Starting point is 00:00:00 Happiness. We all know what it feels like, but sometimes it doesn't come easy. I'm Garvey Bailey, the host of Happy Enough, a new podcast from The Globe and Mail about our pursuit of happiness. We know people want to live more fulfilling and positive lives, but how do we actually do that? Is there a happiness code to crack? From our relationship with technology to whether money can really buy you happiness, we'll hear from both real people and experts to demystify this thing we're all searching for and hopefully find ways to be happy enough. You can find Happy Enough wherever you listen to podcasts. All right, welcome back.
Starting point is 00:00:57 And joining us now is Gerald Cilenti of Trends Journal. You can go to TrendsJournal.com and you can see samples of the publication. It's an amazing publication, about 300 pages each week. It's hyperlinked. It's like an online electronic book. So it's very easy to find this stuff. And there is not fluff there like you see everywhere else. I mean, it's just, it's gotten to the point where when I go to mainstream media, there's never anything of any substance at all.
Starting point is 00:01:21 You would think that there's nothing happening in the world except some celebrity stuff but uh again you can get 10 off of trends journal at uh trendsjournal.com uh gerald slinty great to have you on thank you for joining us thanks for having me and by the way it comes out it's about two dollars and fifty cents a week yeah so it's uh yeah we're giving people what they're not getting anywhere else again bbc just fired a whole load of people one after another there's no journalism it's all gone all gone that's right and you could think and this is what t-shirt that i got done back in 1992 beware a slick willie clinton right that's the guy that did away with the gave us the federal
Starting point is 00:02:02 communications act in 1996 that allowed the bigs to take over the entire journalism. Now you have six companies control over 92% of the media. And it simultaneously said you can't complain on a basis of health if we put up a cluster of antennas next to your school. I mean, it had a lot of different aspects to it. But yeah, they have consolidated the media it's kind of interesting i thought this week gerald uh when trump went to the uh chicago economics club and he was interviewed by that guy from bloomberg at one point he says we don't know anything and the wall street journal doesn't know anything either because the guy started throwing that out to him it's like yeah well he got that right uh
Starting point is 00:02:43 at least trump got that part of it right but of course the rest of it there really wasn't any any substance to it but in terms of a combative interview it was uh it was very interesting to watch but uh something that you've been talking about this entire year and gold has really taken off yesterday i was talking to tony arteman uh wise wolf gold and he was saying uh you know we're talking about the fact that a lot of people had been saying well by january maybe 2700 as we were doing the interview it's going up and setting all new highs i don't know where it ended up yesterday but during the interview we got up to uh 2692 so pretty close to 2700 it's just amazing and you said this at the very beginning of the year it's going to be a golden year for gold yep top trend for 2024 well it has been top gold yep and gold was back then when we made the
Starting point is 00:03:31 forecast was 2041 dollars and as we're speaking now gold is 2714 dollars it broke the 2700 level yeah wow yeah that's amazing because that's always a psychological thing you know people say is it $14. It broke the $2,700 level. Wow. That's amazing because that's always a psychological thing. People say, is it too expensive when it starts to flip over too many digits on the odometer and so they kind of get sheepish and maybe back off, but this thing is just continuing to go, isn't it? It's amazing. And again,
Starting point is 00:03:58 it could have a big downside yet. There's no question because it hasn't had this thing's been going straight up it went down like a couple of times this year maybe a hundred bucks or so but it could have a 200 300 drop but it's still way up you know so yeah nothing goes straight up and um again you have to look here as we're speaking. Oil prices are down some 2% today.
Starting point is 00:04:31 You're looking at Brent crude around $73, $74 a barrel. Because the global economy is slowing down. There's real danger ahead. IMF came out and said this week that the, here, IMF warns government debt to spike. Large increases in borrowing will boost the number, you ready? To $100 trillion this year. I mean, you can't make this crap up they can i mean you know the imf the international mafia federation oh excuse me monetary fund i forgot the um who could the united states when you look at the real numbers it's not 36 trillion dollars in debt it's about 260 trillion when you
Starting point is 00:05:22 put in social security all the other government expenditures, they have to pay off. The here, this from the article in an extreme scenario, government debt could hit 115% of global output, meaning a hundred. Each country is, is debt to GDP ratio is 115%.
Starting point is 00:05:47 The country's gross domestic product. According to the fund's calculations, U.S. government debt, it started this century, 24 years ago. Yeah. It was 60% of GDP.p now it's more than doubled wow wow more than doubled so what business could stay in business what person could keep their house and everything else by going way way way, deep, deep down in debt
Starting point is 00:06:26 and never going to be able to pay it off. Hey, but the government could do it. Hey, don't you know who we are? We're a crime syndicate. That's why gold prices. This is one of the reasons gold prices are going up. They're not talking about this. Number two is I mentioned oil prices oil prices should be
Starting point is 00:06:47 skyrocketing because what's going on in the middle east yet they're down because of the weak global economy germany is unofficially in a recession and they're going to be a recession next year this is the world's second largest third largest economy china's economy is crap the second largest economy that's why oil prices are going down because the global economy is slowing down and they're artificially propping it up with more cheap money and so so gold is going to keep going up as we see but of course it could have a it could have a strong downside there's you know nothing goes straight up but but overall we're very bullish on well and of course as you said many times you don't do predictions so you're not predicting where the price is going to be or when it's going to get to a particular spot
Starting point is 00:07:38 but you're looking at trends and and because of these things because of the debt because of the economic contraction and all the rest of this stuff. And then, of course, there's also the inflation too, right? That's a part of it, isn't it? All these things coming together. You know, inflation, nothing is being done about that, and nothing is being done about any of these issues. Everything the government is doing is making these things worse.
Starting point is 00:08:01 And so when you look at all these different things, that's why the trend, regardless of what happens in the near term or the short term, or regardless of the noise that we see on it, that's going to be, I think it's going to be trending up because none of these things, there's not any solutions on the horizon.
Starting point is 00:08:16 Nobody's even really talking about doing anything about these solutions. You know, when I saw- You got a hundred trillion dollars in debt, you can't make this crap up. Yeah, yeah. When I saw- China's. Yeah. Go ahead. China's debt to GDP ratio is over 300%.
Starting point is 00:08:30 Wow. Wow. And again, this is the world's second largest economy. They have their vacancy rates in apartments that they built. 60 million. Wow. 60 million apartments that they built that are vacant. Again, with every boom,
Starting point is 00:08:50 there's a bust. You look at the data again, you know, the, the luxury items we write about it in the trends journal each week. You know, one of our sayings, you know,
Starting point is 00:09:02 this is not our saying the fish rots from the head down so if you're seeing luxury sales go down you're you're seeing the whole economy go down so i'm sure i could find this article here quickly that um i forgot the name of it it's one of the big luxury firms here it is yeah This is an article from the... Louis Vuitton's owner seems surprised at how quickly Chinese consumers have closed their wallets and abandoned its brand. It has no obvious place to turn to
Starting point is 00:09:42 for next growth. Shares of LVMH fell nearly 4% in Paris on Wednesday after the world's biggest luxury company released third quarter results. All right. The luxury sales are going down. We've been writing about this month after month, year after year in the Trends Journal. Now, get this. This is so important.
Starting point is 00:10:12 Nobody talks about it. You look at China's GDP before Bill Clinton brought them into the World Trade Organization in 2001. They officially came in two weeks after 9-11 when nobody was watching. The GDP is like this, like 1970 to 2000. They came in, sky rots as companies in
Starting point is 00:10:35 Europe and the United States go over to China, give them all the manufacturing and technology they didn't have, so they can get their products made cheaply from slave labor so they can make more money. Okay, let's go back to 2000. You ready? Back in 2000, Chinese customers generated
Starting point is 00:10:54 just 1% of global luxury sales. Now, it's over a third. Wow. Over a third from nothing. So now, again, you got to look at this. With every boom, there's a bust.
Starting point is 00:11:14 The Chinese economy boomed like nothing else when all the manufacturing went over there. It was overbuilt like all booms. Their real estate 30%
Starting point is 00:11:31 of China's GDP is real estate related. And I said they got 60 million vacant apartments. Wow. It's a bust that's going to happen big time. And again, people are buying gold in countries where they see the problems because they know how bad things are going to get and the lower interest rates go the deeper the dollar falls the deeper the dollar falls the higher gold prices go up because gold
Starting point is 00:12:02 is dollar based so the dollar goes down other currencies cheaper to buy them with other currencies because the values of those currencies went up. This is just the beginning of the gold bull run. Yeah. Yeah. That's amazing. And you know, when we talk about the debt that you mentioned,
Starting point is 00:12:16 it was the first thing you brought in. I thought it was interesting this week because some, some political opposition research went back and found Trump talking in 1999 when he was going to run as a Democrat. He began running as a Democrat. And he was all focused on debt at the time. You know, we've got to pay off the debt. You know, we've got $5.7 trillion. And the way we're going to do it is we're going to have a 14.25% tax on the richest 1% of the people.
Starting point is 00:12:42 Anybody at the time had a wealth of $10 million more, so he's going to do a wealth tax. And that was because they were laser-focused on the debt. Here we are 25 years later. Who cares about the debt? Certainly not Trump. Certainly not La La. Nobody cares about it, right?
Starting point is 00:12:56 It's not an issue anymore. Matter of fact, you know, the way they're growing this, a trillion dollars every 90 days or so, and you look at Trump kicking things off back during his lockdown that he did you know three and a half trillion dollars they don't care about him he's running it like a casino now nobody cares about the debt that's why when you look at all of these
Starting point is 00:13:14 different issues whether you're talking about debt or whether you're talking about the weak economy or inflation even when you talk about how they weaponize the dollar and other people are trying to move away from it and all that these are all policies that nobody's even talking about retreating from and you talk about trump the casino didn't he did his casino go bust in atlantic city yeah yeah i think he had six casinos that went bust that's what i've always said i said this guy's supposed to be a great businessman how do you lose money with a casino i mean that's about the only thing that you can do that's easier than that is to have a central bank where you just print the money i mean a casino you go bankrupt at a casino what's the deal with that what again it's donald duck versus mickey mouse
Starting point is 00:13:56 it's the disney world white house presidential yeah what a disgust you know i gotta tell you you know as you well know mike i began my career working on political campaigns in westchester county the richest county in america i was the assistant to the secretary of the new york state senate and designed a course called american politics and campaign technology how to run political campaigns and i taught it at st john's university So I was, you know, you know the business. Yeah. Never in all my life have I seen such lack of interest in a presidential campaign as now. It is flat. It's flat. I mean, you don't want to know if Donald Trump is going to go do French fries at McDonald's soald's so he can own la la hairs i mean that's what it's about now right isn't it it's
Starting point is 00:14:49 about that kind of nonsense i'm saying there's no there's no dynamic going on right now yeah yeah i mean they're the hate trumpers and and there are the love harris's but that's very it's a minority of the people the the masses are in i'm telling you i've never never witnessed such a flat campaign in my life that's interesting yeah yeah we're not too far out i think we got maybe one more i i think uh the next time you come on two weeks from now uh that'll be the friday before the tuesday pageant and i don't even call it an election anymore i don't believe any of this stuff is real you know especially at the presidential level and even if you believed that it was real and that the votes were counted honestly i mean what difference is your vote going
Starting point is 00:15:34 to make and only seven of the states is it even any close uh is it close if they were to count it that way and even in those states it's not going to make any difference really and if you get these people in uh both of them are on the same page for virtually all of the existential issues and most of these existential problems are coming from the government and they're not going to fix it nope yeah it's a clown show it is it is all upon yeah we got to come up with another better word than calling them politicians. I mean, calling them low-life pieces of scum is too long a word. But we need a new name for it. What politicians?
Starting point is 00:16:15 So little pieces of low-life crap telling us what to do? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, and I love these pictures, you know. And he showed, there was just one with the clowns from the uk uh from the eu going to uh saudi arabia and and there they're walking on this red carpet with this clown guy dressed up the prince in this costume you know with a red carpet what's this red carpet crap every time these little jerks roll out a red carpet we're just plantation workers we're we're officials you know we're what what's this red carpet crap i remember the photo op are you talking about photo ops i remember the photo op when trump went there uh to the saudis and you know that he's kind of like hopping around he
Starting point is 00:16:58 and wilbur ross are hopping around with the uh the sword dance and then they've got all of them standing around with their hands on a glowing orb it's like whoever thought this is a good photo that looks about as sinister and weird as you can imagine they're weird little jerks yeah they're weird little arrogant moronic narcissistic jerks yeah i've had it with this clown crap they're destroying our lives in front of us that's right that's right as i said to you when we were young there was this thing called the ringling brothers and bonham and bailey circus step right up step right up see the freak show you don't have to pay for it you can see it out in the street all it's everywhere now look at the freaks yeah look at the freaks you know you're
Starting point is 00:17:47 and you you have focused also on nutrition and you've talked a lot about that in the past early before you came on i was talking about uh the fact that lab meat is past its sell date unless you're talking about selling it to politicians right uh the the the um there was a consultant and it was actually a mainstream media article, and this consultant was saying, I told him so. I told him this is never going to work. When you look at how expensive the ingredients are,
Starting point is 00:18:11 how long it takes to make it, the amount of energy is required, there's no way that it makes any business sense, and nobody wants to eat this stuff. But the problem is, is that these people like Gates and Branson are so connected to the, they own these politicians.
Starting point is 00:18:31 Look at how much money was spent on the last election overall it was over 14 billion dollars now that's why they get trillions of dollars uh in terms of government subsidies you know they always you like i've said before you give uh thousands you get back millions from these people you give the politicians millions you get back billions and when you give the politicians billions that means that there's trillions of dollars that are going to be coming out of there washington has become this massive black hole of graft and corruption and that's why these elections keep getting more and more expensive what do you what do you think elon musk is uh coming after with his 75 million dollar donation and his stumping for trump what it didn't uh what's his name sheldon adelson's wife gave him another 100 million or something yeah yeah that's right yeah that's right yeah they have their own little yeah they they do it so they don't go to
Starting point is 00:19:17 jail like dinesh d'Souza so they create a political action committee and they're the only person who donates to it it's like oh okay so then uh it's how they get around the the laws you know they know how to get around these laws these laws are crafted so they can do whatever they want that's just another example of it but you know it's kind of interesting we were talking about this yesterday in the audience uh and i we're looking at elon musk and right after elon musk gives million, Trump says, hey, I think we're going to make car loans tax deductible. And one of them said, I think it's only the deduction is only for the EVs. I don't know if it's only for EVs or if it's all car loans.
Starting point is 00:19:53 But either way, even if it's for all car loans, it's going to benefit Elon Musk more. So that's the kind of subtle way that you got the quid pro quo, the payoff of these donations into the politicians. Again, morons and imbeciles call them campaign contributions they're bribes and payoffs that's right investments and payoffs yeah what do you think little bill clinton look what this guy did look at all the money he's worth now yeah oh yeah doing away with the glass steagle act he does a speech for goldman sacks gets three hundred thousand dollars an hour look at this guy bs for free it had paybacks and it's chump change 75 million dollars for for that's nothing that's nothing with musk is worth well it's worry about 200 billion or something yeah i talked about that yesterday it's like 270 billion dollars and i said you know what the median uh net worth
Starting point is 00:20:51 of americans was was something like 190 000 so i said okay so it's even worse than this but i said let's just roughly say that he's got a million times more money than the average american does so that was like a 75 contribution from from you or not. That's it. Right? Yeah. That's nothing. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:08 And you're talking about, you know, the problems with the health of the country. This is an article in yesterday's New York Times. In UK, tackling obesity as drag on the economy. On Monday, the government announced an investment of $365 million for the pharmaceutical company Eli Lilly to get their weight loss drug. Eli Lilly, yeah. Hey, this is one of the first books i worked on natural healing how about how about stop eating crap yeah could you handle that no keep eating
Starting point is 00:21:54 the crap and get the olympic as well right yeah but now it goes on the telegraph in opinion piece said that the country's quote widening waistbands are also placing significant burden on our health service, noting that illnesses linked to obesity cost the country's health services roughly $14 billion a year so if i'm elected i want a fat tax the more you weigh the more you pay because it's costing us because you're eating crap and can't control yourself i gotta pay for it yeah you don't think i want to eat more you know i love to cook and i got a garden out here i make nice tomato sauce you don't think i want to eat all that pasta i make i gotta i gotta stop i can't keep eating and i gotta cut back how oh no we're going and here's what happened these obesity levels did not exist when we were
Starting point is 00:23:02 young guys that's right it's because women stopped raising their children and they went to work and they put them in nursing homes for kids that they call daycare centers. So you got a little kid rather than a mother giving it love and cooking for it. You got a stranger feeding it crap as you're out of your mind as a kid screaming and crying. And then your mother's coming home from work. She's exhausted. And she's giving you ultra-processed food crap to eat.
Starting point is 00:23:37 Yeah. Yeah. As I said, the Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus went out of business. You don't have to step right up, step right up, see the fat man.
Starting point is 00:23:47 They're out in the street everywhere. And the bearded lady. Now you can see bearded ladies all over the place. Tattooed lady. That's right. I think I told you this before. When I was in a band in college, we played a retired circus freak's New Year's Eve party down in Sarasota. You know, Ringling brothers were down there and um and i thought that was a weird gig but uh that's everyday life now yeah you know i
Starting point is 00:24:13 had my sister up here and in a nurse i took her out of a nursing home she passed on but anyway i had her sitting out here in a wheelchair she had two strokes in dimension in front of my building and she used to see these people walking by right i'm sitting next to her and i'm reading she'd go oh oh oh oh she never saw this she was in nursing over about 15 years she never saw so many people she was blown away and now it's become the new normal it's like my daughter when she came back from china we brought her back she didn't speak any english but she was about five years old uh when we adopted her and uh so we got together with some friends and everything and um
Starting point is 00:24:56 uh and they all wanted to uh get together and and pray over her right and so there's a pretty heavy lady that was there that was right next to her. And, uh, so they're talking and praying her. And, uh, she looks at this lady who's heavy and she takes her index and kind of pokes her in the belly.
Starting point is 00:25:14 Like, what is that? I've never seen that. It's like, what is that? And we were so embarrassed. It was, but,
Starting point is 00:25:22 uh, it was, uh, yeah, that's, it's something that you just didn't see. She didn't see. And it's something that we didn't see when we were growing up.
Starting point is 00:25:29 But of course, the solution, the solution is to buy Eli Lilly's drugs and give them to everybody. We don't want to stop everybody on the high fructose corn syrup, right? I mean, they don't give that to the people in Mexico. You look at the Mexican Coke,
Starting point is 00:25:44 what they do, they give them even regular sugar and they give them glass bottles. Here they give us the high fructose corn syrup and they put it in plastic bottles and they put it in aluminum cans. Right. They want to kill us. It's truly amazing. No, it's disgusting. What's happened? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:02 And again, it's only going to keep getting worse. Yeah. Yeah. Well, they know how to work their way in. I mean, when you look at, Pfizer gives Trump a million dollars during his transition period and all the rest of the stuff. I don't know how much Eli Lilly gave him, but he appointed the CEO of Eli Lilly, Alex Azar, as the head of HHS.
Starting point is 00:26:21 And he stayed there for the entire four years. And he was the guy who really kicked off all this pandemic stuff was that eli lilly ceo so i mean they completely own these politicians it was hl minkin that said an election is an advanced auction of stolen goods it hasn't changed in 100 years and it's always been that way hasn't it look at that we got two parties running the gang for how many centuries yeah two parties what parties again look at the low-life pieces of crap that are telling us what to do i know you look up to chucky schumer no i like alex i like lindsey graham oh how about Adam Schiff? One little clown jerk after another. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:07 Look at him. Look at the. Oh, how about Mike Johnson? That is a little boy of nothing. Yeah. How's the majority? Mitch McConnell. You know, Mitch is out of his mind.
Starting point is 00:27:18 McConnell. Yeah. Mr. Freeze, I guess. Yeah. It's a sick job, but it's in every country yeah the political systems are a crime syndicate that's right well i mean just look back at 2020 i said this over and over again uh it didn't matter what country it didn't matter what their political philosophy was they could be trump who's supposed to be a conservative or trudeau
Starting point is 00:27:42 supposed to be a socialist it didn't matter who's supposed to be a socialist. It didn't matter. They all did the same thing at the same time. They were all executing the instructions like Hydra. You know, I mean, it's like they're whispering into each other's ears at these meetings that they go to and they're all doing the same thing. None of the so-called
Starting point is 00:27:59 political philosophies made any difference whatsoever and all the politicians were in on it. That's so concerning. It's only going to come from the bottom up, I think, if anything's going to happen. Again, the people have to do something. I'm doing what I can. I have launched Occupy Peace.
Starting point is 00:28:16 There's that quote. I know you're into the religious stuff. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of god yeah that's right matthew 5 9 salenti 10 24 hellish are the warmongers they're the children of satan yeah yeah yeah and where where are all these religions that's right where are all these religions? That's right. Where are all the, how come they're not peacemakers? Where are all the religions? They're not,
Starting point is 00:28:51 I guess you can't call them the children of God. They all sell their religious stuff. Where are they? How come they're not there for peace? What's going on in Israel, what they are doing, bombs away over Beirut, throughout Lebanon,
Starting point is 00:29:04 there's like 5 million people in a country the size of Connecticut that have left their homes because they're bombing them to ruins. They're getting Hezbollah. They're getting Hezbollah. They're in every church. They're in every school. They're in every mosque. They're in every hospital.
Starting point is 00:29:21 Oh, they just killed a bunch more people in a school it's um yeah just before i came on the air this is on anti-war israeli strike on gaza school kills 28 children wow wow i'll tell you the thing that really bothered me and it got the headline here but we we can't show it um but um it was uh this was from The Last American Vagabond, if people want to see these pictures here. Israel's surrender or starve. The so-called General's Plan. Northern Gaza is nothing new. And the pictures of these babies who are starving, they're nothing but bones.
Starting point is 00:30:00 And we see the sunken eyes and you see starving babies. How in the world can that not move christians they are so blinded and bullheaded about the eschatology the end of the world you know we gotta we gotta there we go good thank you karen for getting that up that's great look at that that that is unbelievable uh that you have have that there and And how can you look at that and look the other way and cheerlead the war and give them a blank check
Starting point is 00:30:31 to do anything that they want to? When you look at how long this is drug on, if you look at how it is targeted civilian population, there is absolutely no way that is morally justified. None whatsoever. How can you excuse that because of your theology or your eschatology where you think that this is all great because it's all being done by Israel so they can do whatever they want? That is a really dangerous thing, and it's not my understanding of the bible at all if that's what your eschatology tells you you better reinterpret the difficult passages in terms of the ones that are very clear and it's very clear that you don't
Starting point is 00:31:11 do that to children and i don't care all your charts and your graphs and all the rest of the stuff and how you think it's all related that's a bunch of nonsense if it gets you to back that kind of treatment to children and to civilians. Again, these clowns like a clown, like the little arrogant nothing of a boy, Mike Johnson, calls himself an evangelical Christian. What Christ are you talking about? I know. What Christ are you talking about? Hey, and all you people that say, you know, that God gave you this land,
Starting point is 00:31:43 I don't want to hear your fairy tale. Save it for somebody else. His majesty's government gave it to you you know in in in in 1917 with the balfour declaration his majesty some murderous sob that if he was italian they called the mafia oh no no that's the king of england we could kill anybody anywhere so that you have to speak properly about it again read the balfour declaration his majesty's government declares the land in palestine will be settled by the jewish people and we will use our best endeavors to achieve this objective that's the letter from balfour to the rothschilds Yeah. They gave them money to make it happen. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:26 Oh, it's insane. Oh, and then the United Nations invented this in what? 1947? November 29th. 60 countries. That's all that were in the United Nations back then. 60, 70 countries. We declare.
Starting point is 00:32:41 Who the hell are you to declare this stuff? Yeah. Who are you to declare this? Hey, we got paid off. Shut the hell up, Salanti. Well, when you to declare this stuff? Who are you to declare this? Hey, we got paid off. Shut the hell up, Salanti. Well, when we look at this, I just don't understand how Christians can justify this. When we look at a justified war, that is based on fundamental Christian principles that are very, very clearly stated. And that is we all know that war is a horrible thing.
Starting point is 00:33:06 And so the point is you don't start it unless it is absolutely essential. But, of course, we don't follow that anymore as a nation here in America. Israel doesn't follow it. It's now, when are we going to do preemptive strikes? That was what was in the vice presidential debate. When are you going to do a preemptive strike against the people we think might do something we don't like at some point? Well, that's unjustified. That's immoral. And the fact is that because war is so horrible, you're always trying to find an end point to stop it. Our government doesn't care. Israel's government doesn't care.
Starting point is 00:33:33 Nobody wants to talk about a peace process for Ukraine or for what's going on with Israel and Gaza or Lebanon. Nobody wants to talk about that. Instead, it's more war. Let's strike them before they strike us. That was always considered to be infamy. And it still is. That's why they talk about October 7th so long, because they know fundamentally people, everyone, everywhere, regardless of their religion, understands the immorality of preemptive war. And yet our media and our government act as if that is our new policy, and it's okay now. Again. Just keep it going forever. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:10 There's that one of my books was my favorite, what Sidney gave Honey Boy. Sidney is the Neapolitan dialect for auntie. Yes. And Doris Roberts, who played the mother on Everyone Loves Raymond, her last starring role was playing my aunt. And Doris Roberts died, unfortunately, 15 minutes into the movie. And you can get the movie on YouTube. I'm mentioning this because it's about how I got blacklisted from the media. I used to be on Oprah, The Today Show,
Starting point is 00:34:46 Good Morning America, everybody. ABC, CBS, NPR, everybody. When USA Today was a big newspaper, used to run my top trends every year. And I used to be in a paper all the time and we put out the top trends back then in mid-december so in december 2000 the headline in usa today read 2001 won't be our year trend seer says you could look it up and i warned that a wave of anti-americanism was sweeping the globe and americans wouldn't be safe at home or abroad
Starting point is 00:35:31 and then 9-11 happens i'm on all the media how did you know this well you know bill clinton bombs away over baghdad serbian war yugoslav war and on and on, what's going on in the Middle East. And that's when they started banning me. When little Georgie Bush said, we're going to get that guy Osama bin Laden dead or alive. And 90% of the people swallowed his crap. I said, there's no way America is going to beat them. I said, if Alexander the Great couldn't pull it off,
Starting point is 00:36:06 if the British at the height of the British Empire into the Valley of Death drove the 600, couldn't do it. If the Russians couldn't do it, and they're right near it, what makes you think we're going to do it when we haven't won a war since World War II? Why, you anti-American? How dare you say that? That was the attitude. I got blacklisted from everybody.
Starting point is 00:36:28 The building that I'm in over here, I was one day away from losing back in 2007. That's how broke I was. You're not allowed to come out against war. That's right. Look what they did to that guy, Phil Donahue. Yeah. When he came out against the Iraq war. I talked about that when he died. And, you know, there's Iraq war. I talked about that when he died. And, and you know, there's a clip where he talked about that in retrospect, you know,
Starting point is 00:36:48 what happened with that. Yep. And what got me back is that a small newspaper did an interview with me in 2007. And I took out the domain name, the panic of 08 and AP picked it up. And that's when all the media wanted me back on. So we came back to money they want you on.
Starting point is 00:37:07 Comes to war they don't want you on. There's not one person on any of the media speaking about peace. Not one. And yet the wars are bankers' wars, right? The wars are about money. It's just that they don't see it as being about money, but that's really what it is. And we've got the finance minister, I think it was, in Israel, if I'm not mistaken,
Starting point is 00:37:26 was the one who said, yeah, we're on a path. We're going to head all the way up to Damascus. Yep. A road to Damascus experience. Yep. And they're not going to see Jesus on that road. They're going to go up there to kill everything. It's all about a massive land grab.
Starting point is 00:37:39 And Caitlin Johnston says, you know, and now we have it. It's not about the hostages. It's not about Hamas. It's not about the hostages. It's not about Hamas. It's not about it's about the land grab. You've got Netanyahu's Likud party issues an invitation to an event that was titled, quote, preparing to settle Gaza. As Kushner has talked about how, yeah, we're going to scout out the places where we want seaside resorts and stuff like that. He said that's right he said that jared kushner said this talk we wrote about it in detail in the trends journal at harvard that this is very valuable quote waterfront property yeah and that the palestinians should be moved
Starting point is 00:38:16 into the negev desert well just kill them i mean why why bother to move them that was by the way that was a tweet that was put out by Haaretz. Netanyahu's Likud party issues an invitation to an event titled, Preparing to Settle Gaza. There you go. And how about this one? The U.S. gave 30 days for Israel to bring food in there or they might cut their weapons supply?
Starting point is 00:38:48 30 days. How about 30 minutes? And now the United States says they're not going to cut the weapons supply to Israel. They're going to keep letting them kill and bomb. These are demonic evil people. Again, like I said, what the Quakers all died in an earthquake? where are you on yeah where are you on yeah it's
Starting point is 00:39:11 crazy yeah we did where we were all the catholic priests where they have the little boys i mean how come you're not over there out in the street for uh protesting yeah that's right yeah we talk about all the time you know protests uh against abortion but you know it's also when they kill people with bombs that's fine we should also we should also protest that and yet it's amazing to me to see you know some so many will just be passive and not say anything about it others will actively support it and that's the thing that that i you know it is just yeah i understand people not you know the fog of war and the claims and the counterclaims and all the rest of stuff
Starting point is 00:39:51 but when you come in and say yeah kill everybody and you're a christian and you're a christian supposedly christian leader uh that is just beyond the pale did you see that list of evangelicals that support this war oh yeah oh yeah i see them all the time but there's a whole list yeah oh i've seen these guys for the longest time supporting this and and you know proudly supporting it and and you know coming out and saying uh i think it was john mcarthur it goes on with ben shapiro and says yeah they're amalek in other words kill everybody kill everybody that's just like uh you're saying you get carte blanche to kill everybody how in the world does that show christ who said my kingdom is not of this world yeah uh you know it is of this world for these people for these
Starting point is 00:40:36 people that's all it is it's about geopolitics and the geopolitics trumps their ethics uh again but there's been going on like i I said, what's your favorite war? You like the Peloponnesian War? Yeah. I like the War of Roses. It was lovely. How about the Hundred Year War? I mean, this crap has been going on forever.
Starting point is 00:40:55 But we are now at a point of nuclear annihilation that is a reality. You saw what... Yeah, let's talk about that and what's going on in ukraine because you know you got zielinski out there still selling this stuff and he has really become incredibly odious to people and yet uh they're still pushing this what do you think is going on with that is it um is you know they keep pushing further and further and actually you know russia it is kind of surprising uh after they made that incursion in that area they've been there now for a couple of months and russia has not pushed them
Starting point is 00:41:29 out yet so russia is looking militarily weak that's not a good sign because again that is another sign that would push us towards a a nuclear act of an act of nuclear desperation uh if um if it comes to that uh so you know if they can't win with if they're going to lose with conventional weapons nuclear desperation if it comes to that. So, you know, if they can't win with, if they're going to lose with conventional weapons, it looks like they might use nuclear weapons. What do you think is the situation in terms of, is he waiting to see who is installed with this pseudo election here? What's going on with that?
Starting point is 00:42:02 Putin said that if you give advanced weaponry to strike deep into Russia and we feel that we are being threatened, we will use nuclear weapons. And as for Russia, this is an article
Starting point is 00:42:19 in Tuesday's New York Times. Russia is clawing back land Ukraine captured. Russia has recaptured a few villages in the western borderlands that Ukraine invaded over the summer. So they're throwing them out.
Starting point is 00:42:41 And again, there's no way that Ukraine is going to defeat russia as i say if napoleon couldn't do it with 420 000 troops attacking moscow and coming back with 10 000 in 1812 if operation barbarossa hitler's killing over 25 million russians and they were the first ones to defeat the germans how is ukraine going to win they're not but they're going to escalate this there'll 25 million Russians and they were the first ones to defeat the Germans. How is Ukraine going to win? They're not. But they're going to escalate this. There'll be an attack on a nuclear plant. There'll be a false flag
Starting point is 00:43:12 event that will unite the people behind it. The war is just going to keep escalating. And as I said, we are on the verge of nuclear war and Israel is going to ramp up the war against Iran. And Iran, again again 91 million people verse 9 million in israel or 20 of which are arab so we got 7 million against 9 million
Starting point is 00:43:38 91 million rather who's going to win and you have to be good at math to figure this out yeah americans need to take a look at the map of the Middle East and look at how much bigger Iran is than Iraq. Just the geographical size. Again, the same type of thing you're talking about with Russia and Ukraine. The massive disparity there between sizes is absolutely insane. But, of course, we're now expanding even, you know, we're going on more aggressively coming after all these different places. Even the U.S. has now sent in B-2 stealth bombers to hit the Houthis in Yemen to bomb their underground bunkers. This is the first time this has happened to use B-2 stealth bombers to do that, to go after these guys who have very low technology, but
Starting point is 00:44:27 they've been very effective. But we're doing this now for Saudi Arabia. So we give bombs and missiles for Lebanon, for Israel, and for Gaza. And then for the Saudis, we get involved in their civil war with the Houthis. We have to get involved in every one of these things. And of course, our track record, as you pointed out, we haven't won anything since World War II. Yep. And we couldn't won anything since World War II. Yep.
Starting point is 00:44:46 And we couldn't have won it without the Russians. That's what nobody talks about. Yeah. Yeah. And, again, this is serious. And when you mentioned about Yemen, people have no idea, back on the Obama administration, they called him the Nobel Peace of Crap Prize winner, that arrogant little clown boy who's now a Secretary of State. Now, Antony Blinken was under Secretary of State under Obama. piece of crap prize winner that arrogant little clown boy who's our secretary of state now anthony
Starting point is 00:45:05 blinken was under secretary of state under uh obama going to uh saudi arabia to give them strategical uh abilities to defeat the houthis when they launched the war back in 2014 and they overthrew the the government it's none of my business what's going on with the yemen and what people don't understand either is let's go back to the history of saudi arabia a gang that was invented what 1934 and what they do as soon as they created this thing they invaded yemen the houthis the Houthis are right up in that area. The Saudis have been going after the Houthis since they took over the government.
Starting point is 00:45:51 Yet we're supplying our refueling Saudi jets back when they launched the war to bomb the hell out of the people in Yemen. About some 360,000 people were killed, and over 50% of them were children under five.
Starting point is 00:46:14 Yeah. And we look at our allies, our allies of Saudi Arabia. They've set a new record for head chopping this year in terms of execution and stuff. I mean, people, you look at some of the stuff that they do, like they dismembered Khashoggi. But nothing that they do ever stops anything. It should tell everybody something about the nature and the character of our government leaders, that these are the kinds of allies that they want us to have.
Starting point is 00:46:41 It should also tell us that there's not any good sides in any of these conflicts either it's not about that it's about trying to stop this uh ongoing war for no good reason uh there's not a good side and a bad side in this that's what they always want to get everybody to believe that you know you got well the lesser two evils or you got a good guys you got bad guys here it's not none of that that is the case in any of these wars. No, again, it's none of my business. That's right, yeah. Again, I read at the rally, I read George Washington's farewell address.
Starting point is 00:47:14 This is a real man that fought, not like these little nothing clown boys that couldn't fight the way out of a paper bag. You pull these guys out man to man, they wouldn't know what to do. Yeah. Come here, Clinton. Come over here and try wouldn't know what to do. Come here, Clinton. Come over here and try
Starting point is 00:47:28 to tell me what to do. Come over here. Don't you talk to me like that. Yeah. Biden, Obama, Trump, these guys couldn't fight. A real man that fought is farewell address. Don't become involved in any
Starting point is 00:47:43 foreign entanglements. Don't love a nation. Don't hate a nation. If you do, you become a slave to them. He said, basically, this stuff has been going on for thousands of years. We're not going to fix it, and it's none of our business. Our business is
Starting point is 00:47:59 America. That's it. That's it. You only attack the attacker. That's it. That's it. You only attack the attacker. That's it. You only attack, you don't attack somebody, I think they were going to attack me. If I get in a fight,
Starting point is 00:48:16 what if you get, somebody said something to you, you don't like what they said, and you hit them. Oh, you'd be in jail. You only attack the attacker so what they want what i'm saying is all of these people these little gutless clown boys and girls have total disrespect for our founding fathers total that's right that's right and of course congress doesn't do anything you know when we talk about the futility of the presidential election, take a look at the futility of Congress.
Starting point is 00:48:49 What are they doing about anything? They don't do it domestically. They have turned us over to an unelected cabal of bureaucrats. And for the past 10 months, as Michael Tracy says, the U.S. has been bombing Yemen on behalf of other countries, on behalf of Israel, on the behalf of Saudi Arabia. And Congress refuses to take action, refuses to talk about this. And, of course, neither do the presidential candidates talk about it. The same type of thing we have seen over and over again with the so-called treaties like the Parisis climate accord you know we're talking about china um and you know they're they're how everything was handed to them on a silver platter uh by clinton and on uh letting
Starting point is 00:49:31 them uh manipulate currencies copyright violations slave labor but what they've really done is just give them a monopoly on cheap energy uh they can build as many power plants as they wish they can be as dirty as they wish china and india largest populations, and yet we've all got to reduce all of our power supply. So they hand this stuff on a silver platter to them, and they do it all in the name of the Paris Climate Accord, which is a treaty that was never ratified. Trump pretends it's ratified. Well, I've got to wait four years to get out of it. All that nonsense. It was never a treaty. Congress doesn't declare war. Senate doesn't vote on treaties.
Starting point is 00:50:10 They're just sitting there collecting money to shovel over to other people. It's just a corrupt, useless appendage what's happening in Washington. You're 100% right. What you said about the bureaucrats. Yeah. These are the most disgusting human beings around. These are people that can't get a job in the real world, that suck into the political system, and they become the most arrogant.
Starting point is 00:50:35 Yeah. They become the most arrogant. You look at EPA. The EPA is shutting down our cars, shutting down our power grid now, and it's just a bureaucracy that wants to do whatever it wants. And the same thing is true of the you know it's just a bureaucracy wants to do whatever it wants and the same thing is true the pentagon it's just a bureaucracy and they're going to find some justification some reason to go participate in a war and they will never be held accountable to congress which is supposed to be our representatives they'll never be held accountable to the constitution and so now the pentagon is just another one of these predatory bureaucracies that does as it wishes in defiance of law, constitution, and a disinterested Congress that doesn't care at all.
Starting point is 00:51:12 It's amazing. Again, Dwight D. Eisenhower, five-star general, supreme commander of the Allied forces. The military-industrial complex is robbing the nation of the genius of the scientists sweat of the labors and the future of the children and here we are that's right well it is uh it is amazing uh we will um again next time we get together it's going to be just before uh the election and the big pageant the big show and uh they are moving people for some purpose and i'm kind of worried that they're trying to set up a civil war with the different factions because there's two factions that are just slavishly devoted to one of these two candidates and the media is so um you know
Starting point is 00:51:57 focused on on cheering one side or the other neither side is going to believe it when they hand it to the other people. We're still, we're, again, I'm not voting. The last person I voted for was Ron Paul for president. Yeah. I'm not voting for any of them. Yeah. And you talked about lesser of two evils before.
Starting point is 00:52:16 I call it the Pope a dope. He said, vote for a lesser of two evils. Did you see that a couple of weeks ago? Yeah. Anyway, people keep using, misusingusing the term calling these other democrats liberals this is the definition of liberal willing to respect or accept behavior or opinions different from one's own open to new ideas. These are not liberals. They're libtards. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:48 So people keep misinterpreting that word. Yeah. And I'm in libtard land up here in New York. Holy Christ. This is terrible. Yeah. They're not about liberty or anything. You know,
Starting point is 00:53:00 a lot of people talk about classic classical liberty or classical liberal, but they stole that name because it was good. you know a lot of people talk about classic classical liberty or classical liberal um but they stole that name because it was good that's what they steal everything including the labels you're right yeah but one time there were liberals there was but not anymore yeah that's right that's right again bill clinton killed the democratic party they call them i figure what they call the new democratic something he changed the whole game he the whole game. And he's a piece of crap, a murderer. Every time he got caught with his pants down, he said, bombs away over Baghdad. You know that, what's his name? Madeline, not all that bright, may she rot in hell.
Starting point is 00:53:40 Yeah. When asked on Leslie Stahl is the lives of over 500 000 iraqi children under the age of five that have died because what bill clinton has done to iraq worth the price and she said yes it is yeah i know totally up anybody you could see you see it yeah totally unashamed of what she's done i mean you know you would think that that was what was so amazing about that you would think she'd try to say well it's sad but you know we had to do it no it's just yeah it's worth it i don't care really just doesn't care and that's the way these people are well again folks uh you can save uh 10 off the price of trends journal use the code night and you can get it for 250 a week
Starting point is 00:54:22 as gerald has pointed out many times a wall Wall Street Journal, which, as Trump pointed out this week, is wrong about everything, even if they talk about something of any substance, which they usually don't. The Wall Street Journal is $5 a day. So think about that. It's 10 times the price. And you get way more than 10 times the information from Trends Journal. Trendsjournal.com.
