As the clock strikes 13, it's Wednesday, the 5th of October, Year of Our Lord 2022, Day 935 of the emergency. And so today we're going to talk about this war as it continues to unfold. It is far from over. We still have a lot of people who are involved in trying to get compensation or who are still trying to fight being fired or kicked out of the military. And we just had a case go before the Supreme Court and not going very well. It seems the Supreme Court is always eager to side with the idea of a dictatorial presidency.

We're going to take a look at that as well as what's happened with Elon Musk and Twitter and what's going on with Herschel Walker with Trump. We've got a lot of individual stuff that is happening here. We're going to begin with headline news. Stay with us. We will be right back as we talk about North Korea and their missile program. We'll be right back. Stay with us.

Well, we had North Korea do what North Korea does, which is, you know, shooting, recklessly shooting missiles. This time they shot it over Japan. It's not the first time they've done that. They did this back in 2017 and prior to that, but they hadn't done it for five years since 2017. And so it caused a great deal of concern and reaction from both Japan, especially from the U.S. North Korea test fired a ballistic missile farther than ever before on Tuesday.

Remember, they are threatening to try to get it to the U.S. Sending it soaring over Japan for the first time in five years, promoting a warning for residents there to take cover. The U.S. asked the U.N. Security Council to meet on North Korea today, but the diplomat said that China and Russia are opposed to a public discussion by the 15-member body. Why would that be? It's the first time that North Korea missile followed a trajectory over Japan since 2017.

In response, U.S US and South Korean war planes practiced bombing a target on the yellow sea. And fighter jets from the U S and Japan also carried out joint drills over the sea of Japan, as this is pointed out by, um, Yahoo news, uh, it was muscle flexing. Yeah. Where, and I guess that, you know, now that, um, maybe they feel emboldened since we had Lala Harris go there and declare that North Korea is our ally. Well, I mean, if they're our ally, there's no problem with that, right? I loved what was put up, a clip that somebody put up, said the new reboot of the TV series veep looks really really good and it looks

like this my fellow americans words have many meanings and sometimes instead of conveying our meaning they can suggest other meanings when we talk about the children of the community they are the children of the community well we are the united states of america Well we are the United States of America because we are united and we are states. I'm talking about the significance of the passage of time right the significance of the passage of time so when you think about it there is great significance to the passage of time. Whatever we have in store cannot be known. The past was once the future. The future is, I should say, unknown.

We've got to take this stuff seriously, as seriously as you are, because you have been forced to have to take it seriously. Obesity is a serious disease, and it needs to be taken seriously. You need to get to go and need to be able to get where you need to go to do the work and get home. I hope that clarifies the issue, and this can be the last word on those words. Certain issues are just settled. Clearly, we're not. No, that's right. And that's why I do believe that we are living, sadly, in real unsettled times.

Yeah, I guess that that's from The Daily Show. And I guess that now that Trevor Noah is getting fired, he feels it's safe to actually do comedy that is bipartisan and not just supporting the Democrats. But yeah, who knew that? I guess Biden was watching that show. I never watched Veep, but I guess he was. And I guess he figured that she fit the role perfectly. And I think she does. In California, where we have some more

airheads and windbags, diesel prices are soaring. But you know, in Florida, where Hurricane Ian has gone through, they're still stable. Isn't that amazing? I mean, look at the devastation that has happened with Hurricane Ian. And yet, it hasn't caused the price of diesel to go up in Florida. It's almost like when you have a market-driven situation instead of a top-down Marxist-driven situation, that it doesn't create issues like that. As I've said before, one of my sons did a video that was comparing and contrasting what happened to residents on the North Carolina coast when FEMA got involved after a hurricane.

How they pushed and shoved everybody around, how they wouldn't let people do anything with their property. It was just horrific what happened with it. And contrasting that to a community that had certainly as devastating an impact from a storm, but it was a tornado. So it's localized to one town that was not too far from us. And so FEMA did not get involved with that, but the devastation was just as bad as it was for anybody far from us. And so FEMA did not get involved with that. But the devastation was just as bad as it was for anybody on the coast. It just wasn't as broadly based. And the response was that the local police, the sheriff's department went out and kept people away from downed lines. And that was the only involvement by the government. The rest of it was done privately. And so you had a lot of businesses donated food and other things, other supplies. They took them to church parking lots, and the people of the church helped to just hand these things out for

free to people. And that was it. That was the way it was handled. But when you get a big bureaucracy in there, things get messed up. But, you know, in Florida, the diesel price is the same as it was a week ago in those areas, in Fort Myers and other places, even though they have a lot of gas stations that have been taken offline, either with damage or with, I think it was with damage because I think power has been restored, but not so in California because Hurricane Gavin is a lot more destructive economically than Hurricane Ian. It's just that his destruction doesn't happen as quickly. It takes a while for it to roll out, but it's just kind of a slow-moving destruction from a giant windbag.

That's what you're seeing in California. The physical landscape along the Florida coast may have been permanently altered, but one thing that hasn't changed is the ability to get diesel fuel if a truck heads into the region to provide regular freight service or aid with emergency assistance. Ned Bowman, the executive director of the Florida Petroleum Marketers Association, answered a succinct no when asked if he saw any difficulties for truckers and others obtaining diesel supplies in the region.

He said, you do get some problems at first because everybody sucks it up to get refilled as fast as you can. Everybody runs to the pump. But he said there are some retail outlets that were damaged, maybe closed for a while, he said, noting specifically that Racetrack, a big retailer in Florida, is up and running, however. While there remain more than a third of Fort Myers stations out of fuel, the number there and in other areas is dropping.

There has been no upward price movement at the retail level in the affected areas, at least according to the spreadsheet from the trade association that's there. They said that in Ocala and Haines City, they were carrying diesel at $4.99 a gallon. Fort Myers was at $4.65 a gallon, all unchanged in the last six days. That sort of stability is not seen in California. There has been significant attention recently on record high gasoline prices in California, driving the spread between the national average retail price published by the EIA, the Energy Information Administration,

on average gasoline prices. And I talked about this earlier. This story, by the way, is from Freight Waves, which is a trade publication of the trucking industry. At LiveScoreBet, we love Cheltenham just as much as we love football. The excitement, the roar, and the chance to reward you. of the trucking industry. racing cheltenham with live score bet this is total betting sign up by 2 p.m 14th of march bet within 48 hours of race main market excluding specials and place bets terms apply bet responsibly 18 plus gambling care.ee that's why they're talking so much about diesel but look diesel really undergirds the cost of virtually everything because we have such long drawn out supply lines you know we have every stage of manufacturing as

well as getting it to the market involves trucking and so when you raise the price of diesel it's essentially like raising a value-added tax and like they have in Europe or at where every time it trades anything, goods or services change hands, there is a tax involved. And that's basically what happens if you go up on the price of diesel. And so as I said earlier this week, look at the spread between California and the rest of the country. It's amazing.

It's even amazing if you look at the difference between California and other high tax states. Oregon is number two. And there's a big spread even between California and number two Oregon in terms of gasoline prices. And why is that? Well, as I pointed out, it's because they have demanded a special blend of gasoline and diesel that only California uses. And so they approach life as if they're living in a Starbucks. And you pay for that. Starbucks is expensive, and so is diesel fuel in California. So the record high prices there, well, they're not record high, the spread is record.

Because there's been so much dumping out of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, Biden is using it like a campaign device. That's really the way to look at this. It's campaign spending. Dumping fuel on the market. But that has helped to move everything down. But the spread has never been higher between California and the rest of the country. So the spread is right now the average price is $3.78 across the country. But in California, it's $6.21.

Now that's a spread of $2.43. A year ago, the spread between California and the rest of the country was a dollar five. Again, uh, their special blends that they mandate as well as their higher taxes. So, um,

it's not a record price, but it is a record spread between, uh, California and the rest of the country. But what is going to a record price is the shipping rates for LNG, uh, liquid natural gas, liquefied natural gas. Now, why is that happening? Well, that's happening because of the pipeline situation as a

Blinken was bragging about what a wonderful opportunity this is. just an amazing coincidence that now we have the only supply of natural gas in liquefied form, and we're going to deliver it to Europe via freighter instead of by pipeline. And so the prices for shipping rates of LNG, as I say, are shooting for the stars. $500,000 per day is what the ships are getting because there's no gas being put in over the pipelines. And again, when you look at the pipelines, and that was the first thing, first thing that Biden did. Nobody has mentioned that in terms of trying to figure out who done it. Well, you might want to start with a guy who bragged that we're going to stop that pipeline.

And then he, we've played all those clips and what he said and what Victoria Newell said, but take a look at what he did. He was the first thing he did when he became president. Very first thing was to shut down a pipeline of oil from Canada into the U.S. Now, that oil is still going to be sold. It'll be sold and transported either by rail or to be sold to China by and it'll be shipped there, which is a lot more inefficient. It's a lot more prone to accidents and other things like that. But that's what's

going to happen with it. But, you know, this is a guy who hates pipelines. Pipelines are more energy efficient. They're less prone to any kind of leakage or problem than any other way of transporting it, unless you blow them up. You know, as mentioned yesterday, those Nord Stream pipeline, heavy metal encased in concrete, 100 meters down or more in the water, which is another indication of whodunit. Anyway, liquefied natural gas shipping rates could top a million dollars per day by the fourth quarter when they get really desperate, when it starts getting really cold. So who benefits from all this stuff? So maybe it's the shipping companies that blew up the Nord Stream pipeline, or maybe it's just the U.S. government since Lincoln was bragging about that. Paying a million dollars a day may sound crazy,

but when it comes down to the profit a shipper can make on a cargo, if a shipper can make $200 million in profit moving a single shipload of LNG, it will pay six figures a day in freight. So the rates are already in record territory, not just for LNG shipping, but for any commercial shipping sector ever. And these rates are expected to keep climbing for the ships. LNG carriers are shooting for the stars, they said. According to brokers, owners can now achieve three-way economics, which means that they are compensated not just for the regular round voyage, but also for positioning voyages. As a result, earnings on round-trip basis might be about $500,000 per day already. Rates have gone into the $300,000 range per day on occasions in

the past two winters. So this is significantly higher. I mean, you're talking about more than 50% of the record that they'd had before. Thanks to whoever blew up the Nord Stream pipelines. Created this massive situation with the sanctions. It began with the sanctions. They blew it up with the sanctions, and now they literally blew up the pipelines. The current market situation is unprecedented. Gas supplier Russia is at war. It's cut off all supplies to Germany.

Somebody just sabotaged the two pipelines in the Baltic. Who knew? And who could that be? No idea whatsoever. Well, this was sent to me by a listener, Jeremy. I appreciate the hat tip. This is another case of civil asset forfeiture. This particular one was atypical. Usually what we've seen in terms of confiscated cars, when we look at it in Chicago, usually they are coming in and going for poor people and say, yeah, you know, I think I smell some marijuana or something like that on the car.

And they just confiscate the cars. It's typically very low-value cars because they have to pay $900 to sue. You don't have to be guilty. They don't even accuse you of a crime. They just take your stuff. And if you want to get it back, you have to sue them and prove that you're innocent. You're guilty until proven innocent by a lawsuit. And it costs $ dollars just to start

the process so guess what the average price of the car is that they grab about nine hundred dollars and uh this is very different this is an eighty thousand dollar car and it was seized after a high-speed chase so it got the police so angry, they just stole the car. We're not doing any due process. It was a 2020 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye. And I had to look at this. I thought, did they send that to me because that's Alex? He's got a whole stable of these Dodge Hellcats.

Every time they rev a little bit, you know, they tweak it a little bit. Well, now this is the new Red Eye, and it's got, you know, five more horsepower. Oh, I've got to have one of those, you know. He goes out and he pays cash for it. It's just unbelievable. But, no, this was not one of Alex's. This was seized in Houston and a high speed chase. Uh, maybe he was over there.

I don't know. Uh, but it is a civil asset forfeiture and, um, uh, it was taken by the Texas, uh, department of, uh, public transportation. Now they, um, uh, they said that, uh, this car was going up to 160 miles per hour. So, you know, there would be some significant penalties for that. But I don't know. I would think that if you didn't have civil asset forfeiture, I would think that taking an $80,000 car would still qualify as excessive fines.

Oh, but it's not a fine. You know, it's a forfeiture, you know. And you don't get due process because this isn't a law. This is a regulatory rule and on and on. We know what the lies are that they use all the time. In terms of the robot trucks that are rolling out, and they're getting very serious about this, they're about to roll these things out.

Interestingly enough, the people who are making the 18-wheelers are not putting all their eggs, for sure, not putting all their eggs in the battery basket. They are looking at fuel cells, and as I mentioned briefly, I think a couple of weeks ago, I read the article, I think I talked about it on air. There's a company that has a way to generate electricity that uses a wide variety of fuels. I mean, it's almost like Mr. Fusion from Back to the Future

just dropped, you know, pretty much anything in there. At LiveScore Bet, we love Cheltenham just as much as we love football. The excitement excitement the roar and the chance to reward you that's why every day of the festival we're giving new members

Bet responsibly. 18plusgamblingcare.ie. And it will generate electricity. So there's been a merger from these companies to have generating capability. And I think it has to be that way. When you look at the amount of time that it takes to charge these things,

even if they have super mega chargers that they talk about, and how draining it is for these EV batteries when you're towing under load. Just remember the thing I played last week. The guy went out and bought the new Ford electric pickup truck. And he said, this is ridiculous. I had this thing charged for like 200 miles, and I had like a 120-mile trip or something like that, but it was exhausted after just one leg of his trip.

He was carrying an empty aluminum trailer, uh, to pick up a car, then bringing it back. And then it was going to make another trip to get another car that he had bought and bring it back. Uh, but it just sucked it right down. Uh, the mileage was less than a third of what it would have normally been when it was towing. So when you look at all of that, you look at the massive amount of, um, uh, energy that is required to pull 80,000 pounds. And you look at how long it takes to charge it.

And look at the fact that this seems to be a worst case scenario for the electric cars, partly because I think he nailed it, uh of the gearing right well what is one of the key characteristics of an 18 wheeler as well it's got so many different gears i don't even know what the upper limit number is but i know that's a ton of them And you do that so that you can, it gives you more ability to tow. And he says, I think that's why towing doesn't work with these electric vehicles. Theoretically, because they don't have a transmission, they could pull 10,000 pounds, but you can't pull it very far. That's the problem with this stuff.

So the other aspect of this, though, is a self-driving aspect of it. Now, this is something that really concerns me because really, whatever, they've got self-driving diesel trucks that they are getting very close to deploying. They have cleared the way in Texas for them to experiment with these trucks on the road because they're not finished. They're not approved. It's just like everything else. If you've got enough money,

you don't have to pass any safety hurdles. If you own the regulatory agency, you don't have to worry about any of that stuff. And thank you, Angus. I appreciate the Angus Mustang. Thank you very much for the tip. He says, thank you for being the voice of truth in the dystopian world we've been forced into. Well, thank you.

There is some hope, though. We're going to talk about that. Even as these people are continuing on with the vaccines, there is some hope. And the hope is really coming from the people who resist. Because there's nobody in the power structure that's going to resist this stuff. It's up to you and me. So getting back to the Great Reset Plan, they want to get rid of workers.

They want to get rid of truck drivers. They want to get rid of, as Uber said from the very beginning, the reason these Uber rides are expensive is because of that other dude in the car, and we're going to get him out of there. We're going to have him out of there. We're going to have self-driving car. And so now they're talking about what are they going to do to inspect robot trucks? Because, you know, they have inspection stations all over the place for the truckers. Why do they have that there? Well, because if you have an equipment failure with a truck, that is a big disaster.

Because it is so big and so heavy. At 80,000 pounds, it just crushes anything in its way. So you try to keep it very safe. And so you have a lot of inspection stations. But when it comes to the robot trucks, not so much. They said they're going to have to have their own special stations. Robot trucks are getting their own commercial vehicle safety alliance inspections because they're not like other trucks.

But they're more interested not in safety, but in what they say bridging the trust gap. They say they're not interested in the safety of the vaccines. They just want you to trust Fauci. They don't care. Just trust me. Just take your vaccine. And so when it comes to these autonomous 80,000-pound trucks with no driver in them

so they can save a little bit of money, they want you to just trust them. Just trust us. And we've got to bridge that trust gap. The biggest challenge is building the trust between law enforcement and the industry and helping law enforcement understand why we're being so proactive and trying to work with them and willing to submit ourselves to a fairly complex inspection. So that's what it's about. I've seen this type of thing, not even when you're talking about going with no drivers versus some drivers.

When you look at, and I did a report on this about six years ago when I was in Washington taking a taxi. I talked to the taxi driver about how he felt about the Uber companies and other things like that. And he says, you know, or he might have started talking about it. Upset, and I recorded it and put that up as a report. But he said, you know, they give us the white glove treatment. They were going to be requiring in Washington, D.C., that you couldn't have a car that was older the next amount of years, couldn't have more the next amount of mileage on it and so forth.

And they weren't all that high, really, especially for taxis. You know, the taxis, they can run up mileage quite quickly, but it's really the condition that you keep them in. And they charged these guys hundreds of thousands of dollars for a taxi medallion. And you had a lot of people who had invested that and then subsequently lost it because the preferential treatment given to Uber and to Lyft and to these other companies, because they were able to come in. He said, they don't inspect them like they do us. He goes, they got special inspectors and always have had for the taxi companies. They give us a white glove treatment.

They have all kinds of requirements about how new our equipment has to be and so forth. But he says there's nothing like that for Uber because they come in and they buy their way in with regulators. And they say, well, we're not a taxi company, so we don't need to pay for the medallion. We don't need to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars for a medallion. And we don't have to do this and we don't have to do that. And since we're not a taxi company, it's not necessary for us to do background checks like they do for taxi drivers. It's one of the reasons why they were having assaults and things like that, sexual assaults and rape, other things, because they didn't do the background checks. And so they fought that type of thing. And so the same type of thing here. If you are friends with the regulators,

if they're captured, if you pay them off, We're seeing this in spades now. Everybody understands it with the vaccine stuff, but this is the way all of government works. Autonomous vehicle checking all these different boxes of, has it passed the original inspection? Has automated driving systems, are they functioning? Is it running within the operational design domain? Well, if it does all that, then the inspectors could pull over

an autonomous truck only if they observe an imminent hazard or during a post-crash investigation. Well, that's not pulling it over. That's not preventing anything. That's doing autopsies. So you understand that they're building the trust gap, but they're not doing anything for safety. And when they talk about how, well, it's going to be a different kind of inspection, it's going to be a lesser inspection, a less inspection. We're going to take a quick break. When we come back, we're going to talk about some gun issues,

some amazing stories about the Second Amendment that have happened, and some of the comments of the people who are running for office over the Second Amendment. Stay with us. We'll be right back. The Common Man. They created Common Core to dumb down our children. They created common past to track and control us. Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing.

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

TheDavidKnightShow.com Well, one last thing before I leave electric vehicles and La La Land in California. This was sent to me by a listener in Charleston, South Carolina. He said, you might remember me. I was one of the first people arrested in the nation for not wearing a mask. Good for you.

Good for you. He says, I was found not guilty of trespassing see that's the thing it really is up to us on an individual level and i'm gonna hammer this theme home because we got a great interview with um that that was done at live score bet we love cheltenham just as much as we love football the excitement the roar and the chance to reward you.

And yet we see the Supreme Court caving in every regard over these mandates and other issues while the FDA is complicit in lying to the public over, you know, Cormonati and Spikevax versus the EUA. They say, well, it's completely approved, so now you can mandate it, except they don't. They said, the FDA said, these are legally distinct from what is available in the U.S. So what is available with a label has an emergency use authorization, which conveys special legal immunity from being sued, right, under the 2005 PrEP Act. But they can pretend that it is approved, even though you can't get what they have legally approved. And this is a game that is being played by the FDA. It's being played by the judiciary.

It's being played by the executive branch. It's being played by Congress because nobody in Congress is pushing back on this. Have you heard anybody? Have you heard Rand Paul, Ted Cruz, any of these people? Have you heard them pushing back on that lie, on that prevarication? No, no. Instead, what Rand Paul is concerned about is that Fauci's lies are going to create vaccine hesitancy. We don't want anybody hesitating. Just get the jab. Get the Trump shot. It's good for you. Get your GCI genetic code injections. Step up. It's going to go fast.

Everybody wants one of these. You know, remember that was the, that was the first way they rolled this thing out. Then when people weren't showing up quickly enough, they started offering million dollar lotteries. And then they finally said, all right, we'll take your job. If you don't get one, how about that? But getting back to the EVs before we get into firearms here, he this to me the guy who stood up for these mass things he said anyway i took this photo he says i um there was a conference an historical charleston place hotel downtown charleston he said

this is a no parking sign look at that but it's no parking only for EVs. It's out in front of the Charleston Place Hotel parking structure. Even they understand the fire risks and the insurance costs related to EVs if they catch fire in their parking structure. So what the sign says here that you can see. Safety warning. Due to a recall involving battery fires, Chevrolet bolt EVs and EUVs are prohibited from parking at this facility until further notice. Oh, there you go. Yeah. Uh, spontaneous combustion, right? Let's talk about firearms instead of fire vehicles.

Uh, so this is a story coming instead of fire vehicles. So this is a story coming out of North Carolina, Matthews, North Carolina, which is a suburb of Charlotte. This is a story about a kid who's been kicked out of school multiple times going back to an incident simply because he had a toy Nerf gun that was broken, that was seen, actually shown in a video at the request of the teacher, who then turned him in. Turned him in to the principal, got him suspended, turned him in to the cops who investigated and said,

this is not a threat, but it is still haunting this kid. So the police were ultimately sent to a sixth grader's home, a 12-year-old kid. The Rutherford Institute and John Whitehead are representing him, coming to his rescue, to his defense. Because now, after his parents took him out of that crazy school, they're trying to put him in a charter school, but now he's been denied admission into the charter school

because of this cloud on his record. So it was an unlawful suspension. The records were supposed to have been clarified and have that erased, sponged. But when he applied to the charter school, they went back and talked to the previous school that he had been at two years earlier. And they said, oh no, we had to suspend him for this. And so it's like, okay, lawsuit time. A sixth grader was suspended from school and reported

to police for possessing a lookalike weapon and making a threat because he briefly displayed a toy gun during a virtual Zoom class as part of a Halloween game as instructed by his teacher to look, quote, scary. She enticed him to do this. So this is a Halloween game on Zoom. Isn't it great? You know, school is so important, isn't it? Because this is the kind of stuff they do. Uh, it's very important to have your kids in school. Uh, don't, don't try to homeschool them home. And you might do something like teaching them to read, write, or do critical thinking or something. Uh, but you know, you can see what they're doing with these Zoom classes.

So it's a Zoom class. He's not even in the presence of other people. She says, look, scary. So he grabs his toy gun. He points it at the screen and then takes it down. How's that for scary? So his teacher, who enticed him to do this, then rats him out to the principal as somebody who is dangerous. She's the one who's dangerous. Anyway, I have this question, though.

Did he win the contest? Evidently, he did, because he was so scary. I don't think any of the other kids reported to the principal for being scary, but he must have won. But he doesn't get a gold star. Instead, the principal suspends him. School officials subsequently agreed to remove the unlawful suspension from the student's record, but they shared details of the incident two years later with a charter school to which the child had been admitted. Rutherford Institute attorneys warned that negligently distributing false information, which causes harm to a student's standing and reputation could constitute defamation. Karen was a personnel director for a chain of personnel of convenience stores in Houston when we lived there.

And somebody had asked for a reference. She knew that even at that time, 42 years ago, that all you do is you verify that they were employed here. If you said anything about them, even 42 years ago, you could wind up in a lawsuit, even if it were true. And this is not true. Young people are now first in line to be searched, says John Whitehead at the Rutherford Institute. They're now first in line to be searched, surveilled, spied on, threatened, tied up, locked down, tasered, and treated like criminals for non-criminal behavior. Well, why is that? Well, he knows, and you know. It's because that's what the schools are training people to live like. The schools are there to, you know, prepare people to live in society, they say. Well, what kind of society do they envision when they have metal detectors and lockdowns

and all the rest of the kind? Well, the kind of society that they're rolling out to us. I mean, they've been doing the lockdown stuff and the police state stuff in the schools for 20, 30 years now on a regular basis. And so we all got our lockdown two years ago. No problem, right? I mean, the kids are prepared for that. That's what they've been.

They've been preparing them to live in the future, in the real world, the future that they have designed. So John Whitehead says says clearly the pathology that characterizes the American police state has been passed down to the schools and has been done deliberately yes deliberate training for all of this stuff so you know the when we when we look at the... Okay, my device went out here for a second. Here's the story.

On October the 27th, 2020, a sixth grader at North Carolina School participating at home in a Chinese class via Zoom when the teacher asked the students to make a scary face as part of a trick-or-treat Halloween thing. And so he wordlessly pointed to a broken toy gun, or pointed it at the computer screen, as his scary gesture. It was the only time that the toy appeared during the class.

Afterwards, the teacher reported the incident to the school's principal, and they subsequently suspended the boy for five days. But they also reported the kid to the police. And so the Rutherford Institute had represented them at the time and sent them a demand that they remove the suspension from the child's record, and he pointed out that the state law forbids application of school disciplinary policies to off-campus conduct, unless the conduct has a direct impact on the safety of individuals in the schools. How could he, even if it were a real gun, you couldn't argue that that was a threat to the safety of the individuals. It was a Zoom thing, unless they've got some way to shoot through the

virtual reality there. So this is what we're looking at. This is what they're preparing the kids for. In New York, you've had a judge deny, this is an Obama judge, has denied a Jewish group's request to block the ban of being able to carry firearms in houses of worship. And how did this come about? Well, when they got slapped down, when the concealed carry laws, restrictive concealed carry laws got slapped down by the Supreme Court,

New York responded by saying, okay. At LiveScoreBet, we love Cheltenham just as much as we love football. The excitement, the roar, and the chance to reward you. That's why every day of the festival, we're giving new members money back as a free sports bet up to €10 if your horse loses on a selected race. That's how we celebrate the biggest week in racing. Cheltenham with LiveScore Bet.

We will say that you can't carry a gun in sensitive places, and we'll make everything a sensitive place. But especially places of worship. Churches, synagogues, that type of thing. Which we know are soft targets and we've had a lot of shootings at those types of places and um you know we've had um as a result in texas of the one shooting that was there in sutherland springs there was a subsequent shooting but they did have people in the church but you know you can usually the, the attacker gets one shot off, uh, before

somebody takes them out, which is what happened in the Texas, the second shooting there. Uh, but he was able to kill somebody. Uh, but, um, they took him out before he was able to shoot anybody else. So in New York, there was a lawsuit filed by members of a couple of Jewish congregations who are now being banned from lawfully carrying weapons to protect themselves. They had gone through years ago and been able to get a carry permit and had been carrying. And now with these new laws, which are actually more restrictive than what was shut down by the Supreme Court, if you look at it properly, if you understand. Because they were not issuing to most people. John Stossel said, I've had multiple death threats against me, the reporter.

And so he said, he replied multiple times and said, no, you don't have a good enough reason. We're just arbitrarily not going to give it to you. And he did reports about that. And so because they were doing that, the Supreme Court shut that process down. So now they have, with the sensitive places, they are blocking people who have already been able to get this one way or the other.

First request was from these people, the Jewish congregations. First request was for a temporary restraining order prohibiting the state from enforcing that. And that was denied. And now in a ruling, this Obama-appointed judge who also has political ties to Michael Bloomberg, the gun control addict, and to former Governor Cuomo, also

big gun control fan, this judge found that the plaintiffs had not met the requirements for temporary restraining order, stating that a requirement that, quote, irreparable injury will be caused absent prompt judicial intervention in circumstances where the adversary cannot be contacted or where advanced contact with the adversary would itself be likely to trigger irreparable injury. So he says the irreparable harm, this Obama judge, says the irreparable harm described by counsel includes plaintiffs being deterred from attending services and engaging in religious observance outside the synagogue and having to limit their participation in religious activities at the synagogue because of their fear that without armed protection, they would become

the target of anti-Jewish attack. So the judge says, I find that the harm pled is too remote, too speculative, and fails to reach the stringent standard of immediate irreparable harm. It's not speculation. It's been done.

It's been done against churches. There's been other things that have been done against synagogues. As this writer says, well, not only are the Second Amendment rights of the plaintiffs being violated here, but their First Amendment rights are being violated because it's inhibiting

them from being able to safely worship. I don't know what these people are going to do. I'm not giving them any legal advice, but I would just say that if it were me, we're not going to be able to live our lives if we're going to beg the government for permission to do everything. And coming up in the broadcast today, we have Matt Trawella who will be joining us talking about that. What are the limits on what we have to do in order to obey God? Is that today? Yeah, it is today. Yeah, I thought so. So anyway, they're going to say for several years, one of these individuals, Stephen Goldstein, has been licensed by the city of New York to carry a concealed firearm on the premises of their synagogue. Since originally obtaining the

permit, he's always carried a concealed firearm on the premises of the synagogue. He did this because of the high incidence of anti-Jewish hate crimes throughout the city of New York, including the section of Brooklyn where they are. He's apprehensive that he and his family and the congregation will be targeted for acts of violence because of their Jewish faith and because it is an easy target. It's just that simple. But the judges don't care. The politicians don't care. They want you harmless. John Fetterman, the same guy who wants to empty the prisons. At LiveScoreBet, we love Cheltenham just as much as we love football.

The excitement, the roar, and the chance to reward you. That's why every day of the festival, we're giving new members money back as a free sports bet up to €10 if your horse loses on a selected race. That's how we celebrate the biggest week in racing. Cheltenham with LiveScoreBet. This is total betting. Sign up by 2 p.m. 14th of March. Bet within 48 hours of race. Main market excluding specials and place bets. Terms apply. Bet responsibly. 18plusgamblingcare.ie He wants to empty your hands of anything to protect yourself from the prisoners that he unleashes.

He is adamant about pushing gun control, and he's running for Senate. What a pathetic situation it is in Pennsylvania. You got the guy who is retiring, a Republican, who is given a going-away party essentially by Davos. While they were having their primaries, he was at Davos. And the two primary candidates, one of whom was endorsed by Trump, Dr. Oz. But Dr. Oz and the other guy who was a multimillionaire businessman, they were two frontrunners. Both of them have had a lot of ties with Davos as well.

That was pointed out by the third place individual, a young black woman who said both of these guys are Davos guys, one of them endorsed by Trump. Trump would not endorse her. He went with the Davos guys. One of them endorsed by Trump. Trump would not endorse her. He went with the Davos guy. He went with the celebrity. And so now we've got Dr. Oz, who's not only just this empty celebrity with no political principles whatsoever.

He's a Republican in name only. He's a Pennsylvanian in name only. He lives in New Jersey. He's an American in name only because he has been primarily focused. He comes here to make his money and his celebrity stuff, but he's primarily focused on his Turkish citizenship, even doing a stint in the Turkish military to keep his Turkish citizenship. He's not renounced his dual citizenship. He promises that if elected, he will do that before he's sworn in so he can get access to secret documents.

That is a pathetic thing on the side of the Republicans. And this is why most people don't get interested in the political situation until the final election. But the good choice was already missed. They already gave up when they didn't support the young woman back in the primary. She was the genuine conservative, not affiliated with the globalists. And she was out of there. So now you've got a situation where you've got Dr. Oz on the Republican side, and then on the Democrat side, you've got somebody who's even worse.

It's a lesser of evils type of thing, which you always get into. That's what they want you into. So Fetterman wants to empty the prisons, and he wants to take all guns away from people. He wants to end the filibuster so they can push a gun ban through, is what he's saying. He wants to be able to ban assault weapons. And again, what's the definition of assault weapon? Well, now we've seen that the ATF can change the definition of a fully automatic weapon, you know, something with a bump stock that makes it a fully automatic weapon. And so they have, uh, taken it upon themselves that they can define what a firearm is.

Uh, they can define what a fully automatic weapon is, and they will define what an assault weapon is, and you better believe they're going to define that to take away everything they can. And that's the precedent that was established by Trump and is being pressed to a higher degree by the Democrats. So Fetterman referred to NRA members as the lunatic fringe of gun ownership. NRA, the lunatic fringe, he says. He says, I'm not afraid of anything. I'm certainly not afraid of the NRA. And let me be clear, the NRA does not represent the overwhelming

majority of what gun owners really believe and want. That's right. Most gun owners want something that is far more pro second amendment than the NRA is. They've been willing to, to compromise our rights on many different levels at many different times. In response to the July 4th, 2022 attack on Highland park independence day parade, he called for a filibuster to be ended as the Democrats could push an assault weapons ban

through the Senate. His gun control aspirations also include getting rid of the filibuster so Democrats can secure universal background checks on gun sales. He wants to push to expand retail checks so as to mandate checks on private gun sales as well. And Breitbart points out that,

you know, when you go back and you look at all these, they've got about 30 different mass shootings where they said, look, typically in all of these cases, we're told that they didn't buy these as a private sale. They bought them at retail, and at retail they do all the background checks already. But it isn't just that he wants to ban the sale of certain types of guns and to expand background checks. He says that he wants to ban ownership of rifles. We're talking about confiscation as well.

This is what Fetterman wants. So he has said twice this year, Of rifles. We're talking about confiscation as well. This is what Fetterman wants. So, um, he has said twice this year that he supports banning the ownership of rifles. And, uh, the Republican national committee is now running videos of those.

Uh, this is a step further than the sale. This is about confiscation. When you talk about ownership, he said, I've always supported a ban to assault rifle ownership. We should not have weapons of war in the hands of civilians. Well, that's exactly what it is for. Second Amendment explicitly says they want a well-trained citizen militia. Well-trained is what well-regulated means.

And that's the best defense of a nation that a standing army is a dangerous thing to have. And so exactly what they wanted was to have armed and trained populace, the militia. In an April 9th video, he also said that he wanted to eliminate the filibuster so he could ban the ownership of rifles.

He says, that's one of the main reasons why I call for the elimination of the filibuster. 80 to 90% of Americans support the elimination, excuse me, banning assault rifle ownership and common sense gun control legislation. So banning ownership of firearms is, to him, common sense.

I talked about it the other day, and it was in the context of somebody talking about California's law, and it was actually the legal council that was going to be pushing back against that. They said, we think we've got a good chance of stopping this because in California, they're begging teenagers to flee to their state. And if you come there, they'll protect you from those evil parents who want to bring you back home and we'll protect you from them and we'll mutilate you. We'll mutilate your genitals and we'll do mastectomies and all this other kind of stuff against your parents' wishes

and we'll protect you against them. And so the person who was pushing back against that said, well, I think we've got a pretty good case here because they have to honor the laws of other states. And I said at the time, well, I don't think that's the case. And I talked about how people who were licensed to carry in other states have been victimized by New Jersey's aggressive gun carrying laws, prohibitions. And so I had an attorney write me. He says, yeah, these laws do not follow you to another state.

Gun laws do not. New York is an awful example. He says only contracts clause in the U.S. Constitution, which means that you can take a judgment and collect it in another state. Any attempt to make state laws recognizable in another state will fail. This is basic law. It's absolutely right. And he also sent this yesterday. He said the Supreme Court sent a case back to Massachusetts today. They did not want to hear it. And, you know, just as they sent the case on vaccine mandates back, and just as they have done with several important cases

that we're not interested in it, we're going to let it stand in the wrong way. This particular case, you had an individual was convicted of nonviolent misdemeanor for carrying a gun without a permit while in Washington, D.C. He had a license to carry in Massachusetts. You see?

Not going to be, you don't have that kind of reciprocity across state lines. That's why I don't think that, you know, the attorney's assessment about the fact, well, you know, they're going to respect other states' laws and other states will have laws that say the parents get the final say over these kids. I don't think that's going to happen. And here's an example. You see yet again in a gun control district, Washington, D.C., he had a license to carry from Massachusetts. He didn't realize that it remained valid in Washington, D.C.

He was law-abiding, but they found him carrying near the American Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C. They arrested him and he was sentenced to jail time. And now because of that, he can't get his permit to carry in Massachusetts either. Maybe he's going to have to move out of one of these communist states. We're going to take a quick break. When we come back, we're going to talk about what is happening in Germany with the next level of LGBT stuff. Stay with us.

We will be right back. You're listening to The David Knight Show. Back to the news. I want to thank Susie Moody. Thank you very much, Susie, for the tip on Rockfin.

And Travis is undergoing treatment now. And so I'd appreciate your prayers for that. And for their safe return. undergoing treatment now. And, uh, sort of appreciate your prayers for that and, um, and for their safe return. Uh, and I'm glad that you got the merchandise. I got to say the people that are, have ordered that it's, um, it's going to be slower than usual for us to get this stuff out for the next couple of weeks. So keep that in mind. If you place an order, please be patient with us because, um, we because we're down to nothing here. It's just me and my son who are running it.

And normally there's four of us doing this stuff. And Karen has been the one filling the orders and taking them down and standing in line at the post office and that type of thing. I haven't gotten that out in the last three days. Anything that's been ordered in the last three days, I haven't put it out yet. So please be patient with us. Sorry about that. Let's talk about what's going ordered in the last three days. I haven't put it out yet. So please be patient with us. Sorry about that. Let's talk about what's going on in Berlin, though. They have an LGBT daycare.

That's the purpose of the LGBT. It is to instill these values in the kids. Because that is the purpose of education. I remember the story of a guy who said when his kid was in kindergarten, and that was several decades ago, he said they had a parent teacher day, and parents were there, and so the parents go in, and they were talking about what they were having the kids do,

and they were so proud of the activity, and he raises his hand and he goes, but what's the purpose of that? I don't know. I don't know. It's got to have a purpose. I mean, what are you trying to do with the kid? Do you have a purpose?

And it used to be that the biggest problem with education was that they didn't have a purpose, but now they have a dedicated purpose because, you you see the education should be targeted for something, you know, even in kindergarten, even in daycare, you are focused on instilling values. You know, we're not doing, um, you know, we're not training people to do calculus because they want to be engineers and we're not training them in anatomy because they want to be doctors at this point in time. We're not training them how to operate machinery. This is not, all of those things are really technical vocational

issues. When we talk about education, we're talking about values. And so we're ultimately talking about religion. That's why you cannot have freedom of religion, in my opinion, without freedom of education. And it's one of the other reasons why I believe that I shouldn't have to be forced to pay for schools that are going to instill values that I find to be abhorrent. Any more than when you had the establishment of religion and you would have to, in some states, you would have to attend. You'd have compulsory attendance laws. You know, we used to have compulsory attendance laws in schools and they want to get them

back. They don't want anybody out of their system. So we used to have compulsory attendance laws for churches, but even in the other states, you had compulsory money to be given to the churches, to the state-established church. And we have an established state church in the schools. And we need to recognize it, understand that's what it is, and then shut it down. Anyway, an LGBT daycare center opens in Berlin

with a pro-pedophilia advocate as a board member. Oh. Two LGBT daycare centers for small children are set to open in Berlin next year with the aim to make it easier to, quote, come out later in life. One of the board members of the organization running the daycare center is known as a known advocate for the normalization of pedophilia.

If only Christians were as adamant about instilling values in people as the LGBT are. They are real evangelists, aren't they, for their religion. We just kind of step back and say, well, it'll happen. I don't have to do anything. I'm sure that they'll just, you know, they'll figure it out and fall into it. You know, as a parent, I don't have to do anything at all. I can just be completely passive. I'm sure I can send it to the school and they'll be fine. The idea behind the daycare centers is to show what it's like to be gay or lesbian.

So they'll be modeling that for them, teaching them from children's books and modeling it in real life. Children would not have to know if they are gay or lesbian in order to attend because they will groom them on site for you. All children will be accepted. They will prefer to get some kids who have not already been indoctrinated by their parents successfully, so they can indoctrinate them. 63 children have already been signed up for the centers by their parents. By their parents. The centers are also notable for their connection to an 86-year-old individual,

Rudiger Lautmann, who is infamous for his advocacy for the normalization of pedophilia. You know, you used to look at this kind of stuff and say, only in Germany, only in Europe or whatever would we see this type of stuff. No, it's global. In his 1994 book that was titled The Lust for the Child, The Lust for the Child, Lautman interviewed several pedophiles

with the official stated goal to gain new insight into the psychological disorder. He just wants to study it. He's not really advocating for it, except that he did. Lautman then defended pedophiles by drawing a distinction between pedophile abuse and real pedophilia. And he said it was a legitimate form of sexuality. He stated that some children would want and enjoy this form of sexual engagement. He goes even beyond this nonsense about maps, minor attracted persons, which those people are allowed

to have their groups and talk about pedophilia on Twitter, for example. And we'll be talking about Twitter, what's going on with that. But with Elon Musk is now going to buy it again. What does that mean? But anyway, no, they say they just don't act on it. They just don't act on it. Oh, really? Okay. Well, you know, he goes a little bit beyond that. And as I've said for the longest time, the short-term goal, the LGBT is pedophilia. If you can get this transgender stuff, if you can get the kids to say that we understand what our gender is at a very young age and they can do a major surgery and chemicals and all the rest of the stuff that is irreversible. And then they can consent to sex, which is why they're doing this to the kids.

But ultimately, it is about transhumanism. That's what they're trying to instill into society. In 2008, this guy Lautman wrote a positive obituary about Helmut Kettler, called him, quote, a beacon of light. Kettler was, however, later identified to be behind one of the biggest pedophile abuse scandals in German history. For decades, Berlin's youth welfare offices placed children and adolescents in the care of pedophile offenders who sexually abused them for years. And the mastermind behind this pedophile network was Helmut Kettler.

So now they're setting up a network of daycare centers. So one person, a conservative in Germany, took issue with this. Birgit Keller, a conservative author, was banned from Twitter after she posted this in response to this situation. She said, it's good to know that three-year-olds don't have to decide if they're gay or lesbian yet. But thanks to pedophile savant Lottman on the board, they're sure to find great people to talk to if they want to know more about sex. Protect your kids from this LGBT propaganda. For that, she was banned from Twitter.

She was allowed back into her account a day later, saying that her return was due to the help of a free speech organization that put pressure on them. But this is where we are with speech. And if you think that the pressure is going to get any less, look at the fact that we have major medical associations, three of them, the American Medical Association, the AMA, as well as the American Academy of Pediatrics, and the Children's Hospital Association. All three of them are demanding that Attorney General Merrick Garland come after and take swift action, quote, to investigate and to prosecute those who allegedly threaten or target hospitals

and physicians who provide transgender mutilation of children. Let that sink in. This is the same attorney general who doesn't have a problem with people spraying graffiti threats on churches and on crisis pregnancy centers, and also arson. He doesn't have a problem with that. These people are concerned because there have been negative comments. People get very angry when they see this kind of pedophile abuse. And it is beyond pedophilia. It is really sick.

As I said before, there's been some really sick movies. One of them came out after I talked to, um, at a, at a convention, I talked to a new line cinema video executive who was trying to get everybody to do DVDs. I said, well, that'd be a great idea because, uh, you know, frankly, the content, this is 35 years ago, the content on a lot of these films is unnecessarily over the top and a lot of people don't want to rent it. But I said it would help if they could have additional scenes or be able to branch around scenes on DVD, which I know you have the technical capability to do, so they could have a cleaned up airport version or airline version of the film. And I said, no, no, directors hate that kind of stuff. Not going to do that.

And then they came out with one that was even worse. And it was about this sick fetish of mutilation and all the rest of this stuff. In a sense, you know, you look at the sickness of pedophilia, what they're doing here with the mutilation of minors is even sicker. It's even sicker than that, I think. It's an obsession with these people, just like the sexual aspect of it is. It's about dominating and hurting these kids.

There's no love in any of this stuff. There's no love in pedophilia. And there is no love in that they're not protecting these kids in any way, shape, or form. It's a sadistic mutilation of these children. But they said, the American Academy of Pediatrics, right, Attorney General Merrick Garland, said, we cannot stand by as threats of violence against our members and patients proliferate without consequences.

So we call on the Department of Justice to investigate these attacks and social media platforms to reduce the spread of misinformation enabling them. They noted that children's hospitals and their staffs have faced increased threats via social media along with harassing emails. These are criticisms. These are criticisms on social media. But the same Department of Justice that won't do anything about threats written in graffiti on buildings and arson conducted on the buildings,

you better believe they're going to jump into this. So the investigative reporter, Christopher Ruffo, reported that medical associations letters are part of the left's playbook now. He cited last year's example of the National School Board Association's letter to the Department of Justice, asking them to investigate parents who are opposed to them pushing critical race theory. So now the hospitals are doing the same thing. You know, we're pushing transgender mutilation of sadistic stuff on kids, you know, for money, whatever. And, uh, people are, are criticizing us for that.

And, uh, we don't want people talking to us about that. Not even on social media. Uh, he says, this is now the left's playbook book. Uh, he said last year, the department of justice, the FBI worked together with the, uh, school board association to label parents who opposed critical race theory and spoke out against it. They call them domestic terrorists. We all know that. So now this is what they want to do. Now they want to criminalize opposition to mutilation, opposing them even on social media. They want to shut that down.

Now the New York Times is, of course, part of it is censorship, intimidation, criminalization of speech. And then the other part of it is taking the mainstream media and using the mainstream media to promote what you want to do. So the New York Times is now promoting elective mastectomies on teens. That's a wonderful thing. A headline for the New York Times just days ago promoted the Miami practice of a surgeon who does top surgery on teens.

That's mastectomies. Teen girls. The Times said, well, there is little evidence of the long-term benefits of transgender surgery for minors, but then it goes on to blast those who would protect kids from these influencers who promote these radical surgeries, condemning Republican elected officials, quote-unquote, for seeking to ban all so-called gender-affirmative care for minors.

Republicans are bad. So at the time, small studies have shown that many transgender adolescents report significant discomfort related to their breasts, including difficulty showering, sleeping, and dating. As the population of these adolescents has grown, top surgery has been offered at younger and younger ages. Ignored by the New York Times are many people who have now spoken out about that. After they've gotten older, they regret that because they don't have the maturity to make these types of decisions.

Everybody, even adults, are very much influenced by peers and by people in authority. The Milgram experiment, the Ash experiment. We all know that. Children especially, though. And they don't have the maturity. They don't have the perspective. I mean, we've even had studies that show how the brain changes in the way it processes information in the early to mid-20s versus children and teenagers. But it's also the experience and the judgment. They don't have it. That's why we protect them in so many different ways. That's why we prohibit them from doing certain activities. But a doctor, one of these doctors that's there, actually uses social media to promote it, right? So you will ban the other side, but you will actually then use these same outlets

to promote what you want to do. Dr. Gallagher said, we're happy to offer top surgery to minors with the consent of parents and the recommendation of the patient's mental health professionals. So, you know, you look at this, and it wasn't that long ago that they were pushing patients' mental health professionals. So, you know, you look at this,

and it wasn't that long ago that they were pushing double mastectomies for anybody that they thought was genetically predisposed to maybe have breast cancer later in life, right? It's just a continuum. They just do it iteratively, don't they? I talked briefly earlier this week about the fact that John MacArthur had sent an open letter to Gavin Newsom, triggered, I think, by the fact that he was committing blasphemy, trying to use love your neighbor as yourself to promote abortions.

And so he went on, he started at that point, and he said, you know, your soul is in grave danger. You're going to stand before God and answer for what you're doing, and you need to think about that. But he went a little bit further. This last Sunday, he was preaching a sermon from 1 Timothy 2, where Christians are told to pray for kings and all those in authority so that we might live peaceful and quiet lives. And it reminds me every time I hear that,

I think of Fiddler on the Roof, where they come to the rabbi and they say, Rabbi, is there a prayer for the czar? And he says, yes. God bless and keep the czar far away from us. So that's the first thing that I pray. When I pray for our leaders, I pray to keep our leaders from us. But as he points out, it's really to pray for the salvation of them, because if they are saved, they're not going to be coming after us in the way that they are right now. You know, that's the most effective way to keep them from attacking us so that we can live peaceful and quiet lives. MacArthur said, to do this is to acknowledge the power of prayer. He said, we need to know that God is calling us to do that.

Though it may seem hard, though there are things that we don't like about the people in power over us, a lot of things, we would do an act of disobedience against our calling if we did not pray for their salvation. And that goes not only for the governors, but for all rulers all the way to the presidency and around the world.

He said, praying for leaders is part of our ministry. If you want to live a quiet life, if you want to have a peaceful life in human society and godliness and dignity, then pray for the rulers. And you'll pray for your society as well. There are key issues that we will disagree with each other about over things that are really key. What is our ultimate standing before God and what makes us justified before God?

Is it our works or is it our faith in Christ's works that justifies? And that separates a lot of people, and that is a key issue. But on the other hand, if we even get to the point where people acknowledge the Bible as a moral standard and really understand that, that is an important beginning piece. And even just at that level, even if people don't come to a right relationship with God, if they begin at that point, that would be a radical change in our society. That would basically take us back to America in the 1940s and 50s, because that's where America was. We had a lot of unsaved people in America. But they knew that they were sinners, even if they were still in rebellion. And they were ashamed to do some of the things that people are proud of now.

And we didn't have the kind of violence that we have now. All of that, if you understand that you're going to stand before God, even if you don't really know, understand what it is that you need to do, even if you're kidding yourself and saying, well, I'll address that later in life. For right now, I'm going to do what I want to do. I know I've got many years left to live and that type of thing. That used to be the big issue when I was a kid.

That'd be what the, they didn't have to convince people that they were going to stand before God. They just had to convince them that that time frame was not something that they had any control over or knew anything about. And that was a key thing. That was, I think, the biggest thing that I would hear in my circle. You know, people rebelliously say, yeah, yeah, I'll get right with God later on. But right now I'm going to do what I want. Well, that's not the way it works. You think you're going to manipulate and fool God? that's not the way it works. You think you're going to manipulate and fool God.

That's not the way it works. So anyway, that used to be what it was, but we had a society because people did understand what was right and wrong. And there were certain things that they didn't want to cross the line on. And they knew that if they did cross the line on that, there would be societal consequences for it. Now there are societal consequences if you try to lead a life that respects the authority of the Bible. Now that's where we are.

Anyway, he says, if you want to live a quiet life, if you want to have a peaceful life in human society, all godliness and dignity, he said, pray for the rulers because so much of what society is, as we know very well, is a direct result of the rulers and the leaders. We're to pray for the salvation of all men, but especially for those who rule over us, because that conversion at that level changes culture dramatically. So when things aren't the way that you would like them to be, yes, we recognize that sin has consequences. Yes, we recognize that divine judgment is operating. But still, the promise here is that we should pray for the conversion of rulers, because it will change our life as we know it. And finally, he says, you know, did you ever think about the fact that

as Stephen was being stoned and Paul was standing there participating in the process, that Stephen prayed for those people who were killing him. He said, you know, perhaps the prayer of Stephen was part of what saved Paul. We'll take a quick break, and we're going to come back and talk about what's going on with Twitter. I just talked about how somebody was banned from Twitter for pointing out this grooming of kids. Well, now Elon Musk has suddenly changed his mind.

Why did he change his mind? I'll tell you when we come back. Stay with us. ¶¶ in a world of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act you're listening to the david knight show thank you tyler i appreciate the tip on, on my couldn't. Thank you very much. He says, love your show, Dave, long time listener. Keep being you. Well, thanks. I don't know anybody else I could be, but, uh, I'll, uh, I'll try to keep it real. Let's just say, uh, and so now we've had Elon Musk. Remember he almost impulsively decided that he

was going to buy Twitter. Certainly he, uh, it seemed like that was what was behind his backing out of it. And a lot of people said, well, you know, Hey, uh, you didn't know that there were bots on Twitter. Did you not do due diligence? Well, we had, uh, as part of the lawsuit last Thursday, it went public. Some of the phone messages, uh, of the phone messages and texts and everything, the people who were contacting Elon Musk. And there's been a lot of talk about this.

And I didn't get into it because, again, it's kind of the celebrity status of Elon Musk. I think it's more important for people to understand where he's coming from with the technocracy, with Neuralink, and the other issues that are there but um it is it is kind of interesting to see it and i thought it was also interesting that he didn't lie to people and try to cover up the fact that he had text messages on his phone and emails like somebody else i know very well uh you know when alex did that, I guess maybe he learned from Alex

because you know, if you don't, if you line, you don't comply with discovery. You lose by default. And they knew that he was hiding back information. That's why the two judges and the lawsuits, uh, said, well, you're not complying with all this information. And so they, you know, they, he lost the lawsuit. As I said before, there's certain things that you have to do. If somebody sues you, you have to respond to it.

If you don't respond to it within a certain period of time, they win by default. And then if you don't comply by giving people this information and with Elon Musk, this is, you know, all these texts that were there. Very personal information that went public. Personal information about him and about, um, Larry Ellison and a lot of, uh, these big movers and shakers, these billionaires. And, uh, so now, you know, what they had to say to him and what he said back to them about various things has now been made public. Uh, but you have to comply with that because otherwise you never know. Your highly paid lawyer might just give the other side all your texts and there might be a Perry Mason moment that shows that you committed perjury and shows that you were,

in fact, covering up information that you chose not to participate in the lawsuit and not to defend free speech. You just decided that she would try to hide your money and hide your information. But anyway, so now Elon Musk texts went out and one of the key things about it was the fact that he had been talking to people about how many bots there were there. And he had been talking to people about how filled with bots Twitter was.

And that was done before he signed the offer. So it destroyed his argument that information was concealed from him. He knew about that. He had done due diligence. I mean, when he filed the lawsuit, a lot of people said, well, did he not do due diligence? And if he didn't do due diligence, that doesn't give him an excuse to get out of the contract. It's just on him, right? He bought into this without looking into it.

Well, he did look into it and he did know. And so there wasn't any lack of due diligence and there wasn't a concealment and so as a result of that and that kicking around his lawyers had also and the initial rulings from the judges from the judge it was all going against them so with all that combined and really the texts were the key thing showing that he knew about all this stuff, he then decided that he would, all right, never mind, I'll go back and I'll buy it like I originally said. And so the stock shot up yesterday, 13%. It is still at $52 a share, and he's going to be buying it at $54 a share. But there is some uncertainty there

because I think there is a contingency perhaps in the contract that he can put the financing together. So it isn't 100% sure, even though he says he's going to go buy it, that he's going to be able to get this together. But there were, the Atlantic did kind of a snarky article talking about, well, um,

you know, the texts were very juicy. They said, uh, not because they're lurid, not because they're offensive or because they offer up some scandalous, uh, scandalous,

uh, information. What is illuminating about the Musk messages is just how unimpressive, how unimaginative and how, uh, sycophantic the powerful men in his circle are. In other words, they're all sucking up to him. Well, because he's the richest among all of them.

They're a bunch of opportunists, I guess. Whoever said there's no bad ideas in a brainstorming session never had access to Elon Musk's phone. The dominant reaction from all the threads that I'm in said one person is everybody looks exceedingly dumb. Said one former social media executive who he says I've granted anonymity because they have relationships with many of the people and Musk's texts. A person said it's been a it's been a general. Is this really how business is done? What everybody is saying.

There's no real strategic thought or analysis. It's just emotional, and it's done without any real care for consequence. So this person says, appearing in the document is, I suppose, a perverse kind of status symbol. And yet, you know, said all these people look really dumb. It said, first of all, there's Joe Rogan. You mean Joe Rogan looked really dumb? Really? Mark Andreessen, the venture capitalist, Larry Ellison, the founder of Oracle,

and of course, Jack Dorsey, Twitter's co-founder and former CEO. We're all in these texts. A few of the men in Musk's phone consider themselves to be his equal. Many of the messages come off as fawning. Possibly more opportunistic than earnest, Musk is perceived to have power, and these pillars of the tech industry want to be close to it. Joe Lonsdale, co-founder of Palantir, said, I love your Twitter algorithm should be open source tweet, Joe. I'm sorry.

Joe is the guy who sent it. He suggested that he was going to mention the idea to members of Congress at an upcoming GOP policy retreat. There you go. See, this is how the stupid laws get made. The politicians are no better than this. And everybody is sucking up to whoever's got the most money and of course the politicians have a great deal of money at their disposal to give these people to start them on their path to becoming billionaires which is what they do to

these people later on musk chastised one of these individuals for trying to whip up public investments. He said the guy's name was Kalanis, C-A-L-A-C-A-N-I-S. I'm not familiar with this guy. Anyway, this guy had written a lot of fawning messages that are covered in this Atlantic article. And Musk replied to him and said, Morgan Stanley and Jared think that you

are using our friendship not in a good way. This makes it seem like I'm desperate, so please stop. And he says, I only ever wanted to support you. Now, one of the things that I thought was interesting was he referred to Jared. Just how good is this whole thing going to be if Jared Kushner is involved in all this stuff? Right? Maybe it's a Jared at Morgan Stanley. I don't know. But anyway, at one point in early April, Musk appears infatuated with his own idea to replace Twitter with a blockchain-based payment and message system. In a string of texts to his brother, entrepreneur Kimball Musk, he manages to convince himself that the idea could be a huge way to crush spam while preserving free speech. In this scenario, users would have to pay

a fractional amount of the cryptocurrency Dogecoin to post or to retweet. Roughly 10 days later, Musk sends a different text noting that blockchain Twitter is not possible. Well, as people are looking at this and looking at how the deals are done and looking at the comments from these various people, one person who's the founder of a tech publication called The Information was talking about Andreessen and the Andreessen tech said, this is one of the most telling things

I've ever seen about how investing works in Silicon Valley. He said, she said it offers a look at the boys club and the power network of the tech world in action. Is it surprising that rich people, including one of the world's 10 richest men are throwing money at their friends the way that you might in a low stakes poker game? Not really. The eagerness to pony up for Musk and the lazy quality of this deal-making reveal something that's deeper about the brokenness of this investment ecosystem and the way that it's driven more by vibes and by grievances than by due diligence. So, they said, for the crew and the early success of the past companies or their careers are usually a prologue.

And they believe, of course, that their skills will transfer to any area that they wish to conquer, including magically solving free speech. But what they're actually doing is just winging it. They're just making this up as they go along. Well, that's a very cynical view from the Atlantic. There's another view from Zero Hedge that is not quite as cynical. But the real question is, what is going to become of Twitter? Is he going to do things, as he'd point out, making it open source

so that people would know that it's not being rigged. One person said about this is that, well, the lesson here is if you sign a contract, a court is going to make you perform. Finally, his lawyers made that clear to him. And prominent investors that Musk previously disclosed had committed funds include Larry Ellison and some other people who are in charge of cryptocurrency and a German publisher who just purchased Politico. And he has some interesting things to say. And there's some interesting comments from Zero Hedge about it. But basically, he's going to go through with this, or at least

try to put this through. The plan is contingent on him lining up necessary debt financing and the court issuing an immediate stay of action. It's a tough time for banks, however, to sell debt. With yields at multi-year highs, banks led by Morgan Stanley could be on the hook for hundreds of millions of dollars of losses on the unsecured portion alone should they attempt to unload it on investors. So there's still some big issues that are there in terms of financing. And so it's not really resolved and for sure yet that he's going to get Twitter. But let's take a look at the analysis from Zero Hedge, what they make out of some of these tweets.

Here's what he'll do to the platform in his own words, a Zero Hedge article. He said, first, it's stated in the following exchange with a CEO of Valor, Antonio Gracias. Musk believes in free speech, so much so that he finds Russia Today, he said, quite entertaining. He says there's a lot of BS, but there's some good points too. So that, along with the fact of there were texts that were shown going back and forth between he and his ex-wife,

between Musk and his ex-wife, she was dismayed at the suspension of Babylon B from Twitter. And so she proposed to Musk, she said, buy Twitter and make it radically free or just delete it. This is what the Uber rich say. You know, I don't like Twitter. I think I'll just fix it or delete it. How about that?

I'd like to be able to do that, right? We all would. But he actually gets to do it. And then there's some texts, as I said before, from venture capital entrepreneur John Lonsdale. And they talked about how they wanted to make Twitter an open source algorithm. They said it's important to rein in big tech, and quote, this is what John Lonsdale says. He says, our public square needs to not have arbitrary speech censorship. Well, I totally agree with that.

And Musk came back and essentially seconded that. And I hope that that is going to be the case. And it is a little bit more hopeful that this was going back and forth in some private messages. I would be a lot more cynical if this was something that Musk and these other guys were saying in public, because they would just be virtue signaling, perhaps. But when they're doing this in private, perhaps they really mean that. But then again, it comes down to, will they continue to believe that?

Will they have their arms twisted, or will they be bribed by government to do censorship? Because that's really where the censorship is coming from. Let's be clear about that. You know, it's not coming from, there are little clicks inside these companies that are actually doing censorship. You know, I could see that myself in a short period of time when, in the immediate reaction to this, a lot of people at Twitter just kind of walked away. So I know that some of the stuff that was being done to my account there on Twitter is being done by some person who's taken me as their special project under their wing.

You know, it's not an algorithm because it comes and goes. You know, they go home on weekends and it doesn't happen on weekends. And then it happens on Monday through Friday. And then when they take a little bit of time away, then it comes back again. So I know that that type of thing is going on. But I also know that they're under a lot of pressure from the American government, from all different governments, and that they kowtow to that, that they really are the velvet glove of the iron fist of government censorship.

Anyway, a few weeks later, John Lonsdale, who had said that, made an interesting observation. He said, I bet you on the board doesn't, I bet even though you're on the board, you don't get full reporting or see any report of the censorship decisions and the little cabals that are going on there. But the people should. He said the lefties, though, on the board, likely want to have plausible deniability.

Oh, I didn't know that was happening. I thought, you know, we had these fair algorithms. I didn't know that you had subordinates that were out there focusing on individual people as a pet project. Things got more interesting in this exchange, says Zero Hedge, with Twitter founder Jack Dorsey. Jack Dorsey echoed not only that Twitter must be, quote, an open source protocol, but that it, quote, can't have an advertising model.

Otherwise, you have surface area that governments and advertisers will try to influence and control. If it has a centralized entity behind it, it will be attacked. Now, I've got to say, Jack Dorsey comes off really well in this because it shows that he's really sincere, I think, in terms of trying to take sides. And remember, it was under Jack Dorsey where Twitter was saying, we're going to be the free speech wing

of the free speech party, right? But it's very clear also in these tweets that Jack Dorsey believes that he lost control of Twitter. And after he walked away, the guy that took his place was bragging about how they were going to control speech. And so,

um, you know, he felt like he had just lost that fight there. So he says, uh, Jack Dorsey says, this isn't complicated work, but it has to be done right.

So that it is resilient to what has happened to Twitter. In other words, Twitter lost it. We started Twitter out. It's free speech and they took it away from, and he had to walk away from it. So he says, we've got to make sure that it is not centralized control, and it's got to be open, and we've got to get away from the advertising model because he says, if we have those things, the government and the corporations will come after it, and they'll destroy it like they did Twitter.

So Musk tells Jack Dorsey, it's worth both trying to move Twitter in a better direction and doing something new that is decentralized. So again, it looks like he is well-meaning. But the two things that are going to have to happen there, he's going to have to retain that commitment, and he is also going to have to be able to fight off the government and not be bribed by them as well.

Another exchange after Musk announced that he was seeking a board seat was with Matthias Daffner, head of Germany's Axel Springer. This is the company that just purchased Politico. And as Zero Hedge points out, his company does everything in his power to make his personal media outlets painstakingly, boringly, crushingly woke and politically correct. But now we learn in these private tweets that he's really just another hypocrite. That in reality, in his private life, he is very anti-woke, even though his corporations do everything that you would expect the woke people to do. He says, we need to create a marketplace for algorithms so that if you're a snowflake and you don't want content that offends you, you pick another algorithm.

I imagine this comes out of his own personal experience, right? He's tired of catering to these people. He's tired of catering to the worst case snowflakes out there. So he says, all right, so let's just give people different algorithms. So if you want a highly censored Twitter that's not going to have certain content on it, this is the algorithm that this is the way you're going to interact with Twitter. Somebody else who wants something that's not going to have certain content on it. This is the algorithm. This is the way you're going to interact with Twitter. Somebody else who wants something that's wide open, this is what they can choose. Let the people choose what they want to see by choosing different algorithms,

he said. Zero Hayes says, if only Duffner would do the same with his empire of snowflake catering tabloids. Here is the rest of what the CEO of one of the world's biggest tabloid empires and the recent acquirer of Politico wants to do. He said, Twitter is the de facto public town square. This is the truth. And I say this all the time,

but you very rarely see people say this, and they will say it in private. They know it. Jack Dorsey said it in public, I said, under testimony several times. He said Twitter is the town square. That was not being imposed on him by government. They were not trying to take away his property rights

or anything like that if he had any. Again, I don't think that corporations have free speech rights. They're not people. People have First Amendment protection. Why? Not because the government gives it to us. That would be a privilege. We have these rights, such as free speech, because we are created in the image of God.

That's what the Declaration of Independence says, and that's the core belief and principles of this country. And so we create government to protect those rights. Now, on the other hand, the corporations are created by government. And as a result, they have certain responsibilities that can be attached to that as for the privilege of existing. They are creatures of government, then they are answerable to government, and they should be made to answer by the government that we have instilled to protect our God-given rights. So he said it is the de facto public town square. But it is a problem that it does not adhere to the free speech principles. So the core product here is pretty good.

But number one, it does not serve democracy. And number two, the current business model is a dead end as reflected by the flat share price. So he says, so here's the goal. We make Twitter the global backbone of free speech, an open marketplace of ideas that truly complies with the spirit of the First Amendment, and we shift the business model to a combination of ad-supported and paid-to-support quality. See, there was some substantive discussions here in these tweets. You know, the Atlantic just dismisses it as a bunch of nonsense,

and I'm sure there was a lot of that there. But this is substantive. So he says, to solve the free speech problem, he says, step number one, make it censorship-free by radically reducing the terms of service. He said, the terms of service is now hundreds of pages. Did you realize that? I didn't realize that. Every time these people change their terms of services, right? They say, well, you've got new TOS. If you want to continue to use YouTube or Twitter or Facebook or whatever,

you need to accept these new terms of service. If you start to read it, it's highly technical, it's legal, and it is hundreds of pages long. What other situation do we have where one side of the group can pull this kind of trick, right? I mean, is this a contract between two people? When you have invested years worth of work in trying to build your presence on a platform or something like that, and then these other people, you did it based on a contract, on terms of service that were there. And then they decided they're going to unilaterally change the terms of service. Now, you don't have to use their platform.

You can walk away from all the stuff that you built under the previous terms of service. Or you can accept their new terms of service, which might be really vicious. PayPal first took down the Daily Skeptic and Free Speech Union and the guy that was running it. They just banned them all three at the same time. Like they did me back in May of 2021. Uh, he got the ear of a lot of people in the establishment press in the UK and of

people in parliament, they complained to PayPal and PayPal relented and put them back on. However, PayPal has now come back and they have changed their terms of service. And they've made it clear that not only will they, can they and will they kick you off if they don't like your speech, but they can also keep up to $2,500 for each thing that you say that they don't like.

Think about that. $2,500 fine that they don't like. Think about that. $2,500 fine that they will assess against you because that's their new terms of service. Now, you got a lot of, everywhere we go, all these different platforms, we had to look high and low to try to find somebody that didn't use PayPal because I'm banned from using PayPal. Now, if I were to use PayPal, you know,

fortunately we found somebody, it took a long time, but, uh, uh, you know, for, to sell the merchandise on the, on the website. But, um, if I were to use PayPal, then, um, you know, they could, uh, easily steal all the money that I had in there at any given time, right? You know, take $2,500 for everything that I said that they disagree with. Just pick one three-hour show. And it'd be a gold mine for them if I had that much money in there. Basically, they just use it to confiscate all the money that you have, is what they're saying.

It's absolutely reprehensible, this whole terms of service model thing. The fact that they can unilaterally change the contract, which you might have invested years and who knows how much money in terms of building that. And all of a sudden they say, all right, now we got a new system and we're just going to throw away the old one. And you can either walk away from all of your work and investment, or you can play along with the new terms that we have where we can steal $2,500 from you as we wish and kick you off. So he says, change the terms of services. He says, change it to something

instead of hundreds of pages, just three things. Number one, you can't use our service to send spam or scam users. Number two, you can't promote violence. Number three, you can't post illegal pornography because there's a lot of pornography on Twitter. I didn't realize this until I was looking for something about Elon Musk last week. And I'm just scrolling because usually I just, I go on there to put stuff out. I have, you know, people that I follow, news organizations that I follow or something like

that. So I've never seen any pornography on there. And then last week I looked at a hashtag and I'm scrolling and it's like, Whoa, what is this? You know? And it's, I couldn't believe it. It was disgusting. And it was like a, some kind of a medical procedure type of, uh, I couldn't believe that they would put that on Twitter. And of course course, you've got a lot of corporations saying, wait a minute, you put my ad right next to that picture? And they're pulling their ads. You talk about a monetary disaster for them. They don't want to be associated with that garbage.

And so stay away from the hashtag stuff. It's not adult entertainment. It's childish. Grow up. Anyway, he said, number two, make Twitter censorship resistant. You're going to have to resist the censorship from the government. He says, here's how he thinks you could do it. He says, you have to ensure censorship resistance by implementing measures

that warrant Twitter can't be censored long term, regardless of which government and regardless of which management. Right. Because he knows that they're going to, you know, they're going to get people to infiltrate the organization. This is how they take it down. Right. The government can censor you by edicts or they can censor by infiltration and do it from the inside. So he says, you got to make it resistant regardless of who the government is or regardless of who the management is. So he says, how do you do that? Well, you got to develop a decentralized

social network protocol, saying the same thing that Jack Dorsey did, right? The backend must run on a decentralized infrastructure. That's going to keep it away from the government manipulating it. Then create a marketplace for algorithms. For example, if you're a snowflake and you don't want content that offends you, you pick another algorithm. There you go. So Zero Hedge says, while a lot of these ideas were inbounds to Musk, where things got really insightful was when he started chatting with his brother, Kimball, about his vision.

And some peculiar cross between social media, blockchain, and direct messaging app, which stores messages forever. And all of it using some token. And why not Dogecoin? Well, again, as Zero Hedge doesn't report it, they just show the emails that are there. But if you keep going on the emails, Musk comes back and says, ah, forget it, that's not really possible

because if you're going to do these processing things, you just can't process the crypto quickly enough to make this a viable option. So it's not technically feasible. We're going to come right back and talk a little bit about what's going on with pharmaceuticals before our guest joins us at the top of the hour. So stay with us. Thank you. You're listening to The David Knight Show. You know, it's disappointing to see some of the lower court cases

that are being allowed to stand by the Supreme Court as they turn away an appeal of the bump stock. You know, it clearly is illegal what they've done. I mean, you cannot, you should not be allowed. Constitution does not support gun control by executive fiat, by the regulatory bureaucracy changing definitions. It's bad enough when Congress violates the Constitution and passes gun control laws in direct opposition

to what the Constitution says to keep them from infringing, even touching it on the edge, because this is a God-given right to be able to protect yourself. But of course, they did it by not listening to the bump stock argument. They also, as I pointed out earlier, um, uh, lawyer Roy sent this to me, you know, about the case of the, the guy who was a licensed concealed carry in Massachusetts, but then they bust him and, um, punish him, giving him a jail time and the rest of this stuff, because he had a concealed gun on him, uh, in Washington DC as he was going to a museum. And there's Supreme court refused to hear that.

The Supreme Court has also refused to hear a challenge to the vaccine mandate for health care workers. Isn't that sad? They declined to hear a challenge from 10 mostly conservative states that sued the Biden administration over its COVID-19 vaccine mandate for health care facilities and workers that get federal funding. In January, the Supreme Court halted enforcement of the Biden mandates, vaccine mandates for large employers, but the court permitted a mandate imposed by the Department of Health and Human Services on people employed at health care facilities if they get Medicare and Medicaid.

See, the lesson here is that if you take Caesar's money, you are Caesar's slave. And that's the principle that the lower courts said. You're taking the money, we get to tell you what to do. It's funny because I said that all along about Trump. It's been one of my major criticisms of Trump and people get very angry with me because I say he could have stopped Whitmer, Newsom, Cuomo, you name it. Any of these people, Republicans as well, like Brad Little, he could have stopped any

of them because he was giving them tens of billions of dollars each, and that was at their personal discretion. But at their personal discretion, they were shutting down businesses on Main Street, left and right. They were putting on all kinds of arbitrary, Simon says, wear the mask, stay six feet apart, all this other nonsense that was there. He could have stopped any and all of that. He could have stopped the lockdown. He could have led people. He could have spoken out against it. He could have held rallies.

But most importantly, he was giving them money, and he continued to give them money. I said, you know, just look at what's happening with the bathrooms. Oh, we're going to cut away, you know, take away your educational funding, your Title IX educational funding, because you are not putting boys in the girls' showers and so forth. The Biden administration countered that the states are relying on out-of-date information about staffing and that the department may set requirements for facilities if they receive federal money.

You take my money, I'm going to tell you what to do. Yeah, people think I'm wrong to criticize Trump for funding the pandemic Great Reset, but that's exactly what happened. And so there's an Air Force Academy instructor who's fired. She was a high-ranking officer. She was, prior to that, she was the fifth woman to graduate from the Air Force Test Pilot School, the first woman to become an aircraft commander and a modern bomber. And she had retired, but then they had hired her to teach in physics because she also had a PhD in particle physics from University of California, Berkeley.

So they hired her as a civilian to teach physics at the U.S. Air Force Academy. And then they fired her because she refused to participate and get an experimental COVID-19 vaccine. She said, and she understood the difference of what was happening with the legal games that were being played by the FDA and Pfizer, the footsie that they were doing back and forth. Oh, let's say that it's approved and so it can be mandated, but we'll say that it's legally distinct from the thing that we've approved and we won't put that there so we can keep our emergency use authorization. She said, all right, well, if it's legally distinct and you only have the emergency use authorization version, then you're trying to force me to take something that is under emergency use authorization.

I'm not going to take experimental drugs, and you can't force me. So they fired her. And so she's talking about this, and she says, we've got to stand up to this tyranny now. We've got to stand up to it now. So in September, they fired her for undermining the chain of command, they said, because she refused the COVID-19 vaccine because it was emergency use, because it was the Corminati, the Spikevax stuff.

And she said the group had focused on lockdowns without any safeguards for mental health. After two cadets died by suicide in isolation, she filed formal inspector general complaints for negligent homicide against the chain of command. So then it became personal and they kicked her out, right? When cadets in August of 2021 came to her for help with the military's experimental vaccine mandate, she informed them of their religious exemption rights as laid out in the military regulations. The cadets told her that her informed consent was limited

to either get the shots or get kicked out. She knows firsthand that all vaccines have risks. She was injured by a vaccine in 1992, resulting in a VA disability. But when she faced her own mandate, she did not request an exemption. In November 2021, she refused to comply with Biden's vaccine mandate for federal employees. She was instructed to hand in her ID card, not to return to campus, not to talk to candidates about exemptions. However, they hired her back from March to May because the mandates on the base were suddenly rescinded and there was no one else qualified to teach the second quarter of the physics course

at the Air Force Academy. Then after they used her to finish that, because they couldn't find anybody else, then in June, she was fired, suspended for undermining the chain of command. She said she believed the suspension was retaliation for the nine Air Force Inspector General complaints that she had filed against the chain of command, including one against the superintendent. The final retaliation in July of 2022 was based on an allegation of conduct unbecoming a federal civilian employee by her supervisor, who portrayed her as a domestic terrorist. Her boss reported that she said, quote, if only I could bring my gun to campus, which she vehemently denies.

And as Children's Health Defense, who has this article, they point out, they said, it's very uncommon for military personnel to refer to weapons as guns. Yet one unverified statement carried enough weight to generate the unsubstantiated statements from staff members that resulted in firing a highly credentialed faculty member. She was fired without due process, and she is pursuing several legal actions. These allegations are a highly unusual charge for a list of uniformed military justice offenses that do not apply to federal civilians and infringement of First Amendment rights. Her contract did not require her to submit vaccine records or to submit to medical testing or medical testing records to her employer.

When asked why the chain of command across all military branches implemented illegal experimental vaccine mandates, she said, I can come to no other conclusion than that this is an intentional takedown of the military from within. From within. I think she's right. Because we had Fauci even talking about how he's going to do that. Remember, how do we get this thing done? How do we get people to take an untested vaccine?

Well, we do it from the inside. We do it with disruption. And we do it iteratively, step by step. And that's exactly what they did do. And this is all an inside job. Everybody talks about 9-11, Twin Towers is an inside job. Well, you know what? The Twin Jabs, that was an inside job as well.

It was from even before it happened. I mean, they've been planning that inside job. It's the other shoe to drop after the three buildings hit by two planes. Two of them only hit by planes. After those fell, the other shoe dropped. It dropped the week after with the anthrax attack. It dropped with the Model State Health Emergency Powers Act. It dropped with the germ games that they practiced on an annual basis for two decades.

And it dropped with all this stuff. It's exactly what has happened. So she also went, she pointed to collusion with the federal government as the FAA, the Federal Aviation Administration. Guidance prohibits pilots, both military and civilian, from taking any new FDA-approved drug until one year after approval. I've talked about this as well. Now, how are they forcing these people to take it?

You're supposed to, as an airline pilot, they say, well, you're going to wait until after it's gone through the 10 years of testing, and then you're going to wait another year or two after it's been used by the general public after the testing, because they understood that the 10-year testing still doesn't catch all of the adverse effects. And so how is it with this? They didn't even wait for the usual approval. Yet federal entities did not prohibit pilots from taking the emergency use authorization

vaccine. As a matter of fact, they pressured them. The FAA generally requires at least one year of post-marketing experience with a new vaccine or new drug before consideration for aeromedical certification purposes. This observation period allows time for uncommon but aeromedically significant adverse effects to manifest themselves. And of course, now there's multiple reports of airline pilots having medical difficulties even while they're on duty, even while flying. All right, we're going to take a break and we're going to connect with our guest, Matt Trawella.

And as a lead up to all this, this story of the lady who stood firm. And all of you, many of you out there listening to us, faced losing your jobs. Some of you did lose your jobs, having your career taken. I want to play this clip just so we're reminded what has been said about us, the threats to us, and to congratulate you for standing firm against them for the last couple of years. Are we going to stop putting up with the idiots in this country and just say, you know, it's

mandatory to get vaccinated. F*** them. F*** their freedom. I want my freedom to live. Justin Trudeau. I mean, I thought he was kind of a cool guy. Then I started to read what he said. This is a couple of weeks ago.

He was or maybe this is September, but he was talking about people who are not vaccinated. He said they don't believe in science. They're often misogynistic, often racist. No, they're not. That was not smart of him at all. Right. He said, but they take up space. And with that, we have to make a choice in terms of a leader as a country.

Do we tolerate these people? It's like, tolerate? Now you do sound like Hitler. If you don't want to get vaccinated, that's your choice. But don't think you can get on a plane or a train besides vaccinated people and put them at risk. We're going to move to a situation where, to protect the health system, we're going to lock out people who are not vaccinated and can be. If you're making the choice not to get vaccinated, then you're making the wrong choice. You're making

the wrong choice. And for safety's sake, and for the back to that point about how much work our nurses have to do as this becomes absolutely a pandemic of the unvaccinated, and we open everything up, it's not going to be safe for people who are not vaccinated to be roaming around the place spreading the virus. That's what they'll be doing. Thanks to your performance, this has been achieved. Those who protest against the vaccination have made no contribution to this. They should not be here. They have no right to be here.

Here are the people who here to thank the people. They have not made any contribution. And I think it is an embarrassment that they still have the voice. Here the justified demonstration of those who need it, who have worked, who are now doing it, who are really burdened. Their work has not made any contribution. Emmanuel Macron said his government's vaccination strategy was to piss off the unvaccinated by continuing to make daily life more difficult. In an interview with the French newspaper La Parisienne,

he is quoted to have said, I'm not about pissing off the French people, but as for the non-vaccinated, I really want is a revolutionary act. You're listening to The David Knight Show. I'm always happy to have Matt on. He's written, I think, one of the best books about what our duty is in terms of opposing tyrants. And also, you know, what is our duty as a Christian? Do we just obey everything that they tell us?

No, no, we don't. That's not what Romans 13 is about. And so he draws the line very effectively. It is packed with information in a very small book. It's the Doctrine of the Lesser Magistrate. And Matt, thank you for joining us. So he draws a line very effectively. It is packed with information in a very small book. It's the Doctrine of the Lesser Magistrate. And Matt, thank you for joining us. Where can people go to get that directly from you so they don't have to give money to Jeff Bezos?

Yeah, that sounds great. They can go to defytyrants.com. And it's that simple, defytyrants.com. And we will add a couple things that Jeff wouldn't give you when you order directly from us. Good, good. Okay. So that's, that's even, it's a win-win situation. They get more if they bought it from Amazon and you get more than if Amazon had sold it for you. So that's a good, good thing. Defy tyrants.com. Uh, let's, let's talk a little bit about, uh, some good news, uh, because, uh, uh, we, we don't have enough good news lately. So there's been some good news because we don't have enough good news lately. So there's been some good news about people standing up for the rule of law against the authorities that are there. But you had a

conference over the weekend, didn't you? Tell us a little bit about that. Yeah, we had a conference in Pennsylvania that I was asked to speak at. I had two awesome topics. I can't wait till they post my lectures on that. One was the role of the magistrates in preserving liberty and the other was the role of the people in preserving liberty that's right yeah they both have a role that's great yeah absolutely and um there was a brother there named alan cohen he's a lieutenant colonel in the air force and they are after him hard to get rid of him. As you know, and as you're speaking about, the people in our military have been treated maliciously by our government. And sadly, the vast majority have capitulated, David. And the men who are standing strong and women are

a very small number of people. And this Lieutenant Colonel is one of them. And of course, he's not a little guy who they've been just getting rid of them who won't comply with this. He's way up there. And so they're having a hard time. And, you know, men like him, David, are so rare in this culture. And so everybody looks out for themselves and their pension and their career and so that's how evil is able to proliferate because everybody puts those things

before stopping the evil he's one of those rare men who's been acting against it for the last year and a half now that's that's great here you know we had a victory with uh some navy seals were the ones who began it and you know these are people who have invested so much time and, of course, the taxpayers, the military have invested a lot in their training, but they've gone through very difficult things. And it'd be very easy for them to capitulate. And yet it's these types of people, like the officer you're talking about and the Navy SEALs who stand up for this and many, many others

who have invested their entire career in this, and yet they're not going to sell out their principles for money standing up to this. And these are exactly the types of people, people who have principles and that stand by their principles and that are Christians and have religious objections to this. Those are the very people that they want out. You know, this officer that I was just talking about, she was saying, this is a deliberate takedown of our military from within. And what they're trying to do is they're trying to get rid of anybody that they can't buy

because, you know, that's, that's what this is really about. Can they buy off your principles? Can they, can they buy your body? Can they buy your soul? And that's what all these mandates were ultimately about. And those are the only people that they want to have left in. And so they're trying to purge out the people who won't sell out their body and their soul to these people. Yeah.

And they did a purging back 10 years ago with the whole don't ask, don't tell and everything that went on there. Pardon me. And now they're doing the same thing with the shot. And they're taking the best of people and getting rid of them. Let me tell you, David, there were numerous people in the congregation where I pastored who lost their jobs for refusing to get the shot in many different professions. And I would call their bosses up. I would tell them, I'm willing to call your boss up.

So I'd call these bosses up. And, of course, it was probably the oddest conversation they've ever thought of in their life of pastors calling me up. And I would try to interpose for the people in my congregation. I mean, what they're doing is odd. I mean, it's odd that you would have to have this conversation with them. It's like you're their employer and you're demanding that they take an experimental genetic code injection. What's the matter with you? Insane, right?

Yeah. Here's what i found talking to them every one of them these bosses would talk about how him or her whichever the case would be were the one of the best if not the best employee they had and then i would point out and you understand why that is it's because they know christ yeah they do their work is unto him that's right they understand their role their duty their function is good men or good women and it's because of their christian faith the very thing you're going to get rid of them for because they don't go along with the shot yes and there would always be this long

silence on the other end when i've made that point so this is exactly what's happening to our military is they're taking out the best men and removing, getting rid of them, the best women, getting rid of them so they can build what? Some little private army that'll act like mere robots and do everything they want and tyrannizing the American people.

That's what it seems like it's headed for. Well, they really are going to build an army of literal robots that are going to make their own kill decisions. And they don't want military who would stand up to that, right? Yeah. That's exactly what they want. Cyborgs. They want super soldiers.

I mean, the documents that are in there, DARPA, they've been working on this for years. And then they want to have the autonomous killer robots, swarms and all the rest of the stuff they don't want to have people who have principle who know how to fight uh against this type of thing that's what it's really about but you know when you made that comment about you know yeah this is our best employee and it's like you know why because they're working uh as unto God they know that God is watching them and that's what you know so they're not going to cut corners when you're not watching, you know, and that's the whole thing. I see that people freak out about, well, we don't want somebody who talks about their

religious beliefs in office. Well, why not? You know, because I would rather have somebody who is, who understands that they're going to stand before God and be accountable to him for what they do, rather than somebody who thinks that they are God, because that's the two choices that you've got. Either you think that you're working, what you're doing is going to be answerable to God,

or you think you don't have to be accountable to anybody. And then the more power and the higher position you get, the worse you become. It corrupts people. Absolutely. That's well said. And a great point. I'm going to add that to my repertoire.

Good. Good. Yeah. Yeah. We need to have, uh, we need to go. You gotta have people who, who see the big picture and,

and, uh, you know, that is, uh, otherwise they're, they're going to be always, you know, if you don't have character, you're always, well, nobody's looking, I'll do this. You know, that's, that's what it turns into.

Absolutely. I, I worked plenty of jobs. I saw plenty of people steal plenty of things and they didn't care. They felt entitled to it because they weren't being paid enough or some nonsense like that. Christian people are wholly different. So what's going on with this officer who spoke at the conference well what's going on with him is they've been pressuring him to get the shot he's refused to get the shot and he did a boatload of investigation into um the legality of doing what they're doing and overwhelmingly both case law, but, um, military law and civil law totally denounce all what they're doing to the men in the military and he's brought this up and pointed this out, even with the guys above them, the three stars and all them and yeah, wrong was wrong to get along yeah there was a there was a case in the navy

where uh he had religious objections to it but he decided that he would go with the legal objections and the fact that uh the fda and uh pfizer and moderna were playing footsie with each other as i just mentioned and say well we're going to you know say that we've approved cormonati and spike vax but they're legally distinct from from what is available in the United States. And what is available in the United States is still under emergency use authorization, which gives us a special kind of legal immunity for any harm that we do to people because the 2005 PrEP Act. And so they've been playing that game.

And one guy in the Navy pointed that out and he had a board of three officers who were hearing his case and they unanimously decided for him and so it that is a clear-cut thing but what we're seeing now matt is just the amazing corruption within the military the amazing corruption of uh the fda and all these people and the and the administration itself when biden knows that the pandemic is over but they're still going to purge people out of the FDA and all these people and the administration itself when Biden knows that the pandemic is over, but they're still going to purge people out of the military. They know what is happening in terms of these experimental drugs, and they don't care. They keep it going. They keep pushing it to children, to pregnant women, and to everybody, even though they can see what is

happening with all this. The corruption is just unbelievable at this point oh pure evil absolutely um when his talk comes out when they publish his talk um i'll make sure i send a link over to you on it david okay i thought his talk was probably the most powerful talk they did him um ted talk style for all the other ones they had me do these two long lectures and then the rest of the men or women who spoke they were all ted talk style so they were 18 minutes or less um his talk is phenomenal and of course i don't know if he can be interviewed you know they put limits on these guys yeah when the military but at least you'll be able to know who he is, what his story is, able to contact him and see if he can come on. It was gripping.

I would love to have him on. Yeah, absolutely. Would love to have, if he can talk, if he can talk. Yes. Yeah. Yes. Uh, or maybe, you know, even if he can't talk, maybe his lawyer would be interested in coming on because sometimes that is a case. Uh, lawyers will tell lawyers will tell their clients do not speak you know for obvious reasons but i can get the lawyers on sometime so that would be good to hear what else there's other good news that's happened what else have you got well as of august um the doctrine of lesser magistrate has sold over a hundred thousand copies now oh excellent yeah and if you know anything about publishing that is a you

that's massive like 97 percent of the books published never even make the money back from publishing them so once you break even you're already doing better than 97 percent of the books that are printed well that's well that's well deserved that is really well deserved because it's an excellent book there's so much information packed in it and it's a quick read it's a skinny book i like to see a skinny book because i've got so much stuff I've got to read. You got to the point, and you made a lot of very powerful points, and it's well-deserved, and I would highly recommend that. We've got to get you up to a million. That's the key thing. This could be another Thomas Paine book. That would be awesome. It's so rewarding to see how the Lord's used that little book

in so many people's lives and impacted them. And we keep seeing fruit from it. The doctrine just keeps growing. The thinking becomes more common. I even had the Daily Beast contact me about a month and a half ago wanting to do an interview. You know what they're all about. Yeah, I know. I've had them contact me for interviews.

I tell them. The expansion of the kingdom of God is incumbent upon interviews with the Daily Beast. That's right. They want to get you on just so they can put words into your mouth. I mean, you know, like, hey, look, I've got, I can write books and I can talk on interviews. And I can make my computer hold on a second. Yeah, that's fine. Yeah. When I, when I look at these people, it's like, uh, no, actually, uh, I talk for three hours a day.

And so there's plenty of stuff there that I say. And I say generally what I mean to say, I occasionally I make a mistake, but I generally say what I mean to say, I don't need you editing my comments and making stuff up about me yeah absolutely yeah and they're dishonest they're malicious yeah we're so that was cool you know that it's gained that much momentum and they told me they said we keep hearing about this more and more that's why we want to interview you because it is growing the doctrine's growing in the thinking so we're bringing christian thought to the realm of civil government and that's huge that's good and the thinking. So we're bringing Christian thought to the realm of civil government. And that's huge.

That's good. And I keep hearing from churchmen. Believe me, there's not like a rush of churchmen, but there's some. I keep hearing from a trickle. They read the book and they're like, you helped me finally bridge the gap between my Christianity and civil government, where I see that my Christianity actually should have something to do regarding civil government. That's a huge bridge for churchmen to get across because of the form of

Christianity we have in this country is so awful and pietistic and, you know, brags on itself how they're not involved in politics to the hurt of the nation, to the corruption of the nation to the corruption of the nation that's right you know you remove all the christian people out of the civil realm wicked men have filled the void and made their worldview law policy and court opinion and we now live in an insane asylum yes i agree so it's been good to see the churchmen too but like this thing's been growing so much David that it's even reached into the

bowels of the draconian LA County at the end of July LA County was going to re-up their mask mandate they put it out that they were going to do so the media covered it like it's a done deal it's going to be happening guess what Four municipalities within the county immediately put out press releases stating that they were going to defy the county if they did this order. It was Pasadena, Beverly Hills, and two other municipalities. I don't remember right now. That's great. And when this became a huge news story there in Southern Cal, and when the county held their meeting two days later the mask mandate was not re-upped showing the inner position of the lesser authorities once again and the goodness they bring for the people when they do their duty and not blithely comply with evil but rather

stand in the gap to stop the evil. That's right. Very encouraging. Yeah, that is very encouraging. And we've had other stories too. The end of July also, we saw Missouri, there were sheriffs putting out press releases saying literally over my dead body, what were they responding to? The Justice Department, our federal government's Justice Department, wanting the names of every concealed carry permit owner in the country. All the states are going along with it. Our state here in Wisconsin handed it right over, right?

Missouri was the only state I know of where they stood in open defiance. There were over 20 sheriffs saying very bold statements of defiance, so much so that it impacted the attorney general of Missouri. And he also stood in defiance and said, you will not get one name from of anyone in the state of Missouri to that information. Excellent. Yeah. The show me state saying, show me your authority to do this, right? Where's your authority? Well, the stand is encouraging. And then just here's a couple more. I'm a much good.

Oh, no, keep going. Yeah. Want to hear the good news? No, that is really, you know, we get discouraged. I was talking earlier about, you know, look at this horrific situation in Pennsylvania. You got two horrible candidates because, you know, nobody got involved to stand behind the one good candidate that they had in the primary time. So now we got two horrible candidates. One of them is going to go to the Senate.

One of them is saying, hey, you know, I want to end gun ownership, not just, you know, banning the sale of certain things, but we're going to confiscate stuff. And so, you know, this is the kind of situation that we get involved in. People look at it and they despair. And I keep telling everybody, but focus on your local sheriff and these other things. You can have a lot more of an effect there. They have power. They can interpose. And, you know, so don't despair.

There's still stuff that can be done at the local level. And that's why it's important. This is very good news. Go ahead. Give us some of that. Yeah. And Pennsylvania, being out there, you know their legislature just voted to accept homosexuals earlier this year and remove off the books their anti-sodomy laws. And they're just like, it's crazy out there.

Oh, yeah. And I'm from the midwest and whenever i go to the coast you know they live in the midst of it they don't realize how bad it it's actually worse on either coast than it is in the middle of the state a middle of the country oh yeah um so we have to continue to fight and take action i can't believe the evil that good men are up against over there on the East Coast, talking with them all the time. It's overwhelming. But here's another thing that's happened. Alberta, up in Canada, we've sold thousands of the doctrine to Canadians.

Of course, you know they've been tyrannized into the ground up there. Oh, yeah. ground up there. The book has spread far and wide, and we've begun to see acts of interposition over the last several months, especially. And the biggest we've seen now is Alberta. Alberta is actually a province of Canada, of the federal government up in Canada. Not like America. I always mock and say, states are not meant to be mere provinces of the federal government. States are different. But Alberta is actually a province, and yet they're standing in interposition against Trudeau. Trudeau put together an executive order to basically confiscate everybody's gun on the planet up there in canada and all the other provinces are going along with it at

this point the only province that is not is alberta if people i think i think it's up to i think saskatchewan and and another one has joined now i think it's three yeah i think i think i reported that uh earlier this week that's now up to three alberta was the first one i think it's now three that are opposing this confiscation and he did that he did that two years ago and it's already past the deadline that you're supposed to turn in your guns and now they're saying as this is starting to uh get imminent and he's talking about using the rcmp they're saying nope not going to do it right yeah yeah alberta told them told the rcmp to stand down ignore, and understand these are federal officers.

And the province is telling them, you're not doing that in our province. And going around getting people's guns and pressuring people and all that. But that's great news to hear. And that's what you hope to see, that when one magistrate stands in defiance, others will join in, just like you're pointing out. That's very encouraging. I've got another one along those same lines. And this is a story about a sheriff who was in Montana who stood up for his people. And it was RCMP who came into Montana and he was at a gun show.

And he was taking pictures of people's licenses and stuff like that. And, you know, he wasn't dressed like Dudley Do-Right. So somebody called the sheriff, you know, to find out who this guy is. And there was another guy with him that was working with him. He was from the ATF. And so it was the ATF and the RCMP, you know, federal officers, coming there at a local gun show, taking pictures and stuff, and the sheriff ran them off. And so there you go. There's another example of interposition.

This is a sheriff taking on federal officers from two countries who are there doing things illegally. That was a great story. I love that story. Oh, praise God. Yeah. I'll have to get the link from you later on that one. That is tremendous.

People need to hear these stories because overwhelmingly we know the vast majority of magistrates blithely comply still. That's right. So when you hear of men of exceptional character who are willing to take a stand, uphold their oath, do their duty in the sight of Christ and their office, it's encouraging. And it's not only encouraging to us as the people, it's encouraging to other magistrates who are kind of on the precipice. Should I, or shouldn't I to tip them to do right. That's right.

And to take a stand and not to cower like most of them do. That's right. So yeah, I try to give them attention and even get them on if they're willing to come on and talk, you know, but I always give them a shout out when they, when they do stuff like that, because you're right, Uh, other officers need to hear that and understand that they're not alone because that's one of the ways that they, they, they deceive us, you know, just like we saw the vaccines. Well, I guess I'm the only person who had this, uh, who got myocarditis because they tell me that it's really rare, whatever.

I'm the only one who had a family member who dropped dead after getting it. And then they find out that they're not the only one. Yeah, absolutely. And I'm note on the, when it comes to law enforcement, member who dropped dead after getting it and then they find out that they're not the only one yeah absolutely and on note on the when it comes to law enforcement if people go to our website defytyrants.com they can see our latest drop card these are business size cards very cheap on one side it addresses the leos law enforcement officers very short statement on the other side it just has the doctrine of lesser magistrate defined and then as our website to fight tyrants there's so many people we know from coast to coast to do ministry on the streets out at you know abortuaries or out

at you know drag queen gatherings you know they're doing this yeah so they come into contact with law enforcement all the time and now they have these cards like we've done a lot with law enforcement but we haven't even scratched the surface prior to this we got the card because it is something that anybody can hand to any law enforcement officer when i was in pittsburgh speaking two and a half weeks ago um they um we went out to the death camp police were there and i was giving them our little drop card and one of the police officers came up to me he's like you know this looks massively interesting and i said well i wrote a book on it and he goes really he goes what was the name of the book and i told him he's looking it all up and that someone else was

talking to me while i'm talking to him and he's he said um he said i'm buying this book this looks so interesting and i said well don't buy it you didn't buy it did you i said he said no but i'm going to i mean i go don't let me run to my car i want to give you a copy he goes well you're going to lose a sale i'm honored to give it to you as a magistrate and And so I gave him two until I'm given to one of his, you know, that's good. This drop card is meant you have to understand, you know, law enforcement is the muscle of the state. And most of these guys think they are nothing but robots for the state.

This doctrine shows them a much larger picture regarding their office. And David, the biggest number of people I have of piles of letters from magistrates who've thanked me for my book has been from sheriffs that you were just talking about. And they all talk about, this is the most important book I ever read for my office. If they're not a Christian, usually if they're a Christian, they'll say, most important book I ever read for my office. If they're not a Christian, usually if they're a Christian, they'll say, most important book I ever read other than the Bible for my office. That is encouraging to hear. Once again, we're bringing Christian thought into the civil realm. That is so needed. Well, you know, Matt, I think that a lot of people who, I think there's a small

number of people who go into law enforcement because they want to bully other people. But I think most people go into it because they've got this protective thing. They want to protect and help people. You know, in the same reason, same way that you got people who will go into EMS or they become firefighters or something, right? You know, you have some bad firefighters who will become arsonists, that type of thing. But typically, people who go into these types of things do it because they've got a protective instinct that was at least there at some point in time. That might have been driven out of them by this subservient hammering, being told by their supervisors in the institution, no, you have to do exactly what I say, even when you don't agree with it. And even if you think that it's illegal, you got to take my orders and that type of thing.

And so, you know, they can kind of get put into that box. But I think when they see the bigger picture, when they see the historical picture, where they see the, you know, the Christian picture behind all this stuff, then that is a real freeing thing for them, and it frees them up to be what they always wanted to be, and that is to protect people, I think. Now, that is a great point you made, because I've talked to so many officers who are jaded,

and they'll talk to you once they know you're a minister, you're standing there, and they'll talk about precisely what you just you're a minister you're standing there and they'll talk about precisely what you just said that is why they got involved they wanted to make a difference they wanted to protect they wanted to stop evil and they said that isn't what this is they'll be in eight years 10 years 12 years and they just it's just a job to them now yeah and um so it is important that we bring this thinking to them. And I love your point about history because history speaks to people.

Yes. Yes. Yeah. I think too, of, of, I don't know if you're familiar with it, but you know,

Frank Cervico, most people know that because of the movie with Al Pacino, but there was an even better case. It's more recent. And as a police officer at New York, his name was Adrian schoolcraft and his father was a cop. He wanted to be a cop. He wanted to protect people.

He went to work there in New York city and he found out that it's simply about trying to hit people up for fines and harassing them and all this other kind of stuff. He didn't want to be a part of that. And so he started recording what his supervisors were doing, started wearing a mic and recording it. And eventually they found out that he was doing that. And eventually they went to his apartment and they kidnapped him.

Essentially, uh, the guy who was a police chief there in New York, and they took him to an insane asylum. His father started investigating and he had had another camera that he kept for his own protection that was up on the bookshelf. And his father saw what they had done, but then he had to find him in the insane asylum,

but they did all kinds of things to him. They told him on Halloween, just go out and arrest people, bring them back. And we'll figure out what to charge them with later on stuff like that. And we rebelled against that. And we rebelled against giving people tickets who were, uh, you know, for, for just people who were banned from smoking in there and their barbershop, for example, so they, if they want a cigarette, they'd step outside their barbershop and to have a smoke.

And then the cops would get them for loitering, you know, that type of thing. He says, I'm not going to do that. So to punish him, they put him on a beat. They had him walking a beat. And he said, I've never been happier because that's what I wanted to do. I got to know the people in the community. I got to protect them and all the rest of this stuff, you know, that was, and that's what, that's what Serpico was about, right? Frank Serpico.

And he said, you know, you're always going to have bad people in an institution, but the question is, will the institution purge those bad people out or will it embrace that corruption and become corrupt itself? And so that really is what is happening. And your book frees these people. If you get enough of them, if you get a critical mass you really can change things and that's why it's important for them to understand the the bigger picture i think absolutely i'm going to look up his story because that's the first time i've heard about it yeah adrian schoolcraft adrian schoolcraft in new york he eventually had to go into hiding you know i tried to get him for interviews but he's he's hiding now from the cops i mean he's had threats on his life by these people just like they did with serpico you know yeah and the thing you said about them deciding

what to just bring them in then we'll figure out what to charge them with yeah um many years ago now it's been almost 20 years actually it has been 20 years i was um beat up i had to go to the hospital afterwards for medical attention beat up by police down in Illinois, in Bloomington, Illinois. And after they beat me up for no reason at all, we were out doing ministry, speaking up for our pre-born neighbor. They spent an hour while I was in the cell and they're outside the cell and they're on phones with other officers. What are we going to charge them with? What are we going to charge them with? Coming up with nothing because i did nothing and they beat me up badly and then um they took me to trial i was looking at four years in prison and ended up with a four-day trial

i was found not guilty and um so these things happen yes in police departments across the country. Routinely, my lawyer did an investigation of brutality in that town. One guy had been beaten to death in prison, in jail, two months earlier. Now, understand your average thug doesn't walk around with video cameras with them. We all had video cameras. It was only the video cameras that saved my butt, David, was because they didn't know about the video cameras, all that we had, showing them beating me up and me doing nothing.

And they lie right through their teeth. The officers got on the stand, lied right through their teeth, had no compunction whatsoever, didn't care what happens to you as a person. They wanted me to cop a deal. I told them, I'm not copping a deal. You guys did wrong. I didn't do wrong. Well, you're going to look at four years in prison if you don't cop a deal, because we're going to let you go with just a year of probation. And I said, I'm a Christian man. My life is in Christ's hands. Whether I'm free or bond, I'm in his hands. hands so it's like i'm not going along with this under your intimidation and um lord delivered me out of it but a lot of times people think that doesn't

happen or it sounds too far-fetched it happens commonly oh yeah with police departments much corruption yes thank you for pointing that out and there's a lot of corruption again around uh the abortion stuff right which is not surprising you know if these people are willing to rip apart without even any anesthetic uh a baby uh they're willing to do anything to adults i mean just look at what just happened to uh that guy matt hulk um and uh you know his family getting swat teamed and all that kind of stuff because he interposed himself between a guy who got aggressive against his son while he was there at the abortion clinic.

So they make it about, oh, well, you violated the FACE Act. You have intimidated somebody from going in and getting abortion. It wasn't about that at all. But there's a political element about that because this is something in Pennsylvania they want to, they think they've got a winning issue with abortion and maybe they do. And so they want to make an issue out of, out of that. And they've, uh, you know, put him on the spot, but it's, uh, that got a lot of attention and that particular one may blow up in their face. I hope it does. Yeah, absolutely. Well, the last story I have is about Edwardsville, Kansas. So we've gone from

LA County, massive population to Edwardsville, Kansas, less than 5,000 people. They're showing that doctrine's making inroads everywhere, every level, every sphere, which is encouraging. But Edwardsville just last last week, in the state of Kansas, and by the way, they're butchering children no differently in Kansas than they were prior to the Dobbs opinion being released. But they have this statute there, a state statute that grants immunity to all teachers, health workers, if they show minors something that if we showed them, we would be arrested for. Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah. That's the amazing thing, isn't it? You know, it's like they send people, well, not the new Supreme Court justice says she doesn't think people should be going to jail for child pornography. But, you know, these people show pornography to kids in schools and it's fine or in libraries or whatever. It's fine. That's what it is. Yeah.

And so like their municipality years ago and every municipality in Kansas writes law similar to that and gets who they do it to be asked of the municipality organization. Like I'm not familiar with our municipality organization here in Wisconsin, but I am with the county organization. They're all leftists. And what they do is they show the people who are at these local and county governments how to govern and give them model legislation. And don't tell them the power and authority they do possess. It's all just to keep it from the federal government to the state government, down to the county and local government, to embed the evil down in the fabric of society.

And so this mayor of this town, she starts reading this ordinance, and she's like, that's messed up. Why would we grant immunity to these people who are doing the same thing that a guy, if he did it on the street what because there's quote-unquote experts or something so it's like so what they ended up doing what just last week was rewriting their ordinance in open defiance of the state law regarding this matter of sexuality and what they are allowed to show to the children in Edwardsville. That is a great act of intercession. As you know, David, when it comes to the two biggest national sins we have,

the murder, shedding of innocent blood, murder of the pre-born, and the proliferation of sodomy, homo sex, across our nation, we'll see interposition on other things like guns and masks and stuff like that. But when it comes to those two, magistrates have been AWOL on that. And so to see this from Edwardsville, I pray it lights a fire that spreads and just spreads and spreads. Because these magistrates, how many times have you gone to a school board meeting to speak or a municipal meeting or a county meeting? And what do they all do?

The magistrates all sit there, but we're mandated by law to do this. Okay, but it's evil. It's immoral. It's unjust. It's wrong. But we're mandated. We have to do it.

And you're just like, no, actually you don't. And your actual duty is interposition to stand against the evil, not help it proliferate in society. That's right. So encouraging to see what they did. And, you know, you said you spoke about our duty as individuals to interpose, you know, and I think that really is what we have seen with the people in the military, with people in their private jobs, with nurses and doctors and others who said, well, you can fire me if you need to, but I'm not going to take the mandate because you're not allowed to do that. And then coming back and suing them for what they have done to them, but refusing to go along simply because it is a mandate and simply because there's money attached to it.

Because that's really what these school boards are doing when they say, well, we're told that we have to do it. No, it's because you're going to get money cut off if you don't follow the orders that's what this is really about it's really about uh their love of money that's the root of all evil and they've been bought out they've sold out their fellow man for 30 pieces of silver and uh that's that's what it's ultimately about but it really is and we're seeing this massive pushback from a lot of people who have said, we're not going to participate in this. We're not going to be intimidated. And we're not going to be bought out by this.

We've talked about the good things that have been happening and about people interposing. But you know what we haven't talked about, Matt, is the doctrine itself. And I've had you on in the past. And I know that many people in the audience have heard it. But I think they'd enjoy hearing it again, and there are some other people who haven't heard it. So let's give people the viewpoint of the gist of what the doctrine of the lesser magistrates is about. Sure, the doctrine is simply that when the higher-ranking civil authority makes unjust or immoral law, policy, or court opinion, the God-given right and duty of the lesser authority, is not by compliance. Rather, it's what we call interposition.

They're to interpose, use their lawful office to interpose against the evil of the superior civil authority, and if necessary, to actively resist the superior civil authority. And that's something that is a big thing in terms of, we saw that happening significantly with the Reformation, but we also, you have in your book, you have even examples of this going back to Rome, pre-Christian. Talk about that. Yeah, showing that it's natural to man. We have

plenty of examples in Scripture, plenty of examples of history from the time of Christ till now of the doctrine being demonstrated. It wasn't formalized as a doctrine by Christian men until 1550 in Magdeburg, Germany. Yeah, we see the doctrine demonstrated in non-Christian, non-Jewish nations. And I start out my book with one of those stories, you know, with the emperor of Rome, Caligula, and the interposition that took place there by a governor, the governor of Palestine, Publius Petronius. It is a phenomenal story that everyone should read. And we see that in numerous other places, even Trajan, Emperor Trajan. He was giving a sword to one of his subordinates. And he said, upon giving him the sword, use this sword against my

enemies if I give righteous commands. But if I give unrighteous commands, use it against me. That's the doctrine in a nutshell. The lesser authorities obey the superior authority when they're doing right and acting properly. And how do we know if they're acting right and doing properly? Because of the law and word of God. And I think we're seeing that more than ever that people are realizing when you remove the law of God and his word, what kind of nonsense they're able to get away with, because that was the objective standard by which all men and all governments of men were held accountable to and judged by whether the laws they were making were just or unjust, good or bad, and those types of things. So now that that objective standard has been removed, you see how lawless the governments have been. They just make

law up out of thin air, out of mere whim. Good becomes evil, evil becomes good, and you live in an insane asylum now at this point. So it's extremely important for the lesser authorities to understand their duty in the sight of Christ, that when the superior authority does wrong or does evil, their duty is to interpose against the evil. And the duty of the people is to prod their lesser authorities to do right, and to assure them if they do do right, that they will stand with them four square, with their persons, with their property, with their prayers, both publicly and privately. That needs to happen now more than ever, because you see what we're in the midst of right now. And these tyrants aren't going away.

Some people think, well, it seems like it's getting better. Election year. They're biding their time until their Biden time. It's Biden. They're biding their time until after the election, and they've left all of their presumed powers in place. They've just put a pause on it, and they're going to come back big time. You know, one of the things I remember before I got you on, actually, uh, there were a lot of, uh, high profile Christians who had, uh, radio shows and things like that. And, uh, I had, um,

people tell me about, uh, you know, Todd Friel was pushing real hard, uh, that you do whatever the government says, you know, even if it's, you know, this was written by people who were suffering under persecution, Roman persecution. I said, whatever the government says, you do that. And I said, no, that's not what Romans 13 says. And I opposed that. And I called him out by name because he did it for like three or four days. Interestingly enough, after I found it, you know, after his first program about that, people started sending him information about your book.

And he says, I know about the doctrine of the lesser magistrate, but, you know, and so I said, no, it's not that. I lost a friend over that. But, you know, the reality is, is that that's not what Romans 13 says. Talk a little bit about that. Address that. Yeah. By the way, that was the first time I was exposed to your ministry and to your show was you were responding to Todd Friel.

Oh, really? He sent me the clip of that. Oh. And I was like, who is this guy this is awesome but yeah todd did know about the doctor unless you're married interesting story is his top video man who worked for him and todd's got like 26 employees or something from what i understand and um so he um he contacted me because he was totally bothered about how Todd's teaching all the people on the staff to go along with this, how he was bothered that he's helping publish this kind of thing. Yeah.

He's teaching everybody to comply and obey. If the governor tells me to put pinwheels on my head to go into the. Yes. That was what he literally said. If they tell you to put pinwheels on your head, you got to put pinwheels on your head. What? That doesn't have any moral issue to it.

You know, when the, when the government tells you to do something evil, then it really does become a clear cut case. Right. Like there's no limits to their authority. And, um,

it was crazy. So, um, that guy actually couldn't continue in good conscience and he's the guy who puts together our little videos now oh good at defy tyrants little one to five minute videos which people can see by the way we have a defy tyrants channel at rumble that's the one we push the most we also have a defy tyrants channel at um youtube We don't push that as much because they've censored us numerous times. But so Romans 13, yeah, that is used by not only the churchmen, but the magistrates loved Romans 13.

Oh, the Nazis loved it. Oh, yeah, they did. And I've been where we've spoken up for the pre-born and interposed the doors of abortion clinics and here's cops quoting Romans 13. I've stood on public streets where the cops want us to leave the streets and then they quote to me Romans 13. Well, they've quoted it to the wrong person because I point out to them exactly what it does teach and it does not teach unlimited obedience to the state um just look at the passage those who assert that it's teaching unlimited obedience to state are doing what we call an act of eisegesis they're reading into

scripture something that's not there ice is the greek word for into you don't want to do eisegesis you want to do exegesis. Ek is the Greek word out. You want to draw out the original intended meaning, not assert your own thinking onto the text. In fact, there's not one verse in all of the Bible that says we're always to obey the civil authorities. And that brings you to the second point of proper hermeneutics. Proper hermeneutics, the hallmark of it is scripture interprets scripture. Scripture with a big S interprets scripture with a small S. In other words, when you look at a particular passage or verse, scripture with a small S,

you have to look at it in the light of the whole of God's word, scripture with a big S. Scripture with a big S interprets scripture with a small S. And when you do that, you see all these places, both in the Old Testament and the New Testament, where the people of God do not obey the civil authorities, and God blesses and commends them for their obedience to him and standing in interposition against the evil that the civil authorities are trying to do. And many examples, the Hebrew midwives told to murder by Pharaoh. They did not do it. Daniel told he couldn't pray to God. He prayed to God anyway. And that is the standard that Christian men have followed, those two examples, down through the ages. And that's simply that when the state commands that which God forbids, or forbids that which God commands,

we obey God rather than man. That's right. Extremely important. And this whole idea that a lot of them have now too is unlimited obedience. That is the overwhelming majority of churchmen teach that. There is nothing they would not obey or convince in the name of love, a distorted love. Once you divorce the ethic of love from scripture, David, you can use love to justify anything, even two men or two women marrying. Love has to be defined by the law and word of God. That's how we know how to love our neighbor. That's right. You can use love thy neighbor to

push abortions on billboards, which is what Gavin Newsom, can you believe that? Yeah. How cynical that is. It's's amazing but they use that to push the uh the the vaccines to to kill people and to cripple people so why not use it to push abortion i mean it makes sense i guess from his standpoint yeah crazy yeah so romans 13 does not teach on the limit of obedience to the state um the scriptures actually teach um that the state. The scriptures actually teach that the state has limits in the authority they possess. And of course, living in America, or also whatever state you live in, the U.S. Constitution, your state constitution, limits the authority of magistrates, just as scripture limits their authority. So when they go outside the limits of their authority, then they need to be opposed and

resisted in order to get them to understand you're not God. That's right. And your authority is not unlimited. That's right. So and it's actually delegated to you from God, the authority you do possess, therefore you have a duty to govern according to his rule. Extremely important to teach people these things so they understand, because right now, because we've removed that objective standard of God's law, people don't even know when tyranny is biting the end of their nose. They're blind to it, and the state can get away with mass evil on the people. I said at the very beginning of all this stuff,

I had been following Fauci and the CDC and the vaccine narratives, and I knew how they had covered up for harmful vaccines and things like that. And I knew the annual tricks that they played with the flu and all the rest of the stuff. And I knew that they had been practicing to do this very thing for 20 years on an annual basis. And so I knew a lot of stuff like that. And, and it, and it did surprise me that they were able to fool a lot of people who had not kept up with that because that was not necessarily well known. But it bothered me that churches were closing down. And then eventually the churches started to realize after a month or so, well, this isn't really what they said it was going to be.

They closed down because they had believed the hype, uh, that was coming out there. And so some of them closed down meaning well, but then after it became obvious, you know, started, it had always been obvious to me, but after they started to wake up to it, then a lot of them started falling back to this. Well, we just got to do whatever government says type of thing. And I said at that time, I said, the people who have been saying, you know, Rome is 13, you obey the government, no matter how bad it is, you know, pinwheels on your head or whatever. Even if it's immoral, you obey them.

And I said those, and then they'll put in the caveat, unless they tell you something that is going to conflict with God's law. And I said, no, you watch. When they tell them they can't go to church, they won't go to church. And that's exactly what happened. These people caved. And the ones who continued to obey these lockdown rules were the same people that have been telling everybody that interpretation of Romans 13. And as you point out, you've got to take it in the context. If you look at the context of the passage, it's clear what's going on. If you look at the context of overall scripture, it's clear what's going on.

But if you take something out of context, they use it as a pretext. And that's the way these people have been using this. And that's why it's so important for people to understand and to not get gaslighted and propagandized by these people into doing something that is wrong. And that's the key thing. And that's one of the things they'll say is another thing, those who want us to always obey. They'll say that, okay, they were under nero and the roman government look how evil that government is so surely we need to obey everything our government says well what they don't understand is just um good grammar proper hermeneutics um paul was not there descriptively. He was writing there prescriptively.

When you're writing descriptively, like Nero would have been mentioned. The Roman government would have been mentioned. They're not. The reason they weren't is because he wasn't writing descriptively. He was writing prescriptively about how things should be, how they're meant to be. That's how he was writing. A government that you follow is an agent of God for good. You know, was Nero, was Hitler, were they agents of God for good? No. Right. The ministers of Magdeburg who first formalized the doctrine of lesser magistrate

called this idea that we're always to obey the civil authorities because that was a big thinking amongst churchmen back then during the reformation too a huge debate and um they called it an invention of the devil i said yeah that sums it up really good because it really is because you're actually aiding evil men to commit acts of tyranny and evil against people in the nation. It's wicked. And God doesn't countenance that. They've abused their authority, and therefore they have to be called to account on it. And one of the things we do as individuals is, at times, we have to actually disobey them ourselves. And so we're willing to take upon ourselves the suffering they dish out. That's a goodness to society as a whole because of the fact that we obey God first, not man. We benefit society as a whole in stopping evil from proliferating in the land.

When it comes to the lesser magistrate, they use their lawful office to interpose, to stand in defiance. And sometimes they end up suffering for it it's not always a great turnout in the end yeah um and that's why um uh suetonius said that when the lesser authority um defies the superior authority he's taking the wolf by the ears that's what he said because he has that you better consider what all is going on, you know, when he makes this stand. That's right. Yeah, you really do have the wolf by the ears. That's true. But, you know, the thing is, and this is why it's so important in the Christian aspect of it, is that Christians have a different perspective. You know, we have the fulcrum in our life is

placed outside of our life. And so that's why we don't have to worry about taking the wolf by the ears. We don't have to worry about this mysterious virus that you can't see and you can't see the effect of it. We don't have to fear that. I mean, even the faithful Christians in centuries past would continue to do what they knew was their duty to do. They would continue to do that even in the face of a real plague, where you see people, the bodies piling up. We didn't see any of that stuff happening, but we just shut everything down and kept it shut.

It's just absolutely amazing. It is, and you're absolutely right. It's our relationship with Christ. It's just absolutely amazing. It is, and you're absolutely right. It's our relationship with Christ. It's our theology. That's what gives us the grit to stand in the face of tyranny and do right by him. And it's the only thing. And that's what makes the difference. That's right.

And it's been encouraging to see some people do it. It's been discouraging to see how few people have done it through this thing. But that's where we are. And again, the Doctrine of the Lesser Magistrate, people can find that at defytirants.com. Thank you so much for joining us, Matt. I appreciate it. It's great talking to you always. Good news to hear that.

I always love joining with you. Thank you very much. I appreciate it. Before we go, I want to thank the people who have left tips here. Boss Chavez, thank you very much for the tip. And Harps, thank you very much. Harps says, David, look at what just happened with the AFL. I imagine that's Australian Football League.

Essendon. I don't, I'm about as well versed on American sports as I am on Australian sports. I don't follow either one of them, but I think that's Australian. Essendon. And the CEO who was appointed and then sacked for his Christian church beliefs about gays and abortions. They're coming after all faiths. Yes. They're coming after all faiths because they will establish themselves as the sole authority about anything.

I mean, when you look at it, I imagine the day will come. It won't be that far off where even if you propose a different kind of electric vehicle, one that is not going to be operated off of batteries, but one that's going to be operated off of a fuel cell or something, that'll be heretical and you'll be punished for that because they have one particular thing that has to be out there. I mean, we've already seen it with medicine. Why wouldn't we see it with transportation, right? You will take the vaccine and only the vaccine. Or, you know, we'll give you a remdesivir.

But you better not talk about any other treatment. Nothing else is allowed. We will criminalize that. We will censor that. And we'll have more to say about censorship and criminalizing of speech tomorrow because I've got a lot of stuff here that I didn't get to today. But thank you so much for joining us. And that's our program.

Have a good day. The Common Man They created common core to dumb down our children. They created common past to track and control us. Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing. And the communist future. They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary. But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God that is what we have in common that is what they want to take away

their most powerful weapons are isolation deception intimidation they desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us. It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide. Please share the information and links you'll find at thedavidknightshow.com. Thank you for listening. Thank you for sharing.
