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. Using free speech to free minds. You're listening to The David Knight Show. As the clock strikes 13, it's Friday, Monday, the 14th of October, Year of Our Lord 2024.

Well, today we're going to talk about FEMA. We're now at the stage where they're looking at property condemnation, and we're going to talk about what's involved with that, as well as some more eyewitness reports about what is happening there. And we're also going to talk about Elon's latest hustle, his self-driving cars his miraculous robots that appear to be fake and we're going to talk about martial law censorship and also secession reason has a mag has an article about that what is happening in texas and elsewhere we'll be right back stay with us Thank you. let's talk a little bit about what's going on with fema and of course the federal government is uh now starting to sniff around the people after uh not showing up for a week after blocking supplies. And yes, this is really happening.

I'm getting really sick and tired of the establishment media. People like Glenn Beck and others going there and doing events with FEMA to tell you that everything is fine. You're going to believe Glenn Beck. Are you going to believe the people who are there? I have seen him do this kind of stuff with the Bundy Ranch before. The controlled opposition that they use for these conservative MAGA people is just astounding. So the federal government has got its flood maps, and their flood maps are not really accurate in terms of where the floods were.

For example, if you look at this, you can see their 100-year flood plain on the one side. This is in the areas of Swannanoa and other places. Also, you can see it in Asheville. And then there was another 100-year flood plain put out by First Street. And you can see how very different they are. And that makes a big difference when you're looking for a house. You have that on the realtor.com and others showing if it's in a 100-year floodplain.

And you need to take that in consideration. And in some cases, if you're getting a federally subsidized loan like a FHA or something like that, you have to have flood insurance if it is in that zone. But you would want to know that as a buyer one way or the other. Federal government's flood maps, which are used nationwide to signal areas that are vulnerable to inundation, vastly underestimated the flood risk to the properties and parts of North Carolina devastated by Hurricane Helene. According to data that was analyzed by the Washingtonhington post this is not coming from conservative media this is saying fema if it ever does anything is doing it wrong um a uh just two percent of properties in the mountainous countries of western north carolina fall inside marked as having a special risk of flooding

which compels homeowners to buy flood insurance if they want to get a federally backed mortgage and indicates where fema sees a risk of a one in 100 year flood now this is being used by the washington post to push the idea of climate change of of course. It's not climate change, first of all. And again, we have this back and forth now, every hurricane from the... And look, I believe that... I don't believe climate change at all. And you know that if you listen to this program.

And I do believe that there's geoengineering going on. There's no question about that in my mind. But not everything that happens is a product's geoengineering going on. There's no question about that in my mind. But not everything that happens is a product of geoengineering. 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. But the people are using, the people with Washington Post and the left are using every weather event as anecdotal proof of climate change. And that's what they're doing with this as well. Well, because of climate change, we've really got to update these maps. No, you don't. There was a flood, as I showed the other day, there was a flood a century ago in Asheville. This is only like a foot or so higher uh and so this is not climate change but they say the discrepancy shows how the agency's maps which rely on floods in the past don't take into account climate change everything everything is used to push their agenda of climate change But experts say the maps need to be urgently updated to inform homeowners and prospective

residents of these actual risks because of climate change. Well, the other question that is out here, besides the fact that it'll be used for political purposes, it'll be used in the political purposes of the left always the climate mcguffin but what is happening to the poor people that have had a great deal of damage what happens when fema buys your house says reason and they look at a couple of different scenarios here sometimes it can be voluntary and sometimes it can be mandatory and the key thing is that the mandatory has happened not from fema but it has happened from local governments how many times have you heard me say all politics is local and if we want to stop this kind of stuff we've got to pay attention

to what's going on the local level that's why why they want you so blinders on about everything except Trump versus Lala. That wag the dog show is all about making sure that you don't understand what is happening and you don't know who the players are in your area and that you're not doing anything to protect your rights and your property and your community. You got to focus everything on Washington and not just on Washington, which is useless your property and your community. You've got to focus everything on Washington and not just on Washington, which is useless enough in and of itself. How many hundreds of thousands of bureaucrats are there that never, ever change, regardless of who goes in?

They didn't drain the swamp. Trump was in charge of the swamp. He didn't drain any of it. But how many of these permanently entrenched bureaucracies and bureaucrats are going to, do you have any control over? Zero. And your members of Congress are not doing anything at all. Nothing at all.

Even when you talk, even this was sent to me by a listener, even Thomas Massey, when somebody engaged him about when are you going to stop these vaccines? He mutes the guy, mutes the guy. Thomas Massey muted the guy. You think anybody in Congress cares about the vital existential issues that we face? No, they got their geopolitics going on. They got their wars going on. How can they grift more money? How can they?

Lala Harris got a billion dollars already. And we're not even at the election yet. Saturday Night Live had a funny thing about that. Yeah. Yeah. Well, you've raised a billion dollars. She says, yes, I know. know he says why aren't you winning she says i screamed that into my pillow every night okay well let's take a look at fema and your house as hurricane damage mounts says reason the government is buying

and sometimes seizing homes and flood prone areas sparking concern over property rights, and accusations of discrimination. And the reason they say that is because in Houston, the Houston area, they came in and they made it mandatory in predominantly Hispanic areas, but in the white-majority areas areas they made it voluntary well i don't know enough to say whether not it was discrimination or not i seriously doubt it and houston i mean they've got a person there who is hispanic running it uh she's very young she came into this country she was brought in to go to harvard and you know they groomed her and put her in this position very early and she didn't become a

citizen until she was a college student in Harvard and then immediately they put her in as the the judge of Harris County which in Texas that's the highest elected position there the judges of the county is the highest elected position. So I doubt that's what that is. But let's talk about what's going on with the buying of the houses. Rebuilding what was lost will take years, of course, as we've been saying. As devastating as these storms have been, they're sadly not unique. Property damage from storms and flooding is on the rise,

and storms resulting in over a billion dollars in damages have become more frequent in recent years. Maybe we could just rechannel all of that money that's going to be used by just a single candidate to propagandize you. And to create this tribalism that is used to control us. I've never been more disgusted with the presidential elections, and it's not simply because of the awful candidates that we've got. I'm disgusted at the way that I see people still acting after they've seen all this stuff, but we'll get into that later. Back to this again.

I keep getting distracted from what's going on with FEMA and your property. The prospect of repeatedly having to rebuild properties in storm-prone areas has led some governments to pursue an unusual solution to the problem by the properties themselves. And so you've got HUD and you've got FEMA have developed programs to use disaster relief funds. I thought they'd already given that to the illegal immigrants to purchase homes in floods or storm prone areas the idea is that keeping such vulnerable properties vacant will

save money in the long run because they don't need to be continually rebuilt after the storms is that what you think is happening here well we're just going to seize your property because, you know, this keeps flooding. We're not going to allow you the option of doing something about it yourself. Besides, there's some mineral resources that are here that we really would like to have. I have seen this kind of game run, the scam run locally for the longest time. And it didn't necessarily have to be predicated on a disaster you know i'll just i've told this story before but let me just say it briefly in tampa in tampa uh the mayor at the time was sandy friedman and there were a couple of houses my dad when he retired he, he bought some houses,

and he had done some of this all of his life, but he was maintaining some of these rental properties, but he couldn't do it very long, and so what he did was he sold them to individual homeowners. They're very small homes, not very expensive, and the city of Tampa would go around and say, well, you know, I think you need to repaint your house, not very expensive. And the city of Tampa would go around and say, well, you know, I think you need to repaint your house.

And if you don't repaint your house, we're going to start hitting you with $100 a day fines. And, you know, before long, they start compounding with interest and they can take somebody's home. And so the people were poor. They didn't know what to do. They contacted my sister at the time was managing things because she was there. I was not in Tampa.

And she went down to the hearing. And there was one lady who said, well, you know, somebody dropped this railroad tie on the back of my house here in this alleyway. And she called the city of Tampa to pick it up. And they came out, and instead of picking it up, they wrote out a citation to her. Said, you've got to remove this, because I can't physically lift that, and I don't have the money to pay somebody to do this. They started accumulating fines, and she wound up in that court, because they were trying to take her property. And so she's telling the story, and the the judge said was that on your property or not and a guy jumped up that was there in the in the courtroom in the audience or whatever you call it he said don't answer that question he was an advocate for these people that the government

city of tampa was trying to steal their property Well, it wasn't because they had a lithium mine or a quartz mine or something like that. They had a gold mine because they wanted, if they could seize enough pieces of property that way, then they could come in on the cheap and condemn the other property and give people something.

So they could turn the property over to developers who wanted to build the skyscrapers that you see everywhere in Tampa now. This is about 45 years ago, I guess. And so that was the kind of game they were playing there. Sandy Friedman did it so much that the people who knew about this called her Sandlot Friedman. Sandlot Friedman. And it was despicable. But I've seen this done, and folks, it's done at the local level.

Even with FEMA's involvement here, you have to know what's going on at the local level. And you've got to make sure you have people like Sandy Friedman running uh or lena hildalgo in houston or whatever you you want to make sure you don't have these kinds of people running your local government because as i've said all along they can make things much much worse this is not theory we saw it in 2020 if you got bad local officials they could make it much much worse than f Fauci and Trump wanted it to be. Or they could kind of nullify what Fauci and Trump wanted. And so, again, is that really the purpose? Nowhere in here does reason talk about any motivations for why a government would want to take people's property in North Carolina.

But we know all about that, don't we? People who were pushing back against the mine expansion and these critical mines, one of, if not the largest deposits of lithium in the world, I think perhaps the biggest one in the U.S., plus it's near an area where there's ample water, which is not what they've had in these other lithium mines and then a quartz mine that is the sole source worldwide of a particular type of quartz that has to be used in the state-of-the-art semiconductor manufacturing and so they want to expand these things, and local residents did not want that because it has massive environmental impacts on the water and many other things,

polluting it, using it. So voluntary buyout programs have been implemented in over 1,000 counties and have been used to relocate almost 50,000 households throughout the country. The situation is very different when the buyout ceases to be voluntary, a little known provision and the hazard mitigation and relocation assistance act of 1993 who was president then Bill Clinton, right? Went through the Clinton administration and, um, uh, and you had Democrats in control of, um, uh, and you had Democrats in control of, um, of Congress.

It was a 1994 that it flipped on the Democrats to Newt Gingrich when he came in with his contract for America. But this Hazard Mitigation Relocation Assistance Act gave authority to local governments to implement a mandatory buyout program for flood prone areas. And as I said, they've been playing these types of condemnation games and stacking up fines for people. That was that was common. You know, when you look at politics at the local level, it's usually about real estate. And that's where people like Sandy Freeman came from. And then when you get to like the state level, uh, it starts becoming about lawyers and about big business and that type of thing. And same, same as it is when you go to Washington.

Uh, but so far, just three localities, Cedar Rapids in Iowa, Minnow and Minot, I don't know how you pronounce it, in North Dakota and Harris County in Texas, only three of them, have used this mandatory buyout program that was authorized by the federal government in 1993. The Harris County program is the largest of the three, expected to forcibly purchase 585 households and 390 businesses by 2026 and turn the land into green space. Reason writes, most local governments have been wary of taking advantage of mandatory buyout authority, and for good reason. While states have the power of eminent domain

and may use federal funds for this purpose under the law. The federal government always there incentivizing criminal acts. Like, you know, P. Didding your kid in kindergarten. So disgusted with the schools. And anyway, while states have the power of this and they get federal funds for this it's always ripe for abuse with a voluntary payout buyout governments must offer a purchase price that is high enough to entice homeowners to sell so if it's voluntary you're going to do it but if you can do it with mandatory stuff, you pick the price and they don't have any choice.

And so that's going to typically manifest itself with fraud. Harris County faced accusations of discrimination, as I said before, when their mandatory buyout program was applied in the majority Hispanic neighborhoods, while the white neighborhoods had voluntary buyouts. And I suspect that if anything, they did this based on the idea that, well, if people got more money, they're going to push us on this and challenge this. So, you know, make it voluntary there, mandatory in other places. Both the federal and state governments have long encouraged development

in storm-prone areas by offering below-market-rate flood insurance and other forms of assistance. These subsidies should stop, and the government should do more to make people aware of the risks faced by homeowners in vulnerable areas. You see, Washington Post said, well, let's extend the FEMA map so people can get the subsidized federal flood insurance. They're saying, let's stop that, but let's let people decide if they want to take the risk, they can take the risk. If they don't have flood insurance, that's up to them.

So they said, this is a question of values. Yeah, you want to protect the lives and property of American citizens, but the government and the government should not subsidize risky behavior. But the desire for safety can't become the excuse to force people out of their own homes. Well, it can be. Because you see, safety is the excuse

to do everything to take away our liberty. Always is. So, this was from listener David. Red alert, your people. Don't let FEMA inside your house. And I think he was in Florida. He said, I was close to ground zero. Storm is gone.

So I think that's about, this just came in. So I think it's about the Milton hurricane. Said, lots of damage. Right now, all the rivers are swelling. So houses on rivers within one mile are flooding. What everyone is missing. He says FEMA is condemning houses when they flood and they want inside of the homes, even though they don't need to go inside.

So he said, once they put a sticker on the house, you have to go, they will come back and they will bulldoze the house. So FEMA, you let FEMA in, they inspect it. They'll put a sticker on the house. And then the bulldozers come. And so now you've got county government passing new rules to seal houses as well.

This is real. I've seen them do this in the Keys, the Florida Keys. So red alert your people. They're getting rid of manufactured houses. See, that's another part of the agenda. They can come in and they can wipe out an area because they want to build a skyscraper. Or they can come in, as he's saying,

perhaps this is their motivation. I don't know, but we do know that BlackRock and Vanguard and all these companies want to own all the houses. They've been buying them up left and right. They don't care what the mortgage rates are. They've got all the money in the world. Well, at least a third of it between these three companies, State Street, Vanguard, and BlackRock. And if they can get this property, they can control the houses so that you don't own anything.

Remember that? You won't own the cars because Elon Musk is going to have the robo taxis around and you won't own the home because BlackRock and Vanguard and State Street will own the homes and on and on and on. And he said one of the things they're particularly looking at are manufactured houses you know double wides things like that because that has been kind of an escape valve for people who can't afford the the full thing and so they want to get that out of there this is also from handy giving us an update he's gone into North Carolina to help. Very anxious to get in there. And before I show that to you, let me give you, we're constantly told by Glenn Beck and others that FEMA is just doing a great job.

We have some Republican politicians who are saying that. Don't criticize the government. We love our bureaucracy and the Democrats, especially want to now censor people. If they are questioning anything, the government does or their motives, or if they criticize what they have done or what they've not done. No,

you're not supposed to say that now either. I mean, this is the censorship world that we live in. Well, here's one person speaking out about what he saw was fake relief he said this was a photo op they staged for lala and then also from that video i started getting a lot of messages like to my instagram from like actual like aircraft commanders like squadron commanders no kidding i had a squadron commander from north carolina um reach out to me They had to load a C-17 full of supplies just to take a photo off for Kamala,

and they never sent the bird. Wait a minute, what? They loaded an entire C-17 full of supplies for the hurricane victims just for Kamala to go there, take a photo, take a video, and they never sent the C-17. Are you serious? That was a National Guard, North Carolina National Guard. Yeah, yeah.

Well, Handy says, we're on our way back. That's a good level. Thank you. He said, we delivered a 53-foot trailer of supplies, then took loads of supplies around various residences using ATVs. There really wasn't any rescue operations where I was. We never saw FEMA, says Handy. But the mere mention of the word got tempers heated.

Now, what would that be? If, like Glenn Beck says, they're just doing a great job? As Biden says, yeah, everybody's got everything they need. They don't need any more money. They're all happy. All the slaves are clapping their hands when I fly over. Why is that? Why is everybody gets so angry about FEMA if they're doing such a smack up wonderful job here? He said, the parking lot where we dropped off supplies is being used by two different organizations to collect and sort supplies. The camp where we delivered was anti-FEMA. The other camp apparently had an agreement

to give 36% of their supplies to FEMA. Now, why would FEMA need that? FEMA has unlimited money because it's a federal bureaucracy, and don't play these games that they have to have, you know, specific authorization for this stuff. They're handing out money left and right.

They're handing out money to foreign citizens. They're handing out money to foreign citizens. They're giving funding wars all over the place, but they don't have any money for this. They conjure the money out of thin air. They don't care about deficits. Neither the Democrats nor the Republicans like Mike Johnson give a flip about the deficit. They're increasing it by a trillion dollars every 100 days.

It's probably going at a faster clip than that now. But they want to pretend they don't have any money, they don't have any supplies. So give us 36% of your supplies. What's that for? So you can pretend that you're helping people? So that you can pretend that this is coming from the government? So that you can take credit for what is actually being done

by volunteers in the community? Yeah. Yeah. And Glenn Beck will help you with that. When that info made it into our camp, he said people started getting heated. But nothing manifested out of it. There were supply drops, says Handy, on several corners. And at a few of the churches, people are handing it out to those who showed up in need.

All in all, there seemed to be more than enough people helping. It could have used a little more organization, but what it lacked in organization was made up for in sheer numbers. There was also food trucks and tables of food for free to those in need of being helped. He said, I thought this was interesting, there were guns on most hips. Yeah. You know, this is a, that, but even more importantly,

you know, the fact that when things go bad, when the government gets its wish and starts a war, there's not going to be any help from the government. If anything, they will be there to harm you. So people had guns on their hips. And I imagine it's a very polite society now. An armed society is a polite society, as I say. He said it was a very good experience, everything considered. He said they're still finding bodies. And he said, I saw them removing one just 30 to 40 yards off the main road, just beside the river. The destruction is more than I've ever seen at one time. The stories of bodies floating through yards and entire homes floating away.

It was bad. Samaritan's Purse had the largest organized groups that I saw They were out clearing out houses Which brings me to the debris The amount of debris, he said, is unreal It literally smells like a landfill in much of the area Because of how much debris is piled up everywhere And I didn't see a single truck removing the debris. Well, that's a report from Handy, who is there to help.

And this was sent by David in Orlando. American House Hippo, as you see him on here. He said, sorry I couldn't participate in the Rumble Chat on Thursday or Friday. My wife and I made it through another hurricane safely our house was built in 1935 so i've seen plenty of storms and survived and maybe uh they built it in the equivalent of the french quarter when we went to new orleans and we took a tour down the river they said that when the french settled that area the indians told him if you build here where the french quarter is if you build here it won't flood everywhere else will flood

and that's pretty much i don't know what happened with katrina but that's been pretty much um solid he said our power went out about 11 p.m on thursday but it's since been restored he said i was channeling my inner jack lawson the uh what he means by that is the civil defense manual.com two books because you're going to need books when the power's out in case you're behind on your reading if the power goes out you get a candle and you can read some of the advice that he does it's like oh we should have done that beforehand uh but again civil defense manual.com jack lawson frequent guest and he's got a great great manual i was channeling my inner jack lawson we probably have a dozen cases of bottled water we kept on the dining room table they can be used in emergencies should the need arise we have lots of one gallon

jugs of water as well we use a used a butane stove for cooking back in the late 90s i used to regularly use this stove because my home didn't have electricity it would have cost 25 000 canadian dollars to bring a line in from the nearest pole a mile away so he said i told my wife beforehand that if we lose power for days even weeks it's going to get pretty miserable in the house with no air conditioning and we have to restrain ourselves from killing each other. Fortunately, the last couple of days have been cool by Florida standards in the upper seventies. Well, that was not the situation when Fran came through, uh, and Raleigh, when we were there, um, it was bad. Uh, my mom was in a wheelchair, uh, and she was stuck on the second floor because we had an elevator but no power, so we couldn't get her down.

We had no air conditioning, and it was hot and humid and no breeze, and it went on for over a week. We were out of power. But as I looked this morning, power has been restored. It was 3.5 million people were without power in Florida after Milton. And that was down now this morning at 410,000 without power. So there's still a lot of people who don't have power. And that seems to be kind of focused in the Tampa area.

But most of the power has been restored. This is from James. He said, I've heard about the lithium mines in the mountains i've heard about black rock and vanguard being heavily invested in that and guess what guess who else is heavily invested in black rock well lala and her husband of course it's funny you know all these politicians seem to know who to invest in let's take a look at nancy pelosi famous for insider trading uh matter of fact one of the one of the best investment uh uh harbingers of the stock market that you can find is and one guy set it up following the trades of her husband

because of the insider stuff she was legendary for being an insider trader 60 minutes back in the day when they used to do reports focused on that and expose that. And then as a Speaker of the House, she responded to that. They called it the Pelosi Act, but she called it the Stock Act. And it stopped insider trading. But that only lasted for about six to nine months. And then they modified the legislation to eviscerate it and to allow it to continue on and so this kind of insider trading is always going on i wouldn't be surprised if you know

trump's a billionaire uh is he invested in blackrock and vanguard i mean they've got something like a third of all of the stocks are invested in that so i don't know if he's invested in that or not but yeah we know what that scam is and as i said before a lot of this stuff if it happens this is another example they did it legislatively the federal government instead of coming in and saying we're going to condemn your property they again they would run into challenges you bet with the 10th amendment just like if the federal government comes in and say you're going to lock down and we're going to take your business, we're going to close your church and your business and all the rest of this stuff.

That was not going to fly. And so when they practiced this, you know, dark winter two months before 9-11, the anthrax attack one week later, two months later, they put in the model state legislation so the states would give them the power to do this. Now, what's different about this is that the federal government gave the power to the states in 1993 to encourage them to do this kind of thing. But it always has to roll out at the state level, folks. The government can be presuming to have the authority to give them to condemn property, which again, the 1993 act to say, well, uh, we're going to say that local communities can condemn property now.

And fortunately in, um, 30 years, uh, you've only had three of these cases applied, but one of them is ongoing right now in Houston. Uh, but, um, it. But it's important to understand how they're always going to run this out at the local level. That's why the local things are important. But it's also a good example of this 1993 delegation of power to the states. They're giving them a power

that the federal government doesn't have to give. The federal government doesn't have any say-so about that. I mean, you're still back if you want to try to fight this thing in terms of mandatory condemnation, if that comes to your area. I would suggest somebody saying challenging the constitutionality of that 1993 act that presumed to give the power to force mandatory buyouts of property, that needs to be challenged. Congress cannot delegate a power to the states that it doesn't have. That's exactly the opposite of the 10th Amendment.

The 10th Amendment says that states and the people are delegating powers to the federal government. And if they don't delegate them, the federal government doesn't have those powers. This is turning that upside down, this 1993 act from Bill Clinton and the Democrat Congress. Well, I liked this reminder from Brian Schilhavi, healthimpact.com. The one who controls the storms. Who would that be?

He said, what we used to always hear referred to as acts of nature or acts of God, terms that are still used by insurance companies today, for things like earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes. Today, it's all being politicized and blamed on alleged evil actors who are in the opposing political party, you see. That's why they do this kind of stuff. It is this bifurcation. You're either this or that.

The Hegelian dialectic. But C.S. Lewis, I think, got it right. When he said, evil always comes at you in pairs. So that you vote or support something that is evil. Because it's not as evil, you think, as the other thing. That's what this is always about. But of course, you want to talk about the politicizing of all this stuff. It's to take away your car, your meat, your dairy, your travel, even your clothes, right?

C40, they want to tell you that you can have, I think it's three articles of clothing that you can buy a year. Who are they? Who are they? Who are they? Well, they are the people who are in charge of, again, C40 is cities. They think globally. They act locally. C40 is yet another example of this. Mayor Bloomberg in New York, Sadiq Khan in London, they put this together and said, okay, we're going to impose these kinds of restrictions and everything at the local level.

Let's create an organization, go directly to do that, C40. And it's more than 40 cities now. It's more than 100 cities. And they're some of the biggest cities in the world. So he says, I saw this back in 2005 when Hurricane Katrina had a direct hit on New Orleans. Then President Republican George Bush was blamed by the Democrats and the left for the hurricane because they said he had not taken enough action to fight climate change. Even back then, they were blaming it on climate change.

And because he was on vacation at the time, it was late to provide national health to the survivors. Biden is always on vacation at the time, it was late to provide national health to the survivors. Biden is always on vacation. Always late. For nearly five years, Bush had infuriated much of the world by refusing to take action on global warming. And so they hammered him about Hurricane Katrina. And of course, that's not Brian saying that, but that is establishment media saying that.

Fast forward today, to today, says Brian. And the current Democrat president and vice president are being blamed by Republicans in the right for Hurricane Helene. And I am sure they will also be blamed for Hurricane Milton that just ripped through Central Florida last night. So this is a few days old. But he says they're being blamed for hurricane milton that just ripped through central florida last night so this is a few days old but he says um they're being blamed for weaponizing hurricanes and preventing fema from responding quickly enough this is exactly my take on it i said do you see how stupid this is

everything is climate change for the left all the weather and now for the right every bad bit of weather unusual weather even if it's not unusual uh for the right it's now all going to be about weather weaponization and he quotes info wars here secret history of weather weapons that appear to be used on hurricane helene of course they're going to jump onto this because it's sensational. And it doesn't help. It actually hurts when you lie about things, when you exaggerate things, when you spin them, when you make the truth unbelievable. And this is what I've said from the very beginning.

There really is weather modification going on. And we need not to make that a laughingstock by overreacting to every making that making the claim that everything is based on weather modification. That's what Alex has always done in the same way that Glenn Beck always goes around as controlled opposition. So does Alex. Brian says, I, for one, I'm getting tired of reading daily news events through the glasses of political ideology. Whether you believe these hurricanes are being weaponized to destroy only Republicans or that these hurricanes are caused by man-made climate change. He says, I'm going to present a third non-political alternative. Jesus Christ, the creator of the universe controls the weather he says you know you got a couple of different stories where he calms the seas or

and in the new testament of course we've also seen he says he doesn't he's not the one causing the storms but he's calming the storms which i think is kind of interesting. If you go back and look at the book of Job, yeah, and that God gives permission to this entity to come after Job. And what you see is that immediately there are four attacks against Job and his family and his possessions. Two of them are by weather and two of them are by people. So what does that tell you? It tells you that the satanic world has control,

has been given the authority by God to weaponize the weather. And they can also weaponize people against you and against me. And then after that round, God gives him permission to strike Job with disease, but not to kill him. There's limits put on there as to what he can do. An amazing story. Many people have always looked at Job in terms of looking at the fact that the Lord gives and the Lord takes away. What is involved in that? And I think it's very much the situation when Jesus heals a blind man, as the apostles say, you know, who sinned?

Did he sin or did his parents sin? And that was kind of what his friends in the book of Job were doing. So what'd you do wrong? Come on, you know, fess it up, get rid of it. This is about you. You know, he's like, well, no, there's things that we don't see. And God allowed that. And he said, you know, God gave and God takes away.

He didn't say, well, you know, God would like to stop this, but, you know, Satan's just too strong for him. That's not the case. And so we need to keep that in mind, and we need to understand what is the purpose? Well, you know, in both the book of Job, as well as when Jesus heals the blind man, Jesus said to them, he didn't sin, and his parents didn't sin. This happened so that God might be glorified, and the mercy of healing him,

which is what he did, his blindness. That guy spent his life blind for that particular moment that God knew about. And that was God's purpose to show his power and to show his compassion. Because we have such, we say, well, it lasted for decades. We have such a short time frame. I mean, our lifespans are like fruit flies compared to, you know, that we've compared to ourselves.

God is doing things for eternity. And God does things in our lives that are difficult for us to teach us a lesson and to help us to grow. And most importantly, when we talk about glorifying God, is to understand him and his nature. And that's the most important thing. So he says, so Jesus controls the weather. Two stories where he didn't cause the storm, but he had control over them. And you can shut it down he said the modern day belief in the advancement of humanity especially today with electronic technology and we'll talk about that with elon musk in his demonstration we'll put a couple of holes in the myth of the technocracy here in a moment um he says this is not supported by

ancient history ancient cultures that we see in the bible show a very highly advanced civilization you know they're constantly finding archaeologically things wow you know this this is amazing i mean this could not have been made by human beings thousands of years ago this had to be space aliens well no maybe um what it is is maybe their civilization was advanced in ways that you don't understand so thousands of years ago especially prior to noah's flood humans lived almost a thousand years they accumulated a lot of knowledge and technology in that amount of time just imagine if um nikola tesla or einstein had lived for a thousand years very little is written about this period of history in the bible and most modern day scientists admit they don't know how certain artifacts found through archaeology were achieved

um the most obvious example is the great pyramids and things like that but there's been other things too like these you know um instruments that uh had navigational uh things that are you know very ancient uh they're usually attributed to space aliens and no proof just blind faith that's right know, when you look at that, think about that. Think about Crick and Watson who discovered DNA. Now, you would think, here's a couple of scientists. They're from the show-me state, okay? They're from Missouri. They want to know.

Except when they saw that, they immediately knew the DNA was intelligent design behind DNA. There's no other example a way that you could explain it it's a very very complicated code but what they did was without any proof they just made up the idea well i'm sure that it came from space aliens and they called it panspermia they cannot acknowledge god but they will acknowledge aliens. I know when I was at InfoWars, Greg Reese did a thing about UFOs and stuff. And he comes in, well, the Hebrews had an encounter with space aliens, and they called these aliens Jehovah.

And all Jehovah is is space aliens, he said. It's like, wow, I had so many people writing me about that. But, yeah, we will come up, and we've been prepared now, aliens he said it's like wow i had so many people writing me about that uh but um yeah it's uh we will come up and we've been prepared now by hollywood to believe in aliens and they're constantly pushing you to not believe in god so they will attribute it to that. I don't think Crick and Watson had even been prepped by Hollywood to believe in space aliens. Maybe so. But that's what they are pushing. The alternative, the minority view, is that while man is responsible for this climate change, it's not because of carbon emissions or for anything else.

And it's not really even by geoengineering. But there is geoengineering going on. Now, man is responsible because of the rebellion against God, the curse. But there is geoengineering going on. And Brian Schilhavi has the same take on this that I did last week. He said, while I appreciate the fine work that Dane Wigington has done to bring to light the efforts of the globalists to control and weaponize the weather, I agree.

He said, that research in and of itself is not proof that every single hurricane or destructive weather system is caused solely by Jew engineering. He said, here's a third alternative that's never discussed you know according to evidence found in the bible before the flood of noah and it never rained on the earth a canopy above the earth provided what might have been a near perfect biosphere probably tropical after the flood and waters that came up from the deep and also the canopy above the earth, the polar caps of the earth very quickly froze.

Darwinian evolutionary theory would have us to believe that the Ice Age happened over millions of years. But the evidence found in archaeology better fits into the biblical worldwide flood narrative, especially when whole animals are found encased in ice. You know, what do we see when we look at the flood record and fossils? We see millions of dead things buried all over the world found in layers. Now, the question is, were those layers laid down gradually over time

or suddenly all at once? And we can see it in a microcosm. If we look at Mount St. Helens, we see all these types of layers, but that happened very suddenly, catastrophically, not over a slow, steady state process. And so it depends on where your starting assumption is. If you're going to assume that it happened over very suddenly or if it happened over a long period of time. But that's your starting point assumption. We assume that it happened very quickly because of the Bible. And actually the physical evidence supports that as well. It's not just the things found encased in ice.

But it's what they call polystratic events if you have a tree for example that is found essentially vertical through all these different layers did that get thrown down there very rapidly or did you have a tree that just decomposed over millions of years while it's standing up and everything is slowly forming around it uh i don't think i think these polystrata events argue for the fact that it is done very quickly. And when you look at the dating of all this stuff, it's all circular logic. Well, you know, what do you know? How do you know, given a level of the rock strata, how do you know the age of that?

Well, we know that because we see animals from the jurassic period in there and you know that happened x number of years ago well how do you know that well we know that it happened x number of years ago because you find animals from the jurassic period there right circular logic we we know how old that is because of the animals and and because of the animals we you know because of the age of the thing that's how we know the age of the animals we set these different ages it's all uh self-referential it's all circular he said um glaciers perfectly intact including having undigested food in their stomach such as extinct woolly mammoths, could argue for something happening very quickly.

He said something like that could never happen over long periods of time and certainly suggest a catastrophic weather event where it happened almost immediately. He said while there are many theories about who caused these increasingly destructive storms, only one person in history has ever calmed one, Jesus Christ. And this is the moral of the story folks i will not look to politicians to save us from these storms and the other storms of life because they cannot that's right whether you're talking about political storms or these physical storms they they can't save you. Marky Mark, New Jersey.

Good to see you there. He says, let people build their homes wherever they like. However, don't pay for them to rebuild. Let them pay for the rebuilding out of their own pockets. That's right. If they can get somebody to give them insurance, fine. We don't have the federal government subsidize it. And then, because see, when the federal government subsidize,

it's just like the argument for health care. we want everybody to have health care so we're going to take it over and you won't have to pay anything out of your pocket we'll protect you with this but at the same time we will tell you what health care you can have and what health care you cannot have we will also tell you what health care you must have and what health care you must not have, you see. It all comes back to control. They always take control in the name of safety. Grammy for God. Good to see you there.

I had a question we were wondering about. I was so happy to see that very few people, I think the body count, which was 16, and that is a tragedy, but we've had automobile accidents where more than that have died. And so very glad to see that it diminished. But let's see. Hi, everyone.

Praise God we made it through Milton. Got my power back yesterday. My daughter's power's still out. Gas is very hard to find still. I'd understand why there isn't any gas when the pumps are working. Another way to stop our movement, I guess um yeah it'd be interesting to see i mean that was one of the things that um i don't know before the storm we're talking about the fact that so much of florida's fuel infrastructure comes through the port of tampa i don't know what the situation is there now uh desantis was

running convoys of tankers with a state patrol escort but the numbers that they were bringing in were not very big numbers uh zero defects says the scary aspect is that the technology has been perfected for weather manipulation the masses will reflexively follow the mantra of government's climate change money grab i i believe that i believe that uh you know that they that that is something that is real and i believe that they are also using that to say well here's an anomaly must be climate change when it's actually geoengineering. But I think we do a disservice if we make everything about that. You don't want to abuse that because then what you do is you discredit. And folks, that is a favorite tactic of the CIA. If some information gets out, what do they do?

They embellish it. They add false details to the truth that somehow escaped so that you don't believe the CIA. If some information gets out, what do they do? They embellish it. They add false details to the truth that somehow escaped, so that you don't believe the truth. They make the truth unbelievable, which is what Alex does. Conservative Thinker, thank you for the tips. People who support Trump have never looked at or just simply ignore his executive orders and all of the uniparty bills that he signed into law. Trump is the uniparty. Absolutely. We're going to talk about that coming up.

When we come back, we're going to talk about bipartisan martial law, bipartisan censorship, and how bipartisan, they're both making statements that, you know, we need to be able to use the military to keep control of the population. That's what always happens with a standing army, and we're at that point right now where they are trying to give themselves the pretended authority to use the military for law enforcement, to keep law and order and that type of thing. It's martial law. What happened in 2020 was martial law. You know, what happened in 2020 was martial law.

We just saw it, for the most part, people voluntarily complied with it because they were paid. But if push comes to shove, both La La and Trump will use the military against us. Stealth Patriot, thank you for the tip. He says, David, do you think FEMA will hire Bill Gates' public relations representatives? Well, that would help them, wouldn't it or maybe they're just uh censorious uh who knows what they're going to do we're going to take a quick break and we'll be right back Thank you. Thank you. you're listening to the david knight show welcome back well um the u.s military is now authorized to kill americans on u.s soil this is an article on zeroedge is originally from Armageddon Pros. The U.S. military has granted itself permission. Now, just think about that.

What does that mean? Granted itself permission. They don't have the authority to do this, obviously, to unleash lethal force on the civilian population in cases of national security emergency as the u.s this is coming from green med info as the u.s prepares for one of the most controversial closely watched elections in its history a concerning update by the department of defense directive has quietly been put into effect this directive directive was reissued on September the 27th this year, 2024. This directive governs the Department of Defense's intelligence activities and now includes provisions authorizing lethal force in certain circumstances who are assisting civilian law enforcement. They are, by the way, prohibited from being involved in any civilian law enforcement

while the directive forbids assassination it opens the door to lethal interventions under national security conditions now let me just say this before we get into the meat of what is happening here uh i get stuff sent to me all the time about people they look you know trump wanted to have the military there on january the 6th and other people shut it down it's like well you know um trump is when you look at this to me that is a bit like martial law and i think he really doesn't understand the restrictions of posse comitatus either and none of the politicians care or want to stop a permanent standing army which is what we have now and a permanent standing army will always be used by

politicians to suppress civilians this is now the order to do it in the 2016 version of this directive which has now just been reissued as of September the 27th. The directive primarily focused on intelligence collection and ensuring civil liberties protection for U.S. persons. We're here. We're from the government. We're here to help you. It emphasized strict oversight and the need for authorization. It's so cynical that they would do this and say, well, this is to ensure your civil liberties. No, it's exactly the opposite of that.

However, the 2024 version expands the military's role, particularly in assisting civil law enforcement, and it authorizes lethal force under specific conditions, raising questions about its use during the potential civil unrest surrounding this election. Why would we think there's going to be civil unrest around this election? Well, because you've got two completely different worlds of information being told to the weaponized groups that are out there, each of them.

Now, as we get closer and closer to the election, we're seeing more and more people coming out, especially in the Christian community. You got to vote against Lala Harris or you're not a moral person even right i mean they're putting this kind of stuff on people like i haven't seen since 2020 when they were telling everybody you shut your church down or it's not loving you know that kind of stuff that's what we're seeing and it's the same christian leaders for the most part they're telling you that you got to vote for well you know trump because you can't vote for lala and that's as far as they're concerned there's only two of them they won't say that they won't say uh you're not a christian if you don't vote for trump because that's kind of

laughable isn't it that's pretty hard for them just to say well she is so evil that you got to vote for trump right c.s lewis devil always sends errors in the world and pairs uh encourages us spend a lot of time wondering which one is worse you see why of course you see why of course well um so it requires the secretary of defense's approval well that's not a problem look at uh secretary of defense approved mandatory vaccines for the people under him right and of course so had trump trump had laid the foundation for that as soon as we get this magical um hand waving from the fda well we're going to mandate it for people in military and i said in december of 2020 i said that'll happen in september of 2021 because they're waiting for school to start assistance and responding with

assets with potential for lethality. They can say, well, you know, so we can assist in situations that has a potential that we're going to kill civilians or in any situation in which it's reasonably foreseeable, but providing the requested assistance may involve the use of force likely to result in lethal force, including death. Now, is that lethal force in that death?

Do they have a different kind of lethal force? Or serious bodily injury. It also includes all support to civilian law enforcement officials in situations where a confrontation between civilian law enforcement and civilian individuals or groups is reasonably anticipated. You understand they want to use the military under martial law. The U.S. military, for its record, is expressly prohibited. For the record, not for its record. But the U.S. military, for the record, is expressly prohibited from engaging domestically with a citizenry with very specific narrow exceptions by the posse comitatus

act that says whoever except in cases and under circumstances expressly authorized by congress and uh the con by the constitution or by an act of Congress. You see, this is coming from the Department of Defense. It's not in the Constitution, and it's not even coming as an act of Congress. This is essentially declaring war. Whether it is civil war, whether it is martial law, that ought to come from the Congress. It shouldn't be an executive order from the president. It shouldn't be a policy statement from the Department of Defense,

which is even perhaps more troubling. Just like the bureaucracy is so out of control, and it has been encouraged to be this way by both Congress and the executive branch. They have encouraged them to take the initiative to do whatever they wish because the president and the Congress doesn't want to take the blame for this stuff. So they tell them, well, you know, you have the power to do this and we're going to pretend that the ATF can ban guns

and that the Department of Defense can do law enforcement, so-called against civilians and kill them. It's interesting, too, to note how this has been the banter going back for a couple of election cycles now. You had people like Eric Swalwell, Beto O'Rourke, and Biden all talking about how, well, you think you got guns? Well, you know, we got F-16s and we got nuclear weapons and all the rest of this kind of stuff. And it's like, well, how have those think you got you got guns well you know we got f-16s and we got nuclear weapons and all the rest of this kind of stuff it's like well how have those worked out for you

every single war that you've been involved in since world war ii but they threaten us threaten us all the time um so whoever accepting cases are under circumstances expressly authorized by the constitutional or by an act of Congress willfully uses any part of the army, the Navy, the Marine Corps, the air force, or the space force as a posse comitatus or otherwise to execute the law of the land shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than two years or both well again isn't the biden administration awful yes but wait uh on sunday trump says uh he could support using u.s military against americans for this election so these two stories come out exactly now this story you won't find on zero hedge or on info wars on breitbart or any other conservative media they will have the story

about how look the biden administration the department of defense is putting this stuff in but they won't give you the story that says that Trump is great with that as well. Not just Biden. Trump likes it as well. The idea as well. Trump issued a sinister election related threat to radical leftists on Sunday saying that he could support U.S. military force against Americans. He described as, quote, the enemy from within, unquote, if they disrupt the vote next month. You see how Biden and Lala and Trump are all part of the uniparty and the uniparty wants to censor us. They want to use the military against us. They want to extend martial law,

bring it back for whatever pretense and excuse they can think of. And this is where, and I've been saying this the longest time. I don't really look. If you think that voting in this election for president is going to make a difference, go ahead and indulge your fantasies. I don't want to, but yeah, I'm not going to tell you who to vote for. And I'm not even going to tell you don't vote. You can do whatever you want to, but don't make this.

Well, this is the most important election that we've ever had. And if we don't win this election, everything is lost. Like Elon Musk is now selling. I've ever had. And if we don't win this election, everything is lost like Elon Musk is now selling. I've heard that. And that is an absolute lie. I've heard it over and over again. One election after the other. And folks, look, things are getting worse.

Absolutely are. Because we're not doing anything to stop them at the local level. And they don't want you to do anything at the local level. Let me tell you this. If you don't do anything at the local level, yes, we are going to stop having elections. We've already pretty much ended the whole idea of ballot access and debates through this cycle. Nobody even cares. You got Lala as appointed.

Trump was anointed. Especially because the left comes after him with this phony professional wrestling stuff. Made up charges. And we all knew we're never going to stick. And now, you know, Letitia James is getting, you know, slapped in the face by judges on appeals. Like, what are you thinking of? Why would you bring this? Oh, you got your little conviction and you made Trump a martyr. There's no way that that stuff is going to hold up.

And we all knew that. But it was a massive fundraising thing. And that's all anybody ever wanted to talk about nobody wanted when desantis held a press conference and he wanted to talk about cbdc and define it for people no we're not going to talk about an issue it was only about well what are you going to do about trump and this these charges out of manhattan and uh and and it was damned if he does and damned if he doesn't no matter what he said it's going to be construed as it wasn't Trumpy enough by the Republicans.

And it was going to be too Trumpy by the mainstream media. And that's exactly what happened. But the Democrats and the people who are the uniparty people who control, they used all that stuff to make sure that Trump didn't have to debate. We didn't have any primaries. Biden and the Democrats shut down the primaries on the Democrat side, and then they shoved Biden out and anointed Lala. This is such a rigged election. You want to talk to me about this? All the people who for four years were saying, look at how they rigged the election.

And now all of a sudden, as we're getting close to it, now you're supposed to believe 100% that your vote counts. Your vote counts. If you don't vote, you are condemning your children to a lifetime of slavery. That's what we're being told now by Christian leaders. And by all the conservatives as well. Utter and complete nonsense, but as you get close to the election, and I knew this was going to happen, everybody buys into one side or the other.

They buy into evil A or evil B. And then after they buy into it, we're at the stage now where those are fighting words. I want to fight with you if you don't support Trump. And they do. They want to fight with us over this stuff. So Trump says that he can support using military against americans what kind of american are you like that film civil war uh so he says i think the bigger problem is the enemy from within not even the people that have come in and destroyed the country you understand he's saying that americans who don't vote for him are bigger problem than the illegal

aliens who are coming it's the enemy within and i kind of agree with that i think that trump is more dangerous than the than the democrats who fly their flag wear their costume and tell you what they're going to do he's the enemy within he's the backstabber who's got to get behind you so he can stab you in the back. But, of course, there's no mention of the Constitutional Congress from Trump. Does he even know that there is a Constitution? We have some very bad people, said Trump. We have some very sick people, radical left lunatics. And I think they're the, and it should be very easily handled by if necessary

by national guard or if really necessary by the military because they can't let that happen trump claimed in his remarks that his fellow americans are more dangerous than china russia and all these countries quote unquote more dangerous quote than china russia all these countries uh la la swiftly pushed back on the Republicans' extraordinary remarks. See how the press is so polarized as well? So one-sided. They don't want you to see what the other candidate is doing, which is exactly the same thing as their guy. I know people have grown numb to Trump over the past decade.

But this should be shocking, she said, her spokesperson. Trump is suggesting that his fellow Americans are worse enemies than foreign adversaries, and he's saying he would use the military against them. Well, it was Lala who said this. I learned, I think I was, I don't know, 22 when I started that work, I learned that with the swipe of my pen, I could charge someone with the lowest level of offense. And because of the swipe of my pen, that person could be arrested,

they could sit in jail for at least 48 hours. They could lose time from work and their family, maybe lose their job. They'd have to come out of their own pocket to help hire a lawyer. They'd lose standing in their community. All because of the swipe of my pen. Weeks later, I could dismiss the charges, but their life would forever be changed. So I learned at a very young age,

the power. Yeah, she learned to love power and the swipe of her pen. And she will swipe everything from you. Your freedom, your reputation your reputation your money your job everything just like trump did with fauci totally illegal trump escalates the rhetoric on outlawing political dissent and criticism this is out of the autocratic playbook as autocrats consolidate their power once they're in office anything that threatens their power becomes illegal, said a historian. It's reported by NBC News.

Now, NBC News is going to report the totally illegal authoritarian censorship comments and threats that are being put out there by Trump, but they won't report that about her, and they won't report what she said about hate speech. We'll put the Department of Justice of the United States back in the business of justice. We will double the civil rights division and direct law enforcement to counter this extremism. We will hold social media platforms accountable for the hate infiltrating their platforms because they have a responsibility to help fight against this threat to our democracy. And if you profit off of hate, if you act as a megaphone for misinformation or cyber warfare, if you don't police your platforms we are going to hold you accountable as a community

yeah and of course what she did was to um she said and more specifically uh elon musk and twitter have um violated their privileges and they don't have their privileges removed now when trump talks about he says oh they need to have their licenses removed. Now, when Trump talks about it, he says, oh, they need to have their licenses removed. It's the same thing. He talks about removing the broadcaster's license of ABC, CBS, NBC, all these other media companies. She talks about, and she and Hillary, talk about coming after Twitter on social media because the criticism of them is allowed there.

And so on Sunday, Trump talks about using the military against Americans that he doesn't like. And in a speech on Friday in Aurora, Colorado, Trump blasted the immigration system and lobbed a grenade at Lala saying she's a criminal, a criminal. And as NBC says, he has developed a tendency to blame, to claim that speech he disapproves of is illegal, even if it's protected by the First Amendment. He's just like Lala, in other words. But he has said over and over again, CBS, ABC, others, you've got to lose your license. A questionable cut of a 60 Minutes Harris interview.

Totally illegal, he said on X. CBS should have its broadcast license revoked. The Harris campaign editing headlines and paid Google ads. He said that's totally illegal. He vowed that Google will pay a big price for this. He said Democrats are trying to illegally hide part of his statement calling on rioters to be peaceful on January 6th. They will

pay a price for that as well. In August, Trump told a crowd in Wilkes Bar, Pennsylvania that criticisms of judges who have ruled in alignment with him should be banned. I believe it's illegal what they do. I believe they are playing the ref and they're

constantly criticizing our great some of our greatest justices and a lot of great judges playing the ref with our judges and our justices should be punishable by very serious fines and beyond that says trump whether we're talking about Hillary or La La or Trump, these people are unhinged totalitarians. They are unhinged and detached from the Constitution. They don't value individual liberty, the rule of law, or the Constitution that they swore to uphold. And they're all the same. You can see this hateful rhetoric from all of them, Biden included.

But then what NBC does is they go to a historian who teaches at New York University, wrote a book, Strongman, From Mussolini to the Present. She said, this is out of the autocratic playbook. Well, of course it is but see their playbook doesn't talk about the other team depending on the media but both teams quote unquote in this uniparty league are doing this this is how the autocratic playbook as autocrats consolidate their power once they're in office anything that threatens their power or exposes their corruption or releases information that is harmful to them in any way becomes illegal. And we've seen this with a climate MacGuffin.

Shut up your climate deniers. You need to be put in jail, said RFK Jr. Or shut up. You're telling people about ivermectin. You need to have your medical license removed as a doctor or as a pharmacist or whatever and again you know there's never been any problem using an approved drug with a 60-year history to use it for something that if you know that it's safety profile you've always been allowed to use it for off-label use it doesn't have to be specifically approved for this new condition um viagra was an example of

that right blood pressure medication that found other uses for uh so um yeah just as there's a divide now because of this brainwashing about who is a patriot and who is a criminal telling the truth in any area journalists scientists even people, even people like me, she said, anybody who is engaged in objective inquiry, prosecutors, of course, they become criminal and they need to be shut down. And NBC says some Harris voters say that Trump is channeling dictators. The more he lies, the more it's accepted by his faithful followers. Isn't that the case for the Lala people as well?

This is absolute insanity. The fact that these people will follow the Pied Pipers on either the left or the right, and they won't see that their person, their evil person, is exactly as evil as the other person in the same way. We're going to shut down free speech. We're going to shut down the free press. We're going to have martial law. We're going to suspend posse comitatus. We're going to use a standing army military to use lethal force against citizens and on

and they both support all of that. You better get focused on the local election. They want, it's just amazing to me how they shut people down and misdirect people. all of that. You better get focused on the local election. It's just amazing to me how they shut people down and misdirect people. NBC goes on. Trump rallied a raucous crowd Wednesday in Scranton, Pennsylvania, launching personal attacks on Harris and drawing jeers and boos from a sea of MAGA-hatted supporters as he spoke of the enemy from within.

He mentioned as one example, Adam Schiff of California, which sparked a lock him up shout from one of the supporters. Well, you don't have to worry about that. I mean, we had Trump himself saying, I'm going to lock up Hillary Clinton. Did he do it? Of course not. He doesn't do anything, he says. Nothing, good or bad, that he says. Some of the Trump's own voters told NBC News they disapprove of the revenge-based themes. A Scranton native said he's supporting Trump because of his views on immigration and the economy,

but the self-described Catholic said he's, quote, absolutely not, unquote, on board with this rhetoric about exacting revenge and getting even. He said the way to get even with anybody is to change the economy. Getting even should not be in the playbook. Is revenge a good thing? It's not a good thing, he says. No, it's not. But that's what he's about.

As his lawyer, Ty Cobb, said, a deeply wounded narcissist, incapable of acting except in his own perceived self-interest or out of revenge. And in that regard, he's no different from Lala or Biden. A Pennsylvanian who attended the Trump rally, donning a MAGA cap, said she's excited to vote for Trump a third time, but even she was put off by his talk of retribution. She said, I don't agree with it.

I think people like Drain like drain the swamp but in her view that doesn't mean personally going after his critics i don't think he should sink to their level well facebook is sunk to that level and it is kind of interesting uh facebook is getting a lot of heat because they have now blocked information about the arrest of a U.S. journalist in Israel. Do you think Facebook supports freedom of the press or any of the rest of the stuff? And, of course, what Israel is saying is that this is somebody who reported, gave Intel detailed information about where bombs had landed. Of course, Israel had been telling everybody none of the bombs landed anywhere. You could see the pictures of it.

You could see that the Iron Dome was not keeping stuff out. But we had to pretend that that really didn't happen. Don't believe your own eyes. You've got to believe the Israeli government. And so when he went around to see what was actually happening, he and several other journalists, they were all arrested. He was kept for several days however because he works for a organization that's been very critical of what's going on in israel the gray zone

but then we bring facebook into the mix of all of this and so when this is yet another thing where both of them are alive both trump and la la uh support the authoritarian regime of netanyahu and i say it's an authoritarian regime because you look at what he did during the lockdown the pandemic you know he he took the lead in terms of vaccine passports and shooting up everybody and killing his own citizens he's taking the lead in a cashless society. Israel is further along and banning all cash than pretty much any other country. He's pushing, of course, unending wars and censorship. And so Facebook is going to work with them, going to work with this guy, right?

So Facebook works for the israeli government all of these media companies including twitter work for foreign governments and our own government to censor our speech so israel claimed that he was arrested because of war and because of national security but then what is facebook's claim well they just do what any government tells them to do but uh here's uh someone else from the gray zone uh taking on the state department so israel is still poised to strike iran and in july blinken said that iran was one to two weeks away from developing a nuclear weapon. So I guess for all we know, they might have one by now. And meanwhile, in Ukraine, they've struck deep within Russian territory several times, as deep as 300 miles from the

border. And in that case, we don't have to guess. We know that Russia has the largest nuclear arsenal on the planet, as many as 6,000 warheads. And so one of the risks of arming militaries that are striking in the territories of nuclear powers is that one of those gets deployed, and then it could escalate very quickly from there. So it's rarely discussed, but it's important to address that the nuclear risk is real, and it could very abruptly mean the end of what humans have worked for thousands of years to collectively achieve. And us today are very lucky to live in with the fruits of that achievement.

And I feel like we're treating the risks kind of brazenly. So my question for you is, you know, we often hear in response to these concerns that, well, Putin, Khomeini, you know, they're war criminals, they're terrorists, as if they're too inherently evil or immoral for us to negotiate with. But meanwhile, this administration has financed a genocide in Gaza for the last year. And every day you're up there denying accountability for it. So, I mean, what gives you the right to lecture other countries on their moral? So if you have a policy question for me, I'm happy to take it. If you want to give a speech, there are plenty of places in Washington where you can give a speech.

Yeah, but people are sick of the bullshit in here. I mean, it is a genocide. You are abetting it. And you are risking nuclear war. And you frequently display those phrases. Go ahead. Yeah, well, that's probably the last time he gets to make a statement or ask a question there.

Again, he was with the gray zone. That's why I said these people are hard on these lies about this war. And that's one of the reasons why they kept this guy for several days. He's now been released, but he's not allowed to leave the country. And any report about what is going on there is being shut down by Facebook. One person, James Biedenkopf, said,

Facebook has twice removed your Substack article when I posted it to my page. Lofrito, the guy for Gray zone that's been arrested has since been released pending investigation not allowed to leave the country uh the article this person wrote about the person who has been arrested the journalist highlighted the circumstances surrounding his arrest and his findings that reportedly contradicted official israeli statements about the missile missile attacks. According to the Times of Israel, as noted by Orfela, the person who wrote the Substack article that keeps getting removed by Facebook, quote, the exact locations of such impacts and damage are barred from publication by the IDF censor.

So Facebook's censorship of Orfela's piece raises significant concern about the freedom of the press and the role of social media platforms. Well, they're not about free speech. You see, on social media, that's really about your free speech. They're going to shut that down. They're going to shut down the free press as well. in a situation of war but what it shows you again is that facebook is the handmade of all these governments these authoritarian totalitarian governments these endless war governments um is uh is um if facebook is controlled by governments well of course israel is going to be controlling them for sure the arrest of a u.s citizen for reporting on topics that authorities have banned raises various free speech concerns because again this is

an individual who is filing a report on a u.s journalist who's been arrested can't have that either the situation pivoted when a journalist from winnet testified that the military censor had approved his own article that embedded Lofredo's video report. Ah, now it gets more interesting. You see, they say, well, okay, your report released critical military information. Okay, well, then another journalist comes up and says, yes, but you okayed my report that embedded his report that you're now saying he has to be locked up for. Authoritarians, totalitarians do not have to be consistent. They don't have to tell the truth. It's a raw exercise of power so they're saying they're locking this guy up because he exposed military information no they're locking him up

for the same reason that stooge there at the white house would want to lock him up and it won't be that long before he does you're opposed to me you're going to go to jail the gray zone is opposed to israel's war that's why he's locked up. It's not because he put information out there. Because they approved that same information in somebody else's report. That guy embedded his exact video in the report. So the journalist knew that there was a ban on the reporting. And stated that he pursued the story despite Israeli military censors official ban on publishing locations but still um here's an idea maybe we could do a prisoner exchange

maybe we could get this reporter back from israel and we could give him jonathan pollard in exchange oh wait a minute trump already did that he put him him on a plane with Miriam Edelson and sent him back to Israel. So I guess that's off, right? Can't send an Israeli spy back in exchange for an American journalist who he already gave him up. Doug Imhoff, says Babylon Bee, brags that he could smack a woman in the middle of Fifth Avenue and not lose Kamala any votes oh yeah seems like somebody else said something like that right yeah my people my people are so wonderful right the people my people are so smart and you know what else they say about my people the polls they say I have the most loyal people did you ever

see that where I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody, and I wouldn't lose any voters, okay? It's like incredible. Yeah, so, you know, I guess Doug Hamhoff, who, this woman, so hard that she said she spun around, slapped her in the face. That doesn't cause any concern with Lala's voters. The fact that he broke up his first marriage because he committed adultery with the nanny and then forced her to have an abortion, that doesn't bother them either.

You know, he atoned for that. He atoned for the infidelity by forcing her to have an abortion. Because abortion's great, you know, with those voters. But the Babylon Bee is kind of owning themselves, aren't they? Because, you see, Trump did shoot people. Not just in the middle of Fifth Avenue. He shot people all over the world with his warp speed injection. And he killed millions of people.

And he continued to brag about it until just a little bit earlier this year is that got to that even after he was running uh he was continuing to do that they finally got him to shut up everybody begging him remember that wayne allen root alex jones always please shut up you're making us look like idiots because we're trying to defend you and criticize the shot. You're turning us into hypocrites. Please stop it. Finally, he got the message. But as you saw just about a week or so ago, if somebody pushes him on it, he'll go right back to that.

Oh, so many millions of people. I saved everybody's lives with those warp speed shots. So again, Babylon B owning themselves by supporting trump and they don't even seem to be cognizant of it or maybe there is somebody at the babylon b who is cognizant of it probably get fired like i did uh so authoritarians right democrat congresswoman tell social media platforms to quickly and decisively censor hurricane misinformation. Whether you're talking about so-called climate change, oh, you're a denier. Or you're talking about the so-called pandemic and the vaccines and this and that.

It's always, they've always got a narrative. So don't talk about the war that we're pushing out here. Don't talk about the hurricane. Don't talk about the pandemic. Don't talk about the climate. Don't talk about the hurricane don't talk about the pandemic don't talk about the climate don't talk about vaccines in general don't you dare say anything about the pharmaceutical companies killing people for cash so democrat congress women four of them put together a letter to social media platforms saying um that these um that people you got to shut down people who are undermining public confidence in institutions institutions that are harming us like fema uh let's hope that

people's uh esteem of these institutions is is destroyed the call for a crackdown on misinformation addressed to seven major social media entities meta x tiktok discord youtube snap instagram authored by democrat congresswomen deborah ross north carolina kathy caster florida Deborah Ross, North Carolina, Kathy Castor, Florida, Nikima Williams, Georgia, and Wiley Nickel, North Carolina. They said those who've been spreading these lies to try to undermine the opposition are going to pay a price for it. Oh, wait a minute. Isn't that pretty much what Trump said? Well, that was actually Biden.

Got to pay a price for it biden is using exactly the same here's the deal folks okay so anyway you know i'm surprised that he can i'm surprised he can remember what trump is saying well enough to plagiarize him okay so uh they don't tell us where the truth is right oh this is information shut up shut up that's misinformation shut up that's what vimeo did to me oh don't you talk about pharmaceutical companies killing people for cash uh you violate our terms of conduct you don't talk about pharmaceutical companies they're our bread and butter you know and so again uh they. And so, again, they don't want to debate us. They don't want to tell us what the truth is.

They don't want to dispute this. They don't want to give us the truth. They just tell us, shut up. Shut up. You're gone. During the so-called pandemic, the call for online censorship by politicians and health authorities under the guise of combating misinformation

became a contentious issue, says Reclaim the Net. Of course, we all know that. Facebook, Twitter, YouTube introduced policies to flag, remove, demote content that contradicted the evolving understanding of health authorities, such as the World Health Organization and the CDC. It wasn't evolving. They knew what they were doing. They knew it from the beginning.

They lied to us. I mean, just Fauci, for example, on the masks. Okay. He knew the mask weren't going to do anything. And he said that at the beginning and then he flipped. And then he started. And then that became the scientific truth that you must not speak against. So pharma controls not only mainstream media and fda but they also control

social media if you point out that they poison and kill people and they do poison and kill people you will be removed from nearly every platform shadow banned on the remaining conservative quote-unquote platforms like x and that I can tell you from experience. So this is all supposedly says reclaim the net to protect public health, but it is the suppression of legitimate discourse, removal of content that later proved to be accurate. And of course, is it in a surprise that our politicians who have presided over this regime of censorship and deep platformforming and all the rest of the stuff,

isn't it amazing that they themselves don't want to have a debate? It's just, vote for me. I'm not the other guy. We're going to take a break, and when we come back, we're going to talk about secession. Because I don't want to just leave this out there as a problem. The problem is that people have become entranced in this left or right, Democrat or Republican and all the rest of this stuff. Don't get caught up in that. Understand where these people come from.

Yes, they will come after you in slightly different ways. But focus on your solutions, not on this distraction. Comments. M. Sellers says, when I told my MAGA aunt that I didn't like Trump, she couldn't believe I was voting for Kamala. No, I'm not voting for her. She literally was speechless and was clamoring for what to say. LOL.

I said, he's not a Christian. And she said, yes, he is. And I said, really? And then she downgraded and said, well, he's saved. He doesn't even think he needs to be saved. Have you seen that? He says, where's the fruit? He doesn't think he needs forgiveness.

You don't get saved if you don't even think you need a savior. As Jesus said, the people who are healthy, like the Pharisees and Trump, don't need a physician. They don't want somebody. I've got no need of a savior. I saved myself. And of course, we heard that from Michael Bloomberg as well. He said, if there is a God in heaven, I'm going straight in with all the money that I've given to gun control and all the rest of this stuff.

People are so delusional. You should pray for them. I mean, when I look at Trump and it was put, and I've played that in the past several times. First one was Frank Luntz, and then it was Jake Tapper. And they put him on the spot, and they didn't let him off of this first rambling misdirection. They kept pursuing it. And he was, you know, kind of, you know, he was very uncomfortable with it. And he should be uncomfortable with it, and he should be uncomfortable with it. He's going to have those same questions asked to him when he meets God.

And when I saw that, I felt sorry for him for the first time in my life. I'm serious. I really felt sorry for him. And I said that when I've played them in the past. It really is pathetic. I don't wish that on my worst enemy, Donald Trump. Audi, MRR, Modern Retro Radio. It says, remember, Team R and Team D are our collaborators.

Trump's rhetoric may be to make Harris appear to be the adult in the room. I'm not even positive Trump is trying to win. It is interesting interesting isn't it you know when you when you look at this uh who knows what is going on with this stuff i don't know maybe he's just there as an agent of chaos dougalug thank you very much for the tip he says thank you david and karen don't forget to hit the like and subscribe buttons folks please do yes thank you for the reminder dougalug. Please hit those like and subscribe buttons. That doesn't cost anything.

We really do appreciate that. This is a key way that you can support this broadcast. And so, you know, it's hard to get visibility with it. And, you know, we have to not get upset about that. And I really wasn't upset about that last week when we got kicked off of Vimeo. What upset me was why I was kicked off. I'm used to having my wings and my reach clipped. That's been going on since 2018.

I'm over it. Okay. I expect that to happen. But what bothered me was, you know, misinformation about pharma companies, misinformation about pharma companies, three strikes, You're out. That was what set me off After what I've watched them do for the last four years to people After what I'd seen them do before that and what they just did to my son. That was what set me off So mm-hmm

Tornado, thank you for the tip. The guy who did the video about the aid loaded on the C-17 not being delivered posted a retraction video yesterday. Just figured I'd pass on the information. Well, that's interesting. Well, thank you for that correction. And again, the question is, he was not, you know know that was hearsay evidence so what he could say is that the north carolina national guard that told him that recanted the story and it still begs the question as to which one was true if they told him i don't think that guy made it up i'll have to take a look at the youtube video don't lose that um but um you know you can pull that back

and save it if you can uh but um yeah it'll be interesting to see what he says he's pretty adamant about that that it was a photo op they loaded up the plane and then did nothing with it bottom line is they've loaded up fort bragg and they've done nothing with fort bragg to help anybody i guess that kind of um it all, doesn't it? Eric, thank you very much for the tip. I really do appreciate that. Thank you. And virus untreated.

Before we go to break, don't forget that after Trump was inaugurated, he said that the Clintons are great people. He has much respect for them. Make that make sense. I can make that make sense with one word jeffrey epstein uh yeah i could just imagine hillary and billy it's like uh you want to come after us we'll tell everybody about all those parties that you and melania had with us and jeffrey epstein and galene maxwell and everything these people are all blackmailed up one side and down the

other. We're going to take a quick break and when we come back we're going to talk about secession in Texas, New Hampshire, other places. There's a very long article from Reason. I won't go into all the detail about it. But I think there's some interesting things to see here. And I think it's also interesting what they did not

talk about that we're going to talk about. Unlike most revolutions where the people rise against a real economic oppression, in our case here in Boston, we are fighting for purely an abstract principle. It is, however, not nearly so abstract as the young gentleman supposes. The issue involved here is one of monopoly. Today, the British government will monopolize the sale of tea in our country. Tomorrow, it will be something else. ¶¶ Liberty. It's your move you're listening to the david knight show marty thank you very much for the tip and marty who has done matching funds many times says a mid month move the needle uh thank you very much And I think the gas gauge has been updated to we're at half now.

And that is thanks to a lot of people who have given us. And this is the checks I haven't even gone through and read the Zelle and Cash app stuff. But I want to thank the people who have sent us checks. Mary Ellen Moore and Free Minds Films. David and Debbie W. checks uh millie mary ellen moore sorry mary ellen moore uh and free minds films uh david and debbie w mark and jamie l joel b martin k kimberly s timothy w martin t uh georgia mom aaron f john r mom, Aaron F, John R, Scott C, Deborah T, Aaron W, Chuck and Robin C. I know Chuck and Robin locally. Margaret, Mary T, Austin M, and Ryan F. Thank you so much. And Ryan has supported us so many ways and so many different platforms, sets up the telegram channel for us as well which i have not yet been able to find the time to get my head around it um and uh but i appreciate him

doing that because we've just been so busy and he actually found the clip for me which i haven't even had time to look at my own clip um i said many times i said i posed i talked about you know alex telling everybody well this is a safe vaccine that trump's got and i said many times, I said, I opposed, I talked about, you know, Alex telling everybody, well, this is a safe vaccine that Trump's got. And I talked many times about how he sandbagged me at the end of a show. Ryan found that clip and sent it to me. And I apologize, Ryan. I haven't had time to look at that clip. I just, um, it it's, we get into this mode and, uh, but anyway, I do want to see that.

And, uh, when I find that I'll show it it to you guys when I look at the end of it. Let's talk a little bit about secession, as I said. This, again, is from Reason, and a very long article that they put about secession. Secession is back in style in Texas. Can't Americans all just get along? Well, maybe we can't. And perhaps we shouldn't have to. That's right.

Maybe we should understand that the district of criminals cannot be reformed. They are repeat offenders. And there's a lot of recidivism going on because they keep grifting with the cash. It is a distraction as well as a disaster. It is a waste of time and money to focus on these federal elections. That doesn't mean that you don't get focused on elections. There's still some possibility that you can change things at the state and local level, but there is no possibility that you're going to change it at the federal level.

And so they point out the fight over the border, Abbott being frustrated and how this is kind of fed into the Texas situation. Of course, we know they put up temporary borders because Biden wouldn't do anything. And so then Biden took action when they put up some temporary borders with a concertina wire and stuff. They sent a bulldozer out there and removed it. Just amazing. Just in case

you you didn't know that was their policy it wasn't just benign neglect it was direct sabotage and so abbott launched operation lone star in 2021 spending two billion dollars a year of state money to protect the border but border crossings continued to grow after that. Because, you know, $2 billion, when you've got a government spending it, they don't necessarily spend it effectively. And then you have lawsuits being filed back and forth. Washington responded by suing Texas over various issues. The question is, though, who's rebelling?

Same question we had with the Civil War, so-called. Who was rebelling against the Constitution and lawful authority? Was it the states that seceded, or was it Lincoln? And so they're asserting that the law, in the Texas law, they say that they have the power to regulate the entry and removal of non-citizens. And so this is part of a lawsuit as to whether or not this state law is valid, because the feds aren't doing it. And what the state of Texas is saying, they're appealing to Article 1, Section 10, Clause 3 of the Constitution, which says, quote, No state shall, without the consent of Congress, engage in war unless actually invaded

or in such imminent danger as will not admit of delay. And so Abbott is saying, well, we've been invaded. And they respond and say, no, what you're doing is an insurrection. And so they're going to go to court over this. The federal government said Abbott has broken the compact between the United States and the states by failing in its constitutional duty to enforce federal law and uh so when you look at this uh as soon as somebody says anything about self-governance or secession everybody says civil war so war and it scares people to death laws protecting states including immigration laws on the books right now they have failed to enforce

those says texas well one person speaking for MSNBC said, well, those words sound like a call for a 21st century civil war, said the former Watergate prosecutor, Jill Weinbanks. The opening sentence alone would not be out of place among the declarations of secession issued nearly 165 years ago. Well, that's true. So what? So what? So what?

Two weeks later, Daniel Miller, founder of the Texas Nationalist Movement, hand-delivered to Abbott's desk a package containing 139,000 signatures of Texans who called for a statewide ballot referendum on independence. Miller says this is an issue that transcends partisan divide and is in fact an issue of the people of Texas versus the entrenched political establishment. In this life cycle of an independence movement, we are outperforming Brexit. We are outperforming Scottish independence and we're outperforming Catalan and we're outperforming everyone at every stage of this process.

I reported on this a long time ago. I called it Texit. I remember when they were talking about Brexit and I remember Boris Johnson before he showed himself to be a backstabbing globalist puppet. He recorded a video in the back of his limousine talking about the reasons that they were going to do that. And I said, and if you stop and think about it, every one of these things, it was even stuff like, you know, well, they're telling us what we can do. And, you know, these are things that we have done. We've fished in these waters for millennia. And now the EU is telling Britons that they can't fish in these waters that they've always fished in we're sending way more money to the eu than we're getting back and on and on i

said well you can talk about that with texas or any other state and it is exponentially higher than the dollar amounts or the regulatory issues and all the rest of these grievances that they had with brexit all of that stuff is way worse with our federal government so abbott and the texas republican party basically threw out the petition we don't care we don't care what 139 000 signatures said we're going to ignore this because you see that's what these political parties are for when we look at the ballot and again you know it's amazing to see maga which has for the last four years and continues to bellyache about how the election was stolen from him. Okay. Will not accept the results of this. And so, you know, but, and I said, as that stuff was happening, I said, well, I've been

in politics long enough to know better than to accept anything on face value. I don't trust any of these elections, frankly. And, you know, you're talking about electronic voting machines and you're talking about vote by mail, but it's even worse than that. It begins with ballot access and it begins with access to the debates. And that's precisely where the two political parties enter the fray. They make sure that nobody's going to get on the ballot except for them and nobody's going to get in the debates except for them. And they also make sure that if you've got somebody who wants to run as a candidate,

within those parties, like the Texas Republican Party, they'll make sure that issues like this, like independence, or they'll make sure that candidates are not allowed as well. So these political parties are the control mechanisms for the uniparty. That's why I despise them so much. Miller launched the texas nationalist movement in 2005 since then the organization has spearheaded initiatives that educate the public on the benefits of self-governance fostered community through

statewide development and advocated for legislation that aligns with our mission of independence they said it currently has 210,000 Facebook followers. It runs a political action committee, and as of September, its website insists the organization has over 623,000 registered supporters. We don't have big Daddy Warbucks types flinging money. It's not like that for us. We are 100% funded by our members and supporters.

Over 5,000 statewide volunteers who have combined to host more than 6 000 events our independence movement he says is a massive operation so far the pack portion of the operation has garnered only a little over 24 000 as of the end of the second quarter this year. And by that time, hadn't spent any of it. So, you know, you've got a situation where Lala, you know, that Saturday Night Live thing says, well, you've got a billion dollars. And she says, why aren't you winning? Says, I know, I scream that into my pillow every night. These people only got $24,000.

And see, that's, and you look at the money that is spent with trump and lala and how um at the very least something like this could be used as leverage against the established politicians and political parties better pay attention to us we're going to secede okay well you know but no not even going to do that we're going to secede. Okay, well, you know, but no, not even going to do that. They're too focused on Trump and Lala, Democrat, Republican, and Washington. So far, nearly 200 candidates for state level, mostly local office, have signed this pledge, although no current office holders, just candidates. Miller insists that if you look, and those are candidates that are going to be suppressed by the Republican Party, he says, if you look at the polling numbers for the issue, like a SurveyUSA poll in 2022, we know that a super majority of Republicans support this issue,

and we've got a majority of both Democrats and Republicans. We know that if this gets to a vote, independence wins not by a little, but by a lot. This movement, for what Miller likes to call Texit, rests on Article I, Section 2 of the Texas Constitution, which says, and of course you don't even need to have that, our country was founded on a declaration of independence and on the right of secession so if secession is not allowed then there's no legitimate excuse for our government to even exist all political power says the texas constitution is inherent in the people

and all free governments are founded on their authority and instituted for their benefit. They have, at all times, the inalienable right to alter, to reform, or to abolish their government in such a manner as they think expedient. Well, it sounds like it was written by people who believe the principles that this country was founded upon. But then they say, well, secession, of course, course of course emphasizes reason by writing it twice second time with an exclamation mark is a settled matter nationally and the supreme court's 1869 decision put it to bed right four years after the war now you'll never secede again well most state constitutions had that kind of language i just read to you and the texas constitution in most

states that kind of language was cut out in north and the texas constitution in most states that kind of language was cut out in north carolina they cut it out and pledged undying loyalty to the central government that they would never ever do that again and so forth but it is a basic human right and it doesn't matter what those pieces of paper say but is this the right way to approach it as reason says secession is of course a subtle matter nationally uh because you know king george said so or the supreme court or the federal government or the republican party of texas and the republican governor well no it doesn't make it so when texas became one of the United States, she entered into an indissoluble relation,

said the Supreme Court in 1869. Again, that's absolute nonsense. Since Americans have stubbornly continued to discuss at length the idea of secession, Stanford Levinson, at length the idea of secession stanford or stanford levinson a constitutional scholar at the university of texas has a brutal real politic rejoinder and he said it was settled not by the supreme court but it was settled by grant versus lee in other words, might, not right. You see? That's what settled it. Look, you can say that, you know, we got a Supreme Court decision from 1869. That settles it.

It's the law of the land. Well, you know, Roe v. Wade was like that, wasn't it? Supreme Court decisions are not the law of the land. It's an opinion. The court changes its opinion all the time. It needs to be held up to an unchanging document the constitution if you don't like what the constitution says change it don't ignore it many embrace the controversial originalist compact theory of the uniting of the states this is reason

writing this that the union was not necessarily meant to last forever but rather formed of sovereign states that reserve the right to depart if their citizens so choose. They seem to be skeptical of this idea. It's prima facie obvious if you look at the Declaration of Independence. And of course, look, if the states, if sovereign states created the United States, and we have had sovereign nations create the United Nations. Well, folks, if we don't have the right of self-determination and to restructure our government, that means that we can't get out of the United Nations either.

That means that we've got to do everything that the United Nations tells us to do, even if they tell us to slit our own throats. We've got to do it because, hey, it's the UN. And we joined the UN. Now, the UN is a creature of sovereign nations, just as the United States is a creature of sovereign states. In December of 2023, then-state GOP chair Matt Rinaldi denied the validity of these 139,000 referendum signatures and it's interesting

the logic that he used he said it was a day late and yet that was one aspect of it the other part of it was well these are electronic signatures so how would the electronic signatures a day late Rinaldi stood by his procedural objections which also included the majority of names were e-signatures therefore invalid but Miller insists that a section of Texas business and commerce code that allows electronic signatures anywhere a signature is legally required should settle the matter. But then Rinaldi also admitted on a Texas talk show in January that he thought it was a bad political look to

have secession on a primary ballot in 2024 he feared that it would attract the wrong kinds of people this is what the put this see that what's one of the reasons I'm going this far into this because you need to see what these political parties are all about Republican included another complication I mean you look at the Democrats we talked about it when hillary ran oh she's got the super delegates with the super delegates where they speak why do they count more than everybody else oh they're part of the insiders of the party you know and so they basically anointed her she could lose to bernie sanders but she'd get more democrat delegates

than bernie sanders would and now we see with lala Harris, some unknown functionaries in the Democrat Party just appointed her there. Same thing, same purposes done by the Republican Party as well. There's another complication on the way to Texas. Texas has no established legal method for even holding a voter referendum. The state legislature would have to create a mechanism, and they can't be bothered. You have a Travisvis county republican party chair again the party there to block not just other parties from the ballot and from debate but the party is there to block candidates and ideas you see they're there to block conservative candidates and any kind of ideas that would threaten their political power. That's what the parties are there.

So it's pretty obvious they're there to block candidates and ballot access and debates. But it should be obvious to you that the purpose of these state parties is to block ideas. And to block anything that's anything or any person who challenges their status quo. So this Travis County Republican Party chair says, well, while technically everything in the platform of the Republican Party is something that elected officials are duly bound to support, one cannot assume that every GOP official or officeholder has fully incorporated every sentence into their governing strategies and philosophies.

So the secessionist Miller said he gets contacted on a weekly basis by pro-secession activists from other states. I've said before, my very first guest on my show was somebody in 2017. It started in August of 2017. Somebody in 2017 who had been working since Trump got in to get California to secede. And there were at least three or four organizations in California that were working to secede from the United States because Trump was president. And so I picked the biggest one and got them on to talk to them. And I said, how can I help you? I want to see people have their right of self-governance. And since the overwhelmingly liberal state of California is determined to shut down my self-governance,

how can I help you go your own way? You know, you guys uh free to do your own thing i'm not gonna you know try to stop you actually i want to help you they talk in this article about the fact that also new hampshire uh there is a movement where that's not just california texas but it's also new hampshire uh carla garrick i guess is the way you pronounce her name um guard would know i'm sure he'll jump in uh we got to take back our government and work to guarantee the protection of the rights and basic necessities of new hampshire residents she said well new hampshire already has seen a bill to create a ballot measure calling for secession that was introduced in 2022 it was debated openly on the floor uh and uh it was shut down there have

been two new secession related bills introduced this year as well but the guy who introduced the one in 2022 says um it's old news now in new hampshire he said nobody cares about this anymore he said the only reason that his 2022 effort was allowed to have open floor debate he believes is that the democrats thought that any republican on record that would support secession would soon be out of a job but he said that didn't happen didn't happen but they've lost uh their uh interest in it on the republican side democrats indeed held a hearing later in which they tried to get all 13 people who had sponsored this booted off the ballot.

They called them insurrectionists. But the public was not phased, he said. They have mixed opinions, some of them favorable. It didn't hurt me at all, nor did it benefit me much. There were not too many secession voters out there. Well, here's the thing. Secession is not the right way to proceed anyway. Michael Meharry, 10th Amendment Center, has been on many times with me. He says the rightful response to this tyranny is not secession.

That will most likely invite a violent response. And Trump and Lala and Biden, all of them are ready for a violent response that's what's dangerous about this election what's dangerous about this election is not that one of the other candidates one of these two evil candidates is going to win one of them is going to be appointed what is dangerous about this election is going to be how they're trying to weaponize everybody's expectations and frustrations to make sure that something violent is going to occur i saw this with january 6 i warned people about it january 6th that's why i was fired and i continued to warn people up to that day that very morning uh and i'm warning everybody about this as

well this is the real point of the election all All the other stuff that they talk about, that's about them. That's their egos. They're going to do, you know, Lala's got a billion dollars. And that's going to result in trillions of dollars of handouts to people who gave her those billions of dollars. That's the way it always works. They always get a thousand times the amount of money that they put in or more and the same thing with trump but when it comes to the vital issues for you and me they're a unit party so what do we do well peaceful nullification is a way to go even though reason doesn't mention it but they do say this um as they didn't even use the word nullification throughout the article but they

say this at the state level growth of first medical and then recreational marijuana shows that states can if they really want to depart from federal rules without departing from the union and we saw that here in tennessee as well not just with you know so many states and again it's um 30 something states have now made medical marijuana legal and i think it's more than half have made recreational marijuana legal that is nullification folks big time nullification that's the way it needs to be done. Do we have a civil war over that? No. But they shut down that prohibition. And then when it comes to the other side, gun control, which is a conservative issue.

In Tennessee, they nullified what Biden wanted. Biden has got his executive order and he's got his ATF and they're going to ban pistol braces. Well, as Senator Nicely said, we had him on the show. He said, we've already taken care of that. We did two things. First of all, we made pistol braces specifically legal. Secondly, we got a law that says anything that's declared as legal in the United States, in Texas, sorry, in Tennessee, anything that is legal in Tennessee cannot be prohibited by the federal government.

And we're not going to assist them. We will oppose them if they try to enforce that. That's the way it's done. Jeff Sessions, as much as he wanted to continue the war on drugs against marijuana, we laughed at him for having reefer madness. And again, I don't support, folks, the use of marijuana. I would tell you not to use it, just like I would tell you not to use it just like I would tell you not to use alcohol but I've seen the harm done by alcohol prohibition and by

marijuana prohibition and marijuana prohibition because it is run for so long like all the rest of the war on drugs has given us militarized police SWAT teams no-knock raids civil asset forfeiture and I could go on and on as well as corruption of law enforcement corruption of courts and the rest of this stuff the prohibition is not the way to go it's not the way to change people's lives um but it does show how nullification works both with guns and with pot so pick another issue that is important and nullify the federal government. We've got to nullify the federal government in terms of, you know, we need to be able to have, for example, instead of marijuana dispensers, what we really need are fuel dispensers.

We need to start looking at refineries within the given states so we don't have to go take the fuel across state lines and get involved with the federal government. We're going to need to have fuel. We're going to need to have spare parts for our cars to keep them going, even if we don't manufacture cars. And of course, if you take it from that standpoint, Eric Peters and I have talked for the longest time about how it used to be the case that you could buy really cheaply made cars teenagers could get them and everything they still have that type of thing and in france you know they have very cheap cars they don't have a whole lot of requirements about what it has to have from a safety standpoint and all the rest of stuff

and if you want to buy it you know you can buy it it's very cheap it's typically um you know learners permits people learners permits can get these things they don't go fast they have a limit as to how fast these cars will go but other than that because they don't have a lot of safety equipment on them i mean you'd still be um you still would be at risk if you had an automobile accident but um that's what my mom used to always tell me about that Spitfire that I had. That was like, you have an accident with any car and it's going to be like getting hit by the Mack truck. You know, she was right, of course.

But fortunately, I was able to avoid accidents with it because it was pretty nimble. But yeah, you basically was like driving a motorcycle. You should have that freedom to make those kinds of decisions. But, look, if we really set up this idea that if we've got products that don't cross the state lines, the government has no place to be involved. And that should be the case with ghost guns. It should be the case with all gun manufacturing. We should be able to manufacture cars, cheap and dirty, that don't go across state lines. You manufacture a car in your state, other people can buy it in your state, and the federal government has no business being there. The purpose of the Commerce Clause, that's another one the

Supreme Court got wrong during the FDR days. The purpose of the Commerce Clause was not to control all commerce. It was to stop one state from putting up protectionist boundaries on things that were made in another state. It was there to facilitate commerce. The federal government uses it to restrict commerce, like everything. They turn the Constitution upside down and inside out. So, in 2016, media outlets and pundits predicted that it would be the death of the independence movement, but we literally grew at the same rate during Trump as we did during Obama. Texas has been very clear that we want a strong border and sane immigration policy and neither one of those will ever be provided by the federal government he's right that includes trump being

there miller says he doesn't want to repeat of the mistakes of the scottish independent activists who he says saddled the question of independence with overly specific visions of what paths the newly freed political entity would pursue he said secessionists merely start with the realization that the federal government is unfixable. You start with the idea, the realization that the federal government is unfixable. We don't get to vote for two and a half million unelected bureaucrats or unaccountable federal judges. We don't get to vote for the senators from New York or California or Pennsylvania. That's it.

He's 100% right. I couldn't agree with him more. It is unfixable. You don't vote for these. That's what I said in 2020. I said, Trump has handed over the country to Fauci and these other bureaucrats, these public health dictators, these Gesundheit Führers. Yeah, stay healthy.

And I want you to be healthy, so I'm going to dictate everything in your life. I said, why would I vote in this election? We've been ruled by bureaucrats most of this year. And a kind of medical martial law. I'm not voting for this guy. And I will never vote for him or any people of his ilk and that includes the democrats because they also took that trump precedent and ran with it kept it in place so uh when we look at um secession the rightful way to proceed with

this is with nullification that is the way that we're going to move forward. It's 12 June 1776. That's the word to remember. Thank you for the tip. Very much. Thank you. It says, pray all is well. Thank you.

Let's move the needle. Thank you very much. And Khan, thank you for the tip. It says, money bomb Monday. Well, I appreciate that. Sam Miller, one, two, three. Thank you you for the tip. He says, Money Bomb Monday. Well, I appreciate that. Sam Miller, 123, thank you also for the tip. These are very generous. I appreciate that.

And he says, keep it going, folks. Anything helps. M Sellers, thank you for the tip. Says, happy Anti-Trump Monday, David. Keep up the good work. Don't frag me, bro. Thank you. He says, thank you very much.

He says,and is implementing proof of humanness through orb verify world id that's the world coin i think that sam altman did i think that's what that is uh europe again leading the way to total human oppression with tech and a collectivist mentality non-compliance means that you're not human and we're going to talk about that when we come and we're going to talk about that when we come back we're going to talk about elon musk's little adventure this weekend uh very interesting to see what he did um octo spook we'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the american public believes is false said william casey cia director 1981 we need to find our way back and guess what

bill casey was trump's campaign uh manager who said that who ran the iran contra thing bill casey who went to iran and said don't release the hostages until after reagan is sworn in well when i found out all that stuff it really put a whole new light on the reagan administration for me i tell you uh 12 june 1776 the secession of a state of the union depends on the will of the people of such state to deny this right would be inconsistent with the principle in which all our political systems are founded which is that people have in all cases a right to determine how they will be governed. What does it mean to have a democracy, right?

What does it mean to have a vote if you can't vote to leave? What does any of that stuff mean? And, you know, when you look at what happened with Ukraine, for example, and I've talked about this at the very beginning as well, we go in and we engineer a coup in Ukraine and we install a puppet government for our purposes. And the people who were in Crimea said, well, you know, for centuries we've been associated with Russia.

We don't want to be a part of that new government that's been installed by the CIA in Kiev. And they said, you can't leave. Well, wait a minute. Didn't you say that you just left Russia? And we've seen this type of thing over and over again the only time i've ever seen that uh consistently applied and not being hypocritical about it was when virginia seceded from the union just before the civil war you had the people in western virginia said well we want to stay in the union and they said all right you have the right of succession just as we do and we'll let you that's why we have the state of West Virginia.

It was born out of that because the Confederacy was not hypocritical like most of these other governments. And when we look at the ability of people to come together and to split apart, take a look at the Scandinavian countries. Pretty much all of the Scandinavian countries, Norway, Denmark, Sweden, they have all, Finland, they've all joined and separated in various combinations so many times and never had to have a war. Why is that? Why is that?

Well, he goes on to say the people are the only moving power. That's William Rawl, A View of the Constitution of the United States, 1825. That's right. The people. If we want to move, we just pick the state up and go. I mean, it's just that

simple. But yeah, it is up to the people. Should be up to the people. DG8, thank you for the tip. He says, David, what a disaster. Both Lala and Trump are tied to Diddy. That's right. Both of them compromised. Trump is also compromised with Epstein.

Yeah, that's right. Thank you for the blessing. Appreciate that. Yeah. Do not obey. Freedom. Trust in government, politics, and institutions has been permanently damaged. Some no longer even trust their own doctors.

I don't. I don't. I don't have a doctor anymore uh the next pandemic is supposedly just around the corner right yeah high verbal says david what if cannabis marijuana could help alleviate your son whistler's symptoms from antibiotic damage would you approve that yeah i would i would uh i don't have a problem with medical use. And I've talked about this. As a matter of fact, David Simpson was a Texas legislator who, a good, honest guy, he led the effort to stop the TSA from using the body scanners and pat-downs on kids and stuff like that. And it passed unanimously in the House. And then the lieutenant governor, who was a former CIA guy, his name is Dewhurst, he was set up in the oil business when he got out of the CIA,

and then he spent more than anybody had in history at that point in time to become lieutenant governor of Texas, and he shut it down, that guy. But when it comes to getting back to the marijuana thing, David Simpson proposed a bill, said, just strike the word marijuana from the Texas Criminal Code. It doesn't belong there. God created marijuana. We should not be regulating it.

It's none of our business. Should not be prohibiting it. That didn't go anywhere. However, he had two people in his jurisdiction who had children who had uncontrollable seizures. And folks, these are usually caused by vaccines so these are kids that in all likelihood had been vaccine damaged and the only way that the parents had been able to find that would stop this was to use medical marijuana and the families had gone to colorado at that time i think it was one of if not the only states that

had legal medical marijuana use and they came back to him and appealed to him and he took it to the texas legislature he said why should they have to risk going to jail or why should they have to go to colorado one of the families was unable to really move and he was able to get the state of texas to put in a medical exemption for marijuana uh even though medical uh marijuana is still prohibited and um you know uh in the state of texas and everything they made an ex an exemption for that one particular condition that you can have medical marijuana. Of course, they create all kinds of hurdles. You've got to go to doctor after doctor.

You've got to try every single pharmaceutical remedy that doesn't work and show that it didn't work with your child, and then you can use medical marijuana. But still, it just showed that it was a lie. It showed that it didn't belong to be a schedule one. My opposition to marijuana, I don't like the recreational use of marijuana, just like I would say I do not support the recreational use of tranquilizers or anything else that there might be a legitimate use for. I'm opposed to prohibition.

It's not that I support marijuana or oppose it. I think you ought to be able to make your own decision about it. I do oppose the recreational use of marijuana and of alcohol, but I would not prohibit it by law. That is a spiritual issue. And prohibiting stuff by law doesn't work so you can have that debate and people did have that debate about alcohol and they respected the constitution enough to put in the 18th amendment and then they had to put in the 21st amendment to get it out again but we don't

even respect the constitution let alone people's lives we'll take a quick break and we will be right back. ¶¶ © transcriptF-WATCH TV 2021 Liberty. It's your move. And now, The David Knight Show. liberty it's your move and now the david knight show oh here come the new stormtroopers courtesy of elon musk they walk among us or do they we're gonna talk about what is really behind this show. It's a show, folks. It's a pageant. Yeah.

Things didn't really go too well for Elon Musk. He's got his robots here. A group of kind of like automated stormtroopers coming out. And he also had his robo-taxi and robo-bus and all the other robo-this and that. He wants to take everything away from you that you control with your life. Here we go. Here's what they're going to do. They're going to pick up packages for you. Because, you know, you can't do that.

Water your plants. This is what you need to have a $50,000 robot for. It's going to keep you company playing games. There we go. Isn't that wonderful? Polishing the marble test top. Handing out drinks. It's wonderful to have a maid, isn't it?

Everybody ought to have a maid. Funny thing happened on the way to the technocracy. Yeah. Here he is. Oh, carrying in the groceries as well. Isn't that nice? Because I think everyone of the 8 billion people of Earth, I think everyone's going to want their Optimus buddy. And there's going to be maybe two.

And then they'll be producing products and services. I predict, actually, provided we address risks of digital superintelligence, 80% will... There's that little thing. ...probably be of good outcome. 80% chance they won't kill you. 80% will. The cost of products and services will decline dramatically, and basically anyone will be able to have any products and services they want. One of the things we wanted to show tonight was that Optimus is not a canned video. It's not walled off. The optimus robots will walk among you walk among you

we come in peace so you'll be able to walk right up to them and um they'll serve drinks at the bar. Oh, yeah. And we're going to see that just in a moment, right? Well, the reviews were not boffo. As a matter of fact, people want to get rid of their tickets after all this. It sure seems like the Optimus robots at Tesla's event were under human control. Well, you know, he says there's an 80% chance that they won't kill you so that's pretty good you know that's pretty good well maybe the glass instead of being 80 full maybe the glass

is 100 full of bs or maybe it's 80 right they did move they did walk but other than that it seems to be total bs and we didn't learn too much news from tesla's robo taxi event but one piece of information this happened on thursday one piece of information we were not looking forward to was a little information about optimus tesla's humanoid robot and we got some but it's maybe a little less flattering to tesla than some might have liked. This is from electric.co. After unveiling the robo-taxi and the cyber-cab and the robo-van, Elon Musk went on to give us a little bit of information about the Optimus humanoid robot that the company has been working on. We started up with someone in a robot suit.

Remember that? He introduced it, and he had people dressed up like that, and they're in the back, they're dancing around. That's a human. Come on on this is so hokey and phony so he said we started doing that and now we have progressed dramatically year after year and that's when they walked out uh he did not have it to the tune of the empire uh strikes back the imperial march just an opportunity for us to play a couple of uh john williams songs back to back anyway um he referred to these as quote your own personal r2d2 c3po now these robots would cost less than a car he he said, somewhere in $20,000 to $30,000 range. An autonomous assistant humanoid friend.

He said it'll be the biggest product of any kind ever. And he figured that everybody on Earth would want to have two of them. As I correctly point out, in areas where there's extreme poverty, they're wondering how they're going to get water. They don't have a car let alone two cars they are not going to have a couple of robots uh so it's not going to be something that all eight billion people on earth have but what he is selling you folks is a post-human world and this whole idea when he says well we're going to be wealthy it's gonna be an age of abundance he said where the cost of everything is going to drop dramatically

this is why they are labeled by you know people who look at them the technocracy they're also labeled as neo-marxist and uh if you if you look at marx they said at the beginning of the industrial revolution well because we can mass manufacture everything we're at an age of abundance and there isn't everybody should be able to have everything and look we have seen our material wealth increase are we any better off you got a lot of stuff don't you we all have a lot of stuff are we any better off and got a lot of stuff don't you we all have a lot of stuff are we any better off and of course there's people in poor countries that don't have a lot of stuff and those of us who do have a lot of stuff has that improved the quality of our life

uh or do we still struggle with the same things that people struggled with before the industrial age and maybe with some new first world problems george gilder talked about it in his book life after google he said hey i'm in my 80s and i think google's business model is so bad people are going to demand privacy and they're going to demand privacy not added on as a bag on the side but they're going to demand it as something that is fundamental to the architecture that is a foundation that cannot be ripped down. And as more and more set up and goes, and Google's business model is exactly the opposite. The problem is, as we were talking to Aaron Day about crypto, about gold and silver. He said, you know, older people value privacy,

but they don't value the technology that much. He said the younger people value the technology, but they understand the technology, but they don't value privacy enough to want this kind of stuff. And that's really the issue. But going back to George Gilder's approach, he called them neo-Marxists because he said this was the promise

of karl marx and everybody else look there's an abundance here and the only problem is that you've got these people who are hanging on to all the resources and they're not sharing with anybody and so we need to forcefully redistribute wealth that was the fundamental premise of marxism and so he says uh of course you know satanic aspect of it was there as well but i'm saying the economic argument they was making so what he's saying was these people in silicon valley are neo-marxist and there's no neo-marxist no technocrat more so than elon musk and so he's selling that to you just understand as we've mentioned before, you know, you all know that the Czech word for slave was robot. That's why that was coined in that one play, and we've been with that now.

How did slavery work out for us before? We're in a post, they want to push us into a post-human world, not just post-modern. So, Musk said, one of the things that we wanted to show tonight was that optimus is not a canned video that is not walled off the optimus robots will walk among you please be nice to the optimus robots you'll be able to walk right up to them and they will serve drinks at the bar and all the rest of this stuff he then did the speech by throwing to a group of humanoid robots dancing in a gazebo, not unlike a video made by Honda 10 years ago.

The robots waved, they handed out goodie bags, they served drinks, they posed for photos, they walked through the crowd, they even played rock, paper, scissors with people. Well, the robots did all have a tesla engineer minder who is watching them closely visibly holding some sort of a signaling device in their hand and in the video you can see one of the employees operating this device they've got it circled right there the official tesla video showed a few robots serving drinks though these are not custom mixed drinks merely two choices of pre-mixed drinks

served from beer taps the robots seemed to do so successfully enough though they were somewhat wobbly when serving the drinks but then attendees started posting videos from the event and something seemed a bit off see if you can spot the issues here hi everybody here's the bartender you're going to see how it's a bit wobbly hear him interacting what drink you think Hear him interacting? Interaction's a bit suspicious. We'll talk more about that. Would you like

Lala or Trump? Oh, okay. There he is. A little bit shaky on that, but he gets it there. Optimist today listen to this even talking hi to my friend john john where's john right here oh hello john how are you doing it's crazy i'm talking to a robot uh from san jose probably from where you were from where you were born in uh the silicon valley wonderful where do you live. That's wonderful. Where do you live in San Jose? Do you live in Almond Valley or do you live in Santa Teresa area? No, I live in Los Gatos.

Los Gatos, oh wonderful. That's a nice area. Where do you live? Beautiful hiking out here out there. There is. Where do you live? I live in Palo Alto at the current moment. Figures. Yeah, this is awesome. That's where they train us, that's where we get our builds, and that's where we work with a wonderful group of people. What's the hardest thing about being a robot?

Trying to learn how to be as human as you guys are. And that's something I try harder to do every day, and I hope that you will help us become that. Well, awesome. Nice to meet you, Optimus. You as well. Yeah, whose birthday is it? It's my birthday. Oh, my birthday? I'm not going to tell you how to do it, Doctor.

I'm going to sing you how to do it, sir. What is your name? I'm Chad. I'm Chad. All the robots have a sir. What is your name? I'm Chad. I'm Chad. All the robots have a different voice. You notice that? Everyone, let's all sing happy birthday together. While I dance.

Yeah, baby. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday. It's like singing happy bot day to you. How much of you is AI? I can't disclose just how much. That's something you'll have to find out later but some or not i would say it might be some i'm not gonna confirm but it might be some uh yeah and so uh it might some. And here's watch this where that red arrow is. You'll see the hand of somebody get into the video.

This is stage. They are actually doing it. We've seen pictures of this with Walt Disney World doing this. As I point out, this kind of stuff has been done since the 1940s where you would train the robots. You know, there's the Hall of Presidents and Lincoln. That was where a lot of that stuff started then they started doing animatronics everywhere that stuff rolled out in the 64 world's fair and um lincoln and then they expand it to the hall of presidents and everything and of course they're very mechanical and very slow moving and everything but and so the movements

are now more fluid and faster, accelerating and things like that. But that's what you would expect after 60 to 80 years of improvement on the motors and that type of thing. That's not unexpected. But still, if you've got somebody who is controlling this thing from a distance, that appears to be what's going on. Even that direct question as uh this author says on electric it said well you got a robot talking about the geography of the bay area that's a fun one not only does a robot make a very human error when it asks whether the attendee lives in the santa clarita area near Jose. It's Santa Clara, not Santa Clarita is in Southern California, not in the Bay Area.

It also hears a non-standard pronunciation, Los Gatos, and then responds with a more common one. One tech evangelist in attendance, Robert Scoble, said that he talked to an engineer at the event who told him that the Optimus was running on AI while walking through the crowd, but that otherwise it was human remote assistance. Most observers seem to think that there was some level of remote operation going on during the event. Even Adam Jonas, Morgan Stanley's analyst who covers Tesla, is usually very bullish on everything that Tesla announces, said in a note in the morning that it is our understanding that these robots were not operating entirely autonomously, but they relied on tele operators, human intervention. So it was more like a demonstration of degrees of freedom and agility.

Well, as a matter of fact, this whole thing was done in the 1990s, and it was far more convincing. As a matter of fact, if you want to use this guy, Mr. Zed, the robot comic, he could replace not only the robots, but Elon Musk himself. Hello, I'm Zed, prototype of the ZX line and the future of stand-up comedy. Well, what kind of audience do we have here this evening? Anyone on a first date? Good! Any football supporters? Good!

Anyone from out of town? Good! Good! Anyone from out of town? Good! Where are you from, sir? Good! Santa Clarita. To meet someone from your town. Of course, this isn't the actual action no this is just the warm-up now we could do it like this or we could use microwaves

you know how that works don't you yeah that would be much more entertaining i think mr zed of course back in the 1990s, Tesla decided to obscure the real information about the technology, suggesting that they were AI-driven robots that would walk among the crowd when really they were relying on some form of remote operation. And that just leaves a bitter taste in everybody's mouth, or at least in the mouths of those whose information comes from other than the heavily curated Twitter algorithm algorithm and so you've got a lot of um other robotics companies saying we're we're not fake we're not faking it when i show you a demo because you've seen the stuff done by figure one and now they've got a figure two that's out

there and it was very interactive with people but there was a pause just like where you from sir good you know and so it would interact in a very interesting way but there would be this pause these guys are just having a conversation i've seen this whole thing before we did this back in the college of engineering 45 years ago we used to get a kick out of it they'd have these little robots like an r2d2 type of thing and you would have people there with microphones and handlers and stuff you know the remote control move the thing around and they would bring in kids to uh try to get them interested in science and math and they were taken to the college of engineering and they would uh pull this thing out

and you know there would be somebody that's talking to the kid can hear what they're saying and talking to them and engaging them in conversation and the kids fell for it um but of course they were quite a bit younger than that adult that was standing there talking to them and engaging them in conversation and the kids fell for it um but of course they were quite a bit younger than that adult that was standing there talking to the robot about santa clarita i mean he went hook line and sinker for this thing apparently uh you can understand it when it's kids but it's a little bit different when it's somebody else so as people are pointing out the other part of the demo was also about his cars, his robo taxis and things like that. And perhaps it's because he didn't really have much to offer there that he put on this show about the robots. Tesla's not doing well as a car company.

They need a good, low-cost car, said some people on Y Combinator. Also, not doing too well on batteries. Plus, Tesla still has trouble parts and service. The company is nearly 20 years old. You would think that they would have that figured out by now. Tesla did fix its production volume production problems, but according to its own figures, the automaker produced 46,561 more vehicles than it delivered to customers during the first quarter of 2024. Where are these cars going? Parking lots at its factories, malls, and at airports. So what's the point of all this?

Folks, I said over and over again that Elon Musk is playing the long con. He's a showman. And that's what Twitter is for right when you look at what he's done with his stunts and his over promising and his vaporware and all the rest of the stuff that's why twitter is there you know jeff bezos bought the washington post he only spent 250 million dollars for it only uh but you know that was only like three or four days worth of his stock um uh giveaways right from from amazon uh so it's like you and i buying a bag of groceries or something you know but he bought the washington post why because he wanted to influence politicians

in washington dc elon musk is richer and he's smarter. He wants to influence the mass public. Not some politicians in Washington. So instead of buying a paper like the Washington Post, it's got a lot of influence of politicians. He buys Twitter. He's playing the long con. So these robots are not autonomous. Another one, Gizmodo. Everybody understands it.

They understand it's simply the game that we played with kids years and years ago. And just to remind you, okay, it even confesses. Now the robots and chat GPT can lie to you, but the person who was inside, who was doing the speaking, was trying to prevaricate around the bush. Hey, optimist, how much of you is AI? I can't disclose just how much. That's something you'll have to find out later. But some or none? I would say it might be some.

It might be some. I'm not going to confirm, but it might be some. Yeah, yeah. As Love of the Road says, for the love of the road says, thank you for the tip. He says, I've seen this movie before, I, Robot, Will Smith. As a matter of fact, the name, it's interesting you brought that up because the name of the event, and it was done at a Hollywood studio,

I think it was a Warner studio. I looked at it and was like, that looks like it's a Disney World or something. I think it was done in at a hollywood studio i think it's warner studio i looked at it's like that looks like it's a disney world or something i think it was at the warner studios they probably have a like a main street usa type of thing or something there uh but uh it was called we robot instead of i robot and brian shalhavi uh in his headline we not. That's what he put there. Not a bot. I'm not a bot here. Musk tries to continue deceiving America and the rest of the world that robots will replace humans.

Because this is what neo-Marxism, what the technocracy is about. And that, folks, is the issue. Not the technocracy and not the technology, but what is behind all of this. The worldview, the political view of these people and what their goals are. That's the real story here. Many of Musk's competitors already have robo-taxis on the road, including Google's Waymo driverless taxi, which Google has been developing over 15 years now, still only in three cities, San Francisco, Phoenix, and LA. Even in these cities, these robo-taxis are very limited in where they can

drive. They're not allowed on freeways or on other busy places like airports. But do these driverless taxis that have been in development for decades and a half truly operate without human beings? No. If the car gets into trouble or the passenger is in distress, they have to fall back to human intervention. Real human beings will take over the controls. I mean, they've already had a situation where all these cars went to one intersection and stopped, right? Remember that? And then people got so fed up with these things, they started

putting cones on their sensors so they wouldn't move. They would just shut down. They couldn't see anything. So it begs the question, how many human beings are required to operate a driverless automobile? How many angels fit on the head of a pen? And how many humans do a driverless automobile? Well, it turns out that reports in the media that looked at Zoox, Z-O-O-X, a self-driving car company owned by Amazon, that it takes Amazon one and a half people behind the scenes to operate a single driverless car it's very much like the scam that bezos had with his um just walk out convenience stores remember that well you know you you just check in and um you don't have to go through the checkout or anything you just take what you want and walk out and we'll charge it to you and what they found out was that it wasn't some uh amazing sensor that was tracking everything they had a thousand people in india that were watching and so with

these so-called driverless cars from the amazon uh company one and a half people per driverless car running this stuff. See, either way, the purpose of this is to control you. Either way, the purpose of this is for Bezos and for Musk to get rich. And the whole thing is a con game. Over and over again, they run this. Brian says, Trump told an audience at a campaign stop in Detroit just hours before this show that he was going to prevent autonomous vehicles from operating on American roads because that's what people want. He and vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance are also in favor of ending government subsidies on electric vehicles. And you know that this is going to end immediately with his connection to the technocracy.

And this is why Musk is sucking up to them, folks. An election is an advanced auction of stolen goods and influence. And this is why he's there. They're going to shut this down. He's safe with the Democrats. The Democrats don't want you to own anything. They're fully on board and they say it publicly. Trump, on the other hand, is telling you exactly the opposite so that you think that you've got a choice.

When he gets in, people like Musk are going to make sure that he does a full 180 and does exactly the same thing the Democrats are telling you they're going to do. Let's look at some of the simple facts about Tesla's main competitor, Waymo, owned by Google. It is held out as the model of success that all these other companies are looking at. It operates, as I said before, in only three cities. But it's considered to be the most successful robo-taxi currently available. It has, and they brag about the fact this has a hundred thousand paid rides to customers each week and san francisco phoenix and la combined well compare that he said uh to what's going on with uber he said and how much money has

google waymo sunk into this he said they've been around for 15 years now billions of dollars invested how much money are they making none zero in fact they're losing billions of dollars every quarter waymo had an operating loss of about two billion dollars in the first quarter this year, they are losing money, bleeding money, but hey, they can always make it up on volume. With even the industry leaders still in the red, it's a sobering reminder that the road to profitability is a long one with no guarantee that it won't lead to a dead end. And again, the issue is who wants it who needs it where is the efficiency here the whole purpose of all this stuff is to push us out you know travis kalownick who was the first ceo of uber said well the reason our car is expensive is because that other dude in the car you know the dude that owns the car the dude that owns the car says we're working on how to get rid

of them yeah we're going to how to get rid of them. Yeah, we're going to use them for a while, then we'll slit their throat and kick them out the door. Yet investors continue to pour money into Waymo, and its current valuation is said to be similar to the valuation of Uber. So again, Wall Street is about the greater fool. And Wall Street has unlimited money, just like the Federal Reserve's fiat currency. Because they just put stories out there.

You know, Moderna operated for 10 years without any product at all. But they made millions, tens of millions, hundreds of millions of dollars off the greater fool stuff. Hey, we got a story here. And they do a pump and dump on their stock. We got a drug that's going to fix everything or whatever. It's got a cure for this particular disease. And then everybody buys the stock on rumor. And then they go through and do some evaluations. Well, it doesn't do anything. It actually kills people. Oh, okay. Well, never mind. And then there's a big sell-off. But these people in the company are making money. And the company's making money. So

how does this 100,000 rides per week? That sounds pretty impressive in three cities. Uber is in almost every major city in the U S and does 23 million rides per day, not a hundred thousand per week, 23 million rides per day. Uber doesn't own a single car. And it only needs one human to operate the car that the human owns and yet when you look at the multiples of the stock valuation tesla is phenomenally higher

than uber so how in the world can investors on wall street and silicon valley spend so much money on a robo taxi that's still losing billions each year? And to estimate that its value is more than an established rideshare business that is now actually profitable and has 23 million customers each day compared to Waymo's 14,000 customers each day. While Waymo is losing billions of dollars for 15 years now. Well, there's only one reason. Because it is a religious-like faith in technology. And in the technocrats, like Elon Musk. That's right. That's the value of Twitter.

Is to build up his character. So that people buy into the stock. Buy into his vision. This is a satanic cult, says Brian Shulhavi, that is literally making people insane. I meet these religious cult members all the time when they comment on articles I write that expose the truth about Elon Musk, such as the one I published last week.

Here's a comment sent to me, says from somebody named Victoria. Subject, Elon is actually a hero. You have no idea what you're talking about. I get this kind of stuff all the time. I'm finally going to have to unsubscribe. Yep, that's what I get. You're living in a silo and you obviously don't know what's going on. If you're not on X, you're not getting the information you need to make sense of things.

Yeah, that's right. Curated for the benefit of Elon Musk. Elon is working to defend free speech and get Trump elected so the nation is not destroyed, all uppercase, by the deep state that's currently working to assassinate Trump. Is that the nation you want? To have assassinations of presidential candidates? I thought that's what the CIA has been doing for the last 80 years, both domestically and foreign. Okay.

Anyway, then she goes on to say, Israel's Mossad is no different than our own CIA. Trump can finally defame the CIA with the help of RFK Jr. Vive, bake the snake, Elon, Tulsi,

and many more who now see what's going on interesting they were all democrats you know you notice that rfk jr vivek the snake elon musk tulsi trump they were all democrats they are still all democrats they don't believe in limited government they don't believe in what we believe in terms of conservatives and the rest of they they're a bunch of new york jeffrey epstein democrats please get yourself on x follow mike ben's former state department working to expose the centralization industrial uh censorship industrial complex well it's also about since centralization. He says, so there you have it.

The Trump cult is joining forces with the Musk cult. Their church is X. And you've got to join it to be part of their religious cult and practice free speech where everyone else is banned who's not part of their church. And if you don't do this stuff. Now, with all of that, I thought this was really amazing. A robo-vacuum cleaner. Now, you know,

here's our first exposure to robots for most people, right? A Roomba. The robo-vacuum cleaners have turned racist after a hack attack, says ABC News. Owners of robot vacuum cleaners

in several U.S. cities have reported their devices being hacked, causing the appliances to shout out obscenities. So what are they going to do with these walking robots? A Minnesota lawyer told the outlet that he's watching TV when the Chinese-made Ecovacs D-Bot X2 started to malfunction. He said the noise coming from the robot, the Roomba, initially sounded like a broken up radio signal with brief snippets of what sounded like a voice. After seeing that a stranger had connected to the robot and was accessing its remote control feature, Swenson said he dismissed it as a glitch and he rebooted the vacuum cleaner.

However, shortly afterwards, it started moving again and this time yelled racist obscenities to the speaker. I got the impression it was a kid. Maybe they were just jumping from device to device, messing with families. Wow. Again, the cars and robots that walk among us, the cars that drive among us, the robots that walk among us. Are these Roombas a canary in the robotic coal mine? According to ABC, several similar hacking incidents have been reported in recent months across the U.S. In May, a hacked D-Bot X2 vacuum cleaner in L.A. was reported to have chased its owner's dog around the house,

apparently being steered remotely while swearing through its speakers. The same month, a robot in El Pas paso texas was reportedly spewing out racial slurs until the owner unplugged it this is the future that they have in mind for us and so then i haven't even talked about what happened with the cyber cab just suffice to say that it did not go over well this is his cyber cab it seats seats two people, no steering wheel, no brakes. And the stock plummeted after that. It tumbled 9% as the opening bell on Friday and recovered slightly,

but then it still remained down 8% as of the afternoon. Nobody is buying this stuff, and that's why he needs twitter a massive disappointment said investors well uh we're just about out of time and i want to um you know before we run out of time i just talk a little bit about uh making sure that you don't buy into this technocracy and the massive disappointment that's in it russia is now expediting the digital ruble the cbdc they're going to have it out by next year they said and they're going to force large banks to use it of course we're not russia right uh here in the

u.s and in canada they're saying well we talked about that CBDC. We're not going to do it. We changed our mind. I know we did all this research and everything else, and Biden had an all-of-government effort where they're going to figure out how to completely redesign the financial system. Now they're going to find out how to force us to use it and all the rest of this stuff. But, you know, we're not going to do that anymore.

Do you really believe that? These people want to control everything in our lives, not just our robots and our vacuum cleaners and our cars. They want to tell us what we can and cannot do. And they are actively working to collapse our society in every regard. And so just to be safe in terms of hyperinflation and things like that, but also to have a way to start a parallel, some capacity for a parallel society. It was interesting this morning that there was an article on Drudge saying the new millionaires are the plumbers and HVAC entrepreneurs.

In other words, people with small businesses that do plumbing and heating and cooling. That's how you can make money. I think that is very encouraging. If we do real stuff, if we get outside of this system, there's still plenty of opportunity. They've pretty much shut down manufacturing with China, the China price, and now with giving them a monopoly on cheap energy, you can pretty much forget about manufacturing and being able to compete in the market.

Now, you still should be able to, if we had the right laws, manufacture a bunch of stuff that the federal government doesn't want you to have for sale within your state, as I was saying earlier. But when you look at how do we get outside of this system we need to have some capital outside of that and i think it's very encouraging to see people who you can still do a service business right and that's what we're talking about plumbers and hvac it's a service business but it's a service business that requires a great deal of um uh you know it takes a lot more training than some of the other service businesses that were shut down on Main Street as part of Trump declaring that people were non-essential. So learn the skills, learn to be able to do real things.

Some of that is probably going to require you to learn how to do some 3D printing or some manufacturing of components when those things dry up so that you can still fix stuff, but developing those types of skills, but also having money that is going to exist outside of their system. Gold and silver. Tony Arderman has set up davidknight.gold. You can go there and that'll take you to Tony's Wise Wolf Gold. You can buy gold or silver, small or large amounts. And of course, he's also set up a way for you to be a part of a buying group so that you can get the discount that comes along

with being a buying group, get a better price. Even if you're just buying in a small amount, you know, $50 or 75 or whatever, he's got all these different levels that you can buy into and gradually accumulate gold. And when we look at what is happening in the markets, when we look at what is happening globally, every single country is, whether it's Russia or China, you can talk about bricks and all the rest of the stuff, but they're all focusing. They're all doing the same thing. When did we see that before? Didn't we just see that four years ago how they're all doing exactly the same thing in lockstep at the same time because they want to lock you down and it didn't matter china was doing it russia was doing it the u.s was doing it trudeau was doing it didn't matter if they were

supposedly marxist socialists or conservatives that matter if it was communist countries everybody was doing it and they're all doing the same thing when it comes to the cbdc and resetting the financial system and then they will all merge it together into a mark of the beast thank you The David Knight Show is a critical thinking super spreader.
