I'm Garvey Bailey, the host of Happy Enough, a new podcast from The Globe and Mail about our pursuit of happiness. We know people want to live more fulfilling and positive lives, but how do we actually do that? Is there a happiness code to crack? From our relationship with technology to whether money can really buy you happiness, we'll hear from both real people and experts to demystify this thing we're all searching for and hopefully find ways to be happy enough. You can find Happy Enough wherever you listen to podcasts. Using free speech to free minds. You're listening to The David Knight Show. As the clock strikes 13, it's Wednesday, the 31st of January, year of our Lord 2024.

Well, today we're going to talk about hacks. Another hack of the intelligence communities, of all people. And perhaps a hack of more of our privacy. Apple Vision, their headset, I think ProVision or something, is coming out, or Vision Pro, it should be ProVision, because what it does is it provides everything that the surveillance state wants, and not just about the person who's wearing it, but about its surrounding as well.

It's far worse than Google Glass. And finally, the technocracy is being identified by mainstream media as a threat because it's the mainstream media that is part of the government. They're getting concerned about this. But they have some very interesting things to say about technocrats specifically and it helps us to understand where musk and many of these other people are farming revolt glyphosate this is all in the news major lawsuit about the roundup stuff but glyphosate is everywhere we'll be right back well as i said um a lot to look at today we even have uh you know besides the farming revolts we got a lot of propaganda about how you should not grow your own food you need to leave that to the centralized professionals don't try this at home is really what they're trying to push onto everybody. And we have also CPS kidnapping a child, 14-year-old child.

And again, 14-year-old is still a child, still a minor. Kidnapping a child who is 14 years old and taking away from the family, sending them to another state, into into Montana to get gender transitioned. And the parents are having a public campaign, even pleaded with the, you know, Montana, you think of as being more conservative, even pleaded with a governor there, Republican governor. He says, well, I've had the lieutenant governor, who's a lawyer and experienced in these matters, look at it and said everything was done properly. Really? Really?

Are you kidding me? It looks like they may be transporting this child to Canada to be the victim of another mad scientist, because this is mad science, folks. This is where the Republicans are. We're going to talk as well about briefly about the border. I spent a lot of time on it last couple of days. It is very important from a number of issues. I've talked about it from the standpoint of federalism, division of power, the 10th Amendment, and that type of thing, but that's not really what's going on. As I pointed out for the last couple of days, this is all an election year entertainment distraction. And I've got some videos of some people actually at the border to show you what amazing fraud this all is.

The GOP, the Democrats are intent on destroying this country. And the GOP is going to let them. While at the same time, they campaign for the people who think and get votes from people who think they're going to actually do something. They've never done anything. This is why I don't really usually cover it that much. For the longest time, this has been a number one issue on Breitbart forever, the border, the border, the border. I was like, they're not going to ever do anything about it.

They never did anything about it. Then Trump came along. He's making all this noise. Well, maybe gonna ever do anything about it they never did anything about it then trump came along he's making all this noise well maybe he'll do something about it we don't know he didn't do anything about it he's claiming that he did and now he is obstructing even the idea that anybody would do anything about it for his own political purposes because these people will destroy america both republicans and democrats trump and biden will destroy america for their own purposes because of their own perceived self-interest or even out of revenge so uh let's take a look at at what is happening to the news. And let me just get into the general news here. We have, this thing can be really slow sometimes.

As I began saying, a massive ransomware attack. And supposedly a lot of classified information, top secret documents taken from the spies, U.S. intelligence agencies. And we've seen this in the past. Vault 7, remember that? Somebody broke in and stole their secret sauce for how they would hack other people and how, as they were hacking other people, they would disguise themselves as anybody they wanted to be. They could make it look like they were any of their enemies vault seven and first it went to wiki leaks and wiki leaks

published the manual and then somebody else published the code and so then after somebody else published the code wiki leaks published the code as well as well but you could see in it that the cia could hack into things and say well make it look like they're russian chinese north korean uh iranian anything and um then even after that even after that with all the trump russia nonsense and that was all nonsense that was all just uh one faction of the intelligence agencies coming after trump and they said well look you know we've got these things here and it this was obviously done by russians and we can tell oh you can't tell any of that stuff they used to have that ability but with

vault 7 they could make it look you know they could do it and make it look like it was somebody else and of course anybody else could as well. Anybody that was technologically savvy, any nation state and any group of individuals, and so this group of individuals that does a lot of ransomware attacks is called black cat. Um, also known as a L P H V. They're threatening to release this classified and these classified top secret documents. Many U.S. intelligence agencies, including the FBI,

if the company that they stole, that they used to steal this stuff, doesn't pay them a ransom. And so they stole the information from a company called Technica Corporation. And it has one of the military industrial complex suppliers and so it's got a lot of information there leaks of classified and top secret documents the group wrote on its blog documents that are related to the fbi and to other u.s intelligence agencies if technica does not contact us soon the data will either be sold or made public and so one person by the way this is from the daily dot mikhail thalen who i used to work at infowars for a while i know him um good reporter he talked to an analyst at a cyber security firm to assess how damaging this might be, that analyst said, exfiltrated data can be combined. In other words, stolen.

Exfiltrated it. We've taken it. We just call it forfeited data. That's what we say. Because when the government steals from people, they call it forfeiture. I didn't give that. Oh, yes, you did. Exfiltrated, forfeited data can be combined with information obtained in other attacks from other sources.

So breaches can be more significant than they seem. In other words, this might fill in some pieces. If somebody, some state actor wants to put the pieces together, this is going to be some more pieces of a puzzle. Just last month, the FBI and numerous intelligence agencies from across the globe successfully brought down the website of this group, ALPHV, Black Hat also known as. And it's best known for its attack, right, on multiple casinos last year. Remember how they all denied it? Oh, no, it's not a cyber attack.

No, no, no. They always deny it. Everybody always denies that. So Las Vegas temporarily grind to a near halt. The group is also known for targeting critical infrastructure as well as medical facilities, such as plastic surgery clinics. We really are in Brazil, aren't we?

One of the things in Terry Gilliam's life was all of the women in this, this guy was born into one of the elite families, but he's really not on board with the authoritarian totalitarian state totalitarian state but his mom is you know his dad is a passaway and his mom is there and she and all of her older friends are always doing plastic surgery and you got these rubber uh rubber mats that look like skin they're pulling really tight on them and of course they're all leaking you know they've had all kinds of facelifts and things like that and it's all coming apart. It's a constant thing.

So here we are. Yeah, we got now cyber terrorist attacks on plastic surgeries. How Brazilian is that? And so the emergence of the techno authoritarianism, and this is from the Atlantic. The Atlantic is a real big establishment paper, and they always push the NATO agenda and all the rest of this. So that's one of the most interesting things about this aspect, is that they will be blowing the whistle on something that we've all known for quite a while, haven't we? I mean, if you listen to this program,

you've heard me speak about the technocracy, about the roots of Musk and Peter Thiel, and how it influences what they believe in terms of transhumanism and their elitism and their totalitarianism as well. And so she calls it techno-authoritarianism. Well, yeah, it is. And she begins by the quote from Mark Zuckerberg, the one you always hear people say, well, you know, they trust me, those dumb effers, right? But she gives a little bit more context to it. Facebook, about 20 years ago, he was chatting with a friend as he created, as he just created Facebook. And originally it was at Harvard, right? And so he's talking to one of his fellow students and that chat surfaced later on.

And in it, Zuckerberg is bragging and says, yeah, so if you ever need any info about anybody at Harvard, just ask. I've got over 4,000 emails, pictures, addresses, SNS, all this. And the guy says, what? How'd you manage that? He said, people just submitted it.

I don't know why. They trust me, those dumb effers. And so she points out that Zuckerberg and Facebook's early days had adopted the mantra company over country. And talks a little bit about how he got involved and teamed up with Sheryl Sandberg, who had become the chief operating officer. But, you know, I looked at that.

I've always believed that not just in Facebook, but all of these social media companies, the CIA was heavily involved. I mean, they even openly had a venture capital firm. They wanted to do it so badly. Here's our venture capital firm. Come to us. We'll give you some money to set this up.

And they picked the players and then let them compete against each other. May the best shill win, right? Which one of our minions is going to be stronger? We'll pick a whole bunch of people who are going to be minions of ours and we'll do what we say and then we'll let them compete against each other that's really how we got all this social media stuff and

how they operated for years for free to get everybody uh pulled in there and so when he says company over country i thought about that i thought which company is he talking about it's very common for the cia to refer to itself as the company. As a matter of fact, the lawyer, and I can't recall his name right now, the lawyer who wrote a book, he was the one who came up with a euphemism, enhanced interrogation, right, for torture. Everybody agreed the things that he was talking about were torture,

sleep deprivation, waterboarding, all these other things. But he came up with that. He was the chief counsel for the CIA. He wrote his biography and he called it Company Man. They always refer to it as the company. And so I wonder, is the company over country? Does that mean Facebook over country? Does that mean CIA over country? Because mean cia over country because the cia is over our country and the cia is against our country as well and um so um when you when you look at how this whole thing came together, data log, life log, I should say,

life log and the total information awareness, everybody was very upset about that. They said, all right, we won't call it that. We won't do that. And the next thing you know, Facebook is there doing exactly the same thing. So she goes on to say, recall too that the company that is not CIA,

but Facebook's secret mood manipulation experiments in 2012 which deliberately tinkered with what users saw in their news feed in order to measure how facebook could influence people's emotional states without their knowledge now if they were cia front organization of course they would be doing things like that you know going back to the creation of all these intelligence agencies and the CIA, it's always been about mind control, massive propaganda, how can they manipulate people? And that's what the internet is. The internet is all about manipulating people and then having a record there where they

can precisely get feedback to see how effective it is. And you look at this and why would a company, why would a company be motivated to do this? You know, it doesn't, she doesn't understand the motivation. She just finds it puzzling and evil that they would do this. And yet, as we looked at the censorship and knew a long time ago, that the censorship was coming from the government we knew that you could look you could discern that based on who they were censoring and

what subjects they were talking about and the way that it was yeah it was we didn't need to have the emails now we got the emails but we didn't need to have them to know that and you don't need to have the documents to show that it's the cia that is influencing this uh so yeah you know that that lawyer who wrote company man one of the most amazing things about it you look at the moral depravity of these people and john kiryaku who is a whistleblower about the torture said yeah the cia is looking for sociopaths and um you know they get them right up to the line of psychopath and hopefully not over but yeah some of them cross the line this guy uh who wrote uh company man can you look up his name is bothering me now i can't anyway um hicks said uh he was watching the um the hearings the church committee hearings you know where they had they distracted everybody from what the real purpose was the real purpose was

to come after the cia and the nsa for spying on americans that's the purpose of it and the thing that came out of it was the pfizer report but they distracted all americans from ever thinking about our own government spying on us by having the heart attack gun and a whole bunch of other stuff. And so this guy seems like his name is John something. Yeah. John Rizzo. Thank you. Yeah.

My mind is starting to work slowly. Gradually it'll come to bite another 10 or 15 minutes. I would have gotten the last name, but I don't know what I'm going to do when Google completely deep sixes the search engine stuff here. But he said he's watching the church committee hearings. And what was his takeaway from it? They got some really bad lawyers. They need me. I can do better than these guys in terms of covering up their crimes.

That's it. See, all of this stuff is downstream from morality it's downstream from your worldview it's downstream from your relationship with god or alternatively with satan and so that's where this all comes from. But going back to this again, listing, she lists some of the transgressions of Facebook, the company or the CIA trying to manipulate moods of people in 2012. Again, how can we monitor people, but how can we manipulate them? That's what all of social media is about lady i mean it's not just facebook it's all of it is about that and then um it's participation in inciting genocide in myanmar in 2017

or as use as a clubhouse for planning and executing January the 6th, 2021. All of these are CIA type of things. Coups, genocides, manipulating the public, reading their mind. The black op behind January the 6th. And that's not just the agent provocateurs that were there that day it doesn't begin with that it began with the people who lied them into it the judas goats who let them in she says to a remarkable degree facebook's way of doing business remains the norm for the tech industry as a whole to worship at the altar of mega scale and to convince yourself that you

should be the one who is making world historic decisions on behalf of a global citizenry all of this hearkens to our government these people are simply government agents but she doesn't want to talk about that in other words she lays this stuff out and says we need to have more government you know to fix the government created problems of course this will always be their their mantra and what they will offer as a quote-unquote solution so she says silicon valley wall street washington dc he said they're all she said they're all power centers and they're all magnets for people whose ambition too often outstrips their humanity. Like John Rizzo.

He doesn't, she calls it humanity. It's ethics, it's morals. They don't care about any of that stuff. And these are three competing power centers. Silicon Valley, Wall Street, Washington, D.C. It is a magnet. You look at why is Washington so corrupt? Why do we have such bad people running for office? Well, like Willie Sutton, the bank robber,

they asked him, why do you rob banks? He said, that's where the money is. Why is it a magnet for this? Because the money is in Wall Street. The money is in Washington. The money is in Silicon Valley. And it attracts a criminal class. And that's why we don't have any choices for president, folks.

And it also attracts the criminal class who is looking to make vast amounts of money. You have a money-generating machine in Washington with the Federal Reserve and the U.S. government. And if you want a metric of how rapidly we are going down the drain of corruption, just look at the amount of money that's spent on the presidential elections. I've mentioned this several times. In the 2000 election, George W. Bush spent $100 million. And Al Gore accused him of trying to buy the election because he only had 70 million. I mean, all of these, you know, DeSantis, Nikki Haley, Trump, all of them, way more

than that. And just to get started, way more than that. You know, we're up to the point where they typically spend about a billion is spent on their behalf or other things. Why are people putting a billion dollars into it? Is it because they're civic-minded? Is it altruism? No, it's greed.

They know what they can get. I mean, they're buying a place at the table, just like all these NGOs and stakeholders are buying a place at the table of the world government with what they're doing with ESG and all the rest of this stuff, DEI. They're buying a place at the table. All these people are lavishing hundreds of millions of dollars onto these presidential candidates. They're buying a place at the table. And they know that politicians are the best return on investment

you can get anywhere. You can get several thousand percent return on investment at the very least with these guys. You know, you give them some money and then they pass some legislation and then these guys get massive amounts of money out of the public till and that public till has no limit it's unlimited until it all comes crashing down so she says many americans fret about the rising authoritarianism amongst maga republicans but they risk ignoring another ascendant force for illiberalism the tantrum prone and immensely

powerful kings of tech well there is authoritarianism that is rising in the maga republicans but it's an authoritarianism that has already been there for a long time with the Democrat left. They're way ahead of the MAGA Republicans. I criticize MAGA a lot because I think the Democrats are beyond the pale. They're beyond reach. You can't get these people to pull back. They've been doing this for the longest time, putting all their trust in government, trying to demand that they're going to fix everything in Washington,

and they're going to control other people to suit themselves. Now the Republicans have bought into that mindset. The MAGA Republicans, the Trump supporters have bought into that. And it's a very dangerous thing. It's one of the reasons why I talked about the 10th Amendment issues with the border. Regardless of the reality of what is happening there, that's an important discussion to have. And even though they're selling an illusion to the Republican base about

what is happening at the border, if the Republican base looked at this, uh, they could say, well, you know, maybe we need to pay more attention to the state and local things than we do to Washington, um, that would be a little bit of an improvement. But of course the other part of it is once they realize this whole thing is just a hoax it's going to make them more cynical but it'd be better to be cynical and to not put all of your hope into all of this as a matter of fact a comment somebody put up on the

interview that i had yesterday very good interview um aaron day talking about his mission to educate people about cbdc and as part of the description that i posted i said um you know here's here's somebody who has run for office many times himself has helped other people to run for office as he pointed out i don't put any trust in politics anymore we got to figure out what we're going to do on an individual level. And that's a big part of his book to give people first a fictional view of life under CBDC. His book, Final Countdown to CBDC. First, give people an idea of what life would be like, the dystopian existence of it. And then secondly, to talk to them about how they can use crypto, gold and silver. And he says, I use all three of them because I don't want to put all of my eggs in one basket.

You don't really can't predict the future that much to know what they're going to do with it. So you want to be diversified in terms of your hedging. And that's really the way I look at gold and silver as a hedge to this tyranny. And, um, again, you know, um, Tony Artaban, wise Wolf gold, he set up David Knight dot goal. That'll take you to Tony. If you want to start hedging against this totalitarianism, uh, but one person commented

on it and said, well, I don't know. I'm not ready to give up on politics just yet. And somebody commented underneath there and said, you must be new to all of this. I thought that was great. I said, look, pay attention to politics, but view it as a threat, not as a solution. Okay? That's the key thing. It's a threat.

And you need to monitor those threats to yourself, your family, your threat and you need to monitor those threats to yourself your family your community you need to monitor those threats don't get caught up in the illusion that uh you know the boar mirror syndrome if i can just get the ring of power i'll use it for good don't get caught up in that so in a properly functioning world, I think there should be a project of governments said Sam Altman about artificial intelligence. And of course, uh, is that right?

Because we know how the artificial intelligence is going to be used. It's going to be used for propaganda, for surveillance. It'll be used for mass murder amongst other things. So yeah, the government should have that, right? That's how dangerous this guy is is but she goes on to say technocracy blossomed as a political ideology after world war one and we usually pick it up in the 1930s

when you have uh hg wells talking about um the shape of things to come his book and then the movie that was immediately made about that uh the um uh called things to come and you have this elite group of people who get control of the weapons and they're going to lord it over everybody else for our own good i mean just you should see that movie it's it's disgusting but it really does lay out the technocratic arrogance and pride about how they are better than everybody else and you see that movie it's it's disgusting but it really does lay out the technocratic arrogance and pride about how they are better than everybody else and you see that echoed through these all these people you see it through klaus swab you see it through uval uh no uh harari and all the rest of these people uh they all have that arrogance uh i'm superior

to all of you you know this uh elitism that is there. But she talks about it going back to World War I. She said there's a couple of interesting poets that kind of set the tone for these technocrats. One of them was an American poet, Ezra Pound. The other one was an Italian poet, F.T. Marinetti. And they would say things like Ezra Pound, his slogan was make it new. And the Italian poet who Marinetti, who was on the same page is, was a creation, not contemplation.

And yet these poets were contemplating, weren't they? And they led with contemplation and And then they used it to create something, a very evil idea. All of this stuff, you know, technology, politics, and science and everything is really all downstream from your worldview. It's all downstream from the poets and the philosophers and the, you know, religion and all the rest of this. The ethos for technocrats and futurists alike was action for its own sake. It has kind of a nichism thread to it as well.

We believe that Italy's only worthy tradition is never to have a tradition. These are people who, like Marxists, want to erase everything. You know, new blank slate out here. I want to take everything down to the ground and build my utopian society where I'm the one on top. And in that regard, they're just like the Marxists.

And she's calling them totalitarians because, you see, most of these people, and I hope you're not one of them, is crippled by this worldview of left, right, and center. It's like a line. And as I've pointed out many times, a more accurate way to look at this, that creates problems because you know they they see as they start getting more and more authoritarian and moving to the left or more and more authoritarian and moving to the right they see themselves as oppositional you know as the fascists are

completely oppositional to the marxists no they're not they're exactly like each other. They got to the same point with a different delusion. One of them is escalating nationalism. The other one is escalating internationalism and so forth. One of them is highly ethnic and elitist, and the other one is about the common man type of thing. But they get to the same place, totalitarianism. So if you look at the Nolan chart again, I'll mention it again. If you think of a piece of paper that instead of being a rectangle as a square

and you on one axis, you plot your personal freedom, civil liberties, and things like that on the other one, you plot economic Liberty. And then if you rotate it by 45 degrees, assuming that this is a square, right? And you rotate it by 45 degrees, assuming that this is a square, right? You rotate it by 45 degrees. And then you wind up. Thank you for pulling that up so I don't have to do the illusion here. Scroll down. Yeah, there it is right there.

If you rotate it 45 degrees, you wind up with liberals on the left and the conservatives on the right. And you have a little centrist quadrant there. And you have the authoritarian quadrant. And they have the very very bottom because why because the marxists and the fascists don't support any freedom they're like each other they're not polar opposites it's not left versus right they're exactly like each other and then on the top you've got the libertarian quadrant oh it's not a quadrant but the area where you want to maximize both of those types of freedoms. It's a more accurate way of looking at it.

She's looking at this as somebody who writes for the Atlantic that is associated with NATO and all this stuff and the government. She's probably authoritarian from a different perspective and from the perspective that the government should be making these decisions and not the people in Silicon Valley. She said, so again, you know, this Italian says, we believe that Italy's only worthy tradition is never to have a tradition. And she said, futurists took their zeal for technology, for action, for speed, and eventually it transformed into fascism. Marinetti followed his manifesto of futurism in 1909 with his fascist manifesto in 1919.

Ezra Pound was infatuated with Benito Mussolini and collaborated with him. But again, these people are looking at this. What do they want? They want chaos. They want anarchy. They don't want any traditions. They don't want any institutions, including family. They want to establish their new order. In all these ways, they're just like the Marxists. And of course, just like the Marxists, they don't want you to have any freedom as we see from the World Economic Forum. So he even hosted a radio show where he promoted fascism, where he gushed over Mein Kampf, where he praised both Mussolini and Hitler, Ezra Pound. So it shows how during times of social unrest, she writes. A cultural movement based on the radical rejection of tradition and history, tinged with aggrievement, can become a political ideology.

Bingo. That's where we are. But she doesn't talk about it on the left, does she? She doesn't talk about the Black Lives Matter people who, oh yeah, we are entitled to reparations and all the rest of the stuff. We're going to tear down every statue about the history of America. We're going to tear down the Robert E. Lee statues. We're going to tear down the statue about the history of America. You know, we're going to tear down the Robert E. Lee statues. We're going to tear down the Ulysses Grant statues.

We're going to tear down all the statues, Columbus, everybody. It all has to come down. That's the same spirit. That's on the left. We understand that's on the left. That's the same spirit of the fascist on the right as well. In October, the venture capitalist and technocrat Mark Andreessen published on his firm's website a stream of consciousness document that he called the Techno-Optimist Manifesto,

a 5,000-word ideological cocktail that specifically credits Italian futurists like Marinetti. The essay seems driven in part by his sense of resentment that the technologies that he and his predecessors have advanced are no longer being properly glorified he said um that um uh you know this is his worldview the technocracy worldview and she calls it out but understand where musk is coming from as well as i've mentioned many times his father his grandfather should say josh Joshua Haldeman, at about the same time, the 1930s, he created the Technocracy Party in Canada. And he tried to overthrow elected government

and establish the technical elitists as dictators, essentially. They brought him up for trial. They didn't convict him and send him to jail. But he fled the country and went to South Africa. That's why Musk is coming back from that. And that is his roots. You understand? And we look at Peter Thiel, same thing. And you add to this another dimension that she's not talking about, and that's the transhumanism, the post-humanism, the kind of stuff like, you know, the brain-computer interface. And as Musk is saying, yeah yeah we can transfer our ourselves what is your what are you are you a

bunch of electrical signals in your brain or are you a soul what are you transferring into a machine to live forever now all of these philosophies and it's not on the nolan chart we don't wrestle with flesh and blood and we don't wrestle with philosophies like that in a sense they're used to deceive people but this is all a satanic agenda i believe satan is a real being who is conspiring this stuff i think this is why it goes through multiple generations people will look at families yes, families are involved in that. Institutions are involved in it. But, you know, those are useful aspects for propagating this.

But that's where your conspiracy is. And that is the essence of all this is satanic. The essence of it is pride. Pride was the essence and is the essence of Satan this is satanic. The essence of it is pride. Pride was the essence and is the essence of Satan and of his rebellion. So the world that Silicon Valley elites have brought into being is a world of reckless social engineering. Without consequence, they think, for its architects. And again, selling the same lies from the Garden of Eden. You'll become like God and you will not die.

There is no material problem, writes Andreessen, that cannot be solved with more technology. Technology is their God. This is good news for us. This is good news for us. This is like the Assyrian king, Sennacherib, pulling up his massive army to Jerusalem, to the wall, and taunting the people inside. And so we just need to do what Hezekiah did and turn to God,

say, deliver us from these people who mock you. This is good news for us. Same thing Goliath did before he got taken out with a slingshot. He writes technology should not merely be advancing, but it should always be accelerating in its advancement to ensure that the techno capital upward spiral continues forever. I was just looking at a presentation from one of these technology companies, and he was talking about artificial intelligence, how they were going to lever it, leverage it.

And he says, you know, um, there's an, I forget what the percentages were, but you know, it's like, you know, 10% of what we do is, um, the ideation. What, what is the idea? And then we got another percentage where we started this. But the vast majority of this that really holds us up is the implementation. So if we can kick that off

to the artificial intelligence, we can keep accelerating this. And we got to accelerate. Everything's got to always accelerate. Well, it's got to go faster and faster and faster. More and more change all the time. These people are going to be hoisted by their own petard, blown up by their own bomb.

Actually, they'd be blown up by God. This tower of Babel-like pride in their technology and in the works of man. And so, you know, they said it can even help us with the ideation. You know, we may not even need ourselves anymore. We can just turn the world over to this godlike intelligence that we're creating here. So he says, we must always be accelerating an advancement to quote, this is to quote Andreessen, to ensure the techno capital upward spiral continues forever. And he gets really angry when he talks about anybody who says slow down with any of that stuff because of ethics or because of quote unquote existential risk.

He hates that. Don't talk unquote existential risk. He hates that. Don't talk about existential risk. You know, we're going to go to the stars. We're going to become like gods. There's no ethics. Don't talk to me about ethics. Don't talk to me about risk. Also, one of the hallmarks of really dumb people is thinking,

this is just going to go on forever. It's going to get better and better forever. This market's never going to collapse. You're supposed to be the smartest people on the planet. And their own eye and their, and their own mind. They are. Yes, that's true. Uh, yeah, you're right.

Travis. And he says, uh, we, we believe we should place intelligence and energy into a positive feedback loop and drive them both to infinity and beyond. He didn't say the ambience stuff, but, uh, I don't know. How does that feedback positive feedback loop work when you're on your stereo system or your PA system? It's not a good thing. What it does is it blows out the speakers, doesn't it?

Quick, turn that thing off. That's what we're trying to do. We're trying to pull the plug on this thing by exposing the truth of what it is a positive feedback loop driven to infinity he thinks that this is what he thinks is a good thing uh he goes on to say listen listen to the arrogance and the satanic pride in this we are not primitives cowering in fear of the lightning bolt we are the apex predator the lightning works for us back off from this guy because he's about to get hit by lightning you know this is though the way that he's talking it really does harken back to these early 20th century fascists and futurists to HG Wells,

to the characters that are in the shape of things to come. They talked exactly like this. It's amazing. What a stereotype. Somebody like Mark Andreessen, again, one of the richest guys in Silicon Valley, a venture capitalist who's out there, a proud technocrat like Musk, like Peter Thiel. These people have billions of dollars and they are the seminal money for picking and helping these companies succeed.

They get richer and richer by doing that. Many people who were in the original PayPal group like Musk and Peter Thiel have become venture capital funders. They call them the PayPal Mafpal mafia and they call peter teal the godfather of the paypal mafia and so this is really where they're coming from and we need to understand this we need to understand you need to understand world views and you need to understand the world views of these people you need to understand what their motives are you need to understand what their plans are it's very important to understand that. I mean, we're not talking about politics. This is above politics.

There's a couple of levels above politics here. He says, beauty exists only in struggle. See how much they sound like Marxists? This is one of the reasons why George Gilder calls Silicon Valley arrogant people. He calls them neo-Marxists. And he said one of the conceits that they share with Marx is they believe, as Marx did, Valley, um, arrogant people calls them Neo Marxists. And he said, one of the conceits that they share with marks is they believe as marks did of the industrial revolution. He, he believed that the industrial revolution gave us infinite material goods.

Does that sound familiar? And the only thing that we needed to do was to take control of government, to, to equitably distribute those infinite goods, that we didn't want to have them concentrated in the hands of a few. That was Karl Marx. That was the essence of communism. These people, however, differ only in the fact that they want to keep all of the money. But they still do believe that they have the capacity for infinite production because of their technologies of genetics, robotics, artificial intelligence, nanotech. They believe that they have an infinite material capacity.

These people think that they live in a strictly materialistic world. They're strictly deterministic. And they don't see a creator God. They live in a virtual reality that they've created. Yes, Travis? I was just going to say, what I don't understand is how so many people my age who wanted a Nintendo Wii in 2006 can think we live in a post-scarcity world.

Yeah. And they probably will line up for this uh apple vision pro thing or provision or whatever uh to spend their 3500 and uh won't be able you know probably sell out they're all guess you know the nsa mocked all the people about the first cell phone first smartphones the iphone um and the slide and i've talked about that many times. It was one of the Ed Snowden things, and it was published in Germany by Der Spiegel. But for some reason, American companies did not want to publish this because it was critical of Apple. It was the NSA mocking Apple customers. They said, who would have thought in 1984, and they show the 1984 commercial that introduced the Mac that was anti-authoritarian, that this would become Big Brother.

And they show Steve Jobs holding up an iPhone. And then the third slide was, and that the zombies would line up around the block to pay for it themselves. This is working out even better than we thought, says the NSA. We thought we were going to have to put Big Brother out there and pay for it ourselves. These people are buying their own spy devices, and they've gone crazy for it. And we're the ones who are instituting 1984. And they were laughing about the fact that they were implementing 1984 values on the American public through our electronic devices, through the technocracy. And so he says, we're the apex predators.

We, the lightning, works for us. Beauty only exists in struggle. And again, Marxism, all about the struggle, all about chaos, all about erasing religion and culture and family and every institution. These people are the same way in all of that. It's not just that they have, that they are solely materialists and operating from the conceit that they have infinite capability, but they are also people who want to have a struggle. They want to have chaos as part of that. He said, technology must be a violent assault

on the forces of the unknown to force them to bow before man. He takes a reasonable position that technology on the whole has dramatically improved human life, and then he warps it to reach the absurd conclusion that any attempt to restrain technological development under any circumstances is despicable, deplorable, warp speed, deplorables. You are not essential, all the rest of this stuff. We keep hearing from the Clintons and the Trumps and the Schwabs. Andreessen also identifies a list of enemies and what he calls zombie ideas. He calls upon his followers to defeat them.

What are his enemies? What are the zombie ideas? Well, institutions and tradition, you see. These people want to level everything to the ground, just like Marxists. We have to have a struggle against tradition. And of course course he talks institutions and traditions you know he means religion as well just as the marxist did our enemy he says is the know-it-all credentialed expert indulging in abstract theories and luxury

beliefs and social engineering disconnected from the real world who is delusional unelected and unaccountable playing god with everybody else's lives. Can he not see that that's what he is? I looked at this and it's like, he just described himself. Hey, I want to play God with your lives. Yeah, exactly. That's what he is. I mean, you look at Uber and when they looked at their cars and everything, they had a map

and they called it the God view. People who were in charge of everything, they regularly called them the God-erator instead of the moderator. These people aren't playing gods. They are indulging in abstract theories. They live in luxury. They have social engineering. He's just talking in his whole essay about social engineering, and he is unelected and unaccountable to us. It's like when Nathan the prophet comes to King David, and he gives him an example, and David says, oh, that's horrible.

That guy's got to be now. He goes, you are that man. I'm describing you. Mark Andreessen is so unaware of himself, so unaware of his human limitations, of his pride, that he's projecting this onto other people. And that's like another common thing of the left and of authoritarians is to project this stuff onto other people. The world that they have brought into being over the past two decades, says this writer at The Atlantic, is unquestionably a world of reckless social engineering without any consequence for its architects who foist their own abstract theories and their luxury beliefs on all of us. So she sees it as well.

And then she says, but again, this is The Atlantic. So they're hardcore into leftism. And she still looks at this and it's like, oh, okay. So these people are fascist. That means that they're going to be aligning themselves with Trump and conservatives. She says in 2020, Donald Trump's vote share in Silicon Valley was 23%. It was small, but it was higher than the 20% he received in 2016. Here's a reality check for this lady at The Atlantic.

What this means is that 80% of the people are voting for the already totalitarian Democrats. Already totalitarian. So regardless of her fears and her wishes of painting the right as strictly totalitarian. So regardless of her fears and her wishes of painting the right as strictly totalitarian, and I believe that Donald Trump is totalitarian, I believe that he is incapable of acting except out of his own perceived self-interest or revenge. And he's drawing a lot of people along those lines. That's why I oppose him, because I don't want to see him drawing conservatives who should be our allies, conservatives who understand how harmful the things that he did in 2020, the lockdowns,

the medical martial law, the hospital death protocols, the poison injection. They hate that stuff. Why do they love the creator of all of that? Got to break this delusion from these people. They're under a strong delusion. And so, as she represents a power center of D.C., she says we've got to have more regulation needed of this other power center in Silicon Valley. But she does have some good comments to make.

She says our lives are meant not to be optimized through a screen, but to be lived. In all of our messy, tree-climbing, night-swimming, adventuresome glory, we are all better versions of ourselves when we are not tweeting or clicking likes. But please do click the like for the program. Please like and share the program. But anyway, we're scrolling, scrolling scrolling scrolling scrolling as she points out um she said we do not have to live in the world that the new technocrats are designing for us and we don't have to live in the world that the old technocrats and bureaucrats designed

for us either she said we do not have to acquiesce to their growing project of dehumanization and data mining each of us has agency. No more of this build it because we can. This is something I always saw with people in engineering. Always and never thinking about the consequences of what you're helping somebody to do. You look at this as an intellectual problem. And yeah, we can do that. I think that's the mindset of the engineer. Not thinking about who he's building this for and how that person is going to use it.

No more infrastructure designed to make the people less powerful and the powerful more controlling. Every day we vote with our attention. It is precious. It is desperately wanted by those who will use it against us for our own profit and political goals. And so I think there's a rising pushback and awareness of this problem by some people, at least as being articulated,

whether or not the masses will get it. I don't know. I mean, that's our, our job, isn't it? My job, your job, try to spread this information to people.

And the essence of what we fight in all this, it is a spiritual war, we understand as Christians. And so the essence of this is to cast down these arguments of people like Mark Andreessen. It is to break these strongholds of pleasure, like these devices that entertain us and demand our constant attention. And it is to take captive these ideas that are destroying all of our institutions, including our family and other things like that. I've been going on for quite some time.

I want to read this little excerpt. This is someone else's. This is a Christian perspective, the Boniface option. Andrew Isker is the author here, and he's a pastor. And he describes what they've been able to turn us into. And the technology that she's concerned about and the technocrats that she's talking about, they are just escalating something that has been going on now throughout the 20th century. This is not something that is new.

The escalation and the acceleration is new. But this has been going on for a very long time. He talks about the small-souled bug man. That soulless dystopia. The society that our rulers have engineered. They want children stripped away from loyalty to their parents as much as possible. Which they accomplish through the public education. Loyalty to parents is severed.

Loyalty to usually popular culture is mediated through their peers, or in the worst cases, the ideology of the regime mediated through teachers. As I've shown you, was it yesterday, I think? I showed you those libs of TikTok teachers. One of them a hardcore, committed Marxist revolutionary. The other one, who was a member of a school board. A hyper-sexualized hedonist. Pedophile.

Pushing the stuff to kids. From there, most go to college to be physically separated from their parents totally, in addition to being spiritually and emotionally severed. There they are presented with a pleasure island where hedonism and sexual exploration are the carrot to the stick of ideological cajoling by leftist anti-Christian faculty. The individual who was once a part of an organic whole, part of a family, part of a people, a place, is now separated and stripped bare of all other loyalties and loves, and made a tabula rasa, a willing vessel for the religion and culture of the new world order. From here, he is released into the wild.

He takes a job filling a space in a cubicle, filling a spreadsheet, sending emails until he drives home in a sea of cars, full of lonely people just like him on the freeway until he gets to his home uh it reminds me of the police like lemmings packed into shiny metal boxes contestants in the suicidal race anyway he fills his belly with industrial slop delivered by doDash. He watches porn, browses social media, plays Xbox, binges a show until he goes to sleep and repeats the process all over again. This man has been reduced to a bug in a hive. He is something less than a human being.

He is a drone waiting in his pod until it's time to fulfill his duties as a member of the hive. The things that give his life meaning are all the products for him to consume, products that give him a temporary dopamine rush that sustain the meaninglessness of what his life has become. He is divorced from all other meaning. He is isolated from meaningful human relationships. His moral formation has been shaped by pop culture.

Such a person can easily be manipulated and reduced to his baser appetites. Whatever he must do or believe to preserve his comforts, he will do. It therefore should come as no surprise that the lockdowns were so readily embraced by these types. If you are already conditioned to enjoy life

inside a 12x12 cell, the cubicle at work, so long as you have enough anesthetizing consumerist products, you will submit to any slavery that provides this to you. Even more so when indulging your pathetic appetites can be celebrated as a virtue. He is dehumanized, reduced to an animal in a cage. The moral formation of these people is shaped almost entirely by the entertainment industry from infancy. What a person believes is true, good, and beautiful is not shaped by what their church teaches today, or their parents and their grandparents hand down to them, or even what their nation holds in common. The heart of the modern denizen of the post-war liberal consumerist order is shaped by film

and by recording studios. From before he could speak until he became an adult, he has watched tens of thousands of sermons, sermons, shaping and forming his heart to love Trash World. We don't recognize them as sermons because we think they are religiously neutral TV shows and movies. But they're fundamentally not entertainment, but religious training. And they've become more and more obvious now. To the point where all the subtlety has been removed, hasn't it? Here you are trained to believe that all of those who came before you were stupid,

close-minded, bigoted, barbaric, superstitious. All of Chesterton's fences are torn down. Every tradition that formed you both as an individual and a member of a people or a nation is either removed or looked upon with deep suspicion. You are trained to believe that you are a total blank slate. All your beliefs, everything your heart holds to be true, good, and beautiful, you believe you have formed as a totally independent free thinker, when in reality,

they have been carefully crafted by insidious social engineers to make you the apex consumer. People like Andreessen, the apex predator. If you reverse engineer the beliefs of the average modern man, you would have to conclude that someone intentionally designed him to be that way. A man who lives by the rule, don't ask questions, just consume product and then get excited for the next product. It cannot be overstated how much this must be at the center of the church's apologetics. The modern man will say that he wants rational proof or evidence that the Bible is true, but the reality is he does not. You may even think that he's sincere when he demands such

things from the Christian, but the fact of the matter is apologetic arguments in the post-war liberal consumerist West are not about whether or not you can make a strong rational argument for the existence of God or provide enough evidence to the unbeliever that the Bible is true and trustworthy. While obviously useful, arguments do not matter in this culture class because we're in post-modernism, post-truth, which is what it really is about. It is a just-consumed product. That's what it is. That's absolutely what it is. If someone's moral formation is designed to make them impervious to the truth of Scripture, no amount of even the most brilliant apologetic argument will persuade them to believe.

You can be the greatest living Aquinas scholar or the most brilliant Ventilian presuppositionalist and the bug man is trained to deny the reality that you show him. Showing the bug man how Scripture clearly corresponds to reality will do nothing. Reality does not matter to him. He denies reality. Reality is whatever he wants it to be. I have a truth. You have a truth.

I can be anything I want to be. I can be male or female. I can be any ethnic group I want to be. I can be a furry if I want to. And this is only going to accelerate with virtual reality and the rest of this. That excerpt is from the Boniface option by Andrew Isker. It accurately describes our problem. And he sees a lot of the same stuff that this leftist establishment Atlantic writer sees,

right? They see a lot of the same stuff. She does not see where it's coming from. He does. We're going to take a break before we do on rock fin um audi modern retro radio thank you very much that's very generous i appreciate that audi thank you says hi david your commentary that politics should be seen as a threat that warrants our mere attention is spot on uh yeah it is a threat we need to pay attention to it uh just don't worship it don't don't fall into the idea that

it is a solution these people who present themselves as saviors are the apex predators that's how they see themselves we'll be looking for better information apsradionews.com features articles and commentary along with audio from all the top news from around the world. APSradioNews.com. Thank you. Terima kasih telah menonton! you're listening to The David Knight Show. So let's talk about the next step. Apple's new Vision Pro. And I think we should see this as ProVision for the technocratic surveillance state. Just as the NSA laughed about, who would have thought that this would become big brother of the smartphones, the iPhone.

This is taking it to a new level. As a matter of fact, Travis, pull up that article and show people that picture there. Looks like something out of Clockwork Orange. It looks like a real Rube Goldberg contraption. I'm not talking about the actual device. The actual device has some bizarreness to it because it takes a picture, you know, it's constant, it's got cameras everywhere, all over the outside of it. And, um, that, um, that picture there, Apple's new vision pros, a privacy mess waiting to happen.

Um, it's there under, uh, uh, no, not that, no, the article where they characterize it with, um, um, So that's the title. Apple's new Vision Pro, a privacy mess waiting to happen. Google that. So they said it brings up a whole new dimension of privacy risks. Imagine that you're in a waiting room and somebody sits next to you. You have four iPhones strapped to their forehead. You might relocate swiftly.

Yet that is exactly what is happening when somebody straps on apple's new vision pro headset each of these goggles that's it right there it's like honey i shrunk the world um or shrunk the kids or whatever this is a real rube goldberg thing it was kind of a cross honey. I shrunk the kids and clockwork orange, isn't it? Um, each of these goggles contains the rough equivalent of a head full of iPhones,

two depth sensors, six microphones, 12 cameras, 12 cameras, 12 cameras. That's why that picture there, show that picture again, 12 cameras all over. It's a guy, this guy said they don't even have 12 cameras that's why that picture there show that picture again 12 cameras all over this

guy this guy said they don't even have 12 cameras in that picture 12 iphones in other words they got there and it uses them to continuously track people and to track rooms in three dimensions it tracks every hand gesture every flick, and every couch cushion. You know, we just had Amazon's merger buyout of iRobot, the people that make Roombas, little vacuum cleaners and stuff. And, you know, they have been mapping rooms and things like that. And a lot of people were alarmed by that and said, what if Amazon gets all that information?

And they're going to glean all this information about what is in your house? You know, what kind of, uh, um, not just the layout of your house, but you'll be able to glean other information, but nothing at all like this. And by the way, that, uh, that merger has not happened, but this vision pro $3,500 and it'll. It'll be released on Friday. The next big thing after the smartphone is what Apple sees this as. And folks, if it catches on like the smartphones, this is very bad. It is the next big thing for the NSA and the CIA is what it is.

When you wear one, you see the world around you with computer-generated images and information superimposed on top. And by the way, when we talk about the fact that it not only has all these depth sensors and cameras and all the rest of this stuff, it has big implications for everybody that's around this person. It has big implications for identifying the where in different ways i mean this is way beyond the um the ability for you know we have so many cameras in public areas now and in china and other places where they use this biometric data they can identify people by the way that you walk your gate g-a-i-t probably a bill gates idea

um but i think and it was mentioned uh by several people maybe this is why they told us to stand six feet apart so they could look at the way we walk this thing it goes way beyond that way beyond that um it's not only looking at everybody else the way they walk, but it can know everything about you and even make inferences about your health conditions and other things like that based on how you move your body. This is not a theory. This is the way the people who are looking at the technology

know the technology knows it. This is all actually part of augmented reality as well. You know, there's VR, which is virtual reality. You put on these headsets and you can't see anything and you see pictures of people all the time playing games and running into a wall or something like that or tripping and falling because they can't see anything. The Vision Pro is not virtual reality. It is augmented reality. Of course, it could be used for virtual reality. It is augmented reality. Of course, it could be used for virtual reality as well. But augmented reality means that you are superimposing

AI computer-generated stuff onto the real world. In the past, there's been, I remember a company about 20 years, actually about 25 years ago. And I forget what it was called. I remember it got my attention because it had a pair of glasses for augmented reality. And they wanted to sell it to the military. They wanted to sell it to people who are going to be doing automotive repair, for example. The idea, you know, the killer app for automotive repair, for example, would be that you have, um, uh, you're looking at an engine and this augmented reality would be able

to put pointers and say, you know, this is where the, um, uh, just say where the dipstick is. It'd be more complicated than that, you know, point, point it to you, point out different things and, and kind of guide you along, you know, this thing over here, um, that, that has to be removed and so forth. Um, and so, you know, they even talked about, uh, tourist applications, uh, where you might, uh, go to Rome, for example, you look at the Colosseum and it would reconstruct the missing parts. And it might even superimpose uh romans walking around you know people in togas and things like that so that's that's been kind of the goal of these people now for decades one of the if i remember correctly the company was called microvision

and it was a guy named uh ratowski because i knew somebody with that name no relation but anyway the um uh the thing the reason it got my attention i thought it was so funny you put on this pair of glasses and it had lasers that it could steer and it would basically do a raster scan of the images onto your retina yeah just like an old crt what right um where you've got a you know you've got a gun and it's painting a picture and it keeps restoring that and and it worked under the same same idea it's going to actually use a laser to paint images onto your retina and that's how it got the augmented reality uh what could possibly go wrong with that and And it made me think of that Steve Martin movie, the jerk where he invents, uh, this, this thing that makes everybody go cross-eyed first.

He becomes like a multi-billionaire. Then everybody assumes him when they go cross-eyed, he loses everything. Uh, I don't know if that's what happened to that company or not. I don't think they're around anymore. So maybe that did happen to them. I don't know. Anyway, what happened to that company or not. I don't think they're around anymore, so maybe that did happen to them. I don't know. Anyway, augmented reality, AR, not VR. But augmented reality, AR, you might think of it as anti-reality

because all of this stuff is opposed to reality. So Apple says they've taken steps to restrict some of the data collection by the Vision Pro, including determining what you're looking at even. It is constantly looking at, it's got all these cameras, 12 cameras all around it. It sees the world, but it's also tracking your eyes. And so it can tell what you are looking at at any given point. Now think about how that could be used by somebody who wanted to scope you out, who wanted to blackmail you or whatever.

I mean, you know, or just to identify what you're interested in. They can learn more about you, and this is a major step until they can get this brain-computer interface thing in there where they can start reading your thoughts. They could read what you're looking at. That helps them to infer your thoughts, perhaps. The last time a gadget raised these sorts of societal questions was in 2013 with Google Glass.

It contained a small screen and only one camera, and people worried that it might be used to covertly record them. Google Glass was so reviled that the nickname for people who wore them was glass holes now we want to brace uh for this new thing perhaps the vision pro will call the people wearing vision bros they said i can think of better names um the technology apple and others are inventing to replace smartphones could end up supercharging online problems like location tracking and the loss of anonymity and all these data brokers gathering all the sentiment details of our lives. Folks, that's where our government intelligence agencies have been since they started creating the Internet in the late 1990s. The fastest growing part of our intelligence agencies, as I've pointed out many times, has been geospatial intelligence

to basically do tracking of where you are, to infer what you are interested in, of course, losing your anonymity, but also being able to identify you in terms of your political beliefs your religious beliefs and all the rest of this stuff it is the center of their anticipatory intelligence to try to be able to predict what you're going to do the senior public interest technologist at the electronic frontier foundation says this. Should we as a society really be going headfirst into virtual reality and augmented reality in our lives before we have strong privacy legislation?

Data brokers already have way too much intimate knowledge about everything I do. I don't want them to have this level of knowledge. Well, again, I don't think the government is going to save us with legislation, do you? The only, this is an individual solution. This means that we've got to stop being bug men. We've got to stop being part of the hive. We've got to stop looking for the next thing that is going to entertain us or promises comfort. If only we pay them $3,500 and turn our lives over to them.

We've got to get real. That means we've got to get rid of the virtual reality. We've got to get rid of the augmented reality. Let's just get rid of any of the adjectives and let's just get real. Because you understand where this is headed. I just read that to you. And that's been there since after World War II. That's the direction that they've been pushing us.

And now, because they want to accelerate all this stuff, it is rapidly accelerating. And so, you know, Nikki Haley is a good example of it. The loss of privacy and anonymity. She's so far into this stuff. That when she says, I want to know your name name if you're going to get on the internet she's so far into it she doesn't even realize how creepy she is saying that think about that she doesn't see anything wrong with that everybody else was appalled by that what's wrong with that I need to know everybody's name. That's the, the, the,

the club that she is embedded in. I mean, these people, it's like, um, uh, George HW Bush had never seen a barcode reader before he made a trip into a supermarket.

One point in time, you know, decades ago, 40 years ago. Uh, these people are so detached from the world that we live in that she doesn't even think demanding to know my name. If I'm on the internet, she doesn't even see that as a creepy issue. She sees that as something that the government is entitled to do.

So getting back to the vision pro, as I point out, um, uh, photographs alone are not the biggest concern here that you might get from all of these cameras on people's heads. We know that smartphones, you know, everybody's being filmed all the time. We've got cameras all over the place. Everybody's got smartphones. We've got door cameras, front doors, all the rest of the stuff. So we've kind of come to terms with that, but this takes it to a new level. The new problem is what else the device is gathering. It's getting a map of all the space around you. The device needs to know the contours of the world around you so that it can know where to insert digital things into your line of sight. So it has to have complete knowledge, just like we're talking in the example before about a motor, right? It has to have complete knowledge, just like we're talking in the example before about a motor, right? It has to have complete knowledge of that particular motor before it can make sense of it,

before it can point out certain things and guide you in your repair. And so it must know everything about your surroundings. Total information awareness. Understanding what's in the room around you can be even more invasive than having a photograph of it. Joseph Jerome, a visiting professor at the University of Tampa. Former policy lead on sensor data at Meta's Reality Labs. When I saw this, I thought, wow, that's interesting. It's been about 50 years ago, almost that i met karen at the university of tampa

they didn't have technology there at the time i wound up going to university of south florida because i got into engineering but um surprisingly they got a guy who was a former policy lead on sensor data at meta's reality lab uh vision pro apps have the ability to access this data, he said, if a user grants permission. Just like how an iPhone app will ask you for permission to look at your location if you just click yes, because you want this stuff to work. Now it grabs everything about it. The worldview maps might just look like a wireframe mesh to a human,

but to a computer, it reveals a lot. The Vision Pro might know that it's in a room with four walls and a 12-foot ceiling and window. So far, so good, says Jerome. But then, add in the fact that you've got a 75-inch TV, suggesting that you might have more money to spend than somebody with just a 42 inch set. Since the device can also understand objects, it could also detect if you got a crib or a wheelchair or even drug paraphernalia. You might get swatted by your vision pro, especially if it mistakes something that is not drug paraphernalia for drug paraphernalia anyway um yeah it's going to be making these types of inferences and of course they will it's amazing the kind of inferences that can be made by these devices um you know the the uh fitbit watches and other things like that. Advertisers, data brokers who build profiles of consumers

would salivate at the chance to get this data, and also the government, especially the government. A phone alone, he says, might be able to report that you're generally near a hospital or a strip club. These devices know where you are down to the centimeter, and they're combining it with a bunch of other sensors to know exactly what you are looking at at the same time. On a website for Vision Pro developers,

Apple warns the developers are going to be making the apps that run on this device. It's your responsibility to protect any data that your app collects and to use it in responsible and privacy-preserving ways. So just trust them. They'll never take this information and sell it to the government. No, they'll never do that. The information about you, the metadata about you,

is the most valuable thing they can ever get, and this is really going to multiply this in an exponential way. Information about how you're moving, what you're looking at, can give significant insights not only to a person's unique identification, but also to their emotions, to their characteristics, to their behaviors, to their desires, in a way that we've not been able to before. That a policy analyst at the Future of Privacy Forum.

The Vision Pro tracks your eyes so that you can select things with your gaze in the same way that on a computer you would move the mouse now think of this as the apache helicopters i had a friend who was a missionary in somalia in the mogadishu area by the way And he was there just a little bit before this, everything that's chronicled in Black Hawk Down happened. But he'd be, you know, walking around and he said, one of these Apache helicopters had come over the horizon. And he said, you know, the guns are tracking,

constantly tracking the eyes of the Apache helicopter pilot. So as he's looking around the horizon, the guns are moving that way as well. So, you know, they would come up and they would, you know, the pilot would look at him and the guns would turn on him. And the point of that is all he has to do then is say fire, you know. So be careful what you say if you're Apache helicopter pilot, I guess. But he said it was very disconcerting. You can see that pilot and you can see him look at you

and you can see all the guns turn immediately in that direction as well. So tracking eyes, that's something the military has been doing for a long time. But now it's going to be in your Apple Vision Pro. What about the rest of the body? Developers tell me that apps can get access to a stream of data about users' movement right down to the wiggle of the body? Developers tell me that apps can get access to a stream of data about users' movement right down to the wiggle of a finger. Do you really want to be under this kind of surveillance microscope

and pay $3,500 for it to boot? Talk about somebody desperate for some kind of an entertainment fix. This is it. Sacrifice everything. Researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, that blew my mind when they explained just how revealing data about how your body moves while dancing could be. It'd tell you a lot about me if you watch me trying to dance. I tell you, it would, it can make a lot of inferences about my life. Last year, they discovered they could uniquely and consistently identify about 55,000 different VR users based solely on data

about the movement of their head and their hands. That's it. Like I said, it's amazing the kind of inferences that they can make with this stuff. They said it is as useful as a fingerprint, maybe more. Maybe more useful than a fingerprint. As I said before, their ability to watch the way that people move has been documented for quite some time and at a very long distance as well. used head and hand motion from a game to guess some 40 different personal attributes of people, ranging from their age and gender to whether or not they were a drug user or if they had a disability status. In cases where that motion data is being streamed to the cloud, even Apple has very little visibility into what is happening to it after it leaves the device. Because this data can't be entirely eliminated from most applications,

our suggestion would be to develop a privacy-preserving tool for VR motion data, or maybe just kind of skip the $3,500 device. And of course, the price will be coming down if people don't give it the Google Glass treatment, which they should. I asked Apple what it was doing to protect this kind of data. Its response was crickets. In other words, nothing. Okay, we're going to take a quick break.

When we come back, we're going to talk about the farm revolt about food. And it's not just about food abroad. It is also what is being done, what is happening to us domestically. We'll be right back. If you like the Eagles, the Cars, and Huey Lewis and the News, you'll love the Classic Hits channel at APS Radio. Download our app or listen now at APSradio.com. Thank you. You're listening to The David Knight Show. Just a small town boy drinking

Genetically mortified soy Just a small town boy drinking genetically modified soy. This ensures he doesn't procreate. Please stop breeding. Stop the breeding. We are almost 9 billion people please stop believing right now yeah yeah and so take the food that'll stop people from breathing or you know give us the soy the factory food farmers protesting in europe france germany poland br Brussels, many different places, and they are bringing a lot of different areas to a standstill. Baguettes and bottles of wine were placed on road signs as protesters brought traffic to a halt the last several days across Europe.

Angry French farmers have brought the nation to a standstill, blocking major roads with enormous convoys of tractors as they protest against what they see as excessive EU regulations and low wages. They're doing everything they can to put these people out of business. You can always argue in the past, you know, the economics, what is happening. They're flooding the European markets with food from Ukraine. Ukraine, the breadbasket of the Soviet Union, a very fertile area, and in spite of the fact that there's a war going on there, agriculture is still a major export from Ukraine.

And so they must be put first. Ukraine is more important than what happens to Europeans, according to the EU. And so they must bring their food in, and it's flooding the market. So there's that type of economic competition and subsidies and things like that that are always at play. But of course, there's a whole nother level to it now with the zero agendas, zeroing out everything.

In a display of solidarity, truck access has also been blocked to the port of Calais, preventing the transportation of goods to the UK. Farmers in Germany and Poland were also out protesting against the European Union. In Poland, there are concerns about cheap imports from Ukraine flooding the market as well as the EU green policies. A lot of this stuff too really kind of harkens back to what the EU did to fishermen in the uk before brexit you know you can't go fish and that's what they want to do they want to shut down the farms the a16 motorway is also blocked at the level of access to the cross channel platforms without disrupting traffic in the channel tunnel at this stage they said but who

knows what's going to happen in france roadblocks spreading in many regions coming a day after a farmer and her daughter died when a car crashed into a protest barricade in the southwest said the president of the rural coordination today when we see that all the farmers in france gathering near roundabouts, blocking highways, putting tarpaulins on speed cameras. It shows that they're fed up. It's a revolt. And, you know, when they start putting covers on the speed cameras and start attacking these speed cameras and these surveillance devices,

this is bigger than even the green agenda. This is bigger than subsidies and salaries. It's bigger than the artificially escalated and imposed taxes on fuel. It is, they understand it's a comprehensive agenda. The farmers get it. Jefferson was right. The farmers are the backbone of our society and they get it they're they're attached to reality

they're far more attached to reality than most of us are uh she said farmers for all different backgrounds are joining in the movement because the fight is the same the money is no longer there but it's not about just the money you know that's the farmers union and that's what they're going to be trying to get more of is a better economic deal but it's about much more than that uh the farmers by the way have rejected in france the concessions of the government there and said not good enough they've decided to ramp up pressure on the metropolitan liberal elites they vote for the green agenda policies without feeling the consequences. And this article here is from Breitbart.

They quote the Young Farmers Union spokesperson. So the idea that there are no trucks that conserve the capital to ensure that no product enters Paris, to make Parisians understand that they need farmers to live. I say to our friends in the capital region, it's going to be a long week. You're going to teach these people an object lesson. Oh yeah. You live your privileged lifestyle in the city and you don't really understand where your food comes from and you're fully on board with all this green

agenda. Well, we're going to see about that. And so it is something of a siege. Economic sanctions imposed from the grassroots level. What a novel idea. Did they see that coming? Many of the 140 demands issued by the farmers were not addressed, with much of the green regulations being imposed upon them by Brussels rather than by Paris.

However, again, Brussels meaning the EU government instead of the French national government. However, the government of Macron has been a chief supporter of the green agenda at the EU, therefore will have a difficult time trying to distance themselves from the implications of climate alarmism and based regulations from the eu trade has become a major issue for farmers across europe because of the ukrainian tariffs you know they're bringing in stuff free of tariffs and competing with the eu farmers flooding the market with cheaper products undercutting local farmers marine le Le Pen blamed Macron's Europe, as she called it, for the current plight of the farmers, saying that the president's representatives of the European Parliament backed, quote,

all of the free trade agreements. She said, how can they now declare that they want to fight against unfair competition? They have been in power for seven years. How long are we supposed to act naive? And again, so they've been on board with the EU agenda for all this stuff for a very long time. And it's kind of like when the GOP and Trump say, well, we look at what Biden has done to the borders. It's like, what did you guys do? What did you guys do?

You used it to get elected and then you did nothing about it and so people are starting to wise up to uh this kind of misdirection hypocrisy and lies in order to get power they warn that the city has only three days of food left reports the daily skeptic these net zero policies are the center of it and they're threatening to starve the city, they said. But it's better now than later. Because if you don't do something about it now and they get rid of the farmers and they say, well, you know, I don't like not having any food. Well, you're not going to be able to get it then.

It's much better that you see the logical consequence of these policies and see it now when you can reverse course, we need answers. Said a farmer. This is the final battle for farming. It is a question of survival and we will not die in silence. So again,

they're protesting for an end to the green policies that said are designed to put them out of business. They understand it's about time. The rest of of the country did and hopefully they'll wake people up there's a new documentary to wake people up as to what the dutch government is doing with its war on farmers that documentary is called nitrogen 2000 and again this is the new boogeyman. CO2's not dumb enough. We now have to be alarmed about nitrogen out there. That's one of the reasons why, again, if you didn't see what I, we cut it out as a separate thing out of the program yesterday,

if you look at the video channels. It's very important to look at this company called Summit and their nonsense CO2 pipeline. This whole thing is so patently absurd. It's like satire that we would take CO2 out of the atmosphere or out of other processes, put it in a pipeline and pump it across the United States to be deposited into the ground in South Dakota or North Dakota or Iowa. It's like space balls where you've got

Mel Brooks is a ruler or something. And he's got this new product called Perry air. It's canned air. Just so he can get some fresh air uh he pops the can it's like a soda can pops the air and sniffs the perry air this is what this co2 pipeline is like and the absurdity of this just absurdity on top of absurdity on top of injustice on top of crony capitalism on top of crony capitalism, on top of political corruption. And right at the center of it are Trump and the governors of North Dakota and South Dakota. Doug Burgum is a billionaire working with Gates, fully on board with the CO2 so-called sequestration and things. And South Dakota Governor Christine Holm pushing herself to be trump's vice president and the ceo of summit who trump loved and tried to put in his cabinet in the first administration but they pushed him out now he's gone to mar-a-lago made big donations to trump so

trump is well i'm not really sure even though the people in Iowa said, we don't like this. And he said, well, I'm undecided on this. He's not undecided. He's not going to tell you what he's going to do, but his connections to these people tell you what he's going to do. of canned CO2 injected into the ground is only matched by some of the climate alarmism in some of these states where they say, well, it might get out of the ground. It's like, so what? It's CO2. Maybe you'll get more plants there. CO2 is going to go in the atmosphere. It's nothing at all. It was in the atmosphere. It's going to be put back into the atmosphere. Plants grow using that. They make oxygen using that. It's going to be put back into the atmosphere. Plants grow using

that. They make oxygen using that. Why are people freaking out? What if it escapes? We'll be polluted with CO2 in the area. But then, of course, the big reality that people should be concerned about is the fact that by using eminent domain, they're going to confiscate farms, farms that have been there for centuries and some of these families. And of course, Trump has no problem with that. He's got a history of doing that same thing for his own personal interests. When he had a casino, he's bankrupted something like six casinos.

How stupid can you be? How stupid do you have to be to have a casino go bankrupt? You can't set up the house rules. The house always wins with a casino. How can you go bankrupt, Trump? He did it six times. And we had an up type of event where he had a widow who did not want to sell her home, but he wanted, he bought everybody else's home.

He tried to buy her out. No, I'm not interested in selling. I'll pay you more money. I'm not interested in selling. I'll pay you more money. I'm not interested in selling. More money, more. Finally got tired of bidding with her. And he goes to the local government, says, condemn that property and give it to me.

And they did. And he went bankrupt. I mean, it's just, anyway, the CO2 nonsense. We've got to fight against this stuff. And so nitrogen, same type of thing. So it's being used in the Dutch government. And, of course, the guy that was the prime minister or president, whatever his title was, Mark Rutte, a long, long association with the World Economic Forum, like Chrystia Freeland and Canada and Trudeau and other things like that. Rutte was their guy.

And working with Bill Gates and some other people to establish this as a food distribution hub. This is another scheme of the World Economic Forum. You see, they want to control not only the production of food, but of course, the distribution of food must be controlled by them as well. And that's the other thing that's trying to control in the Netherlands. Dutch cattle farmers own 70% of Holland, but the government is pushing for a forced buyout of 50% of their land, claiming that it's necessary to reduce pollution. No, it's necessary for them to create their megacities. And they've got a megacity plan. They want to get everybody off of the land and put everybody in the cities.

And this is a global plan going back to Agenda 21. They got more specific with the time and other aspects of it with the UN 2030 agenda for sustainability, as they call it, and the smart cities. And now the 15-minute cities we see. All this stuff is the same thing. But it goes back to the plan to take everybody off of rural land, pack us into the cities. That's another main reason why they want to go out to the farmers.

Experts say the move to get rid of farmers isn't about the environment, but rather the control of valuable land. The government's computer models that they're using to support its plan to reduce nitrogen are based on a flawed assumption. You mean like the simulation from the imperial college of london that said didn't even have a curve fit into it right didn't even have far as law far as curve uh the bell-shaped curve that we were trying to flatten didn't even have that every person that gets infected is going to affect another two people forever and ever or two two point whatever and they couldn't even implement it so i could give the same answer twice with the same data bad implementation of a bad model based on a completely untrue understanding of epidemiology that's been around since the 1840s.

And yet that was what Fauci and Trump used to lock everybody down. And so they've got a computer model, all these fake computer models. And of course, Trump is still pushing that. He's still telling everybody that his policies of lockdown and all the rest of stuff saved millions and millions of lives. Criminal. It can't be that stupid. Nobody can be that stupid. Even somebody that bankrupts six casinos could not possibly be that stupid.

The man's a liar. Benedict Donald. The push to remove farmers from their land is being driven by NGOs, primarily funded by the government, making them government extensions. A $25 billion government fund created using taxpayer money driven by NGOs, primarily funded by the government, making them government extensions. A $25 billion government fund created using taxpayer money has been established to buy farmers land. We've talked about all this. This is what is in the Nitrogen 2000 documentaries, 45 minutes, talking about the struggle of

this. But here's the key thing, folks. This is the key thing we've talked about before. First of all, the eminent domain domain they're going to basically steal your land not giving you what it's really worth but with this buyout program and this is a key thing what's different once you sell your land you will be legally prohibited from establishing a farm anywhere else in europe do you understand what the agenda is? The agenda is to starve us.

The farmers are not the bad guys in this. It's the EU government that's the bad guys. They want to buy out or take over the land of these farmers and never let them farm again in Europe. That's insane. And so as all this is happening, and they're talking about, you know, your CO2 and your nitrogen use and all the rest of this stuff, they push out a new study that's

being pushed out by the Telegraph in the UK saying that if you grow your own food, that's even worse than the factory farms. So let them grow your food for you. Don't try this on your own. Don't try this at home. And they talked about people trying to grow food in cities because, you know, once they pack us into these 15-minute cities, they don't want us to grow our own food, even in those cities. They said they looked at the practice of urban farming within the confines of a city. By some estimates, between 20 and 30% of the global urban population engages in some kind of growth of food, some kind of urban agriculture.

So they looked at three types of urban agriculture. Professionally managed urban farms, individual gardens, which you just do by yourself, or community gardens in cities where you'd have a green space that everybody in, let's say, in a high-density apartment complex would have a little bit of green space in a community garden. They didn't like any of those. They were all really bad.

They said that six times more CO2 than conventionally grown produce. The study was done, by the way, by Big Agro. Surprise, surprise. It's just like a big pharmaceutical studies. And, you know, you got three companies and they've got the same, essentially the, you know, drugs to address the same type of problem. And they all run their studies. And guess what? Every one of them, every one of the three companies says that their product is far superior

to the other two. Every one of these. So you get what you pay for with these studies. So this is Big Agra telling you that just let us do it. We'll deliver your food by drone or whatever, or maybe we'll grow it in the lab, but don't you dare, uh, grow this at home because of all the carbon dioxide that is out there.

Uh, we just, we're just grounding in carbon dioxide. What an absurdity. Uh, this all is. Um, so,

um, as, as they're doing this, big Agra, what does Big Agra love? They love Roundup and things like that, right? The chemical stuff. So don't, you know, be worried about the CO2 in your home garden. But don't worry about Roundup.

It's fine. Well, now we have a two and a quarter billion dollar lawsuit, uh, that has been won by a Pennsylvania man. This is a lawsuit. He got non Hodgkin's lymphoma cancer, uh, from using glyphosate. He said the jury agreed. And then the jury awarded him two and a quarter billion dollars. Now Roundup was developed, you know, roundup is glyphosate and it was developed by Monsanto. And then a few years ago, bear,

the German company behind aspirin and other things like that, but the German company bear bought Monsanto 66 billion dollar purchase. Maybe it should have been 66.6 billion dollars. Cause I looked at monsanto and i thought you know they're so evil you know from agent orange to glyphosate what is behind that name monsanto does that mean one satan to rule them all what what is that but the problem is that even with this uh massive lawsuits, and they've lost several of these now, and this is not a surprise, don't feel bad for Bayer. All these lawsuits were already in progress, had a lot of lawsuits. They knew about all this stuff.

And they worked it into the price that they paid, the $66 billion. So they knew what they were getting, and they really didn't care. Oh, I think we can make a profit and keep these people from getting any money. That's their calculation. So a 49-year-old man who was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma sued the company, said he developed cancer after using Roundup on his property for two decades. The problem is that just as we saw with Johnson & Johnson and baby powder and things like that, once they identify a health problem, they continue to sell it. They don't care.

You know, Bayer is selling Roundup. They've had these lawsuits, many of them going for many years. And they continue to sell this stuff. We're probably going to make more money than they would off of, uh, losing these lawsuits. Although once they start to get in the multi-billion dollar judgments, but in the past, there have been multi-billion dollar judgments against bear for glyphosates. And they've been able to get them reduced on appeal. That's why I say, you know, I don't think Trump's going to have to pay any of these massive fines that these New York juries are throwing against him. The trial is obviously corrupt.

He can win it on appeal. All he's got to do is get a real lawyer instead of a Lima Habba. And he will do that. First of all, he'll appeal it so he doesn't have to pay it right away. And I think he'll win on appeal. Uh, but, um, the jury delivered his verdict, which includes $2 billion in punitive damages. And, um, uh, the jury's unanimous verdict was a condemnation of 50 years of misconduct by monsanto and that's absolutely true it was in the uh early 80s that i remember hearing a report about um glyphosate for the first time roundup for the first time and um and it got my attention because our dog we had a basset

hound at the time and it was it was the kind of dog you would never think that it could hop over a fence. It could climb the fence. And it would get out of the fence, the fenced-in yard, frequently. It took us a while to figure out how he was getting out. But he would get out of the yard, and he would just start eating grass, which is really kind of strange. I know they do it when they're sick, but he did it all the time and he wasn't always sick. A lot of times they'll eat grass to make him throw up, but he was really bad about that. Our neighbors in this development that we lived in all had this lawn care service.

They would come out and spray chemicals on it. And they had signs up, you know, keep your kids and your dogs off. Well, this dog is jumping out there and he's eating this stuff. He wound up with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. And we were treating him at the time at the vet hospital. It was part of NC State. And it made sense. It was real expensive, but, you know, we did it made sense it was real expensive but you know we did it instead of buying dining room furniture you know uh but uh because when they would give him the treatment

at first he would feel great and he'd feel great for a couple months and then he would start feeling bad again and we'd go get another treatment now he's good but it is you know it's kind of like the batteries in your computer. That period of time kept getting shorter and shorter, and he kept feeling worse and worse. And so eventually it took him down. But as that was all happening, there was a report about farmers who had exactly the same cancer. And they said that they were getting it from their agricultural work and the pesticides that they're using from Monsanto.

And that was in the early 80s. So that was 40 years ago. It was well known at that point in time. But just like Johnson & Johnson and their baby powder stuff, they continued to do it. And they're continually selling a roundup today. Bear, which acquired the, uh, acquired Monsanto in 2018 said it'll appeal the verdict and believes that it'll be able to get the excessive damage award eliminated or reduced non Hodgkin lymphoma patients started using month suing Monsanto by the hundreds after the world health

organizations report in 2015 uh suggesting that it was uh uh that it caused cancer but of course now you know glyphosate is in so much stuff that we consume and um they've known this as i said since at least the early 80s further back monsanto has continued to sell their herbicide, just like Johnson & Johnson, their baby powder. Over the years, a German-based company has paid out more than $10 billion in settlements to thousands of cancer patients and their estates who have sued Monsanto,

claiming that Roundup causes non-Hodgkin lymphoma and accusing the company of failing to adequately warn consumers of the risk. They don't care. See, they can still make a profit. It's like the calculation that Ford had with the Pinto. lymphoma and accusing the company of failing to adequately warn consumers of the risk. They don't care. See, they can still make a profit. It's like the calculation that Ford had with the Pinto. Well, you know, we could put this cheap part in there to cost less than $50, but I think that would cost us more than all the lawsuits and people who died in accidents. So we'll just forget about it.

Very few of the suits over Roundup have gone to trial. And a couple of them where they awarded the plaintiffs tens of millions, even billions of dollars. They've had the judges later reduce those award amounts, saying that they were excessive. So they know that it's not really going to cost them that much. It'd be something that'd be prohibitive if they're being sued by hundreds or thousands of people, and they're all getting hundreds of millions or billions of dollars in terms of judgment. But they say, well, we can just do away with that. This is from a listener who said, this is from Jackie in Tennessee.

I just listened to your interview with Chris Hume from the 24th of January. Very interesting. Thought you might like to know that we had a raw dairy farm farmer here in Northeast Tennessee. They closed down after her husband got sick. She told me the FDA would come to her farm on a regular basis, checking to see if she was quote, following the rules. She also had to put not for human consumption on her milk labels, but we used to use it to make mozzarella cheese. Isn't it amazing? And, you know, it really does go back to harmless things like raw milk and raw butter and things like that.

It's just they demand to have absolute control over our lives. They will prohibit healthy homegrown food or they will demonize it as having too much carbon dioxide content, while they aid and abet the production of this cancer-causing garbage. We'll be right back. You're listening to The David Knight Show. Elvis. Ladies and gentlemen, the Beatles. And the sweet sounds of Motown. Find them on the Oldies channel at apsradio.com. Well, Mexico is complaining that there is a massive flow of military-grade weapons that are going across the border as they invade us with military-aged men from all over the world.

The weapons are flowing south of the border, and Mexico is rapidly becoming a narco-terrorist state with the war on drugs escalating and empowering these people. The Mexican Defense Department has warned the U.S. about weapons entering Mexico that should be for the exclusive use of the U.S. Army. So I guess since the Pentagon can't keep track of weapons anywhere, you know, they get audited every year, they get trillions of dollars missing, but yeah, who cares? They've never passed an audit. And, you know, we give all these weapons and money to Ukraine, but we don't know where it went and we don't care.

So maybe we've got the same kind of leak coming out of our own government. Maybe there's some officers who are getting really really rich on the rough side but nobody cares in june the mexican army announced that it had seized a dozen rocket launchers 56 grenade launchers 221 fully automatic machine guns since 2018 maybe they got them from uk. Who knows? But this is going to the drug cartels who we don't have to worry about at all. Just keep the border open. All of this terrorism, narco terrorism that is happening there,

that could easily come into our country. And we're not going to do anything about it. The influx of military-grade U.S. weaponry comes as the Biden administration fails to secure the southern border as millions of illegals flood in the U.S. But what is rarely discussed is what seems like an Obama era. They spell that E-R-A instead of E-R-R-O-R. Operation Fast and Furious Scandal as these weapons are going into the U.S. Now, when they did that, it was a deliberate attempt, a false flag,

in order to push the U.N. Arms Trade Treaty to control the flow of small arms. It was a backdoor, if you will, gun control scheme to, uh, to track everything that, uh, we have, uh, in the United States, uh, to ramp it down. And, uh, so it was just to create panic so they could say, well, we've got to have, we've got to identify everything, every piece of ammunition, every gun, everything like that has to be identified because it might be sold into Mexico. And we need to know if it is sold into Mexico, who sold it to them. And that was the idea behind all that. Um, so let's talk a little bit about the border before we do real quickly. This is from a listener bill. He said, uh, I sure wish

that you would address the identity theft at the DMVs. And yes, that is true. And that did happen to us as well. The Real ID program. Rolling it out. And this year, they said they're going to start implementing it. They've been delaying it and delaying it and delaying it. And when we moved here and went down to the DMV, they're asking for this and asking for that. So I give them the stuff. And when we get finished with it, she says, okay, now here on your license, there it says, see that gold star there. That means that you've been proved approved for real ID.

And that's good because, you know, beginning and this is, you know, um, year or two ago, whatever. So beginning in 2024, the TSA is going to require that real ID. You know, you're going to need to have that. So that's good. You've already got it. It's like great. A yellow star. I know when they gave a yellow star to people under some other circumstances in Germany, right? I mean, I didn't know that I was. And so it is a very, it is identity theft and it is happening at the DMV. Uh, but getting back to the border thing,

he said, watching your show from the 22nd of January, got to thinking about the Republicans responsibilities with respect to illegal immigration problem. If the Republicans in the house have come to the conclusion that Mayorkas is guilty of crimes due to his handling of the border and they are funding him. Aren't they implicating themselves since they knew what he was doing and they paid for the criminal to commit the illegal acts of course under any other circumstances they would be easily identified as accessories to a crime how can they impeach a guy that they're giving money to that's chip roy pointing this out he said so we hold these show trials and again they're not going to impeach him it's not going to pass the Senate, even if they get the votes in the House. It's all about entertainment.

And it's all about show. And all of this stuff that's being done by the Republicans is all entertainment. It's all show. And as I said at the beginning of the show, I spent a lot of time talking about this the last few days. I'm not going to spend a lot of time talking about it today. But there are important issues about the 10th Amendment. There are important issues about the fear of secession and civil war versus the right way to nullify the federal government. Can we, with our state governments and local governments, can we protect ourselves? Well, of course we can. That is protected in the 10th Amendment,

and it is a common sense idea. But then you also have the army of God issue. That is protected in the 10th Amendment, and it is a common sense idea. But then you also have the army of God issue. That's why I spent so much time on it. Warning people about the dangers of this, don't get involved in that. That's nonsense. But then you look at how it's being used by the Republicans to shore up their base as if they're doing something about the problem at the border that the Republicans understand. And everybody, including Democrats, see this as an invasion.

55% of Democrats, 65% of everybody see it as an invasion. So the Democrats want to redirect you to something else. And the army of God is really good about doing that because now they can get everybody scared about this crazy right wing, um, you know, Christians or Christian nationalists or whatever. Yeah. That's the danger of this thing. And then, um, you know, they can misdirect your, your attention, but it's always an issue that's being used by the Republicans, but they never do anything about it. And I said, when you look at this, we're talking about one town and we're talking about two miles in one town, two miles in a park. So it says two miles out of a 2000 mile border that they're doing something about it. And I said, by Abbott has always been famous for doing this, doing photo ops at the border, lining up a dozen state patrol

cars at the border as if he's now closed it. And look at what I'm doing. And it's nonsense. It's theater. And he's doing it again. And all this stuff about owning the libs by transporting people into the United States, that's not in our interest. Why don't you transport them out of the United States, Abbott?

What's the matter with this? It's beyond stupid. But look, it's not just two miles of a 2,000-mile border. It's not even two miles of a 2,000-mile border. As a matter of fact, half of Americans support a border wall as the Biden administration seeks to remove the border barrier in Texas. This is Breitbart, always focused on the border. Always focused on the wall. But what does this tell us, Breitbart? Well, it admits that Trump didn't do it. Trump's line is, we fixed the border. No, you didn't.

You didn't fix the wall. You didn't build the wall. And what you did build, you put massive gates in it. We're going to see a picture of that here. All the gaps build the wall. And what you did build, you put massive gates in it. We're going to see a picture of that here. All the gaps in the wall, you know, all together with the, mostly he just repaired existing wall, but with the repairs and a little bit of added wall, got about 400 miles of the 2,000-mile border as a wall.

So he's got a 400-mile wall and 1,600 miles of doors. That's what came out of Trump. Half of Americans, say Breitbart, support building a wall along the U.S. border with Mexico. And again, I think this is a phony solution. But they can't even deliver this as a phony solution. But they can't even deliver this as a phony solution. While only one in three are opposed to the wall, according to a survey conducted on Monday, but let's talk about what is really happening at the wall.

This is one guy who went to the border, and he looks at the razor wire that's there, and he talks about how phony and fake that is he's panning across the horizon here he's walking up to the border does this look honestly like this would stop anybody all you got to do if you're on the other side is walk over here this is what it's all about right now is this razor wire this razor wire is stopping nobody look all you got to do if you're on that side snip the wire that's it this is all it is

right here this is all it is that's what all this is about but what it's doing is sending a message and all it's doing is sending a message to the other side saying hey we don't care it's a free for all come on in that's all it in. That's all it's doing is sending a message. But if you look at how pathetic this really is. All this really is. And of course, there's nobody there either, is there? Easy, easy. Because there's places where there's not even that little bit of a barrier.

Show all that. Yeah, most of it has not even that minimal obstruction there's no water there's no water in the river at all i mean it's easy just to walk over as you can see cnn tried to portray the fact that this was causing kids to drown governor for three years i've just been letting people in millions at a time and now he's making a stand over this over this that's what this is all about i'm just trying to put in perspective for people that's all i'm trying to do the truth is the truth no matter how it looks and that's the truth take a look at it one more time this is what it's about america right here this cheap wire that they can come over here and cut themselves.

Yeah. Yeah. And then a guy drives along the area with a camera showing just how fake the wall is, how fake the military presence is. Here's his clip. I live in Texas. I was just on Eagle Pass, and I've got some videos I need to show you guys. Because you're watching the news, whether it's CNN or Fox, you're letting these news media idiots get you riled up against each other. Let me show you some videos that might just calm your ass down and make you turn off the TV.

Watch this. Ride and conquer and vote for me. The wall. You know, the fence that we put up, and they put up a secondary fence because they open the gates. There's some armed guards with some pretty serious weaponry. You know, pretty intimidating, right? Here's your razor wire

in between the two bridges. Just a little bit of a fence. And also the entrance to Eagle Pass. There's some hummers, some more guys, right? Just a little bit of a fence. 0.5 miles from where they set up their cameras, 0.5 miles from where they have all the people there, and it's right down the road. I left this long to show you just how short of a drive it is for us to get to a point where all that we just saw does not matter, and they're just getting you riled up against each other because it's election time. And right about here is where you're going to see it. Just a half a mile down the road. Look at this.

Where are the armed guards? Where are the AR-15s? Where is the razor wire? Where is the gates? That's half a mile from where the media is blowing up that Texas versus the feds, that we're having this big battle. It's an opening, and they don't even put a gate that can be closed there. The first gate that I saw. We drove down a little bit more.

There's one. It had a chain on it chain driving down the road you got trump's wall doing its job yeah right he's never even had a gate that's it that's what this is all about because uh we know what this is ultimately about right that's entertainment that's what it's about they're tap dancing around the wall and of because we know what this is ultimately about, right? That's entertainment. That's what it's about. They're tap dancing around the wall.

And of course, the Republicans and Democrats are, you know, coordinated with each other. It's like contra dance. No, it's all entertainment. And don't be fooled by these people. Biden's Trojan horse immigration deal would allow another 1.8 million migrants. See, he's doing this right in front of your face. The other people are pretending, no, we got this under control now.

Except it's still going, right? Don't let your congressman approve this. He doesn't need the approval of the Senate. Look, in the same way that Speaker Johnson says, and Musk has chimed in on it as well, you don't need us to pass something for you to protect the border. You can do that right now. As I've said before, well, so could have Trump. Trump didn't need the permission of the Supreme Court.

He didn't need the money from Congress. He's got control of the military. He could do what he wanted to shut down the border. He didn't need the money from Congress. He's got control of the military. He could do what he wanted to shut down the border. He could have built the wall. He could have done a quick solution. He could have done any of that. He could have done it by executive order, but he didn't do it, right? And the Republicans are claiming that if they stop this Senate bill, they can stop people from coming in and of course the democrats are going to facilitate 1.8 million people a year coming in and uh but by blocking this bill they're not going to block 1.8 million people from coming in nothing is being done at the border. So again, Biden could stop it, but he's not.

The Republicans pretend that they're stopping it, but they're not. You see, they're both using this as an issue, and neither of them are doing anything about this invasion that is happening. When one Republican, James Lankankford says the quiet part out loud that he's okay with this senate deal now the republicans have to punish him because we've got to keep up appearances here right i'm not supporting what he did at all uh but look you know the the democrats openly say this and that's not not what the Republicans are supposed to do. He went off script in this professional wrestling version that we've got here. He's got to pretend that he really wants to do something about this.

He's no different from the rest of these Republicans, but they've got to pretend. And so just understand the Democrats, the Dem party is really the demographic party. They're really the demagogues. But of course, the GOP is as well. For the longest time, they have wanted open borders because they want cheap labor. Democrats want it opened up because they want people that are going to be dependent upon them, are going to vote for them and get onto their welfare state and they can use their welfare state to collapse us. Just take a look at what is happening in Denver.

You've got 40,000 people that have squeezed into a city of 700,000. So one out of every 17 people in Denver now is an illegal migrant that doesn't have any way to feed themselves, doesn't have any house to live in, no shelter, no clothing. They come in as dependents on the rest of the people. One out of 17. Now, that's not as bad as it was at that Italian island where they brought in people from, I think it was North north africa or whatever that they had an island of 6 000 and they brought in in just a couple of months 18 000 three times the number of people that used to live there used to have a life now nobody's got a life there and so uh denver 700 000 residents inundated with 40 000 migrants just take a look at this picture here that was at the top of one of these articles. I think that is perhaps the caravan.

I'm not sure if that is in Denver or not, but wherever that is, that's what this massive invasion looks like. Overcrowded shelters in Denver, overrun hospitals. Denver state officials have begun enforcing a limit on the amount of time that migrants can stay in state provided rooms to accommodate the daily influx of individuals. You see, this is why it was no solution for Abbott to bust these people into Denver

or any other places. I think it's been an unheeded call so far in terms of who's going to be responsible for the healthcare of of this population uh said um the pediatrician chief of government and community affairs at denver health he said in the meantime it falls on the safety net hospitals like ours there were 200 plus tents around our business said samantha menendez co-owner of one shop back bar in Denver. She said, there's people right across the street that couldn't even get to our door. There were so many people packed around the front of their business. Their customers couldn't get in. So I don't think that picture, whether or not that is in Denver.

I mean, that is really what is happening. So many people around the front of that store that the customers couldn't get in. She said the first three months, it was fine. I mean, this is not just something that just happened. It's been going on for months. The first three months, it was fine. But after that, it was pretty aggressive for the decline of our business. This is a plan to destroy America. This is a plan by Biden to destroy America. The GOP is absolutely a part of this. They are accomplices to this. They're doing nothing while they are telling us that they're doing something. You understand? This is election year propaganda. Denver mayor,

Mike Johnston predicts that the city will have to use 10% of its budget to take care of these migrants. It'll need an additional a hundred million dollars in order to accommodate the population overflowing there. Why accommodate them? See, that's the Denver mayor that we, we need to accommodate them, and we just need to have more money, and we just need to have some of that fiat currency

shipped down to us from Washington. That's the way they'll do it. And when you look at this business owner, said, well, for the first three months, we could kind of work around it, but now it's gotten so bad. Everything's just come to, you know the business how do you go bankrupt gradually then suddenly we're at the suddenly part everything is accelerating now but the denver mayor says no no problem just give me some more fiat paper um because you know headcount is the thing that's the way the democrats look at it if i get a lot more people in here and you know, headcount is the thing. That's the way the Democrats look at it. If I get a lot more people in here and, you know, get more welfare payments and then all these people dependent on me. I had a friend who was in the military and he became a colonel.

And I remember we had, we got together and, you know, we had a business and we had six retail locations. And his question really struck me as odd. His question to try to get an idea about the size of our business and everything was, he didn't ask what our sales were. He didn't ask what net profits were or anything. He asked what our headcount was. I thought, what a crazy thing. You know, anybody that's trying to run a business,

of course, you're trying to run it efficiently and minimize your costs, which means that you're going to try to minimize your headcount. But somebody who is in government bureaucracies, which is what the military is, they're all about headcount, just like this Denver mayor. I can get more headcount. And as long as I get the fiat currency from the Federal Reserve,

everything's good. Not a problem. So, Musk is out there saying, no laws need to be passed. Same thing that Speaker Johnson has said. And of course, no laws needed to be passed for Trump. And Trump didn't fix anything. And Trump pretends that he did, but you just saw what the wall looks like. You know, you go for a couple of tenths of a mile and then there's a giant opening there that never had a gate.

That's not a wall. It's just, it's a pretense. So, yeah, Biden and Trump. Musk said the president was overlooking or refusing to see simple fixes that don't require new laws to address the problem. Yeah, Biden and Trump. These are our executive order guys. They're always putting out executive orders about everything. They're always declaring an emergency about everything. But they won't do

anything about this real emergency. They're always creating fake emergencies, but they'll do nothing about the real emergencies. Musk said no laws need to be passed. All that's needed is an executive order to require proof before granting an asylum hearing. That's how it used to be, he said. Trump says to Republicans, don't do anything unless we've got a perfect deal. Again, this is the same stuff that's being done by Reagan and his CIA campaign manager, Handler, while Bill Casey is telling the Iranians, we'll give you spare parts for these state-of-the-art jets that you've gotten, but don't release the hostages.

Keep them hostage. That's essentially what the, until we get elected, and that's essentially what Trump is doing, except what he's doing is he's keeping Americans hostage, all Americans, not just the ones who are in the Iranian embassy. He's working against, just as Reagan did with the Iran-Contra thing, working against the interests of Americans. Why?

For his own perceived self-interest. And so that he can get elected and get revenge. That's what motivates him. These people don't care at all about us or about our country. We're going to take a quick break. We'll be right back. Thank you. L'esprit de l'esprit Thank you. Making Sense Making sense common again. You're listening to The David Knight Show. Hear news now at APSradioNews.com

or get the APS Radio app and never miss another story. Well, the TSA is going to be expanding its facial recognition scanners to 400 airports. We always knew this was going to happen. It had a trial of just a few of them, but now they're going to 400. That's going to be basically all of them. There might be some real minor airports where they don't put that in. But just think about the contrast. We're just talking about the border. Got to have real ID for everybody, or TSA isn't going to let you fly. Got to have facial scans, or the TSA won't let you move. But hey, no restriction

on the movements of people into this country, right? That's why I said, when you look at a wall, better be careful about that that because they keep people in as well and they're very focused and trying to control our movements aren't they and they don't really care about you having um they don't care about foreign citizens coming here illegally they don't care about giving them an id or if they've got an ID, they don't know or care who they are. But they, um, and they don't care about IDing people when it comes to voting, do they? But everything else, they are manically obsessive about IDs and surveillance and, um, you know, identifying you with everything else, but, but not when it comes to the border or when it comes to elections. No, no, we don't want to know.

Don't ask. Don't tell. So 400, uh, different airports, Senator John Kennedy from Louisiana says it is astonishing that the TSA is expanding its invasive facial recognition program in the face of congressional concern. Oh, Senator John Kennedy, the Republican, he's very concerned about this. Oh, he's concerned. He feels your pain, but he won't do anything about it. He's just like Jim Jordan or the rest of these people. We're concerned about it.

And I'm going to speak. I'll speak strongly to them about this, but I'm not going to do anything to stop it. No, I'm not going to actually represent you. I'm not actually going to do anything. I'll grandstand. And he's one of the better grandstanders. John Kennedy is. He's always trying to sensationalize things i think

they're phony ufo stuff he comes out and he goes well all i can say is you better lock your door tonight it's like what kind of nonsense is that yeah if they were real what what good would that do but of course he's gonna hype it and that's But of course, he's going to hype it. And that's what he's doing. He's just hyping it. And a follow-up to what I was talking about the other day in terms of Indian reservations and how they really are a precursor to the smart cities, the open-air prisons, and all the other tactics where there was a piece by Sherry Tenpenny. So what do the smart cities have to do with the vanishing buffalo? Well, it's the same tactic. First, you destroy their food supply.

You destroy their ability to live independently and feed themselves independently. You make them dependent on you. You put them in an enclosed area. You put federal bureaucrats over them. This is all done in the 1870s and so forth with the Indian reservations. Then you take the kids away and you educate them in boarding schools so that you can break any tie that they had to an existing culture or to family. And so I had a listener who sent me this article. It's from actually from NPR. Talking about federal Indian boarding schools.

They still exist, but what is inside them may be surprising. They said one hot afternoon last summer, Riverside Indian School drew a crowd from all over Oklahoma. Elders, family members drove hours to pile into the school's gymnasium. And it is a residential school. You live there, right? I always looked at that, even when I was in college. It occurred to me that the decline of the British Empire and everything else was based really on the boarding schools.

Everybody desired to get their kids into what they were told were the best schools. And those are going to be the boarding schools. And they were abusive. They were corrupt. And it broke the connection with family. And they use that to destroy their values, essentially. And that's the way that boarding schools were intentionally used against the Indians here.

So they said, facing busloads of tribal citizens were the U.S. Secretary of the Interior and the Assistant Secretary. The gym now shines with new equipment and has a wall dedicated to the tribes of Riverside, a symbol of the new Riverside, one with a majority of native staff. See, that makes it all better. No, it doesn't. This is another tactic they have always used.

The British used this in India. They wanted to make sure the people that filled the bureaucracy were from India Indians so we don't get confused here I don't want to get as confused as Columbus did um we're talking about American Indians versus India Indians in India the British when they had their colony there they would make sure that at the top they were at the top controlling everything but But the vast majority of people would always be interacting with other people like them, other Indians. And so now, you know, if everybody's upset about this, the federal government will say, well, we'll put in some native staff. You feel better now? So for a lot of the people that were there that had gone to it, one year old man uh it was um a waking nightmare his experience there he said it was 12 years of hell he went

to the school 60 years ago uh he recounted he said the moment i landed there they took me downstairs they took all my clothes off and threw a bunch of green stuff all over me he said it was his time there was marked by abuse both emotional and physical he said the experiences are so awful that when one of the buildings at riverside known as the kiowa lodge burned down he stood by and cheered he said i laughed when they tore it down oklahoma at one time had the highest number of federal Indian boarding schools, more than 80. And of course, a lot of these at the very beginning, they weren't building them in Oklahoma. They were building them back east and they would ship the kids back east to completely erase that. Do you understand how they're using schools?

That was a very seminal part of it. Not seminal, but seminal. And they're still doing that same game today. World Economic Forum is bragging about how Ukraine is their partner to create this new world that they want, what Klaus Schwab calls the Fourth Industrial Revolution. And so they've got a center for the fourth industrial revolution that they've now built in Kiev.

According to the world economic forum, Ukraine has evolved into a global government tech powerhouse becoming the first country with a digital ID system. Again, everything is about the ID and yet they don't want to know who these people are coming across the border at all. And they don't want to know who these people are coming across the border at all. And they don't want to know who's voting. It can be used across the nation and the fourth in Europe

to launch a digital driving license. And I've played the clips for you in the past of Ukraine where they're bragging about what it looks like in 2030. Well, in 2030, we've won the war with Russia and now you've got a digital ID

and everything has been made so convenient for you. Uh, you know, the government is omnipresent in your life all the time, but it is so convenient and so easy because you've got digital money and you've got your digital ID and just everything is just greased for you and your whole life as they show in that video revolves around doing what the government wants you to do and they're just going to make it easier for you to comply ukraine reports that in line with its goal to make 100 of the public services available online almost 20 million ukrainians have already signed up for this uhIA application, which digitizes all of that. And, of course, we keep seeing really, really creepy stuff coming out of Ukraine like this.

Four bonds aimed at rebuilding the liberated and soon-to-be-deoccupied Ukrainian cities. Washington, D.C. DIA. USAID. Is this Orwellian or what? Sponsored by Visa. Google.org cyber attacks on ukraine of course they have and they failed even when the world is falling apart our main task is to protect the people together we can build a stronger one so we just need to have you all um get your id and as you saw those things scrolling across the

top the last one there was the state and a smartphone well that's a good slogan because they are it is the essence of big brother right there in the smartphone and um then of course um this is the other the other part of it you know remember a few months ago the tranny spokesperson hates the truth from the excessive focus on a uk volunteer is simply allowing the light of the Ukrainian nation's honesty to shine brightly. This place is a right. This is the dystopia that they want for everybody. They're doing it all in Ukraine. It truly is amazing what they are able to get away with and what they are creating there.

In 2019, Ukraine reinvented the concept of the digital state. They're bragging about this the intent to establish a gov tech gov tech that's why i used to call uh public schools i used to call them gov school and i'd misspell the school because you know that's what happens when you go to a gov school you can't even spell this you can't even spell school it comes a day after the world economic forum and gov tech campus deutschland announced the establishment of the global government technology center in berlin upon signing of a formal collaboration agreement ukraine will become only the second country to host a gov tech center with the forum's c4ir network yeah you see where this is coming from it's um

not so much the uh fourth industrial revolution as it is another reich is all coming out of klaus schwab and the germans and all the rest of the stuff jeremy jurgens managing director for the world economic forum said we commend the inspirational work of the Ministry of Digital Transformation. Center for the Fourth Industrial Revolution is a platform for multi-stakeholder collaboration, bringing together the public and private sectors to maximize technological benefits to society while seeking to minimize the risks. Well, as we look at this, of course, the center of so much of this is where we rent everything. Everything must be rented to us. And this is a trend that's been going on, especially with the software companies, because

Silicon Valley and the technocrats are at the very center of this you-will-own-nothing world, and it's now applying to the games. There's been a lot of interesting developments with the games, and whether or not you play games, it's interesting what it shows us in terms of the mindset of Silicon Valley. Not long ago, you had a major move by one of the companies that provides technology. That's kind of the substrate for building these different virtual worlds for games decided that they were going to, after they had been selling this stuff to people,

I said, well, now we're going to go back and we're going to, you're going to have to pay us. If you sell more than than i think it's something like a million dollars in a year if your revenue is more than a million dollars you've now got to pay them royalties and a lot of people worked out and said well wait a minute we're not going to make any money at all off of this and so there's a big pushback on it but from the standpoint of people who are actually buying the games, now one of the major game manufacturers, Ubisoft,

says the quiet part out loud about the future of owning things. They said, you'll get comfortable with not owning your game. So even though they are going to use these games to pacify people, as Yuval Harari has said, you know, we'll keep people pacified with sex and drugs and entertainment and things like that and you won't own any of that stuff you're not going to own the entertainment not going to own the games so Ubisoft is launching a rebranded subscription service for people playing their games on for PC users And people were not happy at all to hear this news as more and more things continue to shift to a subscription basis,

to streaming, and to a digital license economy. Again, you will own nothing. And of course, owning something is always cheaper than if you're renting it. That's the way they maximize their profits. Eric Peters and I talked about that for years. They went from selling cars to leasing cars because that made them more money. And it was not as good a deal for you. But you didn't have to pony up with the cash.

And so some people would go with it. But you're still going to wind up paying more. But the ultimate plan is to have you rent your transportation by the individual ride, like Uber and many of these other companies. But everything is about always keeping you renting stuff. I mean, for the longest time, you know, we've now got Adobe is on a rental basis, on a monthly basis. Because there really isn't any reason for people to, the features that they're coming out with or are not all that

interesting and so people were not buying new versions of that on an annual basis and so now for us to use it we got to rent it on a monthly basis and so now that's what they want to do with the games and this company ubisoft about 10 years ago i think 2012, 2013, they came out with a game called Far Cry. And it was a game where the good guys were the government and the bad guys were like this Christian religious cult like Waco or something, right? And so they decided that they would make them the enemies. And that was a real controversial move. A lot of people pushed back against that. Oh, so you're going to make conservatives and christians the bad guys you're going to make us all into the you know the waco people and of course the the waco people were not the bad guys the bad guys were the atf that

attacked them uh whatever was and and then pretended that it wasn't uh that it was about um you know child marriage or something like that. That's not the jurisdiction of the ATF. It was never about that. That was a cover story. They had not paid a license, and so they called the TV stations, and the go word was Showtime. And that's why you have the footage of that, because they'd staged this whole thing to threaten people. And you'd had situations where there was a lot of disputes

within the Branch Davidians about what was going on. And David Koresh had lawsuits served against him. And there were claims against him. And he would walk and jog outside all the time. And the sheriff had given him these summonses. And I think he'd gone to court. He'd defended himself. He'd won. But they used all that to smear them.

And they burned all these people, men, women, and children alive eventually. So then Ubisoft does this game. Call it Far Cry 5. And they developed a very popular song. And the funny thing about it is that this song has become, I'm going to play it for you here in a second with a with an introduction by joe biden uh but uh the popular comment at the time was okay so the british come up with a song yankee doodle to make fun of the americans americans said cool we like that song and so ubisoft came out with this keep your rifle by your side song and everybody's cool we like

that and uh so they start playing that but here's an introduction from biden when you know he's always bragging about how he's going to use the military against anybody with a gun right now you can't go out and buy an automatic weapon you can't go out and buy a cannon. And for those brave right-wing Americans who say it's all about keeping America, keeping America's independent and safe. If you want to fight against the country, you need an F-15. You need something a little more than a gun. They'll have bombs and they'll have tanks. They've got money in their banks but we won't fall as long as we can fight they'll go on and reach

their gates but they won't get past the gate keep your rifle by your side singing oh lord this earth was made for us again oh lord this sinful life just ain't enough.

When I see your face, I know I must protect my place. I'll keep my rifle by my side. Yeah, we were supposed to. That's the song they gave the villains. They don't really know what's going on. We know who the villains are. We'll be right back. Here's a little song I wrote.

You might want to hear it in your pod. You know nothing. And be happy. Ain't got no cash. ain't got no car But 24 booster shots in your arm Oh nothing, be happy You can't even buy shit in the store Because of your low social credit score. Oh, nothing.

Be happy. You owe nothing. And be happy. Be happy and eat some bugs. Tell Alexa to add the APS Radio skill and have access to the best channels anywhere. From country to blues, classic hits to news, APS Radio curates incredibly diverse playlists for you to enjoy.

It is, however, not nearly so abstract as the young gentleman supposes. The issue involved here is one of monopoly. Today the British government will monopolize the sale of tea in our country. Tomorrow it will be something else. ¶¶ Liberty. It's your move you're listening to the david knight show and on rumble thank you very much for the tip uh r looter i think is the uh the name uh but thank you very much and he writes god bless well it is a blessing thank you so much for your support and um i want

to remind everybody please um subscribe please like the stream that helps us uh and of course uh please pray for us as well because that is ultimately um you know there's not anything that any one person can do uh and so that is what really keeps us on the air, keeps us alive even. So I appreciate your support in all those many different ways. Let's talk about the monopolies. Let's talk about the monopoly of information. And it is about to accelerate as so many of these things are. We've had social media used to monitor, to spy on us, to push a narrative, to be able to accurately measure how that narrative is working and fine-tune that narrative. But of course, there's artificial intelligence, which is going to be much, much better at

fine-tuning that. And the key thing that we have to impress upon people is you've got these articles that are popping up now, and even in mainstream media, which I've said from the very beginning, just as you see people's reliance on these models, well, I've got a computer model that says everyone's going to die from COVID. I've got a computer model that says that the planet's going to melt and everything else.

People are prone to just bow down and worship a computer printout, and people who've worked with them understand you put garbage in you get garbage out but people don't think that about artificial intelligence we've got to impress that upon them because now even axios this left-wing establishment media saying chat gpt and other ai systems aim to align with human values. But which human values, they ask? Well, it's going to be whoever pays them, the highest bidder.

Guess who the highest bidder is going to be? Government. You know, last week we talked about humans. Well, soon they're going to be worshiping AI gods, or we've got an ambulance to the future. You know, you die, they're going to put you in an ambulance and take you to a cryogenic lab. They're going to freeze you, and then they're going to bring you back somehow.

These people have absolutely no idea. They've not really even thought about what we are as human beings. You know, is there a body and a soul? What happens to you when you die? They don't even think about that. They're so focused on material issues and um again when you look at the control that elon musk wants to put out there the brain computer interface that he just got the first uh human guinea pig oh i mean volunteer uh to do this

uh he wants control everything is about control isn't it and um even his purchase of x he's talked about how he could turn x into a massive hive mind well of course that's this big fight that's one of the key things about tiktok is the the big data that ai scrapes off and they use that to train artificial intelligence and so that's what these social media sites like tiktok or x are really about is to grab the hive mind and be able to manipulate it and to measure it and all the rest of this stuff but it goes beyond that even as they scrape in uh all of this data they still have people making minimum wage who are putting in a bias, deliberately putting in a bias. And so you want to know whose human values it's going to align

with? It's going to align with those technocrats that I was talking about in the first part of the program. This is the first time a technology platform comes embedded with values and biases, said one AI pioneer who asked not to be identified. Well, that's not actually true. It's just presented in a different way. It's presented in a more subtle way. And of course, Satan was the most subtle of all the beasts, right? So artificial intelligence is going to be the most subtle of all these manipulative technologies.

In the U.S., you can say your chatbot AI is trained to respect human life, but then you have to decide how it handles conversations about abortion, they said. Again, this is Axios. So, you know, it's not clear-cut with them. Because what defines morality for them? It's whatever they want it to be. You can say that it's on the side of human rights and democracy, but somehow it's going to have to figure out what to say about Trump's claim

that the 2020 election was stolen. See, as I said, this is Axios out there. As many Americans, as many AI makers struggle to prevent their system from showing racist, anti-Semitic, or anti-LGBT tendencies, they face complaints that they're too woke. And the Grok system from Elon Musk's X is explicitly designed as an anti-woke alternative. But it's not working that way. And so they don't want anything that's anti-Semitic, but you can be anti-male, you can be anti-white, you can be anti-Christian, you can be anti-Trump, you can be whatever you want, anti, that's okay. And that right there from the very beginning tells us what the bias is.

That was my very first experience with AI. As soon as I got a hold of ChatGPT, I started asking it questions about the government narratives that you're not permitted to ask. I started asking it questions about vaccines and about climate and all these other things. And I said, this is absolute trash. This is nothing more than weaponized propaganda. And my son said, yeah, but you know, it can, it can write computer code. And it can, some people, one listener say, yeah, we've used it to design electrical circuits and things like that. And it's like, okay, but what I think is important,

all these things are downstream from that. What I think is important, it is absolutely a propaganda and automated lying machine instead of ai is a lie the whole thing is a lie so they face pressure from governments said axios to adapt their system around issues such as women's and lg. Other regimes may put pressure on AI system developers to limit criticism of the government and discussion of political rivals. Not our system, of course, because, you know, here in America,

we don't do that type of thing. Well, yes, they do. The CEO of the Center for Democracy and Technology said she's concerned that so many AI companies' decisions aren't visible to the public. Well, that's because AI is a lie. Nor is it clear how they reached those decisions and who they consulted. No, just like they're owned. Just like the media is owned. Just like the politicians are owned. And so whoever owns them programs them.

That's the reality that we all understand. Let's talk a little bit about what is happening in terms of free speech, free exercise of religion. We can see this happening. And the attack on the families, as I mentioned at the beginning of the show, you had child protective services, kidnap a girl and take her for gender care. And this didn't happen in California. It didn't even happen in some of the States that we identify as being leftist Democrat. This happened in Montana.

So yeah, whose values indeed are being imposed. I said to them, according to state bill 99, that they may not under law provide transgender care nor transition our child. Their response was they're not providing surgery or hormones. So they're operating in the gray area of the law. I further explained that my understanding of the law was that a minor is a minor. There is no difference between a four-year-old and a 14-year-old under the law. They're still a minor.

And we prefer that she be called by her birth name. This is an attack on the family, on parental rights. This is the UN Convention for the Rights of the Child that has long been rolling its way out. And it's rolling its way out. We have not signed on to that UN Convention, but it's being imposed upon us nevertheless by bureaucrats and by courts. So they took the child away from the family, transported her to Wyoming. Their daughter was subjected to social transition measures such as chest binding, and is now under consultation for birth control

to halt her menses, actions that align with a model that has been criticized as a fast track from social to medical transition. And this happened in so-called conservative Montana. On September the 27th, a judge temporarily blocked this law, pending a lawsuit filed by medical professionals. This is what our hospitals have turned into. This is all happening in Montana, even as the UK,

where they set up Tavistock, a center that was doing this, and one of the doctors who worked there for over a decade wrote an expose. They're shutting this thing down because it is so horrible. He talks about how parents who want attention are doing this to their kids, how the kids don't know what is happening to them. He blew the whistle and he wrote a very long, he wrote a book about it. And he was there for quite some time. But even as they're shutting this down in the liberal UK,

in Montana, they're kidnapping kids from a family the uh colstad's daughter may be sent to live with her biological mother in canada who has been absent for the past seven years and it's also where dr wallace wong a psychiatrist with a controversial stance on treating trans kids and foster care practices long has previously been quoted as encouraging parents to use drastic measures to shorten the waiting time for gender transition treatments. Uh, so they said, um, uh, he is a perfect example of a risk of malpractice to troubled, sex-confused kids placed in government care. In addition to his private practice, the psychiatrist is responsible for children currently in the care of British Columbia's Ministry of Family and Child Development. Kids that they have kidnapped from the family.

The Kolstad family is currently seeking funds. They've got a Give, Send, Go campaign, if you want to look at it. Their name is spelled K-O-L-S-T-A-D, if you want to try to help them. And then Governor Gianforte, I guess is how you pronounce his name, the Republican governor of supposedly conservative Montana weighed in on this. They sent him, people demanded a response from him, and this is what they got. Upon hearing recent allegations related to the child welfare case, I asked Lieutenant Governor Kristen Juris, an experienced attorney, constitutional conservative, mother and grandmother to review it. Consulting with the director of DPHHS and personally examining case documents,

Lieutenant Governor Juris has concluded that the Child Protective Services and the court have followed state policy and law in the handling of this tragic case. Well, why is it tragic? It's tragic because you have asserted minors rights and judgment, which is no judgment at all. They can be manipulated. You have asserted that over parental rights to destroy the family. Another case of conservative Republican betrayal of what they were elected to do in San Francisco, they're handing out cash handouts to men who identify as females.

Of course, this is San Francisco, the, I guess we should just call San Francisco the Wiener District, where that state senator is. A program that provides taxpayer funds to black and Latino biological men who identify as females. And here's another aspect of this. They're setting this up as like a universal basic income, but only for a black and Latino men who identify as females, this is your future under CBDC. Well, if you do something like this, you say I'm in the wrong body. They'll give you $1,200 each month. Uh, so a lawsuit has been filed to push back against that um so uh and the eu they want all gendered language erased

uh this is coming from the telegraph uh things like no man's land, Joe Public, king and queen, all these things have to be eliminated or you have to put the female first. Because, you know, a matriarchy is so much better than a patriarchy. We're not even talking really about equality. No man's land must be replaced with unclaimed territory. Master of ceremonies must be replaced with host. Manpower must be replaced with human power. Repairman has to be replaced with repairer. You know, we saw some of this stuff. I remember when some new translations were coming out of the Bible in the late 70s 80s and things like that

and they that would be one of the things that they would do well we're not going to talk about mankind you know we'll talk about humans and things like that that's why a lot of people looked at this as like you know niv and some of these other translations like what in the world they would not change the pronouns of god but that has already been done in some other translation. Bossy and pushy has to be changed to assertive, if you're referring to women. If you talk about a woman being very shrill, you must say instead high-pitched or grating voice. Don't use the term shrill. I guess you don't want to get hysterical about this either. But we had in the UK a police officer who's actually an unpaid volunteer. But if you look at this video,

right behind her is a full-on police officer who is approving of this conduct. And she gets very shrill, hateful, intolerant of a woman who is singing Christian songs on the sidewalk. Or church songs. That's fine. She just said you're not allowed to sing church songs outside of church. Outside of church grounds unless you have a message authorized by the church to do this kind of song. Are you saying that you don't care about the human rights act? You're lost.

Look at that. She makes up all this stuff. You can't sing this stuff outside the church grounds you can't sing on the thing uh unless you're doing this on official business or something like that and again it's not a defense to say that she's an unpaid volunteer the cop is standing right there listening to all this stuff and approving of all this stuff and what is her response at the very end of it well she turns to the woman who by the way is singing she's got a youtube channel she's got pretty good followers at the youtube channel because she's a very good singer this is the type of thing that she does

that's her singing and she's got pictures of people who'll come alongside of her and kind of sing in the background. That's a woman there who's singing, but you don't hear that woman behind her. That's her voice. I once was lost, but now I'm found. Was blind, but now I see. The night's deep. Her name, by the way, if you want to find her on YouTube, is Harmony London. She spells that H-A-R-M-O-N-I-E. And she looks like she may be from India or something like that.

The woman who was giving her a hard time looked like she might be Irish. Isn't that a background? Isn't that interesting how these things are flipped? Because God is not a respecter of persons. You know, he can pull people in or reject people from any walk of life. I mean, it's, you know, we look at these stereotypes and we look at what Britain has become and why has that happened? It's because of what's going on in the institutions and so perhaps i'm not saying that harmony didn't grow up in the uk she may have she speaks without any accent or anything but it um you know we've seen a lot of street preachers who have been uh attacked in the uk who are migrants who immigrants or whatever and they have come in because they didn't grow up under this system that hates God.

And I thought it was very interesting, the whole tongue sticking out thing, you know? I remember when Miley Cyrus was doing this all the time. She'd tease her hair into two little knots like horns, and I think she'd do the tongue stuff. That's really strange. I thought, you know, I've seen that a lot in pagan statues. They frequently portray these demonic entities with their tongue sticking out. I thought, what is that that makes people want to do that?

This tongue sticking out. It does seem to be something that demons do that these statues do. She didn't have any response. She just stuck her tongue out. You cannot sing songs outside of church grounds unless you have been authorized by the church to do these kinds of things, she said. let's just you know when we look at what is happening I was going to talk about persecution of some people here in Tennessee that are facing 11 years in prison now let's end this on a positive note

and I want to thank Gregory Dia thank you very much for the tip Happy New Year says to you and your family I'm buckled up for this year yeah it's going to be a difficult one but here's the hope that we have here there was a story I think I mentioned it a couple of months ago. A street evangelist, his name is Hans Schmidt, and he was 26 years old, a military veteran,

and he'd been just sidewalk preaching and stuff like that for quite some time. And he was out doing it one day, and the tapes that they reviewed, the police looked at, they could not find who shot him, but somebody shot him in the head. And he fell to the ground when it happened. And then momentarily he got up and he was bleeding, but the shot had gone all the way through his head, all the way through his brain. And as they left and he drove home and he put up some of the PA system and everything, and then he just collapsed, lost consciousness. They took him to the hospital. Single entry point on the side of the left temple. Hold this a little bit.

I may go over just a little bit, Travis. The bullet traveled through his brain. No one heard the shot. No one saw where it came from. They put up a GoFundMe campaign. They've raised $78,000 for him. And he was unconscious. Police detectives reviewed the intersection video.

They said he initially felt, but got back up, was walking and talking, but bleeding. Then he started having seizures and vomiting. They took him to the hospital. He lost consciousness. And the prognosis was very dire. So his wife said he was rushed to the local hospital, where doctors did not realize that he had been shot until they did a CT scan, and he became unresponsive. My heart sank, said his wife.

I just felt sick to my stomach. She said doctors and investigators did not think that her husband would still be alive today. She said neurosurgeons told her that because the bullet's location in her husband's brain did not go through, I apologize, that it could not be removed. So he's got a bullet stuck in his brain. He was unconscious for a very, very long time. They didn't think that he had regained consciousness. In the aftermath of the shooting, the pastor's wife also recalled hearing a detective say, well, we'll know more after the autopsy. But you know, God has a final say in all of these things. And this was up on a lot of sites that I looked at. They asked people to pray and, um, he has now recovered fully. He's returned to church. He walks, he talks, he even plays the drums, said his wife. Uh, she gave an update on her husband's miracle

recovery. Uh, they have two young children. Uh, they publish videos and photos and Instagram posts showing him smiling and playing drums at their church. We serve a miracle working God, she said. And she said, God has done an incredible work in Hans' life. And every day he continues to improve. Please continue to pray for full restoration. We're rejoicing and thanking God for the miracle we've seen. Hans has been released from the hospital, home of his family. Please continue to pray for this family as they navigate the road to success. So again, that is where I want to leave this story today, because as we look

at all the hopelessness in front of us, as we look at these people who have so much money, so much power, and so many evil designs. Just like the person who shot him for no reason. Nobody even, he didn't have a quarrel with anybody. You know, we don't have a quarrel with any of these people. And yet, for no reason at all, they have designs on our life to destroy everything that we have, to kill us, to starve us, to destroy our families. But God gets the final say in that. And that is really where our hope lies. And so I hope that you make that connection.

Yes, follow the politics to understand what the threats are. But there's only one Savior, and you need to know Him. Thank you for listening.
