I'm all right. You know, very sad about everything that's going on.

Been at this a lot of years, 45 years, and I've never saw things. You're talking about, you know, the Trends Journal. And again, everybody, you know, we're doing everything we can to support you. So you support us. Or else you could do this You could spend five dollars to get

the Sunday New York Times they call themselves the paper record I call themselves the toilet paper record look at this stupid big picture Look at this stupid yeah here, you ready? Business section. Brett Cooper wants to steer pop culture rightward. Look at the way this clown is dressed. Look at him, what do you do? Does he come out of the mine?

You know, he's got sneakers and a crummy. Women used to dress up beautiful at one time. Now they wear baseball hats and the guys wear them backwards so they can put their catch-his-mask on. I look at the decline of America. Here, you ready? When your child becomes your safety net. This is the business section. What are you telling me this crap for? Here, look at this. You can't make this stuff up. Look, look, look, look, $5, $5 for this stupid, not one, not one trend worthy business article in here. It's so sad. Journalism is dead.

And you know why journalism is dead? This is a t-shirt I did back in 1992 when Bill Clinton was running for office. Beware of Slick Willie. This is a little slime ball. Oh, I got to be careful. I may get sued for calling him a slime ball. You know what just happened? That guy, that little cut zone Macron, they're suing this woman.

They're saying that his wife is a man. You imagine getting sued for that? So don't call Macron's old lady a drag queen and don't claim that Macron has a pecker the size of his pencil if he has one or else you get sued. So don't say that. Be careful. So going back to Slick Willie, this is the guy that gave us the Federal Communications Act in 1996 that deregulated the communications industry. Back in the day, like if you owned a television station or something, you couldn't own a TV TV station in the same, a newspaper or something like that. They had very, a lot of restrictions.

There were thousands of independent radio stations, TV stations and newspapers. Now six companies control 92% of America's media. And all they are are prostitutes, media whores that get paid to put out by the corporate pimps and government whore masters. So we're giving you in the Trends Journal what nobody else has given you in the world. Was it? This week's over 200 pages. From high tech science to AI, you talk about AI, whole sections. Technocracy, geopolitics, economics, on and on.

And you read what you want. That's a magazine. And you can read it online. You can listen to it. You can print out the PDF, whatever. And you were talking before about AI. One of our trends is dot-com buzz 2.0. China's going to lead the world in AI.

Again, let's go in tracking trends, you make connections between different fields. We say opportunity misses those who view the world through the eyes of their profession. So if you're a doctor and you know anything about health, but you don't know anything about the economy, if you're an economist and you know anything about geopolitics, grow up. Go back to Bill Clinton. In the year 2000, 10% of Chinese 18-year-olds went to college. 10%.

Today, nearly 70%. What does that have to do with AI? Everything. everything. Everybody in the world, particularly young people, are high-tech AI addicted. It's their life. They get all these kids going to college. In America, what do you go to college for? You get your degree in gender studies? No, I got one in art history, all right? They're not doing that over there. They're getting degrees in engineering and high tech, on and on and on. Let's go back to January this year.

DeepSeek comes out. DeepSeek? What's a DeepSeek? Oh, a Chinese company that didn't cost $100 million to make their AI. It only cost them $6 million. Oh, and they don't need those big Nvidia chips. They use small ones. Trends are born, they grow, they mature, reach old age and die.

You don't invest in the one that's just born. And that's what it is. It's only three years old, 2022. So they've over invested in the IP wannabes and a lot of the tech giants in AI in America. What Trump is doing with AI, yeah, fine. But no, we're not going to lead the world in it. China is. Just like, again, go back to slick Willy, brought him into the World Trade Organization.

Remember, in 2000, 10%, they come in officially two weeks after 9-11, and now Chinese economy is booming. Let's go back to what it looked like before Bill Clinton brought them into the World Trade Organization. The GDP from 1970 to 2000 was like that. They come in in 2001, it shoots straight up. Who's the world leader in electric vehicles? Oh, China. Who's the biggest exporter of products? Oh, China. Let's go back to 2000. It wasn't like that. Why? Because they didn't have the high tech manufacturing or the heavy industry manufacturing that the Western nations brought them when they went to China to get cheap labor so they could make more money. Oh, this is a slick

willy they gave us NAFTA. Get them jobs out of America. Bring them down to Mexico. You get cheap labor. You make more money, all right? Look up, see how much Bill Clinton is worth. Him and Hitler. Look it up. 100, what, 20, 130 million dollars? What are you kidding me? How about payoffs?

How about he BS's like Goldman Sachs and he gets like $300,000 for an hour's tour? These are all payoffs. All payoffs. Yeah. What on earth could Bill Clinton know enough about to warrant that kind of payment? What does Bill Clinton know about anything that you can bring him in and have him speak

on besides potentially sexually assaulting women? What could he teach anyone about anything? And then there's the fact with China, you know, we're being hamstrung by all this green nonsense. Oh, we want windmills. We want solar power. And they get to keep their coal power plants. They get to build more coal power plants. They get to build whatever kind of energy generation they want. So we're continually shoved down and China gets to maintain and build more infrastructure and better infrastructure and there's look at the look at the rail system in this country it's and track how about am crap mm-hmm it's a third world rail system I

don't know how it is where you live potholes everywhere everywhere go into New York City you need a tank there's a potholes everywhere The country's rotting in front of our eyes and we got a bunch of rotten pieces of crap running it Oh, how about how about Obama? How about the Nobel Peace of Crap prize winner? Oh, how did he get there? I was like I Pritzker or that big fat slob from the Hyatt family that brought him in. Look how much. Look how much a little nothing of a clown boy Obama's worth. A little nothing. Oh, and Pritzker's sister was in all they did to Clinton things and the Obama things. Yeah. It's one big club and you ain't in it as George Collins said

Yeah, it's this continual back and forth this I've referred to it as this, you know an Ouroboros it just feeds back into itself over and over these people They get into government they sell favors They help others get into government who sell favors and on and on and back and forth it goes. You know, people are angry at me because I get angry. Why, how dare you get angry? I'm still in kindergarten and I listen to my teacher, alright? And I follow what any stupid, ignorant, moronic politician tells me what to do.

I'm a Republican. I'm a Democrat. I'm a conservative. I'm a liberal. I got a mind that big. All right, listen to this. St. Thomas Aquinas emphasizes that anger is fundamentally one of the passions of the soul and like other passions it is

part of human nature and has an appropriate role to play in the human pursuit of good when directed by reason. Oh you mean I'm angry because of the slaughter of the Palestinians every day for bombing the place into ruin? Why, how dare you be angry, you anti-Semite? All right? He who is not angry when there is just cause for anger is immoral. Why?

Because anger looks to the good of justice. And if you could live amid injustice, without anger, you are immoral as well as unjust. St. Thomas Aquinas. So go tell St. Thomas Aquinas to go screw himself, alright? What does he know? You know everything! I watch Fox. I watch MSNBC. I listen to NPR. I got a brain that big. To me, it's like, you know, they always see anger as the guy that comes home and dinner's not ready so he decides, oh, I'm going to beat my wife and kids. But anger can also be the man that sees that and becomes enraged by that behavior, that becomes angry at that, that points that anchor towards justice. It's not simply, you know, an unreasonable anger over nothing used for simple violence. It can be pointed towards, as you said, justice.

And it's not immoral, as you said, to become angry when you witness injustice. No. Again, look what's going on with the Palestinians. Oh, now they didn't do a peace deal. Why, those dirty Hamas. How about what the peace deal is? Oh, they want a permanent ceasefire and want Israel to leave. Why, how dare you say that? How dare you say that? We're the chosen people, we could kill anybody we want. And listen to Naomi Wolf, a Jewish woman, saying that's a lot of crap about this chosen people, that's a lie. God says the chosen people are people that live in the passion of what God believes, you know, peace, justice, love and spirit, and has nothing to do with religions. Again, look what's going on. Where's the anger of this? Where's the anger? Hey, oh no, let's

talk about Epstein. That's the cover of the magazine, by the way, this week. Public opinion outraged that Trump won't release Epstein files. No outrage that Trump supports Israeli genocide. It's it I do see more people than I would have in the past upset by this. I do see some like a shift in public sentiment but it's not to the extent that you would think. It's still on the fringe of society, which is hard to believe. And we've got articles like this here from Anti-War,

from a few days ago, but it says, Israeli forces kill 130 Palestinians in Gaza, and that's just over 24 hours. I know. Look, it's in your trends journal. Article after article after article. Israel bumps, Israel issues additional evacuation orders as it ramps up offensive in Gaza. And then we have the Gaza death toll each week. They're killing people with a...killing like a hundred, seventy, eighty people going for

food. They're starving to death. They're starving to death. Where's the outreach? Oh, you're not allowed to say it. You get blacklisted. It's terrible. Yeah, this is the...from anti... I go to antiwar.com too.

Yeah. They do a great job. According to Axios, Hamas has asked for more Palestinian prisoners to be released in exchange to Israeli captives. You ready? Including 2,000 Palestinians who have been inducted in Gaza since October 7, 2023, instead of the 1,200 that the U.S. and Israel proposed. The two sides, you ready, have also been at odds over the amount of territory Israel will

occupy. You've got no right to occupy any of this. Oh, what don't you know? God told Abraham 3,500 years ago that this land, anyway, God got locked, joy, never spoke to anybody else. I got to leave you a fairy tale. Anyway, it goes on. The amount of territory Israel occupy,

as Israel is refusing to withdraw its forces back to the positions it held during the short-term ceasefire deal that was signed in January 2025. That's not any... All they're doing is blaming Hamas. Trump came out and criticized Hamas today for not taking the deal.

And now let's go back, go back, go back three weeks ago. Day after day after day, Trump said, cease fire is going to happen in Israel. Cease fire is going to happen in Israel. No cease fire. Oh, this is Trump. Hey, hey, hey, you let me. You elect me. I'm gonna end that Ukraine war in 24 hours, all right? All right? Hey, hey, now that I'm elected,

once I get into office, even before I get into office, that war's gonna end, all right? Oh, and how about the, how about the general, the former general Kellogg yeah Kellogg crispy flakes the Ukraine War is going to end a hundred days after Trump gets into office now you shut up and you listen to me I'm a general I like to kill people look at the freaks look at the freaks yeah we have a comment here from DG8. It's that people voted for Trump because it was like giving the middle finger to the establishment like Graham, Shapiro, Rubio, Bush and Cruz. Now that's who Trump's aligned with.

Yeah, it's become increasingly clear. This man is simply another establishment shill. He'll go along- He's an evil, evil man. By his deeds you shall know him. He lied his way in as a peace president, bombs away over Yemen, bombs away over Iran, giving our money, stealing our money to keep the genocide going in Gaza Gaza and and and Attacking anybody that comes out against it. Mm-hmm Anyone that stands up to him and says I don't support what you're doing. He threatens to primary

He does everything he can to get rid of them. It's all about his own personal petty vendettas and you know his own ego Ready? Mm-hmm. This is this is from Middle East monitor yesterday Israel allocates additional two hundred and forty seven million dollars for West Bank settlement projects Wait we give Israel thanks to Obama the Nobel Peace of Crap prize winner Almost four billion dollars a year our money four billion again as our country is riding in front of us. Occupied territory? Settlements? These aren't settlements. These are land stealers. These are invaders. Why don't you use the right word? Oh, in violation of the Geneva Convention and you in Article 242? Oh no, they're settlers. Stealing more land. They drove 40,000 over the last three months. They drove 40,000 Palestinian people out of

their homes in the West Bank. 40,000. Could you imagine if there were Jewish people that got thrown out? Oh my God, how terrible. And again, I want to make this 1,000% clear. Three of my last four girlfriends were Jewish. Every day, I have pictures over here of my parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles. I thank them for everything they gave me. I'm only me because of them.

And I have pictures of all my past friends and not all of them, but I thank every one of my friends that passed away. And I thank Al Balaad, Bert Feinstein, Jesse Rehman, Mr. and Mrs. Singer, Mr. and Mrs. Rosenblatt, Herbie Strauss, Harold Yorick, Jewish people in my life that have been so kind and loving to me, had nothing to do with religion, had nothing to do with this crap. Tired of hearing it. The kindest people in my life were Jewish people, a lot of other people kind too, but i'm saying they really made a difference in my life and was so good to me and and um So I don't want to hear this crap. Oh, oh if I hate musolini as an italian, I guess i'm anti-italian

That's right the uh To me, it's so incredibly obvious that you're not out here railing against jews. You're out here you know It's so incredibly obvious that you're not out here railing against Jews. You're out here You know pointing out the evils of a government Tyrannical government that Benjamin Netanyahu is in charge of he's he's doing evil in the world He is committing evil acts. It's not about sitting there and saying oh, we want to get rid of all the Jews about saying Benjamin Netanyahu's government is committing a genocide and that needs to stop. That's wickedness. That's evil. You're not out there on the street railing, you come across a Hasidic Jew in New York and you start

screaming at him. That's not what this is about. And it's just this continual, anytime you question Israel, it's seen as an attack on the people themselves and not on the policies that they espouse Which is what this is we even have this article here where you know Trump's own administration are saying he's a madman Trump's team frets about Netanyahu after Syria strikes even people within the Trump administration That's that that's that isn't I think that's hype. Hmm. I think that's, that's, that isn't, I think that's hype. I think that's a lot of hype. Again, we wrote about it in the Trends Journal.

They kept saying it and saying it and Netanyahu comes over to visit Trump. They're trying to make it seem like that. I don't believe a word of it. He's supporting him a thousand percent. Listen to the things he says about Netanyahu Don't forget to pull out the chair and help them sit down Yeah, that's to me. That's hype all hype Yeah To me I could see you know one or two maybe

individuals in there that are worried about You know the appearances of things, but I don't see them ever doing anything to stop it. We know which way the influence flows that, you know, Israel is the one who is calling the shots. If America had any real pull, it would have stopped by now. We would have just pulled the plug on the support. It's not only Israel's calling the shots.

AIPAC is calling the shots. All the Ackman's, all the billionaires that are giving money for it, they're shutting everybody else up. Yeah. It's not only Israel, it's the Jewish lobby. Yeah, they... And they control the media. Oh, who owns the New York Times? One after another. Careful, Gerald, you're sounding mighty anti-Semitic for pointing out these known facts. That's one of the things that's always gotten me, is you point out the amount of influence APAC wields, the donations they give and the policies they espouse, and you go, well, what are you, anti-Semitic?

No, I think perhaps Americans and America should decide for itself what we want to do with our own country. I don't think it's in our best interests to be beholden to this foreign power and do whatever they want and say. But you know I launched Occupy Peace. I had rallies your dad was up here you know you I'm for peace. Now how about one of your billionaires giving us some money for peace. Warren Buffett's son was one of my tenants in my building over here the 1763 Dr. Jensen house he never gave me a penny for peace And Ralph Nader up yet top people never gave me a penny matter penny. Matter of fact, he never even would say hello to me.

I'm only a little guinea from the Bronx, you know, why should he say hello to me, a little wop like me? Hey, don't you know my father is? Don't you know my father is? And arrogant, nothing. With a bad attitude, man. Not a penny from the billionaires. Not a penny.

Not a penny for peace. We're gonna have a rally, by the way, September 27th, September 27th, here in Kingston. So go to occupied peace dot com, occupied peace dot com. And, you know, try to get up here. Yeah, we're doing everything we can. So far, Judge Napolitano and Scott Ritter are going to be here when we went up there for the event. It was just wonderful to be there. There were so many people of like mind and it was just, you know, it was a good time. It's nice to be surrounded with people that you can coalesce around an idea with. It's nice to be able to go there and support something that is a truly good movement. It's so very rare these days.

You know, you'll get these political events, you know, these, oh, we're gonna go support the GOP. Who cares? Why would I do that? Peace is something that benefits everyone, that everyone should be in support of. And it's, I know it's not a gimmick for you. It's not something that you're doing to try to,

oh, I'm gonna sit here and I'll put on this event and it'll make me a bunch of money. No, this is because you truly care about it. This is not some tactic to try to scam or grift people. And it's because you care so deeply about these issues, as everyone should. And I do encourage people people if you can get to Occupy Peace it's worth going it's fun and it's for a good cause you can

meet other people of like mind and that's important to being able to build a community in a coalition of people that are working towards the same goals is what we need to do it It's you know that's part of the reason these other agendas are so successful is they have these gigantic propaganda machines and they get everyone kind of in on the same page and it just marches forward. But yes, OccupyPeace.com. Make it if you can. Again you saw the beauty of the buildings up here. It's gorgeous.

The most historical corners in America. It was just a lot of fun even just to be there and to walk around and see the history that's there. It's worth it alone to me just for that, if you're looking for a nice little trip, just to go see that and. And that's the reason I bought these buildings, because the seeds of democracy was sown here. I went for jury duty the the courthouse right across the

street here the guy who's putting on the show you know the jury the guy running the thing he said you see that picture over my shoulder he said that's John Jay the first Supreme Court judge was a judge right over here he goes on to say that when Kingston was the capital of New York State, the constitution that was written right over there for New York, over 70 percent of America's constitution comes from that constitution. That's why I bought these buildings. I was looking to leave the country at one time back in 2010 because I hated this war crap and I Really I can't run away

And one of these buildings was for sale Nice 1750 Franz rogan house. I bought that one the other one I bought was the Tell you the dr. Jensen house 1763 and the 1774 Academy one of the first public schools in America 1974 Academy one of the first public schools in America I said I can't run away. I'm only me because the monopoly time will born in the Bronx Fuzz born in not the villa being a vehicle quenched. I wouldn't be me that's why I bought these buildings and that's why I launched occupy peace and

Like you said, you know, it's not about making money cost me a lot of money Yeah, and I do it for the spirit of this country that is lost. And to me, the only thing that's gonna bring it back is the Renaissance. We have to go back to the spirit of our ancestors. Once upon a time, everybody in the world wanted to come to America. Everyone. And now they wanna get outta here.

And they don't want to come here anymore. Only people want to come here, the people that lack of basic living standards, poverty, government corruption, crime and violence, they want to get the hell out of those countries. But people in other countries don't want to come here. It's very telling that as you said, the people that can afford to get out of the United States Want to and the only reason to come here is if you are in poverty conditions Yeah, you're going to you know come here and being poor in America is still better than being poor in your own country And that's what it works out to be they're not coming here out of a desire to live in the greatest country on the planet or to

potentially, you know be a part of something great or new or They're not coming here out of a desire to live in the greatest country on the planet or to potentially you know be a part of something great or new or Create some new technology. It's simply to Make slightly more money than they would in their own country. Yeah, and that was And that as you pointed out wasn't the case I'm sure there have always been some people that were like that But it wasn't the majority it was because they saw what America was and how great it was and they wanted to be American They wanted to be a part of that not simply siphon resources Another article I have here which makes me sick personally is you know Israel to fund tours for MAGA and pro-trump influencers

So they're seeing that you know, they need a little bit better PR So we're going to you know, we're gonna put together a fund so you can come look at our wall You can come see how wonderful Israel is Ignore the you know screaming dying children over there in Palestine Isn't it nice to come hang out in Tel Aviv or one of these other cities? You can experience the nightlife or whatever. And it's just this cynical propaganda campaign. We're gonna bring in these influencers and then they'll go back to America and they'll tell all the gullible idiots who follow them, you know, we have to blindly support Israel. And I just... I cannot... it's hard to express

the level of disgust I have for being willing to take a payout to do propaganda for this genocide. Sure, yeah, I'll come over there and I'll record some happy little vlogs for you. Oh, look how nice the city is. Look at how nice they are I'm sure a lot of the people there are incredibly nice. I'm sure a majority are but their government is engaged in genocide it's engaged in continual murder of women and children and That is blood money that these people are taking and to me it's horrific and disgusting are taking and to me it's horrific and disgusting. I agree. You know I just want to go back quickly about we talking about what

what America used to be. One of my books you get this by going to our website transjournal.com with Zidzi gave honey boy. Zidzi is the apolitan dialect for anti. Z is your anti. I don't know if you can see this picture. Did you see that? Mm-hmm, yeah. That's my parents' wedding, 1934, and they all rest in peace. Look at the way they're dressed.

Look what they look like. My father worked in a fish store. They were laborers, they worked in factories. Look at the style of what the people used to look like. The Buffetts, the Gates, the Bezos, the Soros. You can't come close to what these people look like. You can't come close to it. Zuckerberg, one little jerk after another. And again, it goes back to that picture I was showing you, the New York Times picture of that girl, that little thing dressed like a little boy. Yeah. You really turns, you get to, you know, I love your baseball hat on, you know, your ponytail sticking out.

They used to wear these beautiful hats. They had grace and style. This whole country's gone down, man. Again, you go out and everybody's on their phone. Everybody's on their phone. Everybody you go out, and everybody's on their phone. Everybody's on their phone. Everybody walk down the street, they're on their phone. You go into a bar, nobody talks to you. You're on the phone. You watch two people eating, one's on the phone, the other one's on the phone.

Oh yeah, the food's really tasting great. And look how this thing's gone down in front of our eyes. As I said, they misspelled it in the King's James Bible. They said, the meek shall inherit the earth. The geeks have inherited the earth. Yeah. Speaking of that, it's funny to me. I'm a fairly outgoing individual and I like to make conversation with people when I go out, whether I'm chatting with the store clerk when I'm buying groceries or wherever I am and as time goes on people seem to be more shocked and taken aback by it like

They have a hard time reacting or responding to what I'm really saying, you know, they've got you know, good morning How are you? Yeah, but if you try to engage with them on anything deeper They kind of freeze up a little bit more than they used to they're not used to interacting with people anymore No, and the young generations finished. Mm-hmm. Again, it goes back to AI again in trend forecasting It's not what you like what you want what you don't like what you wish. No, it has nothing to do with that. It's what is AI is the future. Yeah, and it's gonna keep dumbing down everybody Yeah, there'll be some good points of it, but a lot of negative. And young people are totally addicted to this stuff. Again,

look at the shape of people. You know, when I was a young guy, your father, he remembers, they had a thing called the Ringling Brothers in Barnum and Bailey circus. He told me he used to go to Sarasota he saw him down there and He's gonna step right up step right up Yeah You don't have to step right up step right up to see the fat man See the tattooed lady and a lady with the beard. They're out in the street everywhere. Hmm Yeah, it's so sad

Hmm. Yeah. It's so sad. Yeah, America has lost, as you said, that sense of dignity. Everyone has kind of accepted this slovenly decline into at best mediocrity. Very rarely is there someone that truly excels or even cares to. And the people, it's hard to even say people like Mark Zuckerberg are excelling because when you look at him he's simply you know this a tech geek that took

funding from the CIA is that really excelling you know getting your funding from In-Q-Tel and selling out the American people and yeah he's rich but he doesn't have any class to him As I said if I had to look like Bezos and keep all your billions We'd want to be you and he marries that chick with the fake boobs You see the picture when they got married you look like a platform. You can walk across Be and I and again, that's the news I had to hear this crap day after day after day after day front page pictures Mm-hmm care about this

Again, what's there's another one a guy got caught on there's some guy a tech guy Something the other oh, yeah, the the CEO of some company got caught on a camera Having an affair at a concert and everyone is just it's non-stop it's all I've seen talked about online for almost a week now I know what the hell do I care about what do I care about this stuff and again that's why the people need a trans Journal we're giving you a don't if any you go to Gerald Salenti and on YouTube and you look at the comments of the people that subscribe

to the magazine, they can't believe it. They can't believe it. They're so thankful. And again, when you put in a night link, you put it up there, you get 10% off. It's the grand total of $2.50 a week, a couple of pennies a day. Yeah. You cannot get that kind of value for money, you know anywhere that I'm aware of so it's well worth It's well worth the 250 a week. Where else can you? Where else can you get that much information for that kind of price? It's ridiculous as you pointed out the New York Times Wall Street Journal It's these giant, you know spreads of pictures of pictures. And maybe the pictures look nice, maybe, but who cares?

Who cares? You're not paying for a picture, you're supposedly paying for information. But then half the magazine, half the newspaper is taken up with these photos. They got rid of journalism. There used to be no photos. Yeah. No, hardly any photos. Yeah. Hardly any photos.

You go back to the 1970s, Google it up. Look at the New York Times. There wasn't a photo on the front, maybe a small little photo on the front page. And there were hardly any photos. They got rid of all the journalists. And now AI is becoming the new journalism. You know, here's an article, by the way, about Trump intends to the AI boom. He goes on to say, America is the country that started the AI race. And as president

of the United States, I'm here today to declare that America is going to win it. No, they won't. China's going to win it. China's going to win it. The Chinese AI is now the most used in the world. Yep, deep-seeking the others. They're the most used in the world. Again, he goes on to say, we're going to make this industry absolutely the top because right now,'re with this is stupid language It's a beautiful baby. That's born We have to grow that baby and let that baby thrive We can't stop it. You're right. It's a baby. Hmm, but I said before you don't invest all your money in the baby

Yeah things baby. That's what I said before. You don't invest all your money in the baby. Yeah. You never want to be, I've said this before, you never want to be the first adopter of a new technology. As a general rule, you want to let them iterate once or twice to get the bugs worked out. And my dad, as you and him have both been saying, saying, this is a redo of the dot com bust. People get very, very excited. They see all these things and they invest, invest, invest, and they throw money at these people. And then as these tech companies almost always do, they under deliver because it's a hype

machine. And all of a sudden people start to panic and the money just starts pouring back out of it. Yep, no you're right. You know here this is your Trends Journal when it used to be a quarterly. This is fall of 1999.com this. Remember this is the fall of 1999.com busts in the second quarter of 2000 we had forecast, and it did. Dot-com overload will short-circuit many high expectations for huge profits in internet commerce, entertainment, and a wide array of dot-com services. Following the holiday season, many of today's high-flying internet stocks, the hottest IPOs and newly emerging IPO wannabes will have become their deep descent from

their overvalued heights. By mid 2000, the fallout from the failing dot coms will have worked its way through Wall Street. We went on and on, said it was going to bust. What happened was the internet revolution began like around 1994. It really started to take off, 1992. And they started making up stuff that made no sense at all because everybody was so hyped up about it.

And we said, no, this stuff doesn't make any sense. It's going to bust. The same thing is going on now, but just a little different the over investing in the baby that's born and So that's going to crash the equity markets It did it before it did it again When the dot-com bust happened in March of 2000 the NasDAQ lost 80% of its value. You know what changed it?

When all else fails, they take you to war. 9-11. Little George E. Bush was president. People couldn't stand him. Going into recession, dot com crash. We're gonna get that guy Osama bin Laden, get him alive. 90% of the people swallow the crap coming out of little boy's mouth. 90% of Americans.

It's funny, you talk about how nobody liked George Bush, but as someone who was quite young at that time, after 9-11 is mostly what I remember. And I just remember everyone loving George Bush. Oh, he's a great president. He's wonderful. He's defending America. He's defending our freedoms. He's teaching those nasty Arabs what for.

He's showing them America won't take nothing. And as a child, you don't really pay too much attention you know the geopolitics is kind of beyond your scope but as an adult looking back on it yeah I see it for just the cynical manipulation that it was and just this continual willingness of the American people to you know oh we've been attacked He's doing something about it. Well, he's our guy. He's our man. What a what a great leader he is Yep, and it's they fall for it over and over. Yep. Let's go back to Osama bin Laden

Who created Osama bin Laden who supported him? You know who well, I believe it was the CIA. Jimmy Carter and that slimeball Mahiratn Helbrzezinski, yeah, whose daughter is now on MSNBC, of course, you know, like on the Calfoo, all right. All right? What happened was the Taliban were taking over Afghanistan. Afghanistan before the Taliban came in was a very advanced cultural society. Great artists. It was doing fine. Russia tried to stop the Taliban from coming in. The Mujahideen, brought to you by Osama bin Laden, Jimmy Carter, and Brzezinski.

That's who they supported. That's who they gave our money to, to go fight the Russians. Jimmy Carter, the peanut farmer. Yeah. This is a slimeball also that deregulated the airline industry. When I was a young guy, I was working for a trade association and I got to the top pretty quick. We're putting on a show, trade show in Las Vegas. I'm living in Chicago. First class from Chicago to Las Vegas, 1974.

Everybody dressed. They rolled a roast down. Would you like a roast or lobster thermidor? And then they had the bar upstairs. Jimmy Carter and the slime ball, Alfreid Kahn, I'll never forget, they were the ones that deregulated the airline industry. There was Mohawk, Allegheny, Braniff, Northwest, Pan Am, one after another All went out of business

Now you got a couple of companies run the whole thing This is the Jimmy Carter that brought us into state banking Bank of America, though they were out in California It was only in trust state banking a rotten piece America, no they were out in California. It was only intrastate banking. A rotten piece of scum like Oliver. Maybe you like FDR, he only gave us World War II. Oh, Woodrow Wilson gave us World War I. Oh yeah, Obama, the Nobel piece of crap prize winner, I want that guy Gaddafi out of there. Oh yeah, the richest country in Africa, great tourist spot where people had more rights and benefits than most of the world. Yeah. I want that guy Assad out of there. Oh yeah, you did a great job in Syria too. Again, one after another, Clinton, you were talking about

him, you know, every time he got caught with his pants down, it bombs away over Baghdad. Google up Madeleine Albright on 60 Minutes with Leslie Stahl. Leslie Stahl asked Madeleine Albright, is the price, are you ready, of 500,000 Iraqi children under the age of five that have died because of what Bill Clinton has done to Iraq, is that worth the price? And Madeleine Albright said, yes, it's worth the price. Yeah, every time. That clip circulates every once in a while. I see it come back now and then and every single time it infuriates me. It makes sick the five hundred thousand it'd be bad enough if it were five hundred thousand people in general five hundred thousand

is an unconscionable number but that's children that is young children on the five you know their life has barely started this is how I feel about politicians and you get this t-shirt by going to Trends Journal. It's got a very powerful and concise message. It makes your feelings very clear. Again, I was the assistant to the secretary of the New York State Senate. I worked on major political campaigns in West Chester County in the early 1970s, Richard's County in America. I got a picture of me when I picked up Ronald Reagan at the Chicago Hilton, 30 years old, two days before he announced

that he was running against Gerald Ford and put on a brunch with 16 of our board of directors. I was a major, I used to do talks for USA Today when it was a big newspaper. I was the prince of Norway. I've been there. I've been on the other side. I wouldn't know what I know if I wasn't on the other side. And it's a freak show and the freaks are running the show. Again, it's the Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Circus. Here, could you come out with a better clown if you were the best artist in the world than Boris Johnson the former Prime Minister of UK with a stupid hand a little jerky look You can't make this stuff up. Yeah, you put a little clown makeup on him and you could rent him out for children's birthday parties We have a comment here, a citizen of Maracaca says there's literally a picture of Osama

bin Laden in the Oval Office with Jimmy Carter. The American government has loved mucking around in the Middle East for decades. It goes back so much further. For most Americans, it seems, that the start of our problems in the Middle East was 9-11. Some will go back to the hostage crisis in Reagan, but most, their knowledge of what goes on in the Middle East starts with 9-11 and kinda ends there as well.

They're like, oh, 9-11, they did that, they're bad. That's what they know. There's no nuance, there's no understanding of what we've done to their countries over the years and how we've continually harassed them for our own economic benefit and for the economic benefit and geopolitical benefit of Israel. They don't want to do any research, that's what they know about. One of my books is called Trend Tracking, far better than Megatrends, Time Magazine. And I write about how I became a trend forecaster. Here it is, the Iran crisis.

I told you how I started tracking trends during the Iran crisis of 1979. And I'll use that as a simple model. People had no idea what happened back then. This is when I became a political atheist and I quit my job. They taught us to hate Iran, the people that were protesting against the Shah, the dictator. They had no idea the United States so with throw the democratically elected government of Mohammed Mosaddegh in 1953.

You were talking about the Middle East before. Yeah, Operation Ajax. The IA and the MI6, the facts are all there. They wanted their oil. Mosaddegh said, no, that oil does not belong to Anglo-Iranian oil, better known today as BP, or standard oil, better known today as Exxon Mobil, that oil belongs to the Iranian people. No it doesn't.

Imagine that. Politician that actually, a world leader that actually is trying to do something for his own people. Imagine that. And they brought in that arrogant piece of scum, the Shah, and the SAVAK, the secret police that made the SS look good. They were torturing the people. On and on.

So what happened was when governments intervene, when a revolution is going on, it brings in the extreme element that takes over. If the United States, all they wanted to do was tell the United States, get out of here, leave, go. We're not going to leave. How dare you tell us to leave? And that's what escalated it in and that's why it became the radical government taking over. Here, this is when it became a tranquil forecast. Jimmy Carter comes back from spending New Year's Eve with the Shah and his wife. And back in the day, the helicopter

would land, all the guys dressed up in their drag. And Jimmy Carter, it's right in the book, says the Shah is the island of stability in the Middle East. And the Bronx, we used to say BS has its own sound and this thing is gonna go down and that's when I became a trend forecaster I started playing the futures markets in gold and oil mm-hmm and I had a ten thousand dollar bet five thousand in each that almost brought it up to three quarters of a million dollars and that's when I quit my job I lost a lot of the dough you know

I'm a young guy anyway but that I look at the facts. Mm-hmm and people have no idea what the facts are But we're giving them in the Trends Journal that they're not getting anywhere else. Yeah The point is you will actually have access to the facts You're not going to sit there and be getting articles about what a Brett Cooper or whatever her name is You're not getting that kind of nonsense Gerald isn't out there going to tell you. Oh look this guy got caught on camera having an affair It'll be things of consequence things that actually matter so again trends journal comm promo code night for 10% off if you would like to both get the Trends Journal and support the show and

if you would like to both get the Trends Journal and support the show. And I've got this article here, we don't really have that much time, but just we have Lindsey Graham still you know out there beating his chest and he's threatening Putin as he's trying to escalate things you know just his rhetoric getting more extreme and it's just what has what has Lindsey Graham ever fought? All right All right. This is in your economic update in this week's Trends Journal Again, we didn't talk about this. Everybody knows this just came up Lindsey Graham warned that President Trump will put 100% tariffs on Indian shine in Brazil if they buy oil from Russia and that Donald Trump would put you ready a whooping On your ass. This is what he said on Fox News.

He's going to whoop him. This is little Lindsey Graham, a little slobby piece of crap that loves war, that couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag. He goes on to say, these three countries account for 80% of Russian crude exports, which is helping to fund the war in Ukraine. Oh, we're funding the Ukraine. Oh, but they can't. Okay. If they keep buying cheap Russian oil to allow the war to continue, you ready? We're going to tear the hell out of you. We're going to tear the hell out of you.

And fat boy, go on and tear them up! Anybody that supports war in another country, go over there and fight. Send your wife, your kids, your transgenders, everybody else in your money, or shut your mouth. Yeah. I have a hard time imagining some Russian Spetsnaz unit watching Lindsey Graham and quaking in their boots. Oh no, Lindsey Graham, he's coming to kill us. Just then you're talking about what he said about Putin. You have played President Trump at your own peril.

You made a major league mistake, a major look at the language, and your economy is going to continue to be crushed. The economy isn't being crushed. They're becoming more self-sufficient and self-sustaining. Russia has all the human and natural resources they need to be self-sustaining and self-sufficient. Russia is a massive, massive, has a massive amount of land. The amount of untapped resources they have is astronomical. And if we just force them to actually utilize their own resources, it might be a short-term detriment to them. They've

got to spool up these industries. But in the long term, that's actually a good thing, forcing them to rely more on themselves and building their own economy. It just, this is all very short-term, short-sighted politics. I've got a comment from Gard Goldsmith here. Says, I would love to write articles for the Trends Journal. Great publication. So hopefully, you know, maybe send them Gerald's Way. Maybe they'll get in there. I don't know how it works, but I know Gard does great work. I know he does. Yeah. Great guy. He's actually, we met Gard for the first time in person when we were up in Kingston. But I know Gard does great work. I know he does. Yeah. Great guy. He's actually, we met Gard for the first time in person when we were up in Kingston.

And that was a wonderful experience there. Just so many great people. People like Gard, people like Gerald. People that truly care about the cause of liberty and peace and freedom. Which is what you need. We don't need these tough guys that are out there beating their chests. America's great because America can kick the ass of any country on the planet. That doesn't matter if it's not a good thing and even if it even if you think it's you know cool and how strong the military is it's

it's not a good thing for the American people. This was Thomas uh, I believe it was Thomas Jefferson who said the weapons of war abroad will become the tools of oppression at home. And we see that over and over again. It's what's happening to us. And the founding fathers knew what they were talking about. They didn't say these things without thought or consideration. And we have discarded everything they fought for, everything they cared about, and everything they worked so hard to give us. And it's truly sad to see, but it's good to see

people like Gerald who will stand up and still fight for it in a spot that has so much history to it, a spot that is so dear to the heart of freedom in the United States. And I just want to say thank you, Gerald. Thank you for coming on and thank you for the you know supporting us with you know the Trends Journal. Again promo code night for 10% off at TrendsJournal.com. Thank you Gerald. Thank you. Alright folks that is our show for this week. We thank you all for tuning in.

We will see you on Monday. Take care. ["The Star-Spangled Banner"] The common man. The Common Man. They created Common Core to dumb down our children. They created Common Pass to track and control us. Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing and the communist future. They see the Common Man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary.

But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God. That is what we have in common. That is what they want to take away. Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation. They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us. It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide. Please share the information and links you'll find at TheDavidNightShow.com Thank you for listening. Thank you for sharing.
