The David Knight Show - Fri Episode #1992: Give Us Bibi: Christian Zionists Forsake Christ for an Earthly Kingdom as AI and Techno-Babel Rise
Episode Date: April 18, 20252:30 FSU Shooting HorrorBypassing Florida’s strict campus gun laws, this Sheriff’s Youth Program member’s rampage exposes the chilling vulnerability of defenseless students. 6:49 Israel's Star...vation Siege Kills Thousands of Children While Media Ignores Atrocities In a horrifying act of deliberate cruelty, Israel's six-week food blockade has plunged Gaza into a man-made famine, starving thousands of children to death and leaving millions malnourished as Israel adamantly states “no humanitarian aid” will be allowed. Breaking a ceasefire with renewed bombings, Israel has killed families, bombed schools, and even targeted Gaza's only Christian hospital on Palm Sunday. With no food, fuel, or medicine allowed in, humanitarian workers watch helplessly as civilians die under a policy of "voluntary relocation"—a chilling euphemism for ethnic cleansing. 13:10 Christian Zionists Betray Christ: Cheering Gaza’s Genocide Australian writer Caitlin Johnston exposes the shocking betrayal of 30 million Christian Zionists in America, who blindly support Israel’s brutal Gaza atrocities, believing it’s God’s will. Ignoring Jesus’s teachings that “my kingdom is not of this world,” these cult-like evangelicals twist Old Testament prophecies to justify starvation and slaughter, bombing child-filled “concentration camp.” Even pagans recoil at this spiritual bankruptcy! 19:39 Are Christian Zionists Missing Christ as the Pharisees Did?“Christian” leaders like Ken Copeland and John Hagee (who says Jesus didn’t come as Messiah and never said he was the Messiah) have exchanged the Kingdom of God for a worldly Zionism. Like the Pharisees of Jesus’ time they want political power and victory and they’re whitewashed sepulchres 35:43 LIVE comments from audience 43:33 Mel Gibson: We Need the Truth About 9/11Says we need people of impeccable character to get to the bottom of it. You mean people like Rudy Giuliani, Howard Lutnick, Gina Haspel? 53:45 US Boasts God-Like Power: Bending Time and Space in a Techno-Babel Takeover! White House tech czar Michael Kratzios stuns the world, claiming the US wields sci-fi tech to manipulate time and space! He boasts of annihilating distance and supercharging productivity, but is this hyperbole or a chilling reality? With technocrats worshipping innovation as their god, this hubris echoes the Tower of Babel’s arrogance 1:02:43 AI Twins: Digital Clones as Personal Assistants or Something Family Can Interact with When Your Gone A new wave of AI startups is crafting digital twins—eerie replicas that mimic your voice, thoughts, and actions, taking your meetings, answering emails, and even “comforting” loved ones after your death! Are they trying to replicate Michael Keaton’s Multiplicity or Marlon Brando’s computer tutor for his son in Superman? 1:31:31 Robot Hype Goes into HyperSpace: Move Fast and Defraud People OpenAI former employees go public with claims about Sam Altman’s character A Forbes investigation alleges Figure AI’s hyped-up robots, promised to revolutionize BMW factories, are exposed as a fraudulent flop, inflating a $40 billion bubble Nvidia, caught in a trade war, grovels to both the U.S. and China, chasing billions while handing Huawei the AI chip market. 1:48:48 “Singing in the Reign”: Trump’s as Unpredictable as the Weather Trump says we have to weather the storm unleashed by his erratic tariff flip-flops, yet his own campaign merch is made in China. With prices soaring, orders plummeting, and jobs vanishing, Trump’s whimsical trade wars—delayed one day, denied the next—are strangling global commerce. From wine importers to chipmakers, companies reel as his emergency-powers dictatorship mimics 2020’s martial law madness. 2:04:30 Global Chaos Ignites Gold Surge as Trump’s Unpredictable Tariffs Create Economic Firestorm Gerald Celente, the trend forecasting legend TrendsJournal.com, exposes a media conspiracy silencing the gold’s meteoric rise as it rocketed from $2,041 to $3,327 an ounce. Wall Street Journal and New York Times are still ignoring spikes of over $100 a day! Celente warns of a collapsing dollar, nuclear war risks, and Trump’s chaotic tariffs shaking markets.

Okay, Magnum Bon Bon podcast ad take one.
Kira, on my signal, bite into new Magnum Bon Bon.
Just imagine, it's Friday evening, you're on the way home,
when suddenly you get a craving for bite-sized indulgent vanilla ice cream

Okay, Magnum Bon Bon podcast ad take one.
Kira, on my signal, bite into new Magnum Bon Bon.
Just imagine, it's Friday evening, you're relaxing on the couch, when suddenly you get
a craving for bite-sized indulgent vanilla ice cream, swirled with salted caramel sauce, encased in golden caramel, white chocolate and…
Kira!
I said wait for my signal!
I'm so sorry, I just couldn't.
Nothing cracks like Magnum.
Magnum.
True to pleasure. In a world of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
It's The David Knight Show.
As the clock strikes 13, it's the 18th of April, year of our Lord 2025, Good Friday.
Now today we're going to talk about how we've lost our vision in this country, our vision
for family and even our vision for Christ.
We have Elon Musk in some emails that have surfaced from one of his harem, I guess we
could say, talking about how he wants to create an army of people who are super intelligent,
as he imagines he is.
Perhaps he is.
Who knows?
But it is that kind of pride that we see in the technocracy, but also a concern for posterity.
And I guess the question is what has happened in our society
outside of these technocrats?
Why isn't the Christian community leading this?
And why isn't the Christian community pushing back
against the mass murder of innocent children
that is happening in Gaza?
So we're going to take a look at all of these things today,
and we have some major news about artificial intelligence as well.
Major fraudulent news.
We'll be right back.
Music Well, when we began with the shooting at F.S.
Shue, Florida State University, the individual appears to be, according to the latest news
that I saw, they believe in terms of motive that he was looking for a specific person
that he wanted to get, but he wound up killing two people, another six in
hospital. I'm not sure if that number includes him because he was also shot.
Twenty years old, Phoenix Ickner, and he is named as the mass shooter. His mother
is a sheriff's deputy and it was her gun, not her service weapon, but one that had
been her service weapon she was allowed to purchase.
The social media post that he wrote before this happened said, you are my war club, my
weapons for battle.
With you I shatter nations, with you I destroy kingdoms.
Speaking for God, I guess, you know, it's kind of how people take things out of context.
It's pretty amazing.
You know, you just pick up the Bible and take a verse and you point at it and say, that's
what God wants me to do right there, right?
So the guy gets the verse, it says, Judas went out and hung himself.
Go down and do likewise or whatever, right?
So when you take this kind of stuff out of context, I don't know what the guy's issue
is.
This is from the book of Jeremiah talking about judgment day.
But it's God who judges.
That's the thing that he's missing here.
And that's what we celebrate on Good Friday, the fact that God took out his judgment on
his own son on our behalf.
Anyway, he said he was described as a political science major.
So he had done other posts showing that he supported Trump.
He said, I think it's a little bit too late.
Trump is already going to be inaugurated on January the 20th.
There's not really much you can do unless you outright revolt.
I don't think anyone wants that.
So, at that point in time, he didn't want violence, evidently.
Leon County Sheriff McNeil said in a press conference Thursday,
the gunman was a member of the department's youth setup,
and was involved in training programs.
Again, two people killed, six hospitalized.
He is also in custody in the hospital, so I don't know if he's the seventh one, but
I think they were talking about the people that he shot and killed. Students, meanwhile,
shared a lot of photos as they were hiding, they were taking pictures with their cell
phone, which is what everybody does now. Whenever something happens, people don't do anything.
They just watch and record.
A nation of voyeurs.
But of course, nobody is allowed to do anything on the Florida campuses because according
to Florida law, state law, you cannot have a gun on campus even if you are licensed to
carry.
So how did this guy get a gun on campus?
I just don't understand.
I mean, it's against the law, right?
How did that happen?
I mean, they've got laws to stop that.
Somehow he got past the law.
We also have laws against murder.
But really what that law is about, that's a law against self-defense.
There weren't any professors, there weren't any
students who had gone through license carry and been vetted even by the government. No,
that's not even good enough. You're not allowed to protect yourself. So that's a school that's got
40 or 45,000 students. It's huge. And that means that you've got forty-four thousand nine
hundred ninety-nine students without a gun and one with. And he can do whatever he wants.
And what he wanted to do that day was to kill two people and he in the process got six other
people wounded I think. So we look at this, and this is everywhere.
And it is a tragedy.
But of course, they have an agenda.
They want to take away more places where you can carry a gun and protect yourself.
But what they're not talking about is the mass murder that is happening to children
in Gaza.
Because you know, two deaths are a tragedy, but millions of deaths are a statistic," said
Stalin.
Thousands of Gaza children are malnourished under Israel's food blockade.
They're starving them to death, those that they didn't kill with bombs.
Israel's blockade has barred entry of all food and other goods for more than six weeks.
Thousands of children have become malnourished and most people are barely eating one meal
a day as the stocks are dwindling, says the UN.
No food, no fuel, no medicine or any other supplies have entered Gaza since Israel imposed
its blockade on March 2nd.
It renewed its bombardment on March 18th, breaking a ceasefire."
There we go.
So they've set up a siege, they're starving people to death, there was a ceasefire, they
broke the ceasefire.
What's going on with this here?
Why is it that our media is not talking about it? Why is it that anybody
who criticizes this, they want to call you a terrorist and deport you?
So hundreds have been killed, more than 400,000 Palestinians have been forced to flee their
shelters in the latest of multiple displacements. A strike in a southern city killed a family
of ten, including five children,
four women and a man. Strikes in northern Gaza killed two other couples with nine children,
according to the Indonesian hospital that is speaking there. A later strike hit a school
sheltering displaced people, killing three people and a child. On Palm Sunday, Israel
bombed the only Christian hospital in the area.
So think about that.
In March, more than 3,600 children were newly admitted for treatment for acute malnutrition,
up from 2,000 the month before.
Oh, hey, it seems to be working.
Great.
We'll have the land any time now, because that's all that matters.
We'll have the land.
I don't care who I've got to kill.
And we've got Christian pastors calling them Amalekites, saying, well, kill any or all
of them.
They're not Amalekites.
And there is no Christian genocide that is supported by Christ.
You shouldn't support these pastors.
Humanitarians have been forced to watch people suffer and die while carrying the impossible
burden of providing relief with depleted supplies, all while facing the same life-threatening
conditions themselves," said an emergency coordinator for Doctors Without Borders.
Continuing with the statement, she said, �This is not a humanitarian failure.
It is a political choice, a deliberate assault on people�s ability to survive, carried
out with impunity.� As a matter of fact, such impunity that the Israeli Defense Minister
says no humanitarian
aid will enter Gaza, ever.
So he's saying, indefinite.
Israel Katz is his name.
He said plans for ethnic cleansing, which he calls voluntary relocation, are advancing.
This is from anti-war.
Voluntary relocation. We bomb you, we starve you, or you know this is to voluntarily
get you to voluntarily relocate. I love that, don't you? You know it's like when they were
killing people with a vaccine, Biden said with his mandates, he said well you know we're not
forcing anybody to get the vaccine. You can lose your job, your position, all the rest of it,
you know where you to take the vaccine?
Well you know, if you don't go somewhere, get out of this area, we will kill you all.
So maybe you ought to voluntarily relocate.
Israel Katz said Israel's policy is clear.
No humanitarian aid will be allowed into Gaza and preventing humanitarian aid to Gaza is
one of the central
pressure tools that they want to use to stop Hamas.
Well, apparently they're not doing too well.
They only got 25% of the tunnels, according to Israel, after a couple of years of bombing
and all the rest of this stuff.
Maybe they should ask Netanyahu to stop paying Hamas, to stop aiding them.
He was the one who put them in.
He was the one who aided them.
This is why there's such a fight within Israel that the American press does not want to cover,
because they call it cuttergate.
He was aiding Hamas.
He deliberately put Hamas in.
He wanted to have the most radical government in there that he wanted.
People in Gaza don't want them.
Netanyahu did.
And he gave them money and their leaders money.
And at the very beginning of this I said, well, you've got the leaders of Hamas living
the high life and luxury high rises in Qatar, why don't you go take them out?
Instead, they would rather kill the civilians who are there, because they don't care about
the terrorism, they don't care about murder, they simply want the land.
That's the cold calculation here.
No one, he said, is going to allow any humanitarian aid into Gaza, and no preparations are being
made to allow any kind of aid of this kind," said Katz.
He also said IDF troops would not leave the territory that they've captured since Israel
restarted the genocidal war on March 18th, says Andy War.
He said, to date, hundreds of thousands of residents have been evacuated.
Dozens of percent of the territory have been incorporated into the security zones.
So it's a success.
They don't care how many people they kill.
Get some more land.
So the plan for voluntary relocation of Gaza residents is being advanced, he said.
How cynical.
Katz said that if Hamas continues to refuse to release the hostages under Israel's terms,
which now includes a demand for the group to disarm, then operations in Gaza will expand
and will move to the next stage.
Well, you know, Caitlin Johnston, an Australian writer, and this is an article of hers that
was picked up on Freethought Project, and this is what I've been saying all along.
She says, �It is crazy and evil to support Israel's atrocities because you think God
wants you to.� What religion is that? You see, even the unbelievers and the pagans look
at this and shake their heads like, �What's the matter with you people?� And Jesus said,
�My kingdom is not of this world.� He was brought in on Palm Sunday, he was-

Just imagine, it's Friday evening, you're on the way home,
when suddenly you get a craving for bite-sized indulgent vanilla ice cream

Hailed as the conquering messiah,
because they wanted somebody who was going to give them the land.
They wanted somebody who was going to kick out the Romans.
They wanted somebody who was going to create a worldly empire, and wanted somebody who was going to kick out the Romans. They wanted somebody who was going to create a
worldly empire. And he kept telling them, ìMy kingdom is not of this world.î And yet
we have Christians who donít care what Jesus said. Well, hereís my understanding of some
Old Testament kingdom prophecies. And I donít really care what Jesus said. He doesnít know
what heís doing. And the apostles, they donít know what they're doing. They very clearly stated didactically, and these Old Testament prophecies were there
describing things in terms that people would understand.
Much of what is in the Old Testament isn't just figurative.
Yes, it literally happened, but the deliverance of Israel with Passover and all the rest of
that stuff was clearly, that was both factual, which people like Benjamin and Netanyahu do not believe.
But all of that literally happened, but it was a picture of Christ's work.
And it was not to give them an earthly kingdom.
And it's not to give them an earthly kingdom today.
If God wants to do that, He can do that. But you don't have a warrant
to cheer starvation and murder of civilians, men, women, and children. How unchrist-like can you get?
And we have even the pagans seeing this. And I've said this before. When you look at Paul's letter
to the Corinthians, he says, you're engaged in sexual activity,
and you're condoning, not all of them, but somebody within their midst, he said, you
are condoning what this man is doing, and even the pagans are astounded at it.
Not even the pagans do that.
We are condoning what the political government there is doing in Israel.
And not even the pagans, would
condone that.
She said, the U.S. is so spiritually bankrupt that literally tens of millions of Americans
who support Israel's genocidal atrocities in Gaza, because they think that God wants
them to.
She said, how gross is that? There is a massive, politically engaged demographic in the United States whose idea of an actualized
spirituality is demanding that their government keep giving weapons to an apartheid state
which is currently raining military explosives onto a giant concentration camp full of children.
Well, again, I've used the examples of Abraham,
who was given a promise from God.
He didn't like the way that God was going to do it
or God's timing, and so he decided
he would take it into his own hands.
And the result was something that we still live with today.
And so,
even the people who don't understand what is going on,
look at this. Folks, it is our approach to Christ, and it is a cultic religion that replaces Christ
with a political entity.
It replaces what he came to do,
which is to save his people, to create a kingdom that
you can't see.
You're not going to say it's there or it's there.
It's within you.
And they don't care about that.
I'm not primarily talking about Jews here, she says.
There are an estimated 30 million Christian Zionists in the United States, which is about
twice the total population of Jews in the entire world, Zionist and non-Zionist.
So what she's saying here is the biggest problem is the Christians who are Zionists.
It is a religious cult that has denied Christ, denied his mission, replaced him with their worldly ambitions
because they think they've got a prophecy here and they're going to make it happen.
Well, you don't have to make God's prophecies happen. He makes them happen himself.
She said, that's just members of Christian churches that are explicitly Zionist as a
whole. There are also other Americans who support Israel for religious reasons as individuals. They believe its existence will help fulfill a
biblical prophecy and will bring about a second coming of Jesus who will take them all to
heaven and send all the unbelievers, including the Jews, to hell. Well, you know, that's
fairly accurate for an unbeliever. There's a lot more involved there, but nevertheless, this is why such a reproach to Christ.
Together, Christians and Jewish Zionists in the U.S. comprise an extremely powerful voting
bloc who aggressively push Washington to support Israel and its various mass atrocities throughout
the years, continuing with what we're seeing in Gaza today, because their religion tells them it's what God wants.
No, that is not our religion.
And we as Christians need to stand up and oppose this, just the same as if we would
oppose the Ku Klux Klan, carrying crosses and burning them on people's yards.
That is not Christian.
You can't have that.
And these Zionist Christians need to make a choice.
Are they Zionists or Christians?
Choose who you will serve.
Will you serve Israel or Christ?
Not even the most notorious cult leader, she said, modern times have convinced people that
it's good and fine to murder tens of thousands of children.
Jim Jones himself, she said.
But she said, get some weird looking evangelical thumping a Bible in front of a podium and
suddenly people are praying that God guide American missiles onto every hospital in Gaza.
If your religion tells you to help murder thousands of children in a genocidal onslaught,
you need to change your religious beliefs.
And you don't have Christianity.
You're not a follower of the way.
You're not a follower of Christ, if that's what you're going to do.
You know, when we look at this, we've had, for Easter, right, their Easter dinner, which
is what they call it, Ken Copeland is going to be at Trump's Easter dinner.
Trump really loves this guy.
If you look at it, and for good reason, you go back to the 2020 election.
And what was Ken Copeland telling everybody?
He was demonically laughing in front of the congregation
and could not stop saying, they're telling us that Biden is president.
The media said, what?
The media said Joe Biden's president.
Yeah. And it goes on and on. I can't take too much of this guy.
That church is all about politics.
It's all it's about.
Their God is politics.
Their God is land.
Their God is Trump.
And their pastor is demonic.
I'll spare you the clips.
You can find them all over social media.
I mean, if you want to see evidence of demonic possession, take a look at Ken Copeland.
He's 88 years old.
He predicted in December the date of his own death.
I wonder if it's going to be as accurate as his political predictions. And he is saying that, he says, �I�ve made
a covenant and entered a covenant with God, and on December the 6th, 2056, I�ll see
y�all later, I�m out of here. I�ll be 120 years old then.� So, he�s got a deal
with God. Maybe he should check the individual that he signed that agreement with.
Did you make a deal with God or the devil?
I don't know what you made an agreement with, but he's also a big Zionist as well.
As a matter of fact, he was confronted, you might remember this, Inside Edition, there
was a reporter who confronted him about his luxury plane that he had spent millions and millions of
dollars on.
All of these TV pastors just fleecing the sheep.
Just amazing.
And this reporter engaged him because her father is a pastor and she could smell a wolf
among the sheep and it doesn't take much to
discern that about this guy, about Copeland. And so she confronts him about buying a big expensive
private jet, a really big one like Trump's. And I prayed about it and I thought,
And I prayed about it and I thought I'm great about missing that dedication in Jerusalem
Without the airplane that we have that I bought from Tyler Perry and I didn't pay any warning Tyler's one of the greatest guy
He made it he made that airplane so cheap for me. I couldn't help but buy it
Very concerned about that comment chance here inside edition.
I love your eyes.
And here's what happened.
We flew in 21 days, 70 hours, 40,000 miles, touched five continents and preached face to face personally with
125,000 people.
Do you ever use your private jets to go visit your vacation homes, for example?
Yes, I do. Okay. Again, getting back to the comment, you said that you don't like to fly
commercial because you don't want to get into a tube with a bunch of demons. Do you really believe
that human beings are demons? No, I do not. And don't you ever say I did. We wrestle not
say I did. We wrestle not with flesh and blood but principalities and powers. Can you explain?
I think he lost the wrestling match. I think he is firmly in the grip of those principalities
and powers, don't you? And he said there will never be a two state solution because a two
state solution is no solution at all because you can't argue with the king of the universe. Don't even try. Don't you even try. Well, when you look at these guys, I mentioned John
Hagee and I played that clip and had people send me articles about that saying, well,
you know, he's walked that back. The fact that he said that Jesus was not the Messiah.
And he never said that he was the Messiah.
And I said, well, that's a flat-out lie.
And as a matter of fact, this is an interesting article from carm.org.
And the guy pointed out the reach of Hegge truly is amazing.
When you give yourself over to the devil, he's got all these
things. He can show you the kingdoms of the world, right? Those are all his to give.
He can give you 160 TV stations. He can give you 50 radio stations. He can help you to publish
10 books. He can get you a crowd of 14,000 people once a week. And so this guy, Matt Slick, who wrote this, he said, well, his beliefs page is not very
precise but it seems to be within orthodoxy.
The problem, however, is with his new book, In Defense of Israel, where Hagee apparently
states that Jesus was not the Messiah.
And he said, you know, you can find it on YouTube.
That's a clip that I played for you.
Jesus, he said, did not come to earth to be the Messiah.
And since Jesus refused by word and deed to claim to be the Messiah, how can the Jews
be blamed for rejecting what was never offered?
He said, obviously this is a big problem though, right?
And so the question is, is this guy ignorant, heretical, or is he doing this to sell books and sell controversy?
I mean, I've seen Alex do this kind of stuff.
Something he clearly knows is false.
And he throws it out there, and then he tries to spin it and walk it back.
Well, I didn't really say that, you know, but it was the controversial thing that he
throws out there.
So the guy says, well, instead of making my judgment on a one-minute soundbite, well,
I think we can make our judgment on that one-minute sound bite.
It was pretty clear, pretty clear.
And if we understand what Zionism is about, it's super clear what he's talking about.
He says, didn't want to make my judgment on a one-minute sound bite.
He said, so I got the book and I went through it and I didn't read the whole thing.
Instead I went to the section, chapter 10, which he did a expanded chapter 10 because of the controversy and sold it again. Where he deals with Jesus
as a Messiah in short, Hagee takes several pages to characterize the Jewish idea of the
Messiah as being a political deliverer who was supposed to free Israel from Roman oppression.
Sound familiar? You know, we talked about
this week and the Christian celebration of what happened, the remembrance of what happened.
You know, he was welcomed on Palm Sunday as king and welcomed as Messiah. But they were
looking for a political leader.
And once he was taken into custody, once he was beaten severely, beaten and bloodied and
pulled before the people, they saw, well, this isn't going to be the guy who's going
to give us a political deliverance.
And Pilate says, who do you want, Barabbas or this man?
And it comes out and says, �Behold the man.� Right? And they saw how they saw
this beaten, wounded, physically abused and crushed individual. Oh, we don�t want him.
We�d rather have a murderer. Releases Barabbas. And that�s the�it shows the true heart
of what they wanted.
Again, it's what the Zionists want today, whether they're Christians or Jews.
That's what they want.
They want political deliverance.
But the Bible is very clear, and actually so is Hagee.
Throughout his book he called Moses the Messiah of Israel, and he capitalizes that word.
He's not just talking about it in the sense Messiah means anointed.
And it's the English version of a Hebrew word that means anointed.
Christ means the same thing.
It's an English version of a Greek word that means the same thing. But he calls Moses the Messiah with a capital M, not just a generally anointed leader.
And then he says that Jesus refused to be their Messiah, choosing instead to be the
Savior of the world.
Well, that was the role of the Messiah.
And they misunderstood the Old Testament kingdom prophecies, just like the people of today.
And so he is defining Messiah simply as a political deliverer, which is what you would
expect a Zionist to do, because that's all they care about.
And he said, well, he's correct in that aspect that Jesus didn't come to be a political
messiah, but Hegge has failed to define his terms adequately, and he's causing uproar.
See, you don't get to redefine the terms that are there.
The Bible defines what these terms are.
And he's trying to redefine it.
So he says, so why is he doing this?
He says the same thing I said.
You know, is he doing this because he doesn't know, or is he doing this? He says the same thing I said.
You know, is he doing this because he doesn't know,
or is he doing this because he wants to invite controversy?
But he says, Jesus refused by word and deed
to claim to be the Messiah.
And that is clearly a false statement.
The English word Messiah is used twice in the New Testament,
in John and both times.
So in John 1, very beginning, people said as they saw Jesus, they went around and talked
to other people and said, �We found the Messiah.� And that says in parentheses,
which translated means Christ.
And then when he�s talking to the woman at the well, the woman said to
him, I know that Messiah is coming, he who is called Christ. And when that one comes,
he will declare all things to us. And Jesus said to her, I who speak to you am he. He
frequently though called himself son of man, but that was also a claim to be the Messiah.
Son of man was a prophetic term out of the Old Testament.
It wasn't just talking about, it wasn't talking about his human nature.
When he said to the Pharisees that were interrogating him on that week before they crucified him,
when he said, called himself the son of man, they were outraged because they understood. That was referring
to the Messiah.
But throughout the New Testament, it's very clear. So when Simon Peter, he says, who do
you say I am? Simon Peter says, you are Christ, the son of the living God. And Mark, the high
priest was questioning him. He said, are you Christ, the son of the blessed God. And Mark, the high priest, was questioning him. He said,
Are you Christ, the Son of the Blessed One? He says, I am. And you shall see the Son of Man,
there we go again, sitting at the right hand of power and coming with the clouds of heaven.
And in John 17, as Jesus is praying for those as followers, as then and now. He said this is eternal life
that they may know you the only true God and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.
Folks that's not his last name. That is his title. Why would Hagee fail to mention these verses? Again, why would he?
For political purposes. To make money.
He said Hagee has such a huge
agenda regarding his support for Israel that he's apparently allowed himself to
do shoddy, incomplete research
regarding the topic of the Messiah so as to support a particular view of
Israel. That's exactly right. And these people,
I thought about this this week, as I look at the damage that's been done to the
cause of Christ,
people like Paul White don't tell the Jews the gospel is
not important for them, you know, that type of thing. Well, and obviously
you don't think the Gospel is as important as your physical
kingdom that you want.
Isn't it amazing how the Zionists have basically become the Pharisees of Jesus' day?
They really have.
They are not in any way, shape or form Christian.
And what bothers me is that we see people like Caitlin Johnson, we see
people like Gerald Salinti who think that that is what Christianity is. And we have
to oppose that. So he finishes up by saying, he says, I think his ultra-support of Israel
has clouded his judgment. No, it has become his god. It really has.
We have as a matter of fact, like I said, you know, she said there is more Christian
Zionists than there are Jews in the world. Zionists and non-Zionists. And we have a lot
of non-Zionist Jews that are speaking out. They have taken out full page ads in the New
York Times. They are the only ones evidently they're allowed to, right? Anybody else does it, you're labeled anti-Semitic by the Zionists.
Ten leading U.S. Jewish groups denounced the Trump administration's campus crackdown.
And so these are representatives from reform, from conservative, from reconstructionist movements.
You know, the ultra-Orthodox Jews don't even support the existence of Israel.
They said, well, yeah, God has promised the land to us, but He's going to give it to
us miraculously.
And if you go out there and try to do it yourself, we don't support that.
Ten U.S. Jewish groups, including representatives from these different reform, constructive,
Reconstructionist movements, denounced the Trump administration's crackdown on non-citizen activists in universities.
Yeah, we have something called the First Amendment. Legally, he's not allowed to do that.
But, you know, all these people are saying, not in our name, not in our name. And I gotta say,
of these people like Hagee, of Paul White, of these people who are the spiritual advisors to Donald Trump,
taking him straight to hell.
Not in my name, and not in the name of Christ will I let you say this kind of stuff without
opposing you.
We're going to take a quick break and we'll come back and I've got some comments here.
We'll go over your comments. The End The You are listening to The David Knight Show.
All right, welcome back.
And I've got a lot of comments here.
Kick on kick, a Syrian girl said these, quote, Christian, unquote, pastors who support Israel's
atrocities
should read their Bibles.
Israel has always had its share of evil rulers, and God has punished the people severely for
following them.
Yeah, I agree.
Rumble, KWD 68, I've watched and read David Stockman's thoughts on terrorists, etc.
I'd love to see you have him back on.
Yeah, I'd like to get him back on.
We should get him back.
He's solid. And he
was somebody who took all the slings and arrows back there at the time of Reagan about what
he believed. You've got to respect that, you know, somebody, whether they're right or wrong,
you've got to respect somebody standing on their principles that they believe in explaining
them to people.
On Rumble, Sprumford, thank you very much for the tip. I appreciate that.
So my fiance was a rabid Christian Zionist
when we first met.
I gently introduced the truth about Israel to her.
Thankfully, she's no longer a Zionist.
Well, good.
And that's the thing, is that it's really a blessing
to redirect your focus away from the world and from politics to the
Lord Jesus Christ.
And that's the bad thing about this, that this heresy is exploding.
And it explodes because, yes, people, our tendency is to be focused on the world in
the wrong way.
You know, it takes people out of the fight, the spiritual fight.
It takes us out of the fight opposing evil because how can you credibly oppose evil when
you cheer for the murder of children?
And when you get so sectarian and racist about all this stuff.
Because this is where the racism is.
On Rumble, Gard, good to see you Gard, Liberty Conspiracy.
You can find him every evening on Twitter.
And I'm not sure what platform you're on besides Twitter right now, so you can let us know.
He says, I'm curious to hear more of Davidís thoughts about Judas sometime,
just to contemplate more on Good Friday and Easter.î Iíll give you my thoughts on The Chosen.
I havenít watched it. We started watching the first season and I was like, as I said before, you know, it can be a good thing for some people who have never been exposed to it if they get the right stuff, but you never know how they are spinning you.
And I thought about it at a very early age.
I watched The Ten Commandments and that's a great movie, very well made movie.
Of course Cecil B. DeMille's made it as a silent film as well as, you know, re-doing
it with Charlton Heston.
But that fixed in my mind, you know, every time I think of Moses, I see Charlton Heston.
I don't like that, right?
There's a reason that God did not wait
to have Christ come to earth
when he didn't wait until he had TV and radio and film,
right?
Because he didn't want you to focus on the outside. Humans look at the
outside. God looks at the inside. And so, when you look at the Bible, it's very rare
that it'll mention something about physical characteristics of somebody. I don't think
there's any physical characteristics mentioned about Jesus or any of the disciples or apostles,
anything like that. You have a description of King Saul talking
about how tall he was. David is described as good looking and ruddy or red or whatever.
I don't know if he had red hair or not. I mean, there was a mixture of a lot of people
that got mixed into his family line. He could have had red hair. I don't know. But they
don't really go into any detail like that because God is focused on the interior. People write books. What do we do? A good
writer will go through all kinds of detail describing everything all around to create
a picture, a visual picture of everything. Describe the environment that's there, the
homes that they're in, what they're driving, what they're wearing, all the rest of the stuff, what they look like and all of that.
Names for everybody and all the rest of this.
God is really more interested in His interaction with people.
And so, you know, that's part of what I don't like about these things.
You know, if the chosen gets people to read the Bible, great.
And then they'll see how much they've changed it.
But just don't go with those preconceptions
that are there. As I always say, I've read the book and the book was better. I always
heard that when people would make a movie out of a book. Yes, it definitely is better.
The Lord of the Rings is better than even the movie and I thought the first series of
the first trilogy was pretty good. But the book is much better. And the Bible is way
better and much better than what they did with the chosen.
The reason I mention that is because Gard talked about Judas. They put in a whole back
story of Judas and they made Matthew autistic and all the rest of this stuff. And then what
really turned me off about it is the trailer for season two and they had Mary sitting with another woman and they're kind
of writing Jesus' speech, the Sermon on the Mount, as a speech. It's like, wow! How hard
can you get away from all this? But you need to go back to the Ten Commandments. Even the
extent that everybody still shows a burning bush, right? But if you read the text, there was a man standing in it.
Why is that never shown?
And what is that about?
You know, there's a man standing there with a Shadrach, Meshach, and a Bednego in the fiery furnace
as well, wasn't it?
One like unto the Son of Man.
What is that about? So we miss a lot
when we take that kind of approach
to it, when we go for the visceral and we go for movies. Read the book. Read the book.
Again, I don't plead with the case of celebrity converts. We never know what their situation is. But how many times have you
heard people come back and say, well I've been around Christians in church and my family
and all this. But it wasn't until just now when they're 50 or 60 years old they decide
I'd read the Bible and they can't believe it. It's truly amazing when they read it.
And it is truly an amazing book. And it's even more amazing
when you match it up with the prophecies that are there that we can see having
been fulfilled in Christ already. Rumble, Dougalog, thank you for the tip. He says
thank you David. You're way better at bringing God's Word than Ken Colvin.
Here's some gas for the tank. Well thank you.
That's faint praise, but thank you.
I don't know that Ken does that at all.
On rumble, DG8, thank you for the tip.
He said David Hagee takes money from Israel.
He's fine with the gospel being banned in Israel.
He also states no reason to tell Jews about Jesus, just like Paul White, I guess. He says they'll all get a second chance and accept
Jesus and his fraud. That's one of the biggest things, right? No, your chance right now,
folks, is now. Now, Carpe diem. Seize the day. This is your chance. Christ is going to come
back like a thief in the night. There are no second chances.
You might die today in a car accident.
There's no second chances.
Don't waste that time.
Rumble, do not obey.
Thank you for the tip.
He says, ìThou shalt not kill.î Exodus 20.
They pick and choose what they want.
Okay, Guards Liberty Conspiracy is also on Rumble, so Rumble and Twitter.
Mel Gibson responded to a guest that Tucker Carlson had on, former Congressman Kurt Weldon.
He talked about a lot of different things.
He talked about how the CIA would kill people with rapid cancer and it's like, well, what
do you think about that jab?
Yeah, I know it came from the CIA and the intelligence communities and that type of
thing as well.
But you know, what about the turbo cancer?
Does that count?
I know they give people, you know, they have a lot of different ways to assassinate people
and make it look the other way.
But what about the mass murder of the jab that we know about?
You want to talk about that? Anyway, so he
went on with Tucker Carlson and he was talking about one of the things he talked about was
9-11. Well, Mel Gibson shared a clip where they were talking about it and then commented,
Mel Gibson did, he said, three buildings collapsed as if they were programmed to do so. Not two,
but three. To this day, nobody has explained how Building 7 fell, even though no plane
hit it.� He said, �The towers were designed to withstand airplane impacts.� That�s
right. They were designed to withstand a contemporary commercial Boeing 757 or whatever hitting
it when they made it. That was part of the building code and it wasn't a
theory because the Empire State Building had been, back in the day, hit by a plane. So they said,
well, that could happen again and you're going to have to design this to withstand an impact from
a contemporary airliner. So Mel Gibson says, so what really happened that day and why is no one
allowed to talk about it? Because, you know, Tucker? And why is no one allowed to talk about it?� Because Tucker Carlson said he wasn�t allowed to talk about it. And he
didn�t talk about it. As a matter of fact, Tucker Carlson wouldn�t let people � when
he had people on his show, he wouldn�t let them show the pictures that they had. Take
a look at how these buildings are just falling in free fall, that type of thing. I had somebody
who had sent me a song and I�ve � it I was on a computer that I still haven't been
able to get data off of for a while, and some disk drives that I've lost the cabling.
You know, that's the really grinding thing about this.
You've got a lot of data.
I've got a lot of data.
I've got a lot of footage that I shot at Colonial Williamsburg.
That was really good footage that I shot. And on this
film footage that I shot at 24 frames. I like the 24 frames. It looks
cinematic. And that was some of the early early cameras that started, you know,
single lens reflex cameras that were doing video. The Nikon D 90, I think was what we had. And anyway,
I've got a lot of great footage. I'd love to use this B roll here,
but I can't get it on the data.
I can't get the disc because I don't have the cabling. These are old discs.
I can't find it. It's not the cabling,
but it's the power cord for that particular group of discs. Anyway,
um, the, um, I got off on this tangent,
and he says, enough with the fear, it's time for the truth about 9-11, about history, about all of
us. Oh, I was going to talk about the music that I couldn't get to. Guy sent us the thing and he had,
I use it on the old show, but I don't have access to that music now because of the disc. That's why
I got onto that.
And what it was, he just kept repeating, three buildings, two planes, three buildings, two
planes, three buildings, two planes.
But it was a good song.
It wasn't repetitive.
It wasn't a rap song.
It was a good song.
But that was the emphasis.
Three buildings, two planes.
Do the math, right?
But here's the situation, right? We have,
he says, why, it's time for the truth. And, you know, we need to have the truth about
9-11. Well, you think you're going to get it from Trump? Rudy Giuliani was part of the
cover-up, a big part of the cover-up. You got Howard Lutnick who knew not to go to work that day
These are Trump's closest friends and advisors and so, you know, he says oh we got to have people who are
people of integrity so
Kurt Weldon
said
Trump needs to appoint people of impeccable integrity to a commission that
would study the facts.
Yeah, maybe he could get Rudy and Lutnik to do that.
Maybe he could get Gina Haspel, that person of integrity who tortured people, covered
up the torture, and then used the lies from that torture to lie us into the war with Iraq.
People of integrity, impeccable integrity and character. I don't see them
around Trump do you? I don't see anybody like that around Trump. Well then dismiss the idea
of a conspiracy theorist. He said, you know what gets me as reporters who call people
conspiracy theorists? Well, that's all the CIA does. They're the ones who create the
conspiracies. He says, As a matter of fact, they
have whole courses for their agents on how to make people look like they are conspiracy
theorists. Yeah. What was it? When Pompeo was there, he said, I went to West Point,
they told us we don't steal, cheat or tolerate people
do.
He said then I went to the CIA and they had classes on all those things.
They also had classes on coups and all the rest of this as well.
Thomas Massey talked a little bit, and you want to talk about people of integrity, you're
not going to find too many of them in Congress.
If they're in Congress, they will be marginalized, pushed to the side, or pushed out.
Thomas Massey gave an example of why Congress does nothing and why it is so corrupt.
Like a lobbyist can't buy me food.
But I can go to lunch, pick up the tab, and the lobbyist can write me a $5,000 check
to my campaign, and then my campaign can pay for the food.
Yeah. So they've created this rule to say that lobbyists can't buy you food, but what
good does it do when the lobbyists can give you the money and you buy the food?
And that's common practice?
Yeah. Like, it's a campaign expense at that point.
Don't shoot the messenger.
And that's just, I mean, that's the way it works.
I'm giving you an example of a rule that doesn't really work.
Like you can put rules in place.
What are some other things?
The lobbyists, when they give you money, ostensibly they're not giving you their money.
They're not even giving you their corporation's money.
They are giving you money from employees of that corporation who have pooled their money
into like a club or a group and they've been persuaded maybe by their management that they
should give a little back to this because their job would be more secure if they supported
their lobbying efforts in DC. So the employee, you're actually
ostensibly,
it's money from employees of that company that's being channeled to the lobbyists
that's then given to you and the lobbyists are supposedly representing the employees interests.
That's the workaround they have to keep corporations from giving members of
Congress money directly. So fair enough people argue for that case, whether it's
a charity, whether it's even frankly a country, but there's a place where I think I would intervene.
Please intervene. Yeah
The question is does a foreign country have the right to be represented in my office and I don't think they necessarily do
and so I run afoul I haven't banned lobbyists, but
I don't people I don't accept meetings when people come to lobby for foreign countries.
Yeah. That's all right there.
And he's also introduced bills to say, well, if you are a citizen of another country, you shouldn't be in the government.
That would be people like Oz from Turkey and Rashida Tlaib from Palestine.
That's what she's all about, waving the Palestinian flag when she wins.
And of course, the people like the congressman, I don't even remember his name, who wore
his Israeli Defense Force uniform to Congress.
Yeah, lots of them.
Lots of them.
Well, we're going to take a break and when we come back, we're going to talk about the pronouncement from the White House.
Innovations are saying that the American government can manipulate time and space.
Is this hyperbole or not?
We're going to take a quick bit of a little bit of a little bit of a
little bit of a
little bit of a
little bit of a
little bit of a
little bit of a
little bit of a
little bit of a
little bit of a
little bit of a
little bit of a little bit of a Decoding the mainstream propaganda. You are committing thought crime.
Turn off this broadcast now.
You are committing thought crime. Turn off this broadcast now.
Commit thought crime.
Yeah, well let's talk about some thought crimes here. The US can manipulate time and space. This is, it possesses technology to do that.
To manipulate, to bend time and space, said White House Innovation Czar, Michael Kratios.
He delivered the remarks at a forum in Austin.
It's called the Endless Frontiers Retreat.
Just weeks after being confirmed
as director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, RT has the story here.
Golden Age of America that Trump is talking about says the US can emerge as a global leader
by making smart choices regarding public funding and deregulating innovation. So, you know, our future,
whether or not we're going to have a society move forward,
it's all going to be determined on the government.
How un-American is that?
How un-Christian is that, right?
That's not what this country is founded on.
That's not what made America great.
Not at all.
That's what made communists and countries fail.
That's what made any authoritarian country fail.
For everybody to passively follow the government, boy, when you look at what happened in 2020,
everybody just passively did what the government said.
Churches shut down, schools shut down, stores shut down, everything shut down because the
government says so.
And they're going to fix it.
We're going to wait until they've got a solution and they're going to fix it.
So let's wait for the government to lead us into a better world, right?
No.
No.
No, no, no, no.
But listen to the technological hubris here and the pride.
This is his quote.
�Our technologies permit us to manipulate time and space.
They leave distance annihilated. They cause things to grow and
to improve productivity." So is that hyperbole? Is that a metaphor to say, well, we can manipulate
time and space? I mean, maybe what he's just saying is that, you know, we can travel in
airplanes very quickly and get places and stuff like that, or we can use technology
to communicate with people instantaneously over the internet.
Maybe that's what he's saying.
Or maybe he's saying something else, because later in the speech he said we have to overcome
the sclerosis of the state.
We have to achieve scientific discoveries that will bend time and space, make more with
less and drive us further into the endless frontier." Well, I think, you know, whatever he means by that, you know, whether he's talking about
some kind of, you know, super tech that is able to manipulate the time-space continuum,
or if he's just talking about technological leadership, this is the same kind of technological
pride, same kind of technological hubris that we've
seen from Mark Andreessen who said, �Technology can solve our problems, and if technology
creates a problem, then more technology can solve that problem.
Technology can do everything.� Technology is their God.
They take pride in it.
You know, we call them technocrats.
Sometimes they call them technobats because they act like children.
But actually they're techno babbles, techno babblers, right?
They're like the people who built the Tower of Babel.
They have that kind of arrogance, that kind of pride.
And I think a good example of this is a kind of a – this is a guy who does a lot of contract
work for some pretty big
companies and pretty big networks and things like that.
He puts this out as if it was a trailer for something that is coming up, but he really
did capture the essence of what these techno-babblers, the techno-tower-babble people, really believe
they're going to be able to do
because it engineer earth
or we could say geoengineering
says we have to become planetary engineer
present us with challenges
wiped out nearly all life in the past.
But technology gives us powers that no other species has ever known.
If we wield them properly, we could engineer a planet beyond our wildest dreams.
One that even outlives its natural lifespan.
natural lifespan.
What new wonders will we build? We see gigantic cities
and orbiting corals.
Our powers might surprise us. We can do anything. We are gods, right?
anything we are God
engineering or ways not the spirit of the tower battle isn't that the spirit of these technocrats in and around the White House
think it really is
yeah that name of the guy that does that is MelodySheep.com.
Melody Sheep, he does really good work, but that's a worldview that I do not support,
obviously.
One of pride and arrogance.
Trump himself has recently alluded to advanced technologies that have not been revealed to
the public, and we know that, right?
I've always said it's a big mistake to underestimate the technology of these people.
And it's a big mistake to overestimate their ethics and morality.
Last week he claimed China would hesitate to escalate trade tensions with the US partly
due to the existence of secret weapons in the American arsenal.
He said, we have weaponry, said Trump, that nobody has any idea what it is.
And it's the most powerful weapons in the world that we have, more powerful than anybody,
even, not even close, he said.
Well, you can look at this as just a bunch of, you know, typical Trump boasting.
But they do have technology that we have not seen.
I think we saw the effects of it on 9-11, but that's another story.
AI, says Russia, can replace half of Russia's civil servants, says the Minister for Digital
Development.
This is the same kind of stuff that Elon Musk is doing.
All the governments of the world, they want a world government and all of them want to
replace bureaucrats with AI
and robots. They want to replace their armies with AI and robots. Why is that? Well, because
you never know if somebody is going to blow the whistle on them or somebody is going to
throw a monkey wrench into their plans. They want to have fewer humans to do that. They
want to have everything under their control. They want to have fewer humans to do that. They want to have everything under their control.
They want to have more control if they can have more centralization.
This is really about minimizing government bureaucrats and maximizing governance through
AI.
So Russia, says this RT article, could, says the digital development minister, could potentially
replace at least half of its civil servants with AI.
He said, I believe AI can certainly replace half, possibly even more.
Putin said the country should be, quote, a leader not only in creation but also in the
scale of implementation, the introduction of artificial intelligence in every single
sphere of our lives.
To lie to people, to be the authority that can convince them, to spy on
them, to see if they're believing it, and the rest of this, right? Government reports
indicate that Russia employs over 3 million public servants across the governance, security,
and social services. In other words, everything but the military, okay? They said that works out to 160 public servants for every 10,000 citizens.
Well you know, we have a tremendous bureaucracy as well.
When I look at Russia, they have 3 million bureaucrats.
The US has 2.7 million bureaucrats for a population of 347.
That works out to 128 bureaucrats for each person.
That's more than Russia, 0.7%.
And when you throw in all the bureaucrats at the state and local level, the number that
I found for state and local employees is 19.6 million.
So you add to that the 2.7 million federal employees that are not part of the military
comes up to 15.5 million.
We got a 6.5% of our population works for the government.
And they want to move them over to AI.
Now I've talked in the past about AI
agents. What we've seen so far from AI is basically the chat programs that are
going through and collating information and that you can query, not always trust
because they hallucinate, that type of thing. But there's something else that is
coming which is an AI agent.
It operates and can do tasks. It operates much more at a much higher level. And you can give it some abstract tasks to do and it can work out the individual steps to do it. And now we have
several companies, this is an article from Coin Telegraph, your AI digital twin can take
your meetings and can comfort your loved ones when you die, it says.
And we've got several companies that are working on that.
If artificial intelligence could stand in for you, if it could take your meetings, if
it could answer your emails, if it could even comfort your loved ones long after you're
gone, would you let it?
They said that's no longer a hypothetical question.
A new class of startups is building digital twins using AI agents.
AI replicas of real people that act, speak, and remember just like their human counterparts.
And this story really kind of talks about two different aspects of this.
One of them is basically cloning you and what you believe.
In other words, training it to respond as you would respond, to see the world as you
would see the world and that type of thing. The other one is talking about actually the
AI agency, where you would have it do tasks for you and relieve you of all the mundane things that you do on a regular basis.
So,
I said a new class of startups is starting digital twins, AI replicas of real people that act, speak and remember,
just like their human counterparts.
There is a serious attempt to capture human essence and machine form with real-world use cases and profound cultural
implications. and machine form with real-world use cases and profound cultural implications."
Well, to capture the human essence, what is that really?
As we said, these post-humanists that are out there, these people who talk about singularity,
how they're going to merge with machines, it's like how they're going to transfer their
essence into some kind of a robot or something so that they can quote live forever.
I said well you don't even know what you are if you think that.
You can't transfer your spirit in there.
You are more than a collection of memories or electrical impulses.
Somebody can make a copy of you and that's a big part of what they're talking about here,
is making a copy of people. There is a company in South Korea that is called Re-Memory.
And they're pioneering the concept of allowing bereaved families to speak to a hyper-realistic AI version
of their deceased loved one. And Deep Brain AI is the company behind
the service. They called it a tool for healing. Critics have called it grotesque.
Dan Thompson, founder and CEO of a company called Sensei, didn't set out to
build a startup. He was actually writing a book. He said, I'd hit my head. I'd lost
my memory. That experience struck me with the fear of disappearing. That's a weird
way to look at it. Sensei creates AI replicas of individuals. Thompson calls
them virtual humans or personas. Now this has become a thing and they're just
referred to them as sonas. Sonas. Personas. They've been trained using documents, videos, interviews,
emails and more. They don't just sound like you, they act on your behalf. He said, I've
had people interact with my replica for hours on Telegram and not realize that it wasn't
me. He said it's 90 to 95 percent indistinguishable. So their sonas, their replicas are embedded
Indistinguishable. So their sonas, their replicas, are embedded into apps, websites, devices, and they learn
continuously.
One interesting aspect is that the digital replica can continue to grow and evolve once
the training is over.
If a replica evolves after death though, is it still you?
You know, it's kind of interesting.
It makes me, when I see this, it makes me think of the first Superman movie with Christopher Reeve. And, you know, they've got the baby
is making the journey from Krypton to Earth. And as he's in there, his father, Marlon Brando,
or at least a persona, a sona of him, right, is interacting and talking
to the baby, answering questions, training the baby and all the rest of this stuff.
And that's basically what their idea is.
It is to create a replica of you that would be able to interact, be interactive, but it
would interact with people by imitating you.
Ben Gertzell is the chief AI advisor
of a company called Twin Protocol.
Now, Ben Gertzell is, as they call him, an AI luminary.
He's somebody that everybody in the AI industry really likes.
And when I interviewed Hugo de Gares multiple times,
he said, you know, you really need to talk
to my friend, Ben Gertzell. It'sis multiple times said you know you really need to talk to my friend Ben Gertzel it's like well you know Hugo was
something of a skeptic about this stuff right he was the opposite of Ray
Kurzweil and he was skeptical that this may not all turn out too good right but
Ben Gertzel was but he was still you know, still going to do it, and like all of his scientific friends,
even though he thought he was creating a god-like superintelligence and that there was a good
chance that it would kill us all, he still wanted to do it.
Ben Gertzell was even more into that, so I never did interview Ben because I didn't want
to push that.
But Ben Gertzell was behind the company that made, and you've seen the picture I've shown
it as well in the past, was some female robot that they had there in Saudi Arabia that was,
it didn't really have all that impressive and animatronics, wasn't all that much different
from a Disney thing or something.
But it was interactive and they gave it citizenship
in Saudi Arabia.
Mohammed bin Salman did to show how trendy and progressive they are that they've got
a robot.
They made the robot the first citizen of a country.
Well, that was Ben Gertzell who was behind that, but he's also there with Twin Protocol.
The company focuses on vaults, which are curated data sets of your books, your
lectures, your videos, your voice memos.
You know, you got about 6,000 hours of my stuff, you know.
It's usually a great one of those things.
An AI layer that captures your tone, your style, your diction, your intent, an interactive
version of you that responds with your knowledge and in your voice.
An AI twin isn't about perfect replication, they said, it's about purpose.
It's about legacy conversations, professional coaching, curation matters, they said.
Your AI twin, however, when we talk about the agents, it might be your calendar assistant,
it might be your family archivist, your lifelong productivity
partner. It could become a tool of self-reflection, they said. Your twin can actually show you
insights about yourself. It's like a mirror, but smarter. Oh, mirror, mirror on the wall.
Who's the smartest of them all? Not you, dummy. You're asking me questions. I'm just AI. You start seeing patterns, though, in your own thinking if you do this, they said.
And it also is set up to work with the Singularity Net ecosystem.
That's what I'm saying.
These people are fully on board with transhumanism, posthumanism, cyborgs, and all the rest of
stuff.
It is a very evil secular movement.
Users maintain control over their vaults, over their replicas, right down to their ability
to shut it all off.
It's integrated within the blockchain to verify the source of all training data.
In a world of deep fakes, provenance is power.
Provenance, in other words, who created it. I haven't talked about it for a
while, but Coalition for Content Provenance and Authentication, the CCPA, I refer to it as the
Chinese Communist Party of America. But that's a coalition that's put together by hardware and
software groups. We had ARM and the processors that are part of that
was the hardware.
Intel was a part of it.
Microsoft, as well as Adobe on the software side.
And then they team with government and media
because they want to be able to put this on machines
and stop you from creating written work, audio work,
still picture memes, video, anything. and stop you from creating written work, audio work,
still picture memes, video, anything. If you are not an approved person,
then they will have this coalition
for content provenance and authentication.
They're gonna see who created it.
And if you are not on their approved list of creators,
you won't even be able to upload the stuff.
That's how they stop things from going viral.
So yeah, that all fits into this stuff.
Curated AI twins could serve as mentors, tutors,
or interactive textbooks,
bringing firsthand voices into classrooms
or allowing students to ask questions
to a digital version of a historical figure,
like Superman interacting with his
Marlon Brando father there.
We're building trusted extensions.
Your twin should be able to do work for you without even, without ever forgetting that
it's yours.
No, isn't that great?
Also makes me think of that comedy with Michael Keaton called Multiplicity,
where he's able to go in and just clone physical copies of himself.
And they come out the same age and maturity as he is instantaneously, right?
But they're helping him with work.
It's basically an AI agent.
So what these people are doing, except their agent is going to work in
the virtual world, his were actually physical.
And so it was great, it freed him up for all kinds of stuff. And then his clone decided that it needed help. And so it made a copy of
itself. And you know, just like if you got a photocopier, a copy of a copy isn't
quite as sharp. And his copy that he cloned really
wasn't very sharp and that was where the comedy was coming in. Anyway, Harvard
research suggests that a well-used personal assistant could recover up to
45% of a person's time even if an AI twin gives you back 20%. That would be
transformative, wouldn't it? What could you do with that time? Who could you
spend with it? Again, you know, that's the question that was answered by that and that they had a lot of fun with
in that movie, multiplicity.
This is not about replacement.
It's about reflection.
It's about agency.
It's about amplification.
Twin Protocols self-serve product is aiming to cost as little as $25 to get started.
I bet it goes up pretty quickly. The platforms roadmap includes everything
from AITV where you have two twins having conversations with each other in real time.
So you can have two clones of yourself talking to each other, I guess. Or to holographic
twin deployments. It's also creating a token-based economy with a twin token that can allow users
to earn revenue by licensing
interactions with their twin.
You know, it's kind of interesting, you know, when you look at this and you think about
cloning and stuff.
I don't...
It'd be interesting to see that.
I don't think, you know, they're talking about twin TV and stuff.
I don't think that'd be very interesting.
I don't know.
I mean, you know, if...
The way I do the program, I don't
really know what I'm going to say before I come on the program. I mean, I've looked at
some articles. I've got a general idea. But many times I just go off in another tangent
and I don't know if that's good or bad. But I just try to be open to the spirits leading
on things like that. I don't know where that comes into play with any of this stuff, right? It's all going to be scripted and programmed. It seems to me like somebody
reading off a teleprompter. You want to have AI reading off of your teleprompters? Because
that's all it's going to be able to do. It doesn't have a connection to God. It can't
follow the leading of any of these things. Anyway, it's got also no concern about telling you a lie. It's
seen over and over again from AI. The company is also developing clever ways
to help everyday users. Imagine getting a text prompt each morning, just one
question about your life. And over time you're training your twin without even
realizing it, they said. Well, that's really what they said boomers and millennials are looking for, but the younger
generation is looking for some kind of a personality extension that is not a replica of themselves.
Now this is a company called Cloney. They have a different take on this. Their avatars aren't
meant to mirror humans in form or in tone. Indeed, they function as expressive agents of counterculture.
And so it's kind of a surreal population. Our avatars are emotionally charged. They're
not trying to look like you. They're built to explore identity, not to replicate it.
I'm not really sure what that means. It sounds like a bunch of doublespeak, but anyway they said they're being used in brand
campaigns now though. In music videos, influencers are using these things.
Doing it for digital storytelling, each avatar has a unique voice of visual
aesthetic. Some interact with fans, others represent values or products. Their goal is to create an autonomous society
of digital beings that reflect the cultural realities
of a new generation.
So they're going to do this.
They're going to use very attractively drawn or created
women and even men to sell you products.
And you're already seeing a lot of this on YouTube.
People put up stuff and they'll use a different voice.
They'll use, they don't use their face.
You know, they have some kind of an AI character
that is speaking.
The most distinctive contribution is philosophical,
rejection of the idea that AI twins
have to be human-like at all.
We're not building nostalgia machines.
We're building future identities. So they said it's kind of interesting to see the generational divide. Millennials
and boomers are looking at realism, the gen Z and alpha. The people are leaning into what
they call multiplicity with all of. A digital twin movement. The philosophical
questions. Who owns your likeness? Who gets to train it? Should your avatar comfort your
grandchildren? Or should it just organize your inbox? Isn't technology wonderful? Don't
you just love all the wonderful things that it's bringing to us?
You. Yes, you. Do you dread waking up in the morning?
Are you feeling helpless in your society?
Perhaps even a bit lost?
Well, look no further.

Yeah, that's the fastian bargain that they want people to make with them, isn't it?
Well, you know, when we look at these technobrrats, it's just come out that Musk wants to quote
seed the earth with a legion of high IQ babies.
He sees a looming demographic apocalypse, says the report from Wall Street Journal,
an investigation by the Wall Street Journal focused on what it described as a harem drama
surrounding Musk.
He's had at least 14 known children with four different
women, although the actual number could be much higher. I guess he sees himself as a
patriarch of a new technocracy, right? His relationships with the women reportedly often
involve hush money payments and heated parental disputes. At the heart of Musk's reproductive drive lies his quote dark view
unquote of the future in which humanity could perish as a species due to poor demographics.
The Wall Street Journal says he is driven to correct the historic moment by helping
to seed the earth with more human beings of high intelligence.
You know, people like him. That's what we need is more Elon Musk's. Maybe we do. I don't know. Ashley
St. Clair, I think we need more people who have a different world perspective on this.
Ashley St. Clair, one of the women that Musk allegedly had an affair with and who claims
to be the mother of one of his children, showed the Wall Street Journal a message purportedly
sent by the billionaire.
She's gotten involved in a very kind of nasty back and forth.
She seems to feel jilted by him in terms of his paternity acknowledgement.
In it, Musk allegedly referred to his offspring as a quote, legion, invoking the ancient Roman
military units known for expanding imperial reach and insisted on making even more babies
with other women, quote, to reach legion level before the apocalypse, he reportedly said.
To do that, we'll need to use surrogates.
In 2021, Musk said that the low birth rates were one of the biggest risks to civilization.
If people don't have more children, civilization is going to crumble.
Well, let me just say, you know, I think it is interesting when we do look at the declining
– not even just declining, I mean it's collapsing.
Birth rates throughout Western civilization are collapsing, and there's a lot of different
aspects to it.
There are social and spiritual aspects to the fact that people don't want to have children.
And of course there's physical aspects to it.
You know, the pollutants that are in our food and our drugs and the COVID shot, you know, significantly reducing the pregnancies of
women who have gotten shot.
And so there's all these different aspects of it, but a lot of those things are being
done to us, and it's difficult for us to, you know, we can try to avoid taking the shot
or whatever, but it's so pervasive in our environment, so pervasive in the food that we eat, it's difficult to do something about it.
But the one thing that we can do about it is we can change our thinking about it.
It's kind of interesting that Musk and the technocrats have a clear energetic vision
of the future that they want to pursue.
I don't share it.
I think it's evil.
I think it is secular, atheist, opposed to God and so forth.
Why is
it that Christians don't embrace that? You know, we look at times of renewal throughout
the Bible. It's always spoken about God turning the hearts of the fathers towards the children.
Our society has gone so far down the other road that we're going to even have to have
the hearts of the mothers turn toward children.
It's even, for the first time ever, we have women less interested in having children,
less interested in having a marriage than we do men.
That is what they have done with putting women into the workforce and telling them that that
is their future, that's the only important and honorable thing that they can do is to work for a corporation.
You know, don't work with your family, don't serve your family, don't create a unit there.
No, you get absorbed by the corporate borg. That's where your fulfillment is going to
lie. Now that is a lie. I mentioned this at the very end of the show yesterday.
A number of US adults don't want children.
The number who don't want it has doubled over the past 20 years.
They say we found the percentage of non-parents who don't want any children rose from 14%
in 2002 to 29% in 2023.
Michigan State University study.
They refer to the people who don't want children, they refer to them as child-free, who never
want to have any children.
The Bible refers to these people as lovers of self.
Lovers of self.
Of the more than 42,000 participants who did not have children, 29% were child free. The number of people
who would voluntarily forgo having children far exceeded those who were unable to have
children for biological reasons, which was 3.7%. So most people are choosing not to have
children. Yeah, there are physical things in our environment that are harmful, that's about four percent of it.
But 30% of it is people who have been poisoned, their minds have been poisoned against it,
and they don't realize what they're missing.
I've known a lot of people like that.
That to me is one of the saddest things about the time we live in.
Just, it's hard to believe.
Just so readily and willingly giving up on
the greatest physical blessing that you can have.
Yeah. And you know that because of being a father now. It is amazing, isn't it?
It really is. Just getting to watch him grow and change day by day is incredible.
And interact. He's a really sweet kid. I mean, when he looks at he looks at you, you know, he gives you a big smile and everything.
He's only about five months old.
Is that it?
Yeah, he'll be six months old on the sixth of next month.
Yeah, and they miss out on all that stuff.
As a matter of fact, we've got a lot of grumpy people who now want to ban pets for the climate
as well.
We'll talk about that in a minute. You know, you give up on children, on pets, on everything, but you know, you've got your
iPhone there.
Isn't that great?
That's there to fulfill you.
I see so many people talking about, oh, I don't want kids because I want to travel.
I want to see things.
There's nothing you're going to see that's more beautiful than your own, you know child smile. That's right. It's I
Can't even describe how sad that is to me just
Sad and pathetic and just so utterly lonely
That's right. Yeah, and you know, it is the kind of thing people who who like to travel
You know, I've met a lot of people, especially people
from, it typically seems to affect people from really big cities, who frequently I've
noticed are not cosmopolitan, they're very provincial.
They've, in many cases, Karen is from New York, met so many of her friends who've never
been out of New York.
They've not even traveled through America, so they don't know what they're missing,
right?
And they have this really strange distorted perspective of what the rest of the world
is like because they've never ventured out.
And I think the same, you could say that to your travel buddies, you know, just you, you
know, think how that has opened up your mind.
Well, that's nothing compared to having a child.
And taking that journey, that opens you up to a lot more stuff that you have just decided
that, well, I've already got everything that I need and I don't even need to try that.
Especially in today's age where by travel they usually just mean going somewhere and
getting drunk in a different location.
Yeah.
They're not going somewhere to live in the culture or anything like that, right?
Yeah.
That's what I think of travel.
I mean, when Karen and I got married.
Go to the beach and get drunk there in Mexico or Spain or Italy.
Yeah.
That's a real good use of your time and money.
Excellent work.
Great planning.
We decided for a lot less money than we would have spent to go to some resort or go on a cruise.
I graduated in December.
I didn't start until March, and so we got married in January.
We went to the UK and went cheap.
We did everything that was free.
We hardly had any money for eating even, but we stayed for a couple months.
As a matter of fact, we were having such a good time, we extended it.
And things got really tight in terms of money.
But we lived in the culture there for a couple of months.
And that was really great.
And, you know, went to a lot of free museums and things like that.
But yeah, it was as opposed to, you know, something where you go to a resort where everything
is just, and like you said, just get drunk or eat on a cruise or this or that.
That's not necessarily, you're not learning anything.
You're not really, you know, you're just, you're taking a vacation, but it's not like,
I think of travel.
I think of it as learning something anyway.
From 2000 to 2022, the fertility rate in the US dropped from 2.06 children per woman to
only 1.67.
Well below the replacement level of around 2.1 children.
It wasn't even at the replacement level in 2000.
And so that's the issue.
It's not even the physical stuff.
It's the other stuff.
Well, we're going to take a quick break, and when we come back, we are going to talk
a little bit about what the environmentalists have in mind for our four-legged friends.
They don't like children.
They don't like humans.
They don't like cars.
They don't like dogs and cats either.
We'll be right back. Bye. I'm going to be a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a

Now welcome back.
A comment from what we were talking about before on Rumble from Atomic Dog.
He says, �My wife had an argument with her sister about Israel.
The sister believes that God gave the land to the Jews and they have every right to wipe out Gaza. from Atomic Dog. He says, �My wife had an argument with her sister about Israel. The
sister believes that God gave the land to the Jews and they have every right to wipe
out Gaza.� My wife just gave up. Well, you know, God has given them the land. He�s
taken them out of the land. He�s given them the land. He�s taken them out of the land.
Seems like it�s God�s decision, not Netanyahu�s decision. They were taken out of the land
not because they didn�t have the best swords or spears or arrows or tanks or
jets or whatever. They were taken out because God said you're going to be taken out. And
having more of those things and killing more people is just kind of a prideful, faithless
way to say that God is going to fulfill those things.
Anyway, I want to talk
before we get into the pets and the climate stuff a little bit more about AI.
OpenAI is secretly building a social network. They saw Musk doing that on X
with Grok and they got to do it as well. But there's a reason that they're doing
this kind of stuff. OpenAI has been secretly building its own social media platform, which The Verge reports
is intended to resemble X.
They said it was social media feed that revolves around chat GPT's new image generation capabilities,
which they just recently upgraded significantly with the Gimbley style AI images and things like that that
everybody is using.
So they want to combine that into a social media thing.
It sounds reminiscent of how X directly integrates Musk's Grok AI model into the website where
it operates both as a standalone chat bot while also being capable of responding directly
to users' posts at their request.
The grok integration with X has made everyone jealous, especially how people create viral
tweets by getting it to say something stupid."
Now that's what it seems to be really good at.
But I think there's another aspect of this that they're not talking about here, and that
is the fact that the AI feeds on our conversations.
It feeds on human content, even if it is stupid human content, like on social media, it still
feeds on it.
And it is constantly learning, watching and learning from us.
And whoever has the most access to people is one of the reasons why they want to shut
down TikTok.
And so all of them are competing to try to get humans to interact with their AI, to train
their AI.
That's the bottom line with all this stuff.
They are watching, they are imitating, they're trying to clone us, and that's what this is
all really about.
Of course, it's also from the government's perspective, using social media to propagandize
us and then be able
to get perfect feedback on whether or not we're buying the lies that they feed us.
A former OpenAI employee rages against Sam Altman, said he is a person of low integrity
and has jumped into a lawsuit that is there.
This individual jumped ship, went to Anthropic, co-founded by former open AIers over AI safety
and ethics concerns.
Researcher Todor Markov is now claiming in a new legal filing that his ex-boss is essentially
a really bad dude, says Futurism.
The root of Markov's complaint, as he explained it in his portion of a lengthy amicus brief
that also includes statements from 11 other former OpenAI employees, the roots of it are
that Altman's alleged lies about non-dispersion agreements that staffers are forced to sign
early in their time at the company.
Last year the researcher discovered the existence of the clause that essentially made him and other departing employees
give up their right to ever speak critically about OpenAI if they wanted to keep their vested equity in the
multi-billion dollar former employer.
During an all-hands meeting about the controversial clause Altman claimed that he had no knowledge of the existence,
only to be caught with egg on his face immediately after when Vox published leaked documents showing that he had signed
off on it.
Altman, he says, was, quote, a person of low integrity who had directly lied to employees
about their restrictive non-dispersion agreements.
This suggested to him that the CEO was very likely lying
to employees about a number of other important topics, including its commitment to building
safe artificial general intelligence. Well, of course, anybody can lie. And if there's
a great deal of money involved, well, you've got people who will kill you for that money,
as we have seen with the pharmaceutical companies and others. But there's now, you've got people who will kill you for that money, as we have seen with the pharmaceutical
companies and others.
But there's now, you remember the figure robots?
They were very impressive.
Those are the ones where the guy is interacting with it and it talks like a California dude.
Remember that?
Oh yeah, man.
Okay, yeah.
Okay, sure.
Sure enough.
Yeah, I'll do that.
Remember that?
Get me an orange or something like that. Okay, sure. Sure enough. Yeah, I'll do that. Remember that?
Get me an orange or something like that."
And it looks around and it finds the orange and hands it to him or puts it in the refrigerator
or look at these things and figure out where they need to go.
You know, you've got a basket of items in front of you.
Some of them need to go in the refrigerator.
Do they need to go in the cabinet?
What?
And all that.
And it was very impressive.
I was a little bit of a lag there, but it was very impressive in terms of its fluidity
of movement and its understanding of that.
And so they're one of the big companies that is out there competing with Elon Musk and
his optimist robots, and they all want to get into the factories to replace us.
It's huge.
I talked about it the other day.
There's a Chinese company that's doing it.
They want to make sure they've got 5,000 robots this year because that's what Musk has said
he's going to do is put 5,000 robots out into factories.
So I said, we're going to do that too.
We're going to match that goal.
And so both that Chinese company and Elon Musk wants to get 5,000 robots out there. Figure has worked with BMW and their car factory in South Carolina.
And they said, their CEO said, that they are already doing manufacturing work
at BMW with that robot.
But it appears that maybe that's not really what happened.
The humanoid robotics industry just got hit with a bombshell figure AI
one of Silicon Valley's most hyped startups is facing serious allegations of exaggerating its progress with BMW and
Insiders are finally speaking out a new investigative report from fortune has exposed shocking
Discrepancies between figure CEO Brett Adcock's public claims and what's actually happening inside BMW's Spartanburg, South Carolina factory.
While Adcock has been telling investors and the media that a fleet of figure-02 robots are performing end-to-end operations at the plant,
BMW's own statements reveal a very different reality. What began as whispers in manufacturing circles has now exploded into a full-blown controversy
that threatens to undermine the company's credibility just as it seeks to raise a staggering
$1.5 billion in new funding at a $40 billion valuation, a figure that would place it above
established giants like Ford Motor Company.
At the heart of this growing scandal is a fundamental disconnect between what Figure AI's charismatic CEO Brett Adcock has been telling the world about his company's robots
working in BMW's Spartanburg, South Carolina plant, and what multiple independent reports
confirm is actually happening on the factory floor.
The implications of this discrepancy extend far beyond one startup's growing pains.
They strike at the very heart of the burgeoning humanoid robotics industry
and raise uncomfortable questions
about whether we're witnessing genuine technological breakthroughs
or carefully orchestrated hype
designed to separate investors from their money.
The controversy came to a head
when Fortune Tech correspondent Jason Del Rey
decided to fact check a February LinkedIn post by Adcock
that boldly declared Fig Figure had a fleet of robots
performing end-to-end operations at the BMW facility. This would represent a quantum leap
for humanoid robotics, the kind of seamless integration into complex manufacturing processes
that the industry has been promising for years but has consistently failed to deliver at scale.
Delray's subsequent investigation revealed a far less impressive
reality. According to BMW's own spokesperson, as of February the automaker was merely conducting
off-hour tests with a single-figure robot at any given time, with the machine performing
just one basic task, retrieving metal sheets and placing them into fixtures in preparation
for welding. This is about as far from end-to-end operations as one could imagine in automotive manufacturing.
When pressed about the glaring discrepancy between Adcock's claims and BMW's account,
the automaker declined to explain and instead directed all questions back to Figures founder,
who notably failed to respond to Fortune's inquiries.
This stonewalling only served to heightened suspicions that something was amiss in what was being
billed as one of the most significant humanoid robotics deployments to date.
The Wall Street Journal soon followed with its own investigation, uncovering
additional inconsistencies in Figures' narrative. Well, isn't that interesting?
Isn't that special? You know, we've seen a similar thing with
a car company that was called Nikolai, right, referring to Tesla. They had large 18-wheeler
trucks that they were building, and they were caught doing all kinds of fraudulent exhibitions,
for example, you know, showing the truck that was supposedly
operating when in fact it was just coasting downhill.
And many other things of that ilk.
That company is now folded, it's got lawsuits and the government is coming after them for
fraud.
That was Nicola.
Well, you know, the figure robot is very impressive, but they were looking for a lot of money, as he pointed out.
They were going to get funding that was going to be more
than Ford Motor Company has.
And so we see that as they're making these claims about
what's going on with BMW, BMW doesn't want to say anything.
They don't want to get involved in this,
but their silence is deafening, isn't it?
And it's the same type of thing.
You've got some business reporters who are saying,
well, something doesn't add up here.
It looks like they are hyping this
in a way that's not true.
So we see Sam Altman is hyping stuff like that
to the federal government,
telling them it's just too dangerous for people,
everybody to have access to this technology.
It needs to be restricted to me and maybe one or two other people.
We need your money as well. We need government money. That's Sam Altman. We know about Elon Musk.
We see what's happening with figure robots. And now we have Nvidia, which is at the core of a lot
of this stuff. Their chip that is there. the US restricted exports of Nvidia chips that are used by China's deep seek AI. And so the Trump
administration a couple of days ago told Nvidia that they could not export their
powerful H20 chips to China. Nvidia said the restrictions would cost the company up to five and a half billion
dollars. The H20 chip is not the most powerful product in Nvidia's inventory, but until now
it has been the most powerful chip that Nvidia could legally sell to China. So what they're
saying is that, you know, they would allow them to give a less powerful chip to China, but now they're restricting
even that, even more so.
Do you think that's going to work?
The sensational debut of DeepSeek prompted Chinese tech companies to order more than
$16 billion worth of H20 chips.
Banning the H20 makes little sense to us," said an analyst, speaking to investors.
He said, the H20 performance is low, well below already available Chinese alternatives.
A ban essentially simply hands the Chinese AI market over to Huawei.
So what he's saying is, by not allowing, by putting a tariff, not even a tariff, but putting
a ban on this, what you're doing is you're helping Huawei because now they've got a market.
They don't have to compete with Nvidia, which has got better chips than them.
So first you told them they can't put out their best chips.
There's no restrictions on Huawei improving their stuff.
And now you're going to reduce it even further. So you just basically hand it over the Chinese market to Huawei and
They will get stronger with this not only that but hasn't
50 years of drug prohibition shown us that you're not going to be able to stop that if they wanted the Nvidia chips as a
Matter of fact not even the h20
But whatever it is that is more powerful than that if the the Chinese want the more powerful chips, they can get the more powerful chips.
You can't say that, you know, when you look at, one of the reasons that prohibition doesn't
work, people would look at vice, like alcohol prohibition and other things like that, and
you would have, it's very easy to corrupt law enforcement and other people who would
be enforcing that because they look at it and it's like, well, that's not hurting anybody,
you know, or that's consensual, you should say.
That's vice.
Yeah, vice does hurt people, but they look at it as, well, that's not the same category
as murder or even as theft.
So yeah, if they want to pay me to let this product go through,
you know, this is a marketplace of willing buyer, willing seller, you know, it's easy
for them to rationalize that even if it is something that is harmful,
like fentanyl or whatever. They'll rationalize that and let it go. That's
how it corrupts our government, our law enforcement,
things like that. But when you get to something like a computer chip,
they are really going to be saying, well, I don't really care if the Chinese have this computer chip, they are really going to be saying,
well, I don't really care if the Chinese have this computer chip, and if you're going
to give me some money on the side, I'll let this thing go through.
Or they buy it in another country.
They buy it from another country.
Same way that they were doing it the reverse of what they were doing with their manufacturing.
They would do most of the manufacturing in China, then they would
ship it over for final assembly or whatever in Vietnam, and then Vietnam could sell it
into the United States. All of this stuff about prohibition and restrictions of products,
it just doesn't work. Practically it doesn't work. And you can look at the market effects
of this and how it's going to backfire right there. They've now helped the Chinese rather than hurting them.
And so Nvidia is trying to suck up to the United States as the US is shutting down their
ability to export a lesser chip, not their state of the art stuff.
Nvidia announces, quote, the engines of the world's AI infrastructure will be built in
America for the first time."
So they're pledging their allegiance to America.
Total AI infrastructure by NVIDIA could total $500 billion over the next four years.
And they may not be allowed to sell a lot of it to other people, depending on Trump
or whoever replaces them and their attitudes towards us.
They said tens of gigawatt AI factories are expected to be built in the coming years at
Nvidia.
Manufacturing Nvidia AI chips and supercomputers for American AI factories is expected to create
a massive number of jobs for robots who are going to create other robots.
And then right after making that announcement as a company,
the CEO of Nvidia
flew to Beijing and told the Chinese officials there
quote, we grew up in China. That's the same type of thing you see with the Elon Musk.
They're not going to give
up the Chinese market one way or the other. Nvidia's CEO Jensen Huang boarded a private
jet to Beijing shortly after the US Commerce Department announced a new export licensing
requirement for the H20 AI chips. Once there, Huang met with the head of a Chinese state-backed
trade body where he reaffirmed Nvidia's commitment
to the Chinese market despite a deepening trade war.
Wang emphasized that China remains an important market for Nvidia and expressed hope for continued
cooperation with Beijing and said, �We come from here.�
Well, there you go.
How is this all going to work out?
Who knows?
But you know these guys, they'll do anything for money. It's the love of money. They have no loyalty to anything or to anyone.
Well, we're going to take a quick break and we will be right back. The You're listening to the David Knight Show.
He's trumping the rain � the rain of Trump, R-E-I-G-N. Yeah, we�re
singing in the rain about how are we going to manage with the uncertainty. You know,
it was James Carville who said, �Hey, it�s the economy, stupid.� They don�t care about Monica Lewinsky. It�s the economy, stupid. Well, you know, it was James Carville who said, hey, it's the economy
stupid. They don't care about Monica Lewinsky. It's the economy stupid. Well,
you know, when we talk about the economy, guess what? It's the uncertainty stupid.
It's the stupid uncertainty. And Trump has put restrictions on us that are as
even more confining than that airplane door that he couldn't seem to fit the
umbrella through. Businesses are reporting fewer orders, less employment, weaker expectations.
The only thing going up is prices.
It says reason, and of course, what do we call that?
Stagflation or dragflation, as Gerald Solenty called it.
Yes, the uncertainty.
Last Tuesday, the day before Trump's Liberation Day tariffs were set to be imposed, White House Press Secretary Caroline Lovett was asked by a reporter about the possibility
of last-minute changes to the import taxes.
The president was asked and answered this yesterday, she said, he is not considering
an extension or delay.
But then less than 24 hours later, the White House announced that many of those tariffs
would in fact be delayed. Then Scott Besant, the Treasury Secretary, said this was Trump's strategy all along.
That same cycle of events has played out several times in the past three months.
New tariffs on imports from China and Mexico in early February.
Days after they were set to take effect, Trump postponed them.
On April 11, the White House announced a sweeping set of
tariff exemptions for televisions, phones, computer chips, and other electronics
imported from China. But by April 13th, two days later, Commerce Secretary Howard
Lutnick said those tariff exemptions were temporary. Later the same day, Trump
denied any exemptions had been made at all. The President now reportedly is considering another delay, this one on the 25% tariff
that he slapped on all imported cars and car parts.
So what tariffs will America charge tomorrow?
And what imports will be subject to them?
It seems to depend on the whims of one man, writes Reason. That's
what I've said all along. We can talk about the best way to raise taxes. We can talk about
whether or not we should cut government instead of raising taxes, instead of continuing to
kick the debt can down the road. But the question is, what is this uncertainty? It just takes
all of that talk off the table.
There's no point in talking about an income tax versus tariffs, or an income tax plus
tariffs, or any of this stuff, when he's constantly changing everything.
And again, this is why the power to do tariffs was given to the Congress, who foolishly said,
in an emergency the President can do it.
And this President does everything under a claimed emergency.
That's his way that he operates.
He declares an emergency, whether it's something that's real or not real.
And then he says that that gives him the right to act as a dictator.
And so we have martial law exerted over one thing after the other. The same playbook that he was using in 2020.
Same thing.
So Reason says it's not a great, that's not great for a lot of people who are trying to
run businesses in the current environment.
A New York based importer and distributor of wines and spirits says the new tariffs
have made it impossible to plan ahead.
Could you imagine if I had a supplier and every time I talked to them they gave me a
different price?
This is the equivalent of that.
He is also a plaintiff in a new lawsuit, joining with several other companies, to question
Trump's authority to do this without congressional approval.
Is there an emergency?
Well, see, that's what all the nonsense about fentanyl coming from Canada was about.
He claimed that, you know, he claimed something that was not true, just like he did with COVID.
And then he pronounced that it was an emergency, even though it was a lie.
And then he said, well, now I have the power to do this and to do that.
The threats, the uncertainty have made it hard to make business decisions, said the co-president
of Wyoming Machine, a Minnesota-based sheet metal fabricator that relies on aluminum imports from
Canada. The New York Federal Reserve Bank's monthly survey of manufacturers published earlier this
week reported a sharp drop in what it calls, quote,
forward-looking indicators, that is, what businesses expect the next six months to look
like.
Even global businesses don't seem to be immune.
The CEO of the Dutch firm ASML, the world's largest producer of the equipment needed to
make semiconductors and other advanced computer chips attributed lower-than-expected sales
to America's new tariff regime."
He said that it is quote, creating a new uncertainty.
Yeah, it is kind of interesting.
You know, when we look at high tech, it's a Dutch firm that basically makes the machines
that are used by the Taiwanese to make the chips that are used by America, especially
in the high techtech military stuff.
It's all distributed all over the place. You can't just do a rug pull on all that stuff.
I mean, it's deeply intertwined and embedded. And you can do that, but it's going to rip the
heart out of the entire global economy. And it is a global economy. You know, you can start to try,
what you can do is you can get rid of the regulations and the taxes and stuff like that
here, things that when enable it.
For the longest time we've had presidents who said, in my administration I created this
many number of jobs.
And they say, no you didn't.
You got out of the way and you let people take risks and invest their money and do their
hard work.
Their blood, sweat and tears is what created those jobs.
You didn't do anything.
You just got out of the way if you did get out of the way. Or in many cases, a lot of them were
bragging about the fact that they had created jobs by shoveling a ton of money over to a
corporation. That kind of chronic capitalism, that kind of central planning is not effective.
And so they won't give freedom a chance. Freedom is how we could beat everybody else, is how we beat everybody else in the first
time.
But instead they decide they're going to take a central planning route.
The threats, the uncertainty made it hard to make business decisions.
That's exactly it.
The outlook for global trade has deteriorated sharply due to the surge in tariffs and trade
policies and the uncertainty.
During Trump's first term in office, the uncertainty created by his trade policies then reduced
aggregate U.S. investment by as much as $47 billion in 2018, according to a 2020 study
in the Journal of Monetary Economics.
And guess who took it the worst?
His big supporters in the rural areas, the farmers. He put them
on stimulus checks and universal basic, very basic income, welfare, before he did it to
everybody in 2020. All measures suggest that uncertainty about trade policy has recently
shot up to levels that have not been seen since the 1970s. Costs are almost certain to be higher this time because the size and scope of Trump's
new trade war have greatly expanded, as has the uncertainty that created.
You go back and look at the lockdown, the fear, the uncertainty, the doubt.
Fear, uncertainty, and doubt.
That's what he was doing in 2020.
It's all back.
Mr. Chaos.
It is obviously difficult to objectively measure something as
frothy and as fleeting as uncertainty, but some economists have tried. The Economic Policy Uncertainty
Index is based on newspaper reports, Congressional Budget Office reports, and surveys of economic
forecasters by the Federal Reserve. Right now, the global index is at the highest level it has ever been, surpassing even the
previous peak set by Trump with the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown, and far higher than
it was during Trump's 2018 tariff phase.
And hiring during periods of high uncertainty, households may exercise precautionary reductions in spending by increasing their savings rate in
anticipation of possible changes to income or to wealth. Our quotes are down,
our orders are down, our purchases are down." Purchase orders are down, he said,
as president of Canadian-based Cavalier Tool and Manufacturing. These are the
very types of jobs that Trump says he wants.
As Trump has targeted imports from Canada and higher tariffs, people are scrambling
and pivoting.
The reality is that almost nothing is moving.
Well, it's all worth it, isn't it?
As long as we don't have people buying stuff from China.
Except Trump does. If you go back to 2016, this article, this news report
showing Trump having China make all of his campaign stuff.
There's little evidence of a trade war at the Jiahao Flat Company in Anhui
province. Workers bustle and sewing machines hum. A current house seller, blue
and white banners declaring the centerpiece of Trump's re-election
campaign.
What I'm making here now is a Trump banner.
I know that he is the U.S. president.
Every day we must produce over 1,000 of this.
We already made so many badges of them.
The banners highlight a paradox in China-U.S. relations under the current Trump administration.
At about one dollar apiece, even the suppliers to the Trump campaign can't resist the low price.
The factory also made banners for his 2016 campaign and said its business has been great since then.
Buy American and hire American. hire from has long railed against any imports
and launch a controversial trade strategy this year to punish beijing
it is moving is merely making america more expensive
the u.s. department of commerce at lax and other textile products will be
subject to a ten percent levy
one seller said that would be enough to double the price of a Make America Great
Again hat to $20 a pop. And his hardline stance towards China could eventually repel
suppliers like the Jiahao Flight Company.
Personally, this is my own feeling, but if he continues to demand tariff increases as
he has been doing, I definitely would not be able to accept more orders. That's because everyone can have a patriotic heart. So we
won't let him improve his own economy, while us Chinese just shoot ourselves in the foot.
I know that Trump's tariffs targeting China will have some effect, but we are not worried
at all since we are producing foreign flags every single day. If Trump's midterm election rallies
have no flags to fly there's only one man to blame.
Sun Tien Yuan, CGTN. I saw that on social media and what really caught my
attention was the first comment underneath it was from somebody who was some anonymous troll who had like two dozen followers
or something and he said there's no such thing as China 24 news channel because that's the
people put that together and you see the logo down there.
So people replied to it and gave links to the website and all the rest of this.
I mean it's amazing how these trolls will
come out and just say the most, the biggest bunch of nonsense. I don't know if they're
paid to say that or they're just camp followers or whatever. A good example of this is the
article I mentioned briefly the other day, Spencer Morrison writing for Chronicles.
Says tariffs are essential to a free people So what a joke the American Revolution was
Fighting tariffs on tea. Yeah taxes did not make us great
Taxes you might say are a necessary evil, but they're not going to make our country great
There's better and there's worse ways to collect taxes, but the very worst thing that we could do
Is to have this uncertainty.
Meanwhile the border patrol, Customs and Border Patrol said the latest tariffs have generated
$500 million, well below Trump's estimate.
Yeah, so that was over two weeks.
So I mean that's like a billion dollars a month, $12 billion a year.
Yeah, we're going to balance the budget there, aren't we?
Well let's hope that it doesn't go up even higher than that.
But the economic destruction that it does is just truly astounding.
We're going to take a break and we're going to have Gerald Salenti join us with Trends
Research and get Gerald's take on it.
Right now everything is moving so fast.
We go two weeks and there's just a ton of things that have happened. So we're

You're listening to The David Knight Show.
Joining us now is Gerald Salente.
Always a pleasure to have Gerald on, and we've had so much that has happened economically,
especially in the last couple of weeks.
I wanted to get Gerald's take on it.
TrendsResearch.com is where you can find his publication.
You can see a sample of that.
It's a magnificent and thorough, very lengthy weekly journal that comes out now.
And you can save 10% off with the code NIGHT.
And I think, Gerald, what does that work out to be about for the week?
It works out to be half the price of the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times for
a day, something like that.
Good to have you on.
$2.50 to have you on.
$2.50 a week.
Yeah.
And again, the magazine's over 200 pages,
Trends Journal.
Wow, and no fluff.
You know, that's the other thing too.
You're focusing on what's really happening.
And you know, I talked about this last couple of weeks.
We now got people talking about the commercial
real estate issue because that's really surfacing.
And you know, you've been talking about that for years, way way ahead of the curve saying this is what's going to happen it's
going to affect the banks and many other things as well. And look at our forecast for gold.
Yeah. When we made it the forecast would be golden year for gold in 2024. Back then gold prices were
back then gold prices were, um, 2000, 40, I think it was $2,041 an ounce.
And today I just, what was they? I just looked, um, it's been up in the 3,300 today.
Yeah.
$3,327 an an ounce that could pay for a
lot of subscriptions for a lot of years couldn't it now this is very important
couple of days ago price of gold went up over a hundred dollars an ounce mm-hmm. One day went up like $107 an ounce. Not a word in the Wall Street Journal.
Really? That you pay five dollars a day for. Wow. Wow. Not a word last week, last
weekend when gold prices spiked with the throughout, not one word in the Wall Street Journal
that you pay six dollars a day for on the weekend edition. Not one article before we went on the air
today in the Wall Street Journal about the spiking prices of gold
or the toilet paper record, which people call the New York Times,
they call themselves the paper record.
This is yesterday's edition, this big stupid little cartoon
for little girls and boys with brains the size of a pea.
The reason they have these big cartoon pictures here
is because they don't have journalists anymore. Yeah, yeah. So they fill up the space
with stupid pictures on every page. Yeah, look, look, I'm not making this up. Yeah. You see it? Yeah. Yep. Oh yeah. It looks like USA Today.
Not a word, not a word about gold.
Wow.
The mainstream media is silencing this.
I've been at this for 45 years.
I made my name buying gold.
And when I booked Trends 2000, trend tracking, I told the story back in 1978 when the Iranian
conflict broke out and they taught us to hate the Iranians, of course, without telling us
how the United States and the MI6 overthrew the democratically elected government of Mosaddegh in 1953
because that lousy Iranian piece of scum said,
no, that oil doesn't belong to Anglo-Iranian oil,
better known today as BP, or Exxon Mobil,
excuse me, standard oil, better known today as ExxonMobil.
It belongs to the Iranian people.
No, it doesn't.
We're going to steal your oil and we're going to kill everybody that supports you.
And now we're going to bring in the Shah and the SAVAK, the secret police that made the
SS look good.
So when the revolution happened, you know, I knew this thing is real
But you just taught the people to hate the Iranians
So I did oil and gold futures put a five thousand dollar bet into each one and brought it almost up to three quarters of a
Million dollars. This is 1970s. I lost most of the money. I'm gambling away. I know I was doing it as a young guy.
But my first buy of gold was around $163, $173 an ounce. I've been following gold since then.
Wow. The revolution was not televised in Iran, right? Americans are clueless about it. They
don't talk about it in the media either. But yeah, yeah, it's amazing when you look at what has happened with gold over the last
couple of years and especially over the last two years, you know, when you talk about in 2024,
truly is amazing. We used to have commercials at the end of the Trends Journal thing, you know,
just promoting the Trends Journal and I had Eric King, King World News,
Salenti called the bottom of gold. I called the bottom of gold a couple of years ago.
This is the bottom.
I've never seen gold take off like this.
And this is the important element
to what you were listening before
about the uncertainty with Trump.
Every day he changes his mind
because he's out of his mind.
But that's another story.
The uncertainty is we are on the verge of nuclear annihilation and the
end of life on earth. And the people that are watching the geopolitical without swallowing the stupid crap that they're shoving down people's throats.
Know how bad it is.
And the worst of the worst is the disgusting, murderous,
Israel genocide slaughter of the people in Gaza.
And maybe they'll throw me out of the country for saying that.
Yeah.
How dare I'm an anti-Semite?
Shove it.
Save your anti-Semite crap
for some little gutless clown.
Because number one,
number one, the people running Israel,
they're not Semites
Semites of people for the Mesopotamia region
These are all Eastern European Jews people
Where's Netanyahu Israel name?
Milikowski
Oh, you made that name up Ben-Gurion? Oh, you made that name up, Ben-Gurion Green? These are Eastern Europeans.
They're not Semites. Number two, you're against the massive slaughter and starvation of people.
Oh, not my language, United Nations. I went on one after another, right in front of everybody's eyes, and you're
saying by definition, oh I forgot Donald Trump's little arrogant son-in-law, boy Jared Kushner.
Oh that's very quote valuable waterfront property. Yeah. And that was only a year ago.
Oh yeah, we had Trump. He wanted to turn it into the Riviera. That's right. Yeah, that was only a year ago. Oh yeah, we had Trump.
He wanted to chart it into the Riviera.
That's right.
Yeah, that was the amazing thing.
Trump coming out with that, and as I talked about earlier,
you know, they have put a, you know,
the Defense Minister of Israel has said no humanitarian aid whatsoever.
We've got children who are starving.
And they're going to starve them to death
so that Trump can, what, set up a casino there, you know
Is that the is that what they're gonna do is real estate development project?
Where is the anger of people? Oh, by the way, they had that again
You can't make this crap up, but everything's turned to crap so you can make it up. They about how
Bernie Sanders in that
Cortez thing how
They're enlightening the democratic people. Yeah, all right.
These are the two jerks that you could look to.
On Bernie Sanders, they had a big rally, these big rallies he's having.
And the people put up the flags, free Palestine, they got thrown out.
And you know what Bernie Sanders came out and said?
I hate this line.
You could shove it up here.
You know what?
Israel has the right to defend itself.
How many times have they repeated that propaganda line of crap?
Oh, Israel bombing the hell out of Syria now.
You got to stop them.
They can't come near our borders.
Oh, you're in violation of ceasefire agreement in Lebanon?
Bombing the hell out of Lebanon?
We could bomb anybody we want and shove your chosen people line up here, you know what?
Oh, I'm just a guinea from the Bronx. You're a chosen people line up here, you know what? Oh, I'm just a guinea from the Bronx. You're
a chosen people. I'm just a piece of scum. Oh no, let's listen to Naomi Wolf, a Jewish
woman. She's, that's a lot of baloney, this chosen people. God chooses people by their morality and how they live in the spirit of God has nothing
to do with a religion. Got it? Well, yeah, God chose to take them out of the land because of
immorality. He'll, and He could choose to put them back in if He wishes, but it's not, they don't,
they want the fruit of this without having the root of it, which is God.
But you mentioned earlier that criticizing,
as we've seen now, people being snatched off the street.
And there's a smear campaign that happens
in the conservative media to try to justify Trump
snatching people off the street
because they wrote an op-ed piece
or snatching them off the street
because they were exercising free speech on the college campuses.
And when I look at the obscene amounts of money that are being given to Columbia University,
$400 million, and the even more obscene amount of money, $9 billion being given to Harvard,
but they're going to keep giving them that money as long as they don't criticize a foreign
political entity.
And that's the issue here.
But it's also the issue that when people are here legally, this last guy they pulled off
– I talked about this yesterday – he was on his way to an interview for citizenship.
He'd been here for 10 years, and you don't get that interview unless you have a clean
record and so forth.
And he was here legally.
The people who are here legally have a right to speak just like Americans do. They have a right record and so forth. And he was here legally, the people who were here legally
have a right to speak just like Americans do,
they have a right to due process.
And yet when we see Trump doing this to everybody,
they immediately tar and feather them as terrorists,
as violence and all the rest of stuff and that's not true.
But what's really frightening and you alluded to it,
is the fact that Trump has said to this guy in El Salvador,
you're gonna need to build some more prisons
because we're gonna send some American citizens there.
What do you think about that?
I mean, it's amazing.
I know.
Yeah, I'll be on the list.
Yeah, I know.
Me too.
Yeah.
Well, it goes back to his Alien Enemies Act,
which he's deported these gang members with.
And I'm all for deporting the gang members,
MS-13 and the, you know,
the trendy guys, the trendy, Aragwa, whatever they call them.
I'm all for deporting those types of people, but we need to have some due process if they're
going to be sent into an extremely harsh environment there in those prisons.
It's more than just deporting somebody who's here illegally.
And the Trump administration even said that they made a mistake on it.
But now they're talking out of both sides of their mouth.
They say, well, you know, we had him on a watch list.
It's like, I began at Infowars with a story about a guy who was put on a no-fly list,
wrongfully put on a no-fly list.
He doesn't know how he got on.
They wouldn't tell him.
This is a star chamber process.
That was happening in 2012.
He was vetted by the TSA, he was vetted by the FBI,
he had a firearms license, he was flying on a military plane
to visit his wife who was in Japan working for the military,
and he gets to Hawaii, and as that intermediate flight
is about to take off again for Japan, the last leg,
some guys come on and pull him off again for Japan, the last leg, some
guys come on and pull him off and say, �You can't fly.
You're on a no-fly list.� And he's stuck in Hawaii.
He can't fly.
And he can't get any information from anybody about how he got on that.
That kind of star chamber process is not what we want to have in this country.
And the problem is that Trump is taking this Alien Enemies Act, which is part of the Alien
and Sedition Act.
He's accusing CBS and other news media of being treasonous, which is basically sedition.
And so what he's doing is he's taking the old Alien and Sedition Act, which Jefferson
and Madison hated, and he's starting to apply that in the 21st century.
And he wants to apply it to American citizens, not just to people who are here for foreign
entities, foreign citizens. No, the guy is a three months, he's in
office for three months and look at what he's done in three months. He's wrecking
ball isn't he? Yeah, he's an arrogant, arrogant, narcissistic guy. End of story.
You know, I told you, I had lunch with his brother, Robin.
Yeah.
Back in 2017.
And the brother told me that the father, when he died,
left the family over half a billion dollars
worth of real estate.
Wow. There's Abigail Disney or Walt Disney's niece or something.
She wrote an article in The Guardian, I read it, and she wrote about Trump.
Basically what a spoiled boy he is. He inherited everything. She would know. She would know about that, right?
Yeah, but she fights with some good things.
And you know, I applaud her on that end.
You know, not everything, but who does everything everybody likes, you know.
But anyway, and that's all, again, I tell the
story. I'm the same age as Trump, 78.
When I was a young, I wrote it in my Zizzi book, which by the way, of everything I've
written is my favorite, when Zizzi gave Honey Boy a Zizzi book.
I found the trailer online, Gerald, and I played that on Monday.
And I played a little bit of an interview with a guy who did the movie.
He was at a film festival and
he was talking about when he talked to you and how you were reluctant to have him do
it. It was very interesting.
And anyway, I write about how I grew up in the Bronx. Born in the Bronx. If you're not
from the Bronx, man, save it. It's a different trip. And I'm born
right after the war. Their energy is at the height. America's at the top. They couldn't
control me. They used to tell me they used to tie me to a crib with nylon stockings because
I'm out the window. I had my mother and father arrested now for doing that. Anyway, I ran
away from kindergarten. I crossed the Boston Post Road in the Bronx at four and a half years old.
I hated every day of school.
I they used to threaten me and my brothers.
We had enough of your crap.
You go in a military school.
That was the threat we used to get.
I write about the book how they took us to Botanical Gardens, which we thought was the military school, they had these big things.
And they're like, okay, get ahead of the coffee.
We'll be good, we'll be good.
Trump was so arrogant, they sent him to military school.
Now imagine being a teenager, a young kid, I'm talking about girls, cars, sports, you
know.
My mother, mwah.
Everybody loved Aunt Marie's.
She was the best cook of everybody.
I'm gonna eat this crappy food at military school,
get dressed up in military drag.
Time to get up, time to go to bed, do this, do that.
I'm not gonna, all right, I'll be good, I'll be good.
Trump was so out of his mind, so narcissistic,
they sent him to military
school, it's about 30 minutes south of me over here. What the hell's the name of the
place? Not Gardner. Cornwall. Cornwall, New York. In the middle, we're talking in the 1960s, right? Yeah.
The middle of nowhere.
That's how arrogant and narcissistic he was.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Well, you know, it's interesting.
You talked about how they're going to make sure that, you always mention how the bigs
are going to get their special treatment.
Well, you know, Trump pulled back and he said, well, I want you guys to soak the rich.
Now, you know that's not going to happen,
but that was the one time that we saw Sean Hannity come out
and really got his hackles up.
He says, it seems to go against everything
that Donald Trump has ever believed in.
It's pretty unbelievable to me, to be honest.
Finally complaining about taxes, why?
Because it's kind of, you always hear this NIMBY stuff,
you know, not in my backyard.
Well, you know, for Sean Hannity, it was like, not in my back pocket.
Yeah. I don't want to have to pay that stuff. And out of the woodwork, you got all these Republicans
out there saying, don't raise taxes, don't raise taxes, when for the last couple of weeks, they've
been telling us, no, raise taxes. It's good for us. It'll help you to grow. You know, we got Benny
Johnson saying, well, you know, this may, you may be losing money in the stock market because of Trump's
Volatility and can't indecision and all the rest of stuff. But hey, it's a growing experience
It's gonna build character to lose your money in the stock market
It's like give me a break and these people will cheer anything won't they?
Again, Sean Hannity
How could you be so dumb to swallow crap coming out of that clown's mouth?
Yeah, and what look at the money that he's worth. Oh, yeah. Look what they pay these
That's right. And again, you were talking about that guy when you were on info wars and you know what the TSA did to them
Yeah, it's like that from from your city local government all the way up to the top.
The power that these people in bureaucrats have taken, the laws, the restrictions they
put on you, it is disgusting.
I talked this week about a case in Hawaii, I think it was on Reason, and this guy bought
a house and he had a permit for it.
They were in the middle of doing a remodeling.
And the local bureaucrats changed their accounting system, their tracking system, they computerized
it.
And they said, well, you're going to have a certain amount of time, like a month or
two, to re-up your permits, and if you don'tt, they�re going to expire.� Well, he didn�t know
that. And so they started giving him grief, and he said, �Well, wait a minute. I had
this and we checked this all before I bought the house.� And so then finally they come
back and go, �Oh, no, you didn�t get the final inspection when this house was built
47 years ago.� It�s like, �What are you talking about?� And so they put him through
all this grief. They�re going to tear down his house and everything. He wins in court after a long fight.
They're still coming after him because these people are going to continue to come after
him.
They're going to find one thing or the other after him.
They're never going to leave him alone, especially because he beat them in court.
That's what I'm saying is everywhere.
It's not only at the federal government.
This country's gone down to crap
It's finished
It's done. Look at the people the way they dress
As I said the Ringling member we were young guys. They had the Ringling brothers and Barnum and Bailey circus
It went out of business
You don't have to step right up, step right up. See the fat man.
See the tattooed lady. See the lady with the beard. You don't have to step right up.
They're out in the street all over the place. I gotta tell you, Gerald, when I was in college,
I was in bands, right? I played bands and we had a New Year's Eve gig with the retired circus freaks
home in Sarasota, okay? It was one of the strangest things ever.
We played their New Year's Eve party and I'll never forget that.
They wanted waltzes from us.
We were not a waltz band, but we put together trombone – I was playing keyboards and so
we put together the Blue Daniel Waltz and that was when we got everybody to dance.
It was really – that was so strange. You talk about circus freaks. I can't stop but think about
Ringling Brothers there in Sarasota. Yeah.
I mean it's so sad. Now it's everywhere, yeah.
The way the people dress. Yeah.
I've grown men wearing baseball caps. Grow the hell up. What do you look like a Joe?
Oh and the chicks look so hot with their baseball caps with the hat with a hair coming out
the back. Women I have pictures of my aunts and how gorgeous they dressed. How
dignified the people were. Oh yeah. The whole country's gone down. Yeah. It's the end of it.
Without a Renaissance to me it's all over. Facts
don't mean anything. The Renaissance
followed the black plague. They killed
people were killing themselves the
filthy sanitation. But you can't do it
without the dough. The Medici's made it
happen. We need a Renaissance. We have to
again, you're a musician. Look what the
geeks did to music. Oh yeah. Yeah. And look what the geeks did to music. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I know.
Yeah.
And look what the geeks look like. You want to look like a sucker boy?
No, I want to look like a peach eye. How about a cook?
Look at these dead in-your-face
arrogant pieces of crap.
The geeks, as I said, they got it wrong in the King's James Bible
They say the meek shall inherit the earth the geeks have inherited the earth
Yeah, they brought down the level of this country to the low level of who they are. Hey, is it?
Artificial intelligence so much better than natural intelligence?
Why do you need artificial flavors, artificial colors, artificial intelligence? All right.
Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah, it's about surveillance and control, I think, is really what that's
ultimately about. Of course, there's going to be a lot of money in that. I was talking earlier about how we've got, which is, they just, Wall Street Journal
as well as, it was Forbes that started it, they looked at the claims are being made
by the guy that runs figure robots and and they're basically a lot of BS. We
have so much hype in all this stuff and you talked about a dot-com 2.0 basically a lot of BS. We have so much hype in all this stuff.
And you talked about a dot com 2.0.
And a lot of this stuff has been hyped to the extreme.
He was saying that he had robots in the BMW automobile factory in South Carolina that
were working throughout the process.
And it turns out that he's only got two or three that they're using to sort a couple
of different packages that are there. You know, that's all that they're using to sort a couple of different packages that are there,
you know, that's all that they're doing.
And so he was about to get an amount of money that would give him more capital than Ford
Motor Company.
And so it's a tremendous amount of hype that they put, expectations that they put.
And a lot of this stuff, like, you know, some of these EV companies was based on hype and
even fraud in terms of where they were
going.
What do you think is going to happen to the stock market now?
We've had a lot of uncertainty because of this tariff thing.
We've also got issues with the tech companies being overbought, as you've talked about,
dotcom bust 2.0 with artificial intelligence.
What do you see happening with the economy and with gold?
Has gold maxed out or is it going to keep running as long as there is this kind of uncertainty and
chaos? It's going to keep running as long as there's this uncertainty and chaos. And before I was
talking about nuclear annihilation, when Trump started talking about having a negotiation with Iran. We said, we wrote in the Trends Journal, this is a fraud.
They have absolutely no intention of making peace with Iran.
I began the conversation about talking about Iran,
and they taught us to hate it all our lives.
Yeah.
And everybody get this in your head.
These are the Persians, the very advanced people, and particularly scientifically, technologically
and militarily. These are not dumb people. They've been around a long time. Very advanced
in a lot of ways. There's a country of 91 million people. 91 million versus 7 million Jewish people in Israel, who's gonna win?
They'll flatten, flatten, blow out Israel to nothing in a blink of an eye.
Now Trump is making this deal with this guy, Whitgoff, I can't say there's a jerk off,
Whitgoff, whatever, you know. A real estate guy.
A real estate guy. Of course you would make him your ambassador. It's all about
real estate, isn't it? And again another Zionist doing the deal and then he comes
out and says, well we're not going to pressure Iran to get rid of all their nuclear reduction. And then he did it 180
like that. Why isn't Iran allowed to have nuclear power plants or nuclear
development? That's right. But Israel's allowed to have nuclear bombs. That's
right. I forgot they're the chosen people. How stupid of me.
Gard and Goldsmith said, yeah, they're intentionally blurring the, muddying the water, blurring the lines by just talking about nuclear sites.
And everybody goes, oh, well, it's nuclear bomb sites. It's nuclear energy sites.
I guess they're not allowed to do that. We're going to change everything over to nuclear energy and it's going to be run by our technocrats over here, but
they're not allowed to have nuclear energy there, right?
No. Then going back to Trump, he's the one that killed the deal when there was the
nuclear agreement that was signed under Obama. And they had the nuclear
inspectors going to the Iranian plants continually, showing that they were not making nuclear bombs and
Trump killed that deal what back in 2018 mm-hmm Trump is totally pro-zionist oh so
is Joe Biden he called himself a Zionist and Zionism has nothing to do with
religion it's a political movement right right, there's anti-Zionist
Jews just like there's a lot of anti-Zionist Christians and I was talking about that earlier
as well. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, the rabbis hate the lot of rabbis can't stand the Zionists. It's
a made-up thing. Yeah. What's that guy? What's it? Theodore, Theodore Herzl mm-hmm yeah 1890s a guy from like Austria
Hungary somebody made up this whole thing invented and then the Rothschilds
and all the other ones supported gave him all the money as I said you can't do
anything without money look at a pack runs the country yeah when it comes to
elections look at the money they give.
That's right.
And now that deadhead, Stephanie, whatever her name is,
she's going to be running for governor of New York. Oh, great.
We've got one more run to put another.
It's a freak show. Yeah.
Look at the freaks running the show. It's in front of everybody's eyes.
Yeah. As I said, the Ringling Brothers in Bonham and Bailey Circus
went out of business
because you don't have to step right up and see the freaks. Oh, you like little Mikey
Johnson? Look at that little nothing of a clown boy. Yeah. Oh yeah. Yeah. So going back
to Iran, Israel's going to ramp up this war. They just came out with this BS line that Trump stopped Netanyahu
from bombing Iran. Did you see that a couple of days ago?
Yeah, I saw that. Are you buying that line?
No, it's total baloney.
They tell him what to do. They tell him what to do.
Total baloney. But even though to say that, that they're thinking of bombing Iran, I'm
telling you that's why gold prices are going up like this.
And don't forget, hey, you elect me, I'm going to end that Ukraine war in 24 hours after
I get into office.
Okay?
Yeah.
He stopped talking about that, hasn't he?
24 hours.
And how can you get away with this crap? Yeah, he stopped talking about that, hasn't he? 24 hours.
How can you get away with this crap?
Yeah.
I make him call something wrong.
Oh my God, Solente called it wrong.
I'm a human being.
I can't get everything right all the time.
Right.
All right.
But look at my track record.
But I'm not lying to you in front of your eyes.
Yeah, that's right. And I want you to remember this. Look at my track record, but I'm not lying to you in front of your eyes
Yeah, that's right. And I want you remember this now that I'm elected that Ukraine was gonna end before I get into office
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm a fat mouth
Going on
Now that's right, So here's the deal. Europe writing about it in the trends,
journals pumping more and more money into the Ukraine war.
Kyle Hitler's back in Germany with this guy Mertz,
building up the military and in warning his government,
a former Black Rock guy.
Black Rock.
Yeah.
We got to watch those Russians, they're going to try to invade Europe.
They're selling the domino theory that they sold during the Vietnam War.
And if we don't stop those Russians, this is coming out of the mouth of the Germans.
They're building their defense budget,
what, a trillion dollars? Oh, we're gonna put money into infrastructure too.
Wait a minute, you're in recession for two years. You're going into your third
year recession, third largest economy in the world and the largest in Europe, and
now you're going into a trillion dollars worth of debt to build up your defense?
That's right, we got to stop them Russians. Hey, wait a minute. You killed over 25 million
in World War II, Operation Barbarossa, and you're talking about you have to stop the Russians?
and you're talking about you have to stop the russians world war three has begun
there's going to be a false flag event or something that makes it official
this is why gold prices are going up
that plus
look at two of our top trends
again i'm at this forty five years
never did we come out with a top trend wild card
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm because of the trump card
Nothing like this in my lifetime
Yeah, that's right. That's right. Totally unpredictable what he's gonna do from one hour to the next, you know
It means you look at this tariff stuff, I was just talking about that.
Changing his position within 24 hours.
He got two different takes on this stuff.
But when you go back and you look at the rearmament
of Europe, it seems to me like this is,
I think these guys are selected.
I think they intentionally put Trump in
and then took him out and put Biden in
and then put him back in again.
And I think he's there as an agent of chaos. put Trump in and then took him out and put Biden in and then put him back in again.
And I think he's there as an agent of chaos and I think he's there to push into this world
war.
He was a hero to a lot of people who were saying, well, look, he's complaining about
Europe not carrying their weight in NATO.
And so we might just get out of NATO.
Well, he had no intention of getting out of NATO.
I think what he was just doing was just to tell them that they've got to spend more money.
And that's a constant recurring theme now in his second term.
You've got to rearm.
And as we look at Volkswagen and these other car companies that can't compete with China
on EVs, and they can't economically really manufacture anything because they've put restrictions
on their energy usage, now they're moving into, you know,
Volkswagen and these other companies are now moving into making military equipment.
So it is a huge rearmament and it's a huge repositioning.
This is something that's been sold by Trump all the way through.
Again, think of the stupidity of this.
You're building bombs, rockets, planes, ships, whatever.
This is World War III.
Grow up.
Why don't you use bow and arrows, all right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's going to be new millennium warfare.
All this crap you're doing is totally worthless junk.
It's going to be nuclear annihilation in a
blink of an eye.
Yeah. But meanwhile, they're putting in a trillion dollars, hit a trillion dollars on
the defense budget for the first time. And you don't see any of, you don't see Elon Musk,
who is a military industrial contractor himself, you don't see him looking at the Pentagon
spending for efficiency or waste at all, do you?
No.
Yeah.
And look at the little clown boy that's our secretary of defense.
A little arrogant nothing of a jerk.
One after another.
One after another.
Could you get dumber, stupider, loser than Marco Rubio?
That's right. A little nothing of a boy. It's a freak
show. Step right up, step right up. In a country near you, I little Katz and
McCrone over there. A little nothing of a boy if he is at all.
Starmer over there in the UK and who was before him, the best cartoonist in the world could
not have come up with a freakier looking clown figure than Boris Johnson.
He really leaned into that cartoon look, didn't he?
I always called him Bojo, you know, Boris Johnson, Bojo the Clown.
Again, it's one jerk after another running a country near you.
Yeah, I agree.
What about what is happening in the last 24 hours?
We had Powell come out and say that he's going to, and say that he's not going to pay any attention
to Trump.
He got a lot of applause when he said that.
As he was speaking to the group, he says, I'm not going to bow to any political pressure
from Trump.
He got a lot of applause.
Will that set Trump off?
And he said, he's playing politics, and if I tell him to leave, leave he's gonna leave. What do you think is gonna happen and what's the
impact you know Trump certainly with all of the uncertainty is wrecking the
markets and we've talked about whether or not you know what the Federal Reserve
is gonna do because they can wreck things or you know create inflation with
their quantitative easing or interest rates or whatever. So what do you think is
going to play out with this competition between Powell and Trump?
What do you think they're going to, what do you think the Fed's going to do?
We're writing about it in the Trends Journal now since Trump got, before Trump got elected.
We said that he's going to do everything he can to lower interest rates and juice up the economy if there's any kind of
danger of it going down or the markets going down. And we said he's done it
before and he'll do it again. Let's go back to December 2018. The The Dow had its worst December since the Great Depression, 1931.
What did Trump do?
He pushed Powell to lower interest rates, which Powell did in January 2019, and it juiced
the markets.
Oh, remember the repo crisis?
Oh, forget about that. Yeah. Powell is nothing more than
a little nothing of a boy. As George Carlin said, it's one big club and you ain't in it.
Who was the Fed head that became the treasury secretary? Janet Yellen. Yeah. Remember her? Yeah. Yeah.
Did mushrooms in China.
It couldn't stop bowing.
Yeah.
As we say, Ms.
Fatshah Brute.
The, a clown that was the fed head becomes the treasury secretary.
All right.
It's the same club.
Powell do what he's told to do. He's a
gutless little nothing of a boy. And Trump will lower interest rates for
another reason. In selling his tariff deal, they want to devalue the
dollar so that American products are cheaper to buy.
Just like China did.
We said China was going to do it.
And before you talked about Volkswagen and these other companies whose car
sales are going way down, these are the, this is the Volkswagen, the BMWs,
These are the Volkswagen, the BMWs, the Chevrolet, the Fords, the General Motors that had great, great years in China when Bill Clinton brought China into the World Trade Organization.
And all these Western companies wanted cheap labor.
They went over to China and gave China all the high tech and heavy industry technology
they never had.
And now 25 years later, they got it all.
And you got to put this stuff into perspective as trend forecasters.
You make connections between different fields. All things are connected,
like the blood which unites us all said Chief Seattle, but I think he was wrong with that,
because we're not connected at all. But anyway, go back to 2000. Ten percent of Chinese 18-year-olds went to college.
Now, nearly 70%.
This is a country of 1.4 billion people.
They're very smart.
America's dumbing down in front of your eyes.
Oh, yeah.
We've got 347 million, 345 million.
345 million against $1.4 billion, that are very advanced technologically, high-tech and
heavy industry.
Goes back to AI.
There's going to be a dot-com bust because of all the over-investment in the first AI
companies that came out.
Trends are born, they grow, they mature, reach old age and die. The AI trend was only born in 2022. And everybody invested in these IPOs and these
IPO wannabes and the new tech. Oh no, we don't need these big chips. No, it doesn't cost
us $100 million, it only cost us $6 million to do what you did with the chat we could we could outdo you yeah there's just a
beginning they're gonna outdo Germany was one of at the height of engineering
and advancement for decades no more because of the bureaucracy mm-hmm I can't stand
going back to Italy because of the bureaucracy it's one of the worst in the
world I got friends that live there they complain all the time the bureaucracy is
going back to what you said about that guy that got the TSA, what they did to him. Yeah, yeah. It's going on all throughout the Western world.
Well, let me ask you, when we go back to interest rates
and Powell and all the rest of stuff, and as you point out,
we know that Trump wants to get the interest rates lowered,
helps him with the interest on the debt, which
is getting very significant.
And yet, when you look at people's interest on the debt, which is getting very significant.
And yet, when you look at people's trust in the dollar, when we saw him reverse very quickly
as the stock market was crashing for two days in a row, that first day when it was crashing,
he came out and essentially alluded to the fact that it was bonds.
Other people said that it was Japan that was dumping the bonds.
If he lowers interest rates, if he devalues the dollar, that makes it harder for him to sell bonds. So what's the follow-up
with that?
I've suggested that perhaps this whole stablecoin stuff is an opportunity for them to get the
stablecoin to buy their bonds when other countries don't want to buy it and other investors don't
want to buy it. And then if they can move it over to that, that also gives them all the functionality
of CBDC or digital currency.
What do you think about that?
I think you're 100% right.
And by the way, I will go back to that, but also the deeper the dollar fall, again, you
go back to your Trends Journal, the death of the dollar.
We've been saying this is going to happen. The world has had enough of America's economic and geopolitical hegemony. They had
it. Going back, the lower the dollar goes, the higher gold prices spike. Gold is dollar-based.
So now it becomes cheaper for other countries to buy gold because
their currencies have gone up. So going back to what you said about CBT, absolutely, they'll
invent one, the Trump team will capitalize on it. And we're doing away with the dollar,
we're coming out with a new currency a digital currency
We'll know every penny is spent what you spent it on we get all our tax money from you
And my family's very heavily invested in this coin that coin this thing that thing and we're gonna make more billions of dollars
Yeah, I agree. They're gonna definitely go CBDC. There's no question. The is going to go into it. China's already there.
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, and Europe is not even making any bones about it. They're still calling it a
CBDC. I think what will happen here is that Trump will have to do it, you know, people around Trump
will do it stealthily. They'll also do it in a way in which they make money, I think, as well.
That's what I'm saying. Yeah, personally, they make money, I think, as well. That's what I'm saying. Yeah. Yeah, personally, they make money.
Look, again, don't you think that his family knew when he said what he was going to do
and his friends to pump the market up before the market skyrocketed?
Oh, yeah, absolutely.
Don't you think his friends or anybody knew, hey, listen, you might want to buy the market
tomorrow because—
He even said that.
He even said that.
Now's a good want to buy the market tomorrow because— You even said that.
Even said that.
Now's a good time to buy.
You know, I said, okay, even if that wasn't—knowing Trump, I think that was a signal to sell.
But even if he wasn't intentionally trying to send a signal to people, when he takes
all of this power to himself, to be able to put the tariffs on, take the tariffs off,
set the rates, arbitral, this and that, that leaves him open even if he was trying to honestly
do that. Accruing all that power to himself puts him in that position where, of course,
they're going to investigate him, his political enemies are going to investigate him for rigging
the markets. It's just a given with him taking all of that power.
He'll do whatever he wants. And again, get the reality is we're talking this guy's been there for only three months
It's gonna be a long time isn't it? Oh my god, are you kidding?
And he again this guy's power hungry as could be. Yeah
Yeah, and so this is I'm telling you that's why I, I would not have thought
gold prices would have spiked the way they have.
Mm hmm. Mm hmm. But when you look at it, if he's able to lower the rates, you know, putting
pressure on Powell and Powell wants to, you know, not, not, not fight him, uh, or if they
devalue the dollar or whatever, all of that stuff is going to help gold every bit of it yeah it's gonna really shoot it through the
roof yeah I've got a lot of people have been saying they think this is gold is
getting ready to go hyperbolic yeah it may well it may well and you can easily
see $3,500 an ounce gold and again. Oh, it's not that far now.
Yeah.
Yeah. We remember, oh, you remember the BS line?
We're going to go into Fort Knox.
Yeah.
Let's stop talking about that.
Didn't they?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Don't draw any more attention to gold.
I guess.
They know what's in there.
Yeah.
Right.
And we wouldn't know anyway, if they went in there, I mean, it'd
be like Al Capone's vault, right?
If, if they walked in and there was nothing there, they'd come up with an explanation. If they walk
in and we see some gold stuff, we don't know if it was painted or not. I mean gold, there
was a picture I saw, Cheryl, of how Trump has changed the Oval Office, you know, where
he has all these press conferences and everything. And he's got his gold guy that makes everything gold in Mar-a-Lago.
King Midas came in and so you got, he's painting everything with gold leaf all through the
Oval Office and everything.
I mean he loves gold.
He talks about where he's going to have a golden age.
Well I guess maybe that was the tip that you should buy gold.
I don't know.
But he loves gold everywhere, doesn't he?
Except we see it in Fort Knox.
We wouldn't know if that was his gold guy
that just went in there and painted some bricks.
How would we know the difference with it, right?
You know, before we went on the air,
you said, hey, how you doing?
I said, I'm doing all right.
I have to tell you, you know,
the magazine comes out every Tuesday.
This past Tuesday, I was so depressed.
I gotta write about this and read about this stuff every day
Yeah, the massacre going on
in Sudan in
in in
Gaza
the death of people
The slaughter of people starvation of people you mentioned that clown cats
the defense guy in Israel.
What did he say? He's going to cut off all humanitarian aid? That's right. Yeah.
Could you imagine, let's reverse this. Let's suppose his name wasn't Katz and we'll make
up some Arab name for him. Mohammed Because these were Jewish people in Gaza.
Suppose these were Jewish people in Gaza that were being,
and they're not Palestinians.
The outrage that would be there,
they would call this Holocaust 2.0.
But they're only Palestinians, their lives don't matter. Yeah. I'm heartbroken. I am so
heartbroken to see this. And again, you know, I launched Occupy Peace well over a decade ago.
I so it's not and now we're going into a Good Friday. Where are all these religions that believe in the Prince of Peace?
You're right.
Yeah, well Zionism is really taking over Christianity here in America.
It truly is.
And it's not Christian at all.
And I talked about that the first part of the program.
And you know, when I look at this, I absolutely feel the same way you
do. People say to me, you know, the news is just too dark and too depressing and everything.
And it is depressing even more so when you and I look into it all the time and as much
of it as we see. It's even more depressing than what I cover on the show here. And yet
the only thing that I have, I have a hope that is outside of this life, and that's the key thing for me. And I really couldn't do this if I didn't
have the hope of Christ. And I know that this stuff that is happening now, it has, we're
in a period of time where there's a battle that's going on, and I just see it as being
a part of that battle. And I know what is going to happen after I die.
I know this life is very short.
But I am absolutely confident.
That's what hope is.
That word is confident expectation.
That's what I have, confident expectation
of what's going to happen.
I just know that I'm in the fight.
I look at the disease and the suffering in this fallen world and I know that it's not
in my power to change it, but that there is a purpose ultimately that is going to be made
out of this in this time of struggle.
And we're just here to try to show people what is happening.
We don't know if we're talking to people who have ears to hear and eyes to see or not.
But we're called to just tell people what we see.
That's what you're trying to do with this, I think, and it certainly is what I'm trying
to do.
Well, you see, I believe that we can change it.
I mean, was Trump better than you and me?
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, I think we need to warn people,
you know, whether we can change it or not.
We need to warn people about it, yeah.
Yeah, but again, you know, like, this is the other thing.
I'm hearing from people, I can't either say,
I'm so depressed with this, I'm tuning out.
Oh, great, tune out.
Yeah, great, let Hitler take over.
Yeah. Don't do anything. Don't do anything.
Don't do a damn thing. You can't do anything. That's who you believe. Fine. Everybody else
could do it. Oh, we talked about the Zuckerbergs, the Musks, the the peach eyes, the cook. Oh,
they could do a thing. You can't do things, you can't.
You're powerless.
Everybody out there, you're powerless.
That's what they put into the people's heads
because they use these words, celebrities.
Let's celebrities, what the hell are you talking to?
Celebrities, oh officials, dignitaries.
celebrities, officials, dignitaries. That's bullshit crap words, excuse the language, BS crap words about putting people at a higher level than anybody else and that we're supposed
to follow them. We're still in kindergarten. I agree. Yeah. Yeah. We have, you know, I've talked to people, we went into the pharmacist
and I've told the story on air. My son who was injured with antibiotics and we were talking
to the people there at the pharmacy because they were asking us why we're buying some
of the stuff that we're buying. And she said, Oh wow. I said, yeah, it's on the warning
label, but they don't give you the black box warning label. But she said, Oh, that stuff
on the label, this is a person at the pharmacy. The labels are so scary. I they don't give you the black box warning label. But she said, oh, that's stuff on the label. This is a person at the pharmacy.
The labels are so scary, I just don't read them anymore.
And I thought, wow, you know, that's the way people are with news as well.
The news is so scary, I just don't want to know.
I want everything to be nice and happy.
I want to pretend that this stuff doesn't exist.
Well, you can pretend that it doesn't exist, but that's not going to make it go away.
It's only going to get worse, isn't it? Again, it's Easter time and I consider myself a warrior for the Prince of Peace.
And when I say warrior, I mean it because this is one of the covers of the Trends Journal back in
2011. Yeah, yeah. The Prince of Peace made a whip to drive the money changes out of the temple.
Yeah, that's right.
Right?
Right, right.
The same money changes that are running the world today.
So as I said, where are all the religions that believe in Christ, and how come they're not out there saying stop
this slaughter of human beings and bring peace on earth?
I mean it's because they're being run by people like Paula White and Hagee and these big name
preachers out there who are friends of…
I have friends that go to the Catholic Church over here that were totally pro-Ukrainian
war.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, for many of the
people who are pushing this stuff, it's a love of money. Yeah, that's what I said. For many of the
people who are pushing this, it's their love of money, right? They don't want, they want to be a
part of the system just like you're talking about. They want to be a part of the club. They can make
a lot of money if they are pushing Ukraine war, they're pushing the Israel war. And so they push it to their people
and other people are being led by them, you know, and they're being led by people who are at the
root of all evil. Money's not evil, it's the love of the money, and that's what's turning these people,
I think. Well, again, you look at the people listening to your show and mine, there are enough
people that have had enough of this. And we united under a banner a real peace banner of
Reality we could change this the people look if Trump wasn't there. Let's pretend he's not there
Nobody would want to vote for the Democratic for the Republicans. There's nobody there that that's a standout, right?
And again, they're pumping up this Cortez and Bernie Sanders on the Democratic party.
You kidding me?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Are you kidding?
Look at the little jerk show over here.
There are a load of people that are ready for a new way.
I agree.
And that's what I'm fighting for.
I'm fighting for peace and a new way to bring back
the true American spirit that I grew up with
that made me the man that I am
and the family I'm blessed to come from
that really gave it to me.
And that's how I grew up.
You be who you wanna be.
Don't you tell me who to be or tell me what to do.
I agree.
That's the life that I live.
Matter of fact, my father, may he rest in peace, I get in a fight with him.
He said to me, you little SOB, you think I'm telling you what I'm telling you because
I want you to be like me?
I want you to become yourself.
Yeah.
That's right.
Well, again, it's always great to have you on Gerald and if you use the code NIGHT, folks,
you can get Trends journal 10% off and it
is filled with the wealth of information.
It's truly amazing as you pointed out Gerald that wall street journal doesn't even talk
about what's going on with gold.
How could they miss that?
I guess the, you know, there's, there's, they can hype the vaccines, but they don't want
to tell you about gold.
Thank you so much for joining us.
Have a great weekend.
Thank you, Gerald.
And thank you everybody. Have a great weekend. Thank you, Gerald. And thank you, everybody. Have a great weekend.
The Common Man.
They created Common Core to dumb down our children. They created Common Pass to track and control us.
Their Commons Project to make sure the commoners own nothing
and the communist future.
They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary.
But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God.
That is what we have in common.
That is what they want to take away.
Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation.
They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us.
It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide.
