As the clock strikes 13, it's Tuesday, the 29th of November, year of our Lord, 2022, day 992 of the emergency of the new world.
Starting point is 00:01:56 And it is a strange new world, isn't it? We now have pharmakia pushing the idea that they need to vaccinate fetuses. Fetuses. Babies unborn. Although they deny their humanity, they want to destroy their bodies for profit. Now we're going to talk about the bizarre, pedo-satanic entertainment industry and government as well. And then, of course, they have combined now both the climate MacGuffin and the pandemic MacGuffin. They have found a virus that is thought out in the Arctic. How convenient. We'll begin with that. Stay
Starting point is 00:02:41 with that. Stay with us. well they claim that they have now found a zombie virus it's been reanimated they said after 50 000 years in the siberian permafrost the first thing i thought of was the thing john carpenter's a thing with kurt russell i don't know what it is, but it is weird and pissed off, right? Now, they're trying to tell us that because of global warming, you're going to have viruses at a long loss that are going to be reappearing, reanimated. They have named this the Pandora virus. Oh, how original.
Starting point is 00:03:43 Yeah, it opens up that box. Oh yeah. We've been, we've been under the Pandora virus for about 992 days. They locked us down. They let out the, they let out the, the, the demons of, uh, lockdown and tyranny, medical martial law. They let all that out of the box and they locked us into the box. It's pretty amazing what is still going on in China. I mean, it's ramping up and I've got video of them spraying unknown substances by drone on protesters. Yeah, it's just, they want to kill us. It's just that simple. they want to kill us. It's just that simple.
Starting point is 00:04:25 They want to kill us. They're weird and they're pissed off. We didn't make them angry at us, but they really hate us. Don't they? So the Pandora virus, they said they pointed to global warming as the ongoing risk. We have now got a unified MacGuffin theory. Albert Einstein would be proud, wouldn't he? He's always looking for a unified theory of the universe.
Starting point is 00:04:52 Well, here's their unified theory. We're all going to die because of global warming and because of the viruses that it exposes. So be very afraid. Not of the viruses. Not of the global warming. Be afraid afraid of these people this is what they said due to climate warming irreversibly thawing permafrost is releasing organic matter frozen up to a million years most of which decomposes into carbon dioxide and methane oh no it's going to accelerate the whole process here.
Starting point is 00:05:26 Yeah, I mean, that's part of the thing. These people who say, well, we've got to get rid of carbon dioxide. We've got to dim the sun. They're trying to starve us. You take away carbon dioxide and you dim the sunlight. What are you going to do? You're going to cut down plant growth, which is the foundation for life. The problem that they have is that plant growth has increased because there has been an increase in CO2. There really has. It hasn't
Starting point is 00:05:54 increased the temperature, but there has been an increase in CO2 and that's caused an increase in green plant life. So let's kill the green plant life. They want to kill the farms. They want to change the composition of the atmosphere. We've got to get rid of nitrogen. Now, nitrogen is a big thing. Carbon dioxide, that's not a big component of the atmosphere, but it's necessary for life. These people don't want life. They're suicidal. Suicidal murderers is what they are. Anyway, so it's going to decompose into carbon dioxide and methane, further enhancing the greenhouse effect. Part of the organic matter also consists of revived cellular microbes
Starting point is 00:06:40 as well as viruses that remain dormant since prehistorical times uh so you know zero hedge as they finish the story uh beware of rotting siberian bears yeah maybe you don't want to go out there and reanimate the mammoths huh no look uh as many people pointed out in terms of questioning whether or not there's really even any such thing as a virus or whether that is an arbitrary construct to explain something that they can't observe you can't see viruses that's why you have the pcr test that's why kerry mullen said fauci doesn't know anything he thinks you can look in a microscope if you got enough power and you can see a virus. You can't.
Starting point is 00:07:27 That's why he created that thing. But he also pointed out when Fauci used it for the HIV thing, HIV-AIDS connection, he said correlation does not prove causation. And the fact that you can ramp up this PCR test, he said, you can find anything if you magnify it enough. Anything. We all have everything in us, pretty much. Kerry Mullis was kind of a, I don't know, Buddhist.
Starting point is 00:07:58 Is that the people who think that, you know, everything is in everything else? He says, that kind of gives you that there. But yeah, you can, if you ramp it up, you can find, you can find teeny, infinitesimally small particles of anything. And that's what they're doing with this. And so you go back and you look at that and say,
Starting point is 00:08:14 well, you can't see a virus. You can infer that it's there. And we've had a lot of different explanations for subatomic particles and things like that that happen, right? We had the Niels Bohr model that we all learned where you have a nucleus that has neutrons and protons and then circling it are electrons and so forth. That's been a very useful model to predict things.
Starting point is 00:08:42 But then you get quantum mechanics and all that just goes away. It gets very, very strange. You have particles that are at great distance from each other, reacting at the same time without any observable connection between them. So we don't really know what's going on, subatomic stuff, and we don't know what's going on with the viruses. And there have been questions, even going back to the legendary 1918 pandemic of flu, did people die with a bacterial flu and pneumonia, or did they die from it? Did they die from a flu virus, or did they die from a flu virus or did they die from bacterial flu?
Starting point is 00:09:28 A lot of people have questioned that. And they said, and did they die since a lot of this seemed to have started with the military, the U.S. military, that was vaccinating people from meningitis and they claimed that it was contaminated? So was that the genesis of this thing? Was it a bacterial contamination that began with a vaccine campaign and then spread to other people? And then they identified people dying with this. Oh, that's the flu, and it's a new strain of flu, and it happened organically.
Starting point is 00:09:59 It had nothing to do with the military, just like this COVID stuff, right? And there's a lot of questions here, but look. The bottom line is this article that's being put out there is just the equivalent of the military industrial complex, the intelligence community, and the pharmaceutical industry getting on their broom and wiping and writing out in the sky, surrender, Dorothy, that's what this is really a surrender. There's just no hope for you given to our pandemic MacGuffin and our climate
Starting point is 00:10:36 MacGuffin, because they're now merging together and the permafrost, but it's not just that. I mean, they, they really, really do want to kill us robots in san francisco could be allowed to use deadly force uh again this came out on thanksgiving but
Starting point is 00:10:53 i didn't have shows i haven't talked about this yet yeah they do want to kill us ed 209 from robocop and that was was when Zero Edge put the story up. They used a picture from RoboCop at 209 where they have the crime has gotten so bad in Detroit. At LiveScoreBet, we love Cheltenham just as much as we love football.

And so they come in with a fully autonomous robot, you know, and they goes into the boardroom and he says, so watch this, he goes over and he picks up a gun and he goes, but down the gun and he says, Hey,
Starting point is 00:12:33 and I say, puts down the gun. He says, you have five seconds to comply, but down the gun, he's like, whoa. And everybody starts clearing the room out in this thing. Uh, levels on like uh you know both of his arms have a 50 caliber machine guns and just slices the guy that's the opening scene of that technology gone wrong but hey let's try it in real life right robots in san francisco using deadly force uh not clear whether or not they're going to be using this under supervision of humans
Starting point is 00:13:05 or whether they'll be able to make these decisions autonomously like at 209 San Francisco's rules committee unanimously approved a version of the draft policy that robots can be used as a deadly force option when risk of loss of life to members of the public or officers is imminent and outweighs any other force option. Have they never read Isaac Asimov's robotic series where you got the laws of robotics? Number one, you will never do any violence to a human. That needs to be kind of hard-coded in this stuff, but the future that these people want is um has no rules in it there's no rules for robots and there's no rules for anybody especially them they are the rulers
Starting point is 00:13:56 and they'll use the robots to rule us look this is talked about a long time ago i thought it's the most interesting part of hug de Garis' book, The Artilect War. He said people are going to realize, and he was an artificial intelligence expert, and he knew all the leading guys in the field, and he had worked in the field quite a bit. As a matter of fact, China hired him for a while,
Starting point is 00:14:25 and then they kicked him out because he said some political things. But he believed, he's an atheist, he believed that artificial intelligence was going to succeed and that they were essentially creating a godlike intelligence. That's his phrase. And he believed that there was a reasonable chance that this would not be benevolent ray kurzweil always takes a pollyanna approach ray kurzweil who is head of um that division now at google uh inventor of a lot of different things electronic keyboards and other things like that but ray kurzweil always is very
Starting point is 00:15:04 optimistic oh it's just going to be because it's going to be so smart it's going to be benevolent and hugo de guerra said well no you can't really say that's going to be the case and so he took a viewpoint says you know there certainly is a i don't know what the probability is but there's a chance that it's going to be malevolent and so so this godlike intelligence could wipe out humanity. That became an ethical issue for him. Should I continue to work on this? And he would ask people in scientific communities when he would lecture, if you knew that artificial intelligence,
Starting point is 00:15:39 and just substitute for that any technology these people are working on, right? Whatever it is, nanotech, artificial intelligence, robotics, any of this stuff. If you knew that this technology was going to turn on humanity or be very destructive, would you do it anyway? And the people that ask that question, they'd always say yes. Always say yes. That was the thing to me when I was an engineer. It's like, well, I don't think I want to work for somebody who's developing weapons
Starting point is 00:16:12 because I don't know how they're going to use these weapons. You remember the story of Nobel who invented dynamite, and I think it was his brother who died, but anyway, they thought it was him, and they ran an obituary and they gave him a perspective of his life that he didn't really had thought about you know the fact that the dynamite was being used as a weapon of war and how many people it had killed and so he used his remaining years to set up the nobel peace prize which has now been taken over by the leftist Marxist Satanists that take over everything. We build it, they take it over. That's what they want to do to our children as well. They
Starting point is 00:16:51 refer to us as breeders, we build the kids, but they will take them over as their own, and they take over the institutions that way as well. Anyway, when he talked about the Ardilek War, the part that I thought he was spot on about, I don't think they're going to create a godlike intelligence. I think if they even get close, God will actually step in. But I don't think they're going to create a godlike intelligence, but they do have a lot of technology. Another part of his book, The Artilek War, was that as people started to realize the technology and
Starting point is 00:17:25 again you can say any technology could be artificial intelligence it could be any of these things right and so could be genetics robotics artificial intelligence nanotech any of these technologies as people realize what's going to be done they start to push back they revolt and so these elitists who have control of the technology uh essentially retreat they retreat to their uh their orbiting space stations as you've seen in elysium as jeff bezos wants to build and so forth and then they wage war on the rest of us who remain on earth uh he thinks billions will die in that type of scenario. So, uh, there's that evidently the people in San Francisco haven't read his book or
Starting point is 00:18:12 thought very much about this. They maybe haven't seen Robocop either, but, uh, the original version did not mention robots until the Dean of the city's board of supervisors initially added that quote robots shall not be used as a use of force against any person. Now see, maybe he did read Isaac Asimov stuff, right? However,
Starting point is 00:18:36 the, uh, the board of supervisors amended his addition and they replaced it with a line that could give robots the authority to kill suspects. If a life public or police was at risk you see what they did the same thing that uh the church committee and the pike committee you know they came together they did the fisa uh bill foreign intelligence surveillance act and what they did was they reversed that that was supposed to be something that's going to prohibit them from spying on everybody and they reverse it so these people look at this and he
Starting point is 00:19:08 says we're not going to use robots for this it's like oh robots use of force yeah let's do that and so uh he eventually decided to accept the change they won him over he said there could be scenarios where deployment of lethal force is the only option. There we go. You know, I remember the beginning of this lockdown stuff. In March of 2020, Scott Adams, the guy who does the Dilbert cartoon. You know, a lot of us, well, not a lot of us, actually. But some of us were very angry about these lockdowns being imposed.
Starting point is 00:19:48 Scott Adams was scared to death. Maybe he was listening to Alex and Mike Adams. I said, you better be afraid of the politicians, right? And I even used the analogy of King David. king david i said you know when king david uh in his pride decided he was going to number the people of israel god sent a god you know comes sends a prophet to him and says okay you know here's your choice it gives him a multiple choice judgment uh i can um i can bring people against you i can bring a plague. It gave him several different options. But, you know, when he was, he looked at the plague and he went with the plague because what he didn't want was to have people coming after him.
Starting point is 00:20:37 And I use that analogy at the beginning of this lockdown. I said, I'd much rather deal with a disease if it's real, even if it is a man-made disease, even if it is enhanced. I'd rather deal with a disease than deal with people in positions of power who are going to come after us. I agreed with King David. But anyway, um, so, so the, uh, evidently, uh, these guys are, they've just gone off the rails. And so will the robots. In addition to granting robots, the ability to use deadly force, a proposal also authorizes them for use and training and simulations, criminal apprehensions.
Starting point is 00:21:22 You're under arrest and you know, they're going to be shooting people with tasers and the rest of this stuff too, right? Critical incidents. Exigent circumstances. Yeah, use it to beat up the homeless, just like you've seen portrayed in the film Elysium. Executing a warrant. Or during suspicious device assessments. Yeah, our worst nightmare. Robot police.
Starting point is 00:21:50 Newer models have an optional weapon system. The Quineticu Talon can be modified to hold a lot of different types of weapons. And they have a weaponized version of it that this currently being used by the U S army. Uh, so you can add grenade launchers, machine guns, you know, get those 50 caliber machine guns, just like add two Oh nine, put them in the hands of, uh, you know, the arms have become 50 caliber machine guns at live score bet. We love Cheltenham just as much as we love football, the excitement, the roar and the chance
Starting point is 00:22:25 to reward you that's why every day of the festival we're giving new members money back as a free sports bet up to 10 euro if your horse loses on a selected race that's how we celebrate the biggest week in racing cheltenham with live score bet this is total betting sign up by 2 p.m 14th of march bet within 48 hours of race. Main market excluding specials and place bets. Terms apply. Bet responsibly. 18plusgamblingcare.ie
Starting point is 00:22:49 Like I said, they really want to kill us. They really view us as the enemy. And I put out on social media when I saw this, and it went live this morning, the British Army is going down to a 200-year low. They're only going to have, total, in the British Army is going down to a 200-year low. They're only going to have, total, in the British Army, 72,500 soldiers. They're reducing it down to that.
Starting point is 00:23:13 The lowest that it's been since the Napoleonic Wars and the rise of the British Empire. No longer a force to be reckoned with. But what I thought was interesting is, is that if you look at the numbers, 72,500. And remember that Joe Biden wants to increase, increase the IRS by 80,000. He wants to increase the IRS by more than the total size of the new UK army, the new British army. So what does that tell you? What does that tell you about who they see as the enemy?
Starting point is 00:23:54 Is the enemy another country that's going to be coming after them? Or is the enemy within? Is that what Biden sees? He wants an army of IRS agents. So does he see the enemy as us? Pogo, he has met the enemy and he is us. Who are they going to go to war against? Well, you and I.
Starting point is 00:24:20 And it's going to be a financial war. Davos calls itself the World Economic Forum. They're planning on a financial war against us. That's their plan. Financial attack, the Great Reset, to take everything from us, to make us poor. So we have to scramble just to stay alive on a subsistence living, or to put us in a kind of prison, high-tech prison without walls
Starting point is 00:24:51 to control everything that we do. So yeah, only 7,200 people. How are they going to use the IRS, by the way? We look at this. Well, this new army of IRS agents, it's going to be bigger than the British army, is now warning Americans that you better report any money that you get that's more than $600, right? And we've talked about this, you know,
Starting point is 00:25:18 that that was going to be reported by the banks to the government. But now they've got something where they want to entrap you. You didn't fill out your 1099-K, your 1099-K. We're going to list everything, every payment that you got that is $600 or more, and they can compare it to the list that the bank sends them. And, oh, you didn't get this right. Now we've got you, right? you didn't get this right now. We've got you right.
Starting point is 00:25:46 It's about self-incrimination. So the IRS is always, this is about surveillance. It's about coming after political enemies and it's about self-incrimination. And this is where the $600 a year. Are you going to see the Republicans try to stop any of this stuff? No, no, they're going to be fine with this. Uh, they're not going to be there to help you. So it's got to be, you got to fill out that form.
Starting point is 00:26:10 If you don't fill out that form now, they've got something to come after you with. And they're going to have an army of IRS agents to go through. And, you know, the computers will be comparing the stuff, of course. But the army of IRS agents will then go out after it's been flagged by the computer. Well, we got this list from them. They got this one over here. Now we're going to, you know, come after you and audit you and see what else we can turn up. So, um, there you go. That's going
Starting point is 00:26:36 to be, uh, I guess we're going to need an army of people to do that. Um, uh, you had Babylon B come out with a satire on black Friday. I didn't look at that. I just took a break from the news last weekend, but I thought this was great when I came back to it, a huge black Friday sale, the store is going to sell everything for the price it was before Biden became president. I mean, that's such a perfect satire because I mean, that's what we're talking about. You go back and you look at the price, how many things have gone up? 25, 50%. What are you seeing with a black Friday sales, right? You're seeing stuff at, at least, uh, as, as much as that. And in some cases, oh, that's out there, whatever the price was before Biden became president, that's what we'll let you have it for.
Starting point is 00:27:27 And, uh, they talked to a store manager supposedly at a small store. He said, we have to get people in the door so we can stay in business. At least until Amazon runs us out of business in a couple of months. You know, it's kind of interesting when you look at Walmart, how did they get so wealthy? Slave labor in China to manufacture stuff. How did Amazon get so wealthy? Slave labor in every country at the retail level to ship the stuff, the warehouse people
Starting point is 00:27:57 who, uh, Jeff Bezos doesn't even give them enough time to go to the bathroom. Yeah. Just, just bring a bottle with you and you can do it at your, um, at your workstation. Yeah. That's slave labor. Um, said, um, as they were talking about it, uh, the idea behind the sale was to fuel America's nostalgia for a time when groceries didn't cost $500 a week and the country wasn't fighting a proxy war with Russia.
Starting point is 00:28:29 But I love the way they ended this thing on Babylon Bee. At publishing time, interest in the sale plummeted after the store revealed that mask mandates would be the same as they were before Biden became president. You know, when Trump and Fauci were running the country instead of Biden and Fauci. And that really is appropriate to put in here because those lockdowns were targeting the small businesses as much, if not more so than Amazon. When you look at the consumer economy, you have all the financial papers. We're still pushing this idea,
Starting point is 00:29:11 well, we think sales are going to be up for the holidays 8%. Like, where'd you come up with that? It's like what I said before Thanksgiving. You know, everybody's going to the AAA, the American Automobile Association. Tell us what you expect travel to be. And so they were telling, well, we think that travel by airplane is going to be 99% of what it was in 2019.
Starting point is 00:29:35 And we think it's only going to be 3% off of that. It's going to be like 97% for automobiles. And I said, where'd they get that information? How do they know that? They can't possibly know that. They don't have a model that predicts that. We don't have models that predict the weather. As a matter of fact, Karen's brother came to see us on Thanksgiving weekend.
Starting point is 00:30:01 We were telling him, Karen went back, she took a snapshot. She was looking at her texts. She said, I sent him this text, you know, about five days or so before he came. And they're predicting snow. We had very nice weather. It was warm. It wasn't cold.
Starting point is 00:30:17 No snow. And we're all talking about that. Yeah, if you look at the weather reports, they're changing it constantly. You know, they can't predict it a day in advance but they will um tell you uh if it's now raining they'll quickly update it if they were predicting that it wasn't going to rain or they'll tell you as they see the clouds forming they'll update their their prediction and tell you exactly when it's going to get there or whatever it's like okay well it's off a little bit, but hey, they knew. No, they don't know. They don't know. They don't have models to predict the weather. They don't have
Starting point is 00:30:48 models certainly to predict what the weather is going to be like in 50 years. And nobody at the American Meteorological Society, when I attended it, most of the meteorologists did not buy climate change because they're struggling to try to figure out whether the weather is going to be two or three days. And nobody had any answers. They had hundreds of different models. And they're all working out. Well, none of them worked. None of them worked in a satisfactory way.
Starting point is 00:31:18 So does the AAA have a model to say how people are going to be traveling and how many people? No, they don't. The media loves to have an expert source because they want to tell you in advance, just like the weather people want to tell you, get you excited. Oh, look, this is what the weather is going to be. Well, this is what the travel conditions are going to be like or the business conditions are going to be like. And they have no idea. But the press looks for an expert who will come out and boldly predict this.
Starting point is 00:31:48 Like the farmer's almanac or something, right? And if they can find that, well, hey, that was my source. They said it. They're the expert. So don't look at me. I just found an expert who said something sensational. And I can report that. And people tune in and listen or read or whatever.
Starting point is 00:32:09 So they predicted an 8% increase in holiday sales this year. And they're trying to maintain the pretenses. But you've got camera crews are going around looking to see what is happening in the various areas. And they're saying, well, you know, we're not seeing anything here as they go from place to place. They said they're trying to get some background footage. You know, you want to get some B-roll when you're doing your man on the street stuff. And so Reuters says, well, usually this time of year, you struggle to find parking.
Starting point is 00:32:42 This year, I haven't had an issue getting a parking spot, said somebody with a retail advisory group. It's a lot of social shopping. Everybody is only looking to get what they need. There's no sense of urgency. At LiveScore Bet, we love Cheltenham just as much as we love football. The excitement, the roar, and the chance to reward you. That's why every day of the festival we're giving new
Starting point is 00:33:05 members money back as a free sports bet up to 10 euro if your horse loses on a selected race that's how we celebrate the biggest week in racing cheltenham with live score bet this is total betting sign up by 2 p.m 14th of march bet within 48 hours of race main market excluding specials and place bets terms apply bet responsibly 18 plus gamblingcare.ie but then bloomberg goes out and puts together a compendium of what shopping circumstances looked like from city to city they said activities light in one san francisco mall uh target and zara stores were mostly empty there was no line for the Santa Claus. Crowds were thin in the late morning in the Stanford Town Center Mall. K Jewelers was empty. Only a couple of people waited at the checkout line at Forever 21. Just a few were in line for purchases at Barnes & Noble. Then they
Starting point is 00:33:57 go to Chicago, report at Chicago at a Target store in Chicago. The parking lot was barely half full at 9 a.m. Shoppers were greeted with $3 ornaments and discounted Christmas trees, and the store seemed calm and relatively quiet. The Macy's in Stanford, Connecticut. Neat, orderly, maybe a little bit too neat and orderly on a day that's associated with shopping chaos. Well, looks like we can't say the R word, recession. And they don't want to talk about that, but that seems to be what they're reporting. And yet the cashless society is something that the media is talking about. Oh, we need to have the cash.
Starting point is 00:34:37 And they don't mean it from the sense that you don't have any money, that people are, you know, the businesses are closing, people are getting laid off, that type of thing. No, they mean the cashless society in terms of CBDC. So as this article, Lou Rockwell, says we're on the brink of a dramatic change. We're about to abandon the traditional system of money and accounting and introduce a new one. The new one will run on the blockchain, which means that we'll have an almost perfect record
Starting point is 00:35:07 of every single transaction that happens in the economy. It raises huge dangers in terms of the balance of power between the states and citizens. Like I was just telling you, if they've got a computer record of everything that you get, the $600, and then you've got to fill out the 1099-K, and they get to check these two. Well, now we got you over a barrel.
Starting point is 00:35:29 And so as this is happening, you have the World Economic Forum running their world government seminar, right? The World Government Summit is what it is. And I took a snapshot of this because this person who is the moderator over there on the left said to the participants, so, are you ready? Are you ready for the New World Order order what do we need to make that happen now she just got that's how the whole video starts you can see that the first couple of seconds
Starting point is 00:36:12 and look at what youtube did uh this is they they put a fact check on the people who are planning the New World Order and put up a video talking about how they're going to, yeah, go ahead and do that. I'll play just the beginning of that. But before you play that, look at this. YouTube puts up a fact-check thing there with Wikipedia. It says, New World Order. The New World Order is a conspiracy theory
Starting point is 00:36:43 which hypothesizes a secretly emerging totalitarian world government. And these people spend a half hour talking about that very thing and how they are going to be the ones to do it. And what do they need to change in order to institute a new world order? So yeah, go ahead and roll that if you've got that. There we go are you ready for a new world order i think uh becky and i'll summarize what i said go ahead and kill that uh yeah he says you know what we got this situation we got great technology to do that we just have to bring the people around you know we're still got this mindset of nations and borders and things like that. So we've got to get rid of that, but we have the technology to do the new world. So YouTube says that's just a
Starting point is 00:37:34 conspiracy theory, fact-checking it and showing Wikipedia because, you know, Wikipedia is such an authoritative source. But, you know, Elon Musk is now putting Wikipedia fact checks on Twitter. Oh, and I've got some real interesting news about Elon Musk and mRNA vaccines. I'm going to give to you coming up. But yeah, YouTube is, this person wrote this article, said as recently as a year year ago i'd be labeled a conspiracy theorist and get locked up as a twitter jailbird for claiming some cabal of banksters economists and government leaders is planning a new world order for everyone along with a government controlled digital currency to empower it but now it's just table talk and the media is openly
Starting point is 00:38:22 talking about the people who want to do it. Those who are planning, I said. At LiveScoreBet, we love Cheltenham just as much as we love football. The excitement, the roar, and the chance to reward you. That's why every day of the festival, we're giving new members money back as a free sports bet up to €10 if your horse loses
Starting point is 00:38:40 on a selected race. That's how we celebrate the biggest week in racing. Cheltenham with LiveScoreBet. This is total betting. Sign up by 2 p.m. 14th of March. Bet within 48 hours of race. Main market excluding specials and place bets.
Starting point is 00:38:53 Terms apply. Bet responsibly. 18plusgamblingcare.ie We're all too happy to share their thoughts about how they're going to do it. They're that confident that it's going to go down.
Starting point is 00:39:02 So, you know, when we talk about this, it has become a, one of the ways that they deflect criticism of this is to say that if you are talking about globalism, you're talking about the Jews, okay? And so you got Anti-Defamation League saying, well, you know, that is code word for the Jews.
Starting point is 00:39:27 And it's not. Now, take a look at all the non-Jews that are involved in all of this stuff. And that's one of the reasons I despise this kind of anti-Semitism tropes that are coming out by Kanye and by Nick Fuentes and these other people. Because it is a divide and conquer strategy. It's the same thing that we had, you know, when we had incidences of police violence that were condoned and trained by the federal government. In most cases, they were putting out the new training shoot first curriculum.
Starting point is 00:39:59 That's what one instructor at a state police academy said. This is a shoot-first curriculum. I'm not going to teach that. He resigned. He'd been teaching for decades. And so we had some fundamental things that were wrong with the institutions. But you had this back and forth. People, Watson would do it.
Starting point is 00:40:20 Well, look at this. They claim that black people are being jailed and shot more than white people. That's not true. We got more white people that that's happening to. And the reality is, is that the absolute numbers of white people are higher. The percentages of black people, though, were higher than it was for whites. And so you got the two groups saying, well, I'm the bigger victim. No, I'm the bigger victim. It's like, shut up and stop fighting with each other and change the way the police are operating. You can't come together and change the system if they got you fighting each other. And that's what this is all about.
Starting point is 00:40:59 This is what Kanye and Nick Fuentes and Alex and all the rest of these people are doing. Here's an example of it. You had Kanye and Nick Fuentes and Alex and all the rest of these people are doing. Here's an example of it. You had Kanye and Nick Fuentes going on their celebrity tour. And they go on with Tim Pool. Luke Radowski is also there. And this happens. It's been extremely unfair to you. Who is they, though?
Starting point is 00:41:17 We can't say who they is, can we? I don't use the word as the way I guess you guys use. It is them, though, isn't it? I mean, because when you think about it, consider it. In 2018. What do you mean it's not? What do I mean? Like, okay, so how about, are you leaving?
Starting point is 00:41:37 Are you afraid of the press? Kanye gets up and leaves. He's gone. I'll say it right now. You guys want to bring that stuff up and then think we're not going to have a conversation you think he's going to come in here and say
Starting point is 00:41:52 here's my pain, here's my suffering, I'm going to say I hear you and then he's going to say, and it was Jewish people and I'm going to be like, okay, but don't you consider I'm not going to do this, I refuse yeah, well you get the idea, right you're going to use my reductionist term. And let's just understand, like I said yesterday, let's not become what we see the left in.
Starting point is 00:42:12 The left puts everybody in a box based on the group they assign you to. We need to look at people as individuals, right? And we need to understand who the individuals are. And if you start making this a group thing, you're going to miss what's really happening. And you're going to, most importantly, you're going to have people fighting each other. Look, the answer to all this is not Kanye. He's out there saying, well, you know, we need to focus on being Christians and all this kind of, I don't know what that guy is about. I mean, before all the pandemic stuff, he was doing these, these, you know, revival meetings
Starting point is 00:42:45 or something, you know, going from city to city. And when I saw pictures of it, it looked to me like they were worshiping Kanye, not Christ. He put himself at the center of all this stuff while he was married to a hooker who became famous for sex tapes, sold pictures of her body. That's what his wife is. And he said, look, you know, Trump said some very horrible things about my wife. And it's like the mother of my children. You didn't understand what's going on? You didn't talk to her about that?
Starting point is 00:43:17 Maybe he did. Maybe that's what the divorce was about. I don't know. And I don't care. Bottom line is he hasn't made that clear. And the bottom line is he hasn't made that clear and the bottom line is that if he understood Christianity he would understand that God deals us deals with us as individuals not as members of groups he
Starting point is 00:43:36 would understand that we are all of one blood all nations have been made of one blood we have God sees a distinction between nations, tongues, and tribes. You can think about it as borders, as languages, and as cultures. But we're all humans. We're all the human race. The difference is which way we're racing. Are we racing to God or away from God? That's the issue.
Starting point is 00:44:04 That's the Christian perspective that Kanye doesn't have. If he's going to focus on individuals, he is no better than the ADL, which says, well, if you're white, you're a devil, essentially, right? You focus on one group, you make them the demons. And then people use that to get us into a civil war. But they'll make a lot of money as they head to the apocalypse off of all this stuff. They're no different from the Davos people who are willing to, the real globalists and the UN, who are willing to burn everything down because they're going to get their stuff out of it.
Starting point is 00:44:41 And these people in the alt-right that are pushing this racism are no different from the ADL, the flip side of that, the flip side of it. I won't have anything to do with any of that stuff. So anyway, when we look at what is happening with this, it is going to come, as I pointed out, very, very quickly, very, very quickly. They're going to do it the same way that FDR confiscated gold when he did that. And we're going to have to understand that, um, anything that's online, anything's on a blockchain is going to be surveilled by them. Uh, as he says, central bank, digital currencies,
Starting point is 00:45:23 it becomes something global planners talk about openly on their world forums as a fact of the immediate future, not some faraway horizon. The big thing that we need to understand is what they're capable of, what they're technically capable of, and what they're morally capable of. And we need to understand the time frame is short. Because as I pointed out years and years ago, I said to people, I said, you know, they're going to ban cars. Before we had any of that. Do you believe that? You know, at an auto, big auto show of people who, it was a long, I can't remember the title of it, Long Star Auto Show, I think, in Austin, Texas. And people would come with modified cars and all this kind of stuff.
Starting point is 00:46:12 Hundreds, maybe a couple of thousand of them. Huge, huge show. And so I went around with people who were showing their cars, and I said, do you agree that they're going to ban cars? Oh, yes. Are you concerned about that? No, it won't happen in my lifetime. And that wasn't old people saying that.
Starting point is 00:46:33 There were a lot of people, everybody thought it wasn't going to happen in their lifetime. A lot of them under 20 thought it wasn't going to happen in their lifetime. It's kind of the same type of thing you see from Hezekiah, right? He has, the way his story ends, some people come from the Babylonian Empire, and he's so proud of all of his wealth and all of his military installations, and he shows them everything.
Starting point is 00:47:06 And then Isaiah comes in and says, you know know they're going to take all this stuff and they're going to turn your sons into eunuchs and slaves and they're going to take every you showed them all of this stuff they're going to steal it and they did you know next year but hezekiah was like well good it's not going to happen in my lifetime now look at these people they're all suffering from the hezekiah was like, well, good. It's not going to happen in my lifetime. Now, look at these people. They're all suffering from the Hezekiah delusion. They, first of all, don't care about their kids, right? Don't care what's going to happen to their kids. Well, that's okay. It ain't going to happen to me.
Starting point is 00:47:36 I'm fine with it. I'm not going to do anything to stop it. So, in my opinion, says this writer, such safeguards are, as one person was saying, well, you know, we have to have the safeguard we have to have is a digital constitution of human rights. He says, well, something like that is even less likely to protect everybody's privacy than a FISA warrant system, uh, which was used to do it. He says, when I first read about the big black box that was being built by the NSA in Fort
Starting point is 00:48:04 Meade, Maryland to collect and store all that data, I never believed that FISA would be respected carefully enough to prevent snooping into everything you've ever said and written in digital form. Well, you know, the Utah data center, so big, the NSA's data center in Utah, so big that it used more electricity and more water for cooling than most of the cities out there. And they did it in the desert where there wasn't a lot of water. And people were complaining about it. And I said, well, okay, I understand water is an issue. You should complain about this big facility that's using water.
Starting point is 00:48:39 But you understand why this thing is so big? They're keeping a record of everything that everyone says or does anywhere with any of this stuff doesn't that bother you forget about the i understand the water issue and that is an issue the bigger issue is at live score bet we love cheltenham just as much as we love football the excitement the roar and the chance to reward you that's why every day of the festival we're giving new members money back as a free sports bet up to 10 euro if your horse loses on a selected race that's how we celebrate the biggest week in racing cheltenham with live score bet this is total betting sign up by 2 p.m 14th of march bet within 48 hours of race main market excluding specials
Starting point is 00:49:23 and place bets terms apply bet responsibly 18 plus gambling care.ee that this is something that is you know storing everything for everybody when i talked to william benny interviewed him he said you know former technical head for the nsa he said like they've got all the stuff they could they if if there was anything about russian collusion with trump they would expose it they don't have it they would have all that information. So they have everything, and they'll release just what they want to use as a weapon. So, yeah, we talked about what's happening to small businesses.
Starting point is 00:49:56 41% of small businesses can't pay their rent this month. That has gone up. It was 30% in September, 37% in October, now 41% in November November when things should be improving towards Christmas, right? Notable that it is 57% of beauty salons can't pay the rent. 45% of gyms, 44% of retail, and 44% of restaurants. When you look at this, beauty salons, gyms, retail, and restaurants, what were those businesses? Those are the ones that Trump said
Starting point is 00:50:32 were non-essential and had to shut down. Those are the ones that he came for. As I said, it's a service business. That's all that we got left. As Americans, if you want to be an entrepreneur, it's basically service business. And they went after that. They were non-essential under Trump. And I said, that word bothers me more than Hillary Clinton's deplorable
Starting point is 00:50:56 because that has a weaponized attack associated with it. And so the ones that survived, the ones that were in the best financial position, the ones that survived, they're now starting to go under now with the inflation that kicks in because of the massive trillions of dollars that Trump kicked out there
Starting point is 00:51:19 to pacify people under lockdown. Making matters worse, this occurred during a quarter when money should be coming in and rent delinquency rates should be decreasing, but they're actually going up. And they looked at quite a few businesses. They looked at 6,326 small businesses. That is a pretty big survey. And I'm going to say just one more thing before we take a break here.
Starting point is 00:51:46 You know, you got Robert Kiyosawa saying the economy is dying. Here's his tweet. He says the economy is dying. The Fed, Federal Reserve, is incompetent. The next bailout will be trillions in pensions. Hope is fading. I bought more gold and silver Bitcoin. He said, gold is at 1700. I predict 3000 in one year. Uh, now this is what he did in, um,
Starting point is 00:52:15 May of 2020, right? So he missed that prediction. Uh, they said silver at 17 predict 40 in five years bitcoin at 9800 predict 75 000 in three years pray for the best prepare for the worst well he may have missed those projections there but i still think that those are the most important things regardless of what the valuation is in this arbitrary ephemeral fiat currency right? When you look at gold and silver, that's actually money. The other stuff is an arbitrary measuring unit that is constantly fluctuating. And it's part of a con game, frankly. So anyway, as I say all the time, I think your best, you know, one of the best things that you could do about the coming control structures is to have money in gold and silver. Because CBDC, they've, again, always played this game in terms of what is the value of gold and silver relative to this arbitrary thing we call the dollar.
Starting point is 00:53:22 It's constantly manipulated. And, of course, they manipulate the value of gold and silver relative to the dollar. They manipulate the dollar by printing it, uh, you know, all that kind of stuff. But now it's about the CBDC. It's about the central bank digital currency.
Starting point is 00:53:36 So again, I'll just point out, uh, Tony Arterburn, um, a great friend and a friend of the show. And he has set up davidknight Knight dot goal to take you to his business. Wise Wolf dot goal and let you know that I sent him before we take a break.
Starting point is 00:53:50 I want to say thank you to take a quick break. Eric Peter is going to be joining us in about 10 minutes at the top of the hour. I want to thank Angus Mustang. Thank you very much for the tip guard goal Smith. Thank you guard. Appreciate that. I said,
Starting point is 00:54:03 thankfully my programming comes from God and gives me free will right thanks for the great information david in particular thank you for the fantastic thanksgiving special thank you appreciate that uh great sale at the website as well yeah we've got our black friday thing um we we were just going to have it through the thanksgiving weekend but then we had problems with a flyer that the people needed to verify us so that couldn't send the flyer that the people need to verify us. So that couldn't send the flyer out through most of the weekend. So we've extended it, uh, not just for cyber Monday, but through this week. And, uh, we're not going to extend it again after that.
Starting point is 00:54:34 I'm going to play those types of games, but, um, you know, that's, that's where it is right now. So, um, we've got 15% off, I think is what we've got. I don't really run. Yeah. I don't really run the store stuff. I got too much stuff to do on my plate. Anyway, uh, by the way, guard Goldsmith and, uh,
Starting point is 00:54:49 the Knights of the storm, uh, and it's Jason Barker, uh, angry tiger and some others. They they've set up a discussion group and they're going to have, um, uh, guard Goldsmith joining them this Saturday. Uh, and it's kind of an ask me anything, a guard so you can get to know guard. I think that should be a very good program. So keep an eye out for that. I retweeted that in case you need to find them.
Starting point is 00:55:11 It's on my Twitter. And so you'll be able to see where that is. And one more thing before we take a break. Travis's wife is having surgery today, having a gallbladder removed. She got very sick and they took her to the hospital, and they're removing her gallbladder today. So we really would appreciate your prayer for her, for Travis' wife. We're going to take a quick break, and we'll be right back.
Starting point is 00:55:38 Stay with us. Thank you. and now the david knight show you know i was going to play uh the other one that i did that was um somewhere in my memory and uh there's an interesting scene in there that I was questioned about. I'm surprised that I didn't get any comments. I played it yesterday. Maybe people weren't watching it. But there is a, this Christmas scene and everything. And then there's a shot in there with a guy that's got a crowbar in his hands. He's kind of hitting the crowbar in his hands as he's walking towards something.
Starting point is 00:57:10 And my family saw this and said, what was that about? And I said, well, that's a song from Home Alone. It was a little Home Alone reference that I found there. So anyway, I don't know. I was going to play that when I hit the other one by mistake. Let's talk a little bit about the procedure. Do you remember that? I played that a couple of weeks ago. I'm not going to play it again for you. It's very, very disturbing, very powerful animated film of an abortion procedure. And Kevin Sorbo, the actor who narrated that, was talking about that.
Starting point is 00:57:40 It's an animated video. It's very short, but it exposes the violent nature of abortion. And he was talking about that in the current state of our culture. He said he'd been vocal about abortion and about Christian education. For the last decade, he said, it's a road that I never thought I'd be going down. It's a door that God opened to me that's been a blessing in more ways than one. Yeah, you know, I think many of us, once we get to a certain age can say that
Starting point is 00:58:05 about certain things. Um, I never had any aspirations to be on air or to talk or any of this stuff. Um, it's, uh, I, I look back on, it's like, how in the world did I get here doing this? I do not like public speaking, believe it or not. And it scared me to death when I had to do speak to a large crowd. Uh, you know, this is different when I'm sitting here in this room, talking to you, talking to a camera. Uh, I guess I could get accustomed to that. Uh, but, um, you know, I had planned on being on the other side of the camera. But, yeah, it's kind of strange how God moves us in different ways and opens different doors. But he said the procedure, again, as a summary, in case you didn't see it,
Starting point is 00:58:56 a medical professional who quit his job, he was brought in as an ultrasound guy, and he didn't know what he was coming in for. And then he witnessed a baby being torn apart limb by limb and he saw it up close and it still gives him nightmares. But he talked about that. He wrote about it. And so these people animated it and they had Kevin Sorbo narrate it. He said, they sent me the man's story and I read his story and it made me cry, reading what he had been forced to witness because he didn't want to be a part of this. He describes exactly what he saw with this baby trying to hide from this doctor with his forceps ripping off one arm, then a leg, then another arm and watching the baby just die and the heartbeat stop. He said the short film is produced by L-O-O-R.
Starting point is 00:59:45 This is, by the way, something to look out for. A soon-to-launch streaming service. I'll be looking out for that. He says it's an incredibly powerful short film. He said it should be viewed by every human being. He said we need every single person in the world, pro-life or pro-choice. At LiveScoreBet, love cheltenham just as much as we love football the excitement the roar and the chance to reward you that's why every day of
Starting point is 01:00:13 the festival we're giving new members money back as a free sports bet up to 10 euro if your horse loses on a selected race that's how we celebrate the biggest week in racing. Cheltenham with LiveScoreBet. This is total betting. Sign up by 2 p.m. 14th of March. Bet within 48 hours of race. Main market excluding specials and place bets. Terms apply. Bet responsibly.
Starting point is 01:00:33 18plusgamblingcare.ie To see this. To wake up to the horror of what we've done over the last 50 years. You know, when I talked about this, I said, isn't it a shame? The Republicans ran from the abortion issue. It was something that was something that they have used as a wedge issue for the longest time. And they were proud about how dedicated they were to it
Starting point is 01:01:00 until the unexpected happened and the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. And then they went back scrubbing their websites like that pathetic shill running as Republican Blake Masters in Arizona, you know, running as fast as he could from that issue after, oh yeah, I want to ban it in all circumstances, this murder. Oh no, I didn't mean to say that. What if instead of focusing on politicians and focusing on political parties, we focused our money and our time and our effort on issues, right? This film, if instead of a billion dollars going to the Senate campaign fund just on one side, instead of that, instead of giving money to the RNC, instead of giving money to Mitch McConnell, what if people gave money
Starting point is 01:01:55 to pro-life organizations, like a lot of people have done with pro-Second Amendment organizations, and they've gotten results from that? If you focus on it issue by issue, people who are passionate about that issue, who will advocate for that issue, that's very powerful. We need to have a replication of what's going on with the NRA when it comes to life.
Starting point is 01:02:17 And there are organizations out there. They just don't get any money because everybody's given their money to the Republicans. And then we need to have some organizations that are going to fight this medical martial law, fight the public health dictatorship. Right? But that ain't going to happen either. I'm going to talk to Eric Peters when he comes back.
Starting point is 01:02:39 And I loved his take on the election. You can sum it up in the Charlie Brown cartoon, uh, the meme where Charlie Brown wants the Lucy's holding the football, tease it up for him to take a kick and he comes running up and she always pulls it away. He always goes flipping backwards. That's the metaphor for the election. So why don't we not do that?
Starting point is 01:03:04 Why don't we, and people are still, oh, look at what's happening with Carrie Lake and all that. Forget about Carrie Lake. She's just a grifting politician. She's not going to change your life. She's not going to change anything. We need to focus in a different way. We need to be the ones that are going to, we laugh at Fauci and these people saying,
Starting point is 01:03:27 well, you know, yeah, the vaccine didn't work, so have another one. You know, that's insanity. Continuing to do the same thing over and over again. Well, continuing to put all of our trust in politicians and in Washington and getting things changed there and giving them money and supporting, and getting upset and fighting over the election, maybe we need to think about doing things in a different way. So he said, we need every single person in the world to see this. He said, I'm really dismayed at the indoctrination I see.
Starting point is 01:04:00 It's really unbelievable and pathetic that we have brainwashed three generations now to say that this is okay. It's really unbelievable and pathetic that we have brainwashed three generations now to say that this is okay. It's murder. People are so desensitized to the murder of another human being, it's unbelievable what we're doing. He also said the violence in the short film has a powerful impact and it can open people's eyes to the horrors of abortion.
Starting point is 01:04:23 That's absolutely true. We need to use the power, the visceral power of film to portray the truth. I can talk to you about it, but I can go over and over again talking about this, but it's something like that short film and putting it out. Just like I said to my wife when she was involved in a pregnancy counseling thing, I said they need to focus all their money and they need to put it into making better ultrasound. This is 42 years ago. You need to show people what's happening.
Starting point is 01:04:57 Do it with ultrasound. Well, that animated film shows it better even than the ultrasound they have now. We're going to take a quick break and we're going to connect with Eric Peters and we'll be right back. Stay with us. Thank you. ¶¶ and now the david knight show all right and joining us now is eric peters his website is epautos.com and and he focuses on freedom. And to have freedom, we have to have mobility. So he does a lot of reviews about transportation, what is happening, how it's being taken away from us, shutdown, private transportation. He also has a lot of practical reviews on cars,
Starting point is 01:06:38 and so we want to talk a little bit about that as well. He's got one that he's working on right now. He just told me when I was off the air. But I want to begin. Thank you for joining us, Eric. Oh, thanks for having me on again, David. Great to have you. Let's talk about this article. You got Panem in process. What is that about? Well, it is about basically the Hunger Games, which a lot of people will be familiar with. The book was very popular and so was the movie about a dystopian future in which people are herded into provinces controlled by a capital city, and their freedom to move from one province to another is greatly restricted.
Starting point is 01:07:13 And, of course, everybody's hungry except for the people in the capital city who have plenty to eat. And I found something very interesting going on in the U.K., and I think you're aware of it as well, where they're attempting to institute kind of a beta test of the Hunger Games over there in the old city of Canterbury, where what they're doing is creating zones around the capital, and people will not be permitted to freely move in between the zones. Instead, they'll be expected to walk or ride a bicycle or use government transportation, or they might be allowed to use what they're going to call
Starting point is 01:07:49 like a concentric ring that's outside of the whole periphery that makes getting to anywhere extremely difficult. And, of course, it's all being done in the name of curbing pollution and for the sake of saving the planet. Yeah, and people drive a little bit more. Yeah, well, ultimately, yeah well you know ultimately yeah you know if you look at it from that if you if you assume that that's their actual intention you would say well wait a minute this is going to result in more pollution because it's going to result in
Starting point is 01:08:12 more congestion and all of that that's not the objective the objective is as in the hunger hunger games uh to herd people to corral them to limit and restrict their ability to go anywhere to however far they can walk or pedal a bicycle. That's right. Yeah, that's why I said for the longest time, you know, YouTube called their smart city test up in Toronto. They called it Sidewalk Labs. And so that's because they're going to have you walking on the sidewalk and living on the sidewalk. But, yeah, this thing in Canterbury, I talked about it briefly.
Starting point is 01:08:42 You've got an excellent article laying it all out. I talked about it briefly a week or two ago and, you know, what was happening in Canterbury, I talked about it briefly. You got an excellent article laying it all out. I talked about it briefly a week or two ago and what was happening in Canterbury. I think they did something like this in Belgium or another European place. They've already started doing this. And it's the, again, restricting people's movements. And I think, Eric, this goes back to geospatial intelligence. The thing that the Internet has really been focused on, or should say the people who funded the Internet, the venture capitalists from the NSA, from the intelligence community and others, working with In-Q-Tel and the rest of the stuff in the late 90s when the Internet became practical. It's like, all right, we need to be able to use this to not only monitor what people are saying and thinking, but we need to be able to map them and see what is happening with their traveling. And so this is one way to come in.
Starting point is 01:09:30 They've got the climate MacGuffin saying, oh, it's all about the emissions. No, this is about micromanagement of your movements and recording all of your movements, isn't it? It is. And all the pieces come together. Electrification, that agenda, the electric car, ties into it because these electric cars are electronic, and they're connected to the hive mind, if you want to use that term, and their energy is dependent upon a centrally controlled source, so as to make it
Starting point is 01:09:56 that much more easy for them to control your ability to get around. That is, to understand all of what's going on, you have to understand that's what this is all about. Yeah. And this is something that is really rapidly rolling out in the UK, all these different things. They're trying all these different schemes. They're attacking cars because cars are not as much of, uh, not as ingrained in the UK as they are here.
Starting point is 01:10:21 Uh, we have bigger distances. And so, you know, it was, um, uh, something that was far more important for us. We have bigger distances, and so it was something that was far more important for us. We didn't. Well, they got smaller distances. They have a lot of public transportation controlled by the government. And so cars were not the essential fundamental thing
Starting point is 01:10:36 to the British that they are to us, but it's rolling out quite a bit there. So you have this example here. Bristol is now going to put in a nine-pound-a-day charge for older cars, and they have just example here. Bristol is now going to put in a nine pound a day charge for older cars, and they have just started it. And again, saying this is about emissions. It's not about emissions. It's about omissions.
Starting point is 01:10:55 They're trying to omit things out of your life. So it's going to be about $10 a day to use certain roads, just because you've got an older car. And they're coming after the people who don't have that much money, right? They're going to leave the newer cars. Hey, if you spent $60,000, $70,000, $80,000, $90,000 for a new electric car, we'll leave you alone. That's fine.
Starting point is 01:11:16 But these poor people who've got an older car, oh, we're going to have done them pretty hard. At LiveScoreBet, we love Cheltenham just as much as we love football. The excitement, the roar, and the chance to reward you. them pretty hard. Cheltenham with LiveScoreBet. This is Total Betting. Sign up by 2pm 14th of March. Bet within 48 hours of race.

Starting point is 01:11:50 Yeah, it's interesting how elitist the left has become. That's one facet of this. And the other is I expected this sort of thing to happen, and I think it's going to happen here as well, because they have to close the, in Airfinger's quotes, loophole of people having older vehicles, especially older paid-for vehicles that they're not debt-inserved to, in order to, to use Cass Sunstein's term, nudge them, if they can afford it,
Starting point is 01:12:14 into one of these $50,000 and up electric cars. That's right. Yeah, and of course, you know, it follows the lead of what Sadiq Khan is doing in London. Does that sound like a Star Trek villain or something? It sure doesn't sound like a prime minister of the United Kingdom. Yeah. Well, that's Rishi Rich. I said there's something fishy about Rishi. But Sadiq Khan, he's been a villain for quite a while.
Starting point is 01:12:39 And he's created these ultra-low emission zones. And they charge you or ban you in some cases. But if you do go in, you pay even more than $10 a day. You're going to pay $15 and up. This is the same guy who flew on a jet to attend that conference, the recent G20 conference. And you've got to wonder, again, if they really believe in their shibboleths that the climate catastrophe is imminent and that we just got to do something about carbon dioxide emissions, what kind of a psychopath would then get on an airplane that produces more carbon dioxide in that one round trip than you or I probably caused to be emitted over the course of an entire year of driving?
Starting point is 01:13:21 Oh, yeah. Yeah, the hypocrisy is just stunning with these wealthy people. I mean, you know, the plane, jet travel jet travel you know every month there's another conference somewhere and and they're all jetting back and forth but then you know when you go to uh their most recent one at cop 27 they're telling us to eat bugs while they're having hundred dollar uh steak medallions um and did you catch the piece in the washington Post the other day about that where they were essentially trying to groom kids into you know eating grasshopper powder and mealworms oh yeah oh yeah that's that's being pushed and you know you're a bad person if you don't eat that right
Starting point is 01:13:55 that's a different way of looking at you are what you eat right we think of that from a nutritional standpoint but they think of it from a virtue signaling standpoint, don't they? Yeah, it's astounding to me the way they have succeeded in manipulating people into embracing, to welcoming their own diminution, their insurfment, their impoverishment. Yeah, you know, it's a suicidal thing. It is, it is. And, you know, when we look at these ultra low emission zones and how they're going to tax compliance with it, Sadiq Khan says he wants Singapore-style toll roads. This is why I've always opposed toll roads. They were brought in by this Marxist in disguise, Tom Tillis, in North Carolina when I was there.
Starting point is 01:14:41 They'd never had any toll roads before that. I'm proud to say Tennessee is one of only about 15 states that has zero toll roads. I'm very happy about that. But we'd never had any in North Carolina until Tom Tillis got in, and he was somebody that they leapfrogged over when they got a majority in the House in North Carolina for the first time since the civil war,
Starting point is 01:15:05 the Republicans leapfrogged him over a guy who was a real Republican. And he brought in the toll roads that were going to be operated by a foreign company in Spain. And then, uh, they, you know, he was successful at that and a few other things.
Starting point is 01:15:18 And they put him in as a Senator. And now he's doing a lot of things as Senator that are unrepublicanublican or not about small government or freedom. He's opposed to all those different things. But I said, you know, when you look at these toll roads, that is another way to monitor and to control people and to make it difficult for people to be able to afford to have a car. It's always been about the cars. You go back and you look to the very first Earth Day and you got these radical hippies out there screaming, we got to ban all cars.
Starting point is 01:15:51 And I was like, I knew it was coming. I knew it. I just, again, I was hoping it wasn't going to come in my lifetime. You know, like I was just talking about as a guy. Of course, it does come. It's been close to the chest for a long time and they would use shibboleths such as emissions at first. Then when they solve the emissions problem and you know when that when that
Starting point is 01:16:07 was a legitimate problem meaning an air quality problem pollution problem they then very subtly and very oily change the definition of emissions to encompass carbon dioxide which of course has nothing to do with pollution at all and we're able to successfully manipulate the public consciousness into equating carbon dioxide, the inert gas that plants need to produce the oxygen that we breathe, into something analogous to what fouled the sky in Los Angeles in 1970. And I've got to give them credit for the effectiveness of their propaganda.
Starting point is 01:16:37 Yeah. Oh, yeah, absolutely. I knew a guy who was fighting all of this green agenda. He'd worked for the EPA from its inception, and he retired and fought them because they had changed it from fighting pollution to trying to control people's lives and to use this whole green agenda. Forcing renewable energy, shutting down things that are working before we've got anything else to replace it that's working, paying no attention to the cost. And so he was fighting them on that. But, you know, they made it about pollution, but then they pivoted to their agenda to control people through the grid and other things like that, the grid that they are working very heavily to shut down.
Starting point is 01:17:19 So it's not about what they say it's about at all. And when you look at, you talk about carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide has increased. The temperature did not go up concurrently with it. But what we did have, unsurprisingly, for anybody who knows what's going on, you had the greening of the earth. So now we got to dim the sun by injecting particles in the stratosphere, they say. Sure. Yeah, you know, ultimately, the car is the way that the average person can get away from these micromanaging, planning, control freak people.
Starting point is 01:17:50 Historically, it's been the means by which average Americans, you know, blue-collar people, working-class people, could get out of a filthy, dirty, crime-ridden city and move out to a farther-away place where they could perhaps afford a single-family home and a safe neighborhood for their kids to grow up in the planning elites cannot stand this they want everybody herded into some kind of a province that's controlled by the capital city you know that that that whole hunger games thing is actually you know quite uh correlative to the situation that's developing in this country oh yeah yeah all the way down to the uh the the crazy weirdos on television you know i've got yeah we had sam briton who just committed a felony by stealing some lady's luggage on his plane flight.
Starting point is 01:18:33 I guess he wanted the dresses inside. I'm kind of an eccentric guy myself. I don't have a problem with people being strange up to a point. My bone to pick with these people is that they posture as friends of humanity and benefactors of the poor, but they're really some of the most vicious, sadistic, and cruel people that you can imagine in terms of the effects that their policies, which they're never honest about, will have on average people. Oh, yeah. And I think those two things are connected with each other.
Starting point is 01:19:00 There's something about people who are just obsessed with their appearance and other things like that that doesn't work out well for us. And I don't think you should put someone like that in charge of nuclear waste. It's just too into himself, you know. I'm a wrong-thinkful person, but when I look at that individual, I see somebody who's in need of some pretty serious psychological therapy and probably shouldn't be on the loose at all, let alone in charge of anything having to do with nuclear stuff. Yeah, that's right. But of course, you know, even though he committed a felony, I expect nothing to come of it because, uh, you know, just take a look at Hunter, you know, they're not going to, they're not going to expose anything that anybody did, no matter how it, I think, you know, Hunter just expecting that at some point in time,
Starting point is 01:19:41 the lithium battery is going to catch fire and he's going to destroy all the evidence. I think that's what he's banking on. If we just run this thing out long enough, the lithium battery is going to destroy all the evidence. Maybe that's what it is. Well, and it's a safe bet. But it has helped to foster this extraordinarily corrosive cynicism, which is understandable.
Starting point is 01:19:58 People understand that there are rules for thee and rules for me, right? The system is profoundly broken. There is endemic hypocrisy. Justice is not served. And the only people who get away with things are the rich and powerful and everybody else. You know, they're held to an entirely different standard. That's right. Yeah, you were talking about cities, you know, and how... At LiveScoreBet, we love Cheltenham just as much as we love football. The excitement, the roar and the chance to reward you. That's why every day of the festival,

Starting point is 01:20:45 excluding specials and place bets terms apply bet responsibly 18 plus gambling care.e cars were able to get us out of these cities that were dirty and that's been a long-standing thing you know thomas jefferson said cities are a threat to the health the wealth and the liberty of man and so we've always known that and so as soon as people could get cars where they could commute to where they had to work at the job they were all over were all over that. But my entire life, I've heard these urban planners and these climate people, they joined forces and said, well, you know, we've got urban sprawl and we got to stop that. And I said, no, it's good. That's a good thing. Just build the roads. We'll take care of it from here. But, uh, you know, I remember seeing the CEO of Lyft was actually by education.
Starting point is 01:21:28 He was an urban planner. Yes. And he had a paper that he had done in college talking about how the most evil thing that man has ever invented is the automobile. And the best thing that man ever invented was the city. And I thought, wow, how upside down his worldview is. But that is the mentality. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:21:52 And that has been the object of this crusade, which has been going on for at least 50 years. And now it's coming out into the open. They're actually seeing what they've had in mind all along before they would couch it in things like emissions and mileage and all of that. But now they're just blatant about it and say, we want to get rid of cars. And they're actually pursuing and imposing policies designed to achieve that. Yeah. And adding taxes now, so much so that in the UK, the press is saying, you know,
Starting point is 01:22:20 they're so eager to do what you and I have always said is going to happen. All right now,'s a free ride you can charge your car for free you know if you want to wait a long time to charge it you can charge it for free uh and there's no road tax on any of this stuff i said well you know that's not going to last and and so now they're saying you know we're going to start putting in these taxes and they're so high that now you've got the british press is doing tables and saying well with this new tax that they're going to add and the fact that if you've got the British press is doing tables and saying, well, with this new tax that they're going to add, and the fact that if you want to get it charged in a reasonable amount of time, you got to pay for it. Uh, how does that compare even with a high cost of, um, you know, fuel, petrol and diesel as petrol as they call it in the UK, even with that, uh, they're looking
Starting point is 01:22:59 at and say, maybe this doesn't make any economic sense anymore. And it's only going to get worse. And then as we've seen already in California, hey, we've got a problem with the grid because we've been shutting it down. So even though we've only got a small percentage of people who have EVs, and even in California, let's stop and not charge them because we can't burden the grid. So they're going to enforce that. They're going to stop. Yeah, we're right on the razor's edge, and my hope is that people are going to become aware.
Starting point is 01:23:24 Enough people will become aware in time enough to call a halt to this. And also, I wanted to go back for a moment just to this business of the toll roads and forcing people to pay twice. You know, we already pay every single time we put fuel in our vehicles. We pay one of the most regressive and disproportionate taxes that there is. But, you know, I actually don't have a big problem with that because, you know, that's kind of a use tax and it's anonymous. What they want to do is impose these tolls that are electronic and that are tied directly to you as a person and which will debit your credit card or your bank accounts and also have the ability to track your movements that way. So it's something that is very sinister relative to the motor fuel tax.
Starting point is 01:24:04 I agree. And that always has been my main objection to it. And that is the privacy intrusion. I remember in the early 1990s when they started rolling these things out and in Holland, they pushed back on it, you know, because they started having these, well, you don't have to stop and pay somebody in cash at the toll booth. We don't want to have cash and we don't want to have toll booths. So you can just zip through and we'll track it for you, you know, and you get your little ID thing and we'll track all that stuff. And the people in Holland said, uh, at first they pushed back
Starting point is 01:24:32 against this. They ultimately capitulated, but at first they pushed back. And the reason they pushed back Eric was because they said, well, we, they were very jealous about their privacy at the time. And, uh, cause this is early 1990s and people, you know, it was just nothing except in a dystopian sci-fi film. Could anybody imagine what they're doing to us today? But they said, I know we remember how that worked when in World War II, the Dutch government was obsessive about getting information and keeping information on everybody.
Starting point is 01:25:04 And they had it on these little three by five cards. And they were so packed that when the Nazis invaded, they didn't want the Nazis having information about people's politics, about their religion, about other things that was all on those cards. And so they tried to set fire to them. And they said the problem was that they were packed so densely that they wouldn't catch fire because, you know, it's like trying to light a log or something. And so they said the Nazis got all that information and they used it against people. And so we don't want you tracking our movements. But that's what this has all been about. This is what the creation of the Internet has been about from the very beginning.
Starting point is 01:25:40 When you had In-Q-Tel, you know, CIA openly creates a venture capital firm because they want to track everything about you. We have met the Nazis, and they is us, you know. Yeah, absolutely. And now, you know, they've had the benefit of, you know, 20 going on even 30 years of habituating the rising generations to this. You know, you and I and other middle-aged people can remember the before times. But kids who've grown up with the ubiquity of the internet and of the lack of privacy are more comfortable with it and it's
Starting point is 01:26:10 very alarming. You know, they don't appreciate the dark side to all of this technology that they've embraced for the sake of convenience. That's right. Yeah, we grew up and it was this nightmare of being stopped in public, you know, the great escape that you see at, your identity papers, please, right? Occupied territory. And yet that's what this is all about. And you're right. People have now, even people who didn't grow up under this are now getting accustomed to
Starting point is 01:26:34 this. They've moved the Overton window so far, so quickly. It's amazing. But the people who've never known a system where everything was anonymous, we had pay phones, for example, right? Yeah. You know, people who never experienced that really don't have a frame of reference. But even the people who had that have now become acclimated to this constant surveillance and tracking. And they did a very good job during the pandemic of getting people to consider cash dirty, a vector for disease spreading.
Starting point is 01:27:06 Remember all the stores that would no longer even accept it, and that has become a fairly typical thing. I find that every other time that I go to my local supermarket, they claim that the little checkout kiosks can't accept cash, and so you're effectively forced to use some form of electronic currency to make your purchase. Wow. Wow. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:27:26 I remember, you know, this whole war on drugs thing where they would steal your cash by having the dog sniff. And it's like, oh, we smell some drugs on there. It's like, of course they do. They're ubiquitous. They're everywhere. But yeah. I can make my dog bark on command too. Exactly.
Starting point is 01:27:42 Exactly. So now they're going to roll this out. How do you cross-examine a German shepherd? Maybe they'll have some virus sniffing dogs i could name them pcr1 and pcr2 they're probably as good as the pcr thing of finding anything you train them to find they probably can at least as reliable that's right maybe more so you know there's an article on reason magazine about this tracking thing eric the federal government's plan to track truckers every movement is a privacy nightmare. When I saw this, I thought, well, they're already tracking commercial vehicles. They got a lot of different ways that they track commercial trucks,
Starting point is 01:28:15 but it never ends. They always have a new wrinkle there. And everybody needs to understand that whatever they do to businesses right now, they always roll this stuff out with businesses first. But it's going to be coming for the individuals. This is where they're headed for everybody. Wirelessly transmitting location data, other personal information to police on demand. Now, this is in the U.S. and in the U.K. where they're rolling out these no-go zones unless you pay the big taxes and everything. That's exactly how they're going to enforce it there.
Starting point is 01:28:44 They're rolling this stuff out first here on commercial vehicles. Yeah, it's such a sad thing, too, because at one time, being an over-the-road trucker was analogous to being a cowboy back in the 1870s. You know, you were out there on the open road, you were free, you were on your own schedule in between stops, and as long as you made it to where you needed to be on time, everybody was happy, and that's how it worked. I know some people who drive commercially, and they are among the most regimented, parented, controlled people imaginable. The vehicles will squeal on them for going two or three miles an hour over the speed limit.
Starting point is 01:29:17 Or if they accelerate too aggressively or brake too aggressively. I mean, it's insufferable. I could never be an over-the-road trucker these days. Yeah, the big brother is looking over your shoulder more and more all the time about everything. But it's not even just long-haul truckers. It's the delivery guys. Look at Amazon and how they're harassed.
Starting point is 01:29:36 Well, it's also coming to your next new vehicle. You know, I test drive new cars every week, so I get a preview before many people do of what they are going to make very common and very standard and the cars the new cars almost all of them already have to one degree or another this type of technology embedded within them and so it's really just a matter of making it uh mandatory for example that it gets reported to your insurance company or or to the state you know if you drive too aggressively or to accelerate too aggressively and all those
Starting point is 01:30:05 kinds of things. That's right. And we've talked about that in the past. That's how they keep the newer generations in the EU from owning cars is through confiscatory insurance policy prices. So much so that it's not the cost of the car in the UK, for example, as much as it is the cost of the insurance where siblings will have to go into a partnership in order to be able to afford it. Because if you drive more than X number of miles, then your insurance goes sky high. So they have to say, well, you can't drive this thing more than X number of miles. And so they have to work out between the siblings just exactly how far each of them are going to drive. It's just amazing to see how everything the government does is about surveillance, it's about control, it's about rationing of resources, and of course,
Starting point is 01:30:50 that's all to take everything away from us, so we own nothing. And you know, the thing that psychologically, I guess, that interests me about all of this is that there's apparently no spirit of rebellion to any of this. When I was that age, you know, we all fought it. We did everything we could to get around it. I remember making fake IDs, for example, so I could buy beer when I was 16. Uh, you probably have the same memories and,
Starting point is 01:31:12 you know, we wanted a car that was our own so that we could get away from being controlled by parents. You know, we did all those things. That's right. And now they just sort of supinely and passively and insouciantly accept all of this stuff.
Starting point is 01:31:23 And I can't fathom it well i think it's you know we're talking about the differences in child raising and stuff i had a story uh just a couple of weeks ago about a mother whose life was basically ruined i mean she's single mom and she told her son you know there were just a couple blocks from home you can walk home and the nosy neighbor gladys clavitt kravitz calls the cops and everything they do the home they they take her kid away from her for a while they put her in jail for a while but they completely destroyed her ability to work with kids they labeled her as abusive and i think just because her kid walked home a couple of blocks so they're they're told that they don't want to be outside they don't want to be out on their own and they criminalize that kind
Starting point is 01:32:02 of behavior they do everything to keep us inside and glued to the TV monitor. So they don't look at that. You're talking about how we were always looking for ways that we could get independence. I mean, cause that's, you know, when I was a kid, we were, you know, kind of free range kids is what they would call them today. Uh, and I would drive, ride my bike for miles, uh, just cause I wanted to go somewhere, you know? And so I was looking at, uh, early age.
Starting point is 01:32:27 Oh, I could get a motorcycle before I could get a car. It's cheaper and I can get the license license before that and everything. So, you know, I was looking at ways that I could go further, you know, and, uh, my experience as well. I remember being eight years old, you know, and, and I, and all of my friends, the same age group, you know, as soon as we got home from school we jumped on our bikes and uh we we went and had adventures and we did what we wanted to do and there were no parents around that's right other than in a vague sense you know the parents might be looking out the window and just seeing if
Starting point is 01:32:56 there's any problem but uh you know we we were uh we were allowed to just free range as long as we were home by supper that was the general rule yeah and as you say, you got to be 12, 13 years old, and you started thinking about a dirt bike maybe. And maybe you got a dirt bike. And then after that, you were champing at the bit to get your first car, and you were probably cutting grass and doing whatever odd jobs you could so that you could afford that car by the time you turned 16. That's right. That was the ubiquitous experience of everybody in our generation.
Starting point is 01:33:22 That's exactly what it was. But if you had kids who acted like the little rascals, uh, they would probably publicly execute their parents. Yeah. It's really tragic. There's an even worse case, which I'm sure you're familiar with. I can't recall which state it was, but it was a woman who had the audacity to let her child play in their own backyard. And she was inside the house. She was present in the house. The kid was out in the yard. And, you know, she turned away for a while to cook or whatever it was she was doing. And some Gladys Kravitz person called the cops. And as you say, you know, this becomes the basis for
Starting point is 01:33:54 painting that parent as some kind of a negligent or even abusive parent. And that becomes a life ruining event. That's right. Yeah. Yeah. Especially taking your kids away. Let's talk a little bit about, we're talking about the trucks and tracking the truck. Yep. And Elon Musk put out, tweeted out that his Tesla semi has completed its first 500 mile journey with a full load. Now this is something.

Starting point is 01:34:46 Main market excluding specials and place bets. Terms apply. Bet responsibly. 18plusgamblingcare.ie. Now, I... It's a full load, all right. A lot of batteries. And, you know, I thought it was interesting
Starting point is 01:34:55 because I've covered this before. And I said, okay, so they got to get 500 miles as, you know, reasonable range. They need to have a longer range for these things so you don't have to stop as often. Yeah. But I've talked about this. And it's like, what is it going to take to charge this thing up?
Starting point is 01:35:08 And I know he's got, you know, another level of charger there. That's going to charge it even faster, which is going to make it more likely to catch fire by the way. Absolutely. And, uh, you know, that's just going to enhance the fire risk. And you think about what a big fire that's going to be with that kind of giant battery. But when I look at this, it says, well, you know, the whole thing was 81,000 pounds. But of course that 81,000 pounds is going to include the weight of the truck itself
Starting point is 01:35:36 and its batteries. So you've lost some payload there. But I think the sleight of hand in all of this is that he did it on a 500-mile journey without having to stop for a charge. And I think that's really where the issue is going to be on these trucks. What do you think about this? Well, I think the other half of it is that while Elon Musk may be able to design, build a fast charger that could hypothetically recharge one of those big rigs in, let's say, a half an hour, where's the power going to come from to do that? Yeah. Oh, yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 01:36:11 You're talking about orders of magnitude, too, when you're thinking about a truck stop. It's not just one truck. Let's just postulate for the sake of discussion a typical truck stop where you've got a dozen of these rigs waiting to charge up. And the power demands that that would impose, I had an article about this the other day, and this was, you know, referencing some stats from some of the energy providers. It would require a power output comparable to that necessary to power a massive factory or a small town. Wow. And that's going to be another excuse to say, you can't use your car
Starting point is 01:36:41 because we got to reserve all the electricity on this diminished grid for the truckers because, you know, everything's got now everything's got all these different links in the supply chain for the just in time delivery. And so now that we have banned all the diesel trucks and we banned everything and everybody's got to charge all their transportation off the grid, we don't have enough for you guys. We've got to do the truck first. That's another excuse they're going to use to shut down private transportation. And by the way, too, you know, this is another aspect of this, that people who are, you know, on the fence and just want to come down on the side of right, you know, in fact, should consider, which is that if they were being honest about what their goal is, you know, they claim, well, we just want to convert everything to electricity and we're going to have the same kind of functioning system that we had before.
Starting point is 01:37:25 It's just going to be clean and electric. Why is it that they are doing everything they can to prevent an increase in the generating capacity of the grid as by allowing new nuclear power plants to be constructed that could at least actually provide the necessary electricity that would be required for that to happen? Yeah, that's the big tell, the nuclear power. If this is about emissions, they don't have any reason not to have nuclear power plants, right? That's another clue that it's not about emissions. And they just don't want you to have power. And that's all that there is about that.
Starting point is 01:38:00 They're going to shut down the grid. You and I have talked about that for the longest time. We saw this coming years ago. They're going to shut down the grid. You and I have talked about that for the longest time. We saw this coming years ago. Uh, they're going to force everybody to switch over to something. That doesn't have capacity doesn't work. It's too expensive and there's not going to be any electricity on the grid to charge any of these electric vehicles, but everything else is going to be banned. Uh, and, and that includes, you know, it's not just the cars and the trucks in New
Starting point is 01:38:24 York city, they're banning any kind of heating for your home or your apartment that isn't electric. So, you know, it's going to be everything, putting everything on the grid because they can control everything from the grid. That's what it's about. Yep. They can impose energy rationing, which has real consequences for people. It's not just a matter of comfort and convenience. You know, if you haven't got electricity and your house has a heat pump as its only source of heat, you could potentially freeze to death. You know, in the summer, if you don't have the electricity to power the air
Starting point is 01:38:52 conditioning and you're older and those high heat days can be lethal. And of course, if, you know, the refrigerator isn't on, your food goes bad. So these things have real world repercussions and people really ought to be aware of what they are. That's right. Yeah, let's talk a little bit about the good old days. You got an article, A Look Back for a Company with No Future. I really like that. You said last year there was a holiday ride about an old widower and his also old car, a 66 Impala SS. This year it's Mrs. Hayes, an old widow, and her even older car, a 57 Chevy Nomad. GM hasn't made cars like either of these, stylish or big V8s under the hood.
Starting point is 01:39:30 So, you know, they look back at a time when there was amazing diversity and options and affordability and all these other things. I remember, you know, people would change cars like every three years or something like that, right? Yeah, because they could afford to. Yeah, exactly. Isn't it interesting, though, that GM can't come up with anything to say that's emotionally involving about anything new that it has to offer, so it has to reach back decades to find a car that people actually did connect with and desperately hope that people will think, oh, yeah, I remember my 57 Nomad.
Starting point is 01:40:00 Maybe I should go out and buy an electric GM Bolt. Exactly. Yeah, that's a big thing around here. Around the Pigeon Forge area, they will have frequent auto shows. It used to be every time we'd come over from North Carolina, there was something that was happening. People with classic cars. One year, they had a DeLorean convention, and that was really cool.
Starting point is 01:40:24 We didn't know that was happening. We just show up. And as all of a sudden there's, I had never seen a DeLorean in, in real life in person ever before. And all of a sudden, you know, there's like 50 of them all over the place, you know,
Starting point is 01:40:34 you can see inside of them, but they have all these classic cars and everybody's got a great attachment to them because they have character. They have diversity. They have diversity of, of everything, styling, color, you name it. Now everything is like on a scale.
Starting point is 01:40:48 It's on a gray scale. You can have an occasional red car. It's an anodyne appliance. Yeah, it is. And cars were once more than that. And to get back to our discussion about mobility, that correlates with it closely. You began to feel affection for your car. Your car became part of your family and your history.
Starting point is 01:41:03 And that all intertwined and made you want to keep it and to get another one. What they succeeded in doing is turning cars into toasters. And who cares about a toaster? You throw it away when it doesn't work anymore. That's right. Yeah, you talked about how it was a vehicle for our generation for independence and adulthood. But it was also when I was a child, you know, it was see the USA in a Chevrolet. And so, you know, that's and that's what we did.. There was no interstate system and it became a real adventure and a real challenge for my parents. Yeah. He's like, oh, wait a minute. You thought, where's that turn?
Starting point is 01:41:33 It's not on the map and all the rest of this stuff. We would pack a picnic lunch because there was no, there were no chain foods. Um, uh, you know, places like McDonald's did not exist at that point in time. And so you kind of pack your lunch because it was hit or miss if you stopped at the restaurants. You really didn't have a way to check out reviews of them. And so it was a real adventure. I really missed that. I've done that.
Starting point is 01:41:57 Karen and I did it across, well, halfway across the country. We went back to Florida from Texas. And we didn't have a paper map, but we told the thing to keep us off the interstate. And that makes for an interesting drive. And so it was really kind of like an old trip in many ways. Of course, the chains were still everywhere, all the same food places everywhere. But that's a big part of the nostalgia of it. But it was a vehicle that was associated with independence and freedom and vacations and travel and all the rest of the nostalgia of it, but it was a vehicle that was associated with independence and freedom
Starting point is 01:42:25 and vacations and travel and all the rest of the stuff. That is why they're trying to make our world very, very small, limit us to these 200, 300 square foot apartments inside a smart city that's watching everything that we do. Yes. Also there was a kind of democratization of affluence, if you like. You know, look at vehicles like that 57 Nomad and the 66 Impala. These were big vehicles with V8 engines. You know, the kinds of things that were inconceivable in Europe. You know, in Europe, they were driving around little BMW, I said, as if they were lucky.
Starting point is 01:43:00 And a lot of them were, of course, riding trains and the buses. And, you know, in Europe, that kind of thing, you had to be really rich to afford something like a Mercedes with a V8, whereas the average American, a plumber, you know, a kid right out of college in the 60s could buy a GTO, you know, and that's all been given away for the sake of appeasing these virtue signaling neurotic people. And it's just, it's absolutely a tragedy. You've got a line here in your article, and you say, even as recently as 1979, GM's Pontiac division was selling almost as many Firebirds, just that one model, the Firebird, as GM sold of everything it sells in the second quarter of this year. They're putting themselves out of business, and they're just fine with it. They don't see themselves as a car company. We've talked about this many times. We want to be a mobility company.
Starting point is 01:43:43 We want to have a duopoly of rent-by-the-ride transportation, don't they? It's this ESG stuff. It no longer matters whether you're making a profit and you're providing things that people actually want to buy. It's all about signaling virtue. You probably caught that Biden the other day changed the regulatory regime such that these fiduciaries that are in charge of people's 401ks now no longer have to consider whether this is in the best interest of the people who have these 401ks if it furthers the virtue signaling of whatever the ESG is. That's right, because he's got some state attorneys general who are out there saying, you know, you have a responsibility under the law to maximize the stockholders' money.
Starting point is 01:44:27 And they don't want stockholders, they want stakeholders, and they want to have this ESG stuff. But there was a line of attack that was opening up saying you're violating your fiduciary trust and your responsibility by not focusing on money, because that's the way you sold yourself to these people. I still think that even if he does something like that, I think it would be a good court case because you can't come in and grab people's money and then change the way that you're doing business in a legitimate way. It's a fraudulent thing to do. You shouldn't be able to. I mean, after all, this is a contractual arrangement. You can't just withdraw your money without penalty either. You've committed. You've
Starting point is 01:45:04 put your money into this investment fund. And so you've done so on the assumption that, you know, the conditions that obtained when you put your money in would continue to exist for the duration of the time that the money was held there. And then they just, you know, they pull the rug out from under you and say you lose. And by the way, you know, your portfolio is suddenly worth 40% less. That's right. You know, you and I have talked about the different changes that are happening to vehicles. A lot of them not for the better. There was an article out of the UK saying handbrakes are set to disappear from cars this decade as brands switch to electric.
Starting point is 01:45:37 Yeah, we've got a lot of people saying, give me a break. We can't get a break out of all this stuff, right? Yeah. They already have. There are very few new vehicles that still have a pull-up emergency brake. And I like to use that word rather than parking brake because I think it is important to make that distinction. The electronic brake, it's a little button that you push, and the thing cinches up electronically using servos, but you have no ability to modulate or control it.
Starting point is 01:46:01 Whereas with a pull-up emergency brake, if there's an emergency, if you have brake failure, you can pull that up and you can gradually modulate the pressure on it to prevent the wheels from locking up and so on. So it's a safety device. And it's interesting that the same government that constantly tells us it ululates about safety when it wants to impose something on us is studiously indifferent when it comes to something that genuinely is a safety issue. That's right. And as you point out many times, you know, the cost to repair this electronic brake is very, very expensive. This article from the UK is saying 2,800 pounds to repair an electronic brake system for a Range Rover Sport instead of having something that is cheaper, mechanical, more reliable,
Starting point is 01:46:43 useful in an emergency. And, you know, if you learn how to do it, you can do Rockford's with it. Yes, and that's something else they don't want you to do. Yeah, you know, there's a pattern here, isn't there? They're systematically taking away your ability to control the car. Yes. The car now controls you through electronics and features that you can't turn off. You know, it's just they're peremptory.
Starting point is 01:47:03 You know, there's no wheel slip allowed. The traction control comes on. The ABS is on. All of these things are on. And soon it's going to be advanced speed limit assist so that if you, you know, dare to drive any faster than what the totem by the side of the road says, you know, the brakes will be applied and the throttle dialed back. That's right.
Starting point is 01:47:18 Yeah, there's, you know, I know we don't have Citroen here. We don't have any French cars. They have failed in the marketplace. We're talking about Renault or Peugeot or Citroën. But they have one in the UK, and it's similar to what, you know, we've talked about in the past, how in France you could get these little starter cars, right? Yep. And they'd be a cheap starter car for teenagers because it's not technically a car, so a 16-year-old could drive it legally.
Starting point is 01:47:48 I mean, I was driving at 16. Yeah, it's a low-speed short-hop car. Yeah, that's right. I was driving at 15, actually, and then at 16, I had my own car. But now that's a novelty. You could use it like a firearm or something. But now that is coming into the UK, and so people are saying, yeah, well, you know, they're, they're desperate for something that they can afford.
Starting point is 01:48:07 They're trying to, uh, this review, the guy's trying to, well, could you live with this thing on a daily basis? Because it is so incredibly small, but it's very cheap. You know, it's only about, uh, 2.4 meters long. So, uh, we're talking about six, about nine feet long or something, I guess. And, uh, very, very tiny. And, but this one now is of course an electric and that's why they're doing a an article on it because oh look now we
Starting point is 01:48:30 got a small electric thing and it's only got a range of 46 miles and it can't go any faster than 30 miles per hour this is like a golf cart or something it's well yeah and that's what they want us all in if we're not on foot or pedaling. That's right, yeah. So what are some of the cars that you're looking at reviewing on your site that you've seen that are interesting? Well, I still have the 23 Toyota Tacoma, which is my favorite of all the midsize trucks on the market for two principal reasons. One being that you can still get it with a V6 engine, and the other being that you can get a manual transmission with that V6 engine. And when I tell people that the Tacoma that you can get a manual transmission with that V6 engine. And when I tell people that the Tacoma is the last truck, period, whether full-sized,
Starting point is 01:49:10 mid-sized, or smaller, that you can still get with a manual transmission, they're floored. But it's the truth. Wow. I didn't know that they were doing that. But Toyota has made a move a little bit more towards the manuals, you know, the sports cars that we talked about. I didn't know they were doing that with a pickup truck either, but that's very important. You know, I think a lot of the problem with that electric pickup truck and the battery
Starting point is 01:49:33 just, you know, dying whenever they tried to tow anything, I think a lot of that was because of not having gearing, you know? So I think it's really important to have the gears to be able to tow, to be able to get out of, you know, a situation where you need traction, that type of thing. But, of course, you know, this is not an electric vehicle, but still, that's an important thing, the gearing. So I didn't know they had a manual. That's cool. Also, simplicity and control.
Starting point is 01:49:58 You know, as a driver, you have much more control over the vehicle and how it performs and how it operates when you determine when the gears are going to shift. A lot of cars with automatics, and they've got these paddle shifters and this pretended manual shift control, but only within certain parameters. You know, the thing will automatically force an upshift or even a downshift, depending on the circumstances. So it's illusory. But when you have a manual, you're in full control of the vehicle. And the manual is a completely simple mechanical device.
Starting point is 01:50:24 It doesn't rely on electronics. It's much more long-lived inherently for that reason. And it's much more repairable. You know, you may have to put a clutch in it at some point, but that's a relatively affordable thing as opposed to spending three, four, even $5,000 or more on a new automatic transmission. That's right. That's right. Yeah. When my daughter started driving, I said, I'll give you $500 if you'll buy towards a car, if you'll buy a manual. Because I wanted her to do that. I knew that, yeah, I knew she was going to have a problem focusing. And, you know, and I found from my own experience that it's easier for me to focus on my driving when I'm doing a manual rather than automatic. Just that little bit of, you know, forget about all the rest of these bells and whistles
Starting point is 01:51:08 that they put on cars, but just that thing, an automatic transmission makes it easier for my mind to drift, for me not to pay as much attention as I do when I'm driving a manual. When I drive a manual, I am focused on what I'm doing. Yeah, and I think that's especially important for new teenage drivers because, you know, they are teenagers and they get distracted more easily and they don't have the experience and the skill set that adults have, you know, which compensates for the automatic. Particularly nowadays with the cell phones and the ubiquity of texting all the time, it's very hard to do that while you're driving a car with a manual transmission. So for that reason alone, you know, I strongly encourage any parents listening to this to do as you did and encourage their kids just to learn how to drive with a stick shift car
Starting point is 01:51:48 all the phone especially that's a real important point you know that's such a distracting thing you cannot talk on the phone and play with the phone texting and all that kind of stuff while you got a manual transmission and also a cup you know where we're so drawn to the fact that we're always drinking in a car and that type of thing uh with a manual transmission makes it difficult for you to get a drink um you know they still have couple you know when german cars were still made for people who actually like to drive one of the complaints the car press used to level with them was that there weren't any cult uh cup holders or that they were inadequate yeah that's right and that's the complaint that they have against the latest generation of miata you know there's like uh like, we're the cup holders. It's like, this is about driving.
Starting point is 01:52:27 The little plug-in thing that you plug into that slot on the console. It's hilarious. I know. Yeah, it's kind of, all right, all right, we'll kind of retro something. If they've got to have something there, we'll put that there for the American market. I wanted to get in one more thought, though, on the Tacoma, which people should be aware of. And that is that it's going to be redesigned in 2024. And I think it's probable, maybe even likely, that at the very least, the manual transmission is probably going to go away, and it's possible that the V6 may go away. Toyota got rid of the V8 in the Tundra, which used to be standard. The Tundra's their half-ton truck, and replaced it with a 3.5-liter V6 with twin turbos and a mild hybrid setup, which they had to do.
Starting point is 01:53:05 It wasn't because the market wanted that. It's because the regulatory regime is getting to be so cumbersome that you simply cannot meet the standards without resorting to these artifices. And so if you like a truck that's simple, that has a V6 and a manual transmission, you might want to look at that Tacoma before they're gone. Yeah, we've got cars now being designed by Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, and Joe Biden. You know, that's the sad thing about this, and all the bureaucrats that they've got lined up with them.
Starting point is 01:53:32 Yeah, it wasn't that long ago that you and I were laughing about the absurdity of the electric Dodge Charger or Challenger. Maybe, I don't know if they still have it. With a sound box. With a sound box, right? And now they're doing this in the UK, even with a little Fiat Abarth, right? Yep.
Starting point is 01:53:53 Because they want it to sound sporty. And so they're actually putting a little sound box on the electric Abarth, which is the, you know, the performance, if you want to call it. The hot shoe version of the little 500. Yeah, yeah. If you want to call it. The hot shoe version of the little 500. Yeah, yeah. I'll go a little blue here. People who have dogs will know about this.
Starting point is 01:54:09 If you have a male dog, you could take your dog in to get, as they put it, fixed, neutered. There's a product, not making this up, called neuticles, which are fake testicles that you can, and their slogan is looking and feeling the same. And that's how I feel about the voice box coming out of the pathetic electric car. Yeah, it is. So it is so funny to see this, but yeah, that's something that they talked about for a long time.
Starting point is 01:54:35 They said, uh, you know, it's going to be a, we're going to have to have, not just for the market to make people, you know, uh, feel good about driving their car or whatever, or feel sporty. But just they said, well, they're silent, and they're going to sneak up on pedestrians. And so there was all this talk for a while, what kind of sounds are they going to do? Is it going to be like the Jetsons Tweety Bird or something?
Starting point is 01:54:58 It's like, what are they going to do to warn people that a car is coming up when it's silent and you can't hear it? Did you know that the Tesla has a built-in fart sound? No, I didn't know that. Yeah. Among it has a whole menu of sounds that you can, uh, that you can dial up to suit your mood. And one of them is a farting sound. Well, great.
Starting point is 01:55:14 And, and, uh, and that's on the outside. People get to hear that on the outside, I guess. Isn't that great? Well, you know, I, I used to, when I had my first car, um, I, I my first car, I put several horns on it. It was a Mustang. So I found a horn that would whinny like a Mustang. And I had another one that had like a minor third, had three notes. It was like a C, D, and E flat.
Starting point is 01:55:36 So I could do the European, you know, the French police. You know, that type of thing. And I had an ooga horn. So I had, you know, I played with stuff like that. that type of thing. And I had an Ugo horn. So I had, you know, I played with stuff like that. So yeah, I can get it that people would do, but that was also a cheaper car. That was something that I'd paid 60 to $90,000 for. So, well, and it was a farce. Now this, this, this airs that's reality that they're trying to foist on us in so many different ways. It's, it's demoralizing and depressing. You know, it just makes you want to tuck your tail and go hide in a closet somewhere.
Starting point is 01:56:09 I mean, I wouldn't be caught dead driving one of these electric things that makes some kind of fraudulent noise to make me think I'm driving something that's got character and a soul. Yeah. You got a flatulent tire that you need to change it. You got a spare. Uh, so you got another article. Why you can't buy what you can't buy for $2,700 anymore.
Starting point is 01:56:30 Talk about that. Yeah. You know, I have a lot of car models being a kind of a car maniac. And so one of my models is of a 71 Dodge Demon, which was kind of a hot rod version of the ordinary Dodge Dart, which was an economy car in its time. And I looked it up, and I found that you could have bought in 1971 a Demon for about $2,700, which works out to about $20,000 in today's money. And that would have gotten you a V8-powered muscle car that was a mid-sized car by modern standards. And the reason it was affordable, one of the reasons it was affordable
Starting point is 01:57:05 was because back in those days, there was a lot of transferability. You know, the Dart was rear-wheel drive, and it was designed to accommodate a V8 engine, so it was a relatively simple thing to just take off-the-shelf parts and upgrade it and put them in there and then offer that for sale. You can't do that with modern economy cars
Starting point is 01:57:22 because they're all front-wheel drive, and, you know, you couldn't put an engine in there without reengineering the entire car. And then it gets really prohibitively expensive. So, essentially, you've been priced out of the market of these affordable, fun cars. You know, it's something that I harp on all the time because I think it's important to harp on it. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Absolutely.
Starting point is 01:57:40 Yeah. I think about the kind of diversity of cars we had, all different shapes and sizes. I had a friend who had a little tiny Opel GT. Remember those? Those look like a miniature. Yeah, I think about the kind of diversity of cars we had, all different shapes and sizes. I had a friend who had a little tiny Opel GT. Remember those? Looked like a miniature Corvette. Yeah, sure, with a little hood bulge and everything. Yeah. Yeah, it's like a miniature.
Starting point is 01:57:52 I shrunk up, you know, a Corvette at the time. I had another friend who had, you remember they came out with a, Richard Petty came out uh that super bird or something like that that he had right and uh he had a couple of wing in the shovel nose yeah it had the massive wing on the back and the and the thing on the front it's like this prosthetic nose or something you know for for a drag and i had a friend in high school his dad bought him uh the the super bird thing that was um you know it had a roadrunner on it and things like that we were all just gobsmacked at uh you know what why in the world i mean it's so ostentatious you know the 200 mile an hour talladega yeah and you're driving it to school back and forth and
Starting point is 01:58:38 trying to navigate corners with this there's like three foot thing on the front of the uh of the car and this gigantic wing on the back. I was like, what is that? But you're right, though. There were so many interesting cars. Of the many that called to mind from my own past, I had a buddy in high school, and his dad had a Sunbeam Alpine Tiger. Do you know what that is?
Starting point is 01:58:58 Oh, yeah. Yeah. I've seen that. Didn't James Bond drive that in one of the early things, a Sunbeam? He may have. It's not as well-known as the Shelby Cobra, but a very similar concept. They took a British sports car, the Sunbeam Alpine, and they put a little Ford V8 in the thing. And it was feasible to do that again back in those days because you didn't have all of these car-specific computers.
Starting point is 01:59:20 You didn't have to worry about getting it through the gamut of regulatory compliance. The manufacturer could just say hey it would be fun to put a v8 in this thing let's do it and see if it'll sell exactly yeah i know well they still do that some people do it after market with miatas you know you got the flying miata guys and they'll shove a v8 into miata and i i don't know it's not not what i would necessarily be into because then you got to change the uh the transmission out and um you, that's one of the nice things about it. And there goes the normal brilliant weight balance that defines that car's incredible handling.
Starting point is 01:59:50 Yeah, that's right. Yeah, so it messes up some of the things that makes it unique. But, yeah, there's still people out there who will do it. But they had a real hard time with this fourth generation because everything was so computerized and electronic. And, you know, they had done it for the first three generations. It got a little bit difficult with the third one, even though they had more room just because of connectivity. But then when it came into the, you know,
Starting point is 02:00:12 the electronic bus and all the rest of the stuff, everything was, you know, it was a giant programming issue. It was no longer a mechanical thing to do that. Yeah, people don't realize until they find out the hard way that even something as, you know, you would assume simple as a power window, let's say your power window fails, you know, in the past it would be, well, okay, we need a new motor or, you know, you need to fix a wiring. Now it's part of a body control module and it's a whole elaborate and specific to that particular car kerfuffle that only a dealer, generally speaking, can deal with.
Starting point is 02:00:41 That's right. You were talking earlier about the Tacoma having a stick shift. You've also got a review about the Honda Ridgeline, which I thought was kind of interesting. I've always thought that was an interesting concept, as you point out. It's not like a traditional pickup truck. It's got a smaller bed, but it's got a lot of bells and whistles and things like that. What do you think about the new Honda Ridgeline? Oh, I like it a lot.
Starting point is 02:01:02 It's the perfect truck for somebody who needs one but doesn't really want one. You know, meaning that while it looks like a truck, it's based on essentially a car-type platform. It's all-wheel drive. It's very closely related to the Honda Pilot. They basically put a custom body on the Honda Pilot. And because it isn't a truck, it's got a much more usable bed. It doesn't have the big solid rear axle leaf spring setup that you'd have in a typical truck in the back. And so for that reason, even though it's mid a much more usable bed. It doesn't have the big solid rear axle leaf spring setup that you'd have in a typical truck in the back. And so for that reason, even though it's mid-sized, you can lay a 4x8 sheet flat in the bed because it doesn't have the big humps for the wheel wells
Starting point is 02:01:34 and for the suspension that you'd find in a typical truck. And Honda's really clever. There's an additional storage bed that's lockable and weathertight underneath the main bed. And you can pull a 5,000-pound trailer with the thing. You know, that's plenty for most people. It's more than most cars. It's a very versatile, very usable vehicle.
Starting point is 02:01:51 I love it. And it's got the V6 engine that you used to be able to get in the Accord, but you can't anymore. And they had some unusual things, too, didn't they? Like some hidden compartments down in the bed and, you know, things, refrigerated things. What kind of bells and whistles do they have on that? Yeah, multiple things like that.
Starting point is 02:02:07 Yeah. All sorts of factory and then dealer available options to, you know, to make it suit your particular purpose. It is a very useful vehicle, you know, without being a truck. Not everybody needs, you know, a full-frame vehicle with the weight and the, generally speaking, poor gas mileage and the trucky handling. I mean, I personally like it. I own trucks, but a lot of people don't like that feel, and it's also not as jacked up. Now, this I do like.
Starting point is 02:02:32 You can stand next to that Ridgeline, and you can reach easily into the bed, and you can remove stuff that you put in the bed, which is becoming very difficult with these new generation trucks that are all jacked up and steroidal and very difficult to use, even if you're a really tall galoot like me. Yeah. Well, you know, I think they get extra points for just trying to design something. You know what I'm saying? That takes it beyond just being an appliance.
Starting point is 02:02:56 You know, they're actually thinking about it and trying to come up with something that's unique. So that's kind of what you said. You know, before we end, I'm almost afraid to ask, but what are the prices for the Honda Ridgeline and the Tacoma? What are you looking at? The Tacoma is more affordable, considerably more affordable. You can get, I think the base trim is just under $28,000. I think it's $27,000 and change, which is really reasonable for a new truck. And by the way, also dimensionally, if you look at the Tacoma specs in terms of things like length and so on, it's very, very close to what a half-ton truck used to be back in the 90s.
Starting point is 02:03:31 So if you are kind of put off by the way half-ton trucks, modern ones have been supersized, they're a bit too much for you, they're a bit too much for me, you might really want to look at that Tacoma. Now, the Ridgeline's more expensive, but it's also more generously equipped. You know, it comes standard with all-wheel drive, comes standard with more amenities. I think it's about $38,000 base price. But, you know, in today's market, that's not too out of hand either. Yeah. Yeah, you talk about supersizing trucks. You know, when I pull up at a stoplight in my Miata and one of these supersized trucks pulls up behind me, it's like, can they even see me? I mean, it's amazing how tall they are. It's amazing. I mean, they're just going to, if I get an accident,
Starting point is 02:04:10 they're just going to drive straight over me. It's the most striking thing. You know, if you have the opportunity to view a current half ton truck park next to, uh, any half ton truck from the nineties or even the early two thousands, and you'll get a sense of just how huge they've become yeah yeah well that's their selling point you know everybody wants to uh get higher than the next person you know they feel like that conveys some sense of safety to them and i guess as long as the thing is not uh top heavy if they've got some um you know something to assist with um uh the steering issue so it doesn't flip over i think they've uh i don't. The miracle is these things handle better than the sports cars of the 70s.
Starting point is 02:04:47 They're very easy to drive. They're just not that easy to park. That's right. That's right. Well, it is always interesting to talk to you, Eric, your wealth of information in terms of what's going on in transportation right now and with Liberty. I would suggest to everybody take a look at epautos.com.
Starting point is 02:05:05 You will find a lot of stuff. If you love mobility and freedom, you're going to find a soulmate there with Eric. I've always enjoyed talking to you, Eric. Thank you. Appreciate it. Thank you for having me on, Dave. Thank you. We're going to take a quick break, and we'll be right back.
Starting point is 02:05:19 The show will continue, so stay with us. um Music Analyzing the globalist's next move. And now, The David Knight Show. All right, welcome back. Let's talk a little bit about the updates on this Balenciaga thing, a brand name I'd never heard of before. I talked about the famous phrase, the devil wears Prada. Well, maybe he wears Balenciaga. Ken Kardashian wears Balenciaga.
Starting point is 02:07:03 He gets paid a lot of money to model it. A lot of people are asking her, why haven't you spoken out about this very disturbing pictures of this young girl and other things, kids' pictures that were taken. You know by now I've covered it. Many people have covered it. Within the photograph conspicuously placed, was a Supreme Court decision pushing back
Starting point is 02:07:31 some of the prohibitions on pedophilia and things like that. But also showing these children holding teddy bear that was all trussed up and bondage stuff. And then also dark symbols, black silhouettes of dragons and things like that designed to look very, um, satanic. And, uh, also, you know, the, the, to me, the meaning was, I haven't heard anybody else say this, but to me, the literal meaning is this kid sitting there holding a teddy bear, you know, show us what they did to you. And it's what you do to kids who've been abused. You know, here's a teddy bear, you know, show us what they did to you. You know, this is what you do to kids who've been abused. You know, here's a teddy bear. Just point to the teddy bear and tell me what this guy did to you.
Starting point is 02:08:09 And so when they have the kid holding a teddy bear that's all trussed up and this bondage stuff and everything, that's the other suggestion to me. But there are other things that have come out. But Kim Kardashian finally spoke up. And, you know, it's in terms of her association with this brand after nearly a week of total silence uh writes bright bart despite calls from her own fans to address the controversy kardashian finally condemned balenciaga in a twitter statement admitting that she felt disgusted by the ads that sexualized children.
Starting point is 02:08:46 She said, as a mother of four, I have been shaken by the disturbing images. The safety of children must be held with the highest regard, and any attempts to normalize child abuse of any kind should have no place in our society, period. Then she goes on to say that she is examining her relationship with the company. It's like, what, what? I need a little bit more time to think about it. You know, this is really horrific what they're doing for money, but, um, I need a little bit more time to think about it, you know, because we're talking about money here.
Starting point is 02:09:19 As I say, you know, when you play the game of scruples, we noticed a long time ago, uh, they keep asking you the same types of questions and they keep changing the dollar amounts. You know, can I buy you off for this amount? Can I buy you off for that amount? And, uh, thank you, boss Chavez. Thank you very much. Appreciate the tip on rock fin. Um, so she's going to examine the situation here.
Starting point is 02:09:43 I'm currently reevaluating my relationship with the brand, basing it off of their willingness to accept accountability. Oh, really? How should they be held accountable? What does she think they should be held accountable for? I mean, they are not accepting any accountability. It's a game of finger pointing right now. They're pointing the finger at the
Starting point is 02:10:06 photographer or the ad agency. Uh, they're pointing it back to them and saying, well, you know, you got people who review all this stuff. Uh, so they're all culpable in this and she is as well. Balenciaga has Balenciaga has filed a $25 million lawsuit against the producers of the ad campaign. Uh, but you know, this is not the first rodeo with these people. When people started to go back and look at the pictures of what they've been doing and look at the ad agency and all the rest of the stuff that's, uh, there's ample evidence that this has been going on for quite some time, Nicole Kidman, Bella Hadid, if that's how you pronounce her name, have also been models for this, as they call it in this Breitbart article, ambassadors for Balenciaga, part of their advertisement campaigns, you know, featured. I guess maybe
Starting point is 02:10:59 they don't do ads for them, but, you know, they give them the clothes and then they model, you know, they wear them out to public events so they can tell, oh, look, you know, so-and-so is wearing our clothes. But if you look at what is going on in terms of inside the company, inside the ad campaigns, this is an in-house designer for Balenciaga and Adidas. These are both companies that, you know, Kim Kardashian, Kanye West have had relationships with. They're now coming under fire over disturbing social media posts. This is a woman, Lada Volkova, has a disturbing social media past. As a matter of fact, some of the people have gone back found uh that she worked for them and um unearthed some of the things that she's been doing here look at these pictures here you got a disemboweled woman there uh you've got what looks like the
Starting point is 02:11:58 a room that is a scene of murder you've got a little child holding up a human skull above its head and many other things that are there. And as one person pointed out, when you look at this, one of these pictures that was featured in this Balenciaga campaign, there is some yellow tape there. And at first you might think that it spells out Balenciaga, but they spelled it with two A's and they only show it where it says B-A-A-L. So what is that about? Well, that's about bail, right? Child sacrifice, bail. That's what that truly is about. And there's some more disturbing pictures of these weird people. You know, everybody, they try to be edgy. They try to break new ground. But isn't it funny that they just keep going back in the same old patterns
Starting point is 02:12:57 that have been around for thousands of years? All of the deeply disturbing satanic images, all there, tied back to that person. Now, we look at this, and the father of the child who posed in this sadomasochistic bondage thing defends the photo shoot. He said, yeah, the children had a fantastic time. This is not the first time we've seen this. We've got a lot of parents who drag their kids to drag queen story hours do all kinds of things with their kids you know there's just because you're a parent doesn't mean
Starting point is 02:13:36 that there isn't something you know we talked about how the government many times will overreach on things but they don't overreach when it comes to kids being drugged by their parents to a drag queen storytime hour. You might get a visit from CPS if you let your kid walk home by themselves over a couple of blocks, but you better not have the government ask any questions of a parent who would take their kid to a sexualized strip show put on by men. Yeah, you better not complain about that. So he said, yeah, this bondage theme photographs have been taken totally out of context.
Starting point is 02:14:19 So here's the thing, you know, this father, is he somebody with absolutely no discernment whatsoever about what's going on? You know, we look at that and we say, well, you know, these people are taking their kids to drag queen story time. They're not getting paid for anything, right? So this is either they're into this in a very disturbing way and ought to be investigated, I think. Or they have no discernment about what is really happening there. I played the clip from somebody who does drag, and he says, let me tell you heterosexual moms what's going on with this.
Starting point is 02:14:56 It is highly sexualized. It is a recreation of these strip clubs. It is a scene where there's a lot of casual sex and drug use happening all the time why would you take your kid to something like that as i said in the past this used to be the ticket for uh for the movies to get their r rating you know uh we kind of put something in the show some flesh so we can get our r rating and get some respect and get a certain demographic to come and watch the movie. You know, that's the way the Hollywood thinks, Hollywood directors think. And so they would throw in this strip club scene.
Starting point is 02:15:39 But that's what this is about, pushed to kids. They used to put in scenes like that in order to get an R rating. Now they do it to kids in kindergarten, in person. So the parents either have no discernment or they're culpable in that kind of pedophilia. In this particular case, I would say this parent either has no discernment about what's going on, or perhaps he's a stage parent willing to look the other way so his kids can become famous. And then you have this.
Starting point is 02:16:12 There's been a lot of talk about Tim Allen and his Santa Claus program, and he says, yeah, but I found a way that we're going to work religion into the Santa Clauses, the continuation the continuation is a Disney plus thing. Well, they did find a way to work some religion into it. Didn't they? You've now got, this is floated out here. Look at this picture here as, as a joke, of course, right? They have kids all marching out and they've got,
Starting point is 02:16:43 they're all carrying a letter, and they spell out, we love you, Satan. Oh, well, that's a mistake. It's supposed to say Santa, and one of the kids got in the wrong position. So that's their joke. Or is it a joke? And I used to do this. My son working the board knows.
Starting point is 02:17:04 I used to tell them on a son working the board knows I used to, uh, I used to tell them on a regular basis around Christmas time. I said, um, well, you know, stop and think about what they're selling you here. This,
Starting point is 02:17:13 uh, Santa Claus thing. I said, uh, and isn't it interesting? They just rearranged the letters a little bit. You get Satan here out of this. Uh,
Starting point is 02:17:22 so gateway pundits said defenders of the series claim a scene where the children are holding letters that spell out we love you satan is supposed to say we love you santa just for laughs but a lot of people are not buying that because it's coming from disney and that's where they've been hanging out i mean why is it that all these people who want to sexualize kids are into satanic imagery and things like that. And you don't think that's real? I mean, forget about if you don't believe in the supernatural, you don't believe in Satan. Well, look at the fact that there's a lot of people who do enact on it. Do we really
Starting point is 02:17:59 want to popularize that? We just had a situation in East Texas. Authorities now say a gruesome murder that occurred in East Texas last week could be part of a human sacrifice to Satan. Several sources, including the suspect's mother, indicate they've been involved in cultic activity. So, you know, you may not believe in Satan, but these people do. And when you have this constant satanic imagery, people always looking for something that is the next thing that is going to offend people. It's got to be edgy, right? We do it with language. Let's throw some language in to shock people. And this is just people who become so jaded to violence, so jaded to language or sex
Starting point is 02:18:50 or any of these other things, they have to constantly keep digging further and further in order to shock you, because that's what Hollywood wants to do. And so that's one aspect of it, always looking for the bigger shock value of this. And I got out to the next guy. I remember, again, when the kids were young and we still had the video store, we'd look up language was one of the things that you could find. And I didn't want to get them coarsened to it. And so, you know, you could look it up and typically,
Starting point is 02:19:26 I was surprised, it was kind of a regular thing with Robert De Niro. He would, in a 90-minute movie, he would use the F word 200 times. He would use it as an adverb, as a verb, as an adjective, all this. I mean, it was just crazy. It's like, hey, get some writers. You can do better than that. But it's a coarsening thing and again people get desensitized to it so we got to shock them with the next thing november the 13th the sheriff's officers found the mutilated body of a 36 year old
Starting point is 02:19:55 sarah hopson she had suffered blunt force trauma to the head her toes, and ears had been cut off and placed in a plastic bag. The suspect said, or the mother of the suspect, said that he had been hearing voices that are satanic. You know, kind of like the son of Sam. Remember the mass murder of the son of Sam in New York? You know, my dog is talking to me or whatever. I'm hearing these satanic voices. The mother of the suspect, Ethan Myers, allegedly said Myers told her that Hobson wanted him to sacrifice her, the victim.
Starting point is 02:20:35 So he did. When we look at all of this, it's become a thing lately for Hollywood. And this has always been the discussion. Are they reflecting the society or are they moving the society? That used to be the debate, right? They would always push back against people who are concerned about the content that they were pushing,
Starting point is 02:20:58 how they were constantly moving the envelope and that type of thing for shock value. And I say, well, we're not, we're not shaping the culture. We're just reflecting it and repeating it to people. I don't think anybody buys that argument anymore, do you?
Starting point is 02:21:11 I didn't buy it at the time, but it's pretty clear. We've had so many movies in the last year that involved cannibalism. And it's very disturbing to look at the trend in films about slasher films, horror films, and things like that. And 20 years ago, you already had the phenomenon of people who, the horror films used to always be done from the perspective of the victim. You have the universal movies where you had the mummy or something, and it would be coming at them very slowly.
Starting point is 02:21:46 And it was always from their perspective. And the monster didn't really have a personality. Then they started making it more and more about the killer or the monster. And then doing these slasher films from the perspective of the monster, making them the hero, you know, doing that with Silence of the Lambs and other things. But now it's become very obsessive about it. So many films in the last year about cannibalism. Now, even though there's movie after movie being made, put on the film festivals and talks about how, you know, the particular film festival, the con film
Starting point is 02:22:25 festival, the audience, uh, jaded Hollywood viewers leave the screening throwing up because of the graphic stuff that's shown on it on the screen. Uh, in spite of that, you know, they keep doing this, these cannibal films, one after the other satanic sacrifice films, one after the other. Do you think that influences people? Is that by design? You know, army hammer, uh, I think he's a grandson of Armand hammer. Uh, he did a couple of cannibal films and then some things came out about how he is physically abusive allegations.
Starting point is 02:22:59 Many people made about how he had been physically abusive with women while he was married to someone else. And then, uh, they said, when I went beyond that, you know, he wanted,
Starting point is 02:23:09 uh, to get into cannibalism and things like, so within mainstream Hollywood, even though the directors are pushing these things out, he went a little bit beyond where they want to take us at the moment, but that's the trajectory where they're going, normalizing that with everybody. And so now he has been ostracized within the acting community
Starting point is 02:23:31 because he did or talked about in real life what he had been portraying on the screen. And that's where we are with this. They keep pushing it. Based on social media comments about the murder, local residents seem more concerned about the effects of drugs than about the possible satanic sacrifices. See, that's the problem.
Starting point is 02:23:54 They don't understand how the unseen world and the satanic is connected to drugs. They don't see that as a doorway, as a connection. They don't have the discernment to see that. Thousands of convicted pedophiles in California are getting less than a year of prison time. This is an investigation by the Daily Mail. And it's pretty amazing the light prison sentences that are getting handed out.
Starting point is 02:24:23 What they did was they went in and they analyzed the California database of sex offenders. Shows that thousands of child molesters are being let out after just a few months, despite the sentencing guidelines. This was something, by the way, that came up in the Supreme Court confirmation hearings of Brown Jackson. The fact that she was not following the guidelines for child pornography and things like that. Oh, I just think they're too strict. And this is what is happening. This is what the left wants to do because this is all being pushed by Gascon and Soros
Starting point is 02:25:01 district attorneys. More than 7,000 sex offenders were convicted of lewd or lascivious acts with a child under 14 years of age, but were let out of prison the same year they were incarcerated. Not even a year. Not even a year. And they said others who committed some of the worst child sex crimes on the statute books served similarly short sentences, including 365 pedophiles convicted of continual
Starting point is 02:25:29 sexual abuse of a child, spent less than 12 months in prison, three cases of kidnapping a child under 14 with the intent to commit lewd acts or lascivious acts according to the data. They're not punishing this. Why? Again, it goes back to people like the L.A. District Attorney George Gascon and the radical prosecutors that are turning criminals out on the street, including pedophiles out on the street. They are supported by Soros to do just that. But culturally, look at how widespread this is throughout Hollywood.
Starting point is 02:26:09 People over the years have talked about this type of thing. You had, name escapes me, Rosemary Baby's director, who was Roman Polanski, who became an exile because of that. But he is dearly loved by Hollywood. A lot of people trying to get him amnesty to bring him back. Here's a guy who is Saturday Night Live former, I don't know, it's been years since I watched Saturday Night Live, Horatio Sands. He's just settled a sexual assault lawsuit of an underage
Starting point is 02:26:48 fan at a Saturday Night Live party. Now, he settled this lawsuit, accused him of sexually assaulting an underage superfan while at a cast party as Will Ferrell and Tina Fey allegedly looked on. So the accuser brought the case anonymously in 2021 as Jane Doe. But you might ask, why is there no criminal prosecution of this? Well, because there's a statute of limitations on that. If you are abused as a child, you've only got three years to report it. And they have done this very deliberately because they know that kids cannot come to terms with this. And so the only recourse that victims have is to do a civil lawsuit because the criminal system has embraced
Starting point is 02:27:40 this, no less than what you see with the L.A. district attorney. They embrace this with the statute of limitations. I talked about this before when you look at Dennis Hastert, a guy who was a homosexual pedophile as a wrestling coach, groomed by the Democrats. No, I'm sorry, it was Republicans, wasn't it? And then he became the longest- longest serving Republican Speaker of the House. And then one of his victims, who was now grown up, started blackmailing him. You know, it's not going to get anything out of the legal system. Did not file a lawsuit. Instead, threatened him with going public with that. And so he pulled out some of his money to pay him,
Starting point is 02:28:28 and then the bank questioned him on it. So then he started structuring the withdrawals, which doesn't have anything to do with paying taxes or anything. Why should that be a crime? It shouldn't be. And I said, why are they going to lock him up for withdrawing his own money? That's not a crime. And then completely ignore what he did with pedophilia. It says so much about our politics and our politicians and our system, doesn't it? I said they could easily fix this. You could have the state where he was in could have changed the statute of limitations. And then they could have prosecuted him for that.
Starting point is 02:29:09 You could have the Congress do it, if you will. I think that type of thing needs to be done on a state-by-state basis. But nobody wanted to do anything about that. Instead, they put him away for something that should not be a crime, but is. You have John Nolte at Breitbart. I'm glad that he's finally gotten off of the vaccine beat. Boy, I tell you, he was off the rails when it came to the vaccines and the pandemic stuff. But his beat really is entertainment.
Starting point is 02:29:34 And he points out that Disney's gay and green film called Strange Love will lose $147 million. Over Thanksgiving, the child groomers at Disney again sought to groom your child, and they lost $147 million. Disney's latest $140 to $180 million, not counting promotion costs, animated feature, is all about spreading environmental propaganda
Starting point is 02:30:01 and exposing your child to adult sexuality. One of Strange World's lead characters is a gay teenage boy in love with another boy. This plot has nothing to do with teaching children tolerance for people who might be different. This has everything to do with LGBT grooming. That's what Disney's become. Advocates. Evangelists for this.
Starting point is 02:30:26 Disney even tried to hide the fact that Strange World featured teenage homosexuality. It didn't work. Disney's predatory embrace of child grooming, drag queens, and advocating the mutilation of children on the altar of the sicko trans movement is no longer a secret. The Disney brand is forever damaged. Decent parents no longer trust Disney, nor should they. The early estimates for Strange World's opening weekend, the normally lucrative five-day Thanksgiving holiday, started right at around $40 million last year. Under the exact same conditions, Thanksgiving opening for Disney's Encanto opened to $41 million, but a lot has happened since last Thanksgiving. Namely, Disney outed itself as pro-grooming, featuring homosexuality in the Toy Story movie Lightyear.
Starting point is 02:31:14 The result is that Strange World ended its five-day opening with a disastrous $18 million. Worldwide, it grossed only $28 million. Maybe turning your $250 million investment into the equivalent of a guy in a van holding candy and a camera is a poor way to do business. Well, that's what Disney has become, isn't it? He has another article about what is happening on Broadway.
Starting point is 02:31:47 A play portrays pedophiles as sympathetic victims, as sympathetic and the victim as a whiner. See, this is why I say they are moving the culture, always have been, the movers and shakers of culture in Hollywood. They're not reflecting it. They're creating it. They're degrading it. Washington Post reviewed a scintillating new play, as they called it. It's called Downstate. It ruminates on the idea that punishments inflicted on some pedophiles are so harsh and unrelenting as to be inhumane.
Starting point is 02:32:22 The pedo is the victim in all of this, they say. In the review, they say, the playwright has loaded the dice to some degree as the predators are depicted not as monsters, but rather as complicated, troubled souls. And then it gets worse, he says. And we've seen this. I'm a minor attracted person. And we need to add that to the different genders or whatever in the LGBT rainbow. I'm not acting on it. I'm just attracted to minors. So, hey, that's my thing. That's the way I was born. Except they don't believe that you're
Starting point is 02:33:02 locked in. That's what the whole transgender movement is about. That's what I say. It is that transgenders have gone to war with the lesbians, and they've really gone to war with the gays as well. Because it used to be, oh, we're going to search for the gay gene, and you're born this way, and it is deterministic because of physical aspects. No, now with the transgender thing, everything is in your mind. They just did a complete flip, just like the climate MacGuffin. It was all about a new ice age, and the earth was going to freeze. And all of a sudden, after a few years of that,
Starting point is 02:33:33 oh, let's just switch it, go 180 degrees, and everything's going to, all the polar ice caps are going to melt, it's going to be global warming. That's what they did with transgender. They just flipped the script on all the LGB stuff with a tease. So Andy the victim arrives to confront Fred,
Starting point is 02:33:50 the man who had molested him as a child. The playwright cannot hide his scorn for Andy the victim, who has made a successful life for himself as a Chicago finance guy and now seems intent on some kind of purging reunion with the man who molested him as a Chicago finance guy, and now seems intent on some kind of purging reunion
Starting point is 02:34:07 with a man who molested him as a child on a piano bench. The meeting seems to be part of Andy's therapy, which downstate implies might be advisable, but at this point also suggests that it is, quote, an indulgent marinating in self-pity. So the victim, the adult victim of this child molester, is the bad guy. Marinating in indulgent self-pity. Context is everything, says the Washington Post. Andy stumbles through a recitation of his psychic pain, this is the victim, and suffering. We have the physical evidence of the price that Fred, the molester,
Starting point is 02:34:49 has already paid. He was beaten into a cripple in prison. And so the juxtaposition in this play feels cheap, says the Washington Post. There was a way, I think, to acknowledge the damage that's been done to Andy without judgmentally minimizing it. The playwright wants us to sympathize with the molester and see the victim as indulging in self-pity.
Starting point is 02:35:19 And so, as Nolte points out, he said, think about what we've had shoved at us in just the last few years. The drag queen story hours, the homosexuality in Disney movies and TV, government-run schools encouraging kids to mutilate themselves, grown men in high heels sharing locker rooms with young girls. Tony-winning playwrights now portray child molesters as sympathetic and their victims as indulgent, self-indulgent. So, as he points out, all this is to destroy traditional religion and have sex with your kids. No, I think it is to oppose Christ. It is an antique. I don't care about religion.
Starting point is 02:36:08 You know, religion is a formality. It's things that you do, but this is about attacking Christ. And they're not stopping with this. HBO, you're talking about Disney, you're talking about Broadway, of course, Broadway, but you know, HBO, The White Lotus Season 2. Never heard of this, but you've got multiple articles coming out. Fans left in utter shock by unexpected gay sex scene. So we got incest now being pushed along with cannibalism, along with pedophilia. There is no end to what this cesspool of entertainment is pushing on people. As one person said, the uncle and his nephew, I want to claw my eyes out.
Starting point is 02:36:58 And I want to watch the rest of the season right now. You see? That's what America has become. Whoa, whoa, that was so shocking. I want to see more. A kind of sick voyeurism is what Hollywood has trained us. That and passivity. The way the Daily Beast reports it. The White Lotus just took a turn, a berserk turn, incestuous turn. And then they go on and on to talk about what a genius move it was
Starting point is 02:37:28 for all of this stuff and how entertaining it really is. That is the sickness that we are now confronting. Before I take a break, let me talk a little bit about this. Just mentioned Sam Britton a little bit. The pup play gender fluid nuclear bureaucrat accused of felony luggage theft. He's alleged to have stolen a woman's suitcase at the Minneapolis St. Paul airport. Who saw this coming, right? I mean, just stop and think about how degenerate the Biden administration is.
Starting point is 02:38:03 I mean, look at the stuff that has surfaced about Hunter Biden, about Joe Biden himself, and then look at the constellation of characters that he has put around him. He's also a proud pup handler and identity, because leftists always have to have identities. The more the better, says American thinker. That sees him and his sex buddies dress up like puppies for fun. It's unclear if real dogs are involved.
Starting point is 02:38:31 Brinton is so passionate about his self-acknowledged kink that he lectured on the physics of kink at the University of Wisconsin. He's also a member of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a 501c3 drag group that mocks Catholicism, where he rejoices in the name of Sister Radioactive. Oh, that's so clever. He also is associated with the Trevor Project, which is where he can groom young submissives.
Starting point is 02:39:02 The Trevor Project is an outreach to help troubled transgender teens and to groom them. Uh, so that people like Sam can have access to them. Sam Britton was charged with a felony theft after he allegedly stole a woman's luggage at the Minneapolis St. Paul airport. Although,
Starting point is 02:39:21 um, the complaint does not say what was in the bag, but the woman has asserted that the bag and its contents were worth about $2,300. Surveillance footage shows Sam Britton removing a bag from the luggage carousel and removing the luggage tag, which he then placed in his purse, at which point he then left the area at a quick pace. I guess he was not too hard to spot. He does stand out in a crowd. The woman whose bag was stolen reviewed the surveillance video
Starting point is 02:39:52 and said, that's the bag. That's my bag. The complaint further alleges that Brinton went from the airport to an intercontinental hotel where he was observed checking in with a blue bag. Two days later, he was back at the Minneapolis-St. Paul airport to fly back to D.C., and he had the same bag with him. Apparently, he also took the bag with him on a trip to Europe, returning with the bag on October the 9th.
Starting point is 02:40:14 So the police phoned him, and they started questioning him, and his stories kept changing. That's the type of thing we see from Fauci, from Biden. First version that he gave was, not that I know of. Version number two, if I'd taken the wrong bag, I'm happy to return it, but I don't have any clothes for another individual. That was my clothes when I opened the bag. Oh, really?
Starting point is 02:40:38 His clothes somehow got in her bag. Version three, he wasn't being completely honest, quote unquote. He took the bag by accident because fatigue made him think it was his. Once he realized what he had done, he got nervous and he didn't know what to do because he thought somebody might think that he stole the bag. And it was just a, you know, mistakes were made, that type of thing. He's looking for amnesty, I guess. The police told Brenton how to get the bag back to Delta so it could be returned to the woman, but the complaint, which was filed in the end of October,
Starting point is 02:41:08 says that the woman still did not have her bag back, and additionally, the clothes were missing. He and his attorneys in the Department of Energy have all refused to say anything. So,
Starting point is 02:41:24 what does this say about a culture? I got one last article I hear, and then we'll take a quick break here. Trinity College Dean defends a graphic sermon claiming that Jesus had a trans body. Now, I'm not going to talk about all the disgusting imaginations that this guy had, but it's the Dean of Trinity College, Cambridge, defended a woke and highly graphic service
Starting point is 02:41:50 in which the academic likened depictions of Jesus to a trans body. He said that Christ's wounds were like a bleeding female and that he had a trans body. This guy has absolutely no idea about the blood of Christ. It really is sad. He's absolutely clueless about what all this is. It's as clueless as the Romans who said, well, I think the early Christians, I think they're engaging in cannibalism
Starting point is 02:42:29 and drinking blood and that type of thing. Not that at all. And Christ's simultaneously masculine and feminine body, he said in these works, if the body of Christ is, as these works suggest, the body of all bodies, then his body is also the trans body, that he is both male and female at the same time. This guy is so heavily vested
Starting point is 02:42:53 in a secular worldview that he doesn't even attack Jesus along the traditional lines of, how can he be God and man at the same time? Oh, no, no, no. He's male and female at the same time, which makes him trans. It is, you have people occupying the pulpit that are literally antichrists. Despite leaving congregants in tears,
Starting point is 02:43:22 the dean of Trinity College defended this other person's sermon. The person who delivered it was named Heath. The dean said that it suggested that we might think about these images of Christ's male and female body as providing us with ways of thinking about issues around transgender questions today. You see, it's a religion, and everyone, including Christ, has to be transformed and conformed to their religion. They demand this. This is not just the one guy that's an outlier. This is the institutional view. They're going to defend this. So, congregants complained that the
Starting point is 02:44:02 sermon was heresy. Some claiming that they felt violated, unwelcome in the church. One wrote, the contemptuous idea that cutting a hole in a man through which he can be penetrated makes him a woman. Now, this is the sickness of these people. And this is, again, like I said, I'm not going to get any more into what was said about it. One person said, I'm contemptuous of the notion that we should be invited to contemplate the martyrdom of a trans Christ. This is a new heresy for our age. And that's where we are.
Starting point is 02:44:37 A new kind of heresy for our age that is being sold by the establishment. Church of England, as I point out in this article from Breitbart, has long been using Christianity as a vehicle to promote woke identity politics, that is being sold by the establishment. Church of England, as I point out in this article from Breitbart, has long been using Christianity as a vehicle to promote woke identity politics, declaring God as gender neutral as long ago as 2018. God does not declare himself as gender neutral. We have some translations of the Bible that want to be inclusive. They don't want to embrace the narrative that we are created in God's image,
Starting point is 02:45:12 that God created man first and then created woman out of God. And so they go in and they change all the pronouns and a lot of the newer translations in order to be inclusive. And this is what these people are, the excuse that they're making. We're trying to embrace society as it is. We have all sorts of people, and we need to train ourselves to talk about Jesus as being all sorts in this context. No, they're simply creating God in their image as they would like to see him. And this is exactly what is used to tell people, well, you don't want to, anything that you say that is going to make people feel bad is not going to be allowed.
Starting point is 02:45:53 We're going to criminalize that kind of speech. We don't want anybody to feel uncomfortable. And we have to conform to the world rather than transcending it. And by transcending it and transforming it, that's where the trans comes in. They have completely perverted everything about the gospel. We're going to make a quick break, and when we come back, we're going to talk about what's happening with the pharmaceutical side.
Starting point is 02:46:19 They're finally admitting that the majority of people, they say, that are dying with COVID are the vaccinated people. They're finally admitting that, but they've got to spin on it because they can't quite come clean. We'll be right back. Sous-titres par LaVacheSquid And now, The David Knight Show. I have a couple of listeners who sent this to me, and it's taken me a while to get to it. I had this on my stack of articles yesterday, and I didn't get to the pharmaceutical stuff.
Starting point is 02:47:39 So I want to make sure I get to it today. As Joseph wrote, he said, Sir, you've been right about this the entire time. As The Washington Post says, the vaxxed are the majority of COVID deaths. Well, we knew this even before the Washington Post admitted it, even before as Lance sent this to me, listener Lance said, happy Thanksgiving, had to have a chuckle on the US military media propaganda machine. The reasons as to why more vaccinated people are making up more COVID 1984 deaths is hilarious. Thanks for all you do have a nice Thanksgiving.
Starting point is 02:48:12 So he sent the link from stars and stripes. So this is now becoming a, you know, talking point for the media and, and they have, they can't avoid it anymore. So they have to spin it. That's reality.
Starting point is 02:48:28 COVID is no longer mainly a pandemic of the unvaccinated. Here's why, says Stars and Stripes. As they point out, they say 58% of coronavirus deaths in August were people who were vaccinated or boosted. Well, I guess they don't have any real immunity then, right? See, that's the whole thing about the booster stuff. Real immunity, if you have something that gives you real immunity to a disease, that was the whole idea behind a vaccine.
Starting point is 02:48:57 And if you have real immunity, if you've trained your body, your immune system to recognize a disease, your immune system does not forget. That's how we have, you know, once you get measles, you're done. You're not going to get it again for life because your body's not going to forget that. I had it as a child and I have to worry about it again. But if you get a measles vaccine, it may make you sick. It may give you autism. It may give you other issues, but it doesn't give you immunity to measles. And I talked about this for a decade, at least, uh, talking about how, Oh, look, we got another measles outbreak amongst people who are all vaccinated
Starting point is 02:49:38 patient zero vaccinated twice in New York for people, all of them vaccinated, some of them twice. We had that little outbreak in California, and that was used as justification to force people to get a, force kids to have an MMR shot, or they would not be able to go to a private religious school, even if that violated their religious beliefs. And that's when you had Trump saying, they got to get it. They got to get the shot. It's really going around now. It's not any issue.
Starting point is 02:50:13 You know, people would get sick and that would be the end of it. But now they are pushing a vaccine for RSV. And I told you this was coming. I was listening to Pandora and I kept getting all of these ads from GlaxoSmithKline, I think it was. I think it was GSK. It might've been Merck. But anyway, all these ads about RSV. And you got to be careful about it. And I said, well, I know they're developing a vaccine and they're going to rush this thing to market. And they're laying the groundwork for it. And they were not the only company that was doing it. Others were doing it as well.
Starting point is 02:50:49 But listen to what they're doing now. Because they're taking something that was an ordinary childhood vaccine, same way they did with measles, I mean, an ordinary childhood disease. RSV is a normal childhood disease, just like measles was and mumps and all the rest of that stuff. And, you know, you would get it as a child, hopefully, because you'd be able to deal with it better as a child. And then you would have lifetime immunity. And it was very, very rare that you'd have any complications.
Starting point is 02:51:15 Well, same thing is true of RSV, something that kids get. And it's very rare for them to have complications. But now they're turning this into fear and panic. And they are using this as justification to vaccinate unborn children. Listen to this. Most children go through respiratory syncytial virus. Some of them might develop bronchiolitis and they might need a little spell in hospital. One of my children did.
Starting point is 02:51:43 But for the rest of them, when they had RSV, which was pretty normal, most children have had it, they make an unremarkable recovery. So we do not need a vaccine. And yet what we can see coming down the line, terrifyingly, is more vaccines. So here we go with an RSV vaccine that's on the horizon. How fortunate is that? But even more terrifying, and I've only just found this, this came out of Endpoints News, Pfizer have declared that they're going to bring out a new vaccine, PH111, which is going to be given specifically to pregnant women. So what they're planning on doing is immunizing a newborn baby whilst they're in utero. Now, these are the plans ahead.
Starting point is 02:52:33 I mean, they're absolutely, I don't know what to say. Isn't that amazing? You know, we're supposed to believe that these are not humans, right? But now we're going to vaccinate them before they're born in utero. Can't do enough. You know, we vaccinate pregnant women. We, you know, we're now finding this mRNA stuff in the breast milk and all that. But now let's keep pushing this.
Starting point is 02:52:58 And now we have a new thing we want to vaccinate them for. There'd be no end to this. No end to it at all. So getting back to this admission that you have 58% of what they identify as people dying from coronavirus, being people who are vaccinated or boosted, we can no longer say that this is a pandemic of the unvaccinated, says this folks. Anthony Fauci, the nation's preeminent this is according to stripes military propaganda Anthony Fauci the nation's preeminent infectious disease expert used his last White House briefing Wednesday ahead of his December retirement to urge Americans to get the
Starting point is 02:53:40 recently authorized Omicron specific boosters. Well, you know, obviously these things don't work. They're not training the immune system. If they did, it would remember. The final message I give to you, he says on this podium, is please for your own safety, for that of your family, get the updated COVID-19 shot as soon as you are able and eligible. It's new. It's improved.
Starting point is 02:54:05 Maybe this time it'll work. Who knows, right? We have Dr. Fauci. He is a pillar of the public health community. Can you believe this obsequious publication? From HIV and AIDS to Ebola to COVID, he has kept the American public informed and prepared through multiple crises. It was an honor having him in the briefing room to remind Americans of the importance of getting vaccinated.
Starting point is 02:54:31 So, as I point out, a large majority of Americans have received at least their primary series. This is how they spin it. So it makes sense that vaccinated people are making up a greater share of fatalities. They've already done this, run this game, this explanation game in the UK a long time ago. I said, well, you know, the reason that you're seeing so many people that are vaccinated getting sick with COVID, dying from COVID or with COVID,
Starting point is 02:55:00 is because so many people have been vaccinated. Well, here's the situation. If you've got about 60% of the deaths, and it's more than it is of the unvaccinated, they're saying, well, that's because 60% of the people are vaccinated. If you were to have tested this in terms of its efficacy as the way that they have always done vaccines, they would not expose somebody to a disease to see if it stopped them from getting the
Starting point is 02:55:29 disease, to see if it trained their immune system. Instead, what they would do is they would take the control group that had, you know, they would have a control group that got a placebo. They'd have another group that got whatever it was. It was, you know, the vaccine that's supposed to protect you from getting the disease. And then they would let them circulate around for two, three more years, and then look to see the incidence rate of disease to determine whether or not it was effective. Well, they don't do that anymore. You see, at this point, if they'd followed the testing procedures two years into
Starting point is 02:56:05 this, they would have looked at it and they would have said, well, there's no difference between the vaccinated and the unvaccinated population, or it's worse for the vaccinated population. How convenient that they violated all their testing protocols and never tested the vaccine as they said they were supposed to. Now we can see it. And now their justification is, well, you know, you got all these people, you know, we got more people who've been vaccinated, and so, you know, it works out. What it shows is that your vaccine doesn't work,
Starting point is 02:56:35 does nothing to prevent this. It does nothing to prevent it from, and that ignores, of course, all of the safety issues as well, which they love to ignore the safety issues. When we look at David French, for example, he says, one of the saddest phenomena on the online right is the absolute fury at those of us who supported COVID vaccines and continue to support COVID vaccines. Well, you know why we have fury, David? It's because you push something on people that is killing them.
Starting point is 02:57:08 You're looking the other way. You're spinning the data. Even under any circumstances, it shows that it is ineffective or even worse than not having it at all. He said he pointed out that 100% vaccination could have prevented 300,000 deaths between January the 1st, 2021, and April the 30th, 2022.
Starting point is 02:57:32 Well, that's total BS. It's just like I said at the beginning of the program. How did these people predict that there's going to be an 8% increase in retail sales? How did AAA predict that how many people are going to be traveling? They don't have the ability to do any of that, to predict the weather, to predict the climate. These are models and these people are model liars. The life insurance payouts, this is from the Wall Street Journal,
Starting point is 02:58:00 life insurance payouts hit a record $100 billion in 2021. Why are people dying? Well, Wall Street Journal says it's likely COVID-19 deaths. Likely, likely. They have no proof of that. It's just what we saw with the America One insurance company, or it was One America. I forget which one it was. But, you know, that was out of Indiana and the CEO said, we, this is like more than two or three standard deviations from the mean.
Starting point is 02:58:29 What we've seen, something is happening here. Third quarter of 2021 and fourth quarter. Well, what coincided with that coercing people to get a vaccine in order to keep their jobs? He said, we've just, it's been off the charts. And he says, and they're not dying from COVID. They're dying from all this other stuff. But he said, I know that it must be COVID. They just haven't tested it properly.
Starting point is 02:58:52 So I know that they're wrong. I know that it really is COVID. And furthermore, I know that nobody is going to die if they're vaccinated. So this is the unvaccinated. Therefore, I'll recover my lost money by raising insurance rates for unvaccinated people. See, that's the prejudice that these people have and the process for which they run this thing through. So we have a famous another celebrity. They can't hide the celebrities.
Starting point is 02:59:21 We've got a 30-year-old crypto guy, dies, high-profile individual, dies suddenly, unexpectedly. Nobody knows why, they say. Eric, the trainer, dead at 53, a fitness personality trainer, died unexpectedly. Sudden adult death syndrome. And they have no explanation for this. It just continues to happen. Cause of death is yet to be announced and determined. And yet we have the Pfizer CEO who was saying that it should be a crime to give out any false information about his vaccine. Has been found by a British organization, UK pharmaceutical watchdog. He's been found to have given out misinformation himself about his product,
Starting point is 03:00:08 saying that it was safe for children. Dr. Albert Borla, in an interview with the BBC last December, claimed, quote, there is no doubt in my mind that the benefits completely are in favor of vaccinating youngsters aged 5 to 11 against COVID. COVID in schools is thriving, he said. This is disturbing significantly. Well, you know, the problem is these people, these liars, are so arrogant that they don't even bother to try to gin up some fake stats.
Starting point is 03:00:39 They don't even bother to come up with a way to spin the stats. They just throw the lies out there, and that's what he got caught on. The fact that this is the Prescription Medicine's Code of Practice Authority in the UK, the pharmaceutical watchdog. They said in a code of practice panel convened, and they said there is simply no evidence that healthy school children in the UK are at significant risk. To imply that they are is disgracefully misleading. simply no evidence that healthy school children in the UK are at significant risk, to imply
Starting point is 03:01:05 that they are, is disgracefully misleading. So Borla himself is involved in criminal misinformation. Criminal misinformation to benefit himself, and he had called online for people who talk about his product in ways that he doesn't agree with it to be prosecuted as criminals. Fauci, meanwhile, in his, um, you know, he had seven hours of testimony. This guy is just talking, talking, talking. He had seven hours of testimony last week in a lawsuit. And, um, then he goes on Sunday's broadcast of Meet the Press. And now he says, I got a completely open mind about a lab leak theory. Well, again, that is still yet another one of his lies.
Starting point is 03:01:55 Gain of function? Well, it's probably gain of Fauci is what it really is. So he says, what we can do is to, you know, once and for all sort of figure out where the lab leak is a viable theory. Right. So, yeah, I'm totally open to that. Look, the jab is the bioweapon. Forget about this other stuff. The number one word, by the way, last year, according to Merriam-Webster, the most searched for word was gaslighting.
Starting point is 03:02:25 Appropriate. Because that's what's been going on for the most part. Now, when Breitbart talks about it, they give an example that is focused on fuel, gasoline prices, Biden gaslighting people. They don't want to take on the gaslighting that happened with a pandemic or the gaslighting that happened with the vaccine stuff. The term refers to the practice of intentionally deceiving someone by telling them that the state of the world is not what they perceive it to be. The term is often used in online political debates to accuse opponents of lying, but gaslighting goes beyond lying. To carry out the deception, the perpetrator must be seen to believe the lie
Starting point is 03:03:04 and act as if it were true, interpreting subsequent events through the prism of an illusory claim about reality.
