Episode Date: May 23, 202500;02;30;09 - 00;03;41;11America’s Debt Crisis: U.S. credit rating downgraded by Moody’s, S&P, and Fitch, signaling a loss of confidence in America’s fiscal stability. National debt nears $3...0 trillion, reflecting a chronic debt addiction rooted in decades of fiscal mismanagement.00;09;32;08 - 00;10;57;12Trump’s "Big Beautiful Bill": Narrowly passed in the House (215-214), the bill includes tax cuts, no tax on tips/overtime, and border security funding. Critics warn it balloons deficits, lacking fiscal discipline, and mixes popular measures with controversial spending.00;34;20;19 - 00;36;48;05Scott Adams’ Cancer Diagnosis: Dilbert creator Scott Adams announces stage 4 prostate cancer and plans assisted suicide.

Lewis Institute): Questions why prayer matters if God is omniscient and omnipotent. Biblical passages (e.g., Matthew 7:7) and John Calvin emphasize prayer as essential for receiving God’s promises and invoking providence.

Dershowitz’s shifting stance and evidence from former associates highlight Epstein’s role in a potential intelligence honeypot operation.02;00;58;27 - 02;07;39;11Game B’s Origins and Influence: Conceived in 2011 by Jim Rutt and Jordan Hall, Game B promotes a trans-political alternative to the two-party system, linked to the Intellectual Dark Web. Figures like Brett Weinstein pushed the Emancipation Party, but critics see it as an influence operation steering toward a technological singularity.02;22;38;03 - 02;29;44;06Technocratic Dystopia and Ideological Manipulation: Game B’s “sense-making” risks brainwashing, while Dark Enlightenment embraces technocracy.

As the clock strikes 13, it is Friday, the 23rd of May, year of our Lord 2025.
And today we're going to look at America spending its way to a big, beautiful bankruptcy.
And how the tariffs are impacting the American worker.
In the third hour, I'm going to be speaking with Courtney Turner.

Hope you've had a good week and I hope you have some nice plans for this weekend.
As I said, I think today we're going to start with America and how it is spending its way
into a big big beautiful bankruptcy. So I have this pad here now and I'm still learning how to use it.
So today we're going to be seeing how this works for me.
We're going to start with this article.
America's credit is falling and the government is digging deeper into debt.
U.S. cannot borrow its way to prosperity.
Yeah, that is a good that is a truism. And you
would think it should be obvious, but a lot of people don't seem to understand that this is by
Veronica Veronica Darugi. Not sure how you pronounce that. But you know, it's an interesting
name. America's debt addicted government just lost its its AAA credit rating from moody's as it previously had from fellow rating agencies
S&P and Fitch many in Washington shrugged the move off as minor or as unfair treatment of Trump's administration
The truth is more sobering a flashing red signal at the United States is no longer seen as a perfect
Credit risk and that politicians should stop pretending
Yes credit risk and that politicians should stop pretending. Yes, America for the longest time, basically since the end of World War II, has been the
premier world superpower, the premier economic power, and there has been no reason for these
other countries to not view it as a completely safe place to invest in.
But now they're looking at it and saying, I don't know about that.
I'm not sure.
So the world is changing folks,
and America is at the heart of it for better or worse.
The mess is real, and it's because
habitual deficit financing, the very disease,
fiscally minded founding father, Alexander Hamilton,
warned against has become business as usual
So good old Alexander Hamilton
I'm going to actually move over here, but it is a sign of the times
Everything is continually in
flux nowadays.
The credit rating is just a symptom of it.
It is the powers that be acknowledging things.
Starting with Hamilton, American politicians long understood the importance of fiscal policy guided by the ethos of balanced budgets, low
taxes and steady debt reduction.
Their vision combined with a deep respect for contractual repayment and financial responsibility
made America a creditor nation.
That's right, we were able to finance things.
We are still financing things, we're just not really able to do it anymore.
Washington abandoned that honorable legacy in recent decades.
US national debt held by the public is racing toward 30 trillion dollars.
You can't even really comprehend that amount of money.
That's how they continue to get away with this sort of thing.
It boggles the mind.
The, I mean, personally, how can you comprehend that much?
You have no frame of reference.
Nothing in your life even comes close to that level of
money. It's it is truly impossible to comprehend and conceptualize it. How can you?
And the cost of servicing it is ballooning. Interest payments are now one of the fastest
growing parts of the budget. One trillion in 2026 crowding out core priorities and leaving us
vulnerable to economic shocks. The Congressional Budget Office warns that even modest interest one trillion in twenty twenty six crowding out core priorities and leaving us vulnerable
to economic shocks. The Congressional Budget Office warns that even modest interest rate
increases could lead to hundreds of billions of dollars in added annual costs. It's not
a rhetorical problem. It's a real compounding threat. Yes. As we've covered on the show
this past week, it is a house of cards. People are just waiting to see what's going to bring it down.
It is not a matter of if it is a matter of when people have been playing this game for
too long, which brings us back to the downgrade.
Historically downgrades like those from S and P in 2011 or Fitch in 2023 haven't caused
immediate crises, but they do raise borrowing costs and
gradually erode investor confidence. The downgrades are not the problem, but symptoms of a deeper
illness, lack of credible fiscal discipline. Market participants aren't worried because Moody
wrote a negative report. They're worried because that Moody, what Moody wrote is true. That's right.
People know that the debt is impossible to pay back It is not a feasible amount for any country to look at and say yeah, I can afford that
I can pay that back but people haven't called America on it because we've been so deeply intertwined with everything it has been
structurally impossible since we were so
integral to the
world stage.
But as America's star wanes,
people are realizing that,
well, eventually someone is going to pull one of the cards out
and everything is going to collapse.
If our political class continues to ignore warnings,
the market will do what rating agencies only hint at,
impose real discipline through higher borrowing costs,
weaker currency demand and tighter credit conditions.
Already China and other countries have reduced holdings of US treasuries from
42% in 2019 to 30% today. That's right. They are getting out of this market.
They are saying, we don't want this anymore.
And as soon as they are fully removed, if they are ever able to do that,
or once they have managed to get their position to a more manageable place,
they are more freely able to pull on that house of cards.
Meanwhile, the tax plan so far embodies Washington's worst habits.
It makes only temporary, the most important pro-growth provisions of the 2017
tax cuts like full expensing for equipment and research and development,
while rendering permanent a raft of unrelated policies, catering to favored industries and constituencies.
That's not tax reform, it's pork barrel politics dressed up as populist economics.
While Washington loves its pork, despite the fact that we are so heavily in bed with Israel,
very very strange, isn't it?
Worse still, the bill's Republican supporters in the House justify it with the fantastical claim that it's fiscally responsible based on the notion that it will
raise trillions in growth-generated revenue. Even the most optimistic models show the current
bill barely moving the growth needle. The administration claims growth will be enormous
once it deregulates and sells off assets, but these distinct policies take a long time
to bear fruit.
That's right, things move slowly in the world of the economy.
Generally, if things are moving fast, it's usually a bad sign.
That's a comment from Dad.
Trump desperately needs to lower interest rates, yet everything he does is actually
causing the markets to raise interest rates.
That's why the federal always rates home mortgages mid and ready to go up.
It passes this massive big beautiful debt bill and ratings will go down, which will
cause the rates to go up.
Yeah.
Trump doing the wrong thing, folks.
Who would have foreseen that?
Who could have guessed he would do the wrong thing?
It's a shocker to me.
We're going to move on to this article on zero hedge.
After House victory, Trump tells Senate get to work on big, beautiful bill.
That's right. Trump is once more bullying people into supporting his bill.
This is updated at eight 30.
President Trump has finally weighed in with a lengthy truth social post after his big beautiful bill narrowly cleared the
house in a last minute 215 to 214 vote. It just squeaked by the one big
beautiful bill has passed the House of Representatives. This is arguably the
most significant piece of legislation that will ever be signed in the history
of our country. He's very humble. He's the humblest. The bill includes massive tax cuts, no tax on tips,
no tax on overtime, tax deductions when you purchase an American-made vehicle, along with
strong border security measures, pay raises for ICE and Border Patrol agents, funding for the Golden
Dome, Trump saving accounts for newborn babies, and much more. Great job by Speaker Mike Johnson
and the House leadership. And thank you to every Republican who voted yes on this historic bill.
Now it's time for our friends in the United States Senate to get to work and send this
bill to my desk as soon as possible."
He writes, as soon as possible in all caps.
There is no time to waste.
The Democrats have lost control of themselves and are aimlessly wandering around, showing
no confidence, grit, or determination.
They have forgotten their landslide loss in the presidential election and are
warped in the past, hoping someday to revive open borders for the world's
criminals to be able to pour into our country.
Men to be able to play in women's sports and transgender everybody.
They don't realize that these things and so many more like them
will never again happen.
Well, I would like to believe that's true.
I would love to believe that's true, but sadly
Trump's insanity and his inability to control himself as well as the way he bullies and swaggers around when he's in power
makes it all the more likely that this will just be an even harsher swing on the pendulum once
the left is back in power. The left doesn't really care about what's popular or what the majority of people want
Once they have power they are more than willing to utilize it to force their agenda down everyone's throats and manufacture
Consensus through the media and online forums. They do not need you to approve of what they do
They just need you to not be able to resist without severe consequence. That's how the left operates
They are more than willing to engage in bullying and totalitarian behavior as soon as they are in power
Plus I mean it's ridiculous the way he's phrasing this as though it's some huge win for the right
Like this is a massive debt spending bill. It's what the left loves
They've lost their grit to increase the deficit.
I mean, sure, it's increasing the salary of border patrol
as though that's going to stop immigration.
It's back to what we were talking about yesterday
and that increasing the salaries of these teachers
isn't going to suddenly fix the education system.
Yeah, simply paying ICE and people on the border more isn't really going to deter
people from showing up here.
And there's just simply not enough agents to patrol the border.
The way you fix that is by making sure that they don't have a reason to come here.
President Donald Trump's multi-trillion dollar tax package, also known as the Big Beautiful Bill, cleared the House in a last-minute 215 to 214
vote. As we said, this was on Thursday morning, the bill now moves to the Senate
where Republicans are calling for major revisions ahead of an unexpected
vote in August. Oh boy, maybe it'll be a birthday present to me. It aims to
prevent a year-end tax hike and a potential debt default that would
significantly increase the near-term federal deficit. Well, I think it'll also to me. It aims to prevent a year-end tax hike and a potential debt default but would significantly
increase the near-term federal deficit. While I think it will also increase the long-term
federal deficit, I don't think this will decrease the debt at all. The 215-214 House vote with one
abstention was met with loud cheers by House Republicans. Some of the key provisions include
extension of Trump-era tax cuts and new reliefs such as exempting tips and overtime from
taxation, state and local tax salt deduction cap will be increased to 40,000
with phase outs for high earners cuts to safety net programs such as Medicaid
and food stamps along new work requirements starting in December 2026.
rollbacks on clean energy tax credits boosting fossil fuel incentives major
increases in military and border security spending.
You gotta make, you gotta give more to the military folks.
We're not spending enough on the military.
We need more drones, more bombs, more tanks.
We need more, more, more.
Raytheon is not making enough money.
They need an extra few billion, don't you know?
New taxes targeting elite universities, Harvard
and other Ivy leagues and immigrant remittances, the elimination of EV tax credits replaced
by interest deductions on US built vehicle loans. Well, I'm all for soaking Harvard and
these other Ivy League places. I think that is the least we could do to them considering
what they've done for us. However, it is wrapped up in all this
other nonsense which is going to continue to worsen the American economy. Yeah, sure there is some
good things in the bill but, you know, that's what they always do though. They put a few good things
sprinkled on top and bury sugar in the pill to make this more palatable, but also there's a suppressor thing.
Dad's texting me now.
Well we see this tweet inside the article from Zero Hedge.
From Zero Hedge.
The big beautiful bill will massively increase near-term deficits and add five trillion in debt you can see it right here on the
article in the bond market the US 30-year Treasury yield moved higher after
the bill narrowly passed the house hitting 5.12 percent the highest level
since October 2023 this level is nearing its highest point since 2007. Boy, 2007, 2008.
Those were great years for the markets, weren't they? I was a bit young at the
time, but I can still remember that it was slightly chaotic, to say the least.
People were not having a great time. Lots of people were losing their houses. It
was a bad time all round for the average American.
Of course, the people that caused it ended up getting bailed out and didn't end up having to pay a thing.
They got richer as people were foreclosed on.
With Treasury yields soaring, perhaps it's time for Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent to fire up the big toolkit.
to fire up the big toolkit. Rep Nathaniel Moran from Texas stated, this bill is our opportunity opportunity to deliver on the promises we made. At
its core, the one big beautiful bill is about more than dollars and cents. It's
about liberty and empowering the American people. The Wall Street Journal
noted Republicans are aiming to get the bill into Trump's desk by July 4th. The real deadline might be a bit later.
That's right.
July 4th, the day we celebrate our liberty, our independence,
they're going to shackle us with more debt, but that's what the government does every year, isn't it? They add more debt.
They bind us down with these chains.
This is another article from Zero Hedge. Solar stocks plunge after house GOP budget worse than deared for clean energy.
Texts that pass the house on a 215 to 214 party line vote early Thursday is even
less favorable to clean energy interests than a previous draft that industry
groups widely panned utility dive reported again
There's some good things in this bill
As we said, that's what they always do
They put a little bit of things that the American people want on top and that's what they crow about. That's what they continually
Talk about in the media. That's what Trump will harp on
but it's all the other things this is a
That's what Trump will harp on. But it's all the other things.
This is a 1196 page bill if memory serves.
It's over 1100 pages anyway.
And who knows exactly what is in there.
There's all kinds of things that they bury in stuff like this.
As was said, it is a pork barrel project.
The bill terminates the 48E investment and 45Y production tax credits for non-nuclear
clean energy projects placed in service after 2028 with no phase-out period.
Projects must begin construction within 60 days of the bill's enactment, likely later
this year to be eligible for the credits.
The version of the House Ways and Means Committee released on May 12 stepped down the value
of the 48E and 45Y
credits over three years and did not include the imminent construction
start requirement giving development and asset owners more leeway to wait out lengthy waits for grid interconnection.
Combined with even tighter restrictions on foreign involvement in US clean energy projects, the truncated eligibility window leaves a near impossible pathway for
non-nuclear
Non-nuclear developers to qualify for the 48e and 45y credits Jeffrey said the foreign involvement restrictions apply to foreign entities of concern like China
Which controls much of the upstream supply chain for batteries electric motors and other clean energy. That's right. China has a
Almost stranglehold on rare earth minerals the ones that we use to manufacture batteries
They have been very very mercenary when it comes to getting a hold of them
And getting a hold of the land where you mine them their belt and road initiative has given them
Tremendous control in places like Africa where these things are mines these things such as lithium
Africa, where these things are mines, these things such as lithium.
The bill also eliminates the inflation reduction acts, tax credit, transferability framework for most clean energy projects.
Experts say transferability, which previously enjoyed bipartisan support,
expands project financing options for small and midsize energy developers
following an outcry from industry groups like nuclear energy Institute.
The house bill extends production and
investment tax credit eligibility for advanced nuclear projects and
Power upgrades of existing reactors that begins construction by 2028
It also extends a separate production credit for existing nuclear power plants through 2031 and preserves transferability for nuclear projects
Again, this is potentially a good thing, but who?
Knows what else is in the bill?
Just because sure there are objectively good things in this bill. I have another one here
that the federal tax on
Suppressors is going away.
So that's been a huge... it's not just the $200 tax stamp, it's also the obstacle that
creates when trying to get a suppressor.
But that's going away with this.
So sure, they'll have some nice things throw a bone to his supporters, but that doesn't
change the fact that this is a huge increase
on the debt.
It is financially disastrous.
Yes, it is completely unsustainable.
We have been running the debt up for decades and the Trump administration put it into warp
speed. put it into warp speed, he just... Trump and Biden, and now Trump again, have ballooned the debt faster than any other president
that I'm aware of.
Comment from Dad, I think the Trump people are intentionally destroying the dollar in
order to push us into stable coins, which I'm sure is something that Trump is heavily
invested in, Trump and his cronies. Yes, they want a CBDC as we've talked about as my dad has talked about numerous times.
They want the CBDC so they are able to track and trace every single purchase all the time
and they can then just turn off your wallet.
The second you do something they don't like, they will be able to vaporize your earnings
or just absorb them back into their own wallet
Make sure that you have to obey the government at any given moment or else
Also things like getting rid of a federal tax suppressor that didn't need to be included in a huge bill of
Mixed goods, you know, you could make that its own thing, but no, they have
to include it in this to get people behind the big beautiful bill so they'll
ignore the horrible parts of it. Yeah, it's just throwing a bone to his
supporters so that he has a way to bully the Republicans and others in the House
to be like, well, I've given you so much stuff that you want.
You have to support this because the base wants these things.
House advances big beautiful bill.
This is on zero hedge as well.
House advances big beautiful bill to floor after 20 hour marathon negotiation.
After a long day of back and forth, the House Rules Committee late Wednesday night advanced
President Trump's big beautiful bill to the House floor after nearly 22 hours of negotiation. This was a heated negotiation folks.
22 hours. Long time to argue about something. Other alterations were made regarding energy
environmental policies, which we've covered. After weeks of turmoil and negotiations,
House Republicans are inching closer to passing their sweeping domestic policy package anchored by a multi-trillion-dollar suite of tax cuts,
as Speaker Mike Johnson braces to finalize legislation ahead of the Memorial Day recess.
And again, of course we support tax cuts.
We want taxes cut.
There is.
That is something we need.
However, it needs to be combined with a spending cut we need to make sure that the
government does not continue
to spend
the way it has otherwise it is just accelerating the debt we need tax cuts
and spending cuts we need to reduce the size of government there are so many
departments that need to just
go
in fact the vast majority of them do they could just be axed
and calling this tax cuts is a bit misleading in that he's added so many taxes with these
tariffs it's just moved the taxes. In the end, it's gone up in total.
Yes. We are going to move right along from this article.
We're going to take a look at this article on AOL, the five house Republicans
who didn't vote for Trump's sweeping tax bill.
Cause who are these people that dared to defy our glorious leader?
He has been very, very vocal about making sure that everyone in the establishment
knows if you oppose him, he will try to get you out.
He will try to primary you.
He will run someone against you.
However, he has not been very successful with his attempts of this in past.
So maybe it's becoming more of a hollow threat.
Five House Republicans didn't join their fellow GOP colleagues supporting the legislative
package packed with President Donald Trump's priorities with while Democrats unanimously unanimously opposed the bill that will swell the national debt and
add work requirements to Medicaid. Democrats opposing debt what a time we
live in. Of course Thomas Massey is one of them very very principled on these
things had already announced his opposition for what he said would
continue bided administration levels of spending long before the vote of 215 in favor 214 opposed and one present
Trump responded that Massey should be voted out of office
Again, we see him bullying and threatening. We will get you out of office if you dare oppose me
Rep Warren Davidson of Ohio also voted against the bill for increasing the deficit a projected 451 billion in
also voted against the bill for increasing the deficit a projected 451 billion in 2027 while I love many things in the bill promising Someone else will cut spending in the future does not cut spending Davidson said in a social media post deficits
Deficits do matter and this bill grows them now
Three other Republicans also didn't cast votes for the Trump bill Andy Harris of Maryland voted present
Which would have effectively been an opposition
vote if the rest of the lawmakers had tied.
Harris is the chairman of the ultraconservative House Freedom Caucus, which sought greater
cuts in spending in the package.
Posted the same chart of growing debt as Davidson before the vote.
Reps David Schweickert of Arizona and Andrew Garabino of New York missed the vote entirely.
They just didn't show up.
They decided not worth it.
House Speaker Mike Johnson, Republican, told reporters there had been 217 GOP votes for
the bill.
Garbarino fell asleep in the back after the all-night session and inadvertently missed
the vote.
Johnson said Schweikart slipped his electronic voting card into place after the vote had
ended.
Well, he just took himself a nice little
nap instead. You know, I think we would all be much better if the government just
did that. Instead of enacting new laws, they all just took naps and left us
alone. I would pay them to do that. Got some comments, Wally?
Comment from the... JP Morgan and other big banks are putting together stable coin plan.
Letnik and Trump will make a fortune off of the switch to crony billionaire digital currency
and other CBDC initiatives.
Yes, they are going to position themselves to make sure they make a killing while killing
the American economy.
Wally, Walrus, no one wants to buy US bonds anymore.
Worthless paper. Yeah. Used to be a solid investment.
Now everyone knows the Americans are not going to pay anything back.
They are too deep in debt. It is not a good investment anymore.
Shelley A, check out the AI parts of the bill. No state will be able to regulate it.
Yes, we talked about that briefly. I believe it was yesterday or the day before how it takes away the power to regulate AI
from the states, puts it solely in the hands of the federal government, makes it so the
states can't object to whatever is going on with AI.
They have no say in it at all.
Which is not a power that the federal government should have.
All powers that are not granted to it by the Constitution are reserved for the states. Yes, but the government has
long since stopped caring about the differentiation of powers between the
different branches. The branches will do whatever they see fit whenever they see
fit. This is from Business Insider. Four ways Trump's big beautiful tax bill could impact your wallet.
I'd be surprised if there are only four ways.
So four ways. The House on Thursday morning passed Trump called the big beautiful bill.
On Thursday morning the House passed the tax bill, an expansive piece of legislation that
would extend the president's 2017 tax cuts and make key changes to the tax system along with
implementing significant changes to Medicaid and supplemental nutrition
assistance programs. The bill is now handed to the Senate. Now it's time for our friends
the United States Senate to get to work and send this bill to my desk as soon as
possible. A slew of tax policies. The legislation would eliminate eliminate
taxes on tips and overtime wages.
Again, that's a good thing.
We support that, but it's the other things that are wrapped up in this bill.
The legislation would eliminate taxes on tips and overtime wages. The bill also has a measure for 4,000 tax deduction for older people making
less than 75,000 a year.
Those two provisions would extend until 2029.
There's also just the fact if these are good things, if we see this and go, yes, we want to do
that, why do they only extend? Why do they only put it in for a certain number of years? If we
are looking at this and say, yes, our elderly need help, they need these tax deductions, why would we
not just put them in in perpetuity? Because it allows them to then fight for these things again,
slap these things back in another bill with more things that we hate that will take more of our liberties.
It is simply a game.
The bill would also raise the child tax credit from $2,000 to $2,500 through 2028.
Additionally, it would eliminate electric vehicle tax credits and establish a $250 annual
registration fee for electric vehicle owners.
It also cuts
tax credits for homeowners to install solar panels or energy efficient heat pumps and
incentives for new energy efficient homes and home weatherization projects. Well, oh
boy, a $2,500 tax credit for having a baby. Isn't that just special? It's not like having a baby is so massively expensive that that tax credit
is utterly absorbed immediately. But who knows, you know, maybe this will see a massive upsurge in
the population. Maybe the birthrate decline will be utterly reversed by that extra $500.
This bill would also make Trump's 2017 tax cuts permanent and increase the state and local tax deduction known as SALT from 10,000 to 40,000.
Student loan forgiveness repealed. Under Trump's tax bill, millions of student loan borrowers would see their repayment options change.
The legislation proposes eliminating income-driven repayment plans and replacing them with two options, the Repayment plan and a standard repayment plan. The repayment assistance plan would allow for loan forgiveness after 360 qualifying payments based on the
borrower's income, while the standard repayment plan would require a fixed monthly payment over
a period set by the servicer. The student loan forgiveness is such a touchy subject. On one hand,
people have been so thoroughly propagandized into attending college and college is such a touchy subject. On one hand, people have been so thoroughly propagandized into
attending college and college is such a useless bill of goods at this point that it almost seems
unfair to charge people for it, but they did sign up for it themselves. And it is also immoral
to make other people pay for something. So on one hand, yes, your college degree is likely worthless.
Yes, you were scammed. However, you opted into the scam
So you should not be allowed to foist that debt onto others
Tony Garrett and the CBDC will have an expiration date attached to so you can't save stockpile anything
Yes, they will make sure that your attempts to save are negated and this will be a direct
Ability to do that not just through inflation,

passes parents could get extra money for their kids down the line. The tax bill includes
a Trump account previously called a money account for growth and advancement or MAGA
account. The government would put 1000 into accounts for babies born after December 31 2024
Before January 1st, 2029 the baby would be required to have born in the US and have a social security number to receive the cash
Oh boy, I'm gonna get an extra thousand dollars in an account for our baby. That's that's great. That's gonna make a huge difference
I cannot wait for that. This will radically change and improve our lives. The
accounts would have tax incentives earnings would be tax deferred meaning the taxes on
accounts would not need to be paid right away. Withdrawals from the accounts would also be
taxed at the long term capital gains rate which is independent on income and typically
lower than the regular income tax rate. Work requirements for Medicaid and SNAP. Lower
income Americans could face bigger health care costs or lose federal assistance benefits. The tax bill would mean significant
changes for the millions who rely on Medicaid and SNAP. The legislation would mandate that states
implement an 80-hour-a-month work requirement by the end of 2026 for childless adults on Medicaid
without a disability. The Congressional Budget Office previously estimated that work requirements on Medicaid could strip coverage from over 8 million Americans
over the next decade. Additionally, the bill would extend the age range of
adults subject to work requirements to receive SNAP to include adults ages 55 to
64. Currently adults ages 15, 18 to 54 without children can receive SNAP
benefits only if they work at least 20 hours a week.
And that is what is going on with the big beautiful bill.
It is truly it is just a symptom of what is going on with the United States.
The Trump bullying, the increase in debt.
It is everything that America is about all
wrapped up into one now I want to read you my dad saw what we said about Scott
Adams and him having cancer and he put together his thoughts on the matter so
want to read that for you I will also read you his anopsis and account of what
happened with the strokes
Later on in the program so that you can get a sense for that. So we'll have that coming up. It'll be a fully a
Fairly detailed timeline of the events
Their comment from Wally walrus. How are they going to raise the birth rate after they ruined women's reproductive organs with the kovat death shots? Yes, that's another question. We don't know what the long term effects of the covid shots are on reproduction.
We have no clue how that is going to impact things in the long term.
We've barely begun to see that we are still in the early stages of it.
And again, we talked about this Scott Adams revealing that he has stage 4 cancer and
This is on LifeSite News Dilbert comic creator reveals stage 4 cancer after saying the unvaccinated are winners
Scott Adams who got the COVID shot plans to commit assisted suicide after a terminal cancer diagnosis two years ago
He admitted anti-vaxxers have a health advantage
diagnosis two years ago. He admitted anti-vaxxers have a health advantage. Scott Adams, the creator of the famous Dilbert comic strip announced he is dying of stage four prostate cancer after
admitting he got the COVID shot, calling the unvaccinated winners. 67 year old known for his
beloved iconic comic strip announced during a rumble live stream on Monday that his prostate
cancer has metastasized to his bones., Adam told the independent that there's no indication the kovat shot is responsible for his cancer
He conceded over two years ago that anti-vaxxers appear to be the most right and appear to be the biggest winners
so Scott is having some buyers or more sit seems and
Again, as I said before we don't want to gloat. We don't want to feel some
Again, as I said before, we don't want to gloat. We don't want to feel some
Vindictive sense of justice here. We should pray that he is healed and pray that he finds god finds jesus
But these are the comments from my dad. I'm sorry that he's suffering with stage four cancer
I wouldn't wish that on anyone not even biden, but it's vital that we learn to discern
Scott shamed and pushed people to the vax and he still has no regrets
Says people who were anti-vax got lucky, which is not true. That's right. If you remember
Scott said that he was just too smart. That's the reason he got it wrong about the vaccine. He was too smart and anyone that
thought differently from him and
Didn't take the vaccine and didn't follow the rules that the government put in place just got lucky they couldn't have figured it out on their own because Scott is smarter than you and as such there's no
way that you could have figured it out when he didn't. Two weeks in he said it's
getting harder to tell freedom lovers from sociopaths. My dad said if you
remember it's getting harder to tell pragmatists from totalitarians.
He pushed and mocked people to do what he appears now to believe is killing him.
That's right, he, as was covered by the article, admits the anti-vaxxers are winners.
And while he doesn't seem or won't admit that there could be a correlation between the vaccine and the prostate cancer we have seen turbo cancer, people getting these rapidly rapidly developing cancers since the COVID shot.
So it is very, it's very easy to look at this and say it is
likely or at least possible that his cancer is caused by the
COVID shot. It was completely ignorant of dark winter and the
annual rehearsals to do what they were doing.
He refused to critically think about the recommendations that made no sense.
Even if their virus and vaccine paradigms were true.
I realized it's difficult for people to break away from long-held paradigms,
so I deconstructed the insanity from within the paradigm.
How masks couldn't possibly work, etc.
He appeared to know nothing and care less about the history and mechanism of mRNA,'t possibly work, etc. He appeared to know nothing and careless
about the history and mechanism of mRNA, big pharma, etc. Most of all, beware of people
who are wise in their own eyes. Being rich doesn't mean you're smart. That's right.
He says he believes plenty of smart people like Dr. Robert Malone and Elon Musk got jabbed because they were working with bad data
well
You don't necessarily have to trust the data you're given you can look at it and say does this seem real?
Scott immediately trusted it because it came from an authority a source that he
Implicitly trusted intelligence is not the same as judgment or discernment. As for bad data, it comes from trusting people and institutions have been proven untrustworthy. That's not smart.
Yes, the government has routinely been shown to lie over and over again. He trusted people that were obvious liars. His key mistake then and now was to believe
Coven was real. That created a cycle of fear. Now as an atheist, he says he will commit suicide,
still clueless about the ultimate issue. God. Not many wise are called. Don't be like him.
Don't envy him. Pity him. Yes, we should pity Scott Adams
We should pity him and pray for him pray for his healing. But more importantly pray that he is able to
Divest himself of his ego and admit that he does need a Savior that uh, that he needs Jesus. We actually have
The clip of Scott Adams which I will play for you now.
Completely.
Having said as clearly as possible that the anti-vaxxers people seem to be the winners,
I want you to hear that clearly. The anti-vaxxers people appear to be the winners.
The anti-vaxxers clearly are the winners at this point,
and I think it'll probably stay that way,
and I don't want to put any shade on that whatsoever.
They came out the best.
They have the winning position.
The unvaccinated have a current advantage
because they feel better.
The thing they're not worrying about is what I have to worry
about, which is I wonder if that vaccination five years from now, because really the anti-vaxxers,
I think, were really just distrustful of big companies and big government. That's never wrong.
It's never wrong to distrust government. It's never wrong to distrust
big companies. So if you just took the position, let's just distrust everything the government
did, well you won. You won. You won completely. I did not end up in the right place. Agree?
You would all agree with that, right? I did not end up in the right place. Agree? You would all agree with that, right? I did not end up in the
right place. The right place would be natural immunity, no vaccination. You should take
victory and I should take defeat. We can agree on that, right? That my position is now the
weakest and your position has gone from the weakest
to the strongest, and that we can just say that's true.
The people who didn't give acts are absolutely
in the winning position.
You win.
You win.
You are the winners.
You are the winners.
Let me say that part with no ambiguity.
You won.
You won.
All of my fancy analytics got me to a bad place.
All of your heuristics, don't trust these guys,
it's obvious, totally worked.
these guys, it's obvious, totally worked.
Well, I'm not, I'm not happy to agree with Scott on this.
Yes, the anti-vaxxers were right. It is always correct to distrust the government
and these large corporations.
But as Soylent Goy said, nobody actually won anything.
We are all suffering under this,
whether it is the people who got
vaccinated suffering with all kinds of terrible health issues such as we see
with Scott Adams cancer or us suffering under the further reduction of freedom
that we are still dealing with which will probably never go away because it
never does. They never roll these things back. And I just, I do pity Scott Adams.
I have made my criticisms of him known over the years,
but I feel so sorry for him.
This is a terrible, terrible thing he is dealing with.
And I do hope he does come to find Jesus in the end.
It is, this isn't something I would wish on anyone, as my dad said, not even Biden.
Got comments. Angry Tigers Den.
It seems with this administration, the focus is to consolidate power or either under
the executive branch or under the central government.
Yes, Trump wants all power consolidated to him.
He wants to be able to do what he wants when he wants.
It is all about his ego. He doesn't want anyone wants to be able to do what he wants when he wants. It is all about his ego
He doesn't want anyone else to be able to wield power
Nathan Bedford Forrest 1865 cool name. Nathan Bedford Forrest was a super interesting guy
Prostate cancer is the most easily treatable and very survival type of cancer. It has to be jab related that exacerbated his cancer. I
Will take your word for that. I don't know much about cancer.
So, Raddest Bro. Scott once trusted the plan. He's still trusting. He's trusting in all the wrong
things. Trusting in all the wrong things. The one thing he really needs to trust in now is Jesus.
So that's what we need to pray for. Raddest bro, how about I don't want crap injected in me from people who clearly don't have your
best interest in mind like common sense.
Yes, it is.
It was simply common sense to look at the people that were pushing the vaccine, the
companies that were pushing the vaccines and the way they were pushing them to just go.
Yeah, that, uh, that doesn't make sense.
Why would these people do this?
They don't have my best interest at heart Anthony Fauci was such an obvious scumbag
That to trust him was borderline insane in my opinion soylent goy
It was based on information not simply distrust. He still doesn't get it
Yeah, thing is if Scott Adams admits that it was based on information
He might have to admit that there were some people that were smarter than him that figured it out and don't get me wrong
I'm not trying to postulate that I'm smarter than Scott Adams, but my dad knew from the beginning what this was about
He was immediately on top of it
Solo cat 1980 we didn't get lucky. We saw right through the Vax propaganda Scott Adams cannot admit he got duped by the propaganda. Yes, and
This is a common thing we see especially in intelligent people
They can buy in even harder sometimes than people who are not as intelligent because to admit they got duped
Then brings their intelligence into question
so it can
Intelligence can be a double-edged sword
Intelligence can be a double-edged sword
thankfully, I intelligence can be a double-edged sword. thankfully I don't struggle with that
right overture winning isn't watching the gullible die or suffer yes I fully
agree with you right overture you are dead on the money there winning is
winning would be seeing none of this happening. Having, living in a country where this type of thing
doesn't ever happen.
Well, we are going to take a quick break.
And when I come back, when we come back,
I'm going to read to you the account of what
happened with the strokes and just give you
the timeline of events.
So oh, we've got a comment.
Ron Helton won, Scott is now looking at it all wrong.
We all lost because if he had stood together,
there had been no lockdowns or coercion
to take the jabby jab.
That's right.
He is still looking at it from the wrong perspective.
He is still looking at it in terms of winners and losers
when we were all losers in this scenario.
The only people that actually won anything
were the pharmaceutical companies
and the people that work for them.
They made out like bandits.
They made billions, maybe even trillions of dollars
off of poisoning and killing people.
It is the greatest crime
that the planet has ever seen, in my opinion.
Cabos888, he is correct in distrusting the
government and their monopolies. Yes, immediately distrust the government, immediately distrust
large corporations. They don't have your best interests at heart. Intrinsically they oppose quick break and we will be right back. The End I'm So The I'm going to be a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a

You're listening to the David Knight Show.
Welcome back folks. Glad you are still with us. Three little birds depopulation
is the agenda and the financial reset will be the final nail in the population
coffins. Yes they will make it impossible for you to survive. They will take all
your money. They will siphon it off and keep it
all in some big dragon hoard somewhere so Bill Gates can roll around on it.
Bill Gates and Elon Musk, they'll go skipping through a field of gold and crypto.
But as I said, now we are going to look at the timeline of events of what happened with
the strokes and the health concerns my dad has been dealing with.
We're going to start out with the way my mom remembers it and then we'll have what he himself wrote down. So this is what my mom
has put in, how she remembers the timeline and I she's got a great memory for this kind of things
and just again I want to thank you all for praying. So before we get into I want to thank you all for
praying for my dad and just ask you to continue praying for him and for all of us and for my mom
She has been amazing through this. She has worked so hard been there for him every step of the way
She is an amazing
Wife to him and mother to us. I am so blessed to have her in my life
Wednesday
May 7th David had his first stroke at 11 48 a.m
At his desk he fell off his chair and injured his ribs on the side of the table
He was alone and thought he had just fallen asleep at his desk
Said it was strange because his left hand wouldn't respond the stroke lasted just a few minutes and he seemed perfectly fine
But took the following day off due to the pain in his ribs. Yes, if you'll remember that day
We did a pre-recorded interview in the third hour. So if we hadn't done that the stroke would have happened while he was on the air. Thursday,
May 8th, David had a second stroke at 8 45 pm. His blood pressure was 233 over 150, which is just a
ludicrous number. The stroke lasted for about 30 minutes. We were able to get him to the hospital in 15 minutes from when it started. The neurologist did a brain scan, a CT, and
said there was no lingering effects from the first two strokes, but he needed an operation
on his carotid artery that the hospital couldn't do because they needed a specialist. We had
to wait for the University of Tennessee Hospital in Knoxville or hospital in Chattanooga to have a bed available and eventually he was put in the University
the UT Hospital in Knoxville so that we were thankful for that because Chattanooga
is quite a ways away from us it would have made things very difficult David
was transferred to the University of Tennessee Hospital surgery had to be
delayed for 72 hours from the time of his last stroke. They don't want to do it immediately afterwards.
They like to wait that 72 hours. David was told there was only a 2 to 3% risk of a stroke
during the surgery. Monday, May 12th, the operation room was reserved for three hours.
David's surgery lasted over five hours. His pulse rate was 180 and he suffered another
stroke during the surgery. There was damage to a nerve in his tongue pray it will not be permanent tubes down his throat caused damage to his vocal
Chords as well. Yes, so now thanks to your prayers some of David's tongue function is restored, especially
Swallowing he's regained some use of his left hand but not fine motor skills for playing the piano or typing
David's voice is very gravelly and slurred. He's seeing a speech therapist.
He's out of the wheelchair and using a walker, but he's still shaky and seeing a physical therapist.
Now, this is how, this is what my dad has written.
It has been a surreal experience when my body does not respond as it should, especially my tongue and left hand.
After the operation, actual physical tubes, IV monitors, etc. were like strings keeping me from moving my hands even more.
Immediately after the surgery, my mouth was so dry and crusted, it was horrible.
I pleaded for the nurse to moisten my lips, but he refused saying, I'm busy.
I heard him say my oxygen levels were good as the nose tubes were drying out my nose.
I tried to reposition them and he yelled at me and threatened to restrain me.
drying out my nose. I tried to reposition them and he yelled at me and threatened to restrain me. Karen got to the CV ICU, cardiovascular ICU, and immediately took care of my mouth.
The nurse then put a tube down my nose to my stomach, nasal slash gastric. Karen found
out that he had already given notice and had just a few more days to work. That's right,
the nurse just did not care. He had put in his two weeks and was only filling time
He did not care at all about my dad's needs or wants. He was going to do what he wanted to do and no more
Next morning as soon as the next nurse
Relieved him. I asked if the tube could be removed
She said it was necessary to keep it in order to give me Tylenol in four hours
I had refused Tylenol and any painkillers the entire stay and told her so. She said it could come out
So I took it out immediately myself. She was furious. That's right
The nursing staff was not happy when my dad pulled the tube out. They
Had a slight conniption. I told the doctor I wanted to be discharged. I had had enough
I did stay but issues with the beds and other things got me so upset that once again my pulse went up to 180
I was then transferred to the cardiac unit and finally met some wonderful nurses and technicians. They had an
issue with, that's right, they had an issue with the bed that he was in. It got lodged at its highest
position and they spent, I believe it was at least two hours trying to get it working again and it
just kept juttering up and down, back and forth, making the already uncomfortable bed completely and utterly miserable to be in
So his blood pressure of course skyrocketed again from that won't go into more detail except to say how grateful
I am for your many prayers
God could easily address issues with a single prayer and he does sometimes
But I think the purpose is that we can all see him involved in our lives and we did
It's not just when my pulse was at 180 but also when my blood pressure was at 233 over 150. It was the strangers that prayed for me when we first got to
the emergency room. When Travis and Lance were in the emergency room with me there was an infant
screaming in agony for a long time. The three of us prayed for the infant to be comforted and the
screaming stopped before we even finished praying. Yes. I can't thank people enough who offered to
give pure blood even from out of
state. Eric Peters and his wife, yes Eric, and his wife both offered to donate blood to make sure
that he wouldn't get vaccinated blood if it was needed. I'm Marty from New York. Local friends and
listeners and Scott Scherer did everything he could help us find resources here locally.
Fortunately he didn't need blood. Word to the wise? It takes three to four days for blood banks to let you use blood donated
specifically for you. In my case, there wasn't enough time. There is good news, however. Blood Saver technology has a machine that takes your own blood
during surgery, saves it and allows the doctors to reuse it during your surgery. Thank you, Liz from Pure Blood for that information. God willing, I hope to be back soon. But right now, I sound a lot like Sylvester
Stallone. And I slurp like Sylvester the cat. So he's feeling a bit sly right now. But that is part
of it. And this is the next part. This is about meds says to pharma or not to pharma. Once pharma
decides something is a problem, all efforts are focused
on eliminating that problem, even to the detriment of other systems in the body, i.e. cholesterol is
vital for mental function, but they seek to essentially eliminate it through statins.
Adverse condition ignored. A 2020 study of over 4600 people showed diabetes risks doubling after one year, tripling after two.
This is dismissed by doctors as secondary to benefits.
Meds are the big question mark.
Pfizer's Eloquist is an anti-platelet clot, as is Lumbrokema's.
Dosage is always the issue.
There has been big improvements in this past week,
and I want people who are praying for us to know how God has protected and helped us.
Physicians treat, but God heals
Please continue praying for one that I'll be able to communicate again to that
I would magnify God and not my fears and three that this would bring me closer to God so that this time would not
Be wasted this may be more grateful for my immediate family and you my extended family with such high blood pressure and pulse numbers
I'd likely not have made it without your prayers. May God bless you." That is my dad's statement on what happened with
the strokes. And again, I too just want to thank you all for the prayers. It has been truly wonderful
to see the outpouring of love and prayers that have been sent up for him and I too believe that without them he might not be here with us today. It was as
Was said in there the surgery was supposed to last three hours, but it took five
And we just thank you all so much for your continued prayers
so as he said just pray for complete healing and before the show he came in and prayed for us as well and
He also stated that he's having some issues with panic attacks and that it is making him very anxious
So please pray for that as well. Please pray that that would be reduced and go away
Some of the medication they have him on right now can cause those sorts of side effects
So we just pray that we were able to find a resolution to this and that God would provide healing medication they have him on right now can cause those sorts of side effects. So
we just pray that we were able to find a resolution to this and that God would provide healing.
And thank you all so much. DG8, thank you for the tip. That is so very kind. Prayers for David and his family. God bless you and your listeners. Yes, thank you. Again, we do pray for you all and that God would bless you all. So thank you very, very much.
It has been, as I said, amazing and truly wonderful
and a blessing to see the levels of love
and support that you all have.
I cannot thank you enough,
but that is what is going on with our dad.
And now I think, I think we'd like to look at education right now.
It is a true cornerstone of what we are dealing with.
The federal school system is how they're able to brainwash people.
So this article is on the Daily Caller.
Exclusive Biden admin quietly installed nearly 200 attorneys as
Education Department pursued radical agenda. The Department of
Education ED under the Biden administration used an obscure
hiring gimmick to bring in nearly 200 attorneys while pushing
radical policies that face persistent legal opposition.
The Biden administration used the Schedule A hiring process, which provides an expedited path by bypassing the usual competitive process and negating the requirements that appointments be
made based on merit. The Education Department hired 193 attorneys from January 20, 2021 through
April 30, 2024, mostly staffing the Department office for civil rights OCR, according to
documents obtained through a Freedom of Information Act
request by Protect the Public Trust PPT and shared with the
Daily Caller News Foundation schedule a positions are not
required to be publicly posted according to the Equal
Employment Opportunities Commission. The appointments
through the system do not expire at the end of the
president's term. We've uncovered other agencies during the Biden administration
that use Schedule A hiring authority to staff ranks of career officials outside
the normal competitive process often in politicized offices or offices working
on highly contentious issues. Michael Chamberlain, director of PPT, told the DCNF,
the Department of Education, looks
to have used the same authority to bulk up its office for civil rights, with career attorneys
stocking one of the most political offices in the department.
OCR, by the way, worked on the administration's massive and unpopular rewrite of Title IX
regulations.
It's little wonder why the American public lost so much trust in its government during
this time. They are every aspect of the school system.
Every position that they can fill with an ideologue that will push their agenda will be staffed by an
ideologue that will push their agenda. That has long been the plan. They will make sure that every
person top to bottom will toe the party line of Marxism, cultural Marxism.
Several other department hires were also employed through the Schedule A process, including program specialists and administrative officers, the document show.
It's not enough just to have the teachers. If it's just the teachers, you might have someone in a position of authority somewhere that would eventually get sick of it and remove them. But if you have all these other people in the power structure that are behind the scenes that
support them as well, it becomes infinitely more difficult to get rid of them even when you catch
them in this insanity.
Former President Joe Biden's Education Department pushed several controversial policies such as
rewriting Title IX, a civil rights rule meant to protect women from discrimination to include gender identity. The rule was challenged several times in courts
before eventually being dropped and later blocked and vacated in federal court.
Another education policy that met with legal friction was Biden's attempt to forgive student
loans numerous courts have struck down the administration's plans to wipe out. To wipe
away the debt of nearly 40 million Americans, including the Supreme Court, which ruled in 2023 that Biden's use of executive power was unconstitutional.
However, the former president found several loopholes to forgive billions in debt, such
as for federal employees.
Biden's Department of Justice, DOJ, previously used Schedule 8 higher well over 100 immigration
judges for its immigration
review division just months before President Donald Trump assumed office.
ED did not immediately respond to the DCNF's request for comment.
And so we can see that the education system only gets more corrupt, only gets more mired
in the politics of our age.
Even if you support the public school system, the federal school system, the government school system,
you would think you would want it to be about education and not just about pushing an agenda.
Federal judge blocks shutdown of Education Department. That's right. Donald Trump talked a lot about potentially shutting down the Department of Education
But we see once again judges are telling him no and he just goes. Well, okay. Okay
Whatever you say bud a federal judge on Thursday blocked President Trump's executive order to shut down the Department of Education
The judge ordered the department to reinstate employees who were fired en masse. Layoffs.
This federal agency that was created by the federal government and the legislative branch
thinks that it can then keep it in place and the federal branch that created it can't
do anything to stop them allegedly. Yeah, they only
let you do things one... it only goes in one direction. That's how this works. But
a judge has told Donald Trump, no, you can't do that. And of course he says, yes
sir. Sorry sir, whatever you say sir. This is an article from Zero Hedge.
Supreme Court deadlocks, leaves in place,
block on nation's first religious charter school.
The Supreme Court on May 22nd voted four to four
to reject authorization for the nation's first
publicly funded religious charter school.
Justice Amy Coney Barrett recused herself
and did not participate in the case
known as Oklahoma Statewide Charter School Board v. Drummond.
They need to start making these names catchier, you know.
They could get Michael Bay in on it and he could really jazz these up.
The respondent is Gettner Drummond, Oklahoma's Attorney General.
The Supreme Court's unsigned opinion consists of one sentence.
The judgment is affirmed by an equally divided court. No reasons for the ruling were provided.
As the vote resulted in a tie under court rules, the lower court ruling being appealed
is affirmed.
On June 25, 2024, the Oklahoma Supreme Court ruled against the school, ordering the school
board to cancel the contract and finding that the school was a government entity.
The court determined that since the school was deemed government entity. The court determined that since
the school was deemed a state actor, denying it charter status did not
violate the free exercise clause. The state court also found that the school's
contract with school board violated the Oklahoma Constitution's prohibition
against using public money for the benefit or support of any religious
institution. They say this is a developing story and will
be updated. Yes, we'll keep our eyes on that. And of course Mark Hall has done an
excellent documentary called Killing Ed about the Muslim charter schools, the
Fatala Ghulam charter schools, which are cropped up all over the country. So if
you would like more information about that you can look up his documentary
Killing Ed. It's available in quite a few places. I believe it's available on Apple TV if you would like
to stream it. But yes, look up Mark Hall's documentary if you're curious about
charter schools and how dangerous they can be. Judge Halt's dismantling of
Education Department orders fired workers to be reinstated. This is on NBC
News and this is about the judge telling Donald Trump, no you can't do that and dismantling of education department orders fired workers to be reinstated. This is on NBC news.
And this is about the judge telling Donald Trump, no, you can't do that.
And him just meekly saying, okay.
Well, I'm sure he probably, he wasn't meek about it, but it's,
the effect is the same.
This is by Gary Grumbach and Darae Gregorian.
Gregorian.
Now that's a cool name.
A federal judge in Massachusetts on Thursday issued an injunction blocking the Trump administration
from dismantling the Department of Education and ordering that fired employees
be reinstated. And again, if Trump really was this populist president, this man who was going to do things for the people,
he could just say the Supreme Court has made the rule. let's see them enforce it. The record abundantly reveals
that defendants true intention is to effectively dismantle the department without an authorizing
statute. U.S. District Judge Myung Joon wrote noting the department cannot be shut down without
Congress's approval. Once again, you got to get Congress involved in this despite the fact that it was the
it was the federal government, it was the executive branch, I believe, as you would call it, that
decided on the Department of Education in the first place. The judge said an injunction was
necessary because the supporting declarations of former department employees, educational institutions,
unions, and educators paint a stark picture of the irreparable
harm that will result from financial uncertainty and delay impeded access to vital knowledge
on which students and educators rely and loss of essential services for America's most vulnerable
student populations. Before the mass firings or reductions enforced, the department was already
struggling to meet its goals, so it's only reasonable to expect that an RIF of this magnitude will likely cripple the department Jun
John June probably June wrote a spokesperson for the Education Department Maddie Biederman said officials will immediately challenge this on an emergency
basis well
Again, we talked about yesterday how the Department of Education has been failing students on a monumental level. They can't read, they can't do arithmetic, but still they want
more and more money every year. That's how the federal government operates. No
matter how badly you fail, no matter how poorly you do your job, you can just come
and say, well if I just had more money I'd do it better. That's what happens
every single time with the government. They will fail upwards and throw money at the problem, whatever
the problem may be. Harrison fields a spokesperson for the White House said
in a statement that the president and his secretary of education have the
legal authority to make decisions regarding the agency's reorganization
and a leftist judges ruling cannot change that reality. We look forward to
appealing this misguided decision and achieving ultimate victory
Again, why even give this judge the time of day?
Why acknowledge it? Why bother with it? Just go ahead with what you were doing
Judge has no authority here
The administration filed a notice of appeal Thursday afternoon
The firings of 1300 employees were announced in March after President Donald Trump pledged
to shutter the department and days before he issued an executive order directing Education
Secretary Linda McMahon to take all necessary steps to facilitate the closure of the Department
of Education, the judge noted.
In her confirmation hearing, McMahon testified that the administration would not try to abolish
the department without congressional approval, as required by law, and testified that the administration would try, would not try to abolish the department without congressional approval as required by law and said that she would
present a plan that senators could get on board with. And again, I do not believe they need Congress to deal with this
since they had no right to establish it in the first place. They could just shutter it. They could close it all down.
just shutter it they could close it all down and we've got some comments here three little birds is there anywhere gifts or letters can be sent to David

Hello it's me, Wlodemir Zelensky.
I'm so tired of wearing these same t-shirts everywhere for years.
You'd think with all the billions I've skimmed off America, I could dress better.
And I could if only David Knight would send me one of his beautiful grey MacGuffin hoodies
or a new black t-shirt with the MacGuffin logo in blue.
But he told me to get lost.
Maybe one of you American suckers can buy me some at thedavidknightshow.com.
You should be able to buy me several hundred.
Those amazing sand-coloured microphone hoodies are so beautiful.
I'd wear something other than green military cosplay
to my various gala and social events.
If you want to save on shipping,
just put it in the next package of bombs and missiles coming from the USA. the The The The Making sense, Common again. You're listening to The David Knight Show.
Wait a minute. Where am I?
Sorry, Jefferson. The scoundrels who put America on central bank fiat currency used our heads on their coins as some sort of trophy. Despicable.
This is outrageous. Washington!
I spent my life fighting centralized power.
Now the Federal Reserve monopoly parades us around on their monopoly money.
Tell me there's some good news to all this.
Well there is a coin they can't control, one that isn't backed by the Fed, but backed by
the Fed Up, the all-new David Night Show commemorative coin.
Now patriots can support a show that won't sell out,
with a limited edition coin that's sure to sell out quickly.
They say money talks, and this coin has something worth listening to.
The truth doesn't need inflation, only support.
Well, thank you for still being with your folks and that's right the new coin will be up on the website shortly of course those are made by Jason Barker he does a great job with them this new one looks

So if you've got questions or comments
direct them at the account
I would love to hear from you all but in this segment i'd like to look at
Why we pray
and this is something
That my dad has been talking about a lot over the last few days, over
the last week that he's been home. And this is from the C.S. Lewis Institute,
simply titled, Why Pray? It's by Thomas A. Terrence. This is from March 1st, 2003.
Yes, why pray? If God is omniscient, doesn't he know everything we need? And if he is both
omniscient and good, won't he provide it whether we pray or not? So goes a common line of reasoning
about prayer, which influences many of us to our own impoverishment and detriment of Christ's
kingdom. This reasoning has a certain logic and seems to have some biblical plausibility.
Scripture clearly tells us that God is all-knowing.
Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of Him to whom we must give
an account. Hebrews 4 13.
And that He is all-powerful and does as He pleases with the powers of heaven and the people of the earth.
No one can hold back His hand or say to him. What have you done?
Daniel 435 and that the Lord is good and his love endures forever his faithfulness continues through all generations Psalms
100 verse 5
However to infer from these truths that prayer is unnecessary is to overlook the broader teaching of scripture.
The Bible does indeed teach us that everything we need for life and godliness is found in God who is willing and able to give it,
and knows our need before we ask.
But it does not teach that he bestows these riches upon us automatically as a matter of right.
Jesus says, and it will be given to you.
Seek and you will find knock and the door will be open to you
Matthew 7 7 have faith in God whatever you ask for in prayer believe that you have received it and it will be yours
Mark 11 22 24 this kind can come out only by prayer mark 929
Get up and pray so you will not fall into temptation
Luke 22 46 if you believe you'll receive whatever you ask for in prayer,
Matthew 21, 22. They should always pray and not give up, Luke 18, 1. The clear import of these
and similar passages is that in many instances, we can lay hold of God's promises only through
believing prayer. John Calvin places great stress on the importance of prayer, saying,
words fail to explain how necessary prayer is
He held that it is by the benefit of prayer that we reach those riches which are laid up for us
With Heavenly Father and that after we have been instructed by faith to recognize that whatever we need and whatever we lack is in God
It remains for us to seek him and in prayer to ask of him. We have learned to be in him
seek him, and in prayer to ask of him what we have learned to be in him. He saw no conflict between prayer and providence, but rather taught that in prayer we invoke the presence
both of his providence and of his power. Prayer and providence, then far from being antithetical,
are actually reciprocal. Providence inspires prayer, and prayers invoke providence. Here
divine sovereignty and human responsibility mysteriously converge in a way we cannot fully explain but which is nonetheless real. By failing to pray, we can forfeit personal
blessings which God would otherwise bestow. It does appear that in his sovereignty, God
has ordained believing prayer as a necessary means for our receiving many of his promises.
Therefore James can say, you do not have because you do not ask and Calvin says to us nothing is promised
To be expected from the Lord which you're not also been to ask of him in prayers
And he is in and he is inactive as if forgetting us when he sees us idle and mute
And so while some measure of blessings come to everyone because God
Causes his son to rise on the evil and the good it is only through prayer that we lay hold of many riches he promises.
By failing to pray, we can hinder.
By failing to pray, can we hinder the work of God's kingdom?
Scripture is clear that ultimately God's kingdom
will prevail over the kingdoms of this world
and that his purposes will be fulfilled,
yet scripture also teaches that believing prayer
is somehow a significant part of the process.
Jesus teaches us
that Jesus teaches us to pray, your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven,
and to ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore to send out workers into his harvest field.
And he promises, I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the son may bring glory to the father,
you may ask me anything in my name, and I will do it." In Paul's ministry, prayer is consistently a vital element for opening doors and effective
ministry and a key to his deliverance from prison. The apostles devoted themselves to
prayer and the ministry of the Word. James exhorts us to imitate the faith and prayer of Elijah,
saying, the fervent prayers of a righteous mans much. The inescapable conclusion from these in
many similar passages is that the sovereign God has ordered his creation
in such a way as to allow prayer to play a vital part of the outworking of his
purposes. It is true then that the fervent prayer of a righteous man
avails much. Doesn't the kingdom suffer loss from missed opportunity when we
neglect earnest prayer? What would have happened if Moses had not interceded for Israel on Sinai?
Or if the Jerusalem church had not made earnest prayer for Peter as he awaited execution?
Why pray? Because the sovereign God who's indeed omniscient,
omnipotent, and good has established prayer as the means by which we receive what he has promised and
help fulfill what he has ordained. One can only wonder what blessings we are
missing today, both in our personal lives and in our church, is because of our failure to earnestly
pray. One can only wonder what might yet happen if we would follow the examples of Luther, Calvin,
Edwards, Whitefield, and Spurgeon, and many others who devoted themselves to prayer. Perhaps it is
time for us as individuals and congregations to devote ourselves to prayer and to cry out with the apostles.
And we have seen in our lives just over the last week what your prayers have done for us.
As my dad said with the blood pressure numbers and the heart rates that he was experiencing,
without your prayers we do not think he would still be here with us. We have seen
an outpouring of mercy from God as he answered our prayers and your prayers, that he would protect
and preserve our Father here on earth, that he would have more time with us. And so just our family
alone can testify in that way. that prayer is a key part of
the Christian relationship with God that we should reach out and ask of him
things that we should pray for these things. The beginning of that article
where it's asking you know why pray if God is sovereign over everything it
makes me think of the story of Jericho,
where they're told to march around the city and blow horns.
That obviously isn't going to cause the walls to fall down,
but that was how God decreed to show his power
was first that they would walk around it
and declare essentially God's power over it and then God acted.
Yes. And I know in my own personal life I can fall into this trap of, well, it's sort of a
ritualistic, mechanistic thing I can engage with, but that is not the truth of it. Every time we pray, we are directly...
it is as if you are before him in the throne room. That is the way I try to view it in the moments
when I am clearly thinking about it, that I am right before his feet, that he is directly before
me and is hearing me cry out to him. So that is what I try to keep in mind. It is a very direct and
personal connection to the Lord of all creation who loves us and wants what is
best for us. And this is another part. And that's a big part of it is it is for the one that is praying
for a large portion of it is to show God's power and to draw us nearer to him.
Yes. And as I said, in our lives, we have seen so many times answered prayers. And this is another
article on prayer. This is from Got Questions, and it is simply again titled, Why Pray? And the answer
for the Christian praying is supposed to be like breathing easier to do than not to do we pray for a
variety of reasons
For one thing prayer is a form of serving God and obeying him
We pray because God commands us to pray prayers exemplified for us by Christ in the early church
If Jesus thought it was worthwhile to pray we should also and it that is a
Very very good. Just simple way of putting it Jesus prayed and if it is something
Jesus engaged in and did we should do so all the more
Another reason to pray is that God intends prayer to be the means of obtaining his solutions in a number of situations
We pray in preparations for major decisions to overcome demonic barriers to gather workers for the spiritual harvests, to gain strength to overcome temptation, and to obtain means of strengthening others spiritually.
We come to God with our specific requests, and we have God's promise that our prayers
are not in vain, even if we do not receive specifically what we asked for.
His promise that when we ask for things that are in accordance with His will, He will give
us what we ask.
Sometimes He delays His answers according to his wisdom and for our benefit.
In these situations, we are to be diligent and persistent in prayer.
Prayer should not be seen as our means of getting God to do our will on earth,
rather as a means of getting God's will done on earth.
God's wisdom far exceeds our own.
That's right.
In my own personal life, as I'm sure many of you know,
I have rheumatoid arthritis.
It has caused some issues with my body.
It causes pain and discomfort.
And I, of course, pray for relief for that.
But whether God relieves that or not, the act of praying and communing with him is worthwhile.
And of course, the clay cannot say to the potter, why have you made me this way? It is his will that I must serve and he may possibly have a purpose for me to have this disease.
Perhaps it is so people can see that I still maintain good spirits and still trust in him despite the fact that
I still deal with it.
For situations in which we do not know God's will specifically, prayer is a means of
discerning his will. Prayer was instrumental in the spirit sending of Paul and Barnabas on
the first missionary journey. Solomon asked for wisdom and knowledge and God gave him that and
much more. Prayers unprayed will be prayers unanswered. If the Syrian woman with the demon
influenced daughter had not prayed to Christ, her daughter would not have been made whole. If the
blind man outside Jericho had not called out to Christ, he would have
remained blind.
God has said that we often go without because we do not ask.
In one sense, prayer is like sharing the gospel with people.
We do not know who will respond to the message of the gospel until we share it.
In the same way, we will never see the results of answered prayer unless we pray.
A lack of prayer demonstrates a lack of faith and a lack of
trust in God's Word.
We pray to demonstrate our faith in God that he will do as he has promised in his Word and bless our lives
abundantly more than we could ask or hope for.
Prayer is our primary means of seeing God work in others lives because it is our means of
plugging into God's power. It is our means of defeating Satan and his army that we are powerless to overcome by ourselves. Therefore may God find us
before his throne for we have a high priest in heaven who can identify with
all that we go through. We have his promise that the fervent prayer of a
righteous man accomplishes much. May God glorify his name in our lives as we
believe in him enough to come to him often in prayer. Yes, again, we have seen prayer work so many miracles in our lives, especially
this past week.
So again, thank you all for prayer.
And we just ask that you do continue to pray for our dad, pray that he would be
healed, that he would be restored.
But I also, many people treat prayer as a last resort as something like well, this is only for major issues
This is only something I only go to God when I have a huge
You know unsolvable problem of my own but that is not the way we are meant to treat it
You can pray about anything for anything no matter how small or trivial or inconsequential
You can pray about anything for anything no matter how small or trivial or inconsequential
God can answer your prayer. He is the he's omnipotent. It takes the same amount of effort for everything which is to say none
Whether it's something trivial in your life or spinning up the entire universe. God can do it
That is how it is. This is a silly little anecdote, but
This is the most trivial prayer request that I've ever seen answered immediately in my life. I was probably no older than
10 and I was playing Pokemon. I remember praying to catch this one specific
Pokemon that was very difficult and immediately it happened. Showed up, I
caught it and I remember thinking, wow, what a miracle.
And I know this is a trivial, ridiculous instance, but again, it, God answers even the trivial,
ridiculous prayers of children. And I find that to be amazing. Comment from angry tigers den.
Whenever I pray, I always make it a point to thank God for all the blessings
He has given me. Even if I'm going through tough times, a lot of times tough times are a blessing in and of themselves. Yes.
Tough times and hard times are how God can teach us many many things. He uses them very frequently to
show us areas that we lack and to give us lessons. He is a good
father and he teaches us through many different ways. M. Sellers, we should be in prayer daily,
not begging or pleading but in a relationship. Yes, you can talk to God as you would your
father, because he is your father and he's a good father. Got some more about prayer. This is from
Relationships Well. What's the point of prayer when God does whatever he wants?
And again, we've talked about this a little bit, but I think this article is
still worth reading through. This isn't just a blog post written for views or
rankings high in Google. I'm writing this blog post for me and then hopefully for you. The title, What's the Point of Prayer, is something I've found
myself asking more than ever this past week as I've immersed myself in a constant state
of prayer for specific situations in my life. I begin to wonder why I even waste my breath,
thoughts, and time. God is just going to do whatever he wants anyway, right? Well, that's
what the Bible says. Psalm 135, 6 states states the Lord does whatever he pleases in the heavens and on the earth in the seas and all their depths pretty much
Whatever God wants to happen happens. So what does it matter if I want something different?
Why pray for something specific when God is going to do what he wants regardless? What's the point of prayer?
Why pray when prayers don't get answered when my mom died?
It was one of the first times I really understood that just because God can do something doesn't mean he will. And that very thought has bombarded
my mind so much this week. I pray, I trust God hears my prayers, I trust that what I
ask for I will receive, but I also know from personal experience that God doesn't always
give us what we ask for. I wanted my mom to live and she's dead. So what was the point
of praying for her healing if God already knew she
wasn't going to live? What if someone is praying for the opposite thing? Another very repetitive
thought I have is what if someone is praying for the opposite of what I'm praying for? God can't
answer both prayers. For example, if I'm praying for stock to go up and someone else out there is
praying for it to go down, we both have faith that God can bless our investment. What's going to happen?
One person is going to get disappointed. So what's the point of praying?
It seems that if God is going to do what he wants regardless and most prayers don't get answered at least that's how it feels In my life. Why do it? Why should I keep praying?
I share these thoughts with you because I can only imagine at least one person is reading this who feels the same way
So as I journey through my understanding of prayer, I hope it helps you realize you aren't alone in your questioning
What's the point of prayer? Prayer strengthens
your relationship with God. Yes, as we've talked about, it is your direct line to
Him. It is a relationship with Him. You are communicating and talking with Him
and it can help you can help you become closer to Him. Prayer isn't about getting
what you want. It's not a request and grant type of transaction. Prayer is a
part of a much bigger and much more important aspect of life. Your relationship with God.
Communication is key to a successful relationship and your relationship with God is no different.
Prayer is a conversation. It takes talking and listening and listening part is arguably the most important.
Because when you listen to God, you learn His will. And when you know His will, you can pray His will. When you pray His will, He his will he answers your prayers of course here again the Bible tells us to pray praying
relieves anxiety worry and fear there are real benefits to praying even if our
prayers go unanswered Philippians 4 6 through 7 says do not be anxious about
anything but in every situation by prayer and petition with Thanksgiving
present your request to God and the peace of God which transcends all
understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ
Jesus. When we share our anxieties, worries, and fears with God, he takes the
weight of those things off our shoulders and gives us peace in return. So what's
the point of prayer? The encouraging thing in all this is that God does answer
prayers. There are plenty of scripture about that too. The real point of prayer
is strengthening your relationship with God. That way you know what to pray for and
can experience the hope and peace of doing so. Yes. And again, we just thank you
all for continuing to pray for our dad. We cannot thank you enough. We truly
believe that his being with us here today is a miracle and direct result of
all of you that prayed that God would protect and heal him and preserve him. So we just ask that you
continue those prayers. We ask that you would continue to ask for him to be fully restored
so that he would be able to communicate freely again and be able to speak with you all again soon.
Communicate freely again and be able to speak with you all again soon
Comment from nights of the storm hard times make strong men It's part of the process took me a long time to understand and appreciate that. Yes
If you only ever experience a soft luxurious life you will not be a very strong or resilient person
God knows all these things and knows
what is truly best for us. Children want candy all the time. I personally want
candy all the time, but if I were to eat candy all the time it would make me a
very sick and weak individual. Spetro 626, that is incredibly generous. Thank you so
much, Spetro. God bless David's body, voice, and sense, spiritual strength.
Yes, please, as we said, continue to pray for his healing, especially for his voice and his speech.
We really do hope that he can be back with us here soon and be able to sit at this desk and
convey the news to you all and just work for God's glory in future through this
as well. So we thank you all so much for the support. We thank you all for the
prayers. We're gonna take another quick break and we will be right back. So
Do So
So So So You're listening to the David Knight Show.

Star Barkley
And I just want to remind you that in about 20 minutes. We'll be joined by our guest Courtney Turner
She is the host of the Courtney Turner podcast
She's done over 600 episodes and we're going to be talking to her about all kinds of different things. So
Stay tuned for that
But we are going to continue
With I think we're gonna take a brief jaunt through some kind of miscellaneous news items that are
interesting
The first one I have here is
from the Daily Caller
and it is
from the Daily Caller and it is,
DeSantis signs anti-swatting law after conservative influencers targeted by deadly attacks.
As we have seen an uptick in people calling in swat raids
against people they don't like.
And as a general rule, it is conservatives online
that have borne the brunt of this
in the recent weeks and months but this largely started with live streamers in general
people found it funny that they could call in some kind of hostage situation or
whatever causing the SWAT team to roll up on someone's house while they were
live on the air and force them into a sort
of confrontation.
Now this is dangerous.
Of course the SWAT teams do not know what is going on and can lead to lethal confrontations
when the person steps outside.
I'm unaware of any deaths that have resulted from swatting, but it is still a dangerous and very very scary situation
That can happen are many deaths that occur from this
Okay, Florida governor Ron DeSantis signs anti swatting law aimed at combating malicious false reports
Especially those targeting right-leaning influencers driven by ideological motives.
On Wednesday, DeSantis signed HB 279 after multiple recent incidents of
conservative influencers targeted by deadly attacks across the country.
The bill seeks to criminalize false reports leading to emergency responses,
classifying them as a third degree felony for significant injury or permanent harm,
a second degree felony if they result in death.
injury or permanent harm a second degree felony if they result in death.
It also lowers the threshold for felony penalties from four to two false reports and holds offenders accountable for costs of prosecution, investigation
and victim restitution.
I signed an anti-swatting bill a couple of years ago.
It was a strong legislation, but the bill I'm going to sign today is the
strongest in the country, DeSantis said in an interview with American Newsroom.
And again, this is, in my opinion, a good piece of legislation. But the bill I'm gonna sign today is the strongest in the country to Santa said interview the American newsroom and again
This is in my opinion a good piece of legislation. You are
Effectively pointing a gun at someone you are
Sending a very very dangerous group of people to their front door who are keyed up and ready for a dangerous situation
It is a definitely a step in the right direction deaths Deaths from swatting happen fairly frequently, but it's not addressing the root cause of it, which is the extremely militarized police. There was a case a
little while ago about police showing up to the wrong house and then killing someone because they
got the address wrong and they killed
the person at that house and the police were found to have done nothing wrong
they didn't have any consequences for that so yes it should be a felony to
send a bunch of killers to someone's house but they it should be harder than
just making a phone call to do that in the first place
Yes, it is
Fairly easy to get these guys geared up and ready to go kick in someone's front door
That's why if you do some sort of online conservative show
It is probably a good idea to go to your local police department and tell them hey just so you know
I live at this address. I live at this location if you get a call about it
Please don't come in all battle rattle, you know heavy metal rock and roll ready to go
Maybe confirm things first because this has been happening
so if
You do that sort of thing that may be something to look into if you do your own show if you are an online personality
That may be something to look into if you do your own show, if you are an online personality,
get in touch with your local police department and make sure they understand that this is something you may eventually have to deal with.
This is from Reason.
A federal judge says New Mexico cops reasonably killed an innocent man at the wrong house.
U.S. District Judge Matthew Garcia rejected the argument that the officers recklessly created the need to apply deadly force by going to the wrong address.
Didn't know you were going to be covering this exact story.
Yes, around 1130 on Wednesday night in April 2023, three police officers repeatedly knocked on the
door of Robert Dotson's house at 5305 Valley View Avenue in Farmington, New Mexico.
They're responding to report of a possible domestic violence situation, but
they were in the wrong place. They were supposed to be at 5308 Valley View
Avenue, which is on the opposite side of the street. When Dotson, a 52 year old
father of two, came to the door with a gun in his hand, the cops shot and killed
him. That's right, you walk to the door, you hear people loudly banging on it.
You think you are in danger.
You grabbed your gun to make sure that in case something goes wrong,
you have a way of protecting yourself.
The police officers see it, take it as an immediate threat
and gun you down immediately.
There is no wait time.
There is no de-escalation of the situation.
They just immediately start shooting
We have seen that happen time and time again
The police have been militarized and trained in a shoot first curriculum
That is a huge part of the huge part of the problem where they're supposed to protect and serve but really they just protect and serve
the interests of the federal government
Really, they just protect and serve the interests of the federal government.
That response, a federal judge in Mexico ruled last week was reasonable in the circumstances and therefore did not violate Dotson's Fourth Amendment rights.
The officers reasonably, reasonably believed that Dotson posed a severe
risk of imminent harm to them.
US district judge Matthew Garcia writes in response to a federal civil rights
lawsuit that Dotson's family filed in September, 2023, Garcia rejected the plaintiff's argument that the officers, Daniel Estrada, Dylan Goodluck, and Waylon Wasson,
Wasson recklessly created the need to apply deadly force by going to the wrong address.
As they show up at the wrong place, they don't bother to confirm if they're at the correct address.
They bang on your door. They get you out of bed. You are confused.
You are worried.
You grab your firearm just in case, and they gun you down.
The instant they see it.
This is again, because as Lance said of the hyper militarized police that have.
Taken it upon themselves to be judged jury and executioner.
And as I said, we're going to go through quite a few headlines here.
This one is from zero hedge Epstein's lawyer brokered plea deal based on
intelligence ties while not knowing about them.
Just took a guess there.
I suppose after our correspondent asked white house press secretary Caroline
Levitt about pedophile
ring operator Jeffrey Epstein's potential ties to intelligence agencies in the state
of Israel, we followed the exchange up with an article listing some of the evidence behind
that theory.
Of note was this portion.
In 2007, Southern Florida attorney Alex Acosta chose not to press charges against Epstein
despite numerous young girls alleging abuse.
Acosta reportedly did so because he was told against Epstein despite numerous young girls alleging abuse.
Acosta reportedly did so because he was told that Epstein belonged to intelligence, that
it was above his pay grade and to leave it alone.
Epstein's lawyer who brokered the deal with Acosta was Alan Dershowitz.
Good old Alan Dershowitz, the man who would forcibly vaccinate you, would call in the
military, drag you out of your home, and put the shot in your arm."
That Alan Dershowitz, who self-admittedly has been working for the state of Israel for decades, and was key in negotiating the release of the Mossad agents rounded up after 9-11. I wonder what
Mossad had to do with 9-11. I wonder why they rounded up Mossad agents after 9-11. What an interesting turn of events.
You know, truly strange.
Almost makes me wanna dance.
Caught photographing and celebrating
the World Trade Center attacks,
thus the lawyer has a history
of brokering non-prosecution deals on behalf of Mossad.
It appears conservative influencer, Benny Johnson,
may have read that snippet,
because after retweeting the White House exchange
Exchange Johnson interviewed Dershowitz the following day and asked him the infamous asked him about the infamous plea deal
Johnson received an interesting reply Epstein's former lawyer Alan Dershowitz claims Epstein may have been working with Missade says he
He dined with him alongside high ranking Israeli officials.
It's possible Israeli intelligence used him.
He flew to Israel, had lunch with prominent Israelis.
Well.
Well.
Well.
This isn't a shock to most of us.
This has been the foremost theory in many of our minds for a long time.
I mean, there's been lots of evidence of it like look at uh the Maxwell
family has been Mossad assets for generations and uh Gis Lane Maxwell of course is the one
coordinating everything for Jeffrey Epstein. Yes the ties to Mossad have been quite obvious.
So Dersh you brokered the plea deal with Acasta. Yes, the plea deal wherein Akasta was told Epstein belonged to intelligence and that
Akasta should back off.
Yes.
Then you knew Epstein was working for intelligence.
Hmm, I don't know.
It's possible.
We had lunch in Israel once, I think.
Also, did you catch him saying Epstein killed himself or was killed?
Changing tones.
Interestingly, this anything's possible attitude marked a distinct
change in Dershowitz's prior comments on the matter from March of 2023. Epstein didn't work
for Mossad. The Mossad wouldn't hire him, Dershowitz stated emphatically, courtesy of
journalist Kim Iverson. Well, I don't think the Mossad has many scruples or morals at all.
In fact, we have seen over and over again that Israel is somewhat of a haven for pedophiles since they have their right of return
If someone of Jewish descent gets caught
In something to do with pedophilia, they very frequently flee to Israel and are there and left alone
And I mean we even saw the Sackler family after the opioid epidemic
abscond and returned to Israel if memory serves
We have a comment e ePigeon2525. Yeah, that happened in Wichita, Kansas at Whistler, too.
If it's not the same one, I was like, what about the cop that killed him? Bah, no
charges. The real Octo Spook. Hiring low IQ'd cops is not good. Lack of proper
training is not good. Hiring ex-military is just evil along with the SWAT military tactics
Yes, they gear these guys up like they're going to war with the American people because that's what it is
It is a war on the American people. It is a war on your freedoms
They are simply there to be the boot that will land on your throat
So article lists some additional Mossad ties. Lastly when laying out Epstein's ties to Israeli intelligence in the previous piece,
we forgot to add a pretty big exhibit that three sources had independently identified
him as Mossad.
Those are Ari Ben Manashi, a former Israeli intelligence Mossad agent himself, claimed
that Epstein ran a honeypot operation on behalf of Mossad.
Steven Hoffenberg, a former Wall Street mentor
and partner in crime to Epstein, claimed that early on in Epstein's career he
told me that Ghislaine Maxwell was going to be the breakthrough to bring him into
that orbit to be able to be part of the agency in Israel. And that's what did
occur. According to testimony from an anonymous former girlfriend, Epstein used
to brag about being connected to the Mossad and his accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell would hint at it as well
That's right. This was an open secret Jeffrey Epstein
These
These ties were not hidden. They were out in the open. They were continually talked about even by himself
It is not so much speculation as just covering the facts
Of the case at minimum you could potentially just take Jeff good old Jeffy boy at his word
This is another article from zero hedge since we're in the world of spies
since we're in the world of spies. The KGB spy who predicted our future. Of course as I said this is on zero hedge it is authored by Adam Sharp via
daily reckoning.com. My dear friends you think you are in very big trouble
whether you believe it or not you are at war and you may lose this war very soon
together with all your affluence and freedoms unless you start defending yourselves. It was about Yuri Bezhmenov, 1984. In 1970 a Soviet
KGB agent named Yuri Bezhmenov defected to the West. His story is fascinating.
Yuri shared key details on how USSR propaganda and subversion worked. First
we need to discover why Yuri came to the West. Since the 1960s Yuri had been
stationed in India. His cover assignment was as a journalist for the Novosti Press Agency. But his real job as
a KGB agent was to influence policymakers, academics, and journalists. Uri's mission
was to infect these targets with Marxist-Leninist ideology. He planted stories about how benevolent
and fair the USSR was. He charmed diplomats and politicians with vodka and less tasteful
means. He planted stories to discredit the United States. He built relationships with
influential Indians with the goal of shaping the narrative around the Soviet Union. He worked with
students, recruiting future Indian leaders to study in Moscow and St. Petersburg. His job was
to corrupt both individuals and institutions. Eventually, Yuri became disillusioned with his
work. He realized that his efforts were actively harming the Indian people who he had become
quite attached to.
So he decided to defect to the West.
He disguised himself as an American hippie and joined one of the wandering groups of
backpackers which frequented India at the time.
The idea of an American hippie with a heavy Russian accent is pretty funny to me.
It is like bees in love men, you know?
Thry some of these acids.
Yuri slipped his Soviet handlers and made his way to the American embassy.
They granted him asylum and he was debriefed by the CIA and FBI.
To be fair, I never want to interact with hippies.
I have had very few chances, but I have always done what I can to not do it anyway.
In Austin, they still have a presence, and they are still a scourge.
And as such, I can imagine that disguising yourself as one is a good way to avoid interaction
with people.
Well, maybe I'll cover this article more on Monday because it is very interesting. And of course,
again, a Russian American hippie is just tickling my fancy, but our guest is ready.
So we will take a quick break. And when we come back, I of course will be joined by Courtney
Turner of the Courtney Turner podcast. And we're're gonna we're gonna talk about what's on
her mind so stay with us folks we'll be right back The You're listening to the David Knight Show.
Wait a minute, where am I?
Sorry Jefferson, the scoundrels who put America on central bank fiat currency
used our heads on their coins as some sort of trophy.
Despicable. This is outrageous.
Washington, I spent my life fighting centralized power.
Now the Federal Reserve monopoly parades us around on their monopoly money.
Tell me there's some good news to all this.
Well there is a coin they can't control,
one that isn't backed by the Fed, but backed by the Fed-up,
the all-new David Nightshow commemorative coin.
Now patriots can support a show that won't sell out
with a limited edition coin that's sure to sell out quickly.
They say money talks, and this coin has something worth listening to the truth doesn't need inflation only support

Thank you so much for having me it is a pleasure and of course, uh
We were talking during the break and you said you wanted to talk about game b
And of course, we were talking during the break and you said you wanted to talk about game B
versus the singularity and how people are kind of shaping
the narrative and how we're moving forward
towards the future.
So I just like to get you to kind of break down game B
for the listeners and the viewers
since I was fairly unfamiliar with it myself.
So I imagine that it is something that people
could use an explanation on.
Absolutely.
So I know a lot of people are probably a little bit
more familiar with the dark enlightenment currently,
because a lot of those figures are surrounding
the Trump administration.
So that has come to the forefront.
What I have proposed is this thesis
that they're kind of behaving as a dialectic,
but they're both fomenting the technological singularity.
I see the
game be a little more of the appealing to like the left-leaning, a little bit
more spiritual, theosophical camp, and the Dark Enlightenment is obviously the
more authoritarian kind of techno-fascist, gov-corp type of appeal. And you know, the
joke I kind of make is that it doesn't really matter if you have mommy issues or
daddy issues.
They're going to give you a pink or blue comfort blankie to pacify either one of you.
If you have both, they'll give you both.
They'll give you the managed synthesis.
Game B, for those who are not familiar with Game B, they call it a new operating system for civilization.
It is actually not new at all, and it's my contention that the intellectual dark web was an influence operation of sorts for Game B.
And this has been pretty much corroborated in, there's an article on Manifest Nirvana where Andrew Cohen,
he doesn't use the words influence operation, so'll just you know caveat that those are my words, but
he does pretty much say that they laid the groundwork and brought it to the
forefront and they were preparing the intellectual landscape for this
concept of Game B. Now Game B doesn't actually exist yet but it's been in the
works since 2011. In 2011, Jim
Rudd, who was the chairman of the Santa Fe Institute, he had met Jordan Hall at
the Santa Fe Institute as well, and they collaborated to create this concept.
Originally, it was centered around, they had something called the Stanton
meetings in Stanton, Virginia. They brought along people like Brett Weinstein,
who I'm sure a lot of your audience is familiar with, to
start a new political party. They called it the Emancipation Party. So one of the concepts in Game B
is a concept I'm seeing really kind of
sprout up everywhere. It's this trans-political movement.
It's this idea very appealing to people who believe
that we have a two-party illusion,
that they play a dialectical game
between the left and the right.
I'm not denying any of this, by the way.
But the third way, I'm not sure is the better option.
So they're appealing to those who recognize
that the two sides get kind of pitted against each
other like football teams and they're presenting this one nation type of movement and that's
actually one of the parties, one nation party. So it was like Christopher Light had the United
Independent. There's a lot of overlap with all these things, but this was the Emancipation
Party and it didn't really take off mostly the way Jim Rutt explains it. He's kind of the grandfather
of this concept of Game B. But the way he explains it is that the boomers
were all in. He said that the Xers, he could kind of corral, but that the
Millennials loved the platform. It was very much aligned with like a Bernie
Sanders type platform. You
can still see their reform page. They talk about things like a UBI. Both camps do, by
the way, right? The Dark Enlightenment camp talks about that as well, because of course
the robots are going to replace us. And so what are we going to do? We're not going to
have any jobs. So we need a UBI.
That is one thing they both agree on. They both say, oh yes, the robots are coming for
your job, but one of them seems to be a bit more exuberant about it.
And the others seem more thoughtful, like, oh, well, it's going to happen.
It's it's not great, but it's going to happen.
Exactly. That's exactly right.
They tend to be a little bit more.
They claim they're more pessimistic about technology and they're not in favor
of transhumanism.
However, if you look at these group of thinkers, most of them
are in the tech venture startup space. You know, Jim Rudd had something called the evolutionary
software. That's actually why he was brought into the Santa Fe Institute. It's why he was
bringing all these evolutionary biologists into the Stanton meetings back in 2011. He
was also the CEO of Network Solutions. He was on the ground
floor of venture capital fundraising for what became T-Mobile. Jordan Hall is very similar.
He was originally R. Jordan Greenhall. A lot of these characters changed their name. I'm
still not sure why that is. They rebrand concepts names, companies, all that. Seems to change with time.
My favorite, I always joke, is that there was a Nomap
technology, which I'm pretty sure Jordan Hall was involved
with.
He doesn't explicitly say that, but he talks about the
concepts of HoloChains, and it sounds exactly like what
Nomap was.
But one of the originators of Nomap, which became S7
Foundation, changed your name
from Andrea to Tan. I still haven't figured out why Tan, but it cracks me up every time.
Probably just general obfuscation. You know, they like to hide what they're doing and it makes it
harder to keep track of who these people are and what's going on. They can continue to work on
different projects. Just general sneakiness probably.
Yeah, I think it makes it harder to find the trail and I end up spending a lot of time
on the way back machine trying to trace the, you know, like Peter Thiel's project, he has
Prospera, right? A lot of the people are familiar with those Bitcoin cities that he's doing
in Honduras. Well, the subsidiary of that was Vitalia,
and on the website it said, you know,
it's a city where you can make death optional.
However, they've now changed it to Infinita.
But there's overlap here because Jordan Hall
has spoken at the Startup Society Foundations,
which is held, it's a conference that's held at Prospera.
And four years ago, he talked about Game B startups and network states. Recently,
within the past year, he did a much shorter presentation on network states
and this, you know, kind of Game B concept, but he's converted to Christianity a
year ago. He talks about liturgy and how that can be used for essentially for
communitarianism, which I'm pretty sure is not what liturgy is about.
But he also talks about, it was a podcast not too long ago, he talked about how Ephesians
poor teaches us that collective cognition, which again, I'm pretty sure is that that's
not how I read it anyway so
you can make your decision that that wasn't my reading so you so game B they
talk about it as a new operating system for civilization this emancipation party
did not get off the ground because the the Millennials as Jim explains it
loved the platform but they decided they were such anarchists
that the concept of a new political party was an enigma to them.
And so Thor Mueller was part of this Stanton meetings group and told them they should keep
the name Game B for branding purposes.
So they kind of left the Emancipation Party launch concept and they moved forward with this
Game Bee idea. And Jim Rutt has written a manifesto, like a journey to Game Bee.
He wrote it in 2018 but he keeps updating it. And it's a pretty lengthy
document of his prediction. And it's pretty interesting because he says that
2045 is when these proto game bees will come to fruition.
And I think that's just an interesting time mark because what do we have in 2045? We've
got the AI World Society, which is the UN centennial partnership with the Boston Global
Forum based on the book that Michael Dukakis, the former governor of Massachusetts wrote,
and it's called Remaking the World Towards an Age of Global Enlightenment. I
do think that's a nod to the New Age movement when you look at the website,
the semiotics very much indicate so. And this is of course the vision for the
centennial of the UN where an artificial intelligence world society will take
over. Sounds a little like the singularity to me.
What do we have Ray Kurzweil saying?
The singularity is a mirror.
When is it?
It's 2045.
So I thought it was a very interesting marker,
timestamp that Jim Rudd is saying.
2045 is when we're gonna have these proto-bees.
So Game Beat, a lot of them are disciples
of people like Barbara Marks Hubbard.
Barbara Marks Hubbard was a, she visioned herself a futurist.
She was, she led this concept of conscious evolution.
The foundation was funded by the Rockefellers.
Some of her disciples have written a manifesto on Cosm neurotic humanism.
So this would be, yes,
it's the first values and first principles on evolving perennialism, 42 propositions
on cosmocratic humanism. And it's a three, they said it was a synchronistic synergistic
experience. This is how Mark Gaffney describes it. He and Barbara had this vision
all at once. It was just this super sex moment that Barbara talked about. And Mark Gaffney
has Eros Mystery School. They're very explicit. This is not about sex, even though that's
what Eros is. That's the type of love Eros is supposed to be. And of course, super sex
has the word sex literally in the
name. But basically that's not what it's about. It's this radical love affair with the universe.
But Mark Gaffney is one of the authors of this Cosmotic Humanist Manifesto. You can
find it at theofficeofthefuture.com. It's pretty easy to predict the future when you
plan it.
We see that over and over again where they make themselves out to be prophets despite
the fact that they've just been working behind the scenes continually to bring about the
things that-
Architects.
Yeah, they're architects, not visionary.
Or maybe visionary, but not prophets, yeah.
So, it's Mark Gaffney who's
working on his Eros mystery school he's doing cross-promotion with Aubrey
Marcus on this and he talks about how we have to revive the ancient mystery so is
he very much signaling that this is initiation interestingly enough there is
a film called initiation to game. So they very much create,
I keep saying I need to create a glossary because they redefine terms.
This is a theme we see with all of these types of people, right?
Jordan Hall actually has a document on mediums called On Sovereignty, and he explicitly
says sovereignty isn't what we typically think it means. You know, it's not about
nation-states having autonomy and it's not about individuals magically being able to make their own
decisions. So he has redefined the term and that's just one example. So there's Cosmocratic Humanism,
their disciples from Mark's Hubbard is Zach Stein,
who is also involved in the Game Bee film,
the initiation to Game Bee.
He was inducted to the Club of Rome last year.
Another one of the filmmakers for Game Bee is Nora Bateson,
daughter of Gregory Bateson.
And she was, she's also a Club of Rome member.
And then we have Daniel Schmoktenberger he is he's one of the
founders of it's now called quality of life but it was called neuro hacker again
the renaming and his brother James Schmoktenberger has launched this company
but if you look on the website it's something like 60 board members and
everybody and all the game Bee thought leaders are in it
and so are people like all the evolutionary leaders people like Deepak Chopra are on this
you know Neurohacker now quality of life so it's the Danish Schmanktenberger and then who was the
other one oh Kenneth Wilber of course Kenneth Wilber, of course, Kenneth Wilber.
You know, his developments of altitudes
that's based on claregrave spiral dynamics.
It's also based on Abraham Maslow's hierarchy of needs.
Abraham Maslow is another interesting character
that definitely falls in line with all of this
and kind of paves the way.
He had a document called,
Politics Three that was published posthumously
in 1972 and it was published by Robert Cantor and Willis Harmon. Willis Harmon was the president
of the Institute of Noetic Sciences for two decades and he was also one of the lead researchers
and editors on the Changing Images of man document that was done in partnership
with Stanford Research Institute.
And he used his assistant's name, Marilyn Ferguson, to popularize the ideas in that,
and that was called The Aquarian Conspiracy.
So people might be familiar with that book.
And so these are kind of the disciples of that school of thought. Barbara Marx Hubbard was of course also an intellectual disciple of Théoré J. Chardin,
right, who coined this term of the Noosphere.
He wasn't the only one, you know, there was Vernatsky and there were several others,
but he was very much a thought leader in that space of, you know,
outlining what the Noosphere would be.
And you see that theme constantly. So this is what I'm proposing is that we have
these different flavors of something while Game B is presented as being very
decentralized kind of grassroots. But I caution people to remember H.G. Wells
said that the conduit to the world brain would be the
decentralization of information institutions. Of course back then it was
the academic institutions but what are the information institutions today? I
would argue it's the Internet, it's the technology. And in Balaji Shrinivasan's
book on the network state, he actually does say that.
He says he doesn't talk about H.E. Wells,
but he talks about how it's all going to be decentralized.
We'll have a dissolution of geographical nation states
in favor of ideological network state,
but then later they will be re-centralized.
So he even says it in his book that that is the purpose.
But right now, they're very much appealing
under the banner of libertarianism.
You know, I would argue that's what Peter Chiehl's Prospera.
So there's overlap between these two groups, right?
Yeah.
Peter Chiehl's usually thought of as being more of the dark enlightenment camp,
but we're starting to see some convergence between the two.
And I just really keep saying that to me, it looks like you get a buffet,
like a book buffet of poisonous ice cream. You can't see all the poisonous chemicals that are in
there, but you know you might see your favorite flavor. So if you prefer
chocolate, or you prefer strawberry, or vanilla, or whatever flavor that they've
got something there for you. But yeah. Yeah, you can pick your preferred salesman
for this globalist insanity. They have many different faces that they love to market with.
My producer, Lance, has been telling me about this past week
just recently.
They Google released a self-improving AI
that was able to not just improve itself,
but on an algorithm that has been used for decades.
And so there's diminishing returns right now,
but this is a sign of things to come.
This sort of thing is coming down the pipeline
and it's going to be coming faster than people think it is.
So it's also interesting to me
that they're pointing at 2045
and they also have another, you know, other agendas
which are coming, they wanna come to fruition in 2035,
whether it's technological.
And it seems that that 10 year timeline would give them more than enough time to implement
these horrific policies, bring them to fruition and have people get fed up with the current
status quo and be willing to welcome just about anything to get away from what we currently have
with the, you know, way the globalists have managed things.
And of course, they love to think in these long term timelines.
That's one of the areas that they excel in.
They plan things out in terms of decades at minimum. They sit there with,
you know,
in their clouded back rooms and they work together in these very
incestuous sorts of groups where they all tie back into one another.
So it is very interesting to me, as you said,
that is a 2045 where they're looking at the singularity
happening. So I would be, yes, I would be very surprised if it didn't even accelerate
from there, in my opinion.
Yeah, I think it will accelerate from there. I think they're really laying the groundwork
right now, and they're laying it out in so many different ways to appeal to different
people. So another modality is, of course, the financial system, right? and they're laying it out in so many different ways to appeal to different people.
So another modality is of course the financial system, right?
And we're seeing a lot of that discussion currently where people are cheering the fact
that Trump has put his executive order against CBDCs and I'm glad he did, but now he's talking
about things like the stable coins and he's
got the stable act marching forward under the Genius Act.
And what we have is I think it's much harder to sell some of this top down kind of centralized
authoritative financial system like a central bank digital currency.
A lot of people in the West and particularly the United States, I think a lot of people have kind of waken up
to the potential tyranny that could arise as a result.
And so there's, I think, too much pushback to roll that out.
But they can do it under different banners.
And of course, in the Dark Enlightenment variation,
we have things like the GovCorp, right?
A lot of people are very excited about things like Doge.
I'm all in favor of efficiency. I'm all in favor of transparency.
Expose all the bloated apparatus and the bloated spending.
That's all great. However, behind that is this concept of the Dark Enlightenment, which is RAGE.
Retire all government employees. What do they want to replace all those government employees with? However, behind that is this concept of the dark enlightenment which is rage.
Retire all government employees.
What do they want to replace all those government employees with?
They want to replace it with robotics and AI.
They're pretty explicit about this.
This is not maybe hidden plain sight, but it's certainly not hidden.
They have made that pretty clear.
I'm hoping there's opportunities in that window before they're able to roll that out,
and people should absolutely seize
whatever opportunities arise.
But I think they need to be aware
that that's where they're headed.
And I think a AI managed system could be way more tyrannical
than any fascist or communist type of approach.
Not that I'm in favor of any of them,
but I do think the technocratic regime that they're trying to roll out is very, very
dystopian.
But now they're trying to, for people who are not in favor of a GovCorp type of situation,
which by the way, I think also people don't necessarily recognize that, or if they do,
I'd like to just highlight
the fact that this GovCorp is privatizing everything.
So I think a lot of people champion that because they think that that's going to be more freedom
and they have this notion of it being capitalistic in a free market sense, but it's much more
GovCorp, not so much free market where the little guy can have a startup business.
That's not what they're talking about here.
People like Curtis Yarvin who helmed this dark enlightenment movement have even said
America needs to get over their fear of the dictatorship because that is the best system.
I might be paraphrasing, but basically what he said.
So these these figures are they fashion themselves philosophers,
although I have read their material, this is a, you know, it's not any great
philosophy and it's very poor writing, quite honestly. But somehow the
intellectuals eat it up, I'm not sure how, but maybe in a soundbite society it's
very appealing to have these long bloviations about our dystopian
future. But in the more game B, with the libertarian type of umbrella, they're advertising tokenized
– it's still a gamified tokenized economy, but it's more under the banner of something like communitarianism. They keep mentioning West's book on scales
and Dunbar. They have this vision that you have to have communities that are less than
150 people because they say that more than 150 people you need bureaucracy. And so with these smaller communities you could have, theoretically,
you could be devoid of bureaucracy. However, what's going to replace that bureaucracy is
the same thing as the GovCorp. It's going to be done under Jordan Hall talks about hyperstructure
and he says that Bitcoin would be an example of hyper structure, but he's really talking about his blockchain and it he says even more than Bitcoin
He's an advocate of you know proof of work
Types of blockchain so things like a quai network is something. He's a big proponent of
But it's still this concept of having things like
tokenized gamified economy
where things are where assets can be fractionalized.
People think that sounds great.
They're marketing it and selling it to you as, oh, so I could have a partial ownership
of something if I can't fully afford to own a piece of real estate or a piece of art or
whatever that asset might be.
They're talking about tangible assets.
You would like to think, the example
I use, you'd like to think that family members and loved ones could share assets. But unfortunately,
this is why estate lawyers exist, because it doesn't always quite work out that way.
But that's what they're talking about. They're talking about a tokenized economy. And that could be just as draconian and tyrannical. You still need an ID to enter a digital ID.
You still have some sort of a social credit system within that community.
I'm sure that if you do something that they decide that doesn't,
they forget if the community doesn't like it, but it did not comply with the smart contract that has been instituted, right? Because it's
a hyper structure. They want to take people out of the equation. And so now you're going
to have these smart contracts who are – they're already programmed, they're already coded.
You can't negotiate with a smart contract.
Yes.
I'm just trying to point out that they're really presenting things in these different
flavors and it's not to say that everybody involved is like a bad, evil, maniacal person
trying to control the world.
I think some of them are just utopianist.
They have a very romanticized vision of the future and they think they're smarter than
everybody else.
Of course, they're the ones to, or in some cases, they're more spiritually evolved, right? Because they believe in the spiritual eugenics as well.
I know no one has gotten it right yet,
but we're going to be the ones that do it.
We're more advanced.
We've come a long way, which is continually
what these people tell themselves every single time.
But yeah, what you were saying about getting people out
of bureaucracy, while it does sound like a good idea,
at least with people, there's
a chance for mercy. You can potentially appeal to their humanity. When you get a computer
involved with it, there is no chance for that. It is simply numbers. It will look at what
is said and done in the law, and it will just apply that ruthlessly. There will be no chance
for it to have mercy upon you."
That's right. Yeah, that's exactly right. And you also have to consider that any kind of an algorithm has been programmed, who's doing the programming? It's only going to magnify
whatever that person's worldview, biases, or intention was.
And so even if they have the best of intentions,
it may not align with yours.
So, yeah.
We see that over and over again,
just how rapidly the AIs have been shoved full of biases
from the people who are coding them,
programmed to adhere to whatever the prominent worldview of the moment is.
And just got to comment another one from our producer.
The stablecoin that he's presenting them is just CBDC under a different name.
It is a public-private partnership with this cronies.
Yes, they are already positioning themselves to be the first ones to make a killing off of it if it goes through.
They want to make sure that they always make their money first.
Yeah, yeah, that's exactly right. So I, yeah, I am very concerned just because I feel like they
they keep finding new ways to appeal to, you know, the resistance. And so I'm just trying
to sound the alarm so that people are not, you know, it's not
for me to, you may think that this is a utopia and that is for you to decide, that is not
for me to decide.
But you should be aware that they do believe in things like collective intelligence.
And that is the, so, you know, when you look at the game B, it's kind of, they're talking
about a collective intelligence created through consensus.
And I would argue kind of brainwashing,
there's actually Jake Ruse,
when he's talking about the game B,
you know, initiation to game B film,
they have these, they call it dialogos.
So I think dialogue has drifted very far away from,
you know, what used to be the Socratic method and dialects.
And now I think, especially since the Delphi method,
it has come to me in consensus, a built consensus building.
In Game B, they call it sense-making, and they're always having these various
dialogues. But in this one, Jake Ruse was talking about how
he's working on a Disney project, and he's going to have to Trojan horse
Game B through this project
So essentially, you know inculcate through the culture
aka socially engineer the masses, you know brainwash them
With this concept so it's they're presenting it is bottom-up. Whereas the dark enlightenment people are presenting it as you know, more of an outright
technocracy, youocracy in line with like
Elon Musk's grandfather, Josh Hadelman,
was a leader of Technocracy Inc. in Canada
from 1936 to 1943 and run by Howard Scott initially.
So this concept that you build a tech-mate,
but it's still both of them have this idea
of kind of power blocks.
One is more of a grassroots bottom up
that is being operated through network states in the cloud
and then the other through these power block regions,
technates that are very similar to the love of Rome's
globalized adaptive regionalization map.
It's also very similar to that.
But again, it's all still going to be run through what?
Technology and the internet.
And I'll just say one more thing.
I think you want to say something.
But the evolutionary leader, Bruce Lifton, who I believe
he was on the quality of site as well,
but he talks about how we evolve.
And he says we start off
as these amoeba, he uses a spiral analogy, which is not a coincidence, this is spiral
metaphysics versus like a plumb line, sorry, plumb line metaphysics, right, where we have
reality anchored and I know a lot of people are probably familiar with the spiral analogy
from Hegelian dialectics.
I'm actually in the process of writing a book on Hegel's dialectic.
It's called Hegel's Dialectic and Gnostic Jacob's Letter and Machinery of Control.
And I have a little preview on my sub-stack for anybody who's interested in getting a
sneak peek at what I've got so far.
But he talks about it and he uses the imagery of the spiral and he talks about
how we start as amoeba and that amoeba are so intelligent because of their, the membrane,
that's where they get their intelligence from and then we evolve into these multicellular
organisms and they're more intelligent because they have more membrane and then he says humans
are complex multicellular organisms and we're so intelligent because we have more membrane. And then he says humans are complex multicellular organisms
and we're so intelligent because we have so much
surface area of membrane.
And then he says we have this potential to co-create.
Right, this is a term you hear from a lot of these
conscious evolutionary figures like Barbara Marx Hubbard.
This idea that we are going to co-create
is a very gnostic type of concept. But we're to co-create and he says that we can, we'll either go extinct
or we can co-create and we'll evolve into a super organism of humanity and that the
membrane for that organism is going to be what?
The internet.
So again, we have this NoSphere concept pointing us towards the technological similarity.
Yes, just it's interesting the way they put that the way they act is if technology is a democratizing force, whereas
Technology is these types of technologies are incredibly expensive
AIs are enormously expensive to create and enormously expensive to run on a large scale
So it seems to me that it is inherently undemocratic and that it gives these, you know, these multi-billionaires that believe in this a huge leg up and selling it as democratic seems slightly disingenuous
to me as if it's just kind of a sales pitch.
It's like, oh, it's democratic.
But realistically, how are you as an individual or a small group of, you know, 100 or 125
people going to compete with someone like Elon Musk, who has multiple billions of dollars to, you know, run these sorts of things and utilize them to their full potential?
It seems even less democratic than other, you know, than normal when it comes to how much money can influence this type of society.
normal when it comes to how much money can influence this type of society. Yeah, and with this trans political movement, they talk about using, you know, AI and they
using technology for voting, which is and putting everything up on the blockchain.
So you've got like the quadratic voting, ranked choice voting, they're very different,
various different, you know, ranked choice voting. They're very different, various different offerings of this.
There's the conviction voting,
but and Jim Rudd talks about liquid democracy.
Barbara Marks Hubbard talks about synergistic democracy.
But all of this is couched in language
that makes you think that it's a very direct democracy,
which by the way, I'm not in favor of anyway.
That's why our founding fathers created a republic, not a democracy, because they knew
that a democracy meant mob rule.
So it ends up being quite tyrannical and barbaric in many cases, as they saw in ancient Greece,
and that is why they did not craft a direct democracy.
However, they do talk about it being much more direct, but you're
using AI and you're using technology. Which one do we think that there's going to be no
kinds of corruption involved there? No manipulation? What do we see with the voting systems now?
We've already had those kinds of challenges. But also, you're having
AI, it's really AI replacing government. That's really what you're seeing. And they talk about
this in the AI world society. They say how all governments are going to be supplanted
and replaced through AI. And so in this case, they're just talking about it in a more again
grassroots like you're gonna opt into this system but we already have this we
have in several states they're doing these summits and I might say believe
it said this month and it is on a digital governance and there's already a
chat GPT gov which you have to be a government official to enter the portal and
they're doing these symposiums on digital governance and
how we're going to use AI and
digital
Yeah governing so
Well, yeah
It just gets scarier and scarier as they move to integrate these things And we've seen just the budget bill that they're working on passing would prevent
states from regulating AI themselves.
It would be completely up to the auspices of the federal government.
They would be able to do whatever they wanted and the state would have no say in
it. One of our listeners was just pointing that out.
We talked about that yesterday, but it's just, again, incredibly scary that they
are continuing to centralize this stuff and
You know, just was it the FDA is moving to utilize AI to approve drugs now
I believe I believe we covered that last week
So it is just they are moving at a very very rapid pace towards this
again
Push to incorporate AI into all aspects of the government.
As you're pointing out, they then want to phase out the human component, which on
the surface, as we said, sounds good because, you know, less bureaucracy, you
think that's a good thing. You know, we're spending less on people, we're
spending less on salaries, but we are then completely at the mercy of these algorithms.
Yes, exactly.
And the algorithms are using cybernetic feedback loops, right?
That's what they're they're they're busy data mining.
And we see this in every sector possible.
Right. We see this with the education system.
We see this with just consumerism.
That's usually how it's marketed that you know
They're just information to understand your behavior so they can give you the best ads that you want to see
Just the perfect widget for you. That's all it's about. You know, just making sure that you can fulfill your consumerist dreams
And we've
Right. Except the, you know, people. Oh no, just got a comment again from the reducer.
DOGUE is minimizing government but maximizing governance, which is a good way to put it.
They were reducing the number of people but maximizing their ability to parse the information
that they skim from your life.
Yeah. It's GOV Corp. So they're really privatizing control. No longer in the government,
which you know, outside of the classified kind of black ops types of government operations,
things are actually fairly transparent under the government, right? You can go and look
up what they're doing. Theoretically, you should be able to address your grievances
as well. And, you know, they're that. And that's at least how it's structured.
I'm not saying it's always how it functions, but it is how it's structured.
A private company does not have to disclose anything.
So that's really what they're doing.
They're taking it all out of the government and trying to put it into Silicon Valley and
where they will have the control and into these
mega corporations.
So I think something for people to consider is what happened in 2020 where, you know,
if you went into your mom and pop shop, oftentimes if you didn't like some of the mandates, you
could negotiate with the owner, right?
They might have, they might be aligned with your views.
They may not, but they would make a decision and sometimes you would have some leeway there.
But if you went into a big box store, they were subject to these incentives that were really
being coming down the pike from things like the World Economic Forum, the UN, aligning with ESG
and the 17th Sustainable Development Goals.
And that's actually, we have these B Corps, which, you know, Game B is very much a proponent
of.
There's already 6,000 B Corps and some of them, they're big companies that you'll
be very familiar with, things like Ben & Jerry's or Patagonia.
Ben & Jerry's famously said that they are not an ice cream company. They're
an activism organization. They happen to sell ice cream. But of course, of course they have
to be an activism organization so that they can meet their ESG adapters so that they can
get high scores in their on their B Corp rating. So we that's that that's the problem is that
it's going to be incentivized for these big corporations who are tied in with the central banks, the IMF, and these NGOs like the World Economic Forum, the UN.
Ben and Jerry's is an absurd example of how they implement.
Every single one of these companies has been brought on board with implementing these ideas in every single aspect of your life and pushing them on you.
I mean, the gaming industry is a tremendous example of that.
I know most of our audience probably doesn't play video games, but still
the gaming industry is overrun by people that are obsessed with pushing
the current ideology
and implementing them into games
and putting that in front of a younger and younger audience
to push that on them and to make it their model
for the world.
Cause when you get it in front of a person at a young age
before they're able to critically think,
it embeds itself in there.
It bypasses critical thinking since they didn't have it at the time and it makes it very,
very hard to dislodge because since they didn't reason themselves into that position, it's
very hard to reason them out of it.
And I have a comment here from one of our listeners.
They want to know about the Internet of bio-nano things.
So the AI.I.
World Society talks about the nano bio things and they say how it will all be
connected through the 6G technology.
And of course, the internet nano bio things is operating through humans.
It's being powered by humans.
The University of Amherst, Massachusetts, disclosed their study on 6G technology and how it is
powered through humans.
I did a recent sub-stack, it was called the Past Mass Surveillance and Technological Singularity,
and I outlined, and I'm sure I've left out some, but I do go through a lot of them.
There's the Internet of Things, Internet of Bodies, Internet of Nano- nano bio things, right, this is the nano
technology, and just to stop on that for a second, people like Charles Lieber were
very instrumental in this type of research, and you know when you all know
Harari talks about how 2020 is the year when surveillance goes under the skin, I
think he meant it, And we have Charles Lieber
was working on injectable technology that would create self-assembling nanobot technology.
And people often, you know, forget that he was partnered with Elon Musk on the Neuralink.
He patented the Neuralace, which is that self-assembling mesh technology.
So that's the Internet of Nanobio things. I think it's very concerning.
Unfortunately, we don't know as much about it as one would like because I
think a lot of it is under classified documentation. That doesn't mean that
it's not real. We have a lot of white papers that indicate there is a lot of
research and development in this field. We also have Albert Barella, who, Pfizer, who is talking
about how you can have, you know, medication that you would take and it
would have a sensor to know if you needed to take your next dose and it
could, you know, alert you to this. Apparently, Ambelify already uses
this technology, which is a pretty common
drug so people can look that up, don't take my word for it, but I did do some research
and that is what I found. Then we have, of course, the Internet of Behaviors and there's
a white paper document on this and Internet of Behaviors is a little bit concerning because
this is kind of the soft technology of brainwashing and programming and mind control.
You know, of course the internet and nanobio things could potentially with
the brain interface be more of a hardware kind of control.
The internet of everything.
This is where they connect a network connecting people, processes, data, and
things to enable, enable, sorry, intelligent, I put that in air quotes,
decision-making interaction. You have to understand what intelligent decision-making
means, it means like automated AI-driven,
internet medical things, and of course,
this is, they were doing a lot of research on this in 2020
with the wireless body area networks in the hospitals
and whatnot.
But this is even more overtly things like pacemakers.
Typically the patient is aware that there's an external interface.
And it's usually couched as being for your own good.
And in some cases it is.
In some cases it really does help people and it's great that they can be alerted if you
know something were to go awry.
In other cases we have to wonder what if they can control, right?
What did the Technocrat magazine of 1937, they said that technocracy, the definition
is social engineering.
They also said that the purpose of surveilling is to control.
So we have to consider those cybernetic feedback loops and the role that they play. Then we also have the Internet of Industrial Things, which is industrial
settings that are connecting machines and systems to optimize manufacturing and operation.
I think this will play a huge role in robotics. And we have the Internet of Smart Cities.
Now the Internet of Smart Cities very much ties to this concept, you know, when I'm
talking about the Dark Enlightenment versus Game B. We have a whole branch and that's
really what this article is about was we have all these different types of smart cities.
Of course the AI World Society talks about how we'll have these C40 cities which are
all under the guise of saving the planet because
we have a climate crisis that we have to address. So this of course means we can't breathe because
carbon dioxide is a menace to the society, although anybody who took third grade science
knows that it's literally the life molecule, but I digress. The Club of Rome actually admitted it
was propaganda. I have this quote in my book.
They admitted that it was propaganda because their limits to growth document, this is where
they say that humans are the enemy of humanity because we were polluting the environment.
In their global revolution document in 1992, they say that they had to get a common enemy
for man to rally behind.
And so, of course, they decided that who is the enemy of humanity?
It's man himself, of course, because we are the polluter.
They pretty much admitted that they lied so that they could get us on board with this agenda.
So, and that's, but the Internet of Smart Cities, the C40 cities, of course, the 15-minute cities.
A lot of people are familiar with those. there's a couched-in convenience, you'll have everything within
15 minutes and you can walk to, you know, and there's some merit to that, but of
course the part they leave out is all the technology that interconnects and
makes everything interoperable. But then we have like freedom cities, which you
know sound wonderful, who doesn't want a freedom city? I want to live in freedom city.
Until you realize it's just another name
for a 15 minute or a smart city.
They love naming it the exact opposite
of what it actually is.
They gave us this, the Patriot Act.
Oh, it sounds wonderful.
I'm a patriot.
I love my country.
And then you actually look at the Patriot Act
as like, oh, this is the most unpatriotic thing
that's ever been put into Congress.
It's like, oh, of is the most unpatriotic thing that's ever been put into Congress. You know, it's like, oh, of course they love doing that.
It's just this easy, easy slap on the guess.
It's literally our wellian doublespeak.
Yeah.
Uh, yeah.
So we have the freedom cities and that is very much more of a dark
enlightenment kind of concept, right?
These, uh, because it's all about the deregulations.
So this is very appealing.
It's like what Prospera is, essentially.
It's very appealing to these, you know, tech oligarchs who want everything deregulated
so they can, you know, make their rules.
And it's very conducive to their initiatives.
And then you have in game B something called the Civium
project, which also sounds great. It's very utopian in my opinion, but
unfortunately utopia means nowhere and usually results in dystopia when
implemented. But it's this idea that we, you know, we move out of the cities and
we, it's a, they very much glorify like the indigenous populations and they
forget that it was kind of barbaric
and that it actually was quite competitive because game B is supposed to be non-rivalrous
unlike game A. I call it the age of Aquarius of technology.
They want us to move into the collective, collaborative, cooperative and they say game
A is just too exploitive and extractive, but they're going to take the technology and extract that from game A into game B.
And so in these civium projects, they move out of the city and it is glorifying more
backward kind of a lifestyle, communal again.
However, you have the technology from game A that connects everything.
So you're in a networked state, although you may be living more in connection with the land and with
people, which you know sounds like the best of both worlds, except that you know
who's controlling it and even if it's AI controlling it, how much freedom does
that really afford you? So that would be the Internet of Smart Cities and of
course the AI World Society, they talk about how Ukraine is going to be the central node
for all of these various smart cities and they've done several symposiums
talking about how we have to rebuild Ukraine because it's a central hub for
all of this so that's why we have to give them so much money and you know
build them back because they've been torn down so you have to build back
better. You can go look on their website they've been torn down, so you have to bill back better.
You can go look on their website.
They have all these symposiums.
You can watch that for yourself at AIWorldSociety.net or the Boston Global Forum has a bunch of
videos on it as well.
And then there's the Internet of wearable things.
This I'm sure a lot of people are familiar with already, very much marketed to the health fitness crowd, you know, with the
smart watches and the, you know, the rings and, you know, all of the heart rate kind
of tracking.
HeartMath, which was actually one of Barbara Marks Hubbard's projects that was large funding
from the Rockefeller Foundation.
And you know, some of it's great, like you with meditation and you know that that part's pretty innocuous but they talk about
creating global coherence through heart resonance and now they're talking about
heart-brain coherence so that that's got its own connotation there which you know
since sounds to me like they're trying to use technology to foment this you
know global consciousness noosphere concept.
And then we have the Internet of robotic things, which I think will be much more
pervasive in the next coming years.
I'm sure I've left other things out, but yeah, I don't know if that answers their question.
That was fantastic.
You covered so much ground there, but that's part of the way they get these things through is they smother you
with the sheer amount of their projects. It makes it very very hard to keep track of what's going on since there's just
you know tens,
hundreds, thousands of different ways they are working to advance this agenda all at once with numerous little people in different
organizations all over the place. And as you were saying they're talking talking about this as a, oh, this is going to be a
non-competitive world order.
We're all going to be very peaceful.
We're all going to just, you know, be laissez faire about everything.
Anytime anyone starts selling you a sort of utopian worldview, I begin to question
it because it seems they themselves don't understand human nature or hoping you
don't understand human nature and that we are inherently,
you know, we prioritize ourselves and, you know, our family first as a general rule. We are selfish
by nature. We tend to always go after our needs first and if someone else gets in the way of that,
we see them as the enemy, the other, and we will do what we can to get what we need, and if that impacts
someone else negatively, that's a secondary concern. And people that tell you that we can get past that,
again, they just don't understand human nature. As a Christian myself, I believe that is part of our,
you know, it's built into us. It is down deep. You cannot get past that that is just part of who we are and
These all these rival. Yes all
Original sin all these utopian ideals look past that and pretend that it is just something we can you know
Therapize away or however you want to get rid of it
They imagine there's a way that we can make ourselves all just these good little care bears and we're going to live in this utopia
Where we all
routinely, you know, everyone looks out for each other all the time and they never have their own self-interest first
Which just does not exist. It does not happen
And so any utopian ideology is inherently doomed to fail in my opinion. And so it's always scary to me. I
Couldn't agree more.
And if you think about the UN,
their exoteric veneer is all about peacemaking, right?
That's their, but if you really scratch
beneath the surface as to why,
there was a great video,
it was posted about 10 years ago,
it might be older than that,
but it's still on YouTube with Robert Mueller,
who was the secretary general for the UN for four decades. He's the one who created the World Corps curriculum
for education that has become Common Corps, or as Charlotte Ijebite loves to call it,
Communist Corps in the United States. And this was predicated on the works of Alice
Bailey and her book, Education in the New Age. But he talks about how we have to have peace. And when you really listen
to what he's saying, this is why you can't have free will. I mean, he doesn't say the free will
explicitly, but this is what he's talking about. This is why we have to have the consensus. This is
why we have to have the no sphere and collective intelligence. Because if we have free will,
your version of a utopia, even though utopia means nowhere and usually results in dystopia when it
attempted to be implemented. But let's just say your fantasy,
your version of utopia might look radically different from mine.
Doesn't make you a better or worse person, but we're different.
We have different ideas. We have different brain chemistry.
We have different makeup. We have different circumstances, you know,
all of these different variables that make us the, you know, beautiful uniqueness of each
human being, but our utopias could be radically different and therefore they are intrinsically
in competition.
And this is why we have competition.
This is why we don't always agree and sometimes those disagreements manifest in, you know,
grave tensions. And so the umbrella of peace, while it sounds beautiful and who doesn't want a peaceful
world, in order to create that and to achieve that, they have to eradicate the free will
of humanity.
And when they talk about, you know, how this will liberate us and create freedom, I think
this is really very much at the core of it.
It's a spiritual dichotomy
because you have free will as I believe was endowed by our Creator, this
beautiful gift, and it's not an end. It's a vehicle. It's a vehicle to pursue virtue
and morality. So we have the choice, but it's not an end. And the way I think
a lot of these occultist, esoteric types of groups that may be couched
in more quote unquote rational philosophy, see it, they talk about it's really a collective
end.
So think about things like, you know, Aleister Crowley's Thelema where he talks about do
without wilt, this radical freedom to do without wilt or Nietzschean will to power or Hegel
who talks about the spirit of the Geist, right,
the world spirit and how this is progressing towards the rational absolute. This is so
that we can have the state which is equivalent to God in his view. But he says humans can
achieve no freedom at all without complete subservience to the state which is God. So
there's just a couple of examples. I see this theme constantly and it's very misleading
because people like J.R. Deschardin talk about freedom.
Barbara Marthoever talks about radical freedom,
but they don't mean the same thing as free will.
And so I think that's, you know, but it's all under,
you know, whether it's the UN or whoever it is
that's trying to put it under the banner of peace,
I think we need to really understand what are the implications of that.
Yes.
It sounds great.
Yeah, that is a very good point. Again, it could be a pax romana sort of ordeal where they come
in and they make peace by wiping out everyone that's making trouble in their eyes. And that
seems to be the way these globalists always operate. If you're going to cause them problems,
they want you out of the way.
Well, Courtney, we've just got a few minutes left.
I have thoroughly enjoyed our conversation.
You have given us so much to think about.
And I encourage everyone to go check out your website,
CourtneyTurner.com.
And of course, you're on Substack.
Is that also under Courtney Turner?
Yes.
Fantastic.
Yes.
It's Courtney Turner.
So it's Courtney's Substack, but spelled like Courtney.
Yes, it is Courtney spelled Courtney.
See you are T.N.A.
Why Courtney Turner in these last few minutes, I would just like to ask you
if there's anything else you want to get out there and tell people again
where they can find you. Courtney Turner.com.
Courtney Turner on substack.
Is there anywhere else people should look for you?
I know you've got a podcast, the Courtney Turner podcast.
What else should they be looking forward to from you? I know you said you have a book coming out.
I do. So I actually just released, it's on my Substack. So for my paid subscribers, it'll be there.
They always get the early access and they get it ad free.
That's just a little treat for them, but I
just did a symposium. It's part of my Cognitive Liberty series with Patrick Wood and Ian
Davis and David Hughes on technocracy and resisting technocracy, hopefully, so we can
preserve the free will of humanity. So that is up on my sub stack. It will be available
for free on all of my other platforms. Rumble is the big video platform among all the audio ones as well
I do post on YouTube, but it's really just a preview because I'm on my fifth channel. They don't love me that much unfortunately
They were not the best of friends. So
So I just put a preview on there that goes straight from my sub stack and so it is already up on there
So I encourage people to check that out because it's fantastic they are
brilliant minds really doing great work my sub stack is a way that you can
support the work I'm doing and then yes I have a book I'm hoping it will be
launched this summer I will most likely be self publishing it but it is on Hegel's
Hegelian dialectics I call it a Gnostic Jacob's Ladder and a Machinery of Control. I go through the ancient mystery
religions and how they paved the way for Hegel's dialectic and talk about why it
is relevant today because I think typically people are caught in these
dialectical traps and you know they can I say the wizard circle which is not my
term I mean they they use that term.
And I think it's really, they are, they kind of cast these spells through words and through
language.
But what people need to understand is, and you read the works of people like Alice Bailey,
they explicitly say that, that they have one exoteric message for the masses.
And then what they're really doing is initiating people into their esoteric vernacular.
So it's for people to understand that they do speak in this Isopian type of language,
and that if we can recognize the games that we're playing, then hopefully the spell will
be broken and we can step outside the wizard circle and preserve the free will of humanity
is the hope that we because I
think they seem very bent on you know eradicating that so yeah my sub stack
Courtney Turner sub stack and my website are great ways that you can find me and
I'm usually accessible on all the social media platforms and my website as well

Hey travis, do you plan on having the gaming stream later this evening?
I don't think i'm able to do it this week. We still haven't fully gotten anything worked out
It's just been kind of in the ether that we've been discussing
It is something I want to look into not necessarily just gaming but maybe just sort of a more casual hangout discussion of
Not necessarily just gaming but maybe just sort of a more casual hangout discussion of whatever is on my mind at the time So not as focused on the news maybe about movies or TV or just ranting about things that have
Annoyed me during the week perhaps but yeah doing some gaming would be fun
So if you guys have any strong feelings on that, I'll again,
I'll pull you guys again on Monday and we'll get some more ideas. But that is
what I'm thinking. Just a chilled hangout sort of stream. But I want to make sure
that it is something that I could still provide you guys with some insights on
things with, or at least you guys could have fun with so as
We close the show out today. We've got a minute left I again just want to thank you all so much for all the prayers and ask that you continue to pray for our dad

Wait a minute, where am I? Have a good weekend. fighting centralized power. Now the Federal Reserve monopoly parades us around on their
monopoly money. Tell me there's some good news to all this.
Well, there is a coin they can't control, one that isn't backed by the Fed, but backed
by the Fed Up, the all-new David Night Show commemorative coin. Now, patriots can support
a show that won't sell out with a limited edition coin that's sure to sell out quickly.
They say money talks, and this coin has something worth listening to.
The truth doesn't need inflation, only support.
