As the clock strikes 13, it's Friday, the 24th of may year of our lord 2024 well they continue to push to nudge to coerce is coming up next and then they will be banning and mandating this bird flu stuff these people are relentless and shameless in terms of pushing these lies. Oh, we got another human, and now we had all the vaccine companies
Starting point is 00:02:27 jump like 12% to 18% yesterday because it was announced that they found another human with bird flu. So we're going to begin by talking about the pandemic stuff. We're also going to take a look at the spy satellite that Elon Musk is doing for the CIA. Yeah, that's right. He's got tens of thousands of the Internet Starlink stuff, which is, you know, the Internet was set up to spy on us.
Starting point is 00:02:50 But this is more specific. But we have Eric Peters also joining us in the third hour. Lots to talk to Eric about. It's been a while since I talked to him. Looking forward to it. Stay with us. We'll be right back. Well, I want to begin with some real positive news. This guy should be an example to us all.
Starting point is 00:03:28 And we've talked about him before. I've talked about him before. Years ago when this was happening, do you remember the New Jersey gym owner who stood up and kept standing up to these people, refused to close his gym when the governor demanded it? And remember how draconian the measures got? He has just now been cleared of over 80 charges, just now. But they stole a lot of money from him.
Starting point is 00:03:52 They've damaged his business. He hasn't even gotten the capital that they emptied out of his bank account. They emptied out his bank account. You want to talk about the truckers in Canada? Yeah, that was an outrage, wasn't it? This guy got everything taken out of his bank account, and this has been four years since they took it out, and he's hanging tough. This guy's got a backbone of steel, and we're going to need that as well because they're going
Starting point is 00:04:15 to be bringing up this bird flu stuff again. A New Jersey gym owner who bravely defied the tyrannical lockdown measures instituted in New Jersey by the Democratic Governor Murphy there. It's been cleared of all 80 plus charges that are put against him beginning in 2020. Atlas Gem owner Ian Smith. Does that sound familiar? We talked about that. Atlas Gem to keep his business open after the Garden State's biggest vegetable, Phil Murphy, issued an arbitrary order to shut down all but essential businesses. He was non-essential. Remember that?
Starting point is 00:04:51 The Trump term? Hillary said we were deplorable. Trump said we're non-essential. Gave money to the governors to shut down the non-essential businesses. That's one of the things that really, really got to me. Because I've been in a situation where we had a small business and we were shut down by the only time we ever shut down by a storm. Power was gone from neighborhoods. When we finally got it back in one of the neighborhoods of one of the stores,
Starting point is 00:05:16 we opened up and we ran it and people were coming in. The cops came in and shut us down. And Walmart was open right across the street. And I said, what about them? Oh, they're essential. It's like, don't you talk to me about being essential. You're not essential cops. Like you are not essential. You're taking out to the constitution. At one point, the gym faced a fine of over $15,000 for every day. I remember this and that they remained open. Some of the charges also carry the threat of up to six months in jail, said his attorney.
Starting point is 00:05:48 In July 2020, Smith and his business partner, Frank Trombetti, were arrested as police boarded up their gym. They were charged with fourth degree contempt. Yeah, let me see. You know, we've got these Masons. They've got like 33 degrees, don't they? Can I get a 33rd degree of contempt how can i express my utter contempt for people like trump and murphy and trudeau and macron and bojo and all of these tyrants i just can't express my contempt strongly enough. I want a 33rd degree contempt charge. Obstruction and violation of a disaster control act.
Starting point is 00:06:33 In January, 2021, the governor seized all, all of the gems bank account draining it of $165,000 without warning, without permission. While the duo was engaged in litigation with the state. And again, you know, you look at $165,000. That's a lot of money to most of us. But that's what you, you know, when you've got a business that's, if you've ever, when you bought a house, right,
Starting point is 00:07:02 the amounts of money that start going through there pretty soon, if you're building, especially if you're building it, because this is going on, you're writing checks as things are going on. Pretty soon, it's like, oh, yeah, we're dealing in thousands and tens of thousands of dollars when you're writing the checks and going into debt and all the rest of the stuff. But, you know, that's the way business runs. It just, you have to have that amount of capital comes in and it goes out pretty quickly as well. And if the government comes in, it all goes out right away. Those charges hung over these guys' heads for four years, said their lawyer. In the midst of the battle, Smith declared, this will not stop us. We will not stand down.
Starting point is 00:07:40 We will continue to fight this fight because we know, based on what is outlined in the Constitution, that when we get to the right courts and in front of a judge who respects the Constitution, we will win this case. It took four years, but that happened. Never give up, and don't give up on the Constitution either, because the the constitution even if it's not enforced it shows everybody what liars they are the constitution is there like um yeah it's there like google gemini's pictures of um you know where they changed uh all these historical figures in Europe to blacks or Asians or women or whatever. Just that kind of stuff stands there as a giant marker of their fraud. And so does the Constitution.
Starting point is 00:08:36 It's not as obvious as a picture. You've got to actually read it and think a little bit, but it's pretty clear. It's not very complicated. You don't need anybody to interpret it for you. It's written in English. We all speak English. Well, not all of us anymore, but most of pretty clear. It's not very complicated. You don't need anybody to interpret it for you. It was written in English and we all speak English. Well, not all of us anymore, but most of us do.
Starting point is 00:08:50 I don't need a judge to interpret the constitution. The language is plain. And so is the history of it. Anyway, he said, and we will make sure that no governor, no government official will ever wield these powers again, he said.
Starting point is 00:09:07 But they're about to do it. We all have to be Ian Smiths. It's coming up, folks. They're going to do it again and again and again. In various ways, slightly different ways, but they're going to keep doing it until some of these other people go to jail. Smith remained true to his word, has emerged victorious. He recounted the long legal battle against authoritarian government on his Twitter.
Starting point is 00:09:34 He said all of the 80-plus municipal citations of violations of a governor's order, it's not law, of public nuisance, of disturbing the peace, and operating without a license against us. All those have been dropped by the courts with prejudice. That means that they cannot open it up again. Once the judge did that, said, OK, you're not going to retry this either. These are gone. No ability to revisit or to refile.
Starting point is 00:10:02 Special thanks to our fearless attorneys, John McCann and Gincarlo Gione. Some of the most high-profile attorneys around the country who ran our case knowing that it would be a long, hard road and would make them darkest days of the storm, have not flinched, never once cared about being in front of cameras to gain notoriety from their work. And then he said this. These are the words we live by. Nobody is coming to save you. Nobody is coming to save you. Spit on your hands. Save yourself.
Starting point is 00:10:45 Hoist the black flag. No quarter. That should be our attitude. We don't give Trump a pass. We don't give Biden a pass. We don't give any of these congressmen, senators, Republican, Democrat. We don't give any of them a pass. None of them.
Starting point is 00:11:04 I don't care if the other guy, oh, he's worse than our SOB. Well, guess what? I'm not voting for an evil guy and you shouldn't either. You want to fix the elections? Fix it with ballot access. Fix it with debate access. Happiness. We all know what it feels like, but sometimes it doesn't come easy. I'm Garvey Bailey, the host of Happy Enough, a new podcast from The Globe and Mail about our pursuit of happiness. We know people want to live more fulfilling and positive lives, but how do we actually do that?
Starting point is 00:11:41 Is there a happiness code to crack? From our relationship with technology to whether money can really buy you happiness, we'll hear from both real people and experts to demystify this thing we're all searching for and hopefully find ways to be happy enough. You can find Happy Enough wherever you listen to podcasts. When you're not weighed down by high interest rates, life lightens up.

Give your finances a lift. Start from the beginning because it's corrupted from the beginning. Well, I tell you, they're all about Alito flying the flag upside down. I think that ought to be a new tradition. I think it will be for our family. Every election, fly the flag upside down distress first we'd have to get an american flag that's right
Starting point is 00:12:47 that's right how long ago lost so much confidence i don't even have an american flag uh so good one just to fly it upside down on election day that would be well a major victory has been won. McCann has now turned his attention, the lawyer, to recouping the $165,000 confiscated by the state and other fines that the gym incurred while struggling to stay open. The lawyer, McCann, said, this is a very tricky issue, and I'm making my way through it. It's very complex. He says, like, is the state trying to destroy people? Yeah. And it's not just coming after trump this is why i say i'm so sick and tired of everybody playing the weeping violins for every little thing that happens to trump yeah they're trying to destroy him guess what they're trying to destroy hundreds of millions of other people and he doesn't care about them why should i care
Starting point is 00:13:46 he is absolutely useless as i said in 2020 you want me to go vote for trump he turned the government over to unelected bureaucrats for the last nine months he just told us that he's not essential didn't? It's like these pastors who close their churches down. Oh, okay. I got it. Your church is not essential. You turned over, the Congress turned over everything to unelected bureaucrats. The president turned it over to unelected bureaucrats.
Starting point is 00:14:16 So I guess the president, Congress are not essential. They're not going to stand for our liberties. They're not going to stand for the Constitution. They will not obey it uh so anyway he says uh is the state trying to destroy people why are you trying to destroy small business well we all know don't we we all know uh this by dr david bell the daily skeptic out of the UK, said, my tribe, my tribe abandoned me in COVID, but I found a new one, one that loves freedom. And he says human societies naturally divide into groups or tribes, okay? And of course, that's the way the Bible has always described it.
Starting point is 00:15:01 It doesn't talk about different races, right? We're all descended from Adam and Eve. We're all descended descended as a matter of fact from noah and his wife uh but it does talk about nations tongues and tribes and i like what michael savage did with it i don't know if it was a conscious restatement of it but uh you know the bible is true and uh even if it's an independent observation of his he just happened to observe in a different perspective the truth about what the Bible says of human nature. Nations, tongues, and tribes are what he said was borders, languages, and cultures. Think of it either way.
Starting point is 00:15:39 So human tribes rely on a shared pride of belonging, a sense of otherness towards non-members. This provides their members with a cause a meaning such as jointly building a better life or something like that right or it could be negative it could be a feeling of superiority or victimhood or something like that or excluding outsiders and he said what he saw with his tribe, he was of the tribe of liberals. And again, they weren't liberals because liberals, these people steal everything. They even stole the name liberal.
Starting point is 00:16:14 Liberal, and we'll say classical liberal now to make that distinction, but the term liberal came from liberate. It meant freedom, and the early part of the 20th century, these people stole it. And now they've discredited that name so much they like to try to call themselves progressive, something else that doesn't really describe them. Anyway, superiority, victimhood, or denigration of others seems to be intertwined in modern society, probably always has been. The reliance
Starting point is 00:16:45 on prejudice, prejudice that our side is morally superior to those others who, in turn, are best described as stupid and prejudice themselves against what we hold to be right. We express their moral inferiority in terms such as racist, something phobic, something denier, anti-something, far-something, or extremist. And it always is a hallmark, isn't it? Always have extreme right, but they never talk about the extreme left. Because that would be them. Anyway, early in the COVID outbreak, it became increasingly apparent that my tribe, a moderate, compassionate group, somewhat left of center and always ready to proclaim support for human rights and equality, had a problem with fascism. It was not that it disliked fascism.
Starting point is 00:17:38 Those members proclaimed loudly that they did or anti-fascist. No, you are fascist. Rather, they seemed disconcertingly comfortable in encompassing it. A bunch of wealthy corporate authoritarians and the politicians who had dinners with them decreed that emergency rule was the preferred form of government. And all of my progressive friends fell in line. This is why Hillary was not needed. It's why Trump was selected. And all of my progressive friends fell in line. This is why Hillary was not needed.
Starting point is 00:18:08 It's why Trump was selected. Because Trump had to be there. And people like Alex Jones would tell people, follow Trump. He's on your side. I know. I know. He went to Davos and then comes back. And within a year, he's locking us down and all the rest of the stuff.
Starting point is 00:18:29 And I know he's doing everything that all of the globalist people that we've been told over the years that we must hate. But he's still anti-globalist. He's just playing 4D chess. No, he's not. You're being played by people like Alex Jones and Joe Rogan and Glenn Beck and Mark Levin and Ben Shapiro and all these other people. They're playing you. They're telling you that Trump is the opposite of these globalists. He's their puppet. And he was necessary because all of the authoritarian leftists will fall in line.
Starting point is 00:18:55 They love this stuff. You need to build up the street creds of some token figure like Trump. Tell people that he is the essence of anti-globalism and then have him run the globalist regime, even creating the poison shot. Oh, they'll never suspect that, will they? Maybe they won't. Maybe they'll never figure it out
Starting point is 00:19:20 if they haven't figured it out after four years. But refuge can be found among fellow refuseniks he said a strange collection of those who mistakenly or not put truth over compliance unwilling to comply with stupidity for appearances sake people who would not put on a mask to walk 10 feet from a restaurant door to a table don't tell me i gotta put on a mask so i can walk 10 feet and then take the mask off i i had more than one restaurant scene about that i don't care so we gotta leave austin because i can't i promised myself that i will never go back to any of these businesses again so if i ever want to eat out again i've got to leave this town that's so disgusted with that left wing, these compliant totalitarian little stazi doing whatever they're told, no matter how ridiculous it is.
Starting point is 00:20:12 I said, you know this doesn't work. Yes, I know. But you have to do it anyway. No, I don't. No, I don't. I'm not going to knock on wood, wear masks, do any of your other superstition stuff. You got a ladder? I'll walk underneath it.
Starting point is 00:20:24 I don't care. I'm not playing those games. Signaling conformity with authority was a virtue in itself to these people. That's fascism. People who asked questions when those who were sponsored by a drug maker told them to be injected. These were the people who simply believed that those who were sponsored by a drug maker told them to be injected. These were the people who simply believed that each person had a right to make their own decision concerning their body and their health.
Starting point is 00:20:53 So, yeah, good for him. And he found some people. And we're going to have to do this again because now they're saying, second human case of bird flu is confirmed with dairy cows. Take away the meat. Take away the milk. They've already announced this long ago. Guess what?
Starting point is 00:21:13 It's pink eye again. Pink eye. No temperature. No fever. No lung congestion. Pink eye. Pink eye. The second.
Starting point is 00:21:23 Listen the way they describe this too on cbs news the second human case associated with bird flu they don't have bird flu the cows don't even have bird flu the latest patient had been in contact with cows presumed to be infected. They don't even pretend to test them. It's this ridiculous PCR thing. Uh, you know, they, they presume it's like, uh, Stanley Livingston bird flu.
Starting point is 00:21:53 I presume. Yes. Dr. Livingston. Absolutely. We must lock everybody down. I get this. Uh,
Starting point is 00:21:59 I'll call it this thing. Oh, I wrote it. It's got a little bit itchy. Oh, bird flu, bird flu. That's what it is. Bird flu. I presume maybe it's got a little bit itchy oh bird flu bird flu that's what it is bird flu i
Starting point is 00:22:05 presume maybe it's just dirty hands rubbing your eyes you're working on a farm you're working with cattle maybe you didn't wash your hands and you rubbed your eyes you don't have fever you don't have lung congestion you don't have bird flu the cows don't have bird flu the cows are not sick but let's kill them anyway because that's what they want a michigan health official said well the risk to the public remains low that's non-existent there is no risk this narrative is dead beat the parrot on the desk. A nasal swab from the person tested negative for the virus. See?
Starting point is 00:22:51 They didn't even have a PCR test. But an eye swab tested positive, they said, indicating an eye infection. Oh, wow. Did he even have pink eye? This is a thing. Did, did, don't talk to me about these names. We've talked about this ad infinitum for four years, right?
Starting point is 00:23:10 Some of these things come preloaded, you know, as, as handy talked about and the hospitals and Atlanta, he said, yeah, the person take it out of the bag and it tested positive. It didn't even rub it on anybody or anything came loaded. Uh, and of course they're magnifying it by 1.1 trillion times now you notice that they didn't say his eye was all inflamed and it came to the doctor can you help me with that no we we couldn't get it with a nasal swab so then we swabbed his eye i'm not they're not doing that me. They didn't do the nasal swab to me.
Starting point is 00:23:45 They're certainly not going to poke a Q-tip in my eye. No way. Um, it just keeps swapping. You know, we couldn't find anything in the cows. So now we're going to start going through the sewer. That's what they're doing, right? Like I said, they're going to go through the milk. Oh, we found some, but don't worry. It's not it's you know we found something that kind of matches up it's remnants
Starting point is 00:24:09 they said of bird flu well then it's not bird flu you didn't find any bird if you found fragments or remnants of it you didn't find anything did you found it in the milk why don't you look in the eggs if it's bird flu none of this makes any sense except you know where they want to go with it it's absolutely ridiculous so pink eye well so far the virus has not appeared to spread from person to person well then you know pink eye is very contagious but uh bird flu is not health officials are strongly advising against drinking raw milk. They put this in every article because they want to go after local farms. And they want to go after organic. Got to get your stuff from big agricultural concerns, from the factories, from the supermarkets.
Starting point is 00:24:56 Don't think about going to the farm to get anything. We've got to get rid of those farmers out there. They're a threat to the system. Let's talk a little bit about pink eye and conjunctivitis. The Mayo Clinic says, well, it can be a lot of different things it could be a foreign body in your eye it could be a serious bacterial infection it could even be transmitted sexually pink eye treatment is usually focused on symptom relief your provider may recommend using artificial tears or cleaning your eyelids with a wet cloth. Oh, applying cold or warm compresses several times daily. If you wear contact lenses, you'll be advised to stop wearing them until treatment is complete.
Starting point is 00:25:32 In most cases, you won't need, you won't need antibiotic eye drops. Since conjunctivitis is usually viral, antibiotics won't even help. They may even cause harm by reducing their effectiveness in the future or by causing a medical reaction so again no antibiotics it's a viral thing and here's eight common myths about pink eye besides the fact that it's not bird flu that's number nine that's the new one this was written before that um conjunjunctivitis, usually called pink eye, is a very common eye condition. So, you know, just like we had before. Flu?
Starting point is 00:26:13 Flu? Oh, it's now COVID. Flu's disappeared. We don't have anybody with flu anymore. Everybody's got COVID, though. But there are many misconceptions about it. So let's add a new one. It is not bird flu here.
Starting point is 00:26:26 One misconception is that only children get pink eye. Well, no, you can get it with adults, especially if they're working on a farm, have dirty hands and rub their eyes. Myth number two, you won't get pink eye if you don't rub your eyes. Well, touching your eyes with unclean hands is just one way that you can get conjunctivitis.
Starting point is 00:26:44 The eye can become infected if it comes in contact with any contaminated object or substance, such as improperly cleaned contact lenses or makeup or lotion or even the tip of an eye drop or gnats. When I was a kid, I talked about that before. In Florida, open windows in the school, no screens, no air conditioning. Anyway, pink eye is always infectious, and it's very, very contagious. That's right. So, how come they're not seeing more cases of this, right? Not all of them are infectious, but some of them are. One myth says you can't be born with conjunctivitis.
Starting point is 00:27:26 Well, some newborns are born with conjunctivitis. Might be a blocked tear duct or something like that. Myth number five, you never need to go to the doctor for conjunctivitis. Why? Because people said that. You might want to go to the doctor because they say most of the time pink eye does not require special treatment. It gets better on its own. But, you you know there might be some things that your doctor does that make you more comfortable how about that why are we talking about locking down the world and killing cattle
Starting point is 00:27:56 and banning raw milk because some people on a farm have conjunctivitis myth number six if you have eye redness then it must be conjunctivitis. Myth number six, if you have eye redness, then it must be conjunctivitis. Well, you know, they said it could be glaucoma or something like that. But, you know, we know that if you have eye redness and you work with cows, it isn't conjunctivitis. It's bird flu.
Starting point is 00:28:19 Absolutely, it's bird flu. So when we look at what these people are doing and here is is um you know what is what is dangerous about all this stuff is the way that it is being put out it's not just by cbs it's not just by mainstream media or drudge report here is um this is from, this is a Breitbart article. And WND put it back out. Two conservative Trump-supporting media organizations. Listen to the headline. CDC reveals secondary worker contracted bird flu.
Starting point is 00:29:03 And then the subtitle. Sounding the alarm that the disease could be more dangerous than previously thought they're pushing panic these people are pushing this out as if they believe something the cd said cdc said do you think that the cdc's got any credibility on anything i don't why would wnd and breitbart push that as if it had credibility? What's the matter with them? What's the matter with you if you trust them? The CDC is just as dishonest and dangerous as always. And guess what? This Trump-sucking media is just as dangerous and dishonest as it was four years ago john nolte
Starting point is 00:29:51 and these people breitbart pushing you know get your get your shot and all the rest of this stuff and he got a lot of pushback from people who were there but now listen to what see breitbart says the cdc revealed the second dairy worker has it. This comes after another dairy worker who's been working on a farm in Texas experienced, listen to this, bleeding of the eyes. Not only is Breitbart stoking fear. They're lying to you about this. And they're enhancing this. And they're hyping it.
Starting point is 00:30:25 And they're hyping it worse than mainstream media. They hyping it worse than cdc it's why because they know that their people are the most skeptical bleeding from the eyes as if this is ebola or something it's conjunctivitis there's no fever there's no lung involvement it's not flu it's not bird flu it's nothing you have to be concerned about. What you should be concerned about is how Breitbart and W&D have been weaponized to push this stuff, just like they were a few years ago. Be careful and think about this. Don't trust any source of information. Think about what you're being told.
Starting point is 00:31:06 Think about whether or not this makes any sense think about what happened the last four years where this is being pushed you better think and you better get a backbone because it's coming the climate vaccines are coming for the cattle then for the humans i talked about this technocracy news i picked it up again um who gives bill gates and a bunch of lunatic bioscientists the right to inject life-altering substances into us into all of the cattle into other livestock that is critical for food no one he says. Well, yeah. Who gives these lunatic bioscientists the right to do this? It's done by the government. It's done by media. And it's done by right-wing media, alternative media as well.
Starting point is 00:31:59 You know what the truth is. And you need to apply that truth. don't trust anyone because of who they are and i would say don't rule out anybody because of who they are because you've had a disagreement with them on one thing or the other take it take it piece by piece and uh you know it is uh this is part of the thing where the you know they, they go in and censor everything that some news organizations done because they disagree and they may not even be right. It could be the organization was right about one piece. Oh, no. Now they're unreliable.
Starting point is 00:32:34 They don't do that, by the way, the New York Times or Washington Post. And I don't think we ought to do that to anything. I think we look at these things and we think about it and don't believe anything simply because it's a news organization that gives it to you. Breitbart does not have any more credibility than the New York Times, quite frankly. Either one of them can get it wrong or they can get it right. It's up to you to think. Technocracy News said, I wrote in January,
Starting point is 00:33:09 the only way to stop these genetic maniacs is to take away their key cards and their containment suits and to immediately escort them out of their laboratories, permanently ban them from any other scientific research for life, make sure they don't get any more government grants, and then raise the buildings to the ground.
Starting point is 00:33:25 And so he's talking about this Arkea bio that I talked about, was it last week or something, at $26.5 million because they're coming up with a shot for farts. That's right. Got to have a vaccine so the cows don't fart and burp methane. So this is the perfect scam. This checks all the boxes that the elites want now can't we just put bino in their food and there was one that was called windbreakers or
Starting point is 00:33:54 something i thought it was really funny i saw that once can we just fill up the trough with windbreakers instead of vaccinating them oh no we, we will have one solution. The solution always must be a vaccine, of course. A vaccine being developed by the company is designed to prevent the animals from releasing methane emissions. Once vaccinated with this shot, they say, and it's going to stop it. They haven't even tested it yet. But everybody wants this to happen, so they raised $26.5 million with a nice story that checked all the boxes.
Starting point is 00:34:27 But it doesn't stop there. You've got several, and the reason I'm revisiting this is because they said, well, you know, there's other companies, Jinko Bioworks, another biofirm that's also backed by Bill Gates, are talking about making human climate vaccines. Right now, you can't have Bino. You will get a shot instead. The World Economic Forum has expressed support for this approach. Vaccinate people to save the climate.
Starting point is 00:35:01 This is a double MacGuffin, double stupid, double plus stupid. I think GSK, the big pharmaceutical giant, GlaxoSmithKline said in the face of climate change, vaccines play a crucial but underestimated role. AstraZeneca, those people have so much credibility after their climate vaccine last year declared climate change to be a public health crisis uh so i don't know uh maybe the question is the the climate change jab for humans is is it going to be there to stop the put it politely, the emission of methane? Yeah. What was it that Benjamin Franklin wrote that book?
Starting point is 00:35:52 Emit methane proudly. Is it going to be to stop the emissions of methane by humans? Or is it just going to be a jab to kill us because that's really what the climate change agenda is about it's about changing out the population getting rid the technocrats and the elitists and all that getting rid of the unwanted eaters and methane emitters. Majority Council in the hearing where they had Francis Collins come in under questioning, and almost all of it was about this lab leak stuff, but this one part of it was relevant.
Starting point is 00:36:43 I don't think that's relevant. I really don't. I think it's a misdirection. But listen to what he had to say about the six feet apart rule. The majority council asked him, said, moving on to social distancing and the various regulations surrounding that. On March the 22nd, 2020, remember, this is only nine days after Trump did the money release to all the governors to implement the regulations that had been sent to them, model legislation had been sent to them, two months after 9-11 and the anthrax attack the week after that. And so Trump releases the money. Nine days later, on March the 22nd, 2020,
Starting point is 00:37:31 the CDC issued guidance describing social distancing to include remaining out congregant settings, avoiding mass gatherings, maintaining a distance of approximately six feet from others when possible. We asked Dr. Fauci where the six feet came from, and he said it kind of just appeared, is the quote. Do you recall science or evidence that supported the six feet distance? Dr. Collins said, I do not.
Starting point is 00:38:02 So Fauci doesn't remember where it came from. Collins doesn't remember where it came from. Collins doesn't remember where it came from. Majority Council said, Is that I do not recall or I do not see any evidence supporting six feet? Dr. Collins, I did not see evidence.
Starting point is 00:38:21 But I'm not sure I would have been shown evidence at that point. Majority council. Well, since then, it has been awfully large topic for the public. Have you seen any evidence since then to support six feet? Dr. Collins? No. Was he gaslighted by the deep state?
Starting point is 00:38:43 Oh, wait, he is the deep state, right? This is what they do with Trump, right? The guy says, well, it's been a pretty big topic now for four years. Do you ever bother to look to see if there's any evidence for it? Just like with Trump. Yeah, it's been a pretty big topic, the fact that people are being killed by your shot. Did you ever do any research or follow up on that? Do you care about any of that stuff?
Starting point is 00:39:02 No, no. He only cares about what happens to Donald Trump, me, right? One thing is, you know, they go in most of this transcript that's been released and it's put out by Robert Malone. Almost all of it is about whether or not Fauci, not Fauci, Collins, who's Fauci's boss at the NIH, whether or not they were knowingly giving money to these foreign labs to do gain-of-function research. Folks, that ship has sailed.
Starting point is 00:39:36 This was not a pandemic. And I don't really care what kind of magic story you've got? As far as I'm concerned right now, the whole idea that there was a pandemic is just as bogus and nonsensical as the fact that it came from bat soup. I really don't care. You shouldn't care either. It's all a distraction. It's a distraction from the fact that they had absolutely no evidence for six feet about the fact, and they were not asked, here's what they were not asked about evidently, or at least if they were asked, Dr. Malone was not interested in the answers about remdesivir. Didn't ask him about that.
Starting point is 00:40:17 You see any evidence to support remdesivir's safety or its efficacy? Do you care? How about ventilators? How about the hospital bribery tactic where people are getting paid to do all this stuff? Hospital administrators are getting paid ridiculous amounts of money. What about the vaccines? You ever look at any of that kind of stuff? No.
Starting point is 00:40:37 The only thing that they care about is the so-called origin of an imaginary pandemic. I care no more about the origin of the COVID-19 supposed pandemic than I care about the origin of Spider-Man or the Hulk or some other imaginary storyline that they use to make money. Yeah, we've got a big franchise out there for the Marvel Universe and the DC Universe. They've all got origin stories, don't they? Just like this pandemic. The question is, do you see the cover-up?
Starting point is 00:41:16 Do you see the misdirection from the remdesivir, the ventilators, the hospital bribery, the vaccines, and the on and on, all this stuff? Do you see the misdirection to the lab and to the origin story? I think I do. I think that's about all I can see at this point in time. We'll be right back. Thank you. Thank you. you're listening to the david knight show look at you roger travis travis wrote that they found remnants of bird flu what is this some kind of viral archaeology well you know actually that was one of the really use the real uses of PCR that he set it up for archeology.
Starting point is 00:43:30 Um, if you find remnants of a civilization, you don't have to worry that they're going to start a war. That's right. Absolutely. And on rock fan, Doug, a log.
Starting point is 00:43:38 Thank you for the tip. And he writes happy Friday regarding Roku. He says, you can get the rumble app on Roku and watch the David night, the David night show on the television. You can't participate in the chat when doing it that way, but the show is great on the big screen. It says,
Starting point is 00:43:55 thank you, David. Well, thank you. And thank you for letting us know. I don't have time to monitor all this stuff. I mean, we put it on a lot of different places and,
Starting point is 00:44:03 and, um, you know, uh, R and Roku is good. We invested some money in that to try to get to a larger audience. But since we had a show that was taken down, it's good to know that it's still there. So please let us know if it disappears or if there's some other issues like that.
Starting point is 00:44:23 And hopefully it will show up if you search for it. You can search for it on your search engine. You can search for it on Roku and other issues like that. And hopefully it will show up. If you search for it, you can search for it on your search engine. You can search for it on Roku and other things like that. And, um, I would just say, and thank you very much for the tip. Um, I, like I said, I don't monitor where the show is all the time, but, uh, um, and I don't do enough to monitor the money, but it is scary bad this month. And so really would appreciate it. And I don't do enough to monitor the money, but it is scary bad this month. And so we really would appreciate it if you like what we're doing, if you would support us, you know, $5 a month. If everybody that downloads the video, not to even mention the people who watch it online,
Starting point is 00:44:57 if they paid $5 a month, we would be doing great. We might wind up trying to get on one of these platforms something where uh people could subscribe there one of them is offering it without fees which would be a big help i just um you know it's it's difficult when you we wouldn't shut down the other ones we'd leave them there so that people could still contribute there if they wanted to. But, um, and then if you didn't want to do it, we'd follow the model where we would stick ads in there, that type of thing. So, um, if, um, either way, if you could do a couple of free things, we would really appreciate
Starting point is 00:45:36 it. Please like the stream wherever you're watching it. And, uh, that helps to, um, get us some visibility. And, uh, we had ask for your prayers as well. Really would appreciate that. Those two things don't cost you anything. That's right, folks. If you like the show, tell your friends.
Starting point is 00:45:53 If you don't like it, tell your enemies. I completely stole that. That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. But no, actually, it does make sense. Thank you. Vaccine stocks blew up because they said, we found another person in the United States, and we found somebody in Australia. We're looking so hard.
Starting point is 00:46:16 Shares of vaccine companies surged, as Fauci would say. We got a surge here. We got a surge of the stocks. We got a surge of money. That's what they're really about, isn't it? Yeah, we got a surge here. We got a surge of the stocks. We got a surge of money. That's what they're really about, isn't it? Yeah, we got shares here. Forget about cases. We got shares.
Starting point is 00:46:33 On Wednesday, the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services reported a farm worker who had high exposure to infected livestock, developed mild symptoms, and has recovered. Well, again, some people say they're presumed they're presumed to be infected then he was presumed to have it and on a lot of presumptuous stuff here what but listen listen to what happened to the stock moderna stock jumped 14 bioint, the German company that Pfizer marketed their garbage for. BioNTech, up 11%. CureVac,
Starting point is 00:47:13 18%. This is the company that's going to be, they say, well, you know, we got a little, Elon Musk was bragging about the fact that he was involved with CureVac and Tesla was involved with it. He says, we're creating these micro factories and they're going to be able to crank out mRNA for all kinds of stuff.
Starting point is 00:47:28 And they also got money from Gates. So the Gates and Musk company, CureVac, and the German government, German government jumped into funding CureVac as well. So the German government, the Nazis, Gates and Musk, all on CureVac. It went up 18%. 18%! Wall Street is trading on the fact that these people are going to push this stuff out to us. Or that they'll push it out to the cattle.
Starting point is 00:48:04 And they could, again again as i've said before they could vaccinate us through our food supply and they could vaccinate the cattle to be more cattle for them to vaccinate than there are humans and they could do it as much as they want the cattle aren't going to complain you know they've treated us like cattle they told us about herd immunity but now they're going to do the real herd stuff and the real cattle. That's very concerning. And Novavax up 5.3%. But, you know, 11%, 14%, 18% for these other drug companies that is happening. They have already started manufacturing 4.8 million doses of bird flu vaccine.
Starting point is 00:48:51 HHS is now at quote advancing its preplanned scandemic. It says s h t f plan dot com. Now advancing its pre-planned scandemic vaccines for the bird flu. The ruling class is going to be creating 4.8 million avian influenza shots along with a propaganda campaign
Starting point is 00:49:16 to accompany it, which by the way, that was launched months ago. It's been iteratively How do we do it? Fauci said, well, we do it. How do we get everybody to take this vaccine? We do it with disruption.
Starting point is 00:49:30 We do it from the inside. And we do it iteratively. And they do it with alarm. And they do it iteratively from the inside. They've launched this propaganda campaign months ago to convince the slave class to get injected once again. According to the university of Minnesota's Don O'Connell said, health officials have identified a manufacturing line at one of its
Starting point is 00:50:01 manufacturing partners for fill and finish steps without disrupting the production of seasonal flu vaccine which they put in chicken eggs okay hmm yeah they make the flu vaccine inside the chicken eggs forever currently the vaccine is in bulk form and will be produced in multi-dose vials is this just another pre-planned excuse to try to get vaccine is in bulk form and will be produced in multidose vials. Is this just another pre-planned excuse to try to get whatever is in these syringes into the bodies of the slaves that are being ruled over? That's a rhetorical question. We all know the answer to that, don't we? And you can trust the FDA.
Starting point is 00:50:39 You can trust the medical community. Or can you? Toxic metals have now been found in baby formula and not just in one brand all samples tested positive for very concerning levels of aluminum and lead 20 different types of formula were tested twice for this study done by gmo science and um so you know um you would think that the food and drug administration would be concerned about feeding lead to babies no no i mean they want to get rid of lead everywhere uh my friend who worked at the EPA. Um, he also had a business where they were reselling, um, uh, you know, people would resell kids, uh, clothing and stuff like that, or, you know, used items.
Starting point is 00:51:36 And, um, and he, you know, they would organize these cells where people would bring them in. It's like a collective garage sale and they'd take a cut. And it was kind of a side business that they had going on he said you know if the epa that i work for puts this stuff through they've got ridiculous regulations out there saying um that you can't resell clothing because it might have lead some microscopic amount of lead in the zipper or there or um some uh motorcycles or motorbikes because there might be lead on the you know on the on the tailpipes or something i said what do they think people are going to go out
Starting point is 00:52:11 and lick the tailpipes of these motorcycles after they buy them what's the deal with all this stuff uh that got defeated because it was so comprehensive but they are so obsessive about things like that, but they don't check baby formula to see if it's got lead or to see if it's got aluminum. All of the samples tested positive for concerning levels of lead and aluminum, and some also tested positive for arsenic, cadmium, mercury. The mercury level in four samples exceeded the FDA limit for drinking water. And the cadmium level in both samples for one brand were nearly twice the level found in drinking water. Five samples tested positive for all five metals.
Starting point is 00:52:59 So here's the plan for children. First, we try to abort them. That doesn't work. We try to poison them with vaccines, with food, and then we poison their minds in school with indoctrination, and then we can ultimately mutilate and sterilize them. How about that? Full-on plan. Where's that coming from? Is that satanic? And, you know, we talk so much about transgenderism right well there's something else called transgenic this is the genetic modification of animals and things and now
Starting point is 00:53:33 they have a very strange use i mean you think it was strange that they've got a vaccine to stop cow farts well these are this is genetic modification to make cows squirt insulin from their teats instead of milk. Because that's what we need, isn't it? Health Day News says, well, there may be an unexpected fix for the ongoing shortage of insulin. A brown bovine in Brazil recently made history as the first transgenic cow. So we've gone from these transgender freaks and the Biden administration. Now we're going to have transgenic cows.
Starting point is 00:54:13 It's transhumanism and all the rest of this stuff. And here's the way they explained it. The quote, Mother Nature designed the mammary gland as a factory to make protein. Really, really efficiently. No, it was not Mother Nature. It was Father God who did it.
Starting point is 00:54:30 And so we're going to fix that. We're going to change that. We can take advantage of that system to produce a protein that can help hundreds of millions of people worldwide. And Armageddon Pros says, well, this is exactly how technocrats view all life forms, including humans. We are all merely factories. That's what they said with the mRNA stuff, right?
Starting point is 00:54:53 You are a, we're going to turn your body into a factory. We're going to inject you with this genetic code and it's going to turn your body into a factory to create this stuff. And how do you turn that off? Well, maybe you don't. They view us all as factories to produce biologics for some pharmaceutical or industrial purpose. At least until AI figures out to achieve the same production capacity without us. Then we become utterly useless. I don't think they meant that as
Starting point is 00:55:26 a pun you got a cow that uh is producing insulin that way i think they're utterly useless as far as i'm concerned okay will we be able to get raw insulin or will it have to be going filtered through the big agricultural big pharmaceutical people a biotechnology journal said using transgenic animals as bioreactors to produce proteins of pharmaceutical interest i have no interest in that but the pharmaceutical companies do has been proposed as an efficient alternative to an increase in protein production while decreasing costs. The mammary gland is a tissue where post-translational modifications are possible for large-scale recombinant protein production. The first step in this process is to produce transgenic animals containing a trans gene that drives recombinant protein expression in a tissue-specific manner in the mammary gland.
Starting point is 00:56:32 Mad scientists. Given mad money, mad amounts of money, by the government, the Federal Reserve, which can just make this stuff up out of thin air. The combination of gene transfer mediated by Lentivirus and SCNT methodologies using this work successively generated a transgenic calf that contains a gene to produce human pro insulin and milk. And so, um, RT says minister for finance, Michael McGrath has said a study by his department has concluded that up to one-third of jobs in ireland could be at risk in the future from artificial
Starting point is 00:57:15 intelligence uh and he said um that um other studies estimated that AI will affect about two-thirds of employment in Ireland. So unless they can use us as some kind of a biological producing thing, they're not interested. And for the longest time, and I talked about how one of the big issues when our kids were young in the early 90s, and school was in view view like, no, we're not going to do it because they're diagnosing all the boys with ADHD and they're giving them Ritalin and all of the kinds of things like that. Well, it turns out these common medications for ADHD are linked to an increased risk of glaucoma, for example. And do they care?
Starting point is 00:58:02 Of course they don't. Of course they don don't they'll continue to do that on rumble hal 9000 says uh one flu over the cuckoo's nest that's right um one flu to rule us all and it'll be a different flu from time to time rumble aldo the apache thank you for the tip that's very kind thank you he says here's my thank you for the tip. That's very kind. Thank you. He says, here's my $5 and the rest of it's for nine feds that download, but don't contribute. That's right. Uh,
Starting point is 00:58:33 that's good. I like that. Uh, rumble junk silver. The cattle are almost as compliant with the vaccine as Americans were in 2021 to 2022. So I'll Patriot. Thank you for the tip.
Starting point is 00:58:44 It says the narrow gate is never the easy path. Thank you for staying vigilant and faithful. Well, thank you. Thank you for your support. We're going to take a quick break. We were just talking about Ireland. Let's do the 30 birds break here. Thank you. You're listening to The David Knight Show. Yeah, Travis wrote to me and says,
Starting point is 01:00:12 how come none of these mad scientists are working on ways to make dogs live to the age of 80? Yeah, actually what they're doing. Do something useful. What they're doing instead of that, Travis. You remember from Mars Attack, how they transplanted the heads and different, you know, the dog had got on the woman and vice versa. That's what they're working on. Head transplants. Yeah, that's people are insane.
Starting point is 01:00:39 And possessed, quite frankly. Well, let's talk about I mentioned SpaceX is going to be launching a designer line of satellites for the intelligence community. As if, in a sense, the Starlink stuff is not enough. You know, the Internet was designed, as I said many times, especially social media, especially things like Twitter, for example. They were designed as a surveillance system. They were designed as a propaganda and surveillance system. And of course, Elon Musk has referred to Twitter as a, you know, first step towards some kind of a hive mind type of thing. You don't think that he's scraping stuff off and looking at it. And of course, artificial intelligence is all about scraping things off of the internet. Uh, you know,
Starting point is 01:01:20 the big competition for what they call compute you know big data big big uh tremendous amounts of data that's why they need to have uh this they've got the sensational appetite for power so much so they're building their own lines of nuclear power plants that'll be their private uh stuff just amazing and of course with star, he's going to be putting up 20,000 or more satellites. You won't be able to see the stars in the sky because of his satellites, most likely. But, of course, anything he wants to do, anything the government wants to do, that's just fine. But that's not enough because the spies need to have their own special thing. They don't have their own special
Starting point is 01:02:05 cameras and other things like that uh to spy on people spacex on wednesday launched an inaugural batch of operational spy satellites that it built as part of a new u.s intelligence network and again this stuff started as darpanet yeah before it became internet uh it was darpa, DARPA psychologists that came up with the idea of an Internet. But this is even more fine-tuned for other spy purposes. It's designed to significantly upgrade the country's space-based surveillance powers. The first deployment of several more that are planned for this year. SpaceX is building hundreds of satellites for the U.S. National Reconnaissance Office,
Starting point is 01:02:48 says Reuters, an intelligence agency. And of course, this will be a kind of military surveillance and spy, but who knows exactly what they'll use it for. SpaceX has become the world's largest satellite operator with its Starlink network, a commercial system of thousands of broadband internet satellites, tens of thousands, quite frankly. And so this is just to underscore the fact that, you know,
Starting point is 01:03:15 it's a few points I would make about Elon Musk. Number one, he's not on our side. He is a technocrat who has openly embraced the demonic agenda of transhumanism. That's far more alarming than his Halloween costume picture that he has for his profile. He became the richest man in the world by doing everything that these globalist governments want. He's pushed the green agenda. He's pushing the surveillance state, all of this stuff, alternative media, like Rogan and Alex Jones worship this globalist.
Starting point is 01:03:55 It just astounds me. Uh, they don't know. You really think they don't know. I know Alex does, uh, but he worships him nevertheless. And, of course, Maga thinks that he single-handedly saved free speech. Twitter itself is a surveillance system, folks. He's got his own purposes for this, but he's going to be left alone because he is so valuable to their agendas, the green agenda and other things, and because he's so valuable to them for the transhuman agenda
Starting point is 01:04:27 and for the surveillance state agenda. You've seen him bow and scrape to Theory Breton out of the EU over their DSA regulations. All of social media, folks, is rope-a-dope. It's all there to spy on you. It's all there to spy on you it's all there to nudge you in different direction and he's talked about twitter being the hive mind as i said you know fortunately fortunately there are some things that there's some chinks in his baphomet armor and one of them that i think is very significant is the Cybertruck.
Starting point is 01:05:08 And this was something that was put together. Who was the guy that did this? He's got a YouTube channel. Now, he is absolutely obsessed with hatred for Tesla, which I'm not. Fine. I've got a great friend who's got a Tesla. I've driven it. I enjoy driving it.
Starting point is 01:05:25 You want to buy a car? That's fine. What I don't like is having an agenda shoved down my throat, being told that I have to buy a car. I don't like people being subsidized by the government, whether they're making the product that I want or not. And so for all those reasons, I oppose it. You know, the first time I ever interviewed Eric Peters, who's going to be on in the third hour uh it was over a fine article that he wrote calling elon musk the king of crony capitalism that was like uh 12 years ago or something and um and he already had several billion dollars of money that had been given to him and he really was the king of crony capitalism and it's gotten much worse i i just i don don't like crony capitalism. I don't have, I don't like bands. I don't like
Starting point is 01:06:09 being coerced and having this and not be able to have that. Uh, so I have a problem with that, but this guy's looking at it and he did a video and he said, I think that Tesla is going to be a bigger failure, a bigger scam than Enron. Now I don't believe that. I don't think that's, I mean, it's going to be tougher for them now that there's other companies that are out there that are competing with them and competing with the Chinese. But I think that he'll find a way to align himself with government, with foreign governments, even perhaps with the Chinese government to make this thing work. But what he did do was he put together a lot of stuff about the cyber truck and that was really bolstering his case that tesla was going to fail
Starting point is 01:06:52 and so this is some clips here and when you listen to this if you're listening to it on audio i'll just tell you in advance they've got such pieces falling off of it while people are driving down the road and um you know incredibly expensive to replace but one of the things two of the things that were really uh amazing to me you shut the hood the front hood for the frunk you know because the batteries are underneath it of course and um it's got a heavy um uh hood there for the front trunk. And he said, people complain about injuring their fingers. And so the guy put it there.
Starting point is 01:07:30 And just the way the thing, he said, he pulled it out. He said, look at this. It cut into my fingers. I can't move it. I think it broke it. And then they took carrots and they dropped it. You'll see this in the video. And then the other thing is that with the Cybertruck, now I haven't seen this with the
Starting point is 01:07:44 other Tesla cars. As a matter of't seen this with the other Tesla cars. As a matter of fact, I've seen other Tesla cars going through flooded streets and doing it better than a gasoline car because they didn't need to have air. You know, you see that with the Jeep. Sometimes they'll have some air intake that'll be up like a periscope type of thing. But since they're electronic, I guess, as long as the electronics are sealed, you know, you can just drive right through the water and people assume that would happen with a Cybertruck. I've seen videos, it's not in this one, I've seen videos of somebody with a Cybertruck just hitting a puddle. Wasn't even deep. It splashed up and the thing goes, you know, and then stops and it bricks it.
Starting point is 01:08:20 And with a Cybertruck, you can't go through a car wash unless you put it in car wash mode to somehow protect something that gets broken um and um you know even in a heavy rainstorm so here's a clip about cyber truck fails and i think it tells us a great deal about elon musk go back and forth nate if to solve sustainable energy we have to have a pickup truck so i present to you the cyber truck so i can go right the right wheel is broken so now the two wheels are pointing to each other i'm going to put my finger completely flat against the cyber truck this time you believe in elon or you don't this is it this is what you got to throw down your flat right here and see what happens
Starting point is 01:09:05 ready ready ready it it really is the most i didn't smash this thing best product okay i can't even move my finger right now i might have actually broken it look at how bad that puncture is. And one thing I am confident of saying is that it's an incredible product. It's a Hall of Famer, I think. Plagued with a very serious issue where the accelerator pedal can come off and get lodged up in the floorboard, causing the vehicle to be pressed down
Starting point is 01:09:41 to 100% acceleration. So it looks like there's a bolt here, and the bolt just came undone, just vibrated out. At Carat Tesla, we have the finest in apocalypse technology. It went all the way here, and now it's totally bent right there. All bent up. How tough is your truck? It's crazy.
Starting point is 01:10:08 The question is, how did it happen? How did it happen? At this point, I think I know more about manufacturing than anyone currently alive on Earth. Franz, could you try to break this glass, please? Oh, my God. Well, maybe that was a little too hard. I would literally take a bullet for Elon.
Starting point is 01:10:30 What Elon is doing is more important for the future of my children than anything I'm doing. Oh, man. It didn't go through. Elon is doing more for the planet than more for my children. Just for what he's doing, he's doing more for my children than I am. It can obliterate a child's arm? we have a car here that experts said was impossible that experts said would never be made carrot chopping here's a plate looking at the company you get all the improvements that are happening
Starting point is 01:11:03 you know when people say oh you know everything's on fire like well what am i missing It's a plate. Looking at the company, you look at all the improvements that are happening. You know, when people say, oh, you know, everything's on fire, like, well, what am I missing? Things are going really well. I don't know if you're watching what the company does. Yeah, I mean, we dug our own grave with Cybertruck, you know. I think it's our best product. Everybody digs their own grave better than themselves. Ah, Cybertruck, the $100,000 truck whose warranty can be voided if you take it to a car wash. And don't put it in car wash mode.
Starting point is 01:11:32 Or a truck that you shouldn't wash in the sunlight, which is maybe why the delivery event was conducted at night. Make sure that whatever you're doing is a great product or service. It has to be really great. I turned off-road mode on while parked in a parking lot. After a few minutes, I heard a pop and the suspension lowered. I couldn't even off-road in a parking lot. But if you're entering anything where there's an existing marketplace
Starting point is 01:11:59 against large entrenched competitors. Trucks have been the same for a very long time. Like a 100 years. Your product or service needs to be much better than theirs. It can't be a little bit better. Tesla is saying it will take a month to fix. Please help. Only had the Cybertruck for a week.
Starting point is 01:12:17 Had the Cybertruck for four days and then this part blew off on the highway and I can't find it. On the way home after purchasing my Cybertruck, the window cracked. It looks like a manufacturing defect yet the service center wants to charge me 2300 dollars a flagstaff charger was having issues staying on and now it bricked my cyber truck can't get in no power and there's the wheel so now the two wheels are facing each other shoes of the consumer and they say why would you buy it as a consumer you're always going to buy the trusted brand unless there's a big difference
Starting point is 01:12:48 wait there's more this one was completely bricked after four days of ownership this one broke down after driving off the lot and driving only 35 miles and then had to be picked up and towed back to the service center day one and i already need a new high voltage battery so a lot of times entrepreneur will come up with something which is only slightly better and it's it's not it can't just be slightly better it's got to be a lot better yeah well you know what do they what does he have we we see this happening with boeing right a lot of people are talking about what is going on with boeing uh one failure after the other well you know there is something that is common with boeing and with
Starting point is 01:13:26 musk and that is their connection to the military industrial complex and the governments and somehow that covers a multitude of sin doesn't it well uh the artificial intelligence relies on mass surveillance warns the boss of signal the encrypted messaging app signal who knew right that's what i've been saying about this from very very beginning i believe that is its core function just like i believe it's the core function of the internet especially social media is surveillance and propaganda she's only talking about the surveillance side of this. I think it has a dual purpose. AI, just like the social media, it's about surveillance and propaganda. And then, of course, to team AI with universal basic income, because both welfare, which is what universal basic income is, it's a universal welfare program. It's there to create dependence. And so is artificial intelligence.
Starting point is 01:14:26 It's there to create dependence on them, to surveil you, to manipulate you with lies. The AI tools that crunch numbers, generate text and videos and find patterns and data rely on mass surveillance and exercise concerning control over our lives, said the boss of encrypted messaging app Signal yesterday. The AI technologies we're talking about today are reliant on mass surveillance, she said. They require huge amounts of data that are the derivatives of this mass surveillance business model that grew out of the 90s in the U.S. It's a business model, but you are the product, right? They're selling your information to corporations. They're selling your information to the government. And the
Starting point is 01:15:13 business model is a model of mass surveillance. Who do you think would have a business model of mass surveillance? Would it be the CIA that set up its own venture capital firm? Would it be the NSA and the CIA and all the intelligence community that had all of these high-ranking officials setting on the venture capital boards that picked the competitors and then allowed them to fight it out amongst themselves? The competitors that became Facebook and Google and these other things. Whitaker, who spent years working for Google before helping to organize a staff walkout in 2018 over working conditions, established the AI Now Institute in New York University in 2017. She now campaigns for privacy and rails against the business models built on the extraction of personal data.
Starting point is 01:16:04 She is clear that she has no confidence that the AI industry is developing in the right direction. This is somebody who seven years ago had created the AI Now Institute. She says, wait a minute, this thing has become dangerous. It is not serving our needs. Why is it not serving our needs? She said, the power imbalances created by this industry is controlled by a handful of surveillance giants that are largely unaccountable most of us are not the
Starting point is 01:16:34 users of ai if you think you're really using ai you don't understand what the real purpose of ai is the real purpose of ai is to use you she, most of us are subjected to its use by our employers, by law enforcement, by governments, by whoever it is. They have their own goals, but they may not be the goals that benefit us or that benefit society. That's right. It is the artilect war. It is the artilect class, the artificial intelligence class that is at war with us. These people even have their own private grid. But she said, striking example is the way that AI firms like to say that they're going to find solutions to the climate crisis. They're going to have their own private grid while they tell you that you must shut down.
Starting point is 01:17:21 While their artificial intelligence chat bots parrot the lies of the un and all these different globalist organizations like davos and and so forth ultimately she argued europeans should not be thinking in terms of competing with the bigger american ai firms she said another option would be to reimagine tech they can serve more democratic and more rights-preserving or pluralistic societies. I don't know what her vision is, but I think in general she's right. You know, we get into this arms race type of thing. And I think people need to understand that it's already too late to beat these people.
Starting point is 01:17:57 They're too entrenched. They're too big. They're too monopolistic. The way you beat something that is entrenched like that, the way you beat, we've seen this over and over again. And regardless of any antitrust legislation that somebody might put out there to try to stop John D. Rockefeller, after he's gotten to a certain critical mass, you're not going to be able to stop it. What you can do is you can come up with something that is an alternative. And these were setbacks for John D. Rockefeller as he was building his empire. First, he thought he had everything cornered. He thought he'd cornered the world market on oil
Starting point is 01:18:30 because nobody knew where it was coming from except in Pennsylvania. He was somebody who bought his way out of the Civil War. You could do that. If you had money, instead of being drafted and sent to fight, you could pay money and get out. And so he paid money and he got out. Now, as the North was going to war with the South, they cut off turpentine, major export from the South up to North. And they needed it for a lot of different things. And so they found a substitute for lamp oil and things like that initially. Uh, and, um, this, uh, in Pennsylvania, it's kind of like the Beverly Hillbillies, you know, up through the ground comes a bubbling crude oil. That is, uh, instead of going to Beverly Hills, however, what he did was he doubled down and he went to Pennsylvania where there was already a bunch of, uh, a bunch of refiners that were there operating there.
Starting point is 01:19:23 A very crude beginning, uh, process of that. And that were there operating there, uh, very crude beginning, uh, process of that. And what he did was he started buying them up and getting a monopoly. And he was successful in terms of cornering that market. And he had a monopoly on that. And then somebody discovered oil in Texas.
Starting point is 01:19:40 Oh, Oh, so how's, what's he going to do about that? We create standard oil of Ohio so that he going to do about that? Well, he creates Standard Oil of Ohio so that he can control the oil that is coming up from Texas and these other places with refineries up in Ohio before it's redistributed. Then they discover oil in the Middle East. This is getting complicated. But the bottom line is that this can happen not just with discoveries of the raw
Starting point is 01:20:01 materials somewhere else, but if they change the technology. And so what she's saying is actually true. We need to, instead of trying to beat these people at their own game, we need a different game. And there's a lot of people out there who want a different game. They want a game that isn't focused like the internet and like these social media companies, that isn't focused on us as
Starting point is 01:20:25 the product. We need to have a, a way to look at this. And so again, if there are technologists out there who are going to do that, I think that would be the winning solution. And George Gilder thought that would happen. He thought it would happen even sooner than now when he wrote life after
Starting point is 01:20:43 Google, he said, look, I'm already in my eighties. I'm not going to live very long, but I think I'll live to see the end of Google because their business model is exploitation and manipulation. And people don't want that and people want privacy instead. And if somebody comes up with something that has privacy built in as a
Starting point is 01:21:00 foundational aspect, instead of added after the fact on the side. He said that would really sell. So what are you talking about? You know, Tesla and Cybertruck, it's okay. But, you know, with all these things, the government's not really concerned about it. And the same thing is true of Boeing. Nearly 300 Boeing 777s used by United and American Airlines are at risk for exploding fuel tanks. They're like flying Pintos or something, right?
Starting point is 01:21:31 And we don't care. The 777, poor electrical insulation nears fuel tank that can cause fire or explosion. Is this a redesign? I mean, this thing has been around since the 1990s, early 1990s. It could be, you know, I'm sure that they've redesigned a lot of things in the last 30 some odd years. And they're probably making it in different locations and making it differently. And so these may be things that have just newly cropped up. So they've got some fixes for it, but, you know, the projected cost to fix this is about $700,000. Will they ground these things?
Starting point is 01:22:09 Will they penalize Boeing? Well, they're not going to put Boeing out of business because, just like Elon Musk, Boeing is a very important contractor for them. And I wonder if they're going to put the DEI out of business in the schools. You know, it's not just a problem when they're protesting Israel, is it? It's a much bigger problem than that. This has been foundational for quite some time, but nobody cared. They kept donating money.
Starting point is 01:22:37 Government kept giving them money. And now we look at UCLA. Up to half of UCLA's medical students now fail basic tests of medical competence and whistleblowers are saying that it's because of affirmative action and because of a particular human resources person who has come in and kind of trace the collapse to her coming into the school. It's been illegal in California to have affirmative action since 1996, but she put it back in. And a lot of people are saying it's now a failed medical school.
Starting point is 01:23:16 It gets as many as 14,000 applications of year a year. And out of those 14,000, it only accepted 173 students last year in the admission cycle. Uh, that's only 1.3% of the admissions, uh, of the people who applied get admitted. And, uh, because of its reputation, they, they get that many different applications, a median matriculant, uh, took difficult science courses in college and earned a 3.8 grade point average. And so that's the median. So half of the people had a score above that. Half of them had a score below that, but half of them had a score above that. Without those stellar stats, some doctors
Starting point is 01:24:03 at the school say that students can struggle to keep pace with the demanding curriculum. So when it came time for the admissions committee to consider one such student in November of 2021, a black applicant with grades and test scores far below the average at UCLA, some members of the committee felt this particular candidate was not the best fit for the top tier medical school. Their reservations were not well received. There was a dean of admissions, Jennifer Lucero. She exploded in anger. Did you not know African-American women are dying at a higher rate than everybody else? She said that's her justification for it. Well, maybe she needs the best quality doctor regardless of what their skin color or gender or ethnicity or whatever is,
Starting point is 01:24:52 don't you think? Don't you think that'd be most beneficial to African-American women? Don't we want to have the best medical care out there? The candidates' scores shouldn't matter, she said, because we need people like this in the medical school. Hmm. Well, within three years of her being hired in 2020, UCLA dropped from 6th to 18th place in the U.S. News & World Report's rankings for medical research. More than 50% of students failed standardized tests on emergency medicine, family medicine, internal medicine, and pediatrics. Those tests, known as shelf exams,
Starting point is 01:25:34 are typically taken at the end of each clinical rotation. They measure basic medical knowledge and they play a pivotal role in residency applications. Though only 5% of students fail each test nationally, the rates were much higher at UCLA, having increased by tenfold since this woman became the admissions director. Yeah, this is where we come back. We're going to take a look at how some of the stuff has worked its way out. But I want to respond to some of the people who have left some comments here. Rockfin, William Wallace. Good to see you.
Starting point is 01:26:16 Wave your claymore there. Trying to get my wife to see the string that connects Lex Rex and Romans 13 and the lesser magistrate is like pulling teeth well yeah it is there you know but the law is our king isn't it the law is our king and it's good and when we look at romans 13 and the doctrine of the lesser magistrate um these moral codes never go away and when you look at it the question is when it says that the government is your authority for good, is it saying that, well, because it's the government, it's by definition good? Or is it saying that legitimate government is going to be good? Because legitimate government is going to follow the rule of law instead of being a tyrannical dictator. That's the way that I read it, especially if you go through and you substitute for government,
Starting point is 01:27:10 substitute the archetypal cartoon, the Nazis. You know, the Nazis are God's agent for your good. Is that right? Is that really true? There's a cognitive dissonance there if you substitute that word for government there, because that's the kind of the placeholder for people, their mind of what authoritarian government is. Owen61, thank you for the tip. Thank you very much. He says, my donation for the development
Starting point is 01:27:38 of insulin squirting cows. Thank you. AGK, thank you for the the tip had to make it through 10 seconds of trump jr and trump begging for money i'd rather have david have my money well thank you on rock fan tornado thank you for the tip writes happy friday david god bless you and your family i was wondering if you thought about taking listener phone calls i was also wondering if you could post some videos of you playing music sometime i'd love to see you playing the various instruments in your arsenal anyway i hope you and all your listeners have a nice Memorial Day weekend. Well, thank you very much. Well, to answer some of those questions, let's see.
Starting point is 01:28:13 In terms of phone calls, we talked about doing it. We have a very complicated setup here. It's on me to get it figured out, and I just haven't been able to because I think it's going to require me to basically disassemble the entire studio and reroute the wiring. Yeah, it's kind of grown ad hoc over the years, hasn't it? As we've added, we started out just a few different places and as we added other places, you've kind of added that on the side. I've got bags on the side of the bags I have on the side. So that's a technical thing. But then there's the reason I haven't really pushed him on it, uh, is because I think when
Starting point is 01:28:49 we have these types of things and we have email comments and stuff like that, I can go through them, uh, really quickly. What I would like to do is I would like to take more comments from people. And I think we'll do that on Fridays. And, um, you know, people can ask me anything. They can do it live, uh, on these chat streams where they can do it with emails or with letters or whatever. Uh, and I think that would be good because people have a lot of interesting comments
Starting point is 01:29:15 and I've got a couple here that I haven't, uh, didn't get to yesterday. I'm going to try to get to, so we're going to take a quick break. And, um, in terms of, uh, pictures of me playing, playing um that probably is not going to happen either that's uh i you know it's it's uh the time that i've got is um i didn't want to make it all about me and um uh you know we're doing the music because it's not even really about the music that i'm doing for the show there's a lot of other music that I'm working on and, um, and that I'm trying to get done. And, uh, these are, these are songs that, uh, I wrote that are Christian songs. They really kind of just kind of part of my private personal time that I've done for a couple of decades now. And, uh, we've done them. We've had some home meetings and things like
Starting point is 01:30:00 that, uh, for people and some of them, uh't put out before and those so those are things that i was really blessed to have just enjoyed them myself music that i liked combined with uh some passages out of the bible that i really liked and that's really kind of my focus and i have so little time to do that i probably don't have time to get the other stuff done. We're going to take a quick break and we'll be right back. We're going to play something here with Whistler joining me on this. Thank you. you're listening to the david knight show well i i maybe you have seen it by now uh but um this uh video that i'm going to play for you of these women uh screaming in the forest and banging sticks and stuff and paying four thousand dollars to do it uh these awful women and again for the love of the road uh i think it was that told me that it was Michael Malice who came up with that acronym.
Starting point is 01:31:49 Affluent, white, female, ultra liberals. But Jesse Waters was intrigued by it. And he had this woman who was running this scam. Come on. And she is a witch. And there was somebody who used to be in the occult, who is now a Christian, an ex-psychic, she says she is. And she said, you're pushing, this is not the first time that Jesse Waters has done this. It's the third time that he's done this. And she said, you're pushing doctrines of demons he brings her on he says oh
Starting point is 01:32:26 i like you witch i guess she's a waters a waters witch right uh so former psychic he repented of witchcraft to become a christian hit out of fox news for doing this for the third time especially jesse waters and the chiron there says woman's sacred rage released in the forest is it is it sacred um so they talked about this uh rage which ritual and he put out on twitter he said why are women so angry well because they're awful they're affluent white female ultra liberals he says rage ritual leader and witch mia magic explains how she's helping women get it all out well here's what it looks like wow i feel sad.
Starting point is 01:33:25 They're screaming. They're beating things. Yeah. It is amazing what we are ginning up in our society, isn't it? The anger, the rage, the hatred. And, you know, you see this sometimes when you uh talk to these people when they're doing a political protest you they do everything but beat you with a stick i guess maybe they do that sometimes as well her retreats cost four thousand four hundred and forty four
Starting point is 01:33:57 dollars why should you just make it six six six six six uh eight thousand dollars if you go to France. Banducci also offers a six-week witch school that purports to offer a crash course in occult practices, such as circle casting, communicating with spirit animals, casting spells, chakra balancing, astrology, and various other rituals to obtain one's own desires. That costs $333 or three monthly payments of $133. Waters, excuse me, Waters' interview with her follows an interview that he did in January with the English psychic Paula Roberts who discerned the country's political future with tarot cards. I covered that as well.
Starting point is 01:34:44 Remember? He had her on. They did a tarot cards. I covered that as well. Remember? You had her on. They did a tarot card reading on Fox News. And now, you know, I first saw this. I just thought these are, you know, crazy, enraged women, you know, just screaming out there. But it is a witchcraft type of thing as well. In April, Fox & Friends brought on an astrologer to explain to steve
Starting point is 01:35:06 ducey brian kilmeade ainsley erhart and lawrence jones how the solar eclipse could affect someone's entire life for at least six months she also offered broad predictions for each of the fox and friends anchors based on their astrological charts so this former psychic former occultist condemned the practices so their doctrines of demons emphasized the danger that she believes fox news is posing for viewers by promoting this uncritically she said banducci's solutions are not solutions at all they're expensive she said healing can only be found in Jesus Christ and in the fatherhood of God. She said the problem with this is that, number one, you're pointing to something demonic. You're pointing to man.
Starting point is 01:35:54 You're pointing to the devil to heal your traumatic wounds, and it can't heal. Beating the earth until you're blue in the face cannot heal you. Opening demonic doors by going to something is led by which leads to further oppression so you're not going to the problem for the for the solution this is such a complete disgusting demonic contradiction she says the opposite of god's word and that's the agenda the money is the icing on the cake because you're not going to have the devil without money. You're not going to have Fox News without the money. Therefore, they're made of wood.
Starting point is 01:36:32 Demons don't heal. Demons don't care about your daddy issues. They don't care. They just want you to stay away from God. She said, Fox News, please do me a favor. Please stop putting diviners on your channel. I'm begging you. The devil is using you.
Starting point is 01:36:48 Well, we've already seen them be used to push pharmakia, haven't we? And it was the money thing that was there, wasn't it? Maybe we should start calling them the Fox Witch Doctors. Last July, an investigation by The Blaze revealed that Fox Corporation was willing to match Fox News employee donations up to $1,000 to a number of far-left organizations, including the Satanic Temple. Fox News never publicly addressed the revelation that emerged from multiple sources within the company, though it removed the Satanic Temple from its giving portal days after the Blaze reported it. And then in a follow-up to, again, this guy Harrison Butker, he is just the gift that keeps on giving, isn't he? You've now got a Jesuit journal that is trashing him.
Starting point is 01:37:41 This is a story from Breitbart. Because, of course, you know marxists hate family as well as religion these jesuit marxists american magazine the u.s jesuit flagship publications joined atheists and liberal elites in blasting nfl kicker harrison butker for his conservative catholic themed commencement address at benedictine. Zach Davis, an associate editor at America, wrote of the speech. He said, it goes beyond legitimate conservative liberal differences. He said, it's backwards. He said, Pope Francis, another Marxist Jesuit,
Starting point is 01:38:21 has warned about this repeatedly throughout his papacy. There is a fashion, he said, in this age of the church's life to, quote, step back. Not going up or down, but backward. He said, this back-stepping makes us a sect, and it makes you closed, and it cuts off your horizons. Well, I would like to see what is the Jesuit vision of family. Do they want it to exist? To me, these people who are criticizing it, just like these Jesuits,
Starting point is 01:38:52 they're not offering any positive alternative. Also, I seem to remember Jesus saying something about how he was a sword and he would divide or cut off you from other people. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's right. Yeah, he's going to, he's going to think I came to bring peace, but bring a sword, and you'll have family relatives opposing each other over me,
Starting point is 01:39:14 that part of it. But again, do they have a positive vision of this? It reminds me of when, you know, Karen was doing that protest at the Austin Abortionin abortion center planned parenthood and holding up signs saying abortion is black genocide and these people first time we ever saw antifa they show up and they've got all black signs they had nothing to say they just want to shut down what you're doing those antifa marxists these jesuit marxists
Starting point is 01:39:43 they have nothing to say. They're anti-family, anti-God, and they just want to shut you up. And that's really what the Satanic Temple is about as well. They don't believe anything. They just want to shut down and attack what you believe. Benedictine College was recently featured in a report from the AP, and the
Starting point is 01:39:59 headline was, A Step Back in Time. See? Talking about going backwards. Catholic League President Bill Donahue observed, he said, it's striking to see people like Whoopi Goldberg and Bill Maher speak in defense of Harrison Butker, while the Catholics at America, that Jesuit magazine, criticize him. And, of course, they're not the only ones who do that. And it's not just these these jesuits and it's all these liberals here
Starting point is 01:40:27 is a a woman who identifies herself as an nfl cheerleader uh she is awful as well affluent white female ultra liberal listen to this this is absolutely amazing common First and foremost, until a few months ago, we were both employed by the Kansas City Chiefs. I cheered you on for six years straight. And with that, I would assume we went to the same PR training. But since all of that obviously left your brain when you went to go give that speech,
Starting point is 01:41:03 I thought I'd be a good co-worker. Share my notes. Let's get started. Boy, she's deranged, isn't she? These are big. Vegas takeaway is you now represent a billion dollar organization. You are no longer just Harrison Butkert. You are now Harrison Butkert who plays for the Kansas City Chiefs and anything you say or do
Starting point is 01:41:26 that doesn't align with that brand just like the lesbians you hated in that video will be grounds for yeah isn't she amazing you know I looked at that and what a peach you know I
Starting point is 01:41:43 gonna die alone I can understand somebody like that being so over the top outraged that she acts like that but how in the world do you explain somebody who acts like that you know so cocky and everything and and then puts it out she's proud of that you know most people if they saw themselves in a mirror doing something like that, they would just cringe and recoil at it. But she publishes it. Absolutely amazing. And, of course, she's equivalent to the guy who kicked the winning Super Bowl field goal
Starting point is 01:42:18 because she was a cheerleader there. Well, Campus Crusade for Christ apparently now is ashamed of the term crusade, as ashamed of crusade as they are of Christ. They just call themselves CRU. And they are embracing the LGBT agenda, and they have active materials that are supporting it. CRU, formerly Campus Crusade for Christ, has been subjecting its staff to nearly seven hours of video materials promoting SSA, same-sex attraction. They call that Side B Christianity. No such thing.
Starting point is 01:42:57 Promoting patently unbiblical and damaging views on gender, sex, sin, and marriage. Rachel Gilson telling crew staffers that God is powerless over homosexual attraction. They've got a different God then. God's not powerless over anything. You know, God has provided mercy to Christ to pay for your sins so that he can be both just and merciful. But it doesn't just end there. God can save you from the power of sin, regardless of what sin it is.
Starting point is 01:43:34 These people have absolutely lost all contact with Christianity at the most fundamental levels. So comparisons between the church's supposed to bad treatment for the LGBT community and Nazi treatment of gays, full acceptance of homosexuality and transgender as cultures needing gospel contextualization like any other. Well, first of all, they're not ethnicities. Secondly, the good news doesn't change for different ethnicities. That's why I said, I don't even know what these people are about.
Starting point is 01:44:11 Within various training videos, crew staff are encouraged to agree with and to live out our theological teachings, both side A, open homosexuality and Christianity, and side B, celibate homosexuality, and to accept the unbiblical propositions that God creates people as homosexual and as transgender. Trainees are encouraged to change how they believe instead of what they believe in order to be sensitive to the LGBT community. We see these LGBT and other college ideologies, many of them, are supposedly, you know, they are putting themselves out there as if they are tolerant, but they're not.
Starting point is 01:44:53 Instead, they demand not that you tolerate, but that you celebrate what other people do. And as a result, they're in direct contradiction to the Bible, so they just reject it. You know, it's kind of interesting, too, to see that the fruit of this intolerance is now applying to everything. You know, all political, religious stuff. Even Richard Dawkins sees it. On university campuses, the principle of free speech, when I think that the only university I went to, University of California at Berkeley, the free speech movement in the 1960s, what a betrayal we're seeing now. Right.
Starting point is 01:45:32 With campuses all over the Western world, America and Britain, are denying people the right to come and speak at campuses. If you can't speak your mind on a university campus, where can you? I mean, that's what universities are about. It's about free speech. It's about being, being, it's about being exposed to ideas that you, you haven't met before, perhaps you're hostile to. If you only ever get exposed to ideas that you agree with, what kind of a university would that be? Yeah, the kind that we've got now.
Starting point is 01:46:12 Look, we have big disagreements with Richard Dawkins, but, you know, we have an agreement that we have a right to agree, to disagree, and he's been involved in a lot of debates. And I think, I like to see that, because I think he's been involved in a lot of debates. And I think I like to see that because I think he's been soundly defeated. You know, it's kind of interesting. I saw a short clip. I want to show this to you. This was Christopher Hitchens,
Starting point is 01:46:33 who again was one of the new atheists and wrote things like God is not great and so forth. This is two years before he died. He was doing a debate with Doug Wilson. And they're in the back of a car. And I don't know if they're coming from the debate or going to the debate. But here's what Christopher Hitchens had to say. Two things I thought were very interesting.
Starting point is 01:46:54 One of them was what he had to say about what he thought the most difficult argument for him to handle. For atheists to explain. And the second one was to talk about the fact that he doesn't really want to see Christianity go away. At some point, certainly, we were all asked, well, which is the best argument you've yet come up against on the other side? And I think every one of us picks the fine-tuning one as the most intriguing. The golden glocks. Yeah. Yeah. Fine tuning the one degree, well, one hair different to nothing. But even though it doesn't prove design, doesn't prove a designer, could all have happened
Starting point is 01:47:37 without it. You have to spend time thinking about it and working on it. It's not a trivial. We all say that. And then at one point, I think this is not on camera, I said if I could convert everyone in the world, not convert, if I could convince them to be non-belie. And I'd really done brilliantly and there was only one left. One more. And then it'd be done.
Starting point is 01:48:09 There'd be no more religion in the world. No more deism. I wouldn't do it. And Tolkien said, what do you mean you wouldn't do it? And I said, I don't quite know why I wouldn't do it. And it's not just because there would be nothing left to argue with
Starting point is 01:48:27 and no one left to argue with. It's not just that. There would be, though. Somehow, if I could drive it out of the world, I wouldn't. And the incredulity with which he looked at me stays with me still. Ah, isn't that interesting? The agility with which he looked stays with Mr. Edmondson. Isn't that interesting?
Starting point is 01:48:52 He recounts a conversation he had with Richard Dawkins, and he said, you know, if I could absolutely defeat Christianity, he said, and to the point where there's only one person left, and I would not try to eradicate that. And he said, and it's not just because i wouldn't have anybody to argue with he just loves to argue for the sake of arguing it's an intellectual exercise for these guys the debates uh he goes it would be that but he has something else about it and he said and i dawkins looked at me and just with incredulity and could not understand what that was about he said it was a look that stays with me to this day.
Starting point is 01:49:29 Now, that's two years before he died. So it's 2007 or 2009 they did that. But here we are about 15 years later, let's say, and we saw about a month or so ago we had Richard Dawkins now essentially saying the same thing cultural christian i thought it'd be interesting to show you these quotes that we had from richard dawkins i played them and um doug wilson who was sitting there you didn't hear him say anything but again they were on their way to or from a debate and um and uh and this is d Wilson responding to what Richard Dawkins said about a month or so ago, almost two months now. But before I do, real quickly, the other argument, what was the most difficult thing for him?
Starting point is 01:50:14 He said the fine-tuning aspect, that if things are just a thread differently, everything goes apart, right? You know, nothing works. Everything flies apart. Everything is apart, right? You know, nothing works. Everything flies apart. Everything is so precisely tuned. You've had scientists who say, well, you've got the anthropomorphic principle. It looks like the universe was designed specifically to support human life on Earth. But we know that can't be true. It looks like the DNA was designed by someone who's intelligent, and people discovered it said, yeah, that's got to be the case, but it can't be God. Right. Well, we had all this stuff just came together by accident and it's so precisely and finely tuned and it's not doesn't even have anything.
Starting point is 01:50:56 It's over and above even their evolutionary biological evolutionary things. We're talking about, you know the distance of uh uh the um earth to the sun you know a little bit closer we'd burn up or a freeze if it's a little bit further all these different types of things all of them together and there's so many of them there that argue for the presence of god it's why even the ancients said the fool has said in his heart there is no God. But here's what Dawkins said about cultural Christianity and Doug Wilson responding to it. Well, I must say, I was slightly horrified to hear that Ramadan is being promoted instead.
Starting point is 01:51:34 I do think that we are culturally a Christian country. That is true. All right. Let's have a little fun with this. I'm agreeing with Richard Dawkins thus far. I call myself a cultural Christian. I'm not a believer. But there's a distinction between being a believing Christian
Starting point is 01:51:55 and being a cultural Christian. And so, you know, I love hymns and Christmas carols. And I sort of feel at home in the Christian ethos. I really love apples, particularly the cosmic crisp spoons. I don't abide with orchards at all. Orchards are a real problem. Orchards are problematic. Apples, however, are great.
Starting point is 01:52:19 We are a Christian country in that sense. It's true that statistically the number of people who actually believe in Christianity is going down. The orchard is diminishing, but three cheers for apples. And I'm happy with that, but I would not be happy if... In fact, chainsaw the orchard. For example, we lost all our cathedrals and our beautiful parish churches. And the produce section in Safeway. We want to continue to go there and continue to enjoy our apples. I count myself a cultural Christian.
Starting point is 01:52:57 I think it would matter if we, certainly if we substituted any alternative religion, that would be truly dreadful. Yes, it would be truly dreadful. Yes, it would be truly dreadful. What's happening here is secular nonbelievers, atheists, are finally coming to grips with the fact that what we have been warning about for decades is coming to pass. And they don't like the fact that it's coming to pass. But I'm really grateful that Dawkins is acknowledging that he at least likes the fruit of the tree. Doesn't believe in the tree, but he likes the fruit. Well, so do we.
Starting point is 01:53:34 Which brings me to my supplementary point, which is that, as we know, church attendance is plummeting, but the building, the erection of mosques across Europe, I think 6,000 are under construction and there are many more, I mean, are being planned. So do you think, do you regard that as a problem? Do you think that matters? Yes, I do really. I mean, I, I, I, I don't, I might choose my words carefully. I mean, I, if I had to choose between Christianity and Islam, I'd choose Christianity every single time.
Starting point is 01:54:09 Amen. Okay. Amen. And I would give it maybe 2,000 more mosques being built, and he presents himself for baptism. I mean, it seems to me to be a fundamentally decent religion in a way that I think Islam is not. So this is one of the taunts that has been thrown at Christianity, that it's a decent middle class way of, you know, opium of the masses. It gets everybody to clean up and shower and go to church and live an orderly life. And it's starting to dawn on people that being surrounded by people who worship disorderly gods or gods of raw power is going to be no picnic at all. That's a great way to put it. The gods of raw power. As you saw with these people screaming in the forest, the offals, the effluent white female ultra liberals, those would be the gods of, of no compassion of raw power or that cheerleader who thinks that she is
Starting point is 01:55:11 the most important thing and she's more important than the field goal kicker who kill kicked a, what was it more than half of their points. I think they scored in the super bowl. I didn't follow it that closely. I didn't watch it. Uh, let me think some of the people who left some tips here on Rockfan. Andromeda1, thank you very much. And Michelle Obama, thank you for the tip.
Starting point is 01:55:31 It is a $5 tip forwarded to David directly from the Russian Federation, care of the Kremlin, irrefutable proof. There you go. Okay, so I'm a Russian sympathizer, I guess. I got proof of that. By the way, so while we're talking about money, it was interesting that the House of Representatives yesterday voted to prevent creation of CBDCs.
Starting point is 01:55:53 Well, before you celebrate, understand that no such bill exists in the Senate. Therefore, it's not even going to come up for a vote in the Senate. Doesn't have anybody. No Republicans are pushing this in the Senate. Therefore, it's not even going to come up for a vote in the Senate. Doesn't have anybody. No Republicans are pushing this in the Senate. Rand, Mike Lee, all you, what are you guys out there? Uh, Lindsay, come on, Lindsay. Uh, they're not going to offer that in the Senate at all. Uh, even if they did, do you think they could override a Biden veto? Because this is, you know, something that is near and dear to the heart of Biden. And it was two years ago that he told every bureaucracy under him, all of the deep state under the president,
Starting point is 01:56:36 all the deep state is under the president, by the way, which Trump didn't drain. He didn't put a leash or a muzzle on any of it really uh but again um you know they he told all them to run this thing through so he would veto it even if the senate put it out but senate doesn't even have a bill there so this is virtue signaling yes it is and to who are they virtue signaling well tom emmer is the one who brought in. He's the House Majority Whip. He's the number three with the Republicans in the House. And he is very tied in with his crypto donors. And so he's doing this to curry favor with the crypto donors, just as Machiavelli and Mike has done things to curry favor with the military industrial complex,
Starting point is 01:57:22 his Israeli donors, and all the rest of this stuff. It would halt efforts of the administrative state under Biden from issuing a financial surveillance tool that Tom Emmer says, if this is not done correctly, this financial surveillance tool will fundamentally alter the lives of every American. Which begs the question, is there a correct way to do a financial surveillance tool of all Americans? Or is that something that should be rejected? What an awful and awkward way to phrase that from Tom Emmer. Dusty Johnson voted for the bill. He said, yeah, we've seen this type of thing and how it can be used
Starting point is 01:58:03 against the Canadian truck truckers for example and then you have this from axios who want to explain it to you just in case you don't understand that crypto is not cbdc but that they are you know that that cbdc is designed to destroy crypto thought bubble, for those who are not steeped in blockchain culture, in other words, for people who are so ignorant that all they do for the news is to watch Axios, it might seem surprising that Emmer, a proponent of the cryptocurrency industry, would oppose government getting involved in this technology. Amazing. Does Axios think you don't know the difference between crypto and CBDC,
Starting point is 01:58:55 that you don't know that CBDC has been designed and these politicians want to destroy crypto to put CBDC in? Or do they not know, or do they think that you don't know? I mean, what is going on with this? And as Coindesk points out, it's not going to pass because there is no bill for that. And there was another bill that came out as well. 71 Democrats joined 208 Republicans in voting for the Financial Innovation and Technology for the 21st Century Act. They call it FIT-21, a crypto marketing structure that would build, that would give the U S commodity futures trading commission,
Starting point is 01:59:29 greater spot market authority over digital assets. Well, that is, it's nothing that bill is nothing more than a bureaucratic empires jockeying for position and to try to, you know know build up their little fiefdoms the other one that was the CBDC anti-surveillance state act that's put together by Tom Emmer that one that was pretty much along party
Starting point is 01:59:58 lines they had all Democrats voted to push through CBDC. So just remember that. But again, neither of those are going to make it through. Visa, on the other hand, you know, when Tom Emmer is saying, well, you know, if we don't do this right, we got to make sure that we do this right. This might be what he's thinking of. Visa has introduced, as they refer to it, the one card to rule them all. How long are we going to have these people
Starting point is 02:00:32 who are doing this evil stuff making references to the Lord of the Rings and comparing themselves to the evil ones in the Lord of the Ring? You know, you had Palantir, right? He was doing data mining and surveillance of everybody they they identify with the you know with the dark side and of course these people do the same thing visa you know one card to rule them all virtual or otherwise they said. Well, I don't know. I guess if you embrace the evil,
Starting point is 02:01:06 the totalitarian powers and the surveillance of these fictional characters, maybe you're trying to tell us something, right? Hans, are we the baddies? Visa flexible credential. The ability to access different funding sources on an existing payment card. A line of credit or checking account to loyalty points, prepaid debit or installments,
Starting point is 02:01:29 shopping, all of this, living in the future. Payments where one card can tap into different types of funding sources. They also announced on the same day that in the future, these cards will remove the unique serial numbers on the cards, but instead we'll have biometric data on them. It'll be part of a global digital ID verification. How appropriate the visa we'll be putting this out because this is a way to push these vaccine passports.
Starting point is 02:01:58 All these are other permission slips from the global totalitarian government on you. The thing is, they said, this is visa. the thing is, card numbers don't prove that you're you. They just prove that someone somewhere possesses a string of numbers. But some things are uniquely you. Your face, your fingerprint, your biometrics are yours and yours alone. And you belong to the state, right?
Starting point is 02:02:26 I didn't say that. I'm saying that. They are the key to the next generation of security and payments. This is an all-new level of know your customer. They know us by all of our biometrics. And they will use that global id that's your global slave id they'll use it to um grant you permission to do whatever they're going to grant you permission or deny permission to do whatever they don't want you to do and and of course uh we know where this
Starting point is 02:03:01 is all headed they want to control all food they want is all headed. They want to control all food. They want to control all energy. They want to control all money. And so we need to do what we can to try to get out of that control grid, whether you're talking about the energy grid or the food, that type of stuff. Money, skills, things like that have to be outside of the grid. So work on getting outside of the grid when it comes to energy as i point out yesterday they're not only um you know they're working very hard to shut down the control grid even as they mandate that we use everything make everything electric and put it on the grid and um uh uh rumble chat has been demanding dog cam i have put some pictures up of the of the dogs bullet what does that mean been demanding dog cam what do you mean by that um the rumble chat oh oh okay rumble the
Starting point is 02:03:54 rumble chat not the rumble app i read the rumble chat but i was thinking rumble it's like why does rumble want to have a dog cam also eric peters is ready okay all right so you can show some pictures of the dogs and we'll go to him just want to say uh david knight dot gold if you want to get out of their financial system there's some easy ways there there we go and there's a little guy he's the adopted orphan uh that travis got that's a nice picture of him and um and that is uh your wife's one of your wife's dogs she's got two uh travis found one and then um his wife has got uh two dogs those are great pictures travis uh that is hardly recognizable that does
Starting point is 02:04:32 not look too much like ringo i don't know there's scout there he is that's the that's uh my dog there so yeah yeah, love Scout. Anyway, you want to make sure that you get outside of their control grids. As these guys are making up their own unique power grid, as they shut ours down, even the artificial intelligence people, as they get rid of meat and milk and all the rest of this stuff, or whatever excuse they can think of,
Starting point is 02:05:07 you still need to have that financial aspect. That is a very important thing. Get independent of them. Get something that is going to be completely private. Maintain your ability to use cash by using cash. Catherine Austin Fitz talks about having cash Friday. Well, try to use cash today with your payments. Because if you don't use cash, the stores will stop accepting it.
Starting point is 02:05:30 We've already seen this happening in several different places. But also, for the coming dark days, if we have to operate in a black market, gold and silver is going to give you its real money as real intrinsic value. It's not anything that is controlled by the government or any other system. It's off of the internet. It's completely private. You can go to David Knight dot gold, and that'll take you to Tony Arterman's wise wolf gold. You can buy gold or silver, small or large quantities there.
Starting point is 02:06:01 He can help you if you've got a gold or silver IRA or want one. And of course you can also, gold or silver IRA or want one. And of course, you can also, this is something that Tony has done that's unique, set up Wise Wolf Gold. He's got several different levels there, and you can buy in at different levels and gradually save this stuff on a month-to-month basis. So you pick the amount that you want and the different tiers that are there. But you still get, even if you're getting a small amount, you still get the advantage of a group buy.
Starting point is 02:06:28 So again, davidknight.gold will take you to Tony Ardman. And we're going to take a quick break. And when we come back, we're going to have Eric Peters joining us. Always a pleasure to have Eric on. 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.
Starting point is 02:07:11 They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary. But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God. That is what we have in common. That is what they want to take away. Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation. They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us. It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide. Please share the information and links you'll find at thedavidknightshow.com. Thank you for listening. Thank you for listening.
Starting point is 02:07:55 Thank you for sharing. If you can't support us financially, please keep us in yourers at ericpetersauto.com and it's always a pleasure to have eric did i get that right is it auto or autos which autos is plural plural okay uh so eric peter's autos plural.com uh he talks about mobility and liberty and those are a couple things that we really can't live without and it's always enjoy eric peter's style of writing is very uh engaging and he's got a lot of memes that he intersperses through but i love his insights what's up eric what do you what's on your plate well let's see where do we even begin how about devolution that's what i've been preoccupying myself the last couple of days are you familiar with that what is devolution no i'm not okay it is this theory that has been circulating
Starting point is 02:09:01 underground amongst the hardcore Trump people that maintains that Trump is actually still the president and control of an operation headed by the military with Mark Milley, the, you know, the chairman of the joint chiefs, uh, being the guy who was sort of the, the, the second in command, the lieutenant of Trump. And they're doing all of the, everything that's been going on for the past going on four years has been part of this operation to expose the the black hats that's what they call them um and the white hats mark millie of all people but they would pick to be their their their guy mark millie come on it's unbelievable yeah go ahead well and they say that you know that's the evidence that the operation is going on because after all all, Trump appointed Mark Milley.
Starting point is 02:09:45 And look, Mark Milley's still there. He hasn't been removed. And so essentially, Biden is literally sort of a fictitious front. He's not really in charge of anything. It's all just a gigantic show for our benefit. And everything's going to be set aright shortly when the orange man triumphantly returns the trumpets and Jesus' hand on his shoulder and reenters the White House come January. Oh, and a lot of that is, you know, you talk about with Jesus' hand on his shoulder. A lot of that is coming from these faux Christians. Julie Green, you know, and all these people making all these false prophecies. And they kept saying, well, he's not leaving.
Starting point is 02:10:27 Trump's not leaving. And then when he was gone, well, he'll be coming back. He'll be back. One of my oldest friends, we've known each other since we were kids. And, you know, we used to laugh at the way Clinton manipulated Christians, Bill Clinton, by clutching that oversized Bible with the gold leaf. You know, Clinton, oh, look, he really, you know, he's a good man. And we would ridicule people who bought into that.
Starting point is 02:10:49 But now somehow these same people see Trump parroting Christian sounds and phrases. And they say, look, he's really, he's the reincarnation of Cyrus. That's another thing that they say. Oh, yeah. That he's Cyrus. And they've got coins with his his profile cyrus it's it's as it's as or more insane on the right as all of the stuff that the insanity that we've been dealing with on the left you know with regard to all of the sickness kabuki and the masks
Starting point is 02:11:19 and everything else they're immune to facts they're immune to facts. They're immune to reason. They just have this sort of this messianic religious belief in their secular savior with the spray tan. You know, it really is concerning. As a Christian, I hate to see the ignorance of Christianity, the idolatry. I hate to see the ignorance of politics as well, because these people really don't understand how things work when you talk to them and you say uh he locked us all down he did the oh no he didn't do it it was the bad democrat governors it's like you know the republican governors were just as bad and it was trump was paying them to do that it's absolutely insane but you know when you're talking about all this stuff we've got arrests that are going on and everything and somebody
Starting point is 02:12:00 sent me um uh an email that was talking about i forget the guy's name i had it and i was trying to find it here i've had it to talk about it uh this week i can't remember the guy's name offhand but he's putting out this stuff and he's a new guy it's not steve pachinik this time but it's somebody else who has been in the military side of intelligence uh just like steve pachinik just like mike flynn and all the rest of the stuff. And he is telling everybody that there's arrests that are going on, like you were just saying. And that's exactly what Steve Pachinik did with the sting two days after the election. He said, we've got 20,000 National Guard.
Starting point is 02:12:36 They're out there right now. They're arresting people. And I said, there's absolutely no way that that's possible. You can't do that without people noticing that, number one. Number two, he had this story about how they had set up and blockchain watermarked uh the ballots he just threw every buzzword that he could put in and there and so i started opposing that that's what got me fired uh was for opposing that because that was laying the foundation for alex's stop the steel scam where
Starting point is 02:13:01 he ripped people off for unbelievable amounts of money and also for trump's um you know save america thing and roger stone said this is going to be great where it's going to be like falling off a log to make money and it was it was unbelievable how they ripped off their own people and then sent them to january the 6th and the faults hope that they could actually do something and then abandoned these people trump said i'll meet you there he walked away alex was. He walked away. Alex was there. He walked away.
Starting point is 02:13:26 He went to the other side of town. Nothing ever was done to help any of these people. They left them twisting in the wind. Will they never learn? It's just amazing. Apparently not. And now I find myself in the very opposition, on the one hand, of having been excommunicated
Starting point is 02:13:40 by people who were on the left for the pandemic, for not playing along with that nonsense. But now people that I've the left to sort of pandemic, you know, for not playing along with that nonsense. But now people that I've been friends with for many years on the right are casting a suspicious eye at me because I don't buy into all of this Trump stuff and don't worship the orange man. And increasingly, I'm really concerned that they're actually going to let him win and then tank the economy. And then they're going to blame every patriarchal, anti-trans, misogynistic white male that they can find who are all parts of our democracy.
Starting point is 02:14:13 Yeah, they'll come for that Kansas City field goal kicker and they'll burn him in effigy. It's just, you know, it is. But seriously, it is dangerous because, you know, Hillary, and I've said this when, you know, when it was all happening in 2020 and when we had the election 2020. I said you would have never, ever heard anybody saying that Hillary was really on our side with all this stuff. Right. And it was unnecessary to have Hillary because all the left really wanted this stuff. They love to be given orders and they love to give orders.
Starting point is 02:14:44 They just want to find their little niche in the pecking order. And, you know, they can they can bully people that are underneath them and they love that kind of stuff. And so you didn't need to have Hillary in there to pull this stuff off. But you had Trump in there. And I said, you know, Trump did everything the globalists did at the same time they were doing it. As a matter of fact, he went further. He provided the money for all of this stuff for both the Democrats and Republicans. He provided the money for Pfizer and Moderna to get this stuff and to poison the world. He provided all that stuff. And you had people like Alex saying, well, he's it's 4D chess. And Alex is actually telling people you can take the Trump
Starting point is 02:15:18 vaccine. It's different than the Gates vaccine. It's kind of like sugar water. Yeah, that's what it is. It's like sugar water, you know, just making this stuff up. And so, you know, it was more dangerous to have Trump there. They didn't get everybody, but they got more people by having Trump there because they knew they already had the left. But here's the thing that concerns me, Eric, and that is when we're coming up here, what is the other distinguishing thing that we see as you talked about the insanity of the people on the right, just like the insanity of the people on the left i say you know the people on the left yeah they got trump derangement syndrome they can't stand this guy personally they hate his very essence right but the people on the right they're operating under the strong delusion uh they've created this figure in their own
Starting point is 02:15:58 imagination that is nothing at all what donald trump is and so you got the people on the left who are deranged the people on the right who are delusional but one thing they both share and that is they believe that everything needs to be and can be fixed by the right person in washington and so they're going to fight over that we can have a civil war over the oval office very easily um you know whichever side doesn't get its way and this all of this stuff is really setting us up for a civil war for whoever doesn't get their way because they think that all the solutions are in Washington. The only way they're going to get away from a civil war is to convince people that Washington is not where the solution is. The solution is at the local level. The solution is ground up.
Starting point is 02:16:42 And it's not from top down yeah and it's to purge somehow this authoritarian reflex that has somehow embedded itself in the american psyche on the left and the right it's great to be told what to do and to tell people what to do and it afflicts both sides equally that's right yeah that's the thing that disturbs me so much how uh i i've said the the republic the democrats of my youth have become the communist of my youth and the republicans have become the democrats of my youth you know and it's just to see the whole country slipping into this authoritarian idolatry that we got to have this leader who's going to save us and we see elements of it with elon musk as well you know they think
Starting point is 02:17:23 elon musk is going to save them as well. He's on our side. He single-handedly saved free speech. And look at the price that he paid, you know, and all the rest of this stuff. I talked about it yesterday, Eric. You know, it's kind of interesting. We had this totally ridiculous and absurd idea being sold by the Democrats that Trump was supporting this video that was out there that talked about a unified Reich, right? I couldn't even find that when I looked at it. I had to look at a still
Starting point is 02:17:51 frame that somebody had grabbed and then circled it in red. And it was a template that somebody had used. And it wasn't the Trump administration. It was totally bogus. But they sat there for two days, you know, debating and wringing their hands over whether or not trump is trying to establish a fourth reich or something like that and then with trump they do the same thing with this uh boilerplate uh uh order from the fbi to search mar-a-lago and use deadly force if necessary they never care about deadly force being used against you and i or the general public right they don't pay any attention to the fact that this is actually a boilerplate thing that is there and that needs to be shut down. You know, the FBI needs to be, as Steve Friend, I've interviewed him, he's a whistleblower
Starting point is 02:18:33 who refused to do a, you know, a raid that could be lethal against some peaceful January the Sixers. And so, you know, he lost his job there with the FBI. And what he said was, he said, first of all, we need to get rid of the FBI. But he said, if we can't get rid of them, there's no support for that, at least get rid of their weapons and have them go to an area. If they've got some federal laws that they need to be enforced, let them work with a local enforcement and decentralize some of this stuff.
Starting point is 02:19:02 But that's not the message that anybody's getting. They're not looking at that and saying, yeah, you know, the FBI is out of control. No, it's only if it affects Trump that we care. It's an ideological barking match on both sides. The level of the discourse now appeals to somebody with an IQ of 80 who is in the grip of hysteria. It's really striking. Both sides, Trump, Biden, left and right. And if you go back 30 or 40 years
Starting point is 02:19:28 and listen to what was typically said at the national level in politics, there was statism certainly back then, but the level of discourse was more adult, more reasonable. And generally speaking, they actually talked in complete sentences and formulated their position on policy. It wasn't this this derision
Starting point is 02:19:45 and name calling again at the level of a particularly bright middle schooler yeah yeah that's what it's degenerated into instead of having debates uh which of course will never open up the debates to multiple parties or anything but instead of having debates we have this reality tv show where as you point out they have this name-calling and lawfare that is happening out there and all the rest of this stuff. The whole point of this New York trial, I think, was just to bring up Trump's sordid past and air his dirty laundry. They don't have any charges there.
Starting point is 02:20:15 They're chief witness, an admitted liar on the stand, and admitted that he stole money. The whole thing is a joke, but it's gotten everybody glued to this stuff. It's absolutely crazy, isn't it? But there is an upside to it, I think, in that it's revelatory. What's going on now with these lawfare malicious persecutions of Trump,
Starting point is 02:20:35 it's more than just about Trump. To me, it has made people aware that what we're dealing with is the exercise of power, and whoever has it can exercise it, and there are no limits to the exercise of power and whoever has it can exercise it and there are no limits to the exercise of power that it's arbitrary it's capricious uh it's everything that our country is not supposed to be about and which is you're supposed to be giving your fair day in court the law is supposed to be applied equally uh to everybody and so on uh and obviously
Starting point is 02:21:01 that's not the case and in a way it's good for people on our side because i think it helps to delegitimize the authoritarian state well you know i you're right but i i think our side is not necessarily the MAGA group because i think the MAGA people are out there it's like yeah when trump gets in he's going to do that to them and worse that's true and again i here's trump is like the mason dixon line i've called him for the new civil war uh because if he gets in he's going to double down and he's going to do even worse to these people and his people want it to happen that way don't they well and he'll not only do it to people on the putative enemies list you know the left
Starting point is 02:21:33 they're going to go after people like us too oh yeah because we don't tell the party life that's right that's right yeah oh they these uh manga people hate me as much as they hate the the leftist uh i mean yeah they i'll be up against the wall as well. That's fine. I don't care. Not changing any of this stuff. Let's talk a little bit about artificial intelligence. Because, you know, you and I have talked so much over the years about what the real goal is.
Starting point is 02:21:59 And you and I had this conversation years ago about how, well, you think you're going to be allowed to have electric car no you're not they're shutting down the grid uh they're going to get rid of the internal combustion engines and then they won't allow you to shut your car as a matter of fact your car will become a very expensive battery to serve their grid and now we see this being imposed on people but i think we had a different turn this week we We have now Altman, and it's also come out that some of these other companies, our AI companies, are out there creating their own power companies. They're going to have their own private grid to run these power-hungry big processors that they have for the large language model things, right?
Starting point is 02:22:45 And so they're going to have their own independent power grid. I think the feds will have their own power grid. I think they'll shut us off, but I think they're going to have their own independent power grid, and we can see this happening. And when Zero Hedge looks at it, they go, hey, an investment opportunity, because this is going to be the next big thing. It's going to be bigger than, you know, you've made a lot of money with artificial intelligence, and of course, NVIDIA had theirout uh financial report because they're selling the
Starting point is 02:23:09 you know they're selling the picks and shovels of this new gold rush they're selling the gpu cards the super expensive super fast gpu cards uh and everybody was astounded at what they sold but i said even better than that it's the fact that these companies are now getting into their own power grid and we're going to need to have power except we're not going to have access to it but they're going to get people investing in that i mean what do you see this uh are we going to be able to roll that part of it back you know the artificial intelligence which is really fake intelligence i don't know you know i think we're going to have to decentralize and decouple i see that is probably the only way as As long as we continue to operate within
Starting point is 02:23:45 this system that's not of our creation, that is under their control, well, we're going to be subservient to their control. I wrote an article the other day that kind of dovetails with this with regard to the EVs. I've been trying to publicize the fact it's not commonly known that to use these EV fast chargers, you have to use credit cards or debit cards and not only that you typically have to have an app on your phone in order to be able to use them so they're cashless and i find that very interesting you know it's it's another step on the road toward this this interlocking spider web of control by exercising control over your finances you know it's it's it's not just the the dissipation of
Starting point is 02:24:25 the anonymity that that cash provides but if they have that that real-time access to your ability to buy things they can deny you the right to buy things they can restrict when you're allowed to charge how much you're allowed to charge and what are you going to do about it you know i posted a kind of satirical uh thing that i pulled from the the Idiocracy, which a lot of people listening will remember. And it opens up with a scene of the guy looking at a Carl's Jr. kiosk. You know, are you ready for your extra big ass fries? And there's no appealing this machine. It's an AI machine, you know, and you just touch the screen and maybe this is the AI behind it decides to let you pay for your big ass fries. You can have your fries, but if not, what are you going to do? Smash your fist on the screen and then the troops come to drag you away. your big ass fries you can have your fries but if not what are you
Starting point is 02:25:05 going to do smash your fist on the screen and then you know the troops come to drag you away that's the kind of that's the kind of future that they've got in mind for us oh yeah yeah and then of course idiocracy i guess didn't see the fact that it's i'm sorry you've already had too much of that this week right you've had too much meat you can't have any more meat uh because that's what they're trying to shut down and of course of course, you know, just before you came on, I was talking about the fact that Visa is going hard into biometrics now. It is all about the global ID. It is all about putting an ear tag on you. You used to do this for years during this pandemic stuff.
Starting point is 02:25:38 You talked about, you know, putting the ear tag on like a cattle, right? You had pictures where you would do that. I think it's apt,'t it yeah you know you think okay again if you take them at their at face value what they say that it's urgently necessary that we transition over to electric vehicles that as many people as possible uh get rid of the car that they're driving right now that has a gas engine and get get an electric car why would they want to put obstacles in the way of that why would they want to for example a lot of older people don't have credit cards. There are people who just prefer to use cash. Why would you want to just essentially ghettoize them and keep them from getting these electric cars that are so
Starting point is 02:26:14 necessary? Why would Biden slap 100% tariff on low-cost Chinese cars to bring down the cost so that more people could afford to buy these things. After all, there's a climate crisis. It's an existential crisis, they tell us. Yet somehow it's more important to put a tariff to protect UAW workers than it is to get more EVs into circulation, which tells you really what this agenda is all about. Yeah, yeah, it does. It does.
Starting point is 02:26:39 And, you know, you talked about it for the longest time, you know, with the T-shirt that you got about the sheep and the ear tags about the cattle and all this stuff, and it is, you know, they, they treated us like livestock, like their cattle, but now it is kind of interesting. I look at this as they're trying to morph over bird flu and to cattle flu. I'm suspicious that they're going to try to if they think that they can't inject us i think they want to inject all of our food and get it into us that way and then number number one number two have an excuse to do mass culling of cattle like they've been doing mass culling
Starting point is 02:27:18 of birds in the past don't you find it interesting that they are checking going through and looking at milk they're not looking at, going through and looking at milk? They're not looking at chicken eggs. They're looking at milk from cattle. They haven't found any cattle. They found a couple of people who got pink eye and they're trying to make that into bird flu. This is the most ridiculous thing. And yet they've already manufactured 4.8 million doses of bird flu vaccine.
Starting point is 02:27:42 I read something the other day. I'm sure you did as well that they are working on and may have already uh designed and gotten ready uh a vaccine for cattle to deal with methane emissions in order to yeah the perfect checks all the boxes where you got well i mean implicitly in that if if cattle flashiness is the big problem well we've got what seven billion odd people on this planet who are also producing flatulence so is it inconceivable that they will then say everybody on the planet has to be vaccinated for that because after all the climate crisis demands it we've got to do something to prevent this existential crisis from metastasizing yeah we could see that coming
Starting point is 02:28:20 couldn't we and today i before you came on i said look at we got statements from glaxosmith klein astrazeneca and other vaccine companies saying yes we will have vaccines for climate change for humans can we just have bino you know they wouldn't let us have ivermectin now they're not going to let us have bino you know it'd be funny if it weren't so frightening yeah because you know the last time they framed these shots in the context of public health, well, now they're going to notch it up a little bit and say it's an existential crisis. It's not merely a matter of stopping the spread. It's if we don't do this, you literally are a threat to humanity, to the planet,
Starting point is 02:28:58 if you don't go along with being injected with whatever these drugs are. That's right. That's right. Well, you know, you and I have talked about the electric cars for a long time and i remember we we talked about we talked about first time i talked to you it was about crony capitalism and elon musk but um uh also i played a clip today of all the stuff that's going on with the cyber track it's unbelievable what's happening with that people one guy nearly had his finger taken off and they did put uh um uh they did put um uh carrots in and and shut the thing and it just chops the carrots off like it's a knife or something it's amazing that's
Starting point is 02:29:30 the the frunk uh hood lid that's there but um apart from that we were laughing about the fact that uh they they talked about uh electric cars being very quiet and that it might result in more pedestrians being hit. And so they were talking about different sounds they could come up with. I remember somebody came up with it or we just talked about making them sound like the Jetsons car. That sounds like a little tweeting. It's embarrassing. I had a hundred thousand something dollar Mercedes electric vehicle that did that. Are we 12 years old again? You know, I mean, what grown man or woman wants to drive around in a car that's making cartoon sounds? Can't you at least have a more economical option where you put a playing card and the spokes of the wheel?
Starting point is 02:30:25 I mean, you'd be into it. Exactly. And we were kids when we did that. We were nine years old. Yeah. You know, now grown adults are doing this, and it brings us right back to theocracy. You know, the reduction of the populace to the level of middle schoolers, and not bright ones either.
Starting point is 02:30:39 Well, and of course, you know, it's desperately needed because now electric cars are twice as likely to hit pedestrians, according to researchers. They've already killed them because of their weight. That's right. Yeah, that's right. Because the way it truly is amazing. And then they had a Google. They ask it questions about blinker fluid, and it's uh, ways to change your blinker fluid.
Starting point is 02:31:05 It's like your Johnson rod, right? it's completely artificial. This intelligence, isn't it? Uh, it's amazing where this stuff is going and people just to follow along as if there's, um, it's no big deal. Uh, you also, I saw your article about the Camaro picked up many different places. Yeah. Excellent article about goodbye Camaro. Uh uh tell us a little bit about that well uh the camaro
Starting point is 02:31:29 has been canceled uh this will be the final year for the car and of course it's an iconic car uh it is one of many uh cars that came out in the wake of the introduction in 1964 of the mustang which was one of the most successful cars in the history of the car business and created that genre of the so-called pony car named after the Mustang being the name for a horse. And all these things proliferated because it was such a great car. It was a great concept. It was fun. It wasn't quite as big and broody as a muscle car, which appealed mostly to younger guys. This was a car that didn't necessarily have to have a V8 and could still be a lot of fun. And these were just very successful cars. And Camaro was a very successful car and Firebird, which was the sister car of the Camaro for many, many years. But now a combination of forces have made it very difficult to continue to produce these vehicles.
Starting point is 02:32:18 Ford is the last one standing again. Dodge had to cancel the Challenger again because it just got to the point where they couldn't continue to build those cars at a price point that made them viable in the marketplace and it's the same problem with camaro base price now i think for the thing is about 35 000 uh you know and by the time you get up to the v8 car now you're pushing 50 000 how many people can afford a car like that not many that's That's right. Now to GM's credit, you know, I will give them sort of a backhanded compliment. They didn't do what, what Dodge has done, which was to slap the Camaro name, uh, on a device on a battery powered contraption and
Starting point is 02:32:55 pretend that that's a Camaro. They're letting it walk off the field with some dignity intact. It's just sad to see. Yeah, that's true. Yeah, I remember the Mustang. Boy, that really was a big deal when I was in school. And, of course, I remember my best friends, their dad had an old at the time. It was like eight years old. The first generation of the Mustang, the really small one. And it was a convertible. And we used to, because it was old at that time, eight years years you didn't typically keep cars for eight years back right uh they didn't last that long in general but you know so it was a it was a beat-up car the bottom of it was even
Starting point is 02:33:33 rusted out so if you're sitting in the back seat you had to straddle a hole in the and you're seeing the road going underneath you and everything but it was a blast it was a raw experience i think that's what got me to where i wanted to have a um a small convertible roadster so eventually um after my first car was a mustang it was 68 fastback mustang but the next one was um a tramp spitfire which was an adventure but uh it was i wanted to get something that was small and and convertible like that because i had so much fun in the in the mustang and we used to do all kinds of stuff with that car took it everywhere beat that thing to death and it just kept going but uh those cars were a lot of fun and as you point out they were cheap they were affordable um you know it could be
Starting point is 02:34:19 one that was a couple years old could be a starter car for somebody yeah i mean when i was in high school in the 80s the parking lot was full of old Mustangs and old Camaros and all kinds of vehicles like that. And these are teenagers. I was one of them, you know, who could afford to have a car like that and afford to put gas in it on a part-time after-school McDonald's job. Yeah. My friends all did that. Now, you know, that car is for basically affluent middle-aged and older men. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:34:46 Because affluent middle-aged men are the only ones who can afford to spend $40,000 on a car, plus the insurance, which is just beyond reason at this point to try to put insurance on a car like that. Yeah. So they priced themselves out of the market. Yeah. Yeah, it is sad to see what's happening. And, of course, when you look at insurance, it's not just the cars. It's the houses as well. Look at what they have done in Florida.
Starting point is 02:35:12 They've gone in. The insurance industry is going to make people homeless there. All these people went in and bought condos a few years ago, and now they've come in with new rules and new inspections and all this kind of stuff. These people are going to wound up. They might have spent $130 130 000 for their condo and they're getting a 100 000 assessment to uh to have essentially uh retroactive building codes imposed upon them and they can't they're trapped and they can't get rid of this i mean it's the most outrageous thing i don't know
Starting point is 02:35:43 i wonder if uh desantis republicans don't do anything about that or if they're completely captive to this big industry the insurance industry well they're captive to it and i think what's ultimately going to happen is people are going to do something about it with regard to car insurance is i think very close to a point at which people are going to just say you know what i'm done paying come get me you know per hl mankin they are going to just say, you know what, I'm done paying. Come get me. No parade shall make it, and they're going to raise the Jolly Roger. And just, we live in a world now where to be a responsible person and to just try to live your life and not cause problems is to be a criminal. So why not embrace it?
Starting point is 02:36:18 Why not just stop obeying their rules? They don't obey them. They're flooding the country with people who don't have to even show ID. Just come on in. Here's a $ ten thousand dollar credit card to go ahead and go shopping yeah you know if that guy gets into a car without a without valid license and registration runs a red light kills somebody what are they going to do they're not going to do anything because they can't get any money out of them if we went on and if we don't if we get caught we're not wearing our seat belts they'll probably pull a gun on us and hand us a piece of paper.
Starting point is 02:36:45 And if we don't pay it, you can bet your baby they're going to find a way to make us pay it. Yeah. Oh, absolutely. Absolutely, that's going to happen. I mean, just look what they just did that call for that tournament. Did you see that? Well, the guy who was – they released the video. They thought it vindicated what they were doing, and it completely did the opposite.
Starting point is 02:37:03 It did not vindicate what they were doing. They've got traffic control cops there telling people what they were doing and it completely did it did the opposite it did not vindicate what they were doing they've got uh traffic control cops they're telling people what they could do he's a he was the number one ranked golfer and so he slowly really slowly and you can see the picture he's got his foot on the brake and he's just creeping at about two miles an hour and this cop turns around and runs and grabs hold of his car and he stopped right away but the cop lied and said that he was being drugged by this this car and everything they put him in handcuffs i said we're going to get him and then they released this footage the police department had thinking somehow that it validated their story it contradicted what they had said about that it's truly amazing well they're not very bright which is a good thing and they're very authoritarian but they're
Starting point is 02:37:42 not very bright and there's an interesting thing too If you get into the literature about psychopathy, you know, the, the upside to psychopathy is these people think they're invulnerable. They think that we're so dumb that they can fool us every single time. And that makes them arrogant and that makes them careless. And then they get caught. And that's a very good example of that. Yeah. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 02:38:00 Yeah. Uh, well, you know, uh, we were talking about the Google Gemini, which drew all those pictures of reimagining everybody. The life of Washington. That's right. Yeah, exactly. You know, reinventing our historical figures as all female, black, or Asian, you know. Those same people who put out the blinker fluid instructions.
Starting point is 02:38:23 And we've also now got the godfather of ai saying that there's a consensus with all the experts eric that within uh just a few years uh ai is going to exceed human intelligence i i wonder which group of people they're they're looking at is that these these uh highly potter and people on on the left and right that they're comparing it to. I don't know where they come up with something like that. This isn't my area of expertise, so what I'm about to say is my opinion on it. But I feel as though when they talk about AI, all they're really talking about is a highly sophisticated computer that has highly sophisticated programming.
Starting point is 02:39:00 But I don't think, I don't believe, at least I hope that it is not possible to create a machine that can truly think in the way that human beings can. That's right. That can evaluate external reality and form a judgment. And the judgment is filtered through empathy and compassion and reason. And it's not just a cold calculating machine. Because if I'm wrong about this, we're in real trouble. And it's very scary. Well,
Starting point is 02:39:26 you know, and I had talked about this earlier this week. There's one guy who did understand what it was. And he said, I found when I try to explain this to people who don't know how artificial intelligence works, he said, I found the best analogy is just to explain it to them and say,
Starting point is 02:39:41 you know, how does it answer these questions? It doesn't even know that it's being asked a question. It's just a big matching game. It looks at these different matrices and tries to find the best fit. And it goes, and that's why it can sound and sometimes be really brilliant. And then immediately afterwards, it can hallucinate and do these really strange things because it's just building these matrices and comparing that to what you're asking it for for the best fit.
Starting point is 02:40:08 And that's really the way this stuff works. It's not thinking at all. It doesn't even understand the questions that you're asking it. It's just doing rough comparisons. But see, that's the thing that makes it so dangerous because this matching capability that it's doing is really, I think, the core feature of how they want to use it. I think the key use of artificial intelligence is to be able to identify all these biometrics that they got on everybody, to be able to identify us very quickly, to be able to use this in a surveillance context. I think that has always been the core issue of it, especially when you look at the people who have designed and funded this thing.
Starting point is 02:40:46 I think it's all about surveillance, and I think it's also about propaganda. It's a con game to get people to think that it truly can think that it really is an expert. And look at how easy it was to fool people. I mean, if people could believe that Fauci was a scientist, I guess they could believe that these machines are thinking. Well, I can speak to in the context of cars uh there's a lack of nuance there and what they really want is sort of a one-size-fits- all solution for everybody that doesn't allow for the exercise of judgment in a particular situation for example these new cars that i test drive they've all got the what they call advanced
Starting point is 02:41:22 driver assistance technologies that will do things like hit the brakes or try to jerk the car back into the lane. And like you said, they're all predicated on this batch of assumptions based on the conditions that they assumed when they programmed it. And if something arises that's outside of those parameters, it may not be appropriate or often isn't appropriate. And that's when you realize you're not really dealing with something that thinks. It's just something that is reacting within the boundaries of programming.
Starting point is 02:41:52 And it might be very sophisticated programming, but it is not genuinely thinking in the way that you and I think. That's right. That's right. I've seen that all my life. I remember when I was in college and we just had these very primitive PCs, some of them we're building ourselves as kits. And we had command line interpreters. There's no graphical user interface, anything like that. And there was a program that was very effective and it just would ask you kind of open-ended questions and give open-ended responses.
Starting point is 02:42:20 And it seemed like it was thinking, I mean, it, you know, it was like you're being psychoanalyzed by some kind of a counselor and you're you're on the couch or something well how do you feel about that well tell me more about that you know that type of stuff and it could be very effective and and you know it was laughable because we knew there was just this program that was gaming it this is just a much more sophisticated version of that and it's being applied to a lot of different things i've got a question or a comment for you uh here on rock fan from michelle obama thank you uh he says eric what's that yeah exactly um that's why he's got an n at the end of it obama says uh eric india had a jetsons looking-frills car that looked to make cars cheap again.
Starting point is 02:43:06 When will demand overwhelm and force reasonable, practical cars back? What do you think? Well, you've got to get the impediment out of the way, which is the federal government. If the federal government weren't there, of course we'd have access to these things. Even previous to this bums rush toward electrification, most people have no idea that in other parts of the world, even in Mexico, you can get basic, simple little cars, brand new, that are made by all the major manufacturers. They just don't sell them here because they're not allowed to sell them here because the federal government won't permit them to be imported into the country because they don't meet the very latest.
Starting point is 02:43:42 There's something called the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards other things and then their emission standards and so they keep them out of this country even to the extent uh here's a good example in in new zealand and australia uh you can buy a brand new v8 powered toyota land cruiser brand new from toyota for about forty thousand dollars that vehicle is not available here you can get the diesel powered forerunners in those markets. These are fully modern cars. And this idea that they're somehow unsafe or that they are dirty and producing lots of pollution, it's absurd. It's rent seeking, it's capture, it's designed to increase the price of vehicles, to price most people out of the market. And
Starting point is 02:44:24 unfortunately, the automakers are in collusion with this. They can make more money by keeping the lower priced stuff out. There's a reason why you can't buy a small pickup in this country anymore. The closest thing you can come to is the Maverick, which I had a week ago and did a review of. But all the vehicles that you and I can remember from, what, 10, compact size trucks why can't you get those anymore they were immensely popular they were also very inexpensive they sold for 13 14 000 brand new anymore because why they want to upsell you they want to sell you a 35 000 mid-size truck and by the way the the those mid-sized trucks now and i'm talking about the current ford, the Chevy Colorado, the Toyota Tacoma.
Starting point is 02:45:07 If you look at them dimensionally, they are as big or even bigger in some cases than the half-ton full-size trucks of the 90s and early 2000s. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. It's amazing how big they've gotten and how high they've gotten, you know, especially when I'm driving around in my little car. I see these cars, and the top of the hood of the front of the car is sometimes higher than my height. You know, and it's like, well, why does everybody wants to drive a semi-trailer, I guess, anymore is what they.
Starting point is 02:45:36 I don't get it. You know, when I had the Maverick, it was such a nice and relieving thing to be able to go to Lowe's to get some. I got some, you know, block stones for a tree that we're going to plant. And I didn't have to get on a ladder to put them in the truck and have to get on the ladder to get them out of the truck. I just put them over the truck and I'm six feet, three inches tall. So I'm taller than probably 95% of the adult men in this country. And these current half-ton trucks make me feel like i'm 12 years old again because they're that big and that high the bed wall comes up to my chest it's crazy it serves no functional purpose at all it's all about this sort of codpiece strutting look at me i don't understand
Starting point is 02:46:18 the appeal of it at all that's exactly what happened to us we went out and got a we need to have a pickup truck and let's like get a cheap one at at an auction and um so they looked at it from a distance they didn't they got there late and my son and my wife did and they picked up this thing and the people were laughing they went to pick it up and said you can't drive that thing my wife couldn't even get into it i had a hard time getting into it you couldn't load anything in the back just like you're talking about it was so high it was it was a big truck and they had jacked it up and it was an old truck you know but they they had jacked this thing up really high we wound up reselling that you know and getting rid of it uh but uh yeah it is it is really crazy and
Starting point is 02:46:57 you know when you look at um what is happening in terms of talking about cheap cars years ago we talked about this and you talked about how in france they had a different uh very cheap very low power version that was only available to new drivers you know and and i think it was you know for entry level and of course you would never be allowed to have something like that and it's a big game by putting all this safety stuff on there it keeps the competition out doesn't it sure well once again get back to this ev thing there are a plethora of city evs available from various chinese manufacturers that are priced under ten thousand dollars that would be ideal for people who live in the city you know or even for people who are a little bit outside of the city and they don't need a vehicle that has a range greater than 100 miles and they don't need a
Starting point is 02:47:41 vehicle that can travel at 75 miles an hour on the freeway for a couple hundred miles at a time what they need is just a simple a to b conveyance lots of people would really like to have a vehicle like that and again if we're facing an existential crisis because the climate is changing why would you not want to encourage as many of those kinds of vehicles to get into circulation as possible and the answer is because there isn't an existential crisis it's it's just a boogeyman you know it's a mcguffin it's it's just it's another con designed to separate people from their money and their liberty yeah i i just saw the article about the the big chinese uh ev company and and they had it like you're talking about that one round ten thousand dollars it would only go 80 miles an hour that was his top speed it wasn't really super fast
Starting point is 02:48:24 and and as you point out if it is an threat, you would want to have those types of vehicles around. But then, of course, that's being done in a country that is allowed to add unbelievable amounts of coal-fired power plants. They don't even make an attempt to clean it up. There's no limits on that, just like there's no limits on power in India. And that's why all the manufacturing is going there. Nobody can compete with them. It's not just a fact of regulations, but you can't compete with them because they have such cheap energy. That's now become another component of the China price. Sure, absolutely.
Starting point is 02:48:55 I was going to say, we've got another question here, Andromeda1. David, what do you and Eric think of the potential of hydrogen cars? Wishing everybody a great Memorial Day weekend. What do you think about the hydrogen cars? Well, they suffer from some of the same problems that electric cars suffer from. They're very expensive. And, you know, you need a whole other infrastructure, I think, to get that to go. Toyota actually has one that's in production.
Starting point is 02:49:18 It's called the Mirai. And it's essentially a Toyota Camry. Same basic car, same basic shape and all of that. And I think its base price is something like $45,000, might even be $50,000. You pick up a Camry with a gas engine for $23,000. So it's roughly twice as expensive. And I think the unasked question is why? Why would you go through all these, jump through all these hoops to replace something that works?
Starting point is 02:49:43 I think we have to focus on the fact that they're trying to get rid of something that works. Why? Because of a fraudulent reason, this notion somehow that, uh, the zero point is at 0.04% of the earth's atmosphere is CO2. And somehow a fractional increase in that fraction is causing an existential
Starting point is 02:50:02 crisis. I just, who buys that? And only 3% of that 0.4 is man-made according to them you know and so even from their own position it doesn't make any sense and i think it is it is essential for us to debunk that foundational lie as long as we try to play around with that and you know the the approach that's been taken by toyota during the hydrogen car and a lot of these other things is to say, OK, we'll accept your premise that we've got to get rid of CO2.
Starting point is 02:50:29 So how do we do that? Well, here's a new technology that's going to have a lot of flaws in it. We don't have the infrastructure to support it. It's going to be incredibly expensive. But let's play this game and pretend that we've got to stop all CO2. We've got to stop it and oppose this notion that we've got to get rid of CO. We've got to stop it and oppose this notion that we've got to get rid of CO2 or they're going to destroy everything.
Starting point is 02:50:48 They're playing that game now with meat and with milk. As we were talking about earlier, they even did it about rice. I saw this because a lot of the poor countries in the world, they don't have the money and the infrastructure to eat meat or milk. And so they're eating rice. Well, now let's get rid of rice.
Starting point is 02:51:06 You have to understand that the fundamental thing about all this environmentalism is not about CO2. It's about depopulation. These people have been about depopulation from the very beginning. The first Earth Day, I was in high school. Paul Ehrlich was out there in front with all this stuff. He was writing about the population bomb. How do we kill more people?
Starting point is 02:51:24 How do we get rid of people and all this kind of stuff from the very beginning that's what it's about they don't want to get rid of co2 they want to get rid of people absolutely i think we had a very important lesson during the course of the past four years with regard to the pandemic and the only way we stopped that was by challenging the underlying narrative. The only thing that stopped the masking and the vaccine was the fact that these things don't work. The disease they're talking about is, for the most part, a trivial threat to most people. It's simply absurd. You don't accept their premise. If you accept their premise and agree with their argument, well, you've lost the argument. All you're going to do at that point is quibble over how you're going to deal
Starting point is 02:52:05 with this problem that doesn't really exist. Yes, yes. And, you know, it is, you have an article, I think, on your site about the guy that refused to shut down his gym, and of course they arrested him in New York. And he's absolutely defiant. He said, look, you have to understand nobody is coming to rescue you you're in this yourself raise the black flag you know this is the time to take a stand and not to back down and we have to do that even when it comes to this narrative
Starting point is 02:52:37 I know people you know oh you're talking about the the elites want to kill everybody that's right and we can make that. That is the truth. And if it's the truth, we can make that case and we can make it very effectively. And we need to make that case effectively to people and to point out the lies that they have there. You know, it's all based on on on a bluff, isn't it? You know, just like it was with the pandemic. Same thing with the climate stuff.
Starting point is 02:53:02 Oh, I'm not going to show you the data. I'm the scientist. You have to trust me and do what I say it's always about that bluff it's also based on maliciousness and i think that's something that's difficult for most people to get their heads around because most people assume that other people are well intended even if they're wrong about something maybe they have incorrect information maybe their assumptions are wrong but at the end of the day they're trying to do the right thing well that's not the case with these people that's right uh these people are malicious and you have got to say no firmly to them period that's right
Starting point is 02:53:31 the normal people can't understand how evil these people are and that's what why you know serial killers are successful people like ted bundy he's such a nice man he's very intelligent he's very attractive and then of course he rapes and murders women one after the other right because he uses that and people project on to others that's what the big deal is with trump everybody projects what they want him to be i i remember um harry belafonte said that uh about obama you know he was on the left and towards the end of the obama uh regimes regimes he said who is this guy uh we thought he was going to do this this and this and he didn't do any of that he said we projected what we wanted him to be we projected that the left did onto obama the right is doing exactly the same thing with trump sure you know most
Starting point is 02:54:20 people want to assume the best of other people, and most people have a really tough time grappling with evil and that it does exist and that it does come in human form sometimes. That's right. Yeah, you know, one of the things I've talked to people that I think is really an eye-opener, if you stop and think about it, I said, you know, what about ivermectin? We look at all these different things that were killing people, hospital protocols, and Trump was paying for it and giving hospitals bonuses and everything. He said, what about ivermectin? Oh, well, you know, Trump tried to tell us about ivermectin, and look at how they shut him down. It's like, come on, he's president, number one. Number two, look at what he did for ventilators. He took over the car companies and told Ford and GM, you're going to make these ventilators now? The ventilators are killing people. You know, like 90% of the people who got them died.
Starting point is 02:55:05 And then same thing with remdesivir. I said he could have done that with ivermectin. At the very least, he could have said you're not going to take away people's medical licenses or fire them as a pharmacist because they give people ivermectin. The second thing he could have done is he could have mass produced it. There was no, nobody owned it. So he could have mass produced that just like he mass produced ventilators or these other things things you know the vaccines but he chose not to do any of that what does that tell you you know people need to think about that it truly is well some of the devolutionists say well trump never forced anybody to take the vaccine oh i heard that which is absolutely except of course
Starting point is 02:55:38 everybody in the military yeah and effectively everybody else had a bayonet shoved at their back with the choice being uh give up your livelihood and potentially the ability to feed your family uh that's the choice that you've got to make and there's something else too to get back to the this sort of blind spot that a lot of christians putatively have with regard to trump it's my understanding that these these vaccines uh in the course of their manufacture make use of aborted fetal tissue. That's right. And somehow it's okay for good godly man Trump to push this concoction that involves the tissue of aborted fetuses onto people. It's amazing.
Starting point is 02:56:17 He's never seen the inside of a Bible. This guy's not a Christian. It's probably a box. Inside of that box is probably that's his big mac that's where he keeps his big mac yeah that's right he's got his golden slippers and his his trump bible and all the rest of this stuff i've got a clip that i play that somebody did the uh the ten commandments you remember a couple of years ago at cpac they had that golden trump idol that was in sneakers yes they they put a you know over superimpose that with
Starting point is 02:56:45 the tracking uh so they're carrying around that instead of the the golden calf and so it's you know in my area there's something called the trump store are you familiar with it oh yeah we got a couple of them here we got two of them here i i should go in and introduce myself sometime if i want to get beat up it's it's surreal i i we were at at one of them a couple of weeks ago and they had a selection of of images you know sort of like catholic or a russian orthodox iconography literally with jesus behind him or like the holy nimbus behind him and stuff and it's serious it's not a gag you know they actually take this stuff seriously oh Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 02:57:28 Oh, that's a big part of this Reawaken America tour with Mike Flynn and all these other people. I mean, they really do milk that. And the thing is, you know, these people who are going to it, they really are political neophytes. If they are Christians at all, they're new to that. You know, and so they don't really understand either politics or religion but they've kind of mixed these two things together as part of this big movement it truly is amazing to watch all this stuff it as it rolls out but it is a it's a very dangerous time that we're in and i think that uh we have to do what this guy at the gym did we have to say well you know they destroy my life they destroy my life but it's going to be destroyed if i have to live it on my knees and i refuse to comply with any of this stuff
Starting point is 02:58:07 rays of a black flag do not uh cooperate with any of this stuff he said i knew i would eventually find a judge who would support the constitution and so now he's at all 80 charges removed but you know he's still got to get his money back on it but we have to have that kind of attitude we got to have that kind of attitude when it comes to the narratives about the bird flu when it comes to the uh the issues of um uh you know what what they're trying to push on us with the co2 as well and you know eric i think i've talked about this many times how this is really the second shooter drop from 9-11 because they had the the first germ game two months before 9-11. Then one week after 9-11, they had the anthrax attack. And then two months later, they put out all this model legislation.
Starting point is 02:58:50 As everybody's looking at this and there's, how do we get the Congress to do anything to stop this WHO pandemic treaty and the fact that they've got control of us? I think we need to get involved at the local level. I think we need to somehow, on a state-by-state basis, they put out this model legislation to them in 2001. We've got to find out which of those laws were put in in each of our respective states and start trying to find some legislators who will pull this thing apart piece by piece.
Starting point is 02:59:17 I think that's about the best thing that we could do at this point, because they're going to try to impose this from the top down. We have to take the legs off of it where the rubber meets the road and that's at the local and state level i think i couldn't agree more we have to take back our communities we have to take a page on the left you know the left uh what's 50 60 years at least uh working from the ground up working from the school boards up all the way up to the level of the federal government and they were hugely successful at it we can do the same and i think we can be even more successful you know the advantage that we have at the local level is that these are our neighbors these are people that we know and that we can actually have some
Starting point is 02:59:52 direct interaction with whereas its hope was to try to do anything with a senator two senators in a state how many millions of people do these people allegedly represent good luck no unless you're boeing or raytheon you're not going to get an audience, much less anything done, talking to your senator or calling an 800 number. But you might have some success talking to your neighbor down the road who's a member of the school board, or better yet, why don't you run for the school board yourself? Yes, I agree. A couple of quick things.
Starting point is 03:00:17 Thank you on RumbleYJ72. It's a beautiful dog. You showed dogs before you came on. And on Rockfin, Michelle Obaman again. Eric, why don't they call buying a truck a mortgage? One costs twice what my dad paid for his house. They ought to. You know, the difference is that a vehicle is a depreciating consumer appliance.
Starting point is 03:00:38 It's not an asset. You know, at least when you take out a mortgage on a house,'s sort of a store of value at least in normal times and at the end of the day when you finally do pay off the mortgage well you've actually got something that's still worth something but when you finance a vehicle for typically six to seven years now at the end of that loan term you've got something that's worth a fraction of what it what its value was when you drove it off the dealer's lot it might still be worth 30% what you paid for it that's what i call a bad deal yeah investment not not a good one and that's especially true of these super expensive electric vehicles that's the thing we're talking about mortgage what is
Starting point is 03:01:13 a mortgage you know the root of that is mort which in latin is death right so what you're doing you're killing you're killing off this debt gradually assuming that there's going to be something of value that's still there after you've killed off the debt. The problem is with a car, you have this declining asset underneath it, which is maybe dying faster than the mortgage is being killed off. Yeah, and the situation now, they've really painted themselves in a corner because they've only been able to do this increase in the cost of the typical car by extending out the loan payments to six, seven years and even longer in some cases with very low interest. But, you know, as interest rates have gone up, now you're looking at typical car payments of six, seven hundred dollars. And for some of the higher end models, nine hundred, a thousand dollars. It's literally a mortgage. People are paying as much on a car payment as people used to pay on their house.
Starting point is 03:02:04 And it's just not sustainable. Oh, you're absolutely right. Trump was right about one thing. It's going to be a bloodbath in the automobile industry for sure. Thank you so much for joining us, Eric Peters, ericpetersautos.com. Always great to see what you're doing. Thank you for what you're doing for freedom. I really do appreciate it. Likewise, Dave.
