Starting point is 00:01:42 You're listening to The David Knight Show. As the clock strikes 13, it's the 5th of January, year of our Lord 2024. We're going to take a look today at the upcoming anniversary of January 6th, just briefly, because I was surprised to see that there is going to be a debate on zero hedge. On the one side, defending Trump as always will be Alex Jones and Darren Beattie. I don't know the people on the left side. Folks, there's no debate about this. I had this debate with Alex in person four years ago. So there is no debate about this. But we're going to take a look at that also there's some updates on epstein that's actually where we're going to start the maga bird media i want you to believe there's no connections to trump with all this and we'll take a look at the fourth turning at um neil howe's um the fourth turning is now his update to that his partner who was um wrote the original book, has now passed on,
Starting point is 00:03:06 but very salient information. We'll be right back. Well, as we look at the everybody is all upset about the list, or they're excited about the list, because now this exonerates President Trump, is what we're told by the MAGA bird media. The Mockingbird Press, CIA Mockingbird Press, is all focused still on that, and trying to find a way to explain away Bill Clinton's connections with this. But the right-wing press, the MAGA bird press, is explaining away Trump's connections to it. Well, it turns out there's a lot more there.
Starting point is 00:03:55 Remember, we said yesterday that Ghislaine Maxwell said, if you're going to show the tapes of Clinton or of Trump, rather, if you're going to show the tapes of Clinton, uh, or of Trump, rather, if you're going to show the tapes of Trump to the media, those, you need to show Clinton's tapes as well. What tapes are we talking about here?
Starting point is 00:04:15 Well, these are the tapes that most people are not talking about. Uh, this is, um, uh, prosecutors found Epstein's hard drives videos during the raid, but they never entered them into
Starting point is 00:04:26 evidence right so frank bergman they found boxes of hard drives they found videos that were never entered into evidence by the prosecutors they're going to give you this list of some people who were on some flight logs to the island and some list of people who were named by one or two of the victims by the way um a high profile model that committed suicide within the last year was somebody who was an underage victim of these people these people who run our government who run the banks and all the rest of this stuff they found cds that were burned you know they put information on them in other words hard drives videos all individually labeled by epstein authorities however concealed the labels and all of the images because they don't want you asking about the Trump tapes or the Clinton tapes,
Starting point is 00:05:28 presumably to mask the identity of the people named in the labels. So this is coming, actually, as a story from Slay News. Multiple victims and witnesses have alleged that Epstein gloated about having compromising videos and images of powerful people that he held against him. As I said, Delane Maxwell said, yeah, we got tapes of both Trump and Clinton. And his brother, Epstein's brother, Mark, said that Epstein told him that for the 2016 election, that if he released the information that he had on these people, he said the election would be canceled.
Starting point is 00:06:08 In other words, if you knew about the depravity of the Clintons and the Trumps, nobody would want to vote for either one of them. And yet, isn't it amazing to see how the partisan press reports all this stuff? It's hard to find anybody. I really can't find anybody that doesn't pick one side or the other. Are you going to defend Trump or are you going to defend Clinton? Well, both of them are indefensible, frankly. In December 2021, a federal FBI special agent testified in New York court about Ghislaine Maxwell's sex trafficking trial
Starting point is 00:06:46 said evidence went missing special agent Kelly McGuire recalled how CDs and other items were recovered by the FBI from a locked safe during initial search of the Manhattan mansion that he had on July 6th and 7th 2019 the raid was conducted shortly after his arrest on sex assault charges. The FBI agent said officers broke open the safe with a saw. They found CDs, jewelry, computer, hard drives, loose diamonds, passports with different names to other countries and large amounts of U.S. currency. They took photographs of the items with images of the evidence. So some of this is publicly available, although they masked out, redacted the labels that he had.
Starting point is 00:07:38 But they've actually shown the pictures of the fact they had hard drives and CDs and everything. And they were never entered into evidence. And so this former FBI agent, Kelly McGuire, who was a member of the FBI Child Exploitation and Human Trafficking Task Force, said she could not confirm what the content was on it, but said all the items were accounted for and then never entered into evidence. Boxes of CDs and hard drives were discovered in several rooms in his eight-story
Starting point is 00:08:09 Upper East Side apartment in Manhattan, including a so-called massage room. She testified that she had an evidence tape that sealed all of these boxes. So they grabbed all this stuff, put it in the box, sealed it, said evidence, don't tamper with this, but then just went away. On the fifth floor, FBI agents found a shelf full of large black binders. These binders held CDs carefully categorized into plastic slip covers and thumbnails with photographs on them. Another FBI agent who took the stand on the sixth day of Ms. Maxwell's sex trafficking trial confirmed one CD contained a photograph of the British socialite and of Epstein.
Starting point is 00:08:58 They mean the British socialite. They don't mean Prince Andrew. They mean Ghislaine Maxwell. According to the reports at the time, a trove of lewd photographs of children was found in the safe of the property. Court papers said that alongside photos were compact discs with handwritten labels including young and then the person's name. And then things like miscellaneous nudes and girl pics nude. There was also a passport from a foreign country with a picture of Epstein under another name. The mansion had 40 rooms, eight floors, 40 rooms. Ms. McGuire, the FBI agent that was there as part of the child trafficking task force, said that it took 12 hours for her team to fully search the eight floors and 40 rooms of the mansion.
Starting point is 00:09:52 And they were all filled with video monitoring equipment as well. That's how he created all this stuff. And so it just disappeared. Where did it go? Well, and some of the evidence that has now come out in terms of transcripts and emails has now been made public. You had Virginia Guffrey said that Clinton marched into Vanity Fair's office and threatened the staff there not to write about Jeffrey Epstein. Now, the Daily Mail pushes back on this. And even though this was something that was put in an email back in May of 2011,
Starting point is 00:10:32 they said there's no evidence for this. I think that's pretty compelling evidence. They said it seems highly unlikely that the former president would intervene in such a public way. Does it? Does it really? I mean, he doesn't have to it wasn't made public for where are we now 13 years until they release this stuff so you know when he goes to vandy fair they don't say anything about it why would she make this up and just put it in an email they said I don't believe that he
Starting point is 00:11:08 would do this in a public way well I think he did it privately Epstein himself did however allegedly prevent Vanity Fair from publishing reports by journalist Vicki Ward who had interviewed a couple of sisters Maria and Annie Farmer about their abuse by the pedophile. Ward said in her 2022 podcast that Epstein threatened her, told her, I have reports here about you. When you're not weighed down by high interest rates, life lightens up. MBNA TrueLine MasterCards have low interest rates on balance transfers and purchases to give your finances a lift. Find the credit card that's right for you. Visit mbna.ca slash truelinecards.
Starting point is 00:11:50 Give your finances a lift. About your husband, I have everything under the sun that was sent to me by people who want to be very helpful. In other words, he threatens the reporter at vanity fair vanity fair said the claims of sexual abuse are not included in the article because they came in late oh and also they didn't meet the legal standards well you know legal standards i'd be why why make up the additional excuse that they came in late don't those two mitigate against each other well they didn't get it in in time. And then we gave it to our legal team, and they said, no, we might get a lawsuit. Which is it?
Starting point is 00:12:32 I don't see both of those being true. You got it in enough time to send it to your legal team? And they say, no, the risk of this lawsuit is too great. But you didn't get it in time to publish it? I don't think so. So that story doesn't really hold up too well in her may 2011 email uh virginia uh guffrey roberts guffrey discussed whether to speak to vanity fair to promote her book she said when i was doing some research into vanity fair yesterday, it does concern me, uh, what they could want to write about me,
Starting point is 00:13:07 considering that bill Clinton walked into vanity fair and threatened them not to write sex trafficking articles about his good friend, Jeffrey Epstein. And then the vanity fair reporter who got her, that part of her story spiked says that then editor of vanity fair, Graydon Carter removed the damning allegations about epstein in 2003 carter said uh it didn't meet legal standards and his editors made that decision not him nobody's bad everything's fine nothing really happened as a matter of fact alan
Starting point is 00:13:41 dershowitz who uh defended jeff who defended Jeffrey Epstein as a lawyer, and of course he made the point, he says, I've defended a lot of reprehensible people. That's what I do. I'm a lawyer. He went on with Sean Hannity on Wednesday night. And he says, if feminists are upset about these rape and pedophile charges and everything, he said, they ought to forget about this stuff and they ought to condemn Hamas. Wow.
Starting point is 00:14:08 You know, I'm sure that Alan Dershowitz is not upset about any of this stuff. He's on record saying that he wanted the legal age of consent lowered to teens. I think he mentioned either 14 or 15 year olds. He has openly supported that in the press the matter of record dershowitz was previously accused in a lawsuit of being a participant in sex trafficking connected to epstein and then his accuser retracted the claim said oh i think i mistook him for somebody else what was it that he threatened her with?
Starting point is 00:14:48 Anyway, he said on Sean Hannity, and again, I'm sure the two of them were excusing any connection to Donald Trump. Now, the one point I do want to make, I understand that all the feminist groups and the radicals who think this is the worst thing in the world that anybody's ever had any contact with Jeffrey Epstein, you know, like me, is that we're all those radical feminists,
Starting point is 00:15:06 when it comes to the Hamas rapes of young Jewish girls, sexual abuse, beheadings, they're quiet, they're silent. This incredible hypocrisy of the me too. Movement me too, except you're,
Starting point is 00:15:19 you're a Jew. Uh, by the way, um, this, um, this wonderful man, uh, during the uh during the lead-up of as everybody was saying biden was going to mandate the trump shots for everybody alan dershowitz went on with jason goodman and he said oh no i think the shots ought to be
Starting point is 00:15:43 mandated he said i really mean mandated mandated, not just coerced, not just having people bribed and blackmailed. He said, no, I think the police ought to come to your house if you don't want to get it. They should come to your house, drag you out of your house, and forcefully inject this into your arm. You see, this is why when we look at all the people who said, you know, Trump didn't mandate anything.
Starting point is 00:16:02 He didn't cause any of this stuff. Oh, really? You know, that's the mandate anything. He didn't cause any of this stuff. Oh, really? You know, that's the same thing that you hear as an excuse from Anthony Fauci. I didn't force anybody to get it, right? Because what they're saying is, you know, the people like Fauci, people like Biden, that ilk, to them, forcing you would mean to go to your house and drag you out and stick it into your arm which is what alan dershowitz the only person that i know a public figure that supported that he said i would argue that to the supreme court he said you know what i would
Starting point is 00:16:38 win well he's a fabulous lawyer he really is he can make a great argument. Doesn't mean that he's right. I see this all the time from Ramaswami. Everybody, oh, look at this. He made mincemeat of this reporter. He's a great debater. Doesn't mean that he's right. Look at his background. Look at Ramaswami's background.
Starting point is 00:16:59 Look at the policies that he's advocated. Look at what Alan Dershowitz has advocated. Being a very clever debater doesn't make you right. It really doesn't. And so, Information Liberation says, whereas there's a bounty of evidence to suggest that Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell were Israeli spies. Of course, they were. Who ran a honeypot operation to blackmail and compromise our politicians.
Starting point is 00:17:32 And, of course, they were also involved with the CIA. Her father, Robert Maxwell, was first and foremost a Mossad spy. And they honored him after his death for that. Prime ministers and everything else. But he also worked for British intelligence. foremost, the Mossad spy and they honored him after his death for that prime ministers and everything else. But, uh, he also worked for British intelligence. He lived in the UK. He also worked with and for British intelligence.
Starting point is 00:17:52 And I think this is the same model that was followed by his daughter and by Jeffrey Epstein, who he going to pass the torch to, except they did it in America. So they were fundamentally Mossad, but they were also working with the CIA. The black male, even American politicians, uh, because the CIA is not on our side, folks. It is a dark secret government here that absolutely hates America and all the values that America has.
Starting point is 00:18:25 They have opposed everything. Whether you're talking about, you know, all of the social decay and rot that has afflicted our country, they have pushed all of that garbage, just like they pushed LSD. And just as they have pushed coups and everything as to on the inside of America,
Starting point is 00:18:44 they have been thes and everything else to on the inside of america they have been the moral cesspool that has been pumped out of washington but they also control the politicians and the government for the same way the cesspools you know we've seen the cia agents uh of uh 50 years ago in the middle of the 20th century you know when we supposedly had a kinder and gentler America, an America where the public, at least, wanted, in God we trust, on our currency. CIA was setting up honeypots and trapping people and blackmailing people, overthrowing governments in Iran and other places. That's what they've always done from the very beginning.
Starting point is 00:19:26 So he says, even though we know that they were israeli spies he says there's literally zero evidence that hamas did any sort of mass raping on october 7th not even one single israeli woman has come forward to claim that she was raped dershowitz however is correct when he said that he represented some of the worst people in the world and continues to do so. He represented Jeffrey Epstein. He represented Jonathan Pollard. And the Israeli spy in America was jailed. And then when he was released, flown to Israel on Sheldon Adelson's private jet, big supporter of President Trump, as is Dershowitz, embraced with open arms by Benjamin Netanyahu, who was then prime
Starting point is 00:20:15 minister as well. Said in his first interview with the Israeli media that all American Jews should spy for Israel and embrace dual loyalty. I don't think there is such a thing as dual loyalty. Because when push comes to shove, you know, we've got to get rid of the Palestinians. Let's send them to America. Epstein reportedly said that Bill Clinton likes them young.
Starting point is 00:20:38 Everybody is reporting that, especially in the conservative press. WND has that story there. But Trump also said that about Epstein when they were still friends, before Trump severed any connections after this depravity became known public. He said, oh, yeah, yeah, he likes the girls, especially the really young ones. So it's not just Epstein saying that. It was Donald Trump who was saying that.
Starting point is 00:21:05 But all these people, again, this is evidence of the partisanship and the way this corrupt Rome on the Potomac, you know, this Caligula, a string of Caligulas that we've got running the federal government. This is why I say, people say, well well who do you want uh in the oval office who do you want as roman emperor and god the office itself is gone folks it's gone washington itself is gone and i'm going to give you the evidence of that when we get to the pharmaceutical stuff. There's now a list of the people that were paid off by Pfizer. Not paid off, but they were bought. They were bought. They bought their silence. When you're not weighed down by high interest rates,
Starting point is 00:21:58 life lightens up. MBNA TrueLine MasterCards have low interest rates on balance transfers and purchases to give your finances a lift. Find the credit card that's right for you. Visit mbna.ca slash TrueLineCards. Give your finances a lift. 52% of their contributions went to Republicans, 48 to Democrats. Very high profile names. A lot of people that we've been asking,
Starting point is 00:22:25 why doesn't so-and-so who is supposed to be conservative, limited government, why isn't he pushing back against these vaccines? Why isn't he trying to stop this? Why isn't he pushing back against this public health dictatorship? Take a look at who was paid. Take a look at their return on investment, which we're going to do coming up here in a moment,
Starting point is 00:22:43 but I want to finish with the Epstein stuff. So again, you know, the MAGA press will tell you things like, well, you know, Bill Clinton, he likes him. He likes him young. And, you know, Trump said the same thing about Jeffrey Epstein. He knew what was going on. And then they'll say that the Epstein files exonerate Trump. This is what is going around.
Starting point is 00:23:08 It's only because the deep state hates him. And if you hate Trump, you've got to be deep state as well. This is the fourth turning mindset. The polarization, the hardening. I don't know if I'm going to be on air by the end of the year, quite frankly. I mean, I see all these people, even people who've listened to me for years, don't know if I'm going to be on air by the end of the year, quite frankly. I mean, I see all these people, even people who've listened to me for years, don't understand what's going on with Trump. Well, you got to get behind Trump. And this is going to, and the reason I say this is because look at what has happened. Look at how people are,
Starting point is 00:23:37 well, I don't know, but you know, that Biden is so bad. We just got to have Trump in there to save us. And I've, I've watched this happen over and over again. I watched this happen. Uh, every election cycle, the lesser of two evils. And at first it's like, yeah, you know,
Starting point is 00:23:52 you know, but I have to go with Trump. I think he's less dangerous than these other areas. And then they buy into it. And, uh, this is what's going to happen by the end of the year. People are going to buy into it.
Starting point is 00:24:04 I'm going to be really, end of the year. People are going to buy into it. I'm going to be really, really hated by conservatives, which doesn't bother me. I just don't know that there'll be a base of support at all for this program by that point in time. I mean, I'm really looking at how crazy people are getting right now, and it is escalating, and the Democrats are doing everything they can to escalate this by trying to make him a martyr with a bunch of nonsense charges.
Starting point is 00:24:25 What you ought to do is get him for the vaccine. But of course, the MAGA bird media, whether they're doing it because they're fools or whether they're doing it because they want audience or they're doing it because they've got somebody feeding them stuff from the CIA, they're making every excuse under the sun for Trump. I'm not going to make excuses for him. I've never made excuses for him. So they say, well, now you know why the deep state hates him. He's been exonerated in these things. No, these are files, as I said before, from one or two individuals who maybe didn't
Starting point is 00:25:02 have any connection with Trump. You don't have to go to Jeffrey Epstein's Island. What do you think he had all those? Why was his mansion with 40 rooms and eight floors? Why was it wired with video? Those were people that he captured who didn't take to the island. He didn't take them to the island. What was Bill Clinton doing in the Oval Office? You don't have to get on a plane. You don't have to them to the island. What was Bill Clinton doing in the Oval Office? You don't have to get on a plane.
Starting point is 00:25:28 You don't have to go to an island. But if you were connected with this guy, well, you're not exonerated. I look at all of this, and I look at, you know, the equivocation from Ghislaine Maxwell, the equivocation from Jeffrey Epstein of Trump and Clinton. It's a club. It's a sex club.
Starting point is 00:25:53 And you ain't in it, but they are. You better wake up and understand this guy is in bed with Pfizer. He's in bed with Davos. He did everything that Davos wanted in 2020. And he's in bed with Davos. He did everything that Davos wanted in 2020. And he's in bed with these pedophiles. Just take a look at this picture again here. Does that picture look at Melania?
Starting point is 00:26:14 Well, that's worth a thousand words, isn't it? Did you know that it was Jeffrey Epstein who introduced Melania to Donald Trump? One of two high-profile elite models that he brought to Donald Trump. Trump finally married Melania. But that says it all there, doesn't it? Right there. Yeah, that's what this is about, folks. So the exoneration of him right so this is wnd it's info wars it's other places quoting people like jack posobiet let me tell you jack posobiet is military intelligence
Starting point is 00:26:53 always was take a look at his he's the right wing everybody wants to think the cia is this monolithic thing that it's left wing uh. No, it's people like Brennan and Clapper and Hayden. They're left-wing, but it's not monolithic. There's a lot of right-wing CIA. People like Jack Posobiec. People like Steve Pachinik.
Starting point is 00:27:18 People like Alex Jones. People associated with Alex Jones. Those people are intel agents as well. It's not monolithic. There's different groups that compete against each other. And they truly do hate each other. But it's Jack Posobiec, this military Intel guy,
Starting point is 00:27:36 who is pushing all this stuff that he's been exonerated. There's nothing about him. And the Epstein Island, Well, great, Jack. Um, maybe, uh, maybe these were, um, pictures of flowers or something, right. They were found there. Uh, so he had surveillance cameras in every room. And of course we know that it was to blackmail people. As I said, uh, this is the same game that Glenn Maxwell's father, Robert Maxwell, was running in the UK. Virginia Roberts, under court filing, said that Epstein remarked to her that, quote, information is king, and then mentioned that Bill Clinton was there because,
Starting point is 00:28:17 quote, he owes me a favor. In 2019, former Israeli spy and alleged handler of Robert Maxwell, Ari Ben-Manshi, told the authors of the book Epstein, Dead Men Tell No Tells, this Israeli Mossad agent, said that Epstein ran a complex intelligence operation at the behest of Mossad. Believing that Epstein planned to marry his daughter Robert Maxwell introduced him and Ghislaine Maxwell to Ben Menashe's Mossad circle Maxwell started sort of liking him and my theory is that Maxwell felt that this guy is going for his daughter he felt that he could bless him with some work and help him out in a kind of paternal way. Israeli intelligence bosses gave the green light, and Epstein then became a Mossad asset. They were agents of Israeli intelligence services, said Ben Menashe. By the way, this article is from Free Thought Project.
Starting point is 00:29:22 Epstein also has all the hallmarks of being a major espionage case tied to Israel. Those blackmailed would undoubtedly in most cases cooperate with the foreign government involved to avoid a major scandal. It's called recruiting agents of influence. That's how they work. That's what they do. That's what they call it. Epstein was perceived as being intelligence linked. That was made clear in the comments by alex acosta
Starting point is 00:29:46 the prosecuting attorney there in florida who again arranged that sweetheart deal dershowitz was his defense lawyer so is ken star as i've talked about the last several days uh alex acosta was then you know there's no it's not a little club it's not a little sex club it's not a little elite club there in flor, right, with Jeffrey Epstein. He lived there in West Palm Beach, same as Donald Trump. And then Alex Acosta is offered a cabinet position in the Trump administration. And it became public, you remember this, I reported it at the time. Alex Acosta was asked, quote,
Starting point is 00:30:26 is the Epstein case going to cause a problem for your confirmation hearings? Because he got such a sweetheart deal. Acosta had explained that back in the day, he had had just one meeting on the Epstein case, and he had cut the non-prosecution deal with one of Epstein's attorneys because he had been told to back off that Epstein was above his pay grade. I was told Epstein belonged to intelligence and to leave it alone. You see, that's what I'm saying. It's not just Mossad, it's CIA as well. Same way that Robert Maxwell worked with the British intelligence. Wednesday's release, as I pointed out yesterday,
Starting point is 00:31:07 shows a secret non-prosecution agreement with the U.S. government, precluding any federal prosecution in the Southern District of Florida of either Epstein or his co-defendants. And so, again, when we go back and we look at Robert Maxwell, an Anglo-Jewish businessman, a multimillionaire, and he was regarded as having ongoing ties to Assad. After his death, he was given a state funeral in Israel, in which six serving and former heads of Israeli intelligence attended, along with Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir, who eulogized
Starting point is 00:31:47 him as saying, he has done more for Israel than can today be said. Which again, all of this shows, as Ghislaine Maxwell posed with that book, within 24 hours of Jeffrey Epstein being killed, she goes to an In-Out Burger, shows a book, and she has her friend take a picture of it, put it on social media, and the book was The Book of Honor, Secret Lives and Deaths of CIA Operatives. When you're not weighed down by high interest rates, life lightens up.

Starting point is 00:32:43 Brian Chilhavi of Vaccine Impact and Health Impact News says the big story on Epstein is being avoided. That's true. He said there's almost absolutely nothing new revealed by these names. I think really the only new revelation is this secret non-prosecution agreement. But we'd already had that tipped to us back in 2017 when they were looking at Alex Acosta. I was told to lay off, he's a fed or whatever. But then to see that NPA, non-prosecution agreement. But as Rachel Harvey says, the book on Epstein, who was responsible for bringing him to power, was already written back in 2022 by Whitney Webb. Whitney Webb actually wrote two books, volumes one and volume two, One Nation Under Blackmail, volume one and volume two from Whitney Webb. Now, look at these people in here
Starting point is 00:33:45 right on the left side uh do you recognize those faces one of them is roy cohen roy cohen is um was very close to uh donald trump and to roger stone He was the assistant of Joe McCarthy, McCarthy hearings, a real rat dog. And he was homosexual, but he did more than anybody else to try to punish people who are homosexual, very much like Jagger Hoover, Roy Cohen was,
Starting point is 00:34:23 but he was a mentor, a mentor. Look it up. He was a mentor to Donald Trump and a very close friend of Roger Stone. The guy who's there below him on the left, uh, that's Bill Casey. Wow. Bill Casey. Um, and, uh, he was, um, I think he was head of the OSS. I'm not really sure what is, but he was either one of the leading figures or the leading figure and the World War II predecessor to the CIA.
Starting point is 00:34:50 He had CIA connections and he was basically running the Reagan administration. And of course, all the stuff with Iran-Contra. He made the deal with Iran that they would not release the hostages until after Reagan was installed. And they kept their end of the deal. And Bill Casey kept his deal with the Iranians and gave them spare parts and equipment, sold it to them. Well, now what do we do with this money?
Starting point is 00:35:13 I know we can't make it public, but we can start a secret war in El Salvador, which is what they did. That was the Iran-Contra scandal. And then going back to this picture here. Then on the right, One Nation Under Blackmail, Volume 2, the pictures that Whitney Webb has there are Robert Maxwell, father of Ghislaine Maxwell, and Jeffrey Epstein. None of these men will face justice.
Starting point is 00:35:40 Which men? Well, the people who brought him to power as well. One of the things that Whitney Webb writes about in her book, she documents the fact that there were three billionaires who brought Epstein to power. Of course, Lex Wexner, the guy who owned Victoria's Secret. What a surprise that he'd be connected with somebody like Jeffrey Epstein, right? Victoria's Secret and Abercrombie and, is it Fitch or Finch? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:36:16 Those deplorable stores in the malls, you know, that just, you know, pornographic pictures that they put there in the malls. So, Les Wexner, Victoria's Secret and Abercrombie and Finch, right? Bill Gates, second billionaire. And third one, Donald Trump, who connected with him in the 90s when he was still struggling. Donald Trump got him on his feet, along with Les Wexner, who had previously owned that eight-floor, 40-room mansion there in New York, and Bill Gates. None of these men will face justice she said neither will the man who runs the world's most powerful bank that financed the epstein criminal network that's jamie diamond and a jp morgan chase so um yeah if you uh
Starting point is 00:37:02 if you look at what jp morgan did and the many trials that we just kind of parenthetically talked about here, I'm typically not interested in digging deep into these scandals. But I think it's very relevant to this election, frankly. Very relevant. So the real story that the mainstream media refuses to investigate it says um brian shalhavi is why federal judges in new york have been allowed to secret away and sealed documents the puzzle piece is how epstein's network of powerful men were able to run a sex trafficking ring for two decades with the active participation of the largest federally insured bank in the United States, JPMorgan Chase.
Starting point is 00:37:51 The tapes have disappeared, CDs have disappeared, and we've got a judge there, as there were multiple lawsuits. We had lawsuits from individuals, we had lawsuits from investors, we had legal action being taken by the virgin islands and all this stuff was shut down and the information was covered up answers to this story will not be found in the documents released they've been sealed and locked up tight by judge jed rackoff's courtroom that oversaw multiple epstein related lawsuits brought against JP Morgan Chase in late 2022 through 2023. Again, just because, um, uh, they haven't produced the evidence. I guess JP Morgan Chase and Jamie diamond have been exonerated in all this stuff, right?
Starting point is 00:38:42 Yeah. So, um, uh, Trump has not been exonerated in this either. One case, Jane Doe versus JPMorgan Chase, a class action lawsuit on behalf of Epstein's victims. The judge approved a settlement for $290 million in this class
Starting point is 00:39:00 action thing, despite, listen to this, despite objections from 17 attorneys general this is a massive sex trafficking of children and you got 17 attorneys journals who want to have this uh but they settle up for money jp morgan buys them off for 290 million dollars again jp morgan more criminal convictions than any other bank but of course you know and then there's other banks like hsbc that was laundering cash for el chapo's cartel gave them their own cash checkout window uh but it was pretty amazing what was happening with uh epstein and cash he was um they were j, JP Morgan was handling as much as 40 to $80,000 of cash for Jeffrey Epstein
Starting point is 00:39:49 per month per month. And, they didn't file any suspicious activity reports. Think about the fact that Joe Biden wants, um, reports filed by the banks for you. If you transfer $600 or more, that's been delayed right now,
Starting point is 00:40:04 but that's what he wants. Uh, any of you you transfer $600 or more. That's been delayed right now. But that's what he wants. Any of you give somebody $600 or more. But when it comes to Biden and Hunter getting paid millions, not even reporting it on their income tax, that's fine. When it comes to Jeffrey Epstein running $40,000 to $80,000 a month. No suspicious activity reports. Remember how they locked up that other pedophile, Dennis Astor? I mean, you would think he'd be pretty well connected.
Starting point is 00:40:34 He was the longest term speaker of the house for the GOP of anybody. And yet they sent him to jail for this very same thing. He was taking out large sums of money. I think the number is like $10,000 is typically what it's supposed to be, trigger a thing. Now, Biden wants to take it down to $600. But he was taking out big amounts of cash. One might ask, how did somebody who was a high school wrestling coach
Starting point is 00:41:00 before he became a congressman, how did he get to be so rich that he could take out tens of thousands of dollars each month? Just asking for a friend, right? Rhetorical question. But Epstein is taking out way more than that. No reports filed by his friends at the bank, J.P. Morgan. And so that's supposed to be reported, and it would be something that the Financial Crimes Network would look at.
Starting point is 00:41:27 Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, FinCEN. These allegations were substantiated by 22 pages of internal bank emails released in the related case brought against the bank by the U.S. Virgin Islands. And so this judge just waved it away, said, well, I don't want a settlement. We'll just wave this all away over the objection of 17 state attorneys general. And let's seal all the evidence, which is what they really wanted. So many of the individuals there in Epstein's little black book, a total of 1,571 of them. In a court filing last year by the Attorney General of the U.S. Virgin Islands, has since settled the Epstein-related case against J.P. Morgan for $75 million. That's the second one.
Starting point is 00:42:16 That case listed individuals as people that Epstein referred as clients to the bank. So J.P. Morgan is doing this because Epstein is sending these wealthy people like Bill Gates, Google co-founder Sergey Brin, the Sultan of Dubai, media and real estate billionaire Mort Zuckerman, and many others. So he's actually out there working as a bird dog for JPMorgan Chase. And the third one was brought against JPMorgan Chase. That was from investors who alleged that the bank could become a cash conduit for Epstein's child sex trafficking ring because they were hoping that in their own verifiable business ties to Epstein would go unnoticed.
Starting point is 00:43:07 And so the mainstream media is just ignoring all this. The other big story, says Brian Schoelhovey, is the fact that with all this stuff happening, and all these famous names, and all these thousands of people that were victims of him, only two people have had criminal charges brought against them, Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. Remember who got him started? It was Les Wexner, it was Bill Gates, and it was Donald Trump, along with J.P. Morgan.
Starting point is 00:43:43 It's kind of interesting. You know, we were talking this last week about some things in It's a Wonderful Life. I did that report on the 100th anniversary creation of the Federal Reserve. The character in it, Mr. Potter, modeled after J.P. Morgan of J.P. Morgan Chase. I only recently learned that George Bailey's character was modeled after a man who was famous for setting up branch banking and working with a little guy. His name was Giannini. And he was an Italian. He came to America. He set these things up. And in that movie, Frank Capra made him the hero. He was the banker for the little guy, the local banker for the little guy. And he called it the Bank of Italy. He was setting that up. And it got bigger and bigger. It became the Bank of America. And look at where we are today. The two biggest banks,
Starting point is 00:44:48 J.P. Morgan and Bank of America, which originally started out with a person like George Bailey. Is that a metaphor for our country or what? It truly is. It truly does show what our country has become. Doesn't it? Uh, thesis and antithesis. Now, JP Morgan was always corrupt, but you know, once you,
Starting point is 00:45:12 even if you start an institution, the institutions have a limited lifetime. And that's what we're going to talk about. When we come back, we're going to talk about the fourth turning, uh, because there's some more information that has come out, uh,
Starting point is 00:45:24 about, uh about the sequel that neil howe has done you know straus and how did the original one back in the early 90s very accurate and not really very political uh it turns out that um as one of them died uh the survivor has done a sequel how has done sequel. And so we're going to talk about that. Where is he politically? And what are the four possibilities that he sees happening in this fourth turning?

Unlike most revolutions where the people rise against a real economic oppression, in our case here in Boston, we are fighting for purely an abstract principle. Hear, hear. 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.
Starting point is 00:47:03 Tomorrow, it will be something else. © BF-WATCH TV 2021 liberty it's your move you're listening to the david knight show and as we think about the founding of this country, when it was founded, we had 13 sovereign states that created the federal government. And the thing that they were most concerned about was consolidation. What we would call centralization. Centralized,olidated Control. And so they made it very clear that they wanted to divide power between three branches and the federal government and divide power between the federal government, the states who created it, and we the people. That's what the Tenth Amendment makes clear. It lists our God-given rights, prohibits the government from infringing on them, and then the Tenth Amendment makes it clear what the power structure is.
Starting point is 00:48:49 Makes it clear that the creators and the superiors to the federal government were the states. Doesn't that sound odd to the modern ear? We have seen consolidation of power, centralization of power, and we see the states as merely functionaries. They're doing what the federal government pays them to do, bribes them to do, blackmails them to do. And that truly is where we are right now, but that's not the design. And it's not a good system. Prior to the Civil War, people would refer to the United States, would say the united states are are because they understood it was plural sovereign nations sovereign states we still talk about sovereign states don't we we talk about nations but then
Starting point is 00:49:38 after the civil war became the united states is a consolidated entity And so as we look at what is going to be coming with global government, think about this. I said, um, Oh, when Karen and I were going through, um, we moved to North Carolina.
Starting point is 00:49:56 We're close to Virginia. We would take trips up. I called it the tragical history tour. Uh, and, uh, we would go places and we would talk about it and um and i i said you know it is um when you look at what happened with the american government same thing is
Starting point is 00:50:17 happening now and will happen with the united nations the united Nations is a creature of sovereign states, and yet it wants to be the controlling entity. And as Kit Knightley of Off Guardian points out, he says, this is the year that global government will take shape. Total control of every aspect of life for every single person on the planet is the goal. And of course, that is the accomplished goal in many ways of the federal government. They claim to and aspire to control even more aspects of our life. What we will drive, if we will drive, how we will heat our homes, how we will cook our food, what we will eat. All of this, where we will live, every aspect of our life, they demand to control. And so he makes a couple of points, and I think they're clear, and I've said this in
Starting point is 00:51:11 the past. It's really better to talk about, instead of global government, it's better to talk about global governance. Why? Well, because it's going to be a corporatocracy. It's going to be a lot of corporations and NGOs that are quote unquote stakeholders. They're going to be calling the shots. You will still have, as he points out, they're not going to declare themselves. They're never going to say officially this is the world government. It'll be world governance. And they're not going to abolish the nations. Just as when the federal government under Lincoln consolidated all power to itself, it did not abolish the states. It used them as inferior agents of itself.
Starting point is 00:52:04 Now, you look at the civil war, you understand that each of these different States raised its own army. They fought under the flag of Virginia or Michigan or New York or Pennsylvania or, you know, Alabama or whatever they fought under those state flags. But so they're not going to abolish the nations that we have now. They will just be emasculated versions and servants of this global governance.
Starting point is 00:52:35 And it's not going to be you're not going to say there it is. You know, there's where it's going to be distributed as it already is, because global governance already began. Global governance came into effect in 2020. Did you not notice? We had all of the nations. It didn't matter what political party or philosophy that they had. It didn't matter if they had been portrayed as anti-globalists as Trump had, or if they were openly advocates of global governance, they all did exactly the same thing at exactly the same time. We have this shadowy network, Hail Hydra, of these people who somehow, just coincidentally, are all doing the same thing at exactly the same time. Global governance came in four years ago, folks. just coincidentally we're all doing the same thing at exactly the same time global governance
Starting point is 00:53:25 came in four years ago folks we're four years into global governance they're not going to set up some kind of tower of babel somewhere you know we've already got a lot of references to that and at the eu and brussels and things like that but they're not going to do that openly they're not going to say there it is They're not going to say, there it is. It's going to be distributed. It's going to be kind of a shadow, you know, gentleman's agreement running under Chatham House rules and all the rest of this stuff.
Starting point is 00:53:56 There'll never be an overt declaration about how the system has changed. I'm telling you, it changed in 2020. Capitalism, communism, socialism, democracy, tyranny, monarchy, says Kit Knightley. These words will steadily dilute in meaning, even more than they have already, but they will never be abandoned because it's a useful thing. It's a useful thing to have the nations. It's a useful thing to have politicians who
Starting point is 00:54:23 say that they're populist or that they are, um, you know, socialists or whatever, uh, that they're anti-globalist or that they're pro-globalist. They love to have this,
Starting point is 00:54:34 you know, these, these, this Hegelian dialectic thesis and antithesis. They love that. They're going to keep that there. What globalism will bring us is a collection of nation states that are largely a name only and uh he said so there's going to be three main pillars
Starting point is 00:54:51 of this global rule that are going to be coming in digital money digital id and climate action i would structure that part of it i'm totally agree with what he said so far but i would structure that a little bit differently and we're going to have a third hour joining us as Catherine Austin fits. And we're going to talk about, uh, financial transactional freedom, right? Everybody talks to you about, oh, financial freedom. You want to have money when you retire, or you want to be able to retire and stop working, have financial freedom, freedom to not have to work. Well, if you don't have the
Starting point is 00:55:29 freedom to transact you can have a lot of money but if they're going to tell you what you can't can't buy you really don't have any freedom and so catherine austin-fitz is going to come on and talk about that and has you know has some solutions for that some actions that you can do yourself some actions that need to be taken at local and state level some actions that you can do yourself, some actions that need to be taken at local and state level, some actions that can be taken with groups of people that you might work with. So that's coming up. But the way Kit Knightley does it, he says three things, digital money, digital ID, climate action. Well, I would look at that as not the pillars of global rule, but I would just say, I would structure it and say the digital money and the digital ID are their so-called solutions that they're offering us.
Starting point is 00:56:09 And that the climate action, he doesn't mention pandemic, he doesn't mention terror and war, but those are all MacGuffins, right? So we have climate, we got the pandemic, we got terrorism, all this. Those are all MacGuffins that are going to push us, so-called problems that are going to push us to the same solution.

Starting point is 00:56:49 The solution to all of those things, you know, the climate, the pandemics, the terror, the solution to all that is digital money, digital ID. So I see it as simply a problem, government-created problem. Either the government does it, and they typically do do it to a certain extent. Actually do it. We're looking at climate change. They're doing geoengineering. When we look at all these different aspects,
Starting point is 00:57:18 look at terror, right? They're the ones who pulled off 9-11, and then the other shoe to drop is the so-called pandemic that they practiced for 20 years. So they will do this stuff. They're the people who are behind it, just like they're behind the drug war. We've got to have a surveillance police state because we've got to prohibit drugs for everybody. You know, drugs are bad, but they're the ones who are running the drugs. So a June 2023 report for the World Economic Forum noted the importance of, quote, central bank digital currency global interoperability principles.
Starting point is 00:57:54 And that's the key thing. The interoperability. As he points out, if they've got this interoperability, then they don't really need to have one global currency. they've got this interoperability then they don't really need to have one global currency you know they can keep different they can have a different digital dollar or digital yuan or whatever they can each pseudo nation and i call it a pseudo-nation because, again, the sovereignty is really going to rest with this hidden network of people. And, of course, the currencies themselves will be a network of currencies. And as long as they are interoperable, it really doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:58:37 Just like, you know, you can go out, you can buy gold coin. You have a gold coin that's issued by the U.S. a U S Eagle or something like that. Or you can get one, uh, from the Austrian government and they've got, you know, pictures of, uh, thank Johan Strauss or something on it, or, or you can get a South African crew grant. You know, they can, you know, put their name on it, their image on it or whatever, but it's still just basically gold. Well, it'll still be basically just a global digital ID, even though it'll be identified as being somehow
Starting point is 00:59:05 distinct from each other. And, you know, when we talk about the fact that the global governance began in 2020, it truly is amazing to see how Gates was right on target. For the longest time, he has said, we're going to have ID 2020. Everybody's going to get an ID in 2020. Everybody needs an ID in 2020. And of course, by using the fear and panic about a so-called pandemic, they were able to accomplish that.
Starting point is 00:59:36 Now you're saying, well, I don't have that. Well, they established the mechanism. All these different countries established the mechanism. World Economic Forum put one out, but the EU's got one and all the rest of the stuff. And they're starting to bring it into effect in the EU. But the mechanism was there. They did the code. They set up the databases. They did the final tests on it, the beta tests and the final tests were all run through all this stuff. And then they set up the political precedent that it could be put
Starting point is 01:00:07 out there and that even includes the united states and so the political precedent the actual mechanism of how to do that that was all done gates got it he got it right on time id 2020 and so he says well when we talk about digital identity for decades, this has been the solution that they have put out for every problem. Kit Knightley says terrorism. Well, digital identity will keep you safe. Illegal immigration. Digital identity will secure the border. And it will also make sure that they don't vote and make sure they don't take your job.
Starting point is 01:00:42 Right. They call that part of it. You verify. Most Republicans are hardcore on pushing that one. The pandemic, digital identity will keep track of who's vaccinated, who's not. AI, digital identity will prove who's human. We've talked about that before. Oh, look, AI is going to make it difficult to understand.
Starting point is 01:01:00 It's going to get so good, it's going to be hard to understand who's there. By the way, you know, I was just thinking thinking over the weekend i thought it was such an interesting thing just just a thought just a thought you know travis we talk about ai and it's funny it's always got six fingers right that was this this uh this it was some weird thing it's like why is it always drawn six fingers you know when you do uh thumbnails and stuff like that i was reading a passage um where it was talking about um in uh gath and these giants and everything and it was naming these guys who are brothers of goliath and everything that were later killed by david and his people and it's about him and talking about how they've all got six fingers
Starting point is 01:01:45 and six toes and really emphasizes that. So that 24, you know, that six fingers on each, six fingers on each toe and 24. And I thought, this is an interesting coincidence, isn't it?
Starting point is 01:01:59 That AI that I consider to be very satanic is putting six fingers on the early versions. Maybe they've fixed that now. I don't know. Did they fix that? Is that how? Yeah. Travis says it's still kind of a thing.
Starting point is 01:02:11 Sometimes it still does it. But then that was kind of a little interesting tell thrown in there by Satan. That's my perspective on that. Anyway. So, yeah. AI, the digital identity. Prove who's human. Because they're going to be doing fake stuff.
Starting point is 01:02:25 It doesn't have to prove. It doesn't have to identify itself. You're going to have to prove that you are human, right? Could have gone the other way, just like with illegal aliens. We're not going to control the borders. Instead, what we're going to do is make the citizens prove who they are. Even though we are going to bring in people, we don't care about the health issues about them you know just bring them in uh we don't have to test them to see if they're sick we don't have to vaccinate them
Starting point is 01:02:53 like they do american children with 70 some odd vaccines you don't have to do any of that for people coming from another country just come on in no problem. You want to have welfare? You want to have in-state tuition? You want to have free medical care? You want to have unemployment? No problem. We don't need to know who you are. Here's a check.
Starting point is 01:03:14 So, yeah, all of that, it's going to be the solution to everything. But as he points out again, there's no practical difference between 195 networked digital identities and so-called sovereign states, which will no longer be sovereign. And one single global currency that is interoperable. In 2019, Bloomberg was publishing articles with headlines like, Climate change will kill national sovereignty as we know it. And academics are telling us that states will remain unable to solve global crises like climate change until they let go of their sovereignty. Only question is really, you know, what are they going to have to have in order to make this happen as we had the Civil War make that happen in the United States?
Starting point is 01:04:02 By the way, the World Economic Forum is coming up in about, let's see, today's the 5th, about 10 days. World Economic Forum's annual meeting will take place from January the 15th through January the 19th, exactly 10 days from today. And my question about it, I wonder if Kevin Spacey is going to be there. You know, it's interesting that Tucker did everything he could to rehabilitate him and restore his image. The King of Davos.
Starting point is 01:04:33 Interesting timing. Um, you know, Tucker rehabilitated Kevin Spacey, just like he did Alex Jones. So I wonder what is going to happen. Will Kevin Spacey be a Davos? They've got a hashtag. If you want to follow them, hashtag WEF24. You can let me know if you see anything there. Because I was going to add the World Economic Forum to people that I followed.
Starting point is 01:04:56 I had not really looked at their Twitter. It's about a year and a half ago. And when I went to this, I said says you've been blocked i've been blocked i never interacted with them on twitter i understand when people get blocked uh for trolling people i'll do that on twitter now i didn't really care anymore about arguing with people at this point if you really if you're a professional who's in the trade if you're a writer at info wars and your response to me putting up the fact that Alex was telling everybody that the vaccine was sugar water, that Trump had our back and everything. If your response to that as a writer at InfoWars is going to be to go on that and to say, well, well, well, yeah, cry about it.
Starting point is 01:05:38 Well, I am crying about it. My question is to you, Kellen, is why aren't you crying about it? You don't care about the people that have been injured and killed? You don't care about the lies? You don't care about what has happened to us in terms of the destruction of our country's institutions with all that and our freedoms? You don't care about any of that stuff? You are a writer there still and you don't have the ability to defend what your boss said? I opposed him when I was there. Why don't you oppose him while you're there is it worth more to you to stay there than to leave so you know i understand
Starting point is 01:06:14 um when somebody like that trolls me i don't have any problem banning them but um and and you know i've had the same thing happen to me a fake jake tapper there was some shooting somewhere and he uh uh was uh or it was in ukraine i don't remember which one it was but you know you you got samuel hyde when every time there's a mass shooting uh it's become something of a joke to put up a meme showing Sam Hyde there. They put him up as the ghost of Kiev fighter pilot and all this other kind of stuff. And Jake Tapper bought into it and I trolled him on that. He blocked me. I understand that, you know, but I never did any of that stuff to. When you're not weighed down by high interest rates, life lightens up.

And I liked this article from Burning he, he begins by talking about the fourth turning and you all know about that. I began talking about the new year, uh,
Starting point is 01:07:50 earlier this week, I played the clip that I did, um, I don't know, 11 or 12 years ago. Uh, he says a headline on from burning platform, corruption,
Starting point is 01:07:58 chaos, and conflict. The fourth turning erupts in 2024. Strauss and how wrote back in it's either 91 or 92, said Americans today are increasingly polarized as if they constitute two separate nations. But it is coming to a head. It truly is. And if you look at a previous fourth turning, American Revolution, he begins his article with a quote from Thomas Paine.
Starting point is 01:08:27 In the American crisis, he wrote, These are the times that try men's souls. You've all heard that, right? The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country. But he that stands by it now deserves the love and thanks of men and women. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered.
Starting point is 01:08:50 Yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What I see different about America now and then, there's very few people who have that kind of determination, that kind of optimism we've become soft and dependent and most people don't understand the times that we're in the times that are going to try men's soul souls and the fact that we need some winter soldiers look
Starting point is 01:09:20 tyranny will be like hell especially this this tyranny. If they are successful, we'll talk about the four different scenarios that Hal talks about, four different possibilities that he sees coming out of this. And again, these guys predicted in 91 or 92, they said sometime in the mid 2000, 2005 to 2008, there's going to be a global financial crisis. Check. That happened. That'll be the beginning of the fourth turning, and it'll finish sometime around 2029. It'll be global, and it will be a resetting of pretty much all the major institutions.
Starting point is 01:10:03 These fourth turnings are always accompanied by financial unrest. They are almost always accompanied by war. The question is, what kind of war? Well, the war is going to be hell on earth. The tyranny, if they're successful, is really going to be hell on earth. It's going to be a tyranny that mankind has never seen before. But just understand, I don't want people to despair about this. Christ conquered hell.
Starting point is 01:10:37 And no matter what happens, this is why you need to have your long-term perspective in place. You know, when we look at Zero Hedge, for example, Zero Hedge says, in a long enough time, their motto, just like the Washington Post says, democracy dies in darkness. Zero Hedge's motto is, in a long enough time frame, there is, and I forget the exact quote. I've got it written down here somewhere. A long enough time frame, there is zero chance of survival. And that's true. My dad used to put it the way he says, well, in 100 years from now, we're not going to know the difference.
Starting point is 01:11:08 Don't freak out about it. In 100 years from now, we're not going to know or care about this fourth turning. Except that perhaps there's going to be some opportunities for you to do some things that will be remembered by God and by you 100 years from now. Or there will be things that you did not do and a relationship that you did not have with God that you will regret for all of eternity. That's the key as we go into all of this. But let's take a look at what is there
Starting point is 01:11:37 because God calls us to do certain things, right? We're saved, but then as Francis Schaeffer said, and then how should we live? Are we called to do things? Yes. Christ paid it all. Christ paid for our sins, removed them as far as the East is from the West,
Starting point is 01:11:55 if you're a Christian, if he is your Lord. And he's taken care of that. He's given us his righteousness. But what do we do? We just sit there and wait to die or something or do whatever we wish? As if we were our own sovereign Lord? No, we don't.
Starting point is 01:12:13 We are called to do good works. And part of that is to protect other people. Part of that may be warning other people, waking them up when they just want to live in the moment and they don't see what is happening. Anyway, going back to the Burning Man, he says, Our current millennial crisis was triggered by the Federal Reserve Wall Street government-created financial disaster in 2008 and subsequent outrageously desperate totalitarian unconstitutional extreme acts that were designed to keep the ruling class in power while impoverishing and enslaving the rest of us. The polarization and the fractures have become too deep to repair.
Starting point is 01:12:50 Nobody's going to fix Washington. You need to think of the Washington Capitol as a giant humpty-dumpty egg. We don't know who pushed it out. Well, we do know who pushed it over. But all the king's horses and all the king's men and all the Democrats, all the Republicans and whoever gets in the Oval Office, they ain't going to put it back together again. There's going to be an omelet coming.
Starting point is 01:13:14 We better hope we all don't get our goose cooked here with this. The country and the Western world in general are hurtling toward a darkening abyss of civil conflict, financial collapse, global war, societal chaos, and loss of life on a scale that is grander than World War II, the Civil War, and the American Revolution combined. And we may get all three aspects of that. The immense technological power in the hands of egocentric, megalomaniacal, sadistic billionaires and their highly paid toadies, lackeys and
Starting point is 01:13:45 apparatchiks inserted throughout the media. And that includes the Maga bird media, not just the mockingbird media. Throughout the media, throughout government, academia, banking and corporations has pushed the world to the brink of Armageddon. We are entering the 16th year of this fourth turning. And based on history, we can expect a climax of this in the, he puts in 2030 to 2032 timeframe. I would put a little bit earlier. I think it's going to accelerate even faster.
Starting point is 01:14:16 The path to that climax is guaranteed to be violent and unforgiving. And so Neil Howe in his new book, The Fourth Turning is Here, and again, his partner Strauss died a few years ago, so he has done the update to this. And he points out that, you know, he is, the first book was totally apolitical, nonpartisan. And I get the sense that the two of them were coming from different partisan sides. But of course, Strauss, who has passed on, was also somebody who participated in Capitol Steps. Do you remember them? I remember back in the 80s and 90s.
Starting point is 01:14:56 It's a very clever group of people that would play to audiences that were political. I remember NPR picked them up several times that's where i would hear it in the car and they would do things like um take uh they they would take songs and they would um change the lyrics to be about current events in politics for example when everybody was laughing about um um you know. Bush's vice presidential pick, Dan, I can't even remember his name now. But they did a thing instead of Stand By Your Man, the country western song, they did a thing called Stand By Your Dan. So it was very funny, especially if you're following politics. It was very funny.
Starting point is 01:15:43 And I used to know what his name was, but I can't remember now. The guy from India. I know that, but I'm starting to get old here. Anyway, so he says he got a chance to talk to him, the author of this, Burning Man. So I got a chance to talk to Hal in 2012 during the Occupy Wall Street protests, and he correctly assessed that movement as a meaningless left-wing attempt to push their communist-like agenda. But he said, even though there was no political agenda, there was no political perspective in their first book, he said, now there is.
Starting point is 01:16:23 And interestingly enough, Neil Howe, who has survived, leans left. And he said, you know, he's left leaning. He sees Zelensky as a patriotic leader, portrays Putin as a thug without giving any context regarding the 2014 CIA overthrow. He bought into the COVID scandemic hook, line, and sinker with no skepticism about the coordinated lockdowns, the false narratives about masks, social distancing, and vaccines that never worked but continue to kill. He believes the climate change BS narrative.
Starting point is 01:16:57 It's like, oh, well, you know, I looked at this, and we've been trying to get Neil Howe on to talk about the fourth turning. And I told Karen, I said, well, now we know why we can't get him on. He's leaning hard to the left. But he says, but he's still right about a lot of things. He said, you know, and I think that's true. You know, even though you can miss some of these things and probably would not have been missed if the other guy had survived.
Starting point is 01:17:24 But in spite of that. When you're not weighed down by high interest rates, life lightens up. MBNA TrueLine MasterCards have low interest rates on balance transfers and purchases to give your finances a lift. Find the credit card that's right for you. Visit mbna.ca slash Trueuelinecarts. Give your finances a lift. He says, when you look at his possible scenarios and outcomes, he says, I think he's really spot on with it. He said, his research reveals that Americans think that the American dream is no longer attainable, that civil discord will destroy our democratic institutions,
Starting point is 01:18:04 that our global standing is in decline well they believe these things because they're true um and um which you know a lot of times americans believe things that aren't true but this is something that is true he said this is all coming to fruition as we speak and he captures the current situation in this passage from the book. He says, in the middle of a crisis era, a fourth turning, the social mood has reached an unstable balance of hope, fear, and dizzying uncertainty. Americans are like a compressed spring at the point of maximum potential energy.
Starting point is 01:18:42 Internally secure, yet externally threatened, they are ready for propulsive public action in other words there's a spring that's about to blow up he said uh the speed has begun to accelerate 2024 is slated to be an historic date in history on par with 1776 1861 and 1941 he believes. And again, I've been saying, when we talk about the spring stuff, I've been saying both sides, as we see over and over again,
Starting point is 01:19:13 in poll after poll, both sides are just fed up. Now, I don't want to have, you know, the elections don't work. We see this open corruption. They don't even pretend to have honest elections anymore. They don't pretend that they want to even have debates or any of this. The open corruption and the disgust that everybody has with government, with the financial system, and all of the rest of this stuff. want to have force and violence and they want somebody who's going to rule over them as a
Starting point is 01:19:47 benevolent dictator to their side, which means that you will not be benevolent to the other side. You will give them the back of your hand. You'll give them the rod. And both sides want that and say that. More than half the people want a dictator. And so this next president who's going to come in, it's going to be very important because that president is going to take us up to 2029. I think that's going to be the deciding factor. But I think the thing that's going to kick it off, and I think the reason why 2024 is the year that this gets kicked off, is because of the election. I think the election is going to just suspend the election? We've had a lot of people say that. No, I don't think so.
Starting point is 01:20:33 I think what they're doing is with all of these phony charges, they are creating an expectation. You see them talking about a red wave again. Okay. The expectation is being created for people that, oh yeah, we should win. Our side should win. And if our side doesn't win, then we're done. Okay. January the 6th was just a prelude to all of this stuff.
Starting point is 01:20:59 It was a dress rehearsal. And you're going to have the same people like Alex Jones and others who are going to be pushing you into a civil war. Do not follow them. This is why I continue to talk about this. As I said before, I was accused earlier this week of being bitter. Oh, please pray for David. No, I'm very upset about what happened. I know exactly what these people did.
Starting point is 01:21:17 I was there. I talked to them face to face. I opposed them publicly. And I did that before I was fired. I was bitter before I was fired because I saw our country being betrayed. I opposed them publicly and I did that before I was fired. I was bitter before I was fired because I saw our country being betrayed. I saw people who had their businesses killed, then had their relatives and family killed, many of them hurt by these lies that were pushed out there. And the whole January the 6th stuff, this shall not pass. We will not let this guy get
Starting point is 01:21:43 into office no matter what happens. We're not going to let him in the Oval Office. Come on January the 6th. We're going to stop this steal. They're going to do the same thing after this election. This election, neither side, either the pro-Trump or the anti-Trump people, neither side is going to accept this election. There's going to be large numbers of people who do not accept this election. Where I saw that when Trump was elected the first time, he had a lot of leftists who did not accept it. It's going to be much bigger this time if he gets in. And of course, if he doesn't get in, the right is absolutely convinced that he should be the one who is there. That is going to be the basis of this civil war. The drivers of this fourth turning as documented in 1997 continue to be debt,
Starting point is 01:22:27 civil decay, and global disorder. And they have propelled this crisis. So he says, we're about to meet, even though we got a lot of people who don't care about anything other than their electronic gadgets, their unending access to being able to borrow money. They're NFL fantasy leagues. They're oblivious to what is going on in history. They're oblivious to what is really happening. And he said they're about to meet the reality of a violent fourth turning climax. He said the national debt at the beginning of this fourth turning and the national debt, uh, in 2008, when things blew up,
Starting point is 01:23:05 the national debt was 10 trillion. It had taken 219 years to get to $10 trillion. And yet, and, uh, just 15 years, we added 24 trillion, two and a half times the amount of debt that had been added in the last 219
Starting point is 01:23:24 years. We added two and a half times the amount of debt that had been added in the last 219 years. We added two and a half times that in just 15 years. He says that's been put on the back of Americans and future generations, if there are any future generations of Americans. This doesn't even take into account the $200 trillion of unfunded welfare and pension obligations. At the same time, the Federal Reserve increased their balance sheet from $900 billion
Starting point is 01:23:45 to $9 trillion. Yep, went up by a factor of 10. Tenfold. If banks were required to mark their assets to market as they did prior to 2009, the entire banking industry, including the too-big-to-fail Wall Street behemoths, would be insolvent, as well as the Federal Reserve. All of it. The giant banks, all the small banks, and the Federal Reserve itself are, by the standards of 2008, bankrupt. But they changed that, right? They just redefined it away. So, he says, luckily for our teetering empire of debt, delusion, and deception,
Starting point is 01:24:29 they can change the rules whenever it suits their purposes until it all suddenly collapses like a vaxxed soccer player on the football field. The U.S. is not alone in being burdened with unpayable debt and unsustainable financial system. China and EU countries are also insolvent. The only major global power without a large debt problem is, who do you think? Russia.
Starting point is 01:24:52 They have a debt to GP ratio that is below 30%. The US debt to GDP ratio is 120%. In the EU, it's 90%. In China, it's 80%. And worst of all, in Japan, 220% debt to GDP ratio. And so again, Russia only has 30% of debt to GDP ratio. So it is getting ready to hit us.
Starting point is 01:25:23 A man-made, banker-c created economic disaster ignited the powder keg of this debt in 2008. And again, you know, how was it a man-made? How was it banker created? It really does go back to a decade earlier when Bill Clinton removed the glass Stegall act that would re that restricted banks from getting involved in speculative investments
Starting point is 01:25:47 with high margins. That was put there when, after the Depression, they said, we're going to, in order to restore the banking system, we're going to set up an insurance corporation, the FDIC, and we're going to back up the banks, but we're going to put in the restriction that they can't get involved in all this financial speculative stuff. Well, Bill Clinton removed that, and the Bill Clinton administration also approved the merger
Starting point is 01:26:13 of California's Bank of America with Nations Bank in North Carolina, moved the headquarters to North Carolina. It was very helpful to them to have Erskine Bowles, who was part of the banking industry in North Carolina. It was very helpful to them to have Erskine Bowles, who was part of the banking industry in North Carolina, to be a high-ranking official in the Clinton administration. And when that happened, everybody said, you're going to wind up with just a handful of banks in a short period of time.
Starting point is 01:26:37 And you had a handful of banks that were too big to fail a decade later. That it all got involved in these securitized, they took one of the most secure things, real estate, and turned it into a casino. And the whole thing blew up. And it was Bill Clinton who was at the epicenter of all of that. So where are we now?
Starting point is 01:27:01 Well, he says, the U.S. is nothing more than a sophisticated technological looting operation at this point. And we are awaiting the great taking. That's David Roger Webb's warning about what is coming. I've talked about this before. The seizure of all your assets, your stocks, your bonds, your savings by your own government in the name of some new contrived national emergency. You will sacrifice your life savings for the good of the country. People sacrifice so much as they kicked off global governance in 2020, right?
Starting point is 01:27:35 Well, I guess I have to do all this. At this point, it's just a matter of which one comes first, the great taking or the global war or the civil chaos caused by this ongoing election fraud. When you're not weighed down by high interest rates, life lightens up. MBNA TrueLine MasterCards have low interest rates on balance transfers and purchases to give your finances a lift. Find the credit card that's right for you. Visit mbna.ca slash truelinecards.
Starting point is 01:28:06 Give your finances a lift. They're all coming. They will all merge into a category five hurricane of hell for the nation and for the world. And so he says, when we take a look at what is happening and all these different flashpoints of conflict throughout the Middle East and Ukraine and others, he says, but especially in the Middle East, all it's going to take with all of these missiles and drones that are out there, all it's going to take is one lucky strike, not a cigarette, uh, but a missile or something like that, that is going to sink an American ship. And then all hell breaks loose. That is going to be, uh, that could be, uh, something like that would be the trigger for kicking this off.
Starting point is 01:28:48 And so when we look at what is happening, Neil Howe says in his new book, Fourth Turning Is Here, he says, roughly half of all Americans think a civil war is likely. And a growing number of social scientists agree that the U.S. now fits the checklist profile of a country at risk. Trust in the national government is in steep decline. Check. Respect for democratic institutions is weakening. Check. A heavily armed population has polarized into two evenly divided partisan factions. Check. Each faction embodies a distinctive ethnic, cultural, and urban versus rural identity. Yeah, remember when we talk about the civil wars in America in 1861, the civil war in Italy from 1861 to 1865, as I pointed out earlier in the week?
Starting point is 01:29:37 It was rural versus urban. Yeah, that's a big economic divide. It's a big cultural divide. And we see those economic and cultural divides, steroids here in America right now. Each wants its country to become something that the other detests. Each fears the prospect of the other taking power. So that's what he's saying in his book right now. Truthfully, the Civil War has become begun says uh the burning platform
Starting point is 01:30:05 but only those on the left in conjunction with the fbi the cia big media and other governmental agencies are aggressively fighting it this is why i talk so much about donald trump because people on the right need to wake up about this they're being told and have been told don't worry about this trump's got got it. It's 4D chess. That was Alex's role in 2020. To assuage any concern about this, that was Trump's role. As I've said over and over again, do you think that if Hillary Clinton had done what Trump did in the spring and summer and fall of 2020, do you think that people would have just gone along with it?
Starting point is 01:30:46 The right would not have gone along with it. The left went along with it, even though it was Donald Trump, because that's really what they want. They want this perception of safety. They want the government to tell them what to do. But the conservatives would not have gone along with it unless you had had people like Alex pushing Trump as the anti-globalist for five years. And then telling everybody he's taking care of it.
Starting point is 01:31:15 He's taking care of all of it. He's even taking care of the vaccine. You don't have to worry about that. Bill Gates had a bad vaccine for it, but we got the good vaccine because of Trump. So far, the good guys have done nothing, but they're simmering anger is all there. But right now, they're kind of sitting there waiting, even though a lot of them see what's going on. They're waiting. And what are they doing?
Starting point is 01:31:37 They're betting it all on Trump. If Trump can get in, everything will be fine. And they're going to stop buying ammunition, stop buying guns and everything. They'll put everything away. All right, we're cool now. Trump's got everything covered. If David Webb is correct and those in power initiate the great taking, the level of violence and reaction will be unprecedented in U.S. history.
Starting point is 01:31:59 Maybe that's their plan. Biden and his handlers could use this event to declare a national emergency, suspending the presidential election because they were going to lose and instituting martial law. I don't think that's going to be the case, frankly. I think it'll be more likely that they're going to continue doing what they're doing, building the resentment and the anger about what is being done to the rights champion, Donald Trump, so that they explode when they don't get what they think is the inevitable outcome. He says, I don't believe, he says, even if the presidential election is held, I don't think either side is going to accept the outcome. That truly is the case.
Starting point is 01:32:41 You know, and so he's looking at it really kind of from a right-wing bias he does at one point in this say well you know trump when he let all this stuff happen he's either a fool or he's complicit in all this my i vote that he's benedict donald um but um you know how has got a left-wing bias on this and you know we have a right-wing bias on it but many people still are silent because they accept trump as the counter to all of these evils of lockdown of universal basic income of the great taking of trillions of dollars in debt of the sugar water jab as alex calls it they think that trump didn't do any of that when he brags about what he did. Multiple states are now attempting to unlawfully keep Trump off the ballot in their states.
Starting point is 01:33:33 And the animosity between the right and the left grows even deeper. And so, again, depending on what they're going to do, they're going to keep escalating this because they want a civil war. Trump is just what they're using for this. All scenarios for 2024 seem depressing and dark. He says, we know, and what I do know, is that pessimism about the future continues to deepen, paranoia strengthens, trust declines, anger grows, and the arrogance of those who are running the show has reached epic levels.
Starting point is 01:34:03 So he said, the vaccine is now clearly revealed to be a depopulation weapon, killing off some. Again, this is where he finally gets to a Trump. He knows that Trump is doing this, says he's either a fool or a charlatan. That was the term that he used, charlatan. I say a puppet. The climate change scam is hastening as all this happens. So he said, what are the four scenarios that neil howe has in his new book
Starting point is 01:34:27 and again even though he is totally clueless about what is going on uh with ukraine the ukraine coup and all the rest of this stuff even though he's totally clueless about the covid lockdown and climate change and things blinded by that. He does have an interesting perspective. And here's four scenarios. He says, number one, the fourth turning, this fourth turning could mark the end of man. It could be an Armageddon, destroying everything, leaving nothing. If mankind ever extinguishes itself, this will probably happen when its dominant civilization triggers a fourth turning i'm a christian so i don't believe any of that god will end it in his terms when he's ready to do it i don't believe that we're going to end the world with nuclear war there'll still be people
Starting point is 01:35:16 that'd be left even in a nuclear war and uh god will destroy it directly in his timing. Number two, his other scenario, the fourth turning could mark the end of modernity. This is a very possible outcome when you look at what they're doing with the climate change stuff. They really are trying to take us because it'd be easier for them if they were to take all of the technological and modern achievements that we've had, remove them from us, take us back to being serfs and paupers and slaves, those of us who remain after their wars, while they continue to keep their technology. I see that as a very real possibility. Number three, the fourth turning could spare modernity, but could mark the end of America. This nation has endured three fourth turnings.
Starting point is 01:36:10 He calls them seculars in their book. Rome lasted through 12 of them. The Soviet Union only lasted through one of them. Each of these last American crises produced moments of extreme danger. And that's the revolution of civil war and world war two. We survived those, but here's his fourth scenario. He says,
Starting point is 01:36:36 or the fourth turning could simply mark the end of the millennial seculum mankind, modernity, and America would all persevere. And afterward, there would be a new mood, a new high, and a new seculum. Mankind, modernity, and America would all persevere. And afterward, there would be a new mood, a new high, and a new seculum. America would be reborn, but reborn, it would not be the same. Because America was not the same after each of these previous ones. After the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, or World War II, America is not the same. We'll be better or worse if we survive. Here's the reality. I love America. I was born here. I identify with America.
Starting point is 01:37:14 I wouldn't want to live anywhere else. But America is not my home. I'm just a stranger and a pilgrim passing through. And so are you. The question is, what is your destination? Do you know your creator? When we look at these things, and it is very serious, a lot of bad news, but the basis of all of this is the good news, the gospel of what Christ has done. That transcends all of this is the good news the gospel of what christ has done that transcends all of this
Starting point is 01:37:48 that should strengthen you and give you a path to give you a vision for what to do without that it truly is a hopeless zero-hedge situation. We'll be right back. Hear news now at APSradioNews.com or get the APS Radio app and never miss another story. © transcript Emily Beynon Thank you. Analyzing the globalist's next move. And now, The David Knight Show. Have you ever wondered why there is nobody talking, really, about changing anything in terms of the usurpation of power by the public health officials or pointing out what is really happening with the vaccine. We do have the Surgeon General of Florida, Joseph Latipo, who was appointed by DeSantis. And he is now saying, don't take these vaccines. And he's getting a lot of pushback.
Starting point is 01:40:02 I'm glad that he's doing it. As I said in the past, you know, DeSantis has done more than anybody else to oppose this stuff. I said, I wish they would do more for the longest time. You know, they came out first. They said, well, you know, the benefits of getting this vaccine do not outweigh the risk for kids. So don't take it. But they're still giving it to the older people.
Starting point is 01:40:21 But now they've come out and they've said, don't take the vaccine for anybody. That's good. It's really late, but it's better late than never. And it's still never for everybody else, except for DeSantis and Joseph Latipo. Why is that? Well, there's a report at LifeSite News. Pfizer spent millions currying favor with Democrats and Republicans in 2022.
Starting point is 01:40:48 And they've got the list. And we're going to name names and show you why they are silent. Pfizer is investing in political races. Because long ago, they owned, they invested and ownednn and fox news and all these different politicians so in the last election cycle uh pfizer his political arm supported 1927 candidates about 2000 to say and multiple political committees as i earlier, 52% of the money went to Republicans and 48% went to Democrats. And so they've got three different tiers of people, really. You've got people who got $2,500 or less.
Starting point is 01:41:37 This is the first tier. People like Tommy Tuberville of Alabama, Senator Tuberville. Senator Sinema of Arizona, Senator Cotton of Arkansas, Senator Mark O. Rubio, Mark O. Rubio of Florida, Democrat Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz of Florida, Jim Banks of Indiana, Gretchen Whitmer, the governor of Michigan, the governor, the Republican governor of Mississippi, Tate Reeves, and Kristi Noem of South Dakota, who is making her bid to be vice president with Trump. In the second tier, you have Republican Representative Devin Nunes of California, Democrat Senators Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut, Chris Coons of Delaware, Mazie Hirono of California, Democrat Senators Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut, Chris Coons of Delaware, Mazie Hirono of Hawaii, Tammy Duckworth of Illinois. You've got on the Republican side, you've got Tim Scott, who was running for president.
Starting point is 01:42:40 Bob Menendez of New Jersey. I wonder if they paid old Bob. I wonder if they gave him gold bars. You know, that seems to be the way he prefers his graft and corruption. You've also got Republican governors, Kim Reynolds of Iowa, Greg Abbott of Texas. I said
Starting point is 01:42:56 from the very beginning when he got these billions of dollars from Trump, Greg Abbott, the first thing he did was he gave $300 million to this little tiny shell corporation. I mean, there was nobody there. You had one alternative media guy went up and filmed.
Starting point is 01:43:12 He said, this is an empty office. And if you look at the resume of this guy, he's like, where is he coming from? And there were a lot of stories from both conservative and liberal press that came out asking questions. What is this about? $300 million for contact tracing of people to some guy that doesn't have any credentials and a company that nobody's ever heard of up in Frisco, Texas. And then all of a sudden it just stopped.
Starting point is 01:43:35 Everybody stopped talking about it. Okay. Well, I think I know where Abbott is coming from. Also, Brian Kemp, Governor Kemp of Georgia, the guy who has gone to Davos World Economic Forum and many other things that he's done. Brad Little of Idaho, one of the worst of the lockdown governors. All these people say, well, it's just the Democrat governors. No, they all took the money, just like you got Republicans and Democrats all taking the money from Pfizer. They all took it from Trump as well to do the stuff that Trump wanted.
Starting point is 01:44:07 They're taking the money from Pfizer. Do what Pfizer wants. Brad Little in Idaho was given more money by Donald Trump than the entire state budget. And it was all at his personal discretion, just like it was for all these governors. Greg Abbott, all of them. Okay. It was all their personal discretion, what they want to do with it. Gavin Newsom, Trump just gave the, you know, tens of billions of dollars to these, each
Starting point is 01:44:32 of these governors. And so there was a Republican legislature in Idaho, along with the Republican governor. And just like it was in Texas, they pulled this all off on a year in which those legislatures, those state legislatures don't meet. Now in Idaho, the Republican legislators said, we need to have a special session. We got to stop some of this stuff that Brad Little is doing.
Starting point is 01:44:59 Brad Little dissolved them, told them they couldn't meet and they then back down. And he's acting like some colonial government, a governor in Virginia or something, you know, prior to the American revolution telling you just banning the, uh, the, the state legislature. Then he put together some rules, which would have, um, said, uh, basically put, uh, uh, financial, uh uh blackmail on businesses said if you enforce our rules if you tell people that they've you know they got to do the ritual of
Starting point is 01:45:34 going in one door and out the other and they got to stay six feet apart and they got to wear masks if you do all this stuff we're going to indemnify you. We will protect you from any liability in case somebody sues you because they get COVID and get sick. But if you don't do that, Oh, well, people might sue you and you might lose your business after all. That was what Brad little put together.
Starting point is 01:45:58 And then he called the Republican legislature into, into service. So, yeah, he got a lot of money from Pfizer. That second tier, they got $6,500. Then we go to the third tier. In the third tier, you've got Chuck Grassley of Iowa. You've got Rand Paul, Rand Paul of Kentucky. Now you know why Rand Paul had his wife buying remdesivir stock on the side. Why Rand Paul would get Fauci and say, you know, Dr. Fauci, with this vaccine that you're pushing, you're going to create vaccine hesitancy.
Starting point is 01:46:41 By pushing this when it's not been tested. Rand Paul's big concern when they were talking about vaccine mandates. Well, you're not going to back. You're not going to mandate this for people like me who've already had it. Right. They can prove that they've had it. It's like, what is that about? Wow. Why would you draw the line there?
Starting point is 01:46:59 That's insane. And then Rand Paul, whose biggest issue is how he made this all about Fauci and only about Fauci and how he made it about the Wuhan lab and only about the Wuhan lab, not even about the vaccine. Rand Paul was paid off. Mike Lee of Utah paid off. Steve Scalise of Louisiana paid off. They all got between $7,500 and $9,000 apiece, which is a pretty big contribution for corporation to these senators. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Chuck Schumer, New York, Governor Michelle Grisham of New Mexico, they each got $10,000. Mike DeWine of Ohio got $14,700.
Starting point is 01:47:47 Yeah, million-dollar Mike. The guy who set up the possibility that you could win a million dollars if you take this jab. That Republican governor. $14,700. Republican Governor Chris Sununu of New Hampshire and Democrat Governor Kathy Hochul of New York each got $15,000. While Glenn Youngkin of Virginia got the most, $25,000. Remember how they were pushing him and saying, you know, he's the real alternative to Trump and everything. And if the election had gone more Republican in Virginia, the establishment people were really going to push him as an alternative to Trump.
Starting point is 01:48:32 He's also somebody who's gone to Davos. And by the way, when we talk about million-dollar Mike DeWine, on his COVID team was Ramaswamy, who was out there trying to set up a deal for surveillance and tracing. The same type of thing that I was talking about with Greg Abbott. Except that Ramaswamy wanted to be the guy who was going to make the money off of it. Pfizer gave altogether $2.5 million to individual candidates and more than $6 million to leadership packs and trade associations and party committees. So for $8.5 million, Pfizer got tens of billions of dollars from Donald Trump and these senators and these congressmen
Starting point is 01:49:16 who will not do anything to pull it back and will not oppose them on anything. Think about that. Think about what a fantastic return on investment that is. You give these people millions of dollars and you get back tens of millions of dollars. In other words, for every dollar that you give a politician, you get back $10,000. That's why we have the corruption we do. That's why you're not going to fix it in Washington.
Starting point is 01:49:51 They have unlimited amounts of money, your money, and made-up fiat currency that they can send out, and you're not going to pull it back. As LifeSite says, as can be gleaned from some of the names such as Rand Paul receiving Pfizer money doesn't necessarily correlate with support for the medical establishment or the left-wing COVID-19 policies. Oh, no, it did. It did.
Starting point is 01:50:12 They're wrong about that. As I said, you know, pushing for vaccine. You're going to create vaccine hesitancy, Dr. Fauci. Buying the remdesivir stock, making it all about the Wuhan lab and pushing this narrative about some kind of virus. So do you buy, you know, when you look at the advertising that's on the network TV stuff, I want to just ask you, you know, do you buy these pharmaceutical products because the ads that you see there, Do you really ask your doctor?
Starting point is 01:50:47 You know, doctor, I would really like to have this, this mum-a-dub-a-dub-a-dub-a, you know, they come up with these ridiculous names. I really need to have that. Can you look and can I get that from you? No, people are not asking them for that. Pfizer's not trying to sell you drugs with their ask your doctor commercials. They're not trying to sell you anything. They ask your doctor commercials they're not trying to sell you anything they're buying fox they're buying cnn they're buying people like tucker carlson and
Starting point is 01:51:11 sean hannity and jesse waters that's who they're buying they're not selling anything to you and they're buying these politicians left and right and so they go on they talk about you know look we know from the the various thing and the har Harvard study that only 1% of the vaccine adverse effects. And we've had in 2021 Project Veritas going around and talking to people. Why don't you do? Well, it's so much paperwork. It takes forever to do this, but there's also a lot of pressure. They don't want us to talk about this.
Starting point is 01:51:39 You got the Pentagon DMED database, which was set up to give early warning about biological attacks. And it did. And then when it did warn about the biological attack of the Trump shot, the Pentagon shut it down. Because the politician's silence is golden. And it can easily be bought with enough gold out there. So disability claims amongst women this is a new thing that's just um been identified from the department of labor uh disability claims amongst women shot up by 55 after the rollout of the trump shots they call them covid vaccines. They're neither a vaccine and it's not going to fix anything about COVID either.
Starting point is 01:52:27 So we get to Latipo and this circulated for a day or two before they determined that they were going to push back. And to push back, they got the Associated Press, which is really AP is really associated propaganda, propaganda that is associated with a government and its agendas. And so they're pushing back against this and saying, this is misleading claims. Again, I just remind you, DeSantis is not on the list of those that were paid off. Florida State Surgeon General, Dr. Joseph Latipo said,
Starting point is 01:53:01 AP is finally calling for doctors to stop recommending mRNA COVID-19 vaccines. I added the finally. They didn't put that there. Citing alleged health risks promoted by anti-vaccine activists. The federal officials have already refuted as implausible and misleading. That's all they did. They didn't say why. And the basis of all this is the contamination, the DNA contamination, which is a proven fact.
Starting point is 01:53:31 And it is at such a level that under law, the FDA is supposed to suspend this. And so you've had multiple people, they say, well, they're anti-vax. Multiple people have said to the FDA, this does not meet your purity standards, and you need to stop this right now. And the FDA refuses. That's a scandal. And so that's the basis on which LATIPO has raised its concerns. But then they just come back and say, well, no, the FDA says that the benefits outweigh the risk. And the FDA has said this is misleading information.
Starting point is 01:54:02 That's it. That's what we get from these people. Basically, they're not the FDA has said this is misleading information. That's it. That's what we get from these people. Basically, they're not the FDA. And the Associated Press are really amateurs when it comes to pushing this stuff. The real expert to tell you there's nothing to worry about. Three-week attenuated classic viruses with a very low amount of adjuvant in it trump's looking at basically sugar water for folks can we take a little bit of a attenuated you know microwaved or radiated covid deal absolutely that's why trump is taking control of the process
Starting point is 01:54:37 yeah that's why trump's taking control of the process he's in control and then later he says well yeah they fooled him. He didn't know what was doing. So rascals in Washington, they fooled Trump, but vote for him because he's going to take control of everything again. And then he's going to really fix everything again. CBS News said that Latipo's argument isn't about the vaccine's mRNA integrating into the human genome. Instead, it's suggesting that contaminant DNA might activate an oncogene. In other words, cause cancer. AP explains this is what anti-vaxxers call turbo cancer, which doesn't exist, says CBS. Well, yes, it does. We have seen it over and over
Starting point is 01:55:20 again. She also pointed out, biologically speaking mrna can't integrate into your dna mrna vaccines are not gene therapy oh yes they are as a matter of fact i pointed out in 2021 thomas jefferson university a small university that evidently wasn't on the take said you know we can modify dna using mrna they would always say prior to that and i said okay well they want to say that mrna isn't going to affect your dna they said it doesn't modify it doesn't embed it what it does is it copies it and i said okay well if it doesn't make an exact copy that's a modification isn't it and yet it goes beyond that it goes beyond an error it can actually modify it that's been shown look it up thomas jefferson university uh so uh this is um what they have done they said as for the benefits of the vaccines researchers based in london have
Starting point is 01:56:11 estimated that covid vaccines saved nearly 20 million lives worldwide in the first year alone including 1.9 million americans who would have otherwise died in the pandemic this is a lie being told to you still by people like donald trump now the deaths spiked when they mandated the vaccines in the third and fourth quarter so um uh this um article from the federalist i like the headline why isn't vaccine tyrant jo Biden worried about polio, leprosy, measles seeping through the border? Well, it's kind of a rhetorical question, but the reality is it was never about a disease. It was always about creating fear so they could control people. And it was about depopulation.
Starting point is 01:57:01 Of course, you're not worried about other diseases that are out there. If your real concern is to make sure that you're going to have a depopulation. Of course, you're not worried about other diseases that are out there. If your real concern is to make sure that you're going to have depopulation. Alex Berenson put out a piece called On the Mysterious Case of Tom Skoka, who is a lefty middle-aged journalist that he happened to know or have involvement with, I guess. He loved the mrna covet shots now he is badly sick with autoimmune disease did the jabs cause it well he's not even asking he says covid hysteria ecstatic from the get-go uh he would call anyone who disagreed with him a ghoul you know it's the same way that scott adams said at the very beginning of this, it's getting harder and harder to tell these freedom lovers from sociopaths.
Starting point is 01:57:48 Calling people like me sociopaths. So I said to him, I replied, I said, well, it's getting harder and harder to tell pragmatists like you from totalitarians. Because you think it's your business what I do. And you demand to tell me what to do. So how many mRNA shots did Skoka get himself? At least four. Because you think it's your business what I do. And you demand to tell me what to do. So how many mRNA shots did Skoka get himself? At least four. He publicly complained that the U.S. had not done enough to encourage people to achieve so-called bivalent booster and so forth.
Starting point is 01:58:18 Yet something strange happened to him in 2023. As explained in detail, he got COVID, got very sick. And that was only the beginning of it. After that, after his COVID infection, he got muscle weakness, very severe. His blood had very high levels of creatine, kinase. The doctor said he appeared to have myositis. But as they looked at it more and more they diagnosed him with hashimoto's disease an autoimmune attack on the thyroid gland so um he said you'll be unsurprised to hear that that is one of the things that has been identified with the mrna trump shots He doesn't call it the Trump shot. It's the Trump shot.
Starting point is 01:59:06 But anyway, he doesn't call it that. But that's one of the things, as well as everything that he's suffering from. But again, he is still not awake. He is unwilling to question whether or not the mRNAs could be linked to them. By the way, a police detective, and this is an article from Children's Health Defense, police detective, former police detective, said that around 50% of the 250 sudden infant
Starting point is 01:59:38 death syndrome cases that she investigated, because when an infant dies suddenly, they would go out, and I've talked about this years and years ago, and a person come on and said, you know, they'll say it was shaken baby syndrome or something like that. You got angry with the baby. So they'd always send the police out to investigate. She said of the 250 that she investigated over seven years, she said 50% of them happened within 48 hours after a vaccination.
Starting point is 02:00:04 That 70% of them happened within 48 hours after a vaccination. That 70% of them happened within one week. Is she a conspiracy theorist? No. She is an investigator. That's what detectives do, right? You go out and you say, well, what can I correlate this with? What kind of correlations do I see out here with this? And you try to put that together, and then you continue to look at it. She argued that this timing proves that vaccines
Starting point is 02:00:31 are behind sudden infant death syndrome, because the correlation would not be observed if the deaths were occurring randomly. She had worked in a major city of over 300,000 people. And she simply identified herself as Jennifer. And she shared the story with Steve Kirsch, who said, this is one of the most important interviews I had. Actually, his most important interview they had, which I'm not going to cover today, but was with an emergency technician who was talking about how they were telling us, you know, get the ambulances ready because we are going to start injecting people.
Starting point is 02:01:13 And we've had that situation reported before, actually. I reported that. I had a story about six years ago. And it was a nurse who came out, and she said they would go into the nursery where they had the premature babies, and they were doing all kinds of extraordinary things to keep the babies alive. They had them all wired up in tubes up their noses and all this other kind of stuff. And yet, even though these babies were struggling for their lives,
Starting point is 02:01:46 they had a vaccine schedule. And she said they were going to give them these vaccines even though their body couldn't handle it yet. They really didn't care. The protocol was that X number of days after the baby is born, they're going to get these vaccines. And they knew it was going to, they said, okay, we're going to do the vaccines in the preemie ward,
Starting point is 02:02:12 get all the nurses ready. That was a big story. Steve Kirsch was not involved. He wasn't an anti-vaxxer before this stuff happened. As a matter of fact, they fooled him. He took the first shot. He was somebody who was trying to, he believed the narrative that they were putting out there.
Starting point is 02:02:29 He doesn't now, he understands that now, but he had a company and he was trying to come up with solutions and they would offer certain things. And, and it was really strange. I would just shut this stuff down. He goes,
Starting point is 02:02:38 wait a minute. You're telling me that this is a major epidemic and you don't want to try these other things. You're just going to shut it down because the only thing you want is a vaccine. That was the thing that woke him up. But I ran that report almost a decade ago. And, um, and it was a big deal. The fact that a nurse said, well, we know that they're going to kill the babies, but, uh, some people have caught on, especially when they started talking about the sudden adult death syndrome.
Starting point is 02:03:05 I'm going to play this for you. I just want to respond to a comment on rumble. A froggy trail said, I think if Trump wins and we get round to a fake pandemic, Trumpers will go right along with the mask and the lockdowns again, because Donnie will tell them to. That's exactly what I think is going to happen. But I think that it is equally likely that they will kick off a civil war, uh, by having
Starting point is 02:03:28 him lose. And then, um, you know, the Trump supporters are ready to fight over that this time around because of January the sixth, as I said, I didn't get into the January the sixth stuff tomorrow. I will be missing the debate on zero hedge, uh, between, uh, on the one side, Alex Jones and Darren Beatty. And on the other side, some lefties who I don't know, as I said, I had the debate on January the sixth with Alex in person. I know exactly what he knew.
Starting point is 02:03:57 I knew he knew he was a lie. I don't need to see that. And it's amazing to me that they would even, but it's amazing to me. Now the system has a re established Alex as if he's some kind of truth telling a guru. I know the opposite. And now a lot of people know what SIDS is about as well. You know, because something that's been going on for over 40 years just hit me.
Starting point is 02:04:24 I had a child that died of SIDS in 1984. For people that don't know what SIDS is, for over 40 years just hit me. I had a child that died of SIDS in 1984. For people that don't know what SIDS is, it's called Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, or crib death was another one. I've been saying this for 40 years, over 40 years. I don't understand this. He was just at the doctor's two weeks before.
Starting point is 02:04:38 Got his shots. He had the perfect health. Everything was great. And then last night, I watched, have you ever watched Mrs. G, the medical examiner? I can't say it now. Anyway, I watched her show and she says, what's at rise right now is the adult, sudden adult syndrome. Same thing as SIDS, but it's for adults. What happened lately that was forced upon people that they had to have? And all of a sudden, the rise of these adults dying for no reason is happening? And then it dawned on me that I poisoned my kid two weeks before with a vaccine that I was told was safe.
Starting point is 02:05:36 What if that's the cause of sudden infant death syndrome and they've been lying to us all this time and they've been experimenting on our babies since 1984 and before. And it's just come to light because we get more education now. We can get reached education. We're not just told whatever they want us to tell. We can look research online.
Starting point is 02:05:58 What if that's the cause of SIDS? What if me doing what I thought was good killed my baby? And it's just hitting me right now because I never put two and two together until now.
Starting point is 02:06:15 Tell me what you guys think. Do you think I'm kind of off my rocker? Do you think I'm just being stupid? I don't know. Because his death shaped my whole adult life., changed it completely. And I just wonder where I would be, what kind of person I would be if he didn't die. It made me very bitter and angry. It really did. ALEKSANDRA VILAZQUEZ Thank you. Sous-titres par LaVacheSquid Thank you. Making sense common again.
Starting point is 02:08:24 You're listening to The David Knight Show. All right, joining us now is Catherine Austin-Fitz. Always great to talk to Catherine, and I especially want to talk to her as we go into a new year. And she's also got, she's working very hard to try to help people get financial transaction freedom. We're going to talk about what that is. She's got a tour that's coming around Tennessee that's going to be happening there.
Starting point is 02:08:49 Catherine, in case you don't know her, she's president of Solari Incorporated, and that's at solari.com, that's S-O-L-A-R-I.com. She is a former assistant secretary of housing and federal housing commissioner at the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development in the first Bush administration, was the president of Hamilton Securities Group. And she has designed and closed over $25 billion worth of transactions and investments to date and has led portfolio and investment strategy for $300 billion of financial assets and liabilities. She understands the financial landscape, and she is committed to liberty. So joining us now is Catherine Austin Fitz. Thank you for joining us. Thank you, David. And I'm
Starting point is 02:09:30 excited because I'm coming, I'm headed to Tennessee this month and I'm hoping when I come through, I'm spending more time on the Eastern side of the state these days. I'm going to come through and meet you and your team. I'd love to do that. I'd love to do that. And you've got the tour that's coming up and let's talk about that. But first, we'll lay out what financial transaction freedom is. But let's talk about 2024 and also looking back at 2023. How do you see the top stories? As you were talking off air, you said you have your top stories for the year that you typically cover.
Starting point is 02:10:03 What did you see as the top stories for 2023? So we are great believers in open source intelligence. It's hilarious. Every week we pour into our databases the top headlines. So we're constantly pouring. If you do a search for the David Knight Show, you'll find a bunch of stuff. So we have a new media list and we're pouring in headlines from you know all different sources we get people sending us links all over the world and then weekly i do a show called money and markets with titus and we pick out the top 20 stories and talk about those for
Starting point is 02:10:35 that week and then when we get to the quarter and the year so every quarter but the last one is the annual wrap-up we have a team of four people who synthesize all the stories and sit down and say, okay, what are the most important stories that people, you know, individuals or families need to know to navigate this environment? What's important? And every time I come into one of those efforts, and it takes us about a month to build out to the top 20 stories
Starting point is 02:11:04 for the quarter of the year i think well i know what's going on you know i'm on top of it i'm watching the news and yet we go through the process and we realize after we've collected everything different you know together it's like oh you know i didn't realize how big that was or how important. Anyway, this time we normally, our top story is on the financial coup d'etat or the going direct reset. This time, our top story was not only very different, but typically we put all the top 20 stories on one page. This story was so big and so long, it had to have its own page and the other 19 stories, the second page. And the title is 2023, the year of pushback. And what I didn't realize, David, until I pulled it all together in all the different categories, the extent of
Starting point is 02:11:54 the pushback. It's almost like 2020, we get whacked. 2021, we realize something's fishy. 2022, we decide to take action and we start 2023 you see the lawsuits filed, you see the different businesses started or initiatives started and there are many different categories. But what happened is the pushback blossomed. And then if you look at how it's blossoming and who's doing what what what you realize is 2024 is going to be explosive it's beautiful it's beautiful that's going to be the
Starting point is 02:12:33 case the question is it's going to be putting the plunger down well it's funny i said you know i said when i was talking about it because we do you we do a recording, and it's a mega recording with Dr. Farrell that we'll publish next week with an analysis of all the 20 stories. But I said, this is like a big game of Texas chicken, where the establishment is trying to centralize, and the pushback is not only pushing back, but saying, you know something, we're going to do our own reset. I call it the building wealth reset. You're doing the going direct reset. We're going to do the building wealth reset. We're going to build wealth, bottom up, family wealth, community wealth. You know, we've had it with you guys destroying and stealing everything. So you got these two cars going together at 60 miles an hour. And, you know, the pushback team is looking much stronger than I ever realized until
Starting point is 02:13:24 we did this. So I came out of the process so enthusiastic. I think it's going to be a great year. Our quote for the commentary for this year is from a preacher down in Texas. He said, our situation is defined by extraordinary opportunities brilliantly disguised as impossible situations. That's like the guy who the American general who was surrounded and he goes, that's good news. We can attack them in any direction, right? That's I guess that's where we are right now. You know,
Starting point is 02:13:57 they've done their best to surround us. Well, you know, that's the thing. I look at it and I get frustrated because it seems like there's so many people who don't know. There's a lot more people who don't care. And then even amongst the people who know and care, a lot of them don't really know what to do. And that's what I like about what you do, because you've got some action items to take and especially focusing on the money part, because that is such an important aspect of control.
Starting point is 02:14:22 You know, it is central to the control. Yeah. Yeah. So we just have subscribers. You know, we had these hats called, you know, they're orange hats and say, make cash great again. And people are sending us pictures from all over the world.
Starting point is 02:14:34 Here's, you know, you know, cash, make cash great again on top of Mount Kilimanjaro, you know, but they're sending us pictures, including of their kids, because they're having their, you know, they're giving them to kids. But we get stories from all over the world how people are using cash and sort of dialing back the systems.
Starting point is 02:14:50 And it's so inspiring to hear all these stories because not only are they using cash, but they're beginning to engage with local businesses to talk about, okay, what are we going to do? How are we going to do? You know, they're talking to their banks. They're talking to their credit unions. They're talking to local businesses, and it's almost like they're coming out of the trance and getting ready to transact their way back to freedom. Good. And it's good. We did a great
Starting point is 02:15:14 interview in 2022 called Where to Stash Your Cash in 2022, and we're going to redo it this month, Where to Stash Your Cash in 2024, but it's sort of helping you build resiliency in your day-to-day life. And we also have a program called Building Wealth because, you know, as I said, we do need a reset, but we need a reset that rebuilds and builds family wealth and family wealth is the basis of community wealth. And, you know, the problem with what's going on is we basically have an organized crime operation that's stealing and taking our wealth so that's got to be reversed so you've got to you know push back against them getting financial
Starting point is 02:15:55 transaction control which and then they get that david they will take everything everything they will take everything so you know it's slavery or freedom but we also when we say no we reject your complete control we have to take responsibility bottom up to build the kind of culture and economy that you know we want our kids and grandkids growing up and that's absolutely true i've said many times i forget who said it i said you can't win a culture war if you don't have a culture we don't have a culture. We don't have a culture. We have set back and let them feed us a culture. And we just kind of watch.
Starting point is 02:16:30 Right. You can't run a financial system just with law and enforcement. Right. You know, the enforcement, the only productive enforcement comes from a moral culture and institutions that will allow their people and encourage their people to be moral. You know, it's funny. I just did an interview today with a gold company here, and I'm in the Netherlands right now. And they're a wonderful company. I've only done maybe four or five transactions with them.
Starting point is 02:16:57 But each time, totally clean, totally professional, high speed, no monkey business, no dirty tricks, everything clean as a whistle. Everybody now to the drivers, you're great. It's like boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. And you think, you know, this is how it should work. Yes. But they have, if you look at who owns them and how they operate, they're highly moral. And, you know, it's culture that's going to drive that. I don't know if you saw it, but we did this wonderful panel with CHD Tennessee in Rogersville with Senator Nicely and Representative Halsey. Oh, I have to see that.
Starting point is 02:17:33 Oh, it was a hoot. Can I tell you? It was so great. First, I did a speech. Then we did the panel. If you watch it, just cut to the panel because Halsey and Nicely are great. But Halsey gives this whole description of how the Constitution came out of a culture and a morality. And unless we protect and nurture and enforce that culture, nothing good can come from anything.
Starting point is 02:18:02 And it's very eloquent. I agree. know it is very important to have people that you trust and everything that's why you know we we work with um tony arteman at wise wolf gold and he's even set up a a website david knight dot gold and and we were just talking about yesterday how costco they sold uh what was that 100 million or 300 million i don't know what it was amazing amount of gold you know but um walmart is getting in it now but it's like you want to deal with people that you know and people i don't want walmart knowing what i own exactly exactly yeah you go down to walmart you could buy it with your jp morgan card you know and the make of america card and and but that's the that kind of defeats
Starting point is 02:18:40 a lot of the purpose of that you You say in the foreword to your financial transaction freedom, you have a quote from William Faulkner. It says, we must be free, not because we claim freedom, but because we practice it. And I thought that was really profound. You know, we always talk about, well, you know, we've got the constitution, we've got this and that, you know, well, you know, they had the declaration of independence, but they still had to fight the war, you know, to get that independence. You can't just declare your independence. You've got to make it happen. And that's really what this document is about, the financial transaction freedom. Tell us a little bit about that.
Starting point is 02:19:11 Tell us, first of all, give us your definition of that. So there are two big documents in this wrap-up. And the first one, interestingly enough, came from Tennessee. I was meeting with a group of state legislators and some of the government officials. And there's a wonderful guy who runs the revenue department. He's a really smart guy. And he said, would you write a memo for me on financial transaction freedom? What is it? What threatens it? And what can we do to protect it and you know that's that was a harder job i got my general counsel and i and we wrote it and um so let's start with what is financial transaction freedom financial transaction freedom is the ability to trade you know to trade money for
Starting point is 02:19:59 goods or to you know to barter swap and and and to do it in a way where, one, it's private, two, you have multiple options, three, it's liquid, and nobody's stopping or controlling you by controlling your financial transactions. So we all know the story of what happened to the Canadian truckers. That is financial transaction control. Now, what I believe, if you go to celeri and you down on the right there's a panel that says uh videos on financial transaction freedoms and cbdcs and and it's a list of 80 uh 80 short videos that show you what the central bankers are planning on doing, including asserting total control of
Starting point is 02:20:46 your money. Oh yeah. So that one, they can make rules centrally and enforce them centrally with AI and software on all digital systems that control your money. So if they decide they want to raise taxes, they just take it out of your account. If they decide it'll help with inflation, they just freeze your account, you know, and they describe the out of your account. If they decide it'll help with inflation, they just freeze your account. And they describe the deposits in your account as an expression of central bank liability. It's not your money, it's their money. That's number one. Number two, they want to program money.
Starting point is 02:21:17 So if they don't want your money working more than five miles from your house, or they don't want you buying pizza because they think it's not good for you, then your money won't buy pizza your money your you know your digital uh your digital cards and digital transactions and bank transactions won't work you know if you're more than five miles from your home so it's called programmability anyway so if you look at the first couple videos there's also one of the great videos there is a video from one
Starting point is 02:21:46 of the presidents of the one of the 12 fed banks saying i understand why china wants cbdc's but why would americans ever let this happen yeah you know i mean because you're talking about a slavery system if they get financial transaction control and control of the food supply which is part of what they're to, and if you look at some of our wrap-ups, we've written a lot about that recently as well, because it's part of the same play. If they get financial transaction control, David, and they can control your bank account and institute taxation without representation, then they can dictate anything. They can dictate what drugs you're going to take. They can dictate whether or not you've got to take injections. They can dictate where your kids go to school. They can dictate that your kids can't live with you anymore.
Starting point is 02:22:33 They've got to come to XYZ government boarding school, whatever. That's right. You're talking about a slavery system. Oh, yeah. And the fourth video in the stack is Richard Warner, the top central bank expert in the world video in the stack is richard warner the top central bank expert in the world in my opinion academic expert uh explaining that one of the top central banks uh heads in europe told him it's a chip they're planning on putting in our hands so and
Starting point is 02:22:57 we've seen discussions at the world economic forum with the head of nokia and others talking about how we're going to all be chipped. Yeah. Yeah. For convenience, you know, for convenience. And it really is. For their convenience. Yeah. Yeah. You want to have, I played the video over and over again from, that was produced in
Starting point is 02:23:14 Ukraine. And they said, well, you know, after we get past this war and we're victorious, 2030 is just going to be great. You know, when you, any interaction that you have with other people, but especially all the different things that you're required to do with government, we'll just make that so convenient because we'll have a CBDC and we'll have your everything that you have will be on your phone and so forth. And it's like, wow, this is totally comprehensive. And as you pointed out, they're going to be able with the programmability, make your money invalid if you're not in the correct area. It's all about enslaving and imprisoning this, you know,
Starting point is 02:23:45 and make sure we don't travel. Yeah. Right. So when the world economic forum says it's 2030 and you have no assets, the question is how do they strip you of all your assets? How do they strip you of your property rights? How do they strip you of your assets? And the way you do it is if you can get total financial transaction control,
Starting point is 02:24:02 then you can strip people of all their assets. You just turn off their money. That's right. Yeah, we already saw a little bit of this. You mentioned the Freedom Convoy. That was a big wake-up for everybody because now it's no longer a conspiracy theory. It's a conspiracy reality. They've already done it.
Starting point is 02:24:17 And then we saw, you know, on January the 6th, we saw Bank of America, a Stasi list of, here's all the people that had financial transactions within this area on January the 6th and, oh, no, by the way, here's our records of all the people who used our credit card to buy guns. You want to put those together, FBI? So we know how they're going to use this. It's very sinister, and when you look
Starting point is 02:24:39 at it, it's almost as if Bank of America was asking them, would you like us to confiscate their money and lock up their accounts? Right. Yeah. Exactly. Yeah. It truly is amazing.
Starting point is 02:24:50 So, you know, when we look at it, there's some other things on it as well. I'm looking at the memo and there's a downloadable PDF that you have at Solari.com. Right. So if you come into Solari, it just says Financial Transaction Freedom Memo and we have it in PDF and you can download we sell hard copies for free or we put it in the wrap-up you can buy that but if you're a subscriber but just download it for free print it out make as many copies as you want spread it everywhere and and so you you define what you just define what financial freedom is you're
Starting point is 02:25:21 have multiple different ways outside of their system a lot of different options and things like that privacy um and uh no surveillance and that type of thing but then you also have action items because i've talked for the longest time about cbdc go ahead tell us about the action items the next step well to understand action items you have to understand what threatens financial transaction freedom because it's not just central bank controls and CBDCs and digital IDs. It's also power outages, okay? It's cybersecurity attacks. There are all sorts of other things. When the cyclones hit in New Zealand,
Starting point is 02:25:54 the governor of the central bank there gave a press conference afterwards, and he said, thank God for cash. If we hadn't had cash, we would have been, and I'll turn to John Titus that week, and I said, I guess he didn't get the memo. But remember when there was that huge power outage in Kentucky? Oh, yeah. For weeks.
Starting point is 02:26:12 Yeah. If you didn't have cash, you were in real trouble. Okay, so there are multiple things that can compromise because what we're talking about doing is not allowing digital systems to get control. Yes. And that's why we always say to people, the first thing you can do is to roll back digital systems. Stop being so dependent on digital systems. You want to have analog alternatives and you want to be resilient in the face of real hiccups with digital systems, whether it's a power outage, whether it's government sanctions, whether it's central bank intervention, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. But, you know, build that resiliency into your life.
Starting point is 02:26:49 There are many ways you can do it. So the first thing we talk about is, you know, is using cash and starting to engage with local businesses, particularly your farmers and your farmer markets, fresh food, because the most important thing you need to do in this environment is you need a good strong clear brain and healthy body and that starts with good healthy fresh food and as we know there's terrible deterioration in the quality of the food so you know line up your food locally the second thing you can do is bring transparency we have a wonderful uh post we link to it from that memo called I Want to Stop CBDCs.
Starting point is 02:27:28 What can I do? And it lists 11 things you can do. But one of the things you can do is tell your family and friends. So we have these 11 or we have a link to these CBDC shorts. And they're one minute. You know, the first three are one minute each. And the fourth one is two and a half minutes. Really short. And in those three one minute videos, and the fourth one is two and a half minutes, really short.
Starting point is 02:27:45 And in those three one-minute videos, they will scare you to death. And I defy anybody to think they don't need to take action once they see those. So you don't need to read a lot of books or watch a lot of long videos. In three one-minute videos, we can communicate to you why you've got to do something about this. That's great. Another thing people can do that is exceptionally important is talk to your financial service providers. Talk to your CPA. Talk to your attorney.
Starting point is 02:28:17 Talk to your bank. Talk to all these people and get them realizing that they've got to push back. If the state, if the state banking associations start to push back and protect people from transaction control, you know, and compromise of their financial transaction freedom, they can have a huge impact. And they should do that because if you look at what the central bankers are up to, they intend to consolidate the banking system. They're rolling out, the Fed is rolling out the fast payment system. We saw what they did to a group of banks last week. They're going to consolidate the banking system, which is going to be terrible for the small business economy and terrible bottom up for the health of the economy and family wealth. So get, you know, get your banks, get your
Starting point is 02:28:59 investment advisors, get your CPAs, get your lawyers, get all your financial professionals lined up and educated, you know, bring transparency and get them on board. The next thing you need to do is there are, you know, there are 10 plus states in this country that have legislative agendas that are filing and knocking through bills that are going to protect the financial transaction freedom of the people in those states. You know, you and I are in Tennessee, and Tennessee is absolutely leading the way. It's one of those states, and they're working on, you know, sovereign payment systems or banks. They're working on bullion
Starting point is 02:29:39 depositories in a way for citizens to store their gold and silver but transact their gold and silver within the state in a way that protects absolutely protects financial transaction freedom and voting gold and silver to be legal tender so we can't get locked into a cbdc system you know where we don't have legal tender unless we use um cbdcs um they're they've already taken, in many states in Tennessee, the sales tax off. Part of that legal tender bill is to make sure gold and silver are protected from capital gains tax. They're doing moves to protect and build analog payment systems. So again, that you can have your digital systems shut down or controlled from out of state um they are now bringing um uh nullification laws i'm sure you've talked about that changing the definition of money so it can't be um you know cbdc's can't be included in uh in the definition of money um
Starting point is 02:30:40 nullification bills i mentioned nullification already nullification bills. I mentioned nullification already. Nullification bills to make sure that constitutional, any law that's unconstitutional under both the federal constitution or the state constitution is included. And then... Yeah, let me interject there. Last time I talked to Senator Nicely, we were talking about this pistol brace thing, and he goes, oh, we've already got it taken care of. You know, we passed this nullification thing saying that if the federal law conflicts with uh the tennessee law and he said and then we passed a um they can't do it they can't enforce it and he said and then we passed a law to make pistol braces legal so
Starting point is 02:31:16 they're on top of it they really really are on top of it and they are talking about educating uh the the banks and you know your cpa and anybody that you deal with financially and and it's a really last time i talked to him he was um saying it was difficult to get this the local banks to understand that a state bank was going to help them like it did in in north dakota where they have a lot more uh local banks than any other state and they have worked to help them and he goes but they you talk about a state bank and they think it's some kind of competition so he came up with the idea of calling it a tennessee reserve system and he said then they understand and he's really brilliant at
Starting point is 02:31:55 that isn't he yeah he i think senator nicely you know our our our team at saleri our number one goal this year is to support financial transaction freedom because we want to be free. Yeah. And if we don't get financial transaction freedom, we won't be free. And for us to be free, we need everybody to be free. politicians who can understand and move this kind of you know build this infrastructure you know one bill at a time because it's going to take many many bills and quite an education yeah and i think senator nicely is the most effective politician i have ever known or dealt with washington uh state politicians you know global here and here i've never met a more effective politician in my life.
Starting point is 02:32:46 Oh, I agree. I absolutely agree. Yeah. And so, you know, we're talking about this. You've got to see this panel on Rogerville because he also happens to be one of the funniest people alive. Yeah, he's got a great sense of humor. At one point he was talking about his, you know, I said to him, Senator Nicely, you know, I hold you personally responsible for the traffic problems in Tennessee, because for
Starting point is 02:33:05 the last 10 to 12 years, you keep lowering taxes. And, and he said, yeah, my wife says, you know, he's married to a Texan. He says, my wife says, if we lower taxes anymore, he said, everybody's going to move in here. And it's my fault that we have all these Yankees and, and, and Californians moved in. But I tell my wife, this is, you got to watch it. It's so funny moved in. But I tell my wife, you've got to watch it, it's so funny. I tell my wife, he said, you know, I don't mind the Yankees moving in because one thing we know about Yankees, they will fight. And we learned that the hard way. He really does know his history.
Starting point is 02:33:40 That's the other thing that's very interesting about Serena Nicely. But, you know, you were talking about the pushbacks. And one of the things that you mentioned when you were talking about pushbacks was, and you touched on it just now, the definition of money in UCCs. And you mentioned that South Carolina had done that. I know that DeSantis did it in Florida. in florida and so how many have changed the definition of money to say it's not going to be cbdc but it's going to be but we are going to allow this and that as a definition yeah i don't know how many i know florida's done it i know south carolina has done it um we have a team that's trying to collect and identify who who has done all you know in 15 different legislative
Starting point is 02:34:21 categories who has done what in terms of a state bank, a sovereign bullion depository, whatever. So as we do that, we find more states. I will say this. One of the things I would like to have more capacity in is understanding how to protect states through the UCC, because a lot of the monkey business happens through the UCC, the Uniform Commercial Code. So if there are UCC attorneys out there who are willing to help, please, you know, this is a call for help. Because the UCC is, you know, it's state by state, but it's highly complicated, as you know, David. And I think, you know, a lot of the games are happening inside the UCC.
Starting point is 02:35:05 Well, I remember when I first heard about that in conjunction with the CBDC, it was Christine Ohm in South Dakota who said, this thing came across and we vetoed it, but be aware that there's more than 20 some odd states that have had that pushed out. And the next thing I saw was that DeSantis went the opposite direction. What they were pushing out was legislation to say that cbdc's would have to be accepted as money desantis went the other way and said they will not be accepted as money but we will accept bitcoin
Starting point is 02:35:34 and cash and all the rest of this stuff right that we currently have and so now south carolina has done that as well that's that's good news there's so many different ways that we can push back on this and again point back you know there's a lot of pushback lawsuits against uh the companies because of of damage and things like that it is a constant struggle and and it really hard to try to keep uh to get a sense of whether people are waking up i got to the point where i just thought nobody's ever going to wake up in 2020 i just a tremendous number of people are waking if you look at the pushback i'll tell you one of the greatest pushback sort of clusters is the state ags and treasurers the treasures are pushing back like crazy against esg we just had the treasurer of utah write a letter to the sec
Starting point is 02:36:18 just try and stop or delay the proposed comment rule ending on natural asset companies, which is another, you know, talk about real trouble coming anyway. But the pushback by the state AGs, you know, so Missouri versus Biden is a great example of litigation filed by Louisiana and Missouri. You know, but the state AGs and the treasurers are on the move, and they're teaming up. So if you look at the filing of the Utah treasurer at the SEC, his letter was signed by himself and 23 other treasurers. So they're teaming up groups of AGs and groups of treasurers. I already think BlackRock have had to roll back their whole ESG initiative because so many treasurers have pulled money or I think one now, I think Tennessee is sued.
Starting point is 02:37:11 I don't know if it's the treasurer. Somebody in Tennessee has sued the organization. I think it's Scrimetti, the attorney general. It could be the agent. He said it is fraudulent because you're telling people that they're making an investment, so therefore you're going to be trying to do things that, you know, exercise care, fiduciary care, the financial side. But you're completely ignoring the financial side,
Starting point is 02:37:32 and you've got your own agenda over here. Well, but there's one thing else. BlackRock is making huge fees off the state pension funds. And if you look at the hypocrisy of what Larry Fink is saying, it's extraordinary. I did a wrap-up in 2019 called, Can ESG Turn the Red Button Green? And basically what I was describing was all the hypocrisy in the system. Because they're using it to enforce central control as opposed to enforce real standards that improve, in my opinion, the governance of society.
Starting point is 02:38:06 So Larry Fink has gotten called out on his hypocrisy. That's great that it's the treasurers who are coming out and saying, we're going to move our investments away from them, putting financial pressure on them. And then you've got some attorneys general who are saying, well, this is fraudulent, and we're going to sue them because they've told people that their company is about this, but it's actually about this other thing. Well, here's the thing. At the very heart of the pushback in all these different forms, what you're seeing is people on the ground who want to be productive. You know, people want to go to work and do a good job without having to you know share bathrooms with the other sex
Starting point is 02:38:47 yeah and get into that conversation they want to go back without you know they want to be free to say something without being fired for you know offending hate crime all this stuff is destroying productivity and they've had it so so what they're saying is we you know so if i'm a treasurer i'm looking across the state and saying the guys in washington wall street and basel switzerland are using climate change as a ruse to shut down our businesses take control of our markets and steal our money yes why should i finance them doing that yes because they're not doing what they say they're doing. They're just using this to assert central control. You know, just like during the pandemic, you shut down 10 small businesses.
Starting point is 02:39:33 You leave Costco in the same shopping mall open. And, you know, on the theory that the magic virus only operates in small business, but it doesn't operate in large publicly traded stocks. And you scarf and steal the market share from the small businesses. Had nothing to do with health. It had to do with shifting significant market share out of locally owned and controlled businesses into publicly traded stocks, you know, and in a way that made Larry Fink a lot of money. Okay.
Starting point is 02:40:02 And it's, it's a scam. Yeah. Yeah. That made me so angry when that was happening because i had lived that uh with my wife and i we had a uh video store business back in the early 90s and we had a hurricane that came through and took power out for several days and we finally got it back in one area we opened up that store and then the police came by and said you got to shut your store down and i said well, Walmart is open right across the street. You know, you got to shut your business down because you're attracting people to come out and drive around.
Starting point is 02:40:31 They shouldn't be out driving around now. And it's like, well, who are you to make that decision, number one? And number two, you're telling me essentially what Trump said. You're not essential. You know, Walmart is essential, but you closed down because you're a small business. No, they want, you know, basically it's the big guys stealing market share from the little guys. That's right. It's very simple.
Starting point is 02:40:48 That's right. It's a steal. It's called a taking. Yes. Yes. Right. And it's hurting Main Street in order to help Wall Street, the big companies that are essential. And so when I saw that, I'd already lived that for just a couple of days.
Starting point is 02:41:01 And it made me so angry to see that they were going to be putting people out of business who had poured their sweat and energy and capital into this and worked it for years just to be told that they're nonessential. I still get angry when I think about that. But talk about some of the other things. But here's what happened in 2023. In 2021, people agreed to play along with that or 2020 because they thought the government had a legitimate reason once you understand that this is just a mafia trying to steal your business that's when you say oh two people can play this game so you the municipality you're going to shut
Starting point is 02:41:43 me down great i'm going to audit your books. I'm going to get all your financial disclosure and I'm going to dig into your money and I'm going to dig into the money of everybody in the city council. By the time I'm through, y'all are going to be gone. So we have a wonderful woman who works for us in Tennessee. She was in Knoxville. She tried to get the mask mandate canceled and couldn't do it. And so she went in and figured out the committee, you know, in government that was deciding this. She figured out how they were formed and she got the committee canceled. And they canceled, you know,
Starting point is 02:42:16 there was no mask mandate because the committee that was supposed to implement it was gone. That's great. And that's what really needs to happen because, and that's the thing that concerns me is that, you know, we're not in so many cases, we have seen people who are just, oh, I'm so glad that this isn't happening again. They realize it was a fraud. They don't want to play along with it, but now that it's ended, as you point out, everybody just wants to get on with their life, right? Instead of going back and rooting this out. They want to be productive.
Starting point is 02:42:40 They want to build family wealth. And that's why you have to give them ways of pushing back that they can push back in a way that helps them build family wealth so what we're saying is make yourself more resilient make yourself more successful lower your dependency every time you you pull money and market share out of the companies that are doing this you know and the support the politicians who are doing this, you make yourself more powerful, you make yourself stronger, and they get weaker. So it's like, it's like having a tapeworm. You know, what we're saying is detox the tapeworm to make yourself stronger. And anytime you can do anything that lowers your dependency on their systems, like using cash, I mean, using cash is really, you know, can save you a lot of money. I mean, we've proven again and again, if people use cash, they spend less, they're more careful,
Starting point is 02:43:30 they think through, you know, their purchase decisions, but you can also build up incredibly great relationships with your local business, you know, in the process of transacting with them. It's a much more intimate way of transacting. And you find all sorts of opportunities when that conversation gets going. So people are busy and this is an exhausting environment in many ways because of the compliance and rules. And people don't like to fight and add friction because that doesn't get them anywhere a lot of times. They see a lot of people fighting in ways that aren't effective. They don't want to be a part of that so you need to give them ways of pushing back which help to build their strength and power and wealth i go back the most important one is
Starting point is 02:44:17 they have to be healthy and that means you know if if I encourage anyone to invest time in building wealth, step one is getting the knowledge you need to take responsibility for your own health and making sure you're getting clean water and nutritious food and you are not get poisoned. You know, because we are in the middle, particularly in America, of a great poisoning. Oh, yeah. And people are getting sick from being poisoned, and they need to understand what the process is and how to protect themselves and their family. And if people are really good at protecting themselves from the great poison, David, they have 10 times more energy. That's right.
Starting point is 02:44:59 So step number one is get yourself off the poison treadmill. And when you look at it, it's going to cost you more to get this other food, right? But not if you compare that to what's going to happen if you get sick and you've got to engage with the health care system. That just blows away. You can buy organic food all day forever before you have your first hospital bill. They're going to really fleece you. Talk about destroying you financially. That's what happens with the hospital system.
Starting point is 02:45:26 So if you can stay out of that and clean food, you're way ahead of the game, even financially, let alone in terms of enjoying the health. Absolutely. Our annual wrap-up last year was called Pharma Food, and it was on synthetic food and lab-grown meat. And it was the hardest thing I've ever had to read. We hired this wonderful Dutch journalist, Elsevon Hamlin, to write it, and she did an incredible job. And when she came back with it, it's the first time in my life I couldn't read a draft the whole way through because it's so evil. If you see the hundreds of billions of dollars they're throwing at making 30 hamburgers that are you know created with 3d printing is just it's so horrible you can't imagine that they want anybody to eat this
Starting point is 02:46:12 you know and nobody's going to eat it without financial transaction control because they're going to mandate the only food you're allowed to buy are sort of bugs and synthetic meat yeah so so anyway we published it and i thought David, it would be the least popular wrap-up that we ever published, because it's so horrible and gruesome. We published it, and it's brilliant. It really warrants you about what these guys are up to, and why you can't allow financial transaction to control happen, because this is the food they're going to try and feed you. And anyway, we published it and it was hugely popular and successful because all the fresh food people used it to market. Yeah. You know, all the people in the farmer's market are like, you know, here's what they're
Starting point is 02:46:56 going to do if you don't support us. And I had one subscriber write in this one, you know, we get these great emails and they said, you know, I have tried and tried and tried to get my husband to buy from the local farmers and farmers market and really develop our fresh food supply locally. And he says it's too hard work and it's too much money. I gave him pharma food. He said, I am all in. Well, you know, it's great that you got that. It was really a shame. After we moved here, we finally found a local farm that was doing clean local food and everything.
Starting point is 02:47:33 And, you know, we could get raw milk as a membership club and things like that. Oh, wonderful. And we only did that for a couple of months. And then they said, we just got to close. We can't keep it going. There's not enough demand. And that's the key thing. It really, it was so sad. So now we're looking again you know but it is uh it's so sad to see how
Starting point is 02:47:48 difficult it is for them to maintain that and um but how important i don't know if edible communities has a magazine for your area look at the edible communities it's a franchise of local food magazines all over the country and i thought i knew every fresh food farmer in my area until i got the edible communities magazine for memphis and i found so many great sources after i got it so i would check that out and of course check out the western price club where you are because they're western price chapters all over the world and um and they have the greatest networks into knowing what the great food is in your area and they're the ones who've led the campaign on raw milk and raw milk is one of the
Starting point is 02:48:31 great success stories because we're now up to 46 states you know where there is a pathway to buying raw milk and that is extraordinary and it's been the rest and price guys who really did that oh that's excellent yeah and of course the other part of this and thomas massey has been involved in this and i've reported he is my hero yeah i've talked about massey was hero of the week three times on this lawyer report in 2023 yeah he's by far and away the best congressman that's out there absolutely hands down but he's focused on this whole thing about the fact and a particular amish farmer as a matter of fact there's an update uh that just happened this guy that's been harassed by the usda because he wants to butcher the the meat there on the farm and do it cleanly i'm sure i can't remember
Starting point is 02:49:15 the guy's name but i'm sure you you know the case yeah and they've come back and hit him again because it's very important for them that you've got to go to their centrally controlled meat processing facilities. Waterhouses. Yeah, exactly. Right. And it's much safer. A good local operation on the farm is much safer. So, you know, so Massey has the, what's the name of his, the Primact.
Starting point is 02:49:37 Yes. So we've been supporting for several years trying to get the Primact passed. And, you know, it's funny. One of the things I do, you know, it's funny. One of the things I do, uh, you know, it started with Ron Paul, but then it went to Massey. Whenever I'm depressed, you know, I'm just thinking, Oh God, it's, you know, I'm fighting with, I call the force to nothing. I'm fighting with the nothing. You know, I have to do something to make myself feel good. And I'll send us a donation to Massey. It's like, okay, I'll put fuel in the leader's pocket and I'll feel better.
Starting point is 02:50:08 He's a good guy. He's a good guy. And he stands like Ron Paul. He stands alone if he has to. Yeah, what is it in the water in Kentucky that we get? Because Ron Paul's in Kentucky, Massey's in Kentucky. Yeah, he definitely stood up. And he stood up against that trillions of dollars that
Starting point is 02:50:25 trump wanted to put in trump wanted to get him out but he didn't get him out so that's good i think the people my favorite if you go to salarian do a uh search for massey you'll pull this up one of the heroes of the week was massey absolutely slaughtering that idiot from texas uh uh you know not many idiots come from texas but this one is the Secretary of Transportation on electric cars because, man, he's an MIT engineer. Yes. And he knows the whole, you know, electric cars are mathematically, you know, the math of the energy, the math of the environment, the math of the economics, they're absolutely insane. They make no sense whatsoever. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:51:08 It only makes sense in the scientific term if your degree is in political science. And that's what he also did to John Kerr. If you want total control, so if you want to be able to turn off people's cars, so if I lock you down, you can't go more than five miles from your home, your car will turn off and it won't work more than five miles from your home. I know exactly what, it's about digital concentration camps. Yes. Right? That's true. Yeah, he had John Kerry on.
Starting point is 02:51:35 And he was debating John Kerry and he pointed out, he says, so you got a science degree? Well, he goes, political science, right? That's what it was. John Kerry's got a political science degree. Because there isn't any science between these, I call them MacGuffins, which is what Hitchcock called them. It doesn't really matter what it is. It could be the Maltese Falcon or it could be something else.
Starting point is 02:51:55 But it's whatever motivates the people to do this. So it could be the virus or it could be the climate. But they've always got the same solution. You've got to get an ID and you've got to put them in charge and beg them permission for everything. But it doesn't matter what the MacGuffin is. It's interchangeable. Just whatever you use to motivate the people. It seems like it always comes back.
Starting point is 02:52:13 So when I became assistant secretary of housing, the secretary wanted to do a big housing bill. You know, he wanted a big accomplishment. He wanted a big housing bill. So the goal was how do we get the democrats on board for and we got jim rouse around fannie mae i'm sorry jim rouse around the enterprise foundation and david maxwell around fannie mae they had done a big commission on housing that proposed a lot of decentralization they were both big democrats so we got david and jim to come in wonderful men andemp, the secretary is
Starting point is 02:52:46 trying to persuade him into a new housing bill. And a lot of what Kemp was proposing was more centralization. And, and David and Jim were, you know, they're wonderful people, very big hearts. And they, and they were saying, well well you know jack you're a republican republicans believe in decentralization and we propose a lot of decentralization and you know so we think you should you know you would like what we're proposing and uh and there was he had these two little assistants from the heritage foundation who were truly frightening and one of them said so jack is proposing more centralization the democrats are proposing decentralization which is supposed to be the opposite of their their ideologies so they said you know don't don't you want to decentralize
Starting point is 02:53:36 why would you want to centralize and one of the special assistants bursted out he says yeah but we're here now that's it that's it we're here now yeah it's like that's why they never changed bring the blood to the empire headquarters bring the blood to the empire more extraction more extraction yeah that's why i had to leave washington that's why i moved to tennessee i was like you know you can't decentralize from washington that's right that's right right you've got to nullify it. You've got to have some things at the local level. So you've talked about some of these things.
Starting point is 02:54:09 Sovereign state bank. I'm looking at your list here. Actions that can be taken to secure financial freedom. And so you start out with state and local government. But then you talk about having some local organizations to try to help this. Maybe because you can't get too much done on your own. you've got so you got three different sections they're state and local you got what you can do with small associations and then things that you can do as an individual it's a great right and what you can do as an investor i do want to mention the second memo
Starting point is 02:54:36 in the document in the financial the future financial freedom wrap-up is our sovereign state bank memo by richard wer Outstanding and explains to you why you do not want to let the central bankers consolidate the small banks. You do not want that to happen. And the pandemic was, you know, was hard on the small banks and we want a strong small banking. And it explains why the health of the economy and the small business economy in Main Street depend on lots of healthy small banks. And so one of the most important things, and this is what Frank understands, and I don't think that the banking associations understand yet. They don't understand what a threat CBDC and digital ID and fast payment systems are.
Starting point is 02:55:20 And, you know, I want to stress again, what we're trying to get is financial transaction freedom. CBDCs is not the only problem. Fast payment systems and what they can do with credit cards and banking accounts without CBDCs, you know, that kind of control is a real problem. It's a real problem now. So as we saw with the Tennessee truckers. So anyway, so this memo on sovereign state banks is very, very good and important. And it helps you understand why you want the state to be able to transact without the feds or the central banks being able to shut them down. And to afford that protection to the local banks and the local citizens.
Starting point is 02:55:59 You want financial liquidity that the feds can't kill. That's right. That's right. Right. And right now we have, as you know, you're well aware, we look at the situation and how the deficit has exploded. I talked about that earlier.
Starting point is 02:56:12 You know, we were at only about $10 trillion about 15 years ago. Now it's exploded up to $34 trillion, but I'm sure that's just the tip of the iceberg. As I point out, there's all these other things in terms of obligations that the federal government has. And so there's this massive system that is really not sustainable and corrupt. And so what happens as we start to see, it's also another thing that's happened is the deficit is going up. And as we're using the
Starting point is 02:56:39 dollar as a weapon, fewer and fewer people are using abroad or getting off of the dollar as a weapon, fewer and fewer people are using abroad or getting off of the dollars reserve currency. What are going to be the implications if that continues and accelerates? What's going to be the implications? Higher prices, higher prices, higher prices. So as the squeeze comes on, the value, you know, basically the reason everybody's been going along with the crime is that, you know, the criminals have been sharing, you know, crumbs with us. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:57:09 So if you talk to a state legislator, why can't we establish, you know, so Tennessee's considering rejecting federal education aid. You know, there's an addiction to the money. That's right. So the central banks print money and use that money to buy us even though that drives up inflation so at the end of the day we don't end up better off but you know we have this addiction to getting federal money so we're on the dole and and and as we stay on the dole our economies get weaker and weaker and weaker you know and we become more and more dependent on that dole. So there is a
Starting point is 02:57:46 financial addiction going on to central bank printed money. And that is going to, the question is, when is the pain great enough that we're willing to walk away from that money? Now, as they share less and less, you know, crumbs and prices go up and up from this sort of inflation game, you know, when are people going to realize we are better off creating the conditions of sovereignty, rejecting that money? And what I will tell you, David, is, you know, in the 90s at Hamilton Securities, I did a lot of simulation of what we could do if we took government money and we re-engineered it to optimize economic health as opposed to
Starting point is 02:58:27 central control yeah that's right and if you know it's going to be a rough transition because we've delayed it for so long but if we go through that transition we can build a much more moral and productive society oh i agree i agree yeah yeah that's always been the case and it's been difficult i've had this frustrating thing. I feel like I'm banging my head against the wall when I talk to people about what happened in 2020. They say, well, Trump didn't do it. And I said, no, you understand it's the money, right? That's how they get around the 10th Amendment.
Starting point is 02:58:56 They bribe people. They get you addicted to the money. And then they pull it back and say, well, now I'm going to blackmail you. If you look at what happened with Trump, you know, he's out there. His administration, they're giving a 20 bonus if you identify somebody's covet they're giving you a bonus uh to diagnose them at thirteen thousand dollars thirty nine thousand dollars you put them on ventilator twenty percent on everything that you do and then when biden comes in and now that they've gotten used to this money he says well if you don't get everybody in the hospital
Starting point is 02:59:21 vaccinated i'm going to not give you any medicare or medicaid i'm going to shut everything off that's the way it always works going back into the night but i'm going to be tough on trump because he swung 10 billion dollars of taxpayers money into a military program that completely bypassed all the safety things you know that are implicit in health care law to poison millions of Americans. That's right. That's right. Yeah, he's the poisoner-in-chief, absolutely no doubt about it. Exactly. And it was a military operation.
Starting point is 02:59:51 It was a military operation, and he put $10 billion behind it, and he appointed to run it a man who was a brain-machine interface expert from GlaxoSmithKline. Yeah. And they've been practicing this since two months before 9-11. They've had their annual germ game thing, and it's coming from DARPA, so of course they're going to have the warp speed thing be a military thing.
Starting point is 03:00:14 It's really difficult to get people to understand that. And sometimes I explain, when we were doing homeschooling of our kids who are now grown, I know that there were a lot of people in the homeschool community that wanted to say, well's have um uh let's let's fight to get our kids in into the um sports programs and band programs and things like that and i said you know there's going to be strings attached to all that money and all those benefits that you're fighting for they're
Starting point is 03:00:39 going to use that to blackmail you and that's exactly what they do they get around the 10th amendment by offering people money getting them addicted to the money, and then say, okay, now put the boys in the girls' bathroom, or we're going to take the money away. It always works out that way. Really. So one of my favorite quotes is from Franklin Sanders, who's that wonderful, I don't know if you've had Franklin on these wonderful precious metals dealer and pastor in Middle
Starting point is 03:01:00 Tennessee. He always says, all government money comes with a sock in the jaw. That's a good way to put it. Well, tell us a little bit about the tour because we're about out of time. It's going to be, you're going to have, so I'm coming down to Tennessee.
Starting point is 03:01:16 I should be there by the 23rd. And then I'm heading over to middle Tennessee. I got a lot of meetings in Nashville and, and some of the surrounding States, I'm going to drop down to Mississippi and Alabama and a lot of the states around Tennessee are talking about doing the same things and talking about how they network together. Yes, that's a key thing too. Having a network of states, that's one of the things
Starting point is 03:01:39 Senator Nicely's talked about. You've got to get several states together. A network of states is, you know, I don't want to call it the Confederacy. Well, technically it would be i guess but i think now you're talking about something that's much more bottom up where the states cooperate and coordinate you know deal by deal transactions so you so you have uh you know so you so you have relationships where you're helping each other do a better job, go faster. And given the different strengths of the different states, there's so much that can be done to cooperate between those states that will really help advantage each other. That's right. So I think it's pretty exciting. And if you look at the, you know, we have an extraordinary number of very capable and talented state legislators who have been, you know, they haven't gone up to the federal level. They haven't become senators or congressmen because they're too clean.
Starting point is 03:02:38 Yeah, yeah, exactly. They're too clean. But they're very, very competent, and they're very capable. And it's taken a while for them to realize, oh, I'm more competent to engineer this than all these hotshots. They've got a control file. They're on a leash. I can do this. I keep telling everybody that's what's important is the state and local races. It's far more important. You have far more leverage than you do with with washington so i'm telling you to spend almost
Starting point is 03:03:10 all your time and money this year on your state and local races that's right you know don't worry about the federal election because this will be decided and if you're in a state that where there's not going to be financial transaction freedom and you can move you know you may want to get your you know and i don't want to say that because the traffic problem in tennessee is really bad think about what happened in 2020 and that's where you can see that it where the rubber meets the road is at the local level so your schedule is going to be there as to i'm coming at the end of january and i'll be over i'll be in hickory valley for the first week or two and then i'll move over to
Starting point is 03:03:50 shelbyville and be going up spending a lot of time in nashville um and then i'll i'll be networking around the state for lots of meetings and then head up to new england for the uh the end of february i'll be there for a week and then come back to Tennessee. But I'll also be going, we'll be going around the country and we'll, at some point, we'll put up our schedule by the end of the month so people will know where we're going. We're really responding to clusters of people, particularly Salary Report subscribers who want to meet up. And it's great because when, you know, one of the things that happens, and this is one of the reasons I want to do this, is we have these wonderful subscribers, and they're in a place, and they say,
Starting point is 03:04:31 there are no like-minded people around, and I'll look at our database, and I'll say, look, there are a ton of like-minded people around, because they're all subscribing to this leader report, so we'll go there and meet up, and then everybody meets. And it's so amazing to watch it, David, because literally you can be in some of these meetings and within, within an hour, they look like they've known each other for 20 years. It's so fabulous. No, it's so fabulous.
Starting point is 03:04:56 So anyway, so we're going to try and do a lot of meetups and make sure people can find each other, you know, sort of in their local areas. Good. So people check the, uh, check salari.com and they will see your, um, uh, your schedule as, as it gets finalized, cause you're still building that.
Starting point is 03:05:12 So that's great. Looking forward to seeing you at one of these and, uh, I'll be checking the site to see, uh, where that's going to be coming. Thank you so much for joining us. Catherine Austin Fitz. Thank you, David. I just love what you do. I've always loved what you do
