because it's a very simple design for these electric cars. And so they can, it's a much simpler thing to build. So he's focusing on that aspect of it, but he's not talking about the idea of getting rid of all private cars. He's not talking at all about the big picture. He's not even talking about the idea that they want to, you know, take away people's internal combustion engines. He doesn't want to talk about the fact that the autonomous driving and the 5G network that Biden is spending $40 billion to make sure is in place is going to be a control network and that they're going to tell everybody, oh, by the way, the green environmental policies

that we've got have shut down the power grid enough that you can't charge your electric vehicle even if you've got one. And so, again, he's focusing on a grievance, but he doesn't have a solution. He's not going to push against the environmental extremism. He's not going to push against climate change. He'll go and he'll talk to some workers there to try to get them mad at Biden, but he's not going to talk about the issue. Meanwhile, the Biden administration is going to spend nearly $2 billion on electric buses.

This is La La's fantasy come true. She just loves those yellow school buses. She's so nostalgic about them. And the only thing that could be better than a school bus is going to be an electric school bus. And so that's what they're going to do, even though electric buses have been tried and failed in France, in Germany, in Canada. In France and Germany, they just pulled them off and said, we're not going to use them anymore. After the big lithium batteries caught fire and burned down, I think it was Stuttgart burned down the entire bus depot, catching other electric buses on fire. I've shown you videos in the past of a, of a French bus,

just parked, started to pick up people. All of a sudden burst into flames. So let's put our kids on them. Let's put our kids on these Molotov cocktails. They don't have any emissions at all until they burst into flames. And then in Canada, they had problems with it. So they pull the buses in, they took out the electric stuff and they're converting them back to diesel.

But if you listen to Biden and you listen to booty gay and you listen to Lala Harris, diesel is going to kill us all. As a matter of fact, Biden claimed back in 2021 that diesel from school buses pollutes the air and causes our students to miss school. What? Miss school? It may happen because they can't charge the electric batteries under cold conditions. Maybe they won't take a charge.

Maybe the school bus won't show up and maybe you won't be able to get to school. But that never happened with the diesel stuff. They said there's unprecedented levels of investment, says Boudier, when it comes to putting modern cleaner buses on the road. Well, why don't you invest in the road? Oh yeah, that's right. They don't want to invest in the road because the plan is not for you to have roads. They don't want you traveling under any circumstances and again you know this is just a bait and switch they're bait they're baiting you with this electric emissionless net zero emissions but it's not going to be there they're not going to have the electricity to run any of this stuff they will have electric vehicles just like they've got private jets, but you won't have anything.

And by the way, if you want to talk about the road, you don't want to invest in the road, you're going to put on heavier and heavier vehicles. You know, these electric cars are anywhere from 50% to 100% heavier than a regular car based on the size. So these buses with the batteries on them are going to be super heavy. You know, you have big taxes that real heavy trucks have to pay because they tear up the road because for whatever reason they decide they won't build the road to higher standards. But anyway, it says 95% of our school buses are fueled with diesel fuel, said Lala Harris. That contributes

to very serious conditions about health and the ability to learn, the ability to learn. So there you go. You know, diesel buses make you miss school, according to Biden, and according to Lala Harris, they harm your ability to learn. Does she think that that's what her problem is? Because she talked all the time about that wonderful experiences that she had on the buses. Maybe that's why she's unable to learn. I don't know. Harris claimed electric school buses

represented everything that the Biden administration stood for. Yeah. Waste, fraud, abuse, and a failed system as you shut down the working approaches, including saving the planet from global warming, but especially grid control. Grid control. You want to talk about grid lock?

The electric vehicles are about grid control. We're witnessing around our country and around the world the effects of extreme climate, she said. No, what we are witnessing is the effect of climate extremists. That's what we're seeing. It's not extreme. There's no change in the climate. Again, have the sea levels risen?

Well, if the sea levels have risen, then I guess, you know, that thousand-year-old French castle, that's underwater now. If the sea levels are going to rise, then I don't understand why Obama is buying oceanfront property in the areas that they say is going to be underwater. None of this is happening. None of it is happening. They don't have any proof of any of this. Washington, D.C. Transit Authority will get $100 million for roughly 100 electric battery

buses. These things are a million dollars apiece. That's how they're going to waste the money. They're going to raise taxes, and then they're going to blow it on stuff like this. Meanwhile, we look at other people who are running to be president, talking about policies. DeSantis released what they're saying is a detailed program. The problem to protect the border, the problem is, yes, we do have an invasion. Yes, we do need to stop it. But that doesn't mean that this is the right solution. The problem I have with DeSantis is when you look at things like E-Verify,

which they passed, you know, the Republican legislature in Florida and DeSantis proudly signed it and said, this is going to help to control illegal immigration. No, the problem is, yes, some people do come because they want a better job. Those are not necessarily the people you want to turn away. The people you want to turn away are the people who are coming because they don't want a job, because they want to live for free. That welfare magnet is the problem. That welfare magnet combined with total open borders is the problem. And DeSantis is only looking at the total open border side of it.

It's not strictly a law enforcement issue. It is partially a law enforcement issue. But the magnet of welfare is even bigger. And instead of addressing the magnet of welfare, he's telling people, you can't work, but you can collect the welfare if you can get through the gauntlet there at the border. And of course, the gauntlet doesn't amount to much. They've had that stand down. And the problem that I have is he's talking about it.

He says, well, you know, we've got trafficking of people. We've got trafficking of drugs. And his approach, if you're going to go strictly law enforcement with this, his approach is the same failed approach that we've seen with the war on drugs for over 50 years now. You can't stop that kind of a problem if you don't acknowledge what the true issue is. Yeah, you ought to use law enforcement to come after some of these drug cartels and organized crime that has been created by your failed policies of prohibition. The reason the cartels exist in terms of human trafficking and drug trafficking is because of your failed policies of prohibition of drugs and things like that. Just as we saw with alcohol prohibition. You have to understand that the real issue for drug prohibition is spiritual, first of all,

medical as a secondary thing. But you don't address those two issues, you're not going to be able to do anything about the crime that accompanies it. And the same thing is true of the border. If you don't address the Cloward and Piven welfare state strategy to destroy this country by bringing in the entire world and putting them on the welfare program, if you refuse to address that issue and you're going to stop people from working and you're going to try to ramp up law enforcement, that's a failure. And it's even worse, because the law enforcement,

when you look at things like E-Verify, the types of programs that Republicans are putting out, those are targeting us. Those are targeting Americans and legal citizens. Legal immigrants are being targeted with E-Verify. These people coming across the border are not going to be bothered with E-Verify. They're living in an underground criminal society anyway. They don't have to worry about that.

So you're only going to encourage the worst people to come in. So he wants to up the penalties. He wants to have E-Verify. He wants to borrow local jurisdictions from issuing IDs to illegal immigrants. Now, that would be good. You know, you look at this and you say, well, why do they need IDs? Well, because they need to vote. But you don't even have to have an ID to vote in many of these locations.

If you cross illegally, you'll be detained until your hearing date. Well, that's good. I don't agree with catch and release for any kind of crime, especially the kind of violent crimes that we see the Soros district attorney's doing. That's good. But again, law enforcement alone is not going to do the job. You're not addressing the fundamental issues. Matter of fact, you're making a lot of this worse. Now, Trump is coming out and saying if he wins, he will push to end automatic citizenship for the children of illegal aliens. He'll do that on day one, even though he didn't do it for his entire four years.

Back in 2015, we call that anchor babies, right? He had the back and forth with the reporter who was lecturing him on terminology. Everybody thought that he was going to do something about it, but he never did anything about it. He didn't do anything about DACA. He didn't do anything about anchor babies. He knows that people want him to do something about it,

so he's talking about it. But he won't do anything except talk about it. Chris Christie went to the Faith and Freedom Conference on Saturday, and he talked negatively about Trump, and he got the same kind of treatment I do when I point out Trump's faults. He says, why am I running for president? I'm running because Trump has let us down. He's let us down because he's unwilling to take responsibility for any of the mistakes that were made or for any of the faults that he has and for any of the things that he's done. That's not leadership, everybody.

That's a failure of leadership. Well, that's absolutely true. And again, I'm not endorsing Chris Christie. Chris Christie has been wrong on many, many fundamental issues, but what he's saying about that is true. The reason I mentioned what he said about that was because he immediately gets jeers from the crowd saying, but we love Trump. And they booed him. He said, you can boo all you want. You can love him all you want. But this is what happens when you tell the truth. And the reality is, is that these people love him. And I think one of the reasons that they love him is because they don't know him.

The people who know him do not love him. As a matter of fact, I can't remember the guy's name, but he was somebody who worked for the Trump administration as Trump was throwing nasty juvenile insults at people. He said, this is a serious question. Who would take a position to work in a Trump cabinet? Who would take a position to work in a Trump cabinet? Would anybody take a position to work in a Trump cabinet? You know, Brett Baier asked him, you know, about his hires because that was a glaring failure in everybody's eyes.

And everybody knew as he appointed these people, whether he's appointing Rex Tillerson or whether he's appointing the Goldman Sachs CEO who got a golden parachute of $200 or $250 million or something so he could go work in the Trump administration. We're looking at all these things during the transition period. And this is just one horrible pick after the other. People that were totally antithetical to everything that Trump said, he stood for. How could this be? So in that transition period, I was texting Trump and I was texting Alex. I said, you realize what's going on with this guy?

Look at this guy. And I was on vacation and Alex called me, why are you texting me all this stuff? I said, because I was on vacation and, uh, Alex, uh, you know, called me, why are you texting me all this stuff? Cause you need to know this stuff. You're not saying anything about Trump's picks. You need to speak out about that. If you're talking to him, you need to speak out about that. He's doing the wrong thing. Well, that was the wrong thing to say to Alex because Alex had said to me just before the election says, says, what do we do if Trump wins? I said, well, we support him when he does the right thing. We oppose him when he does the wrong thing.

And he goes, hmm, we were alone in the break room and he just walked out. I said, well, this is going to be a difficult four years. And of course, the problem is that Trump rarely ever did anything right. And even when he said he was going to do the right thing, even when he began to do the right thing, eventually he did the wrong thing. He did the opposite. He didn't just fall short of the mark. He, what he did was antithetical to what he said he was going to do, but here's what he had to say to Brett bear.

When Brett bear talked to him about his cabinet, we put people in that were great and we put people in that weren't. I now know Washington probably better than anybody. I know the good ones and the bad ones, and we will have really great, strong people. I already know who they are, but we will have really great, strong people. Okay. In 2016, you said that. I'm going to surround myself with only the best and most serious people.

Yeah. Then what happened? Okay, well, you know, they didn't work out too good, but they were great. They were the best people. And so Chris Christie is getting fat jokes from Trump. This childish mocking, you know, just like he says, Chris Christie's fat. His body is too big. Kelly's brain is too small, that kind of stuff. That's where this is.

And these people think he's a leader. They think he's a savior. They think he's a messiah who's going to lay his life down for them. I'm disgusted with him on a daily basis. That's why I talk about this. He has repeatedly jabbed the morbidly obese Christie with vicious barbs, says BizPakReview. Well, you know, problem is that we have an increase in morbidity. Not because of obesity, but because of Trump's jabs.

Far more so than the obesity. Yeah, he jabbed a lot of people. Uh, and it's the one issue, uh, that is really how to be key with people, but nobody's talking about that really, except for RFK jr. Nobody's talking about that. Howard Kurtz was interviewing him, said, uh, once Trump started hitting back at you, Christie on a number of fronts, he took aim at your weight. What was your reaction to that? And Christy said, like he's some Adonis.

As a matter of fact, you want to see a guy who's in fit shape is amazing. The shape that RFK Jr. was in this picture on the drudge report. I mean, he's, uh, he's ripped, um, uh, and working out a lot. I guess if you're a trust fund kid, you got the time to do that. It's like, he's a year older than me. And I, I look like I'm about 30 years older than him. Anyway. Um, Christie came back and said, he's like a child. It's like a bully on the schoolyard who teases you and makes fun of you. But here's my message to him. I don't care what he says about me and I don't care what he thinks about me. And he should take a look in the mirror every once in a while.

Maybe he had dropped this weight thing off of his list of criticisms. And then he tweeted out, uh, breaking news. I've struggled with my weight for 20 years. What I haven't struggled with is my character like Donald Trump. And, uh, and he followed up with this. So Trump is now some Adonis Fabio's lost twin brother. Let's get real. Like millions of Americans.

I too have struggled with my weight, but Trump isn't unfit for office because of his appearance. He's unfit because he has no character. Well, he has character. It's just bad character. But look, the black bad blood with Chris Christie, Trump goes back to appointments that he didn't get because he was opposed by Jared Kushner. He had locked up Jared Kushner's felonious father, white-collar felon. Chris Christie had prosecuted him for that. So used to talking about Department of Justice persecutions.

No, he had rightfully prosecuted him and rightfully jailed Jared Kushner's criminal father. And Jared was still upset about that. And so even though Christie had backed Trump and other things like that, uh, he kept him from getting an appointment. Chris Christie still supported Trump until January the 6th and then, uh, pushed back on that. But yeah, when you talk about the pardons, DeSantis now has a commercial out talking about the corruption of the Trump pardons. Listen to this. Why do the elites get to play by different rules? In 2013, Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick was sentenced to 28 years in prison. He was a stone-cold crook who assaulted police

and stole millions of dollars from the people of Michigan, enriching himself through racketeering, bribery, extortion, and fraud. Not even President Obama would give him clemency, but Kwame's millionaire friend approached Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner. $100,000 later, Trump let Kwame out of jail 16 years early, commuting his sentence on his final day in the White House.

For the elites in the swamp, that's just business as usual. It's up to the rest of us to elect a president who will put an end to it. Never Back Down is responsible for the content of this advertising. Wait, so he got a pardon for only $100,000? You know, Obama would not pardon this thug, but Trump did? A donation of $100,000? I mean, how did he get such a discount? You know, Rudy Giuliani is putting it out for $2 million.

Was Giuliani keeping $1.9 million of it for himself and not splitting it equally with Trump? What's up with that? Yeah, no, the thing is, we look at thugs who are violent and all the rest of this stuff, and we look at the jabs at Chris Christie. Millions of people have lost their lives.

Tens or hundreds of millions of people have been crippled or will die from these injections. Dr. Dennis Rancourt, COVID injections, I call them the Trump shot because he's so proud of it, have killed 13 million people worldwide. But you know, Trump is still proud of that. It's one of his greatest accomplishments, killing 13 million people. That's why I said I had Mao and Trump on the ballot. If somebody held a gun to my head and said you got to vote for one of them,

I'd vote for Mao because at least people know that Mao is a mass murderer. They don't know that Trump is a mass murderer. And they're still promoting him. Dr. Dennis Rancourt's research has shown that the vaccination campaign in India caused a death of 3.7 million residents. In Western countries, we quantified the average all ages rate of death to be one for every 2,000 injections, increasing exponentially with age. We estimated that the vaccines had killed 13 million people worldwide.

He has a PhD in physics, Dr. Rancourt does. He held postdoctoral research positions at prestigious institutions in France and the Netherlands before becoming a physics professor and lead scientist at the University of Ottawa for 23 years. But this is something that he's gone to bat for, to end his career. You see, the murders should have ended Trump's career. Instead, it ended the career of a lot of honest doctors and scientists,

people like Dr. Peter McCullough. Those are the people who are having their careers ended. While Trump gets cash and applause from the idiots, from the idiots. He founded in April of 2020, April the 18th, right at the very beginning. This guy knew what was going on. He founded or started doing work for the Ontario Civil Liberties Association as soon as lockdown began. And for a new nonprofit organization called Correlation. All of his work and interviews about COVID are documented on his website

that he had to create because he's being censored everywhere. He's lost his career. He's censored everywhere because he tells the truth about Trump. There's Trump on COVID. Did the COVID vaccine work? It's such an interesting question. Yes. Not only that, I also did the Regenerons of the world.

You know, the whole, we did a tremendous job on that. But we had a vaccine. Now you have difference. You have different COVIDs. You had COVID you have difference. You have different COVIDs. You had COVID-19 and then you have different COVIDs. But we had an original was COVID-19, which was the roughest one. So I have a Democrat friend who's very smart. Hopefully he votes for me, but he's very smart.

He said, I don't understand one thing about you. I watch your rallies. They're incredible. You talk about beating ISIS. You talk about taxes. You talk about regulation. you talk about everything but you never saw said that i've never heard you talk about how the incredible job you did with the vaccines because as you know i got them done in nine months and it was supposed to take anywhere from five to twelve years i broke their ass okay

and you know who doesn't like me too much? The FDA. Because they were very bureaucratic, and I got it done. And he said, you may have saved in the world, throughout the world, 100 million people, and you never talk about it.

I said, I really don't want to talk about it, because as a Republican, it's not a great thing to talk about, because for some reason, it's just not. For some reason? Yeah, for some reason. Because people love love the vaccines and people hate the vaccines yeah yeah i have hundreds of millions of people's lives what a liar he is disgust me this whole political process disgust me and i'll

disgust you he's still out there bragging about this stuff. And of course he says it's his Democrat friend because he knows all the Republicans hate the vaccine, but he loves the vaccine and they vote for the guy who loves the vaccine. The guy who would do it to you again, given half an opportunity. We'll be right back. decoding the mainstream propaganda it's the david knight show let's talk about washington dc the district of corruption the district of criminals. We have an attorney for the IRS whistleblower says that Attorney General Garland is lying big time about the Hunter Biden investigation.

Of course, Jonathan Turley said, wait, somebody's lying. Either the IRS whistleblowers are lying or you got Garland is lying. Well, let's look at it from the side of the IRS whistleblowers. The attorney for IRS whistleblower, Gary Shapley, suggests that Biden's corrupt attorney general is lying about David Weiss being the one who was ultimately responsible for charging Hunter Biden. They say a frustrated Weiss didn't have the authority to charge Hunter and tried to make himself a special counsel so that he could charge him.

But he was denied becoming a special counsel. And the New York Post says attorneys for IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley escalated a war of words with Attorney General Merrick Garland, who has disputed allegations that officials inside the Department of Justice hamstrung their own probe into the into hunter biden uh he's trying to say that this is weiss's uh call because he was the one to cover up uh what he did to cover up hunter biden this is a cover-up of the cover-up he shut down the investigation for hunter biden covered it up, and now he's got to cover it up. And so the key thing about this is to say it wasn't my decision, it was David Weiss's decision, the U.S. attorney for Delaware who was handling the case. But Shapley has insisted that Weiss was not allowed to pursue certain charges against Hunter Biden, says the New York

Post, and made multiple unsuccessful attempts to elevate himself to the rank of special counsel to get around the problem. On Saturday, Shapley demanded that Garland, quote, reconcile the denials with evidence. Prove it. I can prove it, he says. And he can. Because, as I pointed out yesterday, he memorialized the meeting that he and others had with Weiss. And Weiss's, Shapley's attorney, says Mr. Shapley would have no insight as to why Mr. Weiss would make these statements

at the October 7th, 2022 meeting if they were false. Mr. Weiss made these statements, the fact that he did, is easily corroborated, and it's up to him and the Justice Department to reconcile the evidence of the october 7th 2022 statements with contrary statements by mr weiss and the attorney general to congress an organization called empower oversight and its founder jason foster also shared a contemporaneous irs email from shapely in words, he memorialized this as it happened.

And in that email, he says, why stated that he is not the deciding person on whether these charges are filed. And so the shows that Gary Shapley's memorandum of this October 7th, 2022 meeting in which his supervisor agreed, quote, covered it all. The meeting's significance was so explosive that Gary Shapley wanted to make sure that he documented it in writing and had others sign off on it. So he's got documentary evidence that

was created at the time to say that David Weiss, when they say, why aren't you doing anything about this? This is a major felony. I don't have the authority to do this David Weiss, when they say, why aren't you doing anything about this? This is a major felony. I don't have the authority to do this. I'm trying to make myself a special counsel, but they won't let me do it. And they memorialized the people that were at the meeting, all agreed at the time. That's what he had to say. So it looks like Merrick Garland is bluffing, is lying as well. Shapely is now actually naming the six witnesses that were present at the meeting in question, including members of the FBI and the IRS investigative teams that were working on the Hunter case. That certainly adds to his credibility. If he weren't telling the truth, there's very little reason to believe that he would be naming names and essentially challenging others to go under oath about what he had to say.

Compare that to Garland's response, which was coy. Weiss had the power to charge any district while not actually answering whether he was stopped from doing so, if even with a suggestion from the upper levels of the Department of Justice. So he's kind of pushing this along. So what's going to happen? Is Merrick Garland going to be impeached by McCarthy? McCarthy is starting to lean in that direction, as he should have long ago. But the issue is that he needs to do something about George Santos. Because this is going to further underscore the Democrat argument if he doesn't do it. It's going to underscore their argument. This is purely political. You're going to cover up

the crimes, the lies, the fraud of George Santos because he's in your party. And of course, that's what Kevin McCarthy and other people supportive of that approach, like Marjorie Taylor Greene, that's what they have been doing. No, we don't care. He was elected. Leave him alone. But now there's a House Ethics Committee that has added new charges of fraud to what they were looking at with George Santos.

House Ethics Committee subcommittee charged specifically with investigating Santos made its first move to investigate him in March. Last Thursday, they expanded the long list of charges to include the act of fraud because he filed for unemployment benefits while working. There's no question about that. That's a matter of record, just like what was said at that meeting by David Weiss to IRS and FBI officials. So what do you do about that? Do you leave him there? Well, apparently the answer for McCarthy is yes. The strongest condemnation that McCarthy can come up with is that I would not support him if he ran for reelection.

No, McCartney, you need to get him out of there. Need to get him out. Santos will be legally living at the expense of New York taxpayers, says the new American, in prison. It might be the first legitimate position that he's had in years. Vandy fair goes on a long list, uh, which I won't go into, but you know, he's, um, to sum it up, uh, did he rip off an Amish dog breeder with a bad check? Where did the $700,000 come from? What's the deal with all of his marriages? Is he Jewish or is he Jew ish? Was he a drag queen in Brazil? Was he a ish? Was he a drag queen in Brazil? Was he a Broadway producer? Was he really a journalist in Brazil?

Did his campaign deliberately, repeatedly, illegally charge donors on their credit cards? Was he the target of an assassination in December? Well, inquiring minds want to know, but he hasn't got a ounce of character left. So why are they not kicking him out?

What McCarthy should and could do would be to move against Soros and then move against Merrick Garland to say, we have a district of corruption, we have a district of criminals, and we're going to stop this. But instead, he's going to play partisan games. He's going to do the same thing thing to a lesser degree, of course, that Biden is doing. Biden is going to come after his political opponents for crimes committed,

but he's going to look the other way when it's his family members, when it's his party. And that's what McCarthy is going to do as well. He's still too weak. He was asked by, on Fox News, he said, is he going to support him for a re-election campaign? No, I'm not. He shouldn't run for re-election. Impeach him.

Impeach him or be seen as a partisan hack. Because that's what this is really about, if he doesn't impeach him. Meanwhile, McCarthy is forecasting that a Garland impeachment inquiry will happen if the whistleblower allegations are true. Well, they were memorialized. We've got documents to show that these whistleblower allegations are true, just like we've got documents to prove the fraud against Santos is true. But McCarthy is going to go after one and not the other. That's the big problem with all this stuff.

We'll be right back. Thank you. you're listening to The David Knight Show. Welcome back. It made my day yesterday when I saw a comment on one of the videos on Twitter from a listener who was talking about how they escaped Sweden so they could legally homeschool their child. And she put up this very nice video here of her. Swedish government, okay, this is what we left so that we, thanks to God, it's us and not you who will decide how she's educated. It went too fast for me to read it to you. I apologize. But there's pictures of her daughter and she's working on math problems. As a matter of fact, working on algebra there.

And, but what she learns from her mother about god is really going to be the most important thing uh she said uh she sent this to me on twitter said thank you for your inspiration god did the rest we left sweden to homeschool we spent our first year doing so well that's all we can do right we plant seeds we water them. God gives the increase. He makes those things happen. Give him the credit. And I said, that's wonderful. You've chosen what is important, your daughter, but their daughter above everything else. And I know other listeners who have done that as well. They've moved locations within the United States to get to more homeschool friendly states. They've upended their life, changed their job, everything else. But she went to a different country. I said,

enjoy the precious time that you have with her. It's going to go incredibly quickly. And I said, I know other people that have tried to get out of Sweden and other places like that who have been not allowed. And I can't remember if it was Sweden, or if it was Germany, there was a couple there. Uh, he was a citizen of the country. The mother was not. And they wanted to leave and go back to her country where they could homeschool, but they arrested the family, took the kids away from them and all the rest of this stuff.

So the countries with the most homeschooling movements are, interestingly enough, the English countries that you typically see as part of the Five Eyes. The US, UK, Australia, New Zealand. I was surprised actually to see that it was in the UK because the UK is very restrictive of so many different things like that. But the ones where it is, and I guess less restrictive compared to something like Germany, for example. Well, they will arrest you, put you in jail, and steal your kids. Germany has outlawed it entirely, for example. So I guess part of this is the English tradition of liberty

versus the German tradition of authoritarianism. And of course, the whole idea of government schools is a German idea. Even things like kindergarten, where we've got to get the kid at an earlier age so we can imprint them with what the government wants them to learn. Yeah, kindergarten, literally a child garden to grow the child. Well, North Carolina, the homeschool association there was called the Greenhouse Report, the thing that they published on a regular basis. Our view of it is the family is a greenhouse

to protect the child in the tender years to get them started because knowing that you're ultimately going to have to put them out in the world. But what is the situation like in Sweden? There are only 200 families that homeschool, according to this report that was referenced on Wikipedia. Only 200 families, only half of them legally. They said June 2010 was the most recent legislation. Supposedly, homeschooling is supposedly allowed under special circumstances of the student's health,

or if the family is traveling. They said, but it is virtually never, never approved. And Sweden children are obligated to attend school from the age of six. In 2010, they passed a law that added further restrictions on homeschooling to an earlier law that was passed in 1985, banning it. You know, that was about the mid-80s was about the time that the U.S. homeschooling movement was gathering steam. So I guess that's why they banned it in Sweden at that time.

I first heard of homeschooling inside the Libertarian Party, talking to parents who had had battles with CPS, talking about some parents who were actually killed by CBS, CBS, CPS, for resisting having their children taken away. Yeah, people have shed blood for freedom. Our homeschool freedoms that we enjoy in this country were because people shed blood, because people wrote and complained and organized to push back against this stuff. You know, America is the only country that has not signed on to the UN Convention for the Rights of the Child. But you notice how children's rights over and above parental rights

is not only being pushed through the judiciary. That's been the case for quite some time. I was doing videos about that over a decade ago. But now this idea of parental rights over, of children's rights over parental rights and denial of parental rights, that has now become established by the government and the government schools. They have established that in their minds. But it's not a legal, it's not a legal thing. by the government and the government schools. They have established that in their minds.

But it's not a legal thing. Courts will make that pronouncement, but it's not a legal thing. Again, do you think any of these people running for president are going to protect your rights to homeschool? Do you think they're going to do anything about that when you've got some CPS people or something like that? No, that's going to be done locally. Again, pay attention to what is happening locally. Work at the state level to make sure that you've got laws

that are going to support your right to homeschool, support the politicians locally who are going to do that, know who the sheriff is so they're not going to take the side of CPS. Hopefully you can get a sheriff like that. Going back to Sweden, homeschooling will not be approved on the basis of religious beliefs or for philosophical reasons, nor is there an automatic approval if the parent has had teacher training. Well, you know, there's an interesting story

that I've had on my desk for a while here. A school principal has quit her job as a principal to homeschool her three kids on a 10-acre homestead. She said, I wanted to raise thinkers. And the interesting thing about this, this is in central Oregon where she did it, rural Oregon, which is very conservative, unlike Portland and the cities and that type of thing. Uh, her name is Mandy. She was adopted from South Korea, uh, grew up in Nebraska, uh, her own public school experience. She said was not all roses. Neither was her husband's experience. It was a native Texan, but he was moved a lot as a child, and it was difficult for him adjusting in those moves. So she got into teaching because she said she wanted to be a positive change and an advocate for all students, but she found that even though she went to teach in a private school, she wasn't teaching in a public school, a government school. She wasn't teaching in a private school. She wasn't teaching in a public school, a government school. She wasn't

teaching in a charter school. She was teaching in a private school. And listen to what she had to say. She said after struggling with having little control over what she was so passionate about as a principal, Mandy, who has a master's in education, has worked in both public and private schools. She felt called to take full control of her children's education. I could not be the change that I wanted to be in our school system. But more so, I could not leave my children in it to suffer. That's exactly the way it was with Karen, who was teaching school. She got into school not because she was on some mission to change society.

She got in, Karen got into teaching just because she loved kids. And she was great with kids. But it bothered her to see what was being done to the kids, and she didn't want to be a part of that. And she got out of it. That's why we homeschooled our kids. She said, I remember as an educator wanting more control over how I was teaching curriculum,

but then I would have to have it approved by my administration, by the school, by the district, by the state. Ultimately, the answer was always no. And she said it wasn't the fault of any singular group. It was multifaceted because she's fighting with a bureaucracy, a bureaucracy where the tentacles ultimately go up to the Department of Education. They have that leverage of money, and they use that to control minds through education and curriculum. So she left her job 22, and as principal at her kid's private Christian school.

A private Christian school. She couldn't, as a principal, control it and fix the curriculum and other things. Because again, even the private schools are going to fall into this trap over the curriculum because they're falling into the trap of the tests. If you have standardized testing, then people are going to teach to that testing, which means that you're going to have to have their curriculum that matches their tests. It's always that type of thing. It's the tentacles of the Department of Education.

And so it goes into every type of school. She said, I wanted my kids. Here is the really positive part. So listen to this if you have children and you're thinking about this. She said, I wanted my children to not sit at a desk for seven plus hours a day. I wanted to be able to provide my children with a life of enriched learning. I wanted my children to focus on progress and not perfection. I wanted to raise thinkers and leaders, not followers and workers.

You understand? That's the key thing. That's the purpose of the factory school system. The factory school system, we're going to have followers and workers. The politicians want followers and the factories want workers. They don't care about you. They don't want you to be a leader. They're the leaders.

They don't want any competition. They don't want you to be a thinker. If you think you're not going to follow them and you're not going to work for them, but if you don't think you'll follow Trump. Mandy and her kids school for anywhere from 90 minutes to four hours a day to meet their weekly goals. The rest of the day is led by what Mandy calls home culture. And this is the thing. I feel sorry for these kids who are put on a school bus and transported 90 minutes.

Perhaps a round trip or maybe even one way. Who knows? I feel sorry for these kids who waste so much time on a school bus and then waste so much time in school. It really is. Most of it is a waste of time. Because, again, the key lesson that's being taught is not for people to learn critical thinking.

It's not for them to learn facts. It's about them to become followers and workers and to do what they're told and to follow the experts without question. And so that's why they have to keep them in school for so long. All the people that I know that homeschool, uh, they typically do it for about half the time that, uh, their kids would be in classes and you already have saved the time in terms of transportation. And then the rest of that time, the kids get a chance to explore and really learn the important stuff. I remember John Taylor Gatto was, uh, the New York teacher of the year, New York state teacher of the Year twice. And that's what he would do in high school.

He taught in a government school. He'd take the kids out all the time doing field trips, trying to get them involved in the real world. Everything the government is doing to children, but adults as well, but especially to children, is to try to trap us into this virtual world where we don't do anything real. We relate to the world through a computer screen.

End of story. So one of the most popular questions she said I receive is, what is your daily homeschool schedule? She said the answer is we don't have one. In our home culture, it was important for my children to understand that learning is a joy that never has to end. When we're reading a good book, we don't need to stop because the clock is telling us that it's time for a math lesson. If we find a praying mantis in the garden, we don't need to take a photo and then run back

because we've got to get to a language arts class. We take our time with that. So besides learning from books, her three kids spend time gardening, baking, doing crafts, taking care of animals on their homestead. They're learning real things, participating in the real world. The family has four goats, 16 chickens, four dogs, two cats, and a beautiful garden. And they're thinking about getting a cow in the future. They've got 10 acres for mandy her christian faith plays a huge role in her homeschooling journey and her parenting philosophy as a matter of fact the article that was done is the wall street journal in new york times they found a couple who yeah we were homeschooled and um you know i just don't want

this for my kids and so we stopped doing it and our and I just don't want this for my kids. And so we stopped doing it. And our parents were just appalled. We had Christian parents, but I want something different for my kids. Well, they've never experienced a school. They have absolutely no idea what their kids are going to be taught in school. No idea whatsoever. They're going to be asking the kids what their pronouns are in a couple of years.

But the key part of it was their denial of their Christian faith that they were raised in. And so it was a rebellion against that. If you look at what the two parents said, that's why they got out of it. It makes it very easy when you turn your attention from God and your children to yourself. I want to do what works for me. But in the long run, what you'll find if you homeschool is it's going to come back to you in rich relationships, rich experiences and memories that you're going to create. It truly is a wonderful thing.

I can't recommend it enough. So she said, I've been in enough schools to know that teachers' natural bias of their religion, of their politics, is going to come out. It's not an intentional thing, but it is an intentional thing. You've seen TikTok videos of parents. And, of course, as I reported yesterday, there was a meeting people got the notes to where they had a lot of teachers saying, well, this is how we're going to get around the parents,

and this is how we're going to push this LGBT stuff and transgender stuff to the kids, and we're going to do it around the parents. I know that it's prohibited. And even in Texas, as they were saying, well, we're going to push this LGBT stuff and transgender stuff to the kids. And we're going to do it around the parents. I know that it's prohibited. And even in Texas, as they were saying, well, we're going to make this against the law. They were defiantly putting out on social media videos saying, well, I can, I'll do whatever I want to in my classroom. And no law is going to stop me. No principle is going to stop me. I'll do whatever I want.

She says, even if they're not that rebellious, their natural biases of religion and politics is going to stop me. I'll do whatever I want. She says, even if they're not that rebellious, their natural biases of religion and politics is going to come out as they're teaching the kids. She said, it's a human nature thing, even if it's not deliberate. Well, you have to understand, we've got a lot of teachers who see themselves as revolutionaries. I had that when I was going to school. I saw that in people and teachers. They were openly activist about their religion or about their atheism, I should say, or about their political beliefs. Very open about it. So you just kind of mark that and say,

take it with a grain of salt. I feel blessed to be that teacher for my children who is going to be showing them their religious and political stuff. I take that. I'm very grateful, she said, that I am the moral compass from the heart of my family. You see, that's what we used to understand mothers were. The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world. That's why

these authoritarian governments always want to get rid of the family. They don't want that moral compass. They want the kids attached only to them. You go all the way back to Plato and in his Republic, the ideal situation for him was for children to not even know who their parents were. They had one parent and that's the state. They had one God and that's the state. The ideal situation for him was for children to not even know who their parents were. They had one parent, and that's the state. They had one God, and that's the state. That's the point of kindergarten. That's the point of outlawing homeschool.

That's the point of attacking families and the point of attacking parents. How can people not see that anymore with our school system? It's right in your face. They tried to hide it to, they tried to hide it for a very long time and it's difficult to convince people. I thought finally, now that they're doing it in the open, doing it defiantly and in your face, maybe now people understand.

But so few people do. It's sad. Meanwhile, the biggest misconception amongst people about homeschooling, she said, is that people think that there's a lack of socialization. I was absolutely amazed to see her say that. This is after we've gone through three years of social distancing. These people are talking about socialization?

Are you kidding me? This kind of psychological abuse they put kids through, put masks on them, isolate them from each other, six feet from each other, don't talk to anybody else. Home school kids don't ever have anything like that. As a matter of fact, I would always tell people, you talk about the socialization thing. I said, all the homeschoolers that I know, not just ours, all the homeschoolers I know will talk to kids of any age, and they'll talk to adults in the same way. Yeah, there's differences in personality. Yeah. Some kids are more gregarious than others and some are kind of hang back in a crowd situation. But, you know, apart from that individual variation, they don't make any distinction between ages. You know, in schools, you're so rigidly segregated

by age. And I know because I felt it myself when I was going through it. You know, in schools, you're so rigidly segregated by age. And I know because I felt it myself when I was going through it. You know, if somebody is older than you, oh, well, you know, I shouldn't talk to them. Or if they're younger than you, there's a contempt for that. If they're adults, you don't even talk to them unless it's a teacher and you have to talk to them, that type of thing. It's a very unhealthy type of socialization. And I used to respond by saying, well, if you're talking about the Lord of the Flies type of socialization that people get in schools, no, we don't do that. You know, where you are essentially raised by your peers. They're the same age. And you turn into this, what happened to the kids on the Lord of the Flies on the island?

You know, they create that kind of situation. But I can't believe that after they put kids' masks and separated them and put plastic barriers between everybody, that they're talking about socialization at this point in time. What a ridiculous question that they have. Interesting that she's going to be speaking at a wild and free conference in Tennessee in the fall of 2023. I wonder what that is about. I should try to get a hold of her, and yeah, we should try to get her on to talk. To give you an idea of just how crazy the schools have become and how the government has become crazy, a judge has now stopped a

North Carolina charter school from having a dress code that has girls in skirts. Now, regardless of what you think about this issue, this is a charter school. And so a charter school is going to come out and people will create, they use government money, which is a bad thing. But they will come out with, because there's strings attached, as we see with this thing perhaps, but they will set up different values. You know, we're going to have a charter school.

It's going to do classical Christian education or something. And maybe we're going to have uniforms to try to underscore that. We're going to have a very traditional type of school. Well, that's laid out there in the charter school. So if you're a parent who doesn't agree with that, why would you send your kids there? Because you want to make trouble? Because you want to be the fly in the ointment? Because you're not going to allow anybody else to pursue what they want to do?

Evidently so. Because these people decided that they would defy the rules of this school's founding and say, well, we want to go to this school, but we don't want to have the uniforms there. And we don't like girls in skirts. And then they took them to court and sued them. And then, of course, the foolish federal court said, no, you can't have a charter school and you can't have your own values.

We're going to impose our values on you total intolerance you see and these people all do this in the name of oh we have to be tolerant we have to be tolerant of diversity and yet they do not tolerate opinions that diverge from their mandates or their opinions so the school's founder had argued that skirts were intended to maintain chivalry that he defined as a code of conduct where women are regarded as a fragile vessel that men are supposed to take care of and honor. He added that the policy would ensure that female students were treated courteously and more gently than boys.

But a group of parents challenged the policy, saying it put their daughters at a disadvantage, according to their male counterparts. Well, so, just the opposite, I think. But why? The bottom line is, whether or not you agree with the idea that you're going to push chivalry or skirts or any of the rest of the stuff, the thing I don't understand is why you would go to a school like this and make a problem. This is not like this is a school district, a government school district.

It's not like that at all. You chose to go to that school. You knew what the rules were. Why would you do that? Well, I'm going to end with the homeschooling thing here. Just one more story. You've got a Harvard University business administration professor has been placed on leave after faking a study. And hypocritically, the study that was faked was about honesty.

Just completely made it up. They said, first of all, we saw that the results of the paper were not reproducible. Then we saw they were completely made up. We saw that someone had deliberately tweaked the experimental data and invalidated the results. You see, this is always what these people do. They hide the data. They manipulate the data.

We saw it with the climate MacGuffin, with Michael Mann. We saw it with the COVID MacGuffin, with Fauci, all of us. They hide the data they manipulate the data we saw it with the climate mcguffin with michael mann we saw it with the covid mcguffin with fauci all of us they hide the data they manipulate the data they lie to you this is one of the reasons why um you know i toyed with the idea of a bumper sticker uh for our kids because i'd see all these bumper stickers you know well my student made the honor list at such and such a school right i have an honor student at such and such a school. I said, well, you know, we had to have a name for our school. And, um, and so I said, well, uh, maybe we ought to get one. And, uh, maybe we ought to get one and say, I have an honorable student at this school.

We called it the Peripatous Academy, since I had to come up with something, because that's a peripatetic instruction was what Aristotle did. It's what Jesus did. We just walk along the road and you talk to the kids, and that was really kind of our approach to it. And it's what is actually strongly worded and suggested in Deuteronomy 6 for how to parent your children. You walk alongside of them and you talk to them as they're going through life and you

explain things to them. But we know better. Now we have Deuteronomy Part 2 where we turn our kids over to the government to raise. We'll be right back. Thank you. Analyzing the globalist's next move. Music And now, The David Knight Show. Well, as I said, at the top of the hour, we're going to be talking to Jack Lawson, Civil Defense Manual, Volume 1 and 2. They sell as a match set.

We're going to be talking about a chapter on nuclear war, which you ought to think about. It's something to think about, especially with what our government is choosing to do in Russia. We saw things get very dodgy this last week. And I want to take a look at other aspects of this. I'm going to take a look at the Putin pooch, where where butcher, I guess, putches how you pronounce it. But what happened in Russia as this was unfolding over a short period of time, there was a tremendous spike in cash demand across Russia bank runs because of

crisis and war. This is going to natural response to any of this stuff. Cash demand jumped by 30% across all of Russia, but by 80% in the Southern regions where the Wagner group was, they said central banks had averted any significant problem by infusing regional banks with threefold cash injection and offering reassurances that the situation had returned to normal. So the bottom line is when things hit the fan, you're going to make sure that you got cash on hand.

You're going to make, make sure you got gold and silver, things like that. That's real money. And, uh, again, David Knight dot gold will take you to Tony Arterman,

um, uh, and his wise wolf, uh, dot gold. Uh, but you should think about that. And you should think about what is happening with the dollar, Take it to Tony Arterman and his wise wolf, Dot Gold. But you should think about that. And you should think about what is happening with the dollar. Because even as this is happening, and as they're coming after Putin,

Putin said this is the beginning of the end. Not for me, but for the U.S. dollar, he said. The dollar is on its way out as a leading currency, he said, at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum last week, just before, in my opinion, NATO tried to end this. I think we're going to find out ultimately that this mercenary was being bribed by the people who print the money. I think that's what we're going to find. But anyway, the share of settlements in the dollar is declining, he said. This is Putin at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum.

The share of settlements in China's yuan is growing. Oil producers in leading Arab countries are now saying that they're ready to accept yuan in payment for oil. That's the end of the petrodollar. If this trend gains momentum, said Putin, and other oil and gas exchanges appear where settlements are not made in dollars, then this is the beginning of the end for this currency. He said, by pursuing short-term opportunistic goals, the U.S. has undermined its own power in world finance. By using the dollar as a war tool, as Biden has done, they raise doubts about the reliability

of the American currency, both as an instrument of payment in global trade and as a reserve asset. And Russia has been rapidly de-dollarizing an accumulating goal since the American government created the coup in 2014 in Ukraine and bragged about it, of course.

And as we see the move towards a cashless society, in Abu Dhabi, capital of the United Arab Emirates, they've just put in an autonomous retail store. There's nobody working in the store. Instead, you will have facial scans for you. Of course, this comes from winepressnews.com. I think we should start calling these autonomous stores, I think we should start calling them non-human, or perhaps even anti-human.

You have a face pay as a point-of-sale technology. Payments can be made with your face or with a credit card. No cash. Customers can only enter the store after they indicate how they will be paying. As a matter of fact, there is a barrier there, and you have to have your face registered with them or tap your card on the pos machine which has a double meaning in this case it has a supposed to be point of sale but of course it also could be the more popular term that you see on social media for pos

for face pay they'll need to move to the face pay machine and simply look at it. Once the payment method of choice is determined, the gates open, allowing you to get into this store. Well, that's just what I want. Prison society. You have a prison society and you've got prison stores. They've got jail things. They can open it up and let you in. And then, you know, maybe if there's a malfunction with this non-human store, maybe it won't let you out. Once inside the store, the sensors will detect which items are picked up by customers who will

then get billed for the items as they exit. What a great system for the few people who wish to turn us into slaves. Meanwhile, in Singapore, they're working on standards for CBDCs. That's not unusual. Everybody is doing that. But what is unusual about this is that this is a collaboration between the IMF and Amazon. Amazon. Yeah, first kill the small non-essential stores, and then we make the move to CBDC. Pentagon, meanwhile, is scanning social media for any social media posts that criticize generals.

Think about that. Why is that something that they should be involved in? They actually have their own little Secret service protectors, you know, like you've got the Secret Service of the President. They have the U.S. Army Protective Services Battalion that works there with the Pentagon. They're tasked with protecting high-ranking military officers from, listen to this, assassination, kidnapping, injury, or embarrassment. Embarrassment.

Embarrassment. I can understand the assassination, kidnapping, injury, but you're going to protect them from embarrassment? And how do they do that? Well, they do that by monitoring social media for direct, indirect, and veiled threats. And then the embarrassment part comes from identifying negative sentiment. Now, they criticize these people. They're going to come after you. The country's national security machinery has become increasingly focused on social media.

This is something that was obtained by the intercept. They were able to get an army procurement document that was not redacted. And of course, it's not a surprise that they would be increasingly focused on social media because these are the people who created social media. It was a military industrial complex working with the intelligence community, the CIA and others, who gave the venture capital funding to these companies that became social media. And as they shut down their total awareness, total information awareness program, because everybody said, we don't want that kind of big brother government.

We had Facebook created the same day they shut that down. And that's going to be where your life log is. That's what they were talking about, their life log program. Well, people make a life log and they do it voluntarily on Facebook. You don't need to have the government create that program and populate it with all that data. If they'll do it for themselves during the Trump administration, education,

secretary Betsy DeVos had around the clock security detail that racked up over $24 million in costs. So you have the department of education, a department that should not even exist, for which there is no constitutional authority, for which presidents from its inception, you know, it was created by Jimmy Carter during an election year that Ronald Reagan was elected, and he said he's going to get rid of it. But of course, he grew it into maturity. And so you have these individuals running as Republicans.

That's one of the organizations, one of the bureaucracies that they would always say they wanted to get rid of. But instead of getting rid of it, they made it bigger and bigger. And Betsy DeVos, whose family, very wealthy, makes a lot of contributions to big Republican causes. So they put her in as head of the department of education and then spent $24 million to protect her around the clock. The procurement document that the intercept got, uh,

shows that the army needs to quote mitigate online threats unquote, as well as to identify quote positive or negative sentiment. Hmm. I don't know if I see a group of army guys coming up here to the house. I guess I'll know it's something I said. The Army's new toolkit goes beyond social media surveillance of the type offered by private contractors like DataMiner, which helps police and military agencies detect perceived threats by scraping

social media timelines and chat rooms. You see, that's where they're doing all this stuff. Well, the document also makes use of the term of geofenced data. Why are they surprised about this? You know, geospatial intelligence has been the fastest growing part of the intelligence community since the 1990s when they started creating social media. That's the point. We want to identify people by their political and religious viewpoints as well

as other things. You know, do they like the generals or not like the generals? You know, that type of thing. And then map their relationships to other people as well as geographically mapping them. That's what they're talking about geofencing, but it's really about geospatial intelligence. And a key part of geospatial intelligence was what they called anticipatory intelligence. That AI. To anticipate what you're going to do a pre-crime type of thing we should be very concerned at what the military industrial complex and intelligence community which is the actual government that you're not

voting for that's one of the reasons why things never change yeah there was a lot of rhetorical questions there that caitlyn john had, but that's the reality. The reality is that that is the government that is not going to change. Before we have our guest on, I want to quickly go over what's happening with the Putin putsch. And let's start out by taking a look at some of the pictures of the disaster as there was a conflict at the very beginning of this. There was aerial attacks, and the Wagner people pushed back on this. Look at this. This is the wreckage there after somebody went out to take a picture of it.

This is the remains of a lot of the planes that were shot down by the Wagner group. I'm sort of playing Ride of the Valkyries here. Yeah. Shocking images show destroyed Russian IIII, I don't know how you do it, I guess, command plane. That's a command plane that was shot down as well as several helicopters. The Wagner Group forces are said to have shot down the plane during the revolt, killing the crew. Rogozin said he regrets destroying it, but he argued that they were attacking the Wagner forces, and they did it in defense.

The aircraft that was shot down, the Ilyushin-2 22M aircraft, a valuable airborne command post operated by Russia's Air Force. And they don't have a whole lot of those. And it's totally wiped out. Along with that, they shot down six Russian helicopters, killing 13 pilots in total. They said, we regret that we had to hit assets, air assets, but those assets were dropping bombs and launching missile strikes. So it's unclear how many Wagner soldiers, if any, died in the purported strikes.

But that last clip that you see there, that is the remains of that command post plane as that was taken down. So what was this all about? He disappeared for a while and the story was just as suddenly as this all started it ended and everybody's going what's what's on with that and then uh it came out that he and others were offered uh asylum essentially in belarus ally of putin uh those who are not involved they said well you can sign up to join the Russian military. And then he speaks out. Nobody knows exactly where he is. And he bragged about how this was a master class

of how the Russians should have invaded Ukraine. Oh, so that's what that was about. He was teaching them about a master class on how to launch an invasion of his own country. I think he's about to get taught a lesson on KGBT, uh, KG, KGBT. Yeah. Uh, KGB tactics. I guess we could call that KGBT.

Uh, but he's about to get taught a lesson on that after his pride parade. It was, cause he does seem to be very proud of what he did in a different way. He said, we didn't march to overthrow Russia's leadership. The aim of the march was to avoid destruction of Wagner and to hold to account the officials who, through their unprofessional actions, have committed a massive number of errors. We went to demonstrate our protest not to overthrow power in the country. In the most cutting passage of his remarks,

Progozin said Wagner's march into Moscow covered the same distance that Russian troops could have covered to take Kiev on the first day of the war in Ukraine if only Russia's army were as well trained and as well led as Wagner's mercenaries. In other words, me. We showed a masterclass on how February the 24th, 2022 had to look.

We turned around to avoid spilling the blood of Russian soldiers. We regret that we had to hit Russian aviation. Well, is it all just bygone? And why did they turn around? Well, there's a lot of reports now in the Western press, Telegraph, many others, saying that it was Russian agents threatening to kill his family and the family of others there that caused him to turn around. That's why I said he's going to get a master class in the tactics of the KGB now.

Because, of course, their tactics, like any of these spy agencies, like CIA or Mossad or any of them, their tactics are assassination and blackmail. That's the tools of these spies that are out there. Putin is not saying anything about giving a safe passage to Progozan either. He says the overwhelming majority of the fighters and commanders of the Wagner Group are also Russian patriots devoted to their people and country. They proved this with their courage on the battlefield. And, um, but he doesn't, um, say anything about the, the minority that are there that

he has perhaps identified and going to be coming for. Uh, he said they stopped the last line and they didn't allow the fratricidal bloodshed to take place. And so he said, you have an opportunity now to sign a contract with the defense ministry and other law enforcement agencies or return to your family and friends who we didn't kill. Anyone else, he said, can go to Belarus. But he's also called Ver um, for goes in and, um, Wagner a betrayal. He said, they, the West and Ukraine wanted Russian soldiers to kill each other so that soldiers and civilians would die. So that the end Russia would lose and our society would break apart and choke on bloody civil

strife. Uh, so, um, he sees it as being initiated by the West. And why would they think that? I mean, you know, we wouldn't do anything like that, would we? Except we've done it over and over again. As a matter of fact, there was a back and forth on French television. You had a well-known French journalist, Darius Rochebin, on Sunday night, was interviewing John Kerry. And since the beginning of this is in French, I'll read you what he said to Kerry. He said, we have to judge Putin for crimes of aggression, of course. But you, the Americans, you committed the crime of aggression in Iraq.

These countries of the global south, should we judge George Bush? Why isn't Bush judged the same way? You, the Americans, you committed the crime of aggression in Iraq. George Bush, pourquoi n'est-ce pas que Bush est jugé de la même façon? Vous, les Américains, vous avez commis le crime d'agression en Irak. Et ces pays du Sud disent, mais est-ce qu'il faut juger George Bush? Pourquoi un George Bush n'est pas jugé de la même façon? Vous y seriez vraiment? George Bush? Non.

Pourquoi? Parce qu'il n'y a pas eu d'accusation à l'encontre du président Bush. Alors s'il y avait eu des abus de pouvoir, oui. Moi, j'étais contre. J'ai fait la guerre du Vietnam, il y avait des abus, j'en ai parlé, et à la fin de la guerre, il y a eu... Est-ce que ça n'était pas un crime d'agression, d'entrée en Irak sur la base d'un mensonge?

On ne savait pas que c'était un mensonge à l'époque. Tout ce qui a été produit à l'époque, on ne savait pas que c'était mensonger. Alors non, là encore, là vraiment... Mais lui mentait. Lui mentait. Lui mentait. Écoutez, je ne vais pas ouvrir le dossier de la guerre en Iran.

On a passé beaucoup de temps là-dessus. Moi, le peuple était contre la guerre en Iran. Mais les pouvoirs ont été donnés au président de faire cette guerre. C'était basé sur un mensonge. Quand on a su que c'était un mensonge, on a fait ce qu'il fallait. Je comprends ça, mais vous comprenez que pour les pays du Sud, bien sûr, la justice, l'égalité, les principes, c'est leur impression, est à double standard. Et ça pèse aujourd'hui, y compris dans le débat sur le climat. L'administration Biden, très clairement et très ouvertement, est du côté de la justice environnementale. and very openly on the side of guaranteeing environmental justice, holding people accountable.

Yeah, yeah. On the side of environmental justice. We'll save the environment, not so much any innocent civilians who get in the way. And we save the environment, of course, by dropping bombs and flying fuel-inefficient planes and driving fuel-inefficient tanks and all the rest of this stuff uh no he said um uh carrie said he says was this not a crime of aggression to enter into iraq on the basis of a lie no no no well we we didn't know it was a lie at the time problem is is that now that you know it's a lie uh do you regret this now that trump who said and and of course tucker carlson ludicrously

said this is the reason they're coming after President Trump, because he said that the war in Iraq is based on a lie. Except that President Trump promoted the liar who sold that, the liar who did the torturing, the liar who covered up about the torturing, Gina Haspel. He made her head of the CIA. So if Trump doesn't like the lies about

weapons of mass destruction in Iraq that got us into, lied us into that war, why did he promote that liar? Not only a liar, but a torturer. And so, Kerry says, yeah, I did not

agree with that. And yet he voted for it. It's a matter of record that John Kerry voted for that war. Glenn Greenwald observed, talking about the interview, he said, the complete lack of self-awareness on the part of the U.S. establishment sometimes shocks me, despite the contempt that I have for them. Yeah, that's absolutely true. And he was saying, you know, there's an impression with many people that you have a double standard. And he says, and that includes even when we talk about the debate about the climate. Well, the reality is, is that when you talk about climate change and what they say is climate change and

what they demand be done by it, they're basically giving other so-called developing countries, they're giving them a pass on this stuff. India and China do not have to have any of, according to the Paris Climate Accord, which John Kerry is so happy about, John Kerry and Obama said, we are going to self-ratify that. They're just making up the Constitution as they go along. And of course, the climate alarmists who actually believe that there is a problem, believe that it is a global problem, and they said, you're not doing anything other than transferring wealth from America and, um, and Europe to,

uh, India and China and to yourselves, because you're the ones who are making money off this, uh, the climate, uh, promoters like John Kerry. Uh,

we're going to take a quick break and we come back. We're going to be talking to Jack Lawson about civil defense manuals. That's why I wanted to get that stuff in there about this reckless war of foreign policy that's happening right now with NATO and how they're pushing everything up to the limit. We're going to talk about things that you can do to protect yourself. We're going to specifically talk about his chapter on nuclear attack, things that you can do about that. Before we go to break, I just want to say if you want to support the program, his chapter on nuclear attack, things that you can do about that.

Before we go to break, I just want to say, if you want to support the program, we're still not at the end of the month yet, and we're still not at 100%. We got amazing support last week, and I cannot thank you all enough, especially those who did matching donations on Thursday and Friday, Robert and Faye. Thank you so much for doing that. But if you'd like to support us, you can go to thedavidknightshow.com, and there you'll see all the different places

where the program is, and if you will like the program, share the program. If you would like to support us, there's all the different places where you can support us are listed there as well. You can go to Subscribestar if you want to subscribe on a monthly basis. You can leave tips there. You can leave tips at other places, and you'll see the links to all those as well as the program there at thedavidknightshow.com. We'll be right back

with Jack Lawson. The Common Man The common man. They created common core to dumb down our children. They created common past to track and control us. Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing. And the communist future. They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary. But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God.

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

TheDavidKnightShow.com A.I.T.A. Thank you. Making sense common again. You're listening to The David Knight Show. All right. We had Jack Lawson, and we lost him, so we're still trying to get him back here. But as soon as we get him back, we'll go to him. I did want to talk a little bit about what is happening with the climate MacGuffin. We have Spain publishing new guidance saying you should only eat zero to

three portions of meat a week, a week, not per day, but per week. This is a weather one, but of course. This is what they want. But, of course, they don't want us even eating things like pizza, evidently, in New York. New York pizza, famous for its own right, especially the wood-fired pizza that you find there. They're shutting that down. New York City says, well, you're not going to use wood to cook a wood fired a pizza, not gonna allow that. And if you want to still do that for people, you are going to have to

certify that your carbon emissions have been cut by 75%. You're going to have to install special scrubbers and things like that. And, um, your, uh, exhaust vents. Uh, we want you to slice. I like that. Right. Part says we did them to slice their carbon emissions from wood fired pizza by 75% or they're going to hit them with hefty fines. Well, a lot of people in New York are saying, forget about it.

Again, the response from this arrogant person who is the head of the New York City Department of Environmental Protection. There is such a thing. That's the bloated bureaucracy of New York City. They have a Department of Environmental Protection. Interestingly enough, the guy that doesn't want to have any wood-burning stoves, his name is Ted Timbers. How about that?

This is almost like it's Babylon Bee. Ted Timbers, you will not burn any timbers to cook pizza. I guess the people who are, maybe see him as a pirate, shiver me timbers. Under the mandate, restaurants who have wood-fired ovens have to hire an engineer or an architect to assess the feasibility of installing emission control devices to achieve a 75% reduction in particulate emissions.

And again, this is the type of thing that the EPA, the Environmental Protection Agency, was focused on in Research Triangle Park in North Carolina, trying to extend their control over society by coming after the boogeyman, by coming after the MacGuffin of fine particulate matter. PM 2.5. And I just played for you the last of the Mohicans there. At their website, when I did the report in 2013, I took a snapshot of their website and then they changed it. But on their snapshot of their website, DPA, talking about PM 2.5, had a picture of the Smoky Mountains. And they said, you know, this is an example of fine particulate matter. No, it's an example of a natural phenomenon, which is why it was called the Smoky Mountains as fog. And it was that way, not because of the industrial revolution. It wasn't that way

because Indians were sending smoke signals and campfires. It didn't have anything to do with that. It's absolutely ludicrous. Absolutely ludicrous. But of course, these are the same people who went out of their way to find people who had respiratory and heart issues so they could expose them to find particulate matter from the tailpipe of a diesel truck. They took the carbon monoxide out, but they passed the rest of the stuff through at 72 times the level that they said was safe, after they'd already sought out people who were likely to have issues with it. The reason they wanted to do it was because they wanted to ban it completely.

And you had Lisa Jackson, Obama's EPA director at the time, saying people are dying from this. They're not getting sick. They're dying from this. And so, of course, we've got to shut down the wood-fired pizza ovens, just like we've got to shut down meat. We're all going to die. Yeah, well, maybe we'll die if we aren't able to eat anything.

Did they ever think about that? So one person said this is a big expense. It's not just the expense of having it installed. It's the maintenance, said the restaurant owner. I've got to pay somebody to do it. I've got to pay somebody to go up there every couple of weeks and hose it down and, you know, do the maintenance. And so the arrogant reply from the New York City Department of the Environmental Protection Department,

their arrogant reply is, if someone is trying to say that putting the scrubber in changes the flavor of the pizza, they're just trying to save themselves $20,000. Why is that an illegitimate desire? Why would they not want to save $20,000. Why is that an illegitimate desire? Why would they not want to save $20,000 for something that is nothing more important than you worrying about COVID cooties? That's what this is. This is just nonsense, just another MacGuffin. And how is more are they going to have to charge for pizza again this is more focus on small businesses they don't want anybody to have any wealth creation they don't want anybody to have any businesses and about the only businesses that are left are restaurants and service businesses so they've got to go just like we saw with with the COVID MacGuffin. One of them said some business owners are trying to negotiate a grandfather clause,

calling this an unfounded mandate. Well, they're not going to allow that, right? You need to forget about grandfather clauses, and you need to go back to the founding fathers clause, you know, the Constitution and things like that. We need to go back to the principles of the Founding Fathers, not of the Grandfathers. This stuff has been attacked for quite some time, and we need to return to basic principles. One person said, and guess who this person is?

This is utter BS is none other than the king of climate cronyism, Elon Musk himself. He called it utter BS on Twitter. The Department of Environmental Protection spokesman, again, Ted Timbers, said all New Yorkers deserve to breathe healthy air, and wood and coal-fired ovens are the largest contributors to help harmful pollutants in neighborhoods. So, you know, if they get their way, they're going to come after people having wood fireplaces, of course. But they're also going to come after barbecue grills, barbecue restaurants,

but your particular barbecue grill, that's what they were talking about at the EPA in North Carolina at the time. They'll come after your campfires. They're not going to stop with diesel engines and they're not going to stop with restaurants. It really is amazing. They don't want any gas ovens. They don't want any wood fired ovens. They don't want to have any small business restaurants in New York. That's the bottom line for these marxists and so elon musk replied and said

this is utter bs it won't make a difference to climate change at all and he is certainly right about that. Okay, we're gonna take a quick break and we'll be right back We've got Jack Lawson on right now. So stay with us. We will be right back You're listening to The David Knight Show. All right, welcome back. And we do have Jack Lawson on the line now. Again, Jack Lawson's books, civildefensemanual.com. That's where you can find these, volumes one and two. He only sells it in book format, and he only sells them together because you've got to get the full picture and he wants to make sure that if you have to use them, you will be able to use them because if you don't have internet or you

don't have your computer up and operating, you'll still have the book that's there. Thank you for joining us, Jack. Good to talk to you again. Oh, it's always good to listen to you. Oh, voice of sanity in a world of insanity. Well, they got pretty crazy last week with, you know, started seeing the civil war in Russia.

And of course the consequences of that, you know, they just keep pushing, pushing, pushing. And you wonder if somebody there like Putin is going to freak out and push a button and start a nuclear war. So that's why i wanted to get you on i thought it's a great idea for us to talk about that because you have so many different chapters in these two volumes here talking about all kinds of things i was just talking about how they want to ban food for example you talk about how we can save food make sure you got water for emergencies and other things. But also, you know, there's things there like preparing for a nuclear attack. And you've drawn on the expertise of a lot of individual contributors as well as your

own experience. And you've had considerable experience as a soldier and in survival situations. But let's talk a little bit about the nuclear aspect and what individuals can do about that if something like that happens. Well, first, David, I'd like to say that I doubt any button being pushed is going to come from Vladimir Putin. I often have thought of P.T. Barnum and Barnum and Bailey Circus. I suppose the guy had nightmares that the clowns were going to take over the circus. But that's in essence what I think we have.

We have a bunch of people that are detached from the reality of what is going on. I think they have pushed and pushed push and I'm not supporting Putin. I'm just not supporting, uh, the woke people on the other side. That's right. Well, you kind of got a little bit of a Bay of pigs type of situation because Putin has now put some nuclear weapons in Belarus and then, uh, Lindsey Graham and, um, I think it was Blumenthal was with him. Uh, they, uh, come out and say, well, you know, uh, uh, just understand that if you

try to use these in any way, shape or form, it's going to be a big response from us. I mean, they're, as you point out, they're the ones, uh, likely as anything else to escalate this because they've been escalating this since the 1990s. They've been escalating this conflict. People have to understand one thing that, well, this is a complex issue. Surviving nuclear war is quite simple, actually. But our nuclear arsenal is somewhere up around 60 years old. The Russians, Chinese, and I believe the North Koreans, maybe Pakistan and France,

have been doing testing and perfecting the nuclear weapons. One thing that is clear to me now is that this is a real oxymoron, but they've actually, the other side, Russia, Russia China not so much North Korea but Russia and China have created kind of a green bomb if you want to say it it's an environmentally friendly nuclear weapon there the when I was in and went to nuclear weapons school we had it wasn't described then as a dirty bomb it was described then as a nuclear weapon but six years later uh the weapons that that i used to uh i i was putting nuclear arming packages on these things i'd sit on top of these things uh we had all this expensive

scaffolding but uh the bottom line was i had a sergeant down below handing me stuff and this missile i worked on was six foot off the floor so rather than assemble all of this uh expensive uh framework we'd put a ladder up and sit on top of the bomb and i would have to put the arming package on and take the arming package off and i'm getting a picture jack as you talk about this a dr strange love for you well you know yeah i've often thought of that only the missile wasn't going any place when i was sitting on it but I didn't have a cowboy hat either, like some pickets said. But it did. Yeah, it's a beautiful thing.

It's epoxy coated, rounded edge, about the size of a 30-gallon drum. There's a couple different kinds of them. I'm not going to go into that. What I want to get into is how people survive this if there is an exchange with what they have in their house but the long and short of the thing is is nuclear weapons there's enough when I went to school it was under the mad doctrine the mutual assured destruction I don't know who comes up with these terms. They must have people sitting in an insane asylum someplace coming up with these terms.

But it's a very accurate term. If they ever have a full exchange, it'll literally incinerate and remove us from the planet. But that's the big boom people misunderstand what would happen during a nuclear exchange and both sides have been talking about this this is what bothers me i think we're actually further ahead on the probability chart than we were during the cuban crisis yes uh we we had a president that was to me is probably one of the last good ones even though he was a democrat and hell i was a democrat back then so i don't know you know came to my senses but uh the the nuclear exchange will be preceded by something called the EMP. That's electromagnetic pulse event.

It's also known in the military as the hemp, high altitude electromagnetic pulse event. above the earth roughly explosion that will cast gamma rays out that will destroy every semiconductor that people have whether it's an led flashlight and there's there's caveats to all this but the bottom line is our entire our entire electrical grid and our entire communication system will go down that is important to understand people will literally hear a deafening silence there will be nothing there's nothing that's run by computers is going to be operating uh the the cells your cell phone might work but the cell towers will not work. So that will be presided. There will probably be six to 12 of these set off over the industrialized Western world,

and especially America. And what this will do in the hopes of the enemy is destroy our ability to respond. Yeah. On a military basis. Everything's GPS. Everything is satellite guidance systems. All the weapon systems function off of this. So what you're going to have is not only the military capability destroyed,

the Russians, after the Russian Soviet Empire went down, we had atomic energy people over there, military people concerned about their nuclear weapons falling into the wrong hands. And in the process of inventorying and talking to the Russian scientists, the standard of 50,000 volts per square meter was totally upset because the Russians said, we've developed and have EMP nuclear weapons, and this is a blast in the sky. You won't hear it.

You won't taste it. You won't smell the sky you won't hear it you won't taste it you won't smell it you won't feel it you may possibly see some sparking along the ground but this will take out everything that is electronic and we are heavily dependent on that manufacturing and the ability for us to manufacture for the military is going to go out the window. That's preceding a nuclear attack. Then I really don't believe that the Russians, I don't know about the Chinese, are going to target anything but military centers or manufacturing centers. And they know where every one of these is to the literal, within a meter of what their GPS tells them.

So the long and short of the thing is you'll have an EMP, and then you may have, you may just have an EMP, but you may have attacks on military, some political centers and manufacturing centers. I don't think they're going to be out to just kill the average American person. Yeah. But of course, taking down the power grid and that's one of the things that's worrying about, uh, North Korea, you know, uh, you don't have to, um, you know, uh, uh, close

only counts in horseshoes and nuclear war, right? Except that you don't even have to be as close when you've got an EMP. You know, if you have a situation like North Korea, I guess it's one of the reasons why it's so worrying when they shoot a rocket up over Japan. You know, is this going to be an EMP thing or what are they going to do with this? And, you know, if they were able to do something like that, that'd be a nice plausible deniability for China. Well, it wasn't us. It was North Korea that would do that. But whoever does it, or if it is done, that is something that is going to have very lasting effects as well, because some of the

things that they're going to take out are going to be giant transformers as part of the grid that are very, very difficult to replace. There's only a couple of places in the world that make these things and they have a very, very lead time for manufacturing and of course if this was a broader response and they took out the factories in germany where they make these things you can forget about it happening for a very long time so you basically wipe out the infrastructure to a large degree and then you don't even have the tools really to rebuild it because that's been taken away from you as well. So this could be something that would happen. An EMP strike would be devastating, perhaps as devastating as if there was an actual nuclear bomb that landed because now all of society has been bombed back into the stone ages and

people are going to start starving, right? It's a good description, the stone age, because that's just about what it would be yeah water systems won't run transfer transportation and distribution of food uh that's gonna stop uh it would be i don't even like to think about the nightmare that that turned into but uh let let me go to this uh people can survive this when i went to nuclear weapons school it was like, say goodbye to everybody, because if there's nuclear exchange, you're basically not going to survive it. That's the picture they painted. the newer weapons, they have, there's something in physics, and I don't want to get complicated about this, but people have to understand,

there's what's called the inverse square law. That means this, one foot from a particle of this being outside of your window, and nuclear material outside the fireballball which is about two and a half miles where the weapon hits outside the fireball uh nuclear material the decaying nuclear material which causes the gamma rays will not attach uh to anything other it's got to attach to a particle of dust in the air so if you're in your house the

simple thing for people to do is to shelter in place if you're outside the blast area there's an old saying they came up and somebody came up with called duck and cover that is critical if you're in the blast area uh 90 of the people that died in nagasaki in hiroshima if they wouldn't have been looking out the window uh when these when the shock wave hit that's 2 to 20 seconds after the burst that shock wave splintered windows and sent pieces of glass at the speed of bullet cutting pieces people to shreds duck and cover get down put your thumbs in your ears to try to keep the noise from uh acoustical trauma and put your fingers over your face get under something solid if you're in a blast area uh first is a fireball uh that's questionable whether anybody will survive in that but the odds are where they would hit there wouldn't be a lot of people killed

but the blast area uh and in addition to falling stuff you got glass splintering so duck cover stick your thumbs in your ears fingers over your eyes and wait for the shock wave to go by and you'll know when it goes by because if you've got a you're in a building when uh windows shatter uh people on trains in uh japan at the hoshima Burj, and there's a great article written by one of the foremost experts, that's Shane Connor at KI4U. KI4U means basically potassium iodide. This guy knows his stuff inside and out. He works with a group called Physicians for Self-Defensedefense but the people on this train stood up looked out the windows and flying glass shredded these people 90 of the people that die after a nuclear explosion

are outside the blast area going to die from being outside exposed to nuclear radiation. Shelter in place. If you're outside the blast area, you risk the fallout from this. And there's basically three types of nuclear explosions. There's the airburst, 3,000 to 4,000 feet over the intended target there is the ground burst which is probably two to six hundred foot above uh the intended target and then in areas where they're looking to destroy underground bunkers missile silos there's what's called the shallow ground burst. The closer you are to the ground, the closer this weapon is to the ground or penetrating the ground, the more debris it picks up and puts up into the funnel cloud. And when this happens, there's more fallout

because there's more trash up there that's going to eventually blow with the winds downrange now I would generally say we have winds moving from west to east so any explosion west of you has a possibility depending on winds and depending on rain of falling on you but people have to understand if you're in a house in the center of your house that nuclear gamma radiation that's at your window if it goes one foot it may have half the power if it goes two foot it's got a fourth of the power on and on. If you're 10 foot in the middle of your house with your family, and there's things that you have to

have, you don't have to stay in your house forever. 48 hours to, uh, probably a week on the outside, uh, depending on where you are and what the fallout, the winds are doing, you will survive this intact. You will virtually have no damage whatsoever. Now, you have to understand gamma rays are like invisible bullets. If you're outside, they're going through your body if there's fallout if you're inside your house in the center find the closest to the center of your house and preferably something that's a room even if it's a master

bedroom closet that's big enough but if it's it's like say you and your wife you get into one of these areas shut your hvac off shut your electric off to your house to keep air circulation down and good god where i live it'd be awful hot to do that but you know you you got to determine whether you want to live or not live yeah and you need a few things to to survive this with but 48 hours to a week, people have to understand that 500, and there's all kinds of complicated names to this, but they have something called a rankin, which is 500 rankins will kill you after half an hour if you're outside.

If you're 10 foot inside your house, it's going to be down to almost negligible amount of that but you have to stay in that area you have to keep dust and air circulation from happening and there's other things food and water and then what happens after you know 48 hours to a week uh is that um, the, the radioactive material that falls down at that point in time, uh, what kind of half-life are we looking at? Is it still going to be dangerous outside? It'll be so small that you can pretty much life can go on as normal. After a week, you're not going to detect much of this.

Uh, again, Shane Connor, KI for you has something simple called a nuke alert if you have this it's a small uh device that you can put on a keychain and if it gets to uh hazardous levels uh this thing will start beeping so if you have one of these you don't need a Geiger counter, which detects radiation. What you have to have is some idea of what your exposure is. And if this thing doesn't beep, you're okay. If you're in the middle of your house, you're okay. If you're in the basement of your house, you're okay. Gamma rays are the shortest on the atomic spectrum, but they're the most powerful.

But the wonderful thing about it is for every foot they travel, they quarter. So it gets down to 10 foot. You've got a negligible level. If you keep the dust out of your house, if you keep your air from the ventilation system off and it might be a miserable couple days but you have to decide what do you want to live or not of course you may not have power anyway wow that's that option may be taken out of you but that uh when we talk about ki for you potassium iodide for you uh how is that is that ki is it the number four or does he spell it out it's ki uh four is is what what it is okay the thyroid gland has a nasty habit of collecting

radiation it and your thyroid gland controls all your body hormones if you have that, it can literally incapacitate you. Potassium iodine takes the place of, it keeps nuclear radiation that's in your body, that's circulating in your blood. It keeps it from being absorbed by the thyroid gland. And so you literally pass it out when you urinate. Yeah. So you want to make sure that it doesn't get absorbed by the thing. It's going to keep it and then get cancerous and

start causing all kinds of problems for your body. That's the whole idea behind the, the iodine potassium iodine is to fill that capacity, you know, fill it up so it can't absorb anything else. And then you can pass it out. I understand. So K I, K I the number four, is it ki the number four is it ki number four or yes okay good oh yeah and there's another thing people can do you know your mama used to put tincture of iodine on you when you got a cut uh there's iodine just about any iodine solution uh you take eight milliliters of it, paint it on your arm, and your body will absorb this. On a child, like one milliliter. But the kids are much more susceptible to radiation permeating their thyroid gland than adults are. So it's very important that the first thing you do is to shelter in place.

And, uh, well, that's interesting. You know, I used to always laugh about the ducking cover because I was a kid during the Cuban missile crisis and we were in Florida and it's like, so what's this about, they want the dental records, you know, for us to stick our head at the desk, but you're, you're talking about avoiding, you know, falling into the trap. It's kind of a sucker punch. You know, you, you, uh, see this big flash out there and you're looking to see the flash

and then all of a sudden the shockwave hits you and shreds you with a glass. So that's a key point right there. And then getting into the center of the house to try to get away from the radiation is going to fall off as a square of the distance. That's the other part of it. And then just kind of wait it out. And then you look at what society is like. That's where the rest of your book comes in, right?

That's where the rest of the book comes in. That is where the rest of the book comes in because, oh my God, I mean, again, it goes back to almost every catastrophic event that can happen gets back to food water most importantly but food water medicines and a place to shelter yeah and i'm astounded with especially the younger kid they're ordering this fresh food i'll bet you the majority of these young kids have uh one day's worth of leftovers in their refrigerator. They order this stuff and, uh, they order these foods and they literally, I've got a daughter. That's right. Yeah. You don't need to get some special storable food and everything.

I mean, that's fine, but you know, you just start storing up some canned goods and things like that. Uh, yeah. And you can do that gradually and incrementally and, um, you know, and, and start preparing in that way. And, and of course, if people go to, um, civil defense manual.com, they'll see for free the chapter there about water, which is the most important thing, the thing that you can't survive that, that, that, you know, you, you, uh, must have, uh, over all other things is going to be water.

And so you've got a free chapter there. And I think if people get a sense of the way you cover water there, they get a sense of the detail and the usefulness of the information that is there. I think that's a key thing. And it's a great thing that you got it there for the most important thing, but also gives people a preview of how good this book is, how thorough this book is. The free chapter on water is, is really valuable.

This, this entire chapter I'm talking about here is surviving a nuclear explosion with what you have is also, uh, on the website. It's free for people to read. And, uh,

it's as comprehensive as it can get for the average person to understand duck and cover shelter in place. There's a few things people need to have. Water. One person needs one gallon for one day. That's the rule of three. So if you're going to stay in the house, it's you and your wife, if you're going to stay in your house for two days, say,

you're going to need in your house for two days say uh you know you're going to need four gallons of water most people don't have this most people think i'll turn the tap on well that may not happen that you're able to get any water if you can get water put it in a bucket or whatever you have to uh use for a container and take it into that area in the center of your house in addition to water food canned food simple like you said people need to have garbage bags that fit in a five gallon kale pail and use that as a latrine or a place to go potty they need lighting of some kind preferably i would not use candles because you're going to have an oxygen deficiency to some degree in your house re-breathing carbon dioxide but in in most spaces you'll last for quite some time. You need non-electronic games, cards, something to keep

your mind off of what's going on. Blankets, sleeping bags. If it's cold weather, you're going to need warm clothes. I mean, we look at things as happening at the environment we're in and the weather situation we're in. This may happen six months from now. May not happen. I don't know. I'm just nervous about the provocations that are going on in this Ukraine war, especially. Well, you know, Joel Skousen, I've talked to him many times. He always has for years, as long as I've been talking to him,

believed that our side was deliberately trying to provoke an attack because that was going to be the easiest way for them to reset society, which they wanted to do. And, of course, when we talk about mutual assured destruction, it doesn't just really apply to nuclear weapons. I think mutually assured destruction also applies to the citizens who have guns. I've said many times that the Second Amendment is they're protecting us from government right now as a deterrent, because if they go out and they start trying to take the guns from people, that's going to kick things off and it's going

to be mutually assured destruction right there. So having an armed citizenry is a check against government abuse of power, even if no shots are fired. It's a deterrent. But I think that they don't want to have that kind of mutual assured destruction. I think they believe that they can survive this in their deep underground bunkers, and they can pretty much take us out. They don't have to worry about the firearm competition, that type of thing. But let me go back to something you said there. You said you don't necessarily want for light. You don't want a candle. It's going to use up some oxygen, things like that. What type of thing but let me go back to something you said there you said uh you don't necessarily want for light you don't want a candle it's going to use up some oxygen things like that

what what type of thing would you suggest i mean uh an old style uh flashlight or something like that since a lot of the yeah now or incandescent you know it's questionable when you get down to small flashlights uh led that are in an aluminum or metal case there's a good probability they will still work most what i say and that people know is theory yeah and with all of this they know that some of this actually that will function the way they they don't somewhere somebody's tested flashlights i'm sure in it with led bulbs but uh it in a worst case condition and i've got this in the civil defense manual you can get a six to 12 hour light by taking a can of tuna with oil poking a hole in the center of the top of the lid, finding a piece of cotton or thread and forcing it down to the bottom

and letting the oil wake up and light that. Now, that's not as oxygen, will not consume as much oxygen as a candle burning wood, but it'll give you some type of light. You know, I don't know how people would spend that time, you know, where they'd be sleeping.

I imagine the mental trauma from all of this is going to make a lot of people actually very depressed over all of this stuff. So maybe a lot of people actually, uh, uh, very depressed over all of this stuff. So maybe they went sleep. I don't know. I don't think that's going to happen. I think people are going to be on edge. Another thing you may want to get in there is a radio.

That's going to give you some kind of updates from the national emergency radio broadcast system. Uh, you know, there's endless. You can put some of this stuff into some kind of a Faraday cage as well. Right. Um, radio and an led flashlight or something like that. I've got a cheap, I've got two of them, but I've got two garbage cans

that I've converted to Faraday cages. I show how to do this in the book also. Great. Uh, that's, that is a critical component to me because I have the belief that rather than to kill a whole bunch of people or do ground blasts, there probably would be an EMP. And I understand that there are Russian submarines in the Atlantic that have the capability and have these weapons on board. Uh, so, and that would happen so quickly, there would be no defense against that.

I mean, all we have to do is just shoot it off and it gets to altitude and, uh, and detonates you're done, you know? And yeah. And I understand there was a recently about two months ago i had one of my sources tell me that there was a missile launched somewhere around the bahamas that came from a russian submarine and it flew the east coast up towards greenland newfoundland i think they self-destructed the thing but i think it was a warning. I don't, I can't tell you who told me this, but I've got a lot of contacts with people and I have a tendency to believe

that this did happen, but EMP, even though it would put us in a stone age, wouldn't immediately kill a bunch of people and destroy cities and manufacturing areas and military bases. It would not be that provocative, but it would be very, very deadly as the days go on. That's right.

Yeah, just destroy the infrastructure and leave it to the people to destroy each other. That's really what you're talking about. That's right. And, uh. Yeah, just destroy the infrastructure and leave it to the people to destroy each other. That's really. That's basically what would happen. I mean, it'd be, it'd be survival by the most barbarous message you can imagine. Uh, I, I also tell people don't live in doom and gloom about this. Get some preparation done and then relax and enjoy your family uh again you know food and water medicines uh a portable a latrine of some type uh garbage bags for it a lid for it keep your water get it

all in the center of your house uh before fallout comes and uh you walk out of your house. I think over 99% of people in a fallout would survive if they do this, but there doesn't seem to be a lot of interest in, uh, federal agencies to educate anybody in this. There's none that I really know. They don't do anything. They, they,

and this is the way it's been from the very beginning. There's a book called a Rock, and the subtitle was How the Government Plans to Defend Itself and Let the Rest of Us Die. And it talks about deep underground bases and stuff, but also there was a place close to where we used to live in North Carolina. They called it Big Hole. At the very beginning of that book, it talks about that. It was an AT&T facility and how they had these AT&T facilities that were deep underground.

They had them on a shock absorbing. Everything was there, the plumbing and everything was on, uh, you know, shock absorbing stuff to make sure that didn't rupture. And, um, and they still had that thing active when we were there, they told everybody it was an active, but one day my wife and, and kids decided out of curiosity to go down the road to see big hole. And as they're going down the road, came over the speakers, you're in a secure area, turn around and go back.

So it's like, oh, okay. I thought they told everybody this thing was done, but it's not done and they're still there. So, you know, they have that type of thing. And, um, uh, the, uh, you're right. We don't need to worry about it, but we can prepare. It's like everything in life. We all know that ultimately we're going to die, but we need to enjoy life while we're here.

And we need to prepare for what is going to – there's going to be a catastrophic situation with all of us where we've got to stand before God one day. So think about that. Prepare about that right now. That's the ultimate preparation that you need to do, the fact you're going to stand before God. But if you're okay with that, then make some preparations, but enjoy living. And that's the key thing about it. And it can be an enjoyable thing to make those type of preparations, just like you can enjoy yourself when you do any kind of work and create any type of thing. And so you're thinking about building something and creating something as a way.

I think people ought to approach it. Yeah. Uh, again, people cannot let this type of thing consume them. They have to understand just what you said, you know, enjoy your family, but there there's a word that goes in front of that. Prepare. Yes. Enjoy your family. But there's a word that goes in front of that, prepare. If they don't prepare, and I think the vast majority of Americans, I see older people, all they're interested in doing is going to wine tasting festivals,

rebuilding a 1960s muscle car, driving around, trying to imagine that they're 18 years old again uh they're they're not interested in even in hearing hearing this stuff yeah but the probability to me if something happening is is of something uh absolutely uh would be unimaginable for people uh you and i are talking about uh they they just don't want to uh they don't want to look at the reality of things that's right that's right yeah and so you want to prepare to make sure that it reminds me of the joke uh the guy says uh i want to die peacefully in my sleep like my grandfather not not screaming in terror like the rest of the people in his car you know so you want to make sure that.

I always laugh when I hear that. Not screaming like the passengers. That's right. So, you know, instead of, you know, while you're collecting seashells, you might want to also collect some canned goods and some other things and a little bit of information while you're doing that. Yes. And I've got a great recipe for something called pemmican, which people can make in their kitchen. You could live on this stuff for, well, the Indians lived on it all winter. It was created by the Cree and the Mi'kmaq Indians

up in around the northern border of the United States and Canada. And they made this to survive when they couldn't fish. And I've got a great reference, uh, great, uh, by the way, people should not be cooking in these areas when they get into these areas either. Don't try to start a fire. Don't try to cook food canned food you'll get by for 48 hours uh possibly a little longer than that but you will survive and uh the pemmican if you make a batch of this pemmican it'll get you through this you know it's uh the water that's something everybody should be collecting while they can

collect it in cases of bottled water get all this stuff in the middle of your house shut your hvac system off like you say the electric will probably be off but uh uh sit the thing out everybody uh can survive probably with the exception of uh people in the fireball area which is two and a half roughly two and a half miles uh don't look at the explosion it's like a thousand tons of magnesium flares have you ever seen a magnesium flare go off you know what i mean it's bright bright white light oh yeah and uh people can survive this it's it's it's quite simple yeah so and you know it's interesting jack as we're having this discussion and as we see this ukrainian thing this this madness that's going on with the military

industrial complex pushing and pushing uh there's a movie that's coming out uh Oppenheimer and the creation of the bomb. And Nolan, who directed this, said, yeah, as people are coming out, it's really quiet. And he said it's something of a horror film, you know, that this really kind of comes across. And that really truly is the case. One of the things I look at is uh are these maps and i have no idea if they're accurate or not and of course even if the maps of what they think would

be uh targets for uh enemies to nuke in the country even if that is accurate uh who knows if their missiles are accurate so you don't really know you i'm sure their missiles are accurate yeah yeah but and the problem the problem another problem we have in addition to a 60 year old arsenal is these hypersonic sonic weapons that we've utterly failed at uh they've built them tested them they failed but the russians and chinese have developed these things and they will defeat any kind of system. As far as a delivery vehicle for a nuclear weapon, if it gets into ground burst, these things will get through. And they have multiple warhead, faster re-entry vehicles, and better and more efficient weapons.

Unfortunately, we are where we are, but people don't have to live in doom. Duck cover. Cover your ears with your thumbs, your eyes with your other fingers. Get in the center of your house after the blast has gone by and hunker down. You know, it's an interesting thing. Um, I remember the story about, uh, Mazda and, um, how they survived. Uh, they were, uh, a going concern really even before they got into manufacturing cars, they had some other type of equipment that they were making, but they were there in Hiroshima and they wound up surviving because they were on the other side of the mountain from where the

bomb hit, you know, even, even though it was pretty close. And so they were kind of in the shadow, um, blast wise of that mountain. And so there's a lot of different things like that. That might be why you want to take a look at the map and see where the different targets are and see how that relates and see if there's any natural barriers there. But key thing is don't look out. And I, and also, you know, when we talk about this, the, the chapter that we've just been talking about, that's available for free at a civil defense manual.com along with the

one on water, the two key things right there, Jack has made that available for free. Uh, the stuff about Pemmican,ican, detailed instructions on how to make that yourself. And that is something that, you know, we have natural disasters all the time. As you're talking about making sure you've got water stashed away for this. I grew up in Florida, and so every time there was a hurricane warning or people were worried about that, it would always fill up the bathtub, things like that, right? So, you know, I'm to setting setting aside water and storing water for some kind of a natural

disaster but um it's not always going to you know we're not always going to have that kind of advanced notice and so that's the key thing to prepare a lot of this stuff in advance and it doesn't require a lot of preparation i've got say, if you fill a bathtub up, tape the drain, because most people's drains, a good share of them, the bathtub won't hold water. But get it out of their most bathrooms on the outside of a house. So you're going to have radioactivity. Water by itself, even if it's softened, has sodium in it.

If it's unsoftened, it has calcium and magnesium. These are particles that the radioactive gamma rays will attach to themselves. So that becomes radioactive. If you get out afterwards, wait a week before you drink any or try to use any salt water because the half-life of radioactive salt water is five days.

So wait for a week before you use it because any, any substance in the air, in the water that is other than oxygen, carbon dioxide, nuke, uh, the nuclear radiation will attach itself. So that's really important. And that's the kind of detail that you've got in your books, you know, like I put water in the bathtub, but you've got the information about be careful, you know, if you're doing water softening or something like that, you're going to have some, uh, uh, sodium in there, maybe some potassium, depending on what you use to solve, to, uh, uh, soften your water.

That's going to be there. And the, uh, uh, the radiation is going to attach itself to those types of particles. That's why you're, you're the, the information that you've got in a civil defense manual is really first quality in terms of detail. Yeah, David, and real quick, I think before this election, you're probably going to see another pandemic at some point. In addition to everything else that goes on, I've got a chapter on how to survive biological infectious disease and the protective equipment needed. It's got stuff you can buy. It's got stuff you can make. That's great.

And I think that when this comes, it's probably going to be something that isn't as nice as the last one. Yeah. Yeah. It might be the real thing this time. Maybe we need something protection from a pathogen, not just from politicians. So it's always great talking to you, Jack. A great book folks.

I highly recommend it. Do something for yourself and your family to help you survive. Civildefensemanual.com. Thank you, Jack. Great talking to you as usual. Thank you. Thank you.

Bye. All right. Before we run out of time, folks, I want to say thank you to a couple of people who have contributed on rock fan. Uh, thank you,

Ben. I appreciate that. And AudiMRR, Modern Retro Radio, he says, thank you very much for the tip. That's very kind of you. He says, Modern Retro Radio will be running its Indie Artists Only weekend, July 14th through 16th. And David Knight's original music will be included in the rotation. Well, thank you very much. He told me about that, and I sent him all the stuff that I had at the time.

So if you want to go hear the music without us talking over it, you'll be able to find that and a lot of other stuff too. Independent artists. And he's going to be featuring that July 14th through 16th. Well, just before we go, I'll just mention one last thing that was in my stack of climate stuff here. Britain's incompetent net zero elite are tearing up society with no backup plan. Now that is the plan. And that is the problem. You know, these people are, uh, it is a depopulation

plan. I have a clip I'll play for you tomorrow from Paul Ehrlich, just to underscore how this has been about depopulation from the very beginning, from the very first Earth Day in 1970. They were talking about depopulation. And, of course, they were saying we're going to go into a new ice age, so we've got to have depopulation. Then it became about global warming, so we had to have depopulation. And now it's about other things with the environment and all the rest, so we've got to have depopulation. They always get back to the same thing. That's why I say it doesn't really

matter what their MacGuffin is. They always keep coming back to the solution is to kill you. Because, you know, Gaia is a special sentient planet that just happened by chance. And the human beings are the virus and we've got to get rid of that virus. That's where they always are. They have no backup plan. Well, they have a backup plan for themselves. That's what you need to understand. But there's no backup plan for us, so you better take care of your own backup plan. That's it for today's program. Thank you for joining us.
