All right, welcome back. And joining us now is Gerald Cilenti. And you can find his excellent Trends Journal at TrendsJournal.com. Gerald has always been ahead of the trend. And he is very concerned, as I am, about the trend to war. We will talk about that. And I've got other things, too, in terms of what's been happening with interest rates, what's been happening with some of the major oil companies, what they're saying about the future of oil. I want to get Gerald's take on that.

But it's been about a month since we've talked, Gerald. And so a lot of stuff has happened, especially this last week with these indictments about Trump. What's your take on all that? You know, it's a waste of time. And it's a freak show. Yeah. Right in front a waste of time. And it's a freak show. Yeah. Right in front of everybody's eyes. And it's not only America.

It's a global freak show. Look at that little clown that they're finally bringing Boris Johnson over to the UK. I mean, a cartoonist couldn't come out with a better character than that little slobby freak. Actually, they now have a cartoon place that they had these puppets called Spitting Image. They did a great characterization of both Trump and Boris Johnson, but he is very cartoonish

and buffoonish. It truly is amazing. Yeah, you're right. Yeah, cartoonish and buffoonish. You said it perfectly. And this is a little scum that locked down everything, destroyed the lives and livelihoods of people throughout the country, as they've done all over the world. And while he's having parties,

you can't go see your dying mother, your dying father in a hospital. Remember that one? That's right. Or in a nursing home. Stay home. You can't see.'s right. Or in a nursing home. Stay home. You can't see. And we'll make up anything we want.

And of course, he was lying to them. He closes down everybody, destroys their lives, and goes parties. Like that other arrogant little freaky boy. My daddy was a top lawyer for the Getty gang. Yeah, Gavin Newsom. Partying up at the French laundry over there. We're of course about four or $500 a plate. Wow. Yeah.

Well, everybody's locked down. Remember that one? Oh yeah. Yeah. And Matt Hancock, they found his texts where he's laughing about what he's doing. And then we had that clip since we last talked,

uh, one person who shows a North Carolina public health director or something. And, and Biden is thinking of putting her in at the CDC, of course, because she laughed about how she's calling up other state health directors. Are you going to let them do this? Are you going to stop them from doing that? Well, then I'm not going to do it either.

Yeah, yeah. You know, it's just making this stuff up. Making it up. Yeah. Yeah, health directors, little scum people, little arrogant pieces of scum that can't get a job in the real world and suck into the political system. And they steal our money for these bureau craps. They're nothing more than crap heads.

They can't get a job in the real world. They suck into the political system and they become the most arrogant. You can do this and you can do that. You can't do this. You can't do that. I'm in charge. I'm in charge. I sucked my way up to get here. And now I'll tell you what to do. Health director, look at that little freak we got as the health director of the United States, Rachel Levin. Oh no, it was Richard. Oh no, he got his,

not off. And now he's Lola, L-O-L-A, Lola. Look at the freaks. Yeah. Oh, that's right.

And that goes back to Trump, an arrogant, arrogant, arrogant, arrogant, narcissistic guy. Yeah. Trends Journal Magazine. We were the first ones to call

him a winner in may of 2016. can't stand the guy i'm a political atheist but i call it like it is trump and i are the same age he's a couple of months older than when i was a little kid and i'd be totally out of control, my parents, may they rest in peace, me and my brothers, they say, we had enough. You finish with you, you go into military school. That was the biggest threat you could get. I'll be good, I'll be good. I want to go to military school.

My mother's cooking these delicious meals. I'm having the time of my life, you know. Trump was so narcissistic, they sent him to military school. And it's in Cornwall, New York. It's about 40 minutes south of where I am up here in Kingston. In the middle of nowhere. In the middle of nowhere. Here you are, You're a young,

you're a teenager. What are you thinking about? Cause sports girls? Well, Casey, you're Rachel within your life. You're thinking of being a girl. Yeah.

Yeah. Could you imagine being in military school, dressed up in a stupid drag and eating crap food every day and saluting that's how narcissistic trump is that they sent him away because he couldn't and this kid's riches can be at the top of the top so narcissistic they shove him off to military school yeah yeah well you know it's interesting i'm sure you saw this article about uh after his arraignment or whatever it was. I guess it's arraignment. That's what they call it in Miami. He goes to a Cuban restaurant and he says, food for everybody.

And so this reporter, a local local press went by there and said, so did everybody get any food? Nobody got any food. It's so difficult, isn't it? You see that from all these politicians, but especially from Trump. Yeah, I'm going to give everybody food. I'm going to build a big wall. I'm going to do this. I'm going to bring peace. That was the thing, Gerald, that really amazed me was how everybody was just grabbing hold of Tucker Carlson's little essay the other day. They're desperate for some reason to support Trump. And you can't really sell rationally, I think, the idea anymore that he's an anti-globalist after what he did in 2020.

But locking us down and producing the jab and all the rest of this stuff, bringing us medical martial law. I called it that from the very beginning. I called it medical martial law. They did articles about me, the Southern Poverty Law Center and Daily Beast. This radical guy is calling this medical martial law. Can you believe this? And it's like, okay, that's going to age well.

And I think it has. But when you look at Trump and they're desperate to reinvent a reason why we've got to support him. And so Tucker Carlson gives him one. And he says, he's the only one who's going to give us peace. He told them that they were lying about the wars, about the weapons of mass destruction. I said, he promoted the liar and the torture to the head of the CIA. I mean, can you believe that? Did that make you as angry as it made me?

That really made me angry to see Tucker lying to people like that. Yeah. Now, again, you know, it's that little freak show and that's that club and so i just don't get involved in it put my mind into it because there are bigger things going on oh by the way there's a great interview i did with judge napolitano you could get it at my channel gerald salenti or the trans journal channel about his take on um the legal issues regarding trump and he really breaks it down in in ways that I haven't heard before. So you can see it on YouTube.

I played what he had to say about how they were able to break the lawyer-client privilege thing because of being involved in trying to get the lawyers to be a part of a crime, a criminal cover-up, and that type of thing. And so, yeah, it's very interesting, the back and forth of all this. I think the real danger, though, is the fact that it's become this kind of cult. I think that is a real danger to all of us. That's what it is.

Yeah, it's tribalism. And we even had a Republican lawmaker, this guy is Representative Clay Higgins from Louisiana, and he said, they expect to imprison you. He said, don't fall into the department of justice trap again, like you did on January the sixth. And why I did everything I could to try to warn people away from that. All that stop the steel stuff, the January 6th thing. And he's saying my fellow conservatives, the department of justice and FBI

doesn't expect to imprison Trump. They expect to imprison you. They want J6 again in Miami and in your city and in mine. They want MAGA conservatives to react to this perimeter probe and in so doing set yourselves up for targeted persecution and further entrapment. That's exactly what this is about, in my opinion. And I talked this week. He's right. exactly what this is about, in my opinion. And I talked this week, I talked just a couple of days ago to a FBI whistleblower, Stephen Friend, who refused to be a part of that political persecution. They wanted him SWAT teaming people. They didn't even have any evidence of these people had done anything or even there. And so he said, I'm not going to do that. And so, you know, talked about

his problems because of that, that blew up. They came after him then. But that's what this is all about. And that's what I think is so dangerous is that you've got this fanaticism. Trump has been this dividing line of people who fanatically hate him and fanatically love him, and it's incredibly dangerous, I think. I mean, that's the only reason Biden won. It wasn't people who loved Biden. They hated Trump. Yeah, yeah. And I think that they know that if Biden won. It wasn't people love Biden. They hated Trump. Yeah.

Yeah. And I think that they know that if they continue to persecute, he's just made another $6 million off of this stuff, fundraising. And so they know that as they persecute him, he becomes more and more endeared to, uh, the Republican base,

the majority of Republicans. So he could easily win, uh, the Republican majority. If he doesn't, he will severely damage all the rest of the Republicans. And so that's going to be an easy way for the Democrats to win. And that's what I think is one of the key motivating factors for them bringing up these

charges. It could be. Yeah. And again, you know, it's who cares about this guy? You know, you mentioned a couple of things, by the way, all the things he said he was going to do. I'm going to build a wall. You mentioned a couple of things, by the way. All the things he said he was going to do. I'm going to build a wall. He built a couple of, nothing.

That's right. Oh, he was going to rebuild the infrastructure. Again, we wrote about the three things that he said, his three points that he kept saying during the campaign. He's going to stop the immigration, build a wall, rebuild the infrastructure, and lower taxes. The only thing he did was he lowered taxes for the 1% of which he is. According to the Tax Policy Center, his tax breaks, 64% of them went to the 1%. And then what they did that year is all these big corporations

with the baloney he spewed out of his lying fat mouth, we're going to give him tax breaks and they're going to do capital expenditures and they're going to build up the businesses bigger. No, they won't. They're going to buy back their stock. They got all this free money now. And that's exactly what they did. They had one of their biggest years of stock

buybacks after he gave the bigs all their tax credits. He's a lying, arrogant freak. All he's concerned about is himself. Oh, and how about the one line in these

records that he kept that don't make the news that's really important? The United States had plans to attack Iran. This is the Trump, the murderer that killed the Iranian general Soleimani when he went to Iraq to negotiate for peace. That's the murderous little boy. Again, another fat boy that couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag. But boy, is he tough. Boy, is he tough when Boy, is he tough. When other people go do their fighting, like all these little clown politicians,

your little Chuckie Schumer, your Adam Schiff, your little Lindsey Graham's, your Mitch McConnell's, they're not men. They can't fight. But boy, let's send more money to go kill people over in Ukraine

and slaughter the place and kill all the Russians that we can. That's right. Yeah. They keep saying that. We just had on informed policy. I mean, that's a, that's a CFR, uh, magazine. And they had this interview with a Ukrainian general. He said, well, they told us we don't have all the weapons for you.

I just dig foxholes and kill as many Russians as you can. And so that's what it is. And Lindsey Graham has said that you. Just dig foxholes and kill as many Russians as you can. And so that's what it is. And Lindsey Graham has said that over and over again. Let's kill as many Russians as we can. Again, a little piece of scum that couldn't fight. He could never fight for his life. He could never fight for his life. So here's my, here's my take.

Anybody that wants to support Ukraine, send your money, go over there, put on your costume, grab a gun, and go fight. Or shut your mouth. That's right. I don't want my money going there. And you're stealing it from me. And I won't go fight there. I will only fight to protect America from invaders. That's right.

So anybody that supports it, send your money, go over there, or shut your mouth. I don't want to hear from you. Oh, by the way, you know, I had a big rally up here on May 27th. Yes. And one of the speakers was Dennis Kucinich who is very anti-war and he's rfk juniors national campaign match we had a big crowd up here it was perfect one of the best ones yet weather everything that's great zero coverage in the local news national news and you could go to the occupy peace and look at this rally nothing like it in america nothing nothing nothing like it in america shut up cilenti

we will not cover your peace movement we hate you because you are a warrior for the prince of peace and all we are are pieces of crap. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yep, that's the way they do it. They silence people. They ignore you. It's probably the best thing that they can do to silence people is just to ignore them.

And, you know, hope that nobody's going to be able to find you. Google has become a search engine that is designed to hide things and designed to hide people. And that's really what the whole media thing has become. It is such propaganda that we see. But I saw an interesting article, and I spent some time talking about it earlier in the show. It was on RT, and it was from a defense minister there. His argument was that the decadent West has become a threat to the world. And he said, we have to instill the fear of nuclear weapons in them he said we

have started this by sending nuclear weapons to belarus he sounds like he wants to have a limited quote-unquote limited nuclear exchange there in ukraine uh just to show he says we're too afraid of using he kept going back too afraid of using the nuclear weapons that we have now. We need to get them to embrace this reality that this could get bigger. And so it looks to me like it's going to escalate quite a bit, especially looking at this. They see it as an existential threat. How about the United States? You're talking about nuclear weapons?

Yeah. How about the United States and the UK sending depleted uranium, the shells with depleted uranium in them. Yeah. Oh, that's not nuclear. Yeah. It certainly is going to leave a poisoned wasteland there in this way.

We saw that in Iraq. Where were all you climate change clowns? Yeah. Look, look what they're doing. Oh, look how they're poisoning the planet. Yeah.

Yeah. All you climate change. You know, it was up here in kingston uh last last week or the week before you couldn't go outside because of the forest fires up in canada new york city covered with smoke these little clowns can't put out a fire they can't put out a fire they sent hundreds trillions of dollars, according to the Brown University study that came out two weeks ago. Since 9-11, the United States has spent over $8 trillion in wars and killed between 4.3 and 4.5 million people.

They're not sure. You haven't won a war. You killed a lot of people. You're so damn stupid. You keep shooting them out and you haven't won a war you killed a lot of people you're so damn stupid you keep shooting him out of and you can't put out a fire you can't put out a forest fire but you're gonna win a war and you're gonna save our lives yeah so where are all these climate change freaks what do you got locked you're too stupid to think about what I just said. That's right. How about the pollution coming from that? Yeah. How about the pollution from the war going on? No, we're in favor of that war. We're little libtards. Yeah. They absolutely don't care about bombs. They don't care about, uh, they care about

emissions of your car, but they don't care about radiation from depleted uranium shells. You know, it's just, it truly is insane. And of course, you know, I can understand people who are not informed and people who are repeating that stuff and unable to connect the dots. But of course, the people who are running these news organizations, they know exactly what they're doing in tandem with the U.S. government. They are the ones who are running the deception truly is amazing. Um, let's talk a little bit about money. We had, uh, the fed, uh, did not do a rate hike this last week, but they say there's two more coming. Talk a little bit about inflation where you see this headed. Oh, the inflation is definitely going down. There's no question about it,

but prices are still very high. So yeah, inflation's gone down. But how much is the average home cost? A little under $400,000. So where are they going to go down? 10%. Who could still afford it? You can't afford it. Yeah, so prices are going to go down a little bit,

but inflation's still very high across a lot of levels. And will the Fed raise rates? They're liars. You don't know what they're going to do they're going to make up anything they want at any time my belief is i don't think they're going to and i'll and i'll bet any amount of money that they will definitely lower them in the run-up to the presidential reality show in 2024 yes because the people running the government are the federal reserve yeah and if you don't believe me how about the person that's playing our treasury secretary janet yellen yeah what was the last job oh you mean the head of the federal

reserve wait a minute you mean the head of the federal reserve is now our treasury secretary so who's running the government the banksters the bankster bandits it's very much like uh trump's uh head of um uh health and human services which you know nih and all these things are underneath it uh that was a former CEO of Eli Lilly. So who is running our health system? The pharmaceutical companies. Who is running the Treasury Department, the Federal Reserve? I mean, it truly is amazing.

That's why I say so much of this stuff about the presidential election is just going to be subsumed by the bureaucracy that is there, isn't it? Yep. So here was a cover of the Trends Journal back in 2012. It's just going to be subsumed by the bureaucracy that is there, isn't it? Yep. So here was a cover of the Trends Journal back in 2012. Nothing has changed. Nothing has changed. Oh, how many JPMorgan Chase convicted, admitting to five felonies? Convicted.

Five felonies. How come Jamie Dimon's not in jail or all the other ones? What are you kidding, Salenti? We only prosecute the bigs get a slap on the wrist and we prosecute all the plantation workers of Slave Landia to the fullest extent of the law. Look what's going on with this guy.

I forgot his name. Choked this guy to death in the subway in New York. Oh, yeah. The ex-Marine. A white supremacist. Yeah. A guy that got arrested, what, 40-something times, this other guy? Mm-hmm.

Like 42, 44 times? Yeah. A couple of weeks before that, he punched a 67-year-old woman in the face. And broke a lot of bones in her face, too. Yeah. Yeah. it was devastating yeah and again you know i'm a close combat guy you know i had a fight and when i was a little kid by the way my father may rest in peace and i was the littlest kid and i grew up in the one in

the bronx you know the bullies pick on the littlest kid so you learn how to fight right away but anyway one of my father used to say, show them no quarters. In other words, when you're in a fight, you got them down. You got to finish them off. You don't say, okay, get up. We're finished. Then they beat you up. Yeah, that's right.

Yeah. Yeah. We had, uh, had the, the boys taking some martial arts classes when they were little for a while. And, uh, the guy that was teaching him would say you know kindness to your opponent is cruelty to yourself so you know you're going to get in a fight you know try not to get in a fight but you're going to be in a fight you got to finish it that guy came on that he came on there though threatening to kill people and you know i mean it was so but

yeah that's it's that's what i too. It's prosecution to the fullest. Yeah. We the little people of Slavelandia, while the criminals get a slap on the wrist. How about bringing little Georgie Bush up on war crimes for lying America into the Iraq war? Yeah. Yeah.

When all the facts were there that there were no weapons of mass destruction. That's right. And again, one of the speakers at the rally last year was Phil Giraldi, former top CIA guy who goes into Bush's office with the facts. Yeah. There are no weapons of mass destruction.

And Bush tells Giraldi, Philil geraldie get out of here get out of the office wow geraldie left the office and geraldie quit the cia yeah that's amazing well you know that's the thing about it when tucker was talking about that it's like yeah but but trump owned it he became a part of that when he promoted the person who was selling the lies. So Giraldi gets out. He resigns because of that. Gina Haspel gets promoted by Trump. You're the head of the CIA.

So he owned it in the same way that he owned these lockdowns because the buck doesn't just stop with him. He's now saying, I didn't do it. Same thing Fauci said. I didn't do it. These little people did it at the bottom. I just suggested that they do it, but I didn't make them it you know it's the it's the nuremberg in reverse now instead of i was just following orders yeah i didn't give any specific orders but you did give specific orders it started with you you are responsible the buck stops with you and it started with him because he

financed all this stuff uh that's that's the troubling reality of this. I've got a couple of comments here from people. Geesebusters, thank you for the tip. He says, Trends Journal is a great magazine. I'm very happy with it. It absolutely is. It's weekly, and Gerald covers the waterfront on this stuff, and it's in a magazine format on the internet so that you can find quickly the different ones,

and it's easy to read in different places. it is he's always ahead of the trends on that jason barker says and jason barker's got a show nights of the storm on saturday morning coming up tomorrow morning 10 o'clock he says i was talking to my wife yesterday about maybe getting a new writing mower do you realize that a decent mower costs more than a car did just 20 years ago? That's what inflation has done. That's right. And of course, they're going to try to ban that riding mower, just like they're going to try to ban the cars.

That's what they're doing everywhere. And speaking of oil, he also asks, he says, can you ask Gerald what is going on with Venezuela's dark fleet of oil tankers to escape U.S. sanctions? And China is ramping up of their own crude reserves by about a million barrels as we decline, because they keep taking more out of our strategic petroleum reserve and not topping it up, even though they said, we're going to wait until the price of oil drops.

The price of oil dropped to where they said they were going to start topping it up. They didn't do anything. Now they're taking even more out. What do you think about that it's what's again let's go back to the papers that Trump kept out they talked about America attacking Iran we're going to talk about oil prices look what's going on with Israel. Look at, again, in your Trends Journal, we have the quotes from different Israelis saying how they plan to attack Iran. They're saying it. How dare Iran get a nuclear weapon, which they have UN inspectors saying they don't have the capacity to do it at this time

and of course israel has every right as does the united states to forbid iran to have nuclear weapons because israel only has about 400 nuclear weapons and the united states only has a couple of thousand and israel won't allow any of the inspectors into israel to see what they have so they have every right to demand what iran should do if war breaks out in the middle east you're going to see oil prices go above above 130 dollars a barrel as we're speaking now, Brent crude is around $75 a barrel. Now, going back to China, building up their reserves, everybody knows that the situation is going to get much worse come the winter. And all of what they're doing in Europe and filling up their reserves, it's not going to be enough to get them through the winter and they had a mild winter last year so they got eased out on the downside of this China where the covid war was launched back on January 2020 in celebration of the year of the rat their three years of zero covid policy

have destroyed their economy yeah yeah they have destroyed the lives and livelihoods of hundreds of millions of people in that country. I know people in China. And when this is going on, they're telling me the businesses that are going out of business, he said, you can't believe it. Remember,

this is three years of lockdown. Yeah. And they just did it again recently they just started uh locking things down in another city recently did so this this economy is not bouncing back yeah and the bounce back that we had in the united states and european economies is only temporary you know they had that enthusiasm and enthusiasm when they started loosening up and started ending the COVID war. Let's take a trip to a place called Europe. They're in recession.

They're officially in recession. Two consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth. Now what just happened on Thursday? Oh, they raised interest rates another 25 basis points. Even when they raised interest rates 25 basis points, it's now at about 3 to 3.5 around that area, their interest rate. What's your inflation rate? Oh, 6.1%. I mean, you have negative interest rates. Oh yeah, we you have negative interest rates. Oh yeah, we've had negative interest rates since 2012 when we made this stuff up.

So even with the cheap money, you're looking, and this is very important, you don't look at only retail sales that are going up in different, not retail sales, but the service sector. So people, summertime's coming, they're traveling more. Oh, they're going out. No, no. Look at the manufacturing. Look what's being made. And when you go around the world, whether it's China, Europe, the United States, our manufacturing numbers are way down. So they're building less, they're making less

because this thing is going down. And what's going to bring it down big time that no one talks about other than us and we've been talking about it for three years when it began is the office building bust yeah commercial real estate they are talking about a little bit i've seen a few articles in a few places now but you've been talking about it for three years how how big it's going to be and um and it's starting to get even the mainstream media's attention on that. Yep. So let's take a trip to San Francisco. The little clown boys, the Dorseys and the others, the Cooks and the Peach Eyes and the Zuckerbergs, they were the first ones to lock down. We're sending our workers home. COVID has come and it's great for our business because now

everybody's shopping online ordering online eating online everything online your office vacancy rate not occupancy in terms of with people going back to work vacant offices 30 percent 30 percent office vacancy rate not only in california up in san francisco take a trip down to los angeles 30 office vacancy rate new york city 20 office vacancy rate. Montreal, they're registering, they're estimating a 25% office vacancy rate. So office occupancy rate, it's around 50%. So mean people going back to the office, 50% less than they were before they started the COVID war in 2020.

How about all the businesses that depend on commuters? Yeah. And now all these big corporations on all these big buildings, you got less tenants. How are you going to pay your loan? I'm not. That's right. All the banks. There's like $20 trillion worth of commercial loans out there

and and then coming due now and now interest rates have gone up and they have they have like interest-only loans a lot of these so the loans are floating they keep changing so now they have to pay more on their loans as interest rates have gone up as they have tenants are leaving yeah so you're going to see a banking crisis that's just begun and they're covering it up so going back to interest rates i don't think they're going to raise them anymore and they're going to definitely lower them i bet i'll bet anybody they'll lower them in 2024 in the run-up to the presidential reality show so they're saying two more raises this this year but you think they may not do that but i definitely agree they're going to start lowering them uh next year maybe they'll put in an interest rate raise or two

sometime between now and the end of the year so they can start making some uh you know so that the that'll kind of juice them pulling those things back right away uh you know next year but it's very important david to understand that they're liars and manipulators oh yeah absolutely and they're not going to say that we're not going to raise interest rates because then they know the stock market would take off, gold prices would take off. They know that the speculators would go nuts if they knew that they weren't going to raise rates. That's right. So they're lying about it. Again, remember, these are the clowns that they only started raising interest rates in March of 2022, saying there was no inflation as it was skyrocketing and hitting 40-year highs.

It was only temporary and transitory. And in Europe, they didn't start raising interest rates until July of last year. And they were lying. They said that there was no inflation. So we have to understand who we're dealing with again. And if you forget, as the Prince of Peace who became violent to chase the money changes out of the temple. Yeah.

Yeah. And of course the other thing they did that was so damaging this time. And, and I have talked about it many times when you go back and you look at how they kept interest rates so low between the.com bust and then, you know, gave that bubble and then every quarter you know they're taking it up a little step a quarter of a point quarter of a point that

type of thing 25 basis points each time that's a little stair step until they burst it this time what they did they started doing it by leaps and bounds typically you know two three base quarters of a basis point and and that's the thing that's created these bank failures because people are scrambling around trying to get rid of these lower interest rate paying mortgages that are there. But, but let's go back and talk a little bit more about this, this oil situation, geopolitics with that. You know, you mentioned the fact that at the very center of this thing, and probably the most damning evidence that they've got is him talking about the documents of the, you know, the war plans for Iran and the fact that, hey, this vindicates me or whatever.

And yeah, I should have declassified this, but it's top secret. He's got the top secret stuff and all the rest of the stuff. But the other part of that, as you pointed out, was the fact that they were drawing up war plans with Iran. China brokered peace with iran and with saudi arabia which we never want to do and they're going around brokering peace in different areas to expand their um their influence and you know their control over other places uh it's a very different approach that they're taking and it's amazing to see that um you know

everybody is so incredibly fed up with the United States government. This week I played a thing from the African nation saying, we're not going to use the dollar anymore. We're going to have our own export-import bank, and we can use our own currencies, and we don't want the dollar anymore. Everybody is so fed up with this American hegemony. It's amazing. So, exactly. They're fed up with America's economic hegemony and it's geopolitical hegemony. They've had enough. And going back to the dollar,

the death of the dollar has begun. The only reason the dollar is strong is because interest rates are high. When they start lowering interest rates rates the dollar is going to go down and and that'll be next year the election exactly the dollar is going to go down gold prices are going to go way up as the dollar gets weaker because gold is dollar based so for other countries people buying gold if their currency is going down and the dollar is strong, it costs them a lot more money to buy gold. But when the dollar weakens, that's when they're going to see the gold rush. And the dollar is going to weaken when they start lowering interest rates. And by the way, we're not gloom and doomers.

We call the facts. Go back to November. We said the S&P 500 was going to continue to climb following the midterm elections. It's up over 12% now. You know why we said it? We look at the data. Following the last 40, 4-0 midterm elections over 60 years, the dollar, the S&P rather, has increased. Following the midterm elections, 16.3%.

So it's on track to continue doing that. But this is the end of it. The end is going to come. The only thing that's keeping the people from realizing how bad things are are the strong stock markets yeah because when the markets crash then mainstream gets how bad it is even as they're suffering now now and now before forget too, and another note, very important, this whole AI thing, this is big.

And now the bets, and we have, now we have an entire separate section in your trends journal on AI. And one of the top trends for 2023 was AI. We own you. And they're saying, is this the next.com bust? Yes.

Because you're seeing, well, it's not. This is very different than the dot-com time. This is your trends journal from October 1999 when it was an eight-page quarterly newsletter. Top story. Dot- com this. We said the markets were going to crash by the second quarter of 2000, and they did. And you know why? Because back then, when the whole internet revolution only began in the mid-90s, around 1994, they were making up all this stuff of what things were going to be in the internet.

And I'm saying to myself, it doesn't make sense what they're saying it doesn't make sense they were making stuff up they got ahead the y2k that whole thing yeah this is different this artificial intelligence is taking over well let me ask you this i think one you know because now we see you know in hindsight we see the internet is coming. You could see the long trend, but it was certainly being oversold, right? And so is that a danger with the AI market? Are the expectations so oversold that at some point people are going to say, well, wait a minute, that's not happening. And then, you know, it's just the psychological thing.

If they lose confidence in it, would it cause, are they getting there too fast is what i'm saying are they overselling it not on this one at all oh there's going to be companies that you know overvalued and go down that always happens but this ai is going to continue to accelerate and you're looking at one study after another depending on who's doing it it's going to cost you 400 million jobs. They're going to make, you know, four, 10 trillion dollars on and on different different levels. Again, this chat GPT is real and it and and it's and it's only the beginning because what you have is a whole society of younger people that are totally tech addicted. Yeah, yeah. And the thing that concerns me about it is that the society of younger people

are going to see it as an authoritative standard. They're going to see it as the authority. It's going to take the place of Fauci as science, and that is a really dangerous thing for us. That's what concerns me is how it's going to be treated and obeyed. And, uh, with a kind of religious fervor,

that's what really is concerning me. I got a comment here from John, John, we were talking about interest rates and how they would lower it for the election. He says, yeah, the lower interest rates and housing market will boom again,

boom again. Housing is key at election time. People will say the world is all right when they're moving into a new home because that's another side of it as well. They can get a little temporary dip in that stuff. You just got to make people happy just before the election and then the boom comes, doesn't it? They lower the boom, I should say. They create a boom and then they lower the boom on you after the election exactly yeah and and that's where that's where we're headed there's no question about it and and so we're going to have a crash

the likes of which we've never seen but again going back to the beginning and all things are connected when all else fails they take you to war and they're ramping up this talk about a nuclear war and this they've been ramping this talk back and forth by the way on both sides look at the commercials they were running on tv about what to do in case there's a nuclear explosion in a neighborhood near you that was new york wasn't it wasn't new york yeah and this is from Business Insider on June 9th, not too long ago. If a nuclear bomb is dropped on your city, here's what you should and shouldn't do. It increases your chances of staying alive.

Lower the window shades so it doesn't get too bright. No, drop to the ground with your face down and your hands tucked under your body i'm not making this up again these are the same arrogant pieces of scum crap stand six feet apart yeah the wind blows exactly in straight lines and stops at six feet apart and you won't get COVID. Oh, they still have the mandates if you go into the White House, if you haven't been vaccinated. Yeah, that's right.

That's right. Oh, and wear that mask. The little, you were up here, the little clowns where they have the farmer's market on Sundays, they moved it into the big county parking lot over here. They were making circles outside on the sidewalk every six feet with chalk like little kindergarten kids and then when you got into the parking lot they counted how many people came in and then when you got to the vendors to buy it yet he had to stand six feet apart so the wind blows exactly in straight lines and six feet

apart when you're outside doesn't go around remember the little plastic shields they put in front of the cashiers oh yeah wind didn't go around it didn't go behind them it stopped right in front of you that's right so i'm going back to the stupidity this is from business insider how about business outsider how about business underground oh business insider just fired 10 of your staff because your stuff is the same crap that others are reporting and you have nothing new oh here we go don't stare directly at the blast i'm not making this stuff yeah i liked uh i liked our duck and cover stuff better my son said yeah at least

with a duck and cover they could find your dental records you know so assuming there's anybody left to look at dental records and don't stand near windows once you're indoors and don't shut do shut off

heaters and air conditioners and you're ready for this one this will save your life when a nuclear blast comes. I'm not making this up. Take a shower as soon as possible. Wash that radiation off you, you know. Yeah, because the water will be working after a nuclear blast. Just rub it off.

You'll be fine. You know, there's John F. Kennedy's speech to graduating students at American University in June of 1963. And he's warning, saying we should not hate the Soviet Union. We need to make peace with them. More of them died in world war ii than anybody else he said he said over 20 million about 27 million have died he said if we go to war with the soviet union and have a nuclear war life on earth will be destroyed in 24 In 24 hours. And he also says.

That America will never go to war. You can read his speech. Five months later. Jackie are dead. They killed him. And we went to war. Eight months later. After with LBJ.

But going back to what Kennedy said. The world will be destroyed with nuclear destruction. He said it will last for generations. It will be destroyed. They give you this stupid little crap, 13 things to do. Seal away contaminated clothes. Don't search for your family members right away.

Don't eat unpacked food or food that was left outside and you're ready for the best thing do listen to the radio for instructions yeah this is straight out of that animated um uh film they did back in the 80s in the uk called when the wind blows you know read everything that the guy and they show this gullible, middle-class, elderly couple, and they're going by the book and doing all this stuff and dying as they're doing it. It truly is amazing. Of course, a business insider will not cover Occupy Peace, right? They'll just give you some ridiculous instructions about what to do when the nuclear bomb hits New York City.

I've got John John here says, when I was going through recruit training in the Marine Corps, after going through NBC training a nuclear nuclear biological chemical the instructor said all this is futile and we just need to bend over and kiss our ass away that's right that's what I always say bend over and kiss your ass goodbye yeah yeah again when I was a kid you remember they had us hiding on the desk in case an atom bomb went off yeah I was in Florida going to school and I remember they had us take an extra set of clothes and I was, you know, maybe about three blocks. That's when we had neighborhood schools and stuff. Uh, it's about three blocks from home. They had us take an extra set of clothes and keep it there at the school, uh, because the Cuban missile crisis. And we were like, I was in, uh, third

grade and it's like, what are they talking? I've seen the pictures of what happens to the houses and the mannequins in the houses when they blow one of these bombs off. It's like, what is this about? It made no sense to me whatsoever. Even as an eight-year-old kid, it made no sense to me. I was in the 10th grade when that happened, this Cuban Missile Crisis. And I'll never forget when they made a deal in our history classes. They never talked about it. They used to have current event classes.

They never talked about the deal. I'll never forget it. They never made a big deal about it. Wow, wow. That a deal was made. And then when we were that age in, in, in high school, you were too big to go under the desk.

So they used to have us out standing in the hallway with our hands behind our head with it like this. Yeah, it was none of us believe that even in elementary school, this is crazy, but you know, they kept telling us we'd see these pictures and they would say, and there's going to be so little time because you know, Cuba is so close to Florida here.

And, um, and so, you know, really, uh, it was a scary thing for a kid to look at that, especially because we knew it was total nonsense or was anything that's going to protect us from that. When I was a little kid, I'll never forget when I used to see an airplane fly over, I got scared. I thought it was like the Russians were going to bomb us. Yeah, that's right. I was about 10 years old.

Yeah. Yeah, we look at these alliances that are being made, and of course, there's more of them happening all the time in Africa. China is talking to other people. In the Middle East, I've got a question here. They want me to ask you, what do you think about the marriage of a Prince of Jordan to the daughter of the prominent Saudi family? Is this going to be another alignment? And what do you think that's going to do to oil prices as they all seem to be

coming together in various ways, right? Well, they're going to do everything they can to bring down what the price is where they got to cut that. Got to keep cutting back on supply and they're going to keep doing it. I mean, it's one big club. I mean, it's it's all it's ever been

the prince and the king hey what am i six years old nobility how about how about dictators in charge yeah yeah i just saw they're going to execute a couple they got three people they're going to chop their heads off this week that were uh arrested for crimes that they did as minors and they wait till they you know get a majority age before they chop their heads off this week that were arrested for crimes that they did as minors. And they wait till they, you know, get a majority age before they chop their heads off, I guess. Yeah.

Cause it's kind of bad. It's just King and Prince crap. You know, here, here, King, here boy, here Prince,

here Prince, give me a paw. King and Prince. We don't pee and we don't poo. We're better than you. George Collins said it's one big club and you ain't in it. And that's all it is. The club is in control.

Yeah, that's right. Uh, where do you see, um, uh, so you said you, you think, uh, in the big picture, we, we see the election coming up. They're going to pull everything that they can to make us happy before the election. Of course, we saw elements of that with a manipulation of the oil prices, you know, with the dumping out the strategic petroleum reserve to try to get a little temporary high, uh, from people to see the price of oil drop at the pumps. Uh, so they're going to do everything they can to pull out all the stops and try to make things look good. But I tell you, when you look at this, um, what is coming up with the election, I'm very pessimistic regardless of

what happens because I don't really see't really see anything at the top changing because of this embedded bureaucracy. So I think we need to start looking at what we can do at the local level. Any suggestions on that? Well, first on elections, you know, I'm forecasting that RFK Jr. is going to win. I said that the other day in a show. I did a show in the UK, and the guy was really surprised when I said that. And I said, yeah, to me, I look at it and you see the civil war, Trump just trashing everybody in the Republican party. So I said, you know, whenever that happens, it's the people who kind of lay out of this thing.

If they're not in the middle of the argument, they're the ones who benefit from it. And so you got this situation where, uh, they're, you know, Biden has committed a bunch of crimes and it's a real stench to everybody to see that he's not being prosecuted for these crimes. And Trump's going to be lobbying insults at him once he gets finished taking out the people on his own team. And so I said, so here's RFK Jr. over on the side, and he can move in, present himself as somebody who's not yelling, kicking and screaming at everybody else. I mean, it seems to me that, uh, you know, he's, he's coming up in the polls and it seems to me like that's something that he's going to do. I'm just, I'm not a supporter of, uh, RFK. I've got questions about the green agenda and all the rest of this stuff, which I think is,

is a very dangerous thing. Um, and, uh, but you know, I think i think that um he's going to come across as the only adult in the room well he's also saying he's almost repeating verbatim one of the the foundation of occupy peace close the bases overseas and bring the troops home and secure the homeland nobody's saying that he's against the united states ramping up the ukraine war he's the only candidate out there really at the top that's fighting against that and on and then he was down in in um on the on the uh and on the borders over there in mexico yeah on the texas uh yes we got to stop this immigration from flowing in. Yeah, you notice how Trump's not talking about that anymore.

And I think that that's one of the reasons why Tucker started talking about Trump as the peace candidate, because I think he sees that as a real selling point that's coming up. And people, even though the mainstream media doesn't want to cover it, doesn't want to talk about it, I think that is a real strong point. And he's trying to make that a Donald Trump issue. And Donald Trump doesn't have any credibility at all on that issue. You know, he said that type of stuff when he was running back in 2015 and 16.

But he doesn't have any credibility on the war and peace issue, none at all. None. And then again, let's go back to kennedy and and rather than trump and biden again i'm a numbers guy you know in a lot of ways and i look at the polls the people are disgusted with both of them in both parties yeah that's right paul's is showing it now this is very important young people more young people are going out to vote now. And you look at the polls of the young Democrats, only 25% of them want Biden. So this is important. They're going to go to Kennedy. And again, as you well know, I was talking Kennedy back in 2019, in 2000

and in 2022, in November and Decembercember saying that this would be the best candidate my my ticket was kennedy for president and judge andrew napolitano for vice president yeah i remember yeah yeah so i was the one and and so i see kennedy as as um So I see Kennedy as a definite possibility. I think he's going to be the next president of the United States, minus a wild card. You know, it's always the wild cards that come up, you know. Like Newsom jumping in or something like that. Well, yeah, Newsom's not going to.

People are so arrogant, he's not going to. He's going to definitely be the guy, I think, Newsom. And the people are tired of the lockdown. And the damage is done up here where I am. Woodstock, Rhinebeck, Kingston, all around here. It's dead at night now. Yeah. People have finished eating.

These 830, 9 o'clock, the restaurants are empty. The roads are empty. There's no nightlife anymore. Businesses have gone out of business, never came back to business. Well, it was conditioning. That was the whole thing about it. You know, to make it last that long, that's the thing that was really causing me.

So I could see this from the beginning. I knew they had practiced this for 20 years and all the rest of this stuff. And then it went on and on and on. And it's like they they're, they're creating new, um, yeah, a new normal that people are getting accustomed to this. They're going to get used to it. They're going to be afraid, especially in the areas like you're talking about in New York, where they're Democrats.

Uh, it just completely rearranged their minds and their priorities and how they wanted to live their lives. And I said, it's going to be impossible to get these people out of this thing. It's going on for so long. And that was the plan to let this drag on and on and on and on to, till they had established their new, um, you know, Overton window in people's minds. Go back to March of 2020.

When the COVID war began, it began in January, started heating up in February, and went full blast in March. In March, the World Health Organization called it, quote, a pandemic. There were less than 4,000 people dead. I think 10,000 globally out of 8 billion people. And you're calling it a pandemic?

What pandemic? How about the numbers? Everybody, by the way, calls it a pandemic. It wasn't a pandemic. 99.91% of the people are still alive. And the facts are, and again, we detailed it as it was happening and now, of course, it's

coming out. The people that died of COVID were elderly and mostly people with pre-existing comorbidities, particularly the reason why so many died in the United States, obesity, type 2 diabetics, and respiratory ailments. And there was a lot of uh financially incentivized medical malpractice and now we see that the excess deaths went way way up in 2021 and 2022 compared to the so-called pandemic after the trump shots got out there yep that's the key thing and the ventilators yeah did a great job too oh yeah yeah i remember how he dressed down the ceo of general motors because they weren't building the ventilators enough and then we see they're saying, yeah, these people are dying from bacterial pneumonia from your ventilators. That was what was killing them. It wasn't the COVID. It was that. But of course,

everybody that died, we were told they died of COVID. I just had a listener earlier in the show, Gerald, who is an undertaker. And he said, I'm going out to pick up my 10th body today. And he says, that's more than we, way more than we ever had during the so-called pandemic. He said, it's getting really bad. It keeps going up. Again, the data is coming out about obesity. I mean, this thing is really serious. You have 42% of Americans are obese.

42%, 70% overweight. are obese 42 70 overweight i mean you get again the numbers the article just came out matter of fact in your trans journal about um uh how the the death rate of young people has has escalated so rapidly and obesity is the one that oh and cancer rates among young people obesity is one of the, oh, and cancer rates among young people. Obesity is one of the prime reasons. They're eating crap. Again, if I got elected, I want a fat tax. The more you weigh, the more you pay. Because you're driving up the cost of everything because you're so unhealthy and you keep going to getting all this medical care and

it's driving the costs up but going back to it this all happened again my generation look at the pic go to woodstock yeah google it up look at the images yeah guys and girls had their shirts off there's no it's not blimptown everybody's in shape yeah what killed america the the kids is when the mothers went to work took their kid and put them in what they call a daycare center which is nothing more than a nursing home for kids yeah i agree i agree your kids are getting you're out of your mind when you're a kid, you need a mother or your parents, your great aunts or uncles to raise you. You need a family to raise.

You're not a stranger. That's the death of the family. The death of the family has been the death of everybody in so many different ways. You got it. I absolutely agree. Uh, we're out of time before we go.

I just want to remind everybody, uh, Gerald Slinty's trends journals. You can go to trends, uh, trends journal.com is a place to go. And of course, he's kindly offered to give

you a 10% discount if you use the code KNIGHT. Gerald, it's always great talking to you. It's been a while. We had a lot to cover today. I think we got over a lot of different things. Always great having you. Thanks for your fighting for peace. That is so important. Thank you so much. Appreciate it. Here's my latest t-shirt. There you go. Okay. Well, we'll go out

on that one right there. Thanks, Gerald. Have a good day. Thank you, everybody. We're going to do a rebroadcast on Monday. We'll be back on Tuesday. Thank you. The common man. They created common core to dumb down our children. They created common past to track and control us. Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing and the communist future. They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary.

But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God. That is what we have in common. That is what they want to take away. Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation. They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us.
