The David Knight Show - Mon Episode #1963: What’s the Purpose of this Circus: Oval Office Fight Club, EU Army, “Bitcoin” Reserve

Episode Date: March 3, 2025

Zelensky’s booted from the White House in a meme-fueled meltdown, while the EU’s army dreams vanish like CO2 — can’t have a military industrial complex when you’ve de-industrialized.  Starm...er’s UK brags ‘boots and planes,’ but Russia has to wipe off a smirk-ov. Musk and & Massie push a NATO exit.  Crypto’s a con—$200M bets and Fort Knox audits mask a cash grab. English-only? Money’s the real language of US govt. Fentanyl lies fuel tariffs, cops rob drivers blind for “smuggling cash, and Texas hides 2,300 pedo-teachers as the CIA pimps trans clinics in India.2:00White House Meltdown as Trump Kicks Out Ukraine’s ‘Comedian Puppet’ After a heated clash filled with insults, lies, and a humiliating ejection, the ‘little guy’ comedian—whose ‘jokes’ stink worse than his war games—saw his dreams of endless American handouts crumble. And the entertainment doesn’t stop there — the memes are flying—think pacifiers and T-shirts, capped off with the hilarious expressions on the faces of Rubio and the Ukrainian Ambassador.  There may be a shortage of eggs, but NOT of egos 34:13EU Dream of an EU Army: Is It Too Late for the Declining Continent?Zelensky is demanding EU microwave Russia’s frozen assets for him to feast on — far more than the $177B he stole from USA ($100B of which he doesn’t know the whereabouts).  After pampering their citizens with welfare and being pampered with state welfare from USA for 80 years, can they get it together?  Even IF they could summon the will, the “green” deindustrialization has them deep within the hole they dug for themselves 46:09“Boots on the Ground, Planes in the Air”?Bravado from UK PM Keir Starmer.  But how does UK stack up against Russia militarily? 53:13Musk, Massie, and Mike Lee Plot U.S. Exit from NATO“Toss the cold war relic into the Smithsonian dumpster”.  If we don’t exit NATO, will the EU warmongers drag us into yet another European World War? 57:56 LIVE comments from audience1:05:25Robert E Lee vs Zelensky: Is the Ukraine War a “Just War”?Yes, there’s a right to self-defense but that’s NOT THE ONLY CRITERIA 1:09:16Trump’s Crypto CurveBall: “Bitcoin Reserve” is NOT About BTC Ignoring Bitcoin Trump hyped XRP, Solana, and Cardano for a U.S. strategic reserve, only to backtrack and crown BTC and ETH the ‘heart’ after a firestorm.  - So what’s he and his crypto-conspirators up to? - And what about that $200 MILLION insider bet? CBDC is turning into PPP-DC (Public Private Partnership Digital Currency) 1:28:14What’s the PURPOSE for the CIRCUS? How Will Trump and Musk Use the Ft Knox “Audit”? Swiss banker scoffs at Bitcoin as a reserve for SEVERAL very good reasons.  But Fort Knox audit and $200 trillion land grabs expose the chaos plan to trash trust in everything but Musk and Trump. 1:44:38 LIVE comments from audience 1:54:15 Trump’s “English Only” Exec Order: MONEY is the REAL Language of Government, Especially the Trump AdministrationActually the pushback against Bill Clinton’s mandate to use non-English is a LOT more nuanced.  While hockey fans boo Canada over tariffs and influencers peddle fentanyl lies, Trump and Musk are shredding the rule of law for profit. Is this America’s last stand or a chaotic con to auction it all off?" 2:10:39 Trump’s Lying About the Canadian Fentanyl Crisis as an Excuse for TariffsSo who is the biggest supplier of fentanyl? 2:12:28“Smuggling Cash” is a Crime.  Should It Be?Cops snatch ‘cartel cash’ from drivers whose crime is “smuggling cash”.  They want us to believe that after 54 yrs of a failed “War on Drugs”, we’re winning? This isn’t a Drug War—it’s a war on, the Constitution, your God-given rights protected by the Constitution, and your wallet!  “Civil Forfeiture”?  Cops are not to be involved in “civil” procedures and “forfeiture” is just another name for THEFT WITHOUT DUE PROCESS 2:25:49 LIVE comments from audience 2:30:15Texas Hides 2,300 Pedophile Teachers, CIA Pushes Trans Chaos in India, Thieves Snag Ten CommandmentsTexas schools hiding 2,300 predator teachers and abortion pills driving women to despair.  The CIA/USAID is up to darker deeds, funding transgender clinics in India to spread demonic chaos.If you would like to support the show and our family please consider subscribing monthly here: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/the-david-knight-show Or you can send a donation throughMail: David Knight POB 994 Kodak, TN 37764Zelle: @DavidKnightShow@protonmail.comCash App at: $davidknightshowBTC to: bc1qkuec29hkuye4xse9unh7nptvu3y9qmv24vanh7Money should have intrinsic value AND transactional privacy: Go to DavidKnight.gold for great deals on physical gold/silverFor 10% off Gerald Celente's prescient Trends Journal, go to TrendsJournal.com and enter the code KNIGHTFor 10% off supplements and books, go to RNCstore.com and enter the code KNIGHTBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-david-knight-show--2653468/support.

Starting point is 00:01:14 As the clock strikes 13, it's Monday, the 3rd of March. Year of our Lord 2025. Well, we're going to talk, of course, about the Zelensky Fight Club. And it's interesting to see how people are lining up on this thing. You can see who the people are who always want war. Surprisingly, the one that goes against the grain is Miss Lindsey, who is always a sycophant to whatever power is going to get him in Washington. So we're going to take a look at that and at the response to it.
Starting point is 00:01:46 Is there going to be an EU army? Are we going to get out of NATO? And we have Trump declaring that the U.S. is going to be English only. I think that's a very good move. We'll see what will happen with that. But also a Bitcoin reserve? No, he's talking about a broad crypto reserve. Not just Bitcoin.
Starting point is 00:02:06 It's going to be some cryptos you've never heard of. Yeah, it's a big scam coming, folks. Big pump and dump. And then what happens after the pump and dump? Are they coming for everything in America? We'll be right back. Stay with us. Well, I got to say, one thing that disgusts me is sycophancy. And boy, there's a lot of it for Zelensky right now. You've seen this back and forth. I've got a little bit of it that I'll play for you. But everybody has seen it by now, I'm sure.
Starting point is 00:02:56 And I got to say, I really enjoyed seeing the little guy get his comeuppance. It's like, hopefully now that he's made it personal with trump and trump is really teed off and now maybe we can just stop all the money and all the weapons and let's hope that that happens i mean it's a good chance it's a good chance of course now it's all being redirected to israel okay so we aren't going to save any money and we're not going to have peace it's, they're moving the money and they're moving the wars to another front, uh, which is more in alignment with this interests. But the war party, as I said, sycophancy, you can see it in the war party. Take a look at the wall street journal, for example. Now, you know, the wall street journal,
Starting point is 00:03:40 uh, you know, quasi mainstream media conservative thing. So, so you know they're not fully on board with trump sometimes they'll cheer him sometimes they'll oppose him they're not like the left-wing media you know microsoft uh msnbc and uh cnn everything which always oppose everything he does regardless of how irrational the opposition is but wall street journal listen to this selensky who stood up to put, now refuses to bow to Trump, the Ukrainian leader who relies on his own instincts. Are you kidding me? He relies on U.S. money and weapons. That's what he relies on. And he has been there as a cat's paw for NATO to push for a war with Russia, to push for a nuclear war, folks.
Starting point is 00:04:26 Trump was right about that. You're flirting with a nuclear war. And I think that was the thing that really kicked Trump off, kicked me off, too. When Zelensky says, well, you're fortunate that you've got a big ocean here, but that's not going to protect you in the future. Hey, don't tell me what's going to protect us in the future. This guy has wanted to drag us into a world war with nuclear weapons from the very beginning this little homoerotic comedian puppet and i put comedian in air quotes there's nothing funny about this guy except the stench that comes from him uh absolutely deplorable what he's doing so in a televised clash this is wall
Starting point is 00:05:07 street journal listen to this in a televised clash after which the loonski and the rest of the ukrainian delegation were asked to leave the white house yes don't come back until you want peace right that was what he said better than got all these memes and don't come back until you got a suit or a david knight t-shirt or hoodie um no he'd probably get thrown out immediately with uh he wouldn't even he wouldn't even be allowed to sit in the white house if he had a david knight t-shirt or hoodie uh ukraine now faces not just a cutoff in vital american military assistance but a possible u.s agreement with moscow that leaves ukraine isolated so as i said i quite enjoyed watching that um
Starting point is 00:05:50 for once i'm cheering trump on this thing that was really a strange feeling uh z z began his attack with a so-called history lesson. And everything about it was entirely false. It goes back to 2014. He doesn't mention the CIA coup that was involved that began that. He doesn't talk about five years of Kiev shelling its own citizens in eastern Ukraine. He doesn't mention the fact that he ran on a platform of peace in 2019. And then right after they were elected, he sent Alexei Arestovich. I played that, talked about it many, many, many,
Starting point is 00:06:34 many times. I'll say it one more time. He goes as head of the delegation for peace, and he comes back, and they said, well, what's the chances of peace? He said, none. She said, oh, that's horrible. And he goes, no, it's going to get worse. In three years, we're going to have war with Russia. How'd they know that? This is the Ukrainian representative for Zelensky. How'd they know? Three years.
Starting point is 00:06:57 And he said, it's going to be horrible. This country is going to be completely destroyed. There'll be havoc, is the way it was translated. And she said, that's horrible. And he goes, no, the good news is we get into NATO. These are the geopolitical games that they're playing folks. They play games of people's lives, their own citizens. They'll play games with your life as well. If you let them, our government, as well as the Ukrainian government, the Russian government, all of them, all of them will do this. Your money, your blood mean nothing to them.
Starting point is 00:07:22 You are nothing but pawns on a chess board that's where the chess game comes in and they don't care at all about you they don't even care what happens to their country as long as it achieves their goals of okay well now i'm in with a club you know hey the country that i was over completely destroyed but hey i'm now in the club i got in the club the club that you ain't in so um let me just pray play this uh right here for you this is the prelude to war uh the war that happened in the oval office but you're never gonna get a deal that way so that's the way it goes all right one more question i would respond to this so look for four years the united United States of America,
Starting point is 00:08:05 we had a president who stood up at press conferences and talked tough about Vladimir Putin. And then Putin invaded Ukraine and destroyed a significant chunk of the country. The path to peace and the path to prosperity is maybe engaging in diplomacy. We tried the pathway of Joe Biden of thumping our chest and pretending that the President of the United States' words mattered more than the President of the United States' actions. What makes America a good country is America engaging in diplomacy. That's what President Trump is doing. Can I ask you? Sure. Yeah? Yeah. Okay, so he occupied it
Starting point is 00:08:50 our parts big parts of Ukraine part of East and Crimea So he occupied it on 2014 so During that was the reason I'm not speaking about just Biden But those time was Obama then President Obama thenama then president trump then president biden now president trump and god bless now president trump will stop him but during 2014 nobody stopped him he just occupied and took he killed people you know what the contact 2015 2014 he's completely lost he's not not here. Yeah, but. Exactly right. Still not there. He's still not there.
Starting point is 00:09:28 2015. I wasn't here. Now, you're not here today, even though it is 2025. You're still not here in the room. His head's not in it. No, look, all of that began with a Polish reporter saying that the people in Poland were a bit upset because trump was moving too close to putin or getting too friendly with him i forget exactly how it was worded but that's why uh you had uh jd vance say can i speak to that you know we've had all this tough tough talk and
Starting point is 00:09:57 everything what has that gotten us nowhere except closer to a nuclear war quite frankly and so he begins 2014 again you know it was putin who occupied and invaded the country well no actually you had kiev shelling his own people refusing to let them decide on their self-governance after a u.s cia engineered coup and these are people who for centuries have had deep ethnic religious linguistic political ties to russia and um again you know for whatever reason you know you may not understand it i may not understand it but they wanted to be with russia uh so that's their choice isn't it oh no europe is not about that not about that at all and they have the audacity as they're talking about the eu army you're going to see ursula fond of lying is going to talk about how well what cannot stand is somebody trying to change borders uh what is it that the cia does all
Starting point is 00:11:01 the time maybe we should outlaw the cia maybe we should all go to war against the CIA. How about that? We could have an alliance of Russia, America, Europe, all of them against the CIA and our intelligence agencies because they're the ones who are creating all these problems, all these wars and coups. So, again, he ran on a platform of peace and betrayed all of that. Well, so it escalated, this back and forth in the White House.
Starting point is 00:11:29 And to give you an idea of what it looks like, here's a shot of what happened later on. Stop it, I'm ticklish! Oh, my God, you're ticklish. Yeah, that's it. That's it, exactly. Been a lot of memes out there. I love this one where Selinsky is a shrunken up little kid with a pacifier in his mouth. What you're doing is very disrespectful to the country, this country.
Starting point is 00:12:01 Yeah, AI can be a lot of fun for this kind of stuff can't it uh and uh while it entertains us it is scheming in the background to uh run everything in our lives so and the spy on everything that we do uh so by refusing now back to the wall street journal and their disgusting sycophancy by refusing to bend in washington zolinski was the honor of europe what what europe has been bowing to washington for 80 years in case you haven't noticed um but now it is important uh is upon us europeans to decide what we want to be when they grow up. Take the pacifier out of the, you could set up a whole line if you wanted to do an AI thing
Starting point is 00:12:51 of this meeting coming up on the 6th, coming up in three days. They're going to have a meeting about the EU army and then of course Trump is going to have a Bitcoin reserve or crypto reserve, we should say now. Crypto reserve meeting on the 7th, the next day. But when Europe gets together and all these leaders get together and they decide what they want to be when they grow up,
Starting point is 00:13:16 you get to pick all of them like Zelensky, a little toddler with a temper tantrum with a pacifier in his mouth. And whether we want to be, this is coming from the French Prime Minister, Francois Bayrou, I guess is how you pronounce his name. I don't know. Well, good. Good. When you guys grow up and you're able to defend yourself, let me get some fisticuffs in there, maybe we can get rid of NATO and can stop being your nursemaid.
Starting point is 00:13:46 But this is Wall Street Journal. Even Republican leaders who used to be friendly to Ukraine. I've never seen Lindsey Graham described as friendly to anybody. Except somebody who wants something from, right? It was Lindsey Graham, remember, back in 2014, 2015. It was Lindsey Graham. John McCain was still still alive the two of them go there lindsey graham is telling the ukrainians uh next year we're going after putin and they're like what you know looking at each other it's like we really want to do this because russia had not invaded at that point in time in spite of what zelensky says so lindsey
Starting point is 00:14:23 graham professed admiration for trump's handling of the encounter because here's the sycophancy from the other side he says i don't know if we can ever do business with zelinski again what you got enough of that money that was kicked back to you then lindsey for all the war stuff you don't need anymore that's not in the nature of this thing you know once once they taste the forbidden fruit they can't get enough of it at the meeting with trump zolinski made a choice for war uh it is his common choice with putin said a opposition ukrainian leader who said on telegram ukraine is above everything is also above the biggest ego and pride yeah that's what zelinsky is about he's a puppet he's a cat's paw among ukrainian troops
Starting point is 00:15:14 on the front lines the mood was more of quiet pride according to the wall street journal do you believe anything they say at this point? Then despair. After the clash in the Oval Office, they said, one said, I am proud of Zelensky who stood up for our honor. He stood up for our soldiers so they wouldn't have just died for nothing. I'm sorry, but your soldiers did die for nothing. Now, you can kill more of them and think that you're going to give them meaning, but they already died for nothing. And the sooner you understand that, the sooner this war stops. In virtually every war, virtually, not every war, but in virtually every war, the soldiers die for nothing.
Starting point is 00:15:55 They die because, like Smedley Butler said, the International Fruit Company or some other vested interest wants the war. And they use our money and our blood. Wake up about this. So, yeah, we're going to keep repaying evil for evil. Is that the Christian way? That's the way to have a Hatfields and McCoy. That's the way it never ends, right?
Starting point is 00:16:20 You can see how this goes. And, of course, when you look at Israel, that's been happening there forever. And it just keeps escalating. Nobody wants to ever pull back. So it doesn't make the death of your friends and comrades meaningful to continue the war. They think that it might be meaningful if they win, but they don't have a chance of winning. That's the key issue.
Starting point is 00:16:49 And so, asked on Fox News on Friday night about Senator Graham's suggestion that Zelensky resign, Zelensky said such decisions were up to the Ukrainian people. Listen to this. This is really rich. He said, Americans vote for the American president. Each European country votes for their president, He said, Americans vote for the American president. Each European country votes for their president.
Starting point is 00:17:09 And only Ukrainians vote for their president. Except he suspended the elections. And he arrested the opposition. And then he goes on Fox News. I wonder if Brett Baer let him get away with this. I'm looking at the Wall Street Journal recounting this. I didn't go back and look at the interview that he had with Brett Baer. If Brett Baer let him get away with that statement, seriously? Seriously? You shut down the elections? You arrested
Starting point is 00:17:32 your opponents and you talked to us about an election? You're nothing but a bought little comedian and you're not funny anymore. And that's the way the Wall Street Journal story ends. It ends with them leaving that lie and letting it end with that. Well, we're a proud, independent people. And we have democracy. Always the, not necessarily the last refuge of a scoundrel is patriotism, I guess. The first one is democracy, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:18:03 When they don't care about individual liberties. When they don't care about individual liberties, where they don't care. You've got these people like Ursula, fond of lying, who absolutely hates the First Amendment. And she's out there talking about self-governance and all the rest of the stuff. Look, if they believed in self-governance, this war would not have started in the first place. You wouldn't have had NATO pushing, pushing, pushing, using this coup and these puppets that they put in there as a cat's paw. You would not have had Ukraine would have just said, oh, okay, you guys don't want to be a part of our government? Well, go see how you like Putin.
Starting point is 00:18:36 And then we've had enough of that. We'll accept you back if he'll let you go. And, of course, that's why he would not let them go either. They wouldn't have the freedom of self-governance. This is what these people, when they talk about democracy and all the rest of this stuff, it's just amazing lies and hypocrisy.
Starting point is 00:18:53 So, Zelensky says, this is anti-war, Zelensky passed on the deal, and he decided to fight. That's it, it's a deal. So, yeah, he's ignorant and uninterested in the cause of war. All Trump wants is just a peace for whatever his purposes are. And I think his purposes are so he can shift resources to Israel.
Starting point is 00:19:21 He can focus there. Ukraine's a distraction for him. And here's a schoolchild's take on this thing this is trump talking about what happened he said look zolinski was fighting with a much bigger entity much bigger much more powerful he shouldn't have done that because we could have made a deal and it would have been a deal that would have been well it would have been a nothing deal would have been, well, it would have been a nothing deal. That's a great movie. We've got 40 chess master in the White House playing this stuff. He's a con man.
Starting point is 00:19:58 We're sitting there watching it, Karen and I laughing, because he keeps going back to, you know, you haven't got the cards. I got the cards. This deal. And all of a sudden, you can tell this guy has spent his entire life with the mafia and casinos, right? It's all about cards and deals and the rest of this stuff. And then this. Did Obama give sheets to Ukraine? I had this thing. Sheets and javelins.
Starting point is 00:20:14 Sheets and javelins. I had to look it up. I was like, what in the world is he talking about? Well, it's a reference to $600 million in non-lethal assistance, blankets and things like that, but also included some vehicles and night vision goggles. That was just getting us kicked off with Obama. And so Trump says, well, that was Obama. He gave you sheets. I gave you javelins. I gave you the javelins to take out all those tanks. Obama gave you sheets. In fact, the statement is, he just realized, I've got a soundbite here. Stop the presses. Hold on. I'll explain the statement. The statement is, I've got a sound bite here. Stop. The press is, hold on. I'll explain the statement.
Starting point is 00:20:45 The statement is, Obama gave sheets and Trump gave javelins. You've got to be more thankful because let me tell you, you don't have the cards. With us, you've got the cards. But without us, you haven't got any cards. Here it is. You can hear it for yourself. That wasn't with me. That wasn't with me.
Starting point is 00:21:02 That was with a guy named Biden who was not a smart person. That was with Obama. He's a wise guy. That was with Obama who gave you sheets and I gave you javelins. I gave you the javelins to take out all those tanks. Obama gave you sheets. In fact, the statement is Obama gave sheets and Trump gave javelins. You got to be more thankful because let me tell you
Starting point is 00:21:27 you don't have the cards with us you have the cards without us you don't have any cards a good deal well the guy who had all the cards uh went bankrupt with several casinos i forget the exact total of them anyway um now this is being portrayed by the left-wing media that wants war, the war press. He was set up by Trump. Well, no, he actually wasn't. It went on for quite some time before it blew up. And I showed you about the point where it blew up. It blew up as he engages J.d vance and he decided to engage
Starting point is 00:22:08 jd vance jd vance was answering and commenting on a polish reporter's response and so zielinski goes for vance um and he well one of the things you know he speaks english pretty well but he typically with interviews he'll have a translator. And some people said it would have really been smart for him to have a translator because that would have slowed things down. But he decided that he's going to speak English. And then it devolved into this. But if he'd had a translator, it would have given him an opportunity to think, which he obviously was not doing. So this is an article from PJ Media. It says a liberal reporter destroyed the left's narrative
Starting point is 00:22:53 about Zelensky's meeting with Trump. Well, actually, no. Michael Tracy is a liberal only if you're wearing Trump partisan blinders, if you're so embedded in this left-right thinking. Oh, well, if he's not for Trump all the time, then he's got to be a left-wing guy. No, Michael Tracy isn't. He's pretty balanced, actually. So he says, don't take my word for it. Even some voices on the left. Again, this person who is stuck, PJ Media, stuck in this paradigm.
Starting point is 00:23:21 Grow up. Get out of the box you've put yourself in. Stop being a cheerleader for one side or the other. Well, if you're not with us, you're against us. Even some voices on the left couldn't stomach the blatant mischaracterization of what actually happened. Independent journalist, he's independent.
Starting point is 00:23:39 He's not left, he's not right. Michael Tracy, who's certainly no MAGA fan, called out the absurdity of the ambush narrative being pushed by the mainstream media he said anyone who rationally washes the first 50 minutes will see that it was not an ambush the first 40 minutes were normal and cordial then came the self-inflicted meltdown by zielinski if you can't rationally describe the meeting, perhaps your policy extrapolations are also irrational. He said the irony is that he had already gotten what he came for and he blew it up.
Starting point is 00:24:18 He says the irony of that meeting was that they were on the cusp of formalizing Ukraine as a sort of U.S. protectorship, with continued U.S. military aid, quote-unquote, and a framework for deployment of NATO troops, all of which are major U.S. commitments under any circumstances. But it wasn't enough for Zelensky. Tracy said another irony is the paranoid EU overreactions to every Trump tiff. It's the end of the Western alliance, etc. It could impel at least some of them to take rash action vis-a-vis Ukraine, potentially ensnaring the US. Because that is the concern for all of us who don't want to have one war after the other and we're going to talk about that when we come back to um the um to the um come back to what is happening with this with the eu army but the bottom line is that europe can now if they're going to start a eu army if they're going to start trying to arm
Starting point is 00:25:20 themselves if they're going to be belligerent, and look, they don't have the money in the bank to cash the checks that they're trying to write. And if they go in and keep picking a fight with Russia, one that they can't win, if they invite an attack and some of these NATO countries' troops are attacked, they're going to go screaming, you know, it's kind of like the, you know, they're going to go screaming medic, medic, you know, it's kind of like the, you know, they're going to go screaming medic, medic, you know, and is the U.S. going to come to their rescue? And we have been involved in two world
Starting point is 00:25:55 wars, all of them European. And the Europeans have been in a situation where they have had a constant state of war. As a matter of fact, it's why George Washington talked about we're not going to get involved in any entangling alliances with European countries because they're in a constant state of war. Nothing has changed. They still want to be in a constant state of war. You know, so what alternative does Zelensky have? He doesn't really.
Starting point is 00:26:21 Trump is considering ending all aid to Ukraine. Good. The New York Times reported that weapons deliveries to Ukraine have slowed to a trickle even before Friday's heated exchange. However, Trump is now considering cutting off other support to Kiev. New York Times said the president might decide to and even end the indirect support being provided by the U.S., which includes other types of military financing, intelligence sharing, training for Ukrainian troops and pilots, and hosting a call center that manages international aid at a U.S. military base in Germany. The more we talk about this, the more obvious it is that this is a proxy war with the EU
Starting point is 00:27:06 and Biden and NATO against Russia. I mean, everybody hopefully can see this now. Why is this necessary to continue this? And so Zelensky in that Fox News interview says, well, we have to be very honest and very open. Yeah, well, try that for a change, right? You've lied to us about everything else, so that would be a refreshing change. He said, as to whether he thinks that he owed Trump an apology, Zelensky did not offer one.
Starting point is 00:27:37 He says, I'm not sure we did something bad. Some things we have to discuss out of media with all respect to democracy and free media but there are things that we have to understand and the position of ukraine and ukrainians i think that is the most important thing but zelinski did not say that he regretted the exchange well he may come to regret it um and so yet on, it appeared that he did regret it and that he is, as some people have characterized it, desperate to get back on track. And it looks like Trump is not interested. CBS News said Trump fully intended to sign the minerals deal today. Two official binders were prepared treasury secretary
Starting point is 00:28:26 scott besant and his ukrainian counterpart and the two presidents were going to sit at a conference table in the east room and then trumpet their success at the podiums but none of that happened and so they said because all this was prepared everything was set and just blew up and ended it. It said none of this drama was premeditated. The greeting with Trump and Zelensky was warm. Jokes and guest books were signed in the West Wing lobby. And one person says, look at this expression on Rubio's face. Here it is.
Starting point is 00:29:01 When this is happening, J.D. Vance is smiling real big and rubio's like oh no but even better i think is the is what was happening with the ukrainian ambassador here's a video of the ukrainian ambassador cringing in her seat head down no yeah that's the ukrainian ambassador she's like no no this is not going really well and um but of course again it was it was all set and it was a regular meeting. The only thing that I'm aware of that had happened before that was a taunt from somebody who was there with the press or maybe it was one of these influencers or something, criticized Zelensky for wearing a T-shirt and not a suit. My second question for President Zelensky. Why don't you wear a you ever why don't you wear a suit why don't you wear a suit you're the highest level in this country's office and you refuse to wear a suit look at rubio he's not laughing yeah jd vance is a lot of americans
Starting point is 00:30:17 have problems with you not really i don't have such uh i will wear a costume after this war will finish. Yes, maybe something like yours, yes. Maybe something better, I don't know. We'll see. Maybe something cheaper. He's got lots of money. Yes, maybe I'll wear a suit like yours. Maybe something better. Yeah yeah that's right um and that question was asked you can see that expression from marco rubio
Starting point is 00:30:55 sitting there over the side he's like you know and jd vance was laughing it up maybe that's one of the reasons why zalinski went for jd vance later on maybe it was the t-shirt thing he says and then i'll wear a costume hey pal you've been wearing a costume for three years we're sick of the costume again he's nothing but a a little puppet actor all of them are quite frankly and then um saturday night live did their skit. I'm not going to play it, but it was all about the fact that, oh, suits? Well, you know, we have Elon Musk doesn't ever have to wear a suit, does he? Right?
Starting point is 00:31:39 Here he is in the, remember when he brought his kid to work? President Musk came into the Oval Office, and he is wearing kind of a suit. It's kind of like an overcoat, but underneath it, he's got a t-shirt and he's wearing a ball cap. There you go. How's that for respecting the oval office, uh, brought his kid who came in and told Trump that you need to shut up and get out of here. I don't like you. I'm going to wish you into the cornfield.
Starting point is 00:32:00 Uh, so look at him and Musk comes in musk doesn't wear a suit i imagine when you look at this i don't know it's a little bit long so maybe he did come prepared with that kind of reminds me when you go to a nice restaurant or something you're wearing a t-shirt and they don't just show you the door if they uh know you or something uh sir we've got jackets here in case you don't have a jacket, but a jacket is required. I guess somebody did that with him, but nobody did that to Zelensky. So we're going to take a break and when we come back, we're going to talk about the EU army. We're going to talk about NATO and what is going to happen to that.
Starting point is 00:32:39 And even the UN is coming up now. So we'll be right back. Hello, it's me, Volodymyr Zelensky. I'm so tired of wearing these same T-shirts everywhere for years. You'd think with all the billions I've skimmed off America, I could dress better. And I could, if only David Knight would send me one of his beautiful gray MacGuffin hoodies or a new black T-shirt with the McGuffin logo in blue. But he told me to get lost.
Starting point is 00:33:08 Maybe one of you American suckers can buy me some at the David Knight Show dot com. You should be able to buy me several hundred. Those amazing sand-colored microphone hoodies are so beautiful. I'd wear something other than green military cosplay to my various galas and social events. If you want to save on shipping, just put it in the next package of bombs and missiles coming from the USA. Excellencies, ladies and gentlemen, your annual global risk report makes for a stunning and sobering read.
Starting point is 00:33:59 For the global business community, the top concern for the next two years is not conflict or climate. It is disinformation and misinformation, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. You are listening to The David Knight Show. Yeah, and we're going to talk about her. She's had something to say about all this stuff. She hates free speech. She wants war. I mean, these people are beyond reprehensible.
Starting point is 00:34:52 And one listener was laughing about the fact that she refers to Klaus Schwab as Herr Klaus instead of Herr Schwab. I don't know if that's a German term of endearment. It is strange for people who speak English. That's like saying, well, Mr. Donald, you know, that's pretty much what she did. I got an interesting couple of comments here. Junk Silver says, good morning. Google refunded my $50 matching funds rent from last week. I didn't request this.
Starting point is 00:35:22 Did this happen to anyone else? I'm not sure what you're talking about uh we don't have anything with google i've been declared a non-person by the google cartel uh i'm not allowed on youtube i don't even have they shut down my music channel on youtube um i you know i can't log in i can't log in and, you know, do anything on Google. Uh, so I'm not sure what that's about. Maybe you could let us know if that was regarding us or regarding somebody else. Uh, Nibiru 2029 says wars are profitable for the aristocracy.
Starting point is 00:35:56 No one else. That's right. All wars are bankers wars because all wars are about money. Folks, banks, corporations, politicians politicians not your interest at all and that's all wars uh kwd 68 zielinski is going to get whacked i don't know we'll see what happens uh there's a lot of conspiracies out there saying zielinski was the one who was behind the butler assassination attempt i don't believe there was a Butler assassination attempt, so there you go. That's my take on it. Octo Spook. Every single member of elected government is uniparty.
Starting point is 00:36:32 They grew tired of prosecutions for their crimes long ago and now only protect each other. And screw average Americans. I agree. Arisha M. I watched it all in person when I worked for the local government. Now you know why I have zero respect for any of them, regardless of the R or D emblem they sport. Yeah, we need to get a T-shirt that says, Restoring Distrust in Government, the David Knight Show. DG8, that was Whistler's idea. DG8, thank you for the tip. He says, David, this is so staged.
Starting point is 00:37:05 Even the Saturday Night Live version has looked more real than that real thing trump even stated this is made for tv the whole world is a stage well i agree whatever they wanted to do i i do think that trump was genuinely angry though yeah and i think it is you know know, his, um, hopefully, uh, in this particular case, his, his petty narcissism will work to our advantage. That's kind of my take on it. So how Donald Trump has brought a European army one step closer. Now, normally I would say, fine, let them have their wars, do their own thing. I don't care.
Starting point is 00:37:42 We've already been drug into two wars in Europe, and we don't need to get drug into World War III in Europe. And Zelensky is out there boasting about how he doesn't need American money. You know, he's got, well, first of all, just a week or so ago he was saying, well, they say that I got the $177 billion. Well, I only got 77 billion i don't know where that other hundred billion dollars is i was like well check your wife's bank account okay shell corporations that she created she's got you know enough shell corporations it's like a modrioski doll and she uses that to buy luxury
Starting point is 00:38:21 properties and other things going on the shopping trip in Paris, spending $50,000 in an hour. You don't know where the $100 billion are? I know where I would start looking. Maybe Musk will figure it out and expose this stuff. But he's saying, well, you know, they say we got 177, and I only got 77 of it. I don't know where the other 100 is. But we've got 250 billion dollars of Russian assets that Europe could give me. Good money. Good.
Starting point is 00:38:50 Give us 250 250 billions, which are here in Europe, frozen Russian assets. No answer. Okay. So there you go go give it to us he wants those frozen assets you want to put in the microwave and sent to him uh so uh yeah audi modern retro radio the squabble between trump and zielinski was scripted well who knows i mean you know that's that's not my take on it. But, you know, it's I think I think the Butler thing was scripted this. I don't know. You know, it's it certainly looked to me like he was angry, but he's a good actor. He's a good actor. He's done a lot of world WWE wrestling. So maybe it was uh so this is the telegraph says trump's a public attack on zielinski has given
Starting point is 00:39:47 impetus to plans to join to have a joint eu fighting force that could one day become the embryo of a european army now here's the thing whether or not the the fight was scripted the bottom line is that trump wants to get out of this he wants to have a win i think he'd like to get the nobel peace prize like uh like obama that ain't gonna happen um and um you know if he if he ends it and he actually does get peace there uh it'll make them all the more mad at him because they want war but he wants war for israel with on the side of israel against iran that's why I think he wants to get out of this one way or the other and so whatever the motivation was for this whether it was organic or scripted I think that he does want to get out of this and so then the question becomes what do the
Starting point is 00:40:35 Europeans want well the Europeans are dead set on war and so now they've got to you know you want war well you and what army what army who's army? Who's got the army? You got an army left? No, I don't have an army either. These people have not only disarmed themselves. Yeah, he's a perfect example of what welfare does to you, right? When it comes to defense, all the European countries have been on american welfare for 80 years and they've become completely dependent and helpless that's the whole point of all welfare that's the point of universe universal basic income is to make you even more helpless after they take your job and so all welfare including state welfare makes everybody dependent and now they've done something
Starting point is 00:41:23 even worse to themselves. Worse to themselves. And that is all of this climate change stuff. They have de-industrialized. And they're very proud of it. And, you know, they've shut down their factories. They've shut down their energy. You're going to start building tanks using power from solar panels?
Starting point is 00:41:43 After you shut down your coal? Shut down your gas stuff. They're shutting down all of the industry. All of their, they don't even want to make cars anymore. How are they going to make tanks? Are they going to forget about the emissions of tanks? They're going to forget about the emissions of jets and bombers and all the rest of the stuff, but they don't have, their energy is too expensive. They shut everything down.
Starting point is 00:42:03 I mean, that's the key. You know, these are countries that are just circling the drain these european countries so they think they're going to go out and equip an army european leaders are scrambling to boost their collective defense the crisis has increased calls to ensure Europe can act independently of Washington. Good. Good. I'd say that's fine. Just remember, we don't want to have anything to do with these entangling alliances that have been going on for centuries and the wars that have been going on for centuries. Spain's foreign minister this week urged plans for a joint rapid reaction force.
Starting point is 00:42:45 5,000 soldiers. Oh, that should do it. They've been protected and kept for so long, they don't even understand what they need anymore. So Zelensky says, I really believe the time has come for the armed forces of Europe must be created for a nuclear war. And that was one of the things that, you know, in the exchange when he says, well, you're very lucky you got an ocean here. But the war is going to be coming to you.
Starting point is 00:43:16 And Trump says, who are you to say that? You're trying to start World War III. So we'll see. Germany's new chancellor-in-waiting, friedrich mertz i saw this i went i rolled on the floor laughing there this is how serious germany is their chancellor in waiting is fred mertz is the first lady gonna be ethel yeah lucy you got splaining to do here. So Fred Mertz said after his victory last week that Europe had to make itself independent from the U.S.
Starting point is 00:43:54 and warned that NATO could be dead by June. Let's hope so. I don't think it's had a pulse for quite some time, as it is. It's been a life support from the u.s for the last 80 years that's all it's just a shell as far as that it's that they want to imagine that they're partners in this thing they never were never were uh he told reporters it's five minutes to midnight for europe after suggesting that germany could ask for the shelter of Britain and France's nuclear deterrent.
Starting point is 00:44:29 This is a German guy. So they've got nuclear weapons and we don't. Okay, so maybe they could. So Fred Mertz's opinion matters. And as they say in this article from the Telegraph, It'll come as music to the ears of Emmanuel Macron, who may be enjoying his I told you so moment. Back in 2018, Macron declared that Europe could not be protected without a true European army.
Starting point is 00:44:54 The comments came after Jean-Claude Juncker, Ursula von der Leyen's predecessor as commission president, had called for an EU army in 2015. Remember that? When the Brexit thing was going on? And one of the things that the Brexit people were saying is, they want to create an EU army. This is a nation state they're trying to absorb everything else.
Starting point is 00:45:19 It was like, oh, you finally caught on to that, did you? After they replaced your currencies and all the rest of the stuff, you're finally catching on to what's going on with this? And they all said, no, no, no, we're not doing this. I said, yeah, you are. And then after Brexit, they admitted it. And now they're pushing for this. After the chaotic U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021, Macron and fond of lying, Ursula, pushed for the creation of a joint rapid reaction force.
Starting point is 00:45:49 The idea was this 5000 strong unit would mean that the EU would never again be solely dependent on the US and the crisis zones of the future. Well, 5000 man army. Europe's nightmare is here. A 5,000-man army. Europe's nightmare is here. Why do they have to now fight Putin without the U.S.? This is from Financial Post of the U.K. That's their headline. Headline from Zero Hedge. U.K., France, Ukraine agree to work on a ceasefire plan to present to the U.S.
Starting point is 00:46:21 Well, hey, if you guys are big boys now, put on your big boy pants. You don't need to have our permission, do you? You need us? Yeah, let's see if they'll buy this. And literally, they mean buy this. It's our money, our weapons, our soldiers. That's NATO. They have nothing to do with it and unfortunately it's our military industrial complex that is pushing us into war after war after war so maybe they want a military industrial complex the problem is that they've shut down their industrial complex it's kind of hard to have a military industrial complex when you've destroyed your industrial complex over this climate garbage and over your welfare state you know they got a free ride for years and years uh trump posted on his truth social account a quote from gartner
Starting point is 00:47:11 analyst michael mccoon according to whom zielinski now has quote no choice but to back down and to accept trump's terms suggesting that trump clearly is content with the outcome of Friday's debacle in the White House. Unfortunately, you know, this may just be, you know, if it is a strategy, he may be doing this to make this go through, which means that, again, they get to rob us and use our military. So I hope it was organic. Maybe I'm just imposing that because i want that to be true i want this to be uh an offended narcissist who's going to vindictively shut down nato and the un we can always dream right starmer says uk is ready to put boots on the ground
Starting point is 00:48:00 in ukraine will he have any soldiers with those boots? Is he going to send in sheets too? He's going to send in boots and sheets and beds and tents. While visiting Trump in the White House last week on Thursday, Keir Starmer said he was ready to, quote, put boots on the ground in Ukraine to provide security guarantee as part of a potential future peace agreement and uh they also mean he also said and planes in the air well let's take a look at this let's look at the uk versus russia how does that stack up let's do a reality check on kirstarma well uh
Starting point is 00:48:41 russia's got significantly more military personnel than the UK. Russia has approximately one and a half million military personnel, while the UK has around 212,000. This means that Russia has about seven times more military personnel than the UK. But that's okay, because they're putting together a rapid force of 5,000. 5,000. A one and a half million army. The odds are a bit stacked. But it gets even worse when you go down the equipment.
Starting point is 00:49:15 Which, again, remember that Keir Starmer, especially Keir Starmer of the Labour Party, de-industrializing the UK. And so take a look at the equipment when it comes to combat aircraft. Russia has nine times more, 1,900 versus 222. When it comes to attack helicopters, Russia has 1,655. The UK's got 66. They got 25 times more attack helicopters. How about battle tanks? Russia has 22,700. UK's got 227. 100 times more than the UK. Now, this may have changed somewhat during the Ukraine thing.
Starting point is 00:49:59 And that's one of the reasons why you had people like Lindsey Graham and Chris Christie say, this is great. You know, we're using up some of the massive Russian military equipment. It was always a proxy proxy war wasn't it how about the uh about their budget uh russia spends 50 percent more than the uk seems like they're getting a lot more bang for their buck only 50 percent more and look at how much equipment they've got but the eu is definitely going to militarize as i said we had ursula fond of lying she held a press conference talking about the eu meeting that's coming up on june the 7th this week i'm not june 7th march the 7th this week and here's where she's making big statements about the EU army. We urgently have to rearm Europe. And for that, I will present a comprehensive plan how to rearm Europe on the 6th of March,
Starting point is 00:50:55 when we have our European Council to the leaders. At what level of spending should individual countries make to defend? One thing is very sure, we have to have a surge in defence. We really have to step up massive the defence expenditure. And for that we need a clear big plan from the European Union for the member states and of course for common European domains, like for example advanced air shields, we need a common European approach, but also the member states need more fiscal space to do a search and defense. Have you won the argument with European colleagues about stepping up to the plate in terms of the money? Absolutely, we all have understood that after a long
Starting point is 00:51:38 time of underinvestment it is now of utmost importance to step up the defense investment for a prolonged period of time. to step up the defense investment for a prolonged period of time it's for the security of the European Union and we need in the strategic environment in which we live to prepare for the worst and therefore stepping up the defense. What message would you like to take to America? What message would you like to give to America after today's meeting? We are ready, together with you, to defend democracy,
Starting point is 00:52:17 to defend the principle that there is a rule of law that you cannot invade your neighbor and bully your neighbor, or you cannot change borders with force. Oh, so that's the only rule of law she's concerned about. The only rule of law she's concerned about. You can't change borders by force. But when it comes to rule of law like you know free speech and other things they're the ones who are going to rule you with their laws now what contemptible people they
Starting point is 00:52:49 are so yeah going back to this uh in terms of corvette warships soviet union has 18 times more than the uk and which is really pretty surprising when you think about the fact that the UK is you would expect them to have some kind of parity with naval stuff. But no, not there either. Nuclear submarines. Russia's got 33. The UK's got 11 regular submarines. Other submarines, 17 additional submarines by Russia. Zero by the UK.
Starting point is 00:53:23 They only got 11 nuclear subs no other subs paramilitary personnel 449 000 in russia zero in the uk uh again all this talk about nato nato was nothing except the u.s um you know going up against russia and the people running nato still want to do that and look nato has been very dangerous you go back to operation gladio you know the uh nato people that were there and lyman limnitzer who tried to push the Cuban advantage, push for Operation Northwoods, which is an early version of 9-11, a false flag attack to get us drug into a war with Cuba. JFK fired him. He was head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. So he goes to Europe.
Starting point is 00:54:21 He runs NATO. And he runs Operation Gladio, another false flag attack. They did terrorist attacks saying that it was communist provocateurs, but it was NATO. Using stores of arms that they had set up in NATO, just in case they were overrun in a lightning invasion by Russia or whatever, but it was actually NATO that was shooting and killing people. They kidnapped the Italian Prime Minister, Aldo Moro. Henry Kissinger sent Alex Jones's big pal, Steve Pchenik, over to negotiate. Pchenik, according to an Italian investigation, ordered that Aldo Moro be executed, the Prime Minister, because he figured out what was happening. That's NATO. NATO in a nutshell.
Starting point is 00:55:07 And it is a nutshell. You look at, I mean, what Kubrick should have done for Dr. Strangelove, instead of having a crazy general who was whacked out over the fact that they're putting fluoride in our water, and he was actually right about that, he should have had NATO start this.
Starting point is 00:55:29 Somebody like General Limitzer started this thing. That would have been more accurate. Starting World War III, that's what these people want to do. I mean, they've all become real-life Jack D. Ripper and imagining threats where there are none. Of course, Jack D. Ripper was wise imagining threats where there are none. Of course, Jack D. Ripper was wise enough to know that fluoride was a threat to our bodily fluids and our intellect as well. Mike Lee, Senator Mike Lee, is calling for exit from NATO after a Norwegian fuel company stops refueling U.S. military ships. Isn't this interesting, you know, how petty this all gets?
Starting point is 00:56:04 It's like a lot of schoolyard taunts and everything, just like you saw in the Oval Office. That's how they start these big, big wars where millions of people die. It's over petty squabbles like that, isn't it? Mike Lee called for the U.S. to have NATO in response, to leave NATO in response to a Norwegian fuel company, deciding to stop refueling u.s military ships lee wrote on x he said europe does not love us let's leave nato he said they've stripped uh refueling the u.s navy ships in a statement issued by the company haltbach bunkers uh this norwegian company said they would quote no longer supply american military ships in Norway or those docking in Norwegian ports, adding that the U.S. was, quote, excluded based on their behavior toward Ukraine.
Starting point is 00:56:56 The company also wrote no fuel to Americans and encouraged other countries to follow suit. Well, again, you know, one of the things that we look at the trade imbalance with Europe, that they really want to escalate this tariff war. I mean, they're making, they've got a real advantage with the U.S. We buy a lot more from them than they buy from us. And what really has them concerned is that President Musk weighed in on this. Strikes fear into Europe after agreeing that the U.S. should leave both NATO and the U.N. I 100% agree. I don't care what their motivations are.
Starting point is 00:57:40 I hope that happens. But, of course, the next administration can put us right back in but it'd be nice to be out for a little bit uh musk has sparked fear in the heart of european establishment after he spoke out in support of the u.s leaving both the un and nato thomas massey joined in the call of course always now thomas massey is always on the right side call nato a cold war relic that needs to be relegated to a talking kiosk at the smithsonian uh mike lee also said something similar to that he said um uh he's called the organization a cold war relic himself and argued that it offers a great deal for europe but a raw deal for America.
Starting point is 00:58:29 Well, when we come back, we're going to talk about some of the other things that happened over the weekend that didn't get as much attention, but are going to have probably a more immediate effect on our life. The Bitcoin Reserve, and yet it's not a Bitcoin Reserve. He's talking about doing a lot of different crypto things here, and I see it as a pump and dump. So we'll talk about that when we come back. Some of the comments before we take a break. Atomic Dog says, yes, David, I watched the full video and I thought Trump was going to stand up and square off with a little dictator.
Starting point is 00:58:56 First time I've seen Trump show his anger. He actually shoved him, put his hand on him and shoved him. And somebody got a good angle angle i didn't put it in the deck here somebody got a good angle from the side and you can you can see it better than you can when you look straight on you can see when it looks straight on it looks like you put his hand on him but when you look at it from the side you see zelinski move with a little dictator when he got shoved um one arm steve 420 says hello all i'm strongly on the side of russia in this conflict we started it with nato and the eu russia should take what they want and let the rest become sovereign
Starting point is 00:59:31 quote-unquote ukraine again yeah that's always been the thing ukraine was a part of russia for so long uh that you know i when i first started talking about this, I called it the Ukraine. It was a region of Russia. And I don't know why anybody in Ukraine would want to be a part of Russia after Stalin. And the hollow demur that he put on, you know, I talked about that in terms of our government trying to shut down our food supply. But they always do that. You know, I mean, it's a sure sign of an authoritarian government when they do things to destroy your food supply deliberately. Stalin did it to the Ukraine, the breadbasket. He created starvation in the breadbasket. Mao did it in China with his great leap forward.
Starting point is 01:00:19 And now we've got the USDA doing it to us here at home. But, you know, whatever. I mean, they they got long ties to the area and i thought it was funny when the whole thing began you had the british defense minister said well we beat russia and crimea once before we'll beat them there again it's like oh so you do have some understanding that crimea was part of russia during the crimean war uh you were not fighting with or against ukrainians you were fighting against russia he knows at least that much history even though he's lying to you about everything else is going
Starting point is 01:00:50 on dg8 so david it's um our fault zolinski looked like a bum visiting the white house we should have bought him a mcguffin t-shirt a sweatshirt uh would fetterman wear a mcguffin t-shirt who knows i mean He was in such bad shape when he was running. His head is clarified now. You've got some people on the right cheering him because now he can communicate and it's pretty clear he's
Starting point is 01:01:15 part of the uni party. He's got a chance that he can run for higher office because he's fully on board for Israel. That's a prerequisite to tick the boxes there, I guess. Guard Goldsmith. Hey, good to see you, Guard. Liberty Conspiracy, and you can hear Guard every weeknight on X as well as on Rockfin.
Starting point is 01:01:36 He said, did you hear that Zelensky met with Chris Murphy prior to meeting with Trump? I didn't hear that. And that Senator Murphy told him to sabotage the meeting. I didn't hear that. And that Senator Murphy told him to sabotage the meeting. I didn't hear that either. Interesting, especially since Murphy is so closely tied to the coup in Ukraine and the work with the Nazis there. I have to look further into it, says Gard, but it's very interesting to see how it seems to have been set up
Starting point is 01:02:00 to push for the Europeans to back Zelensky. Yeah, I mean, mean you know when you look at this i would say that if something was premeditated along those lines uh it would be up to zelinski to push that you know trump was really uh kind of laying back there until uh you know and zelinski just kept on going right? So if anybody instigated something in a premeditated way, I would think that it would be Zelensky. Angry Tiger says, actually, David, there's a huge stir up in the community right now because Bitcoin wasn't listed in the crypto. People are going wild over it.
Starting point is 01:02:43 I think he did a follow-up. We're going to talk about that. He did a follow-up and mentioned, of course bitcoin and ethereum would be the heart of it but when he put out his initial post it was ripple and it was two i don't follow crypto and it was two other crypto things that i'd never even heard of i still don't know what they are because i didn't bother to look them up um they're all uh're all pump and dump scams as far as I'm concerned. And so we're going to talk about that very thing when we come back. But I was really surprised.
Starting point is 01:03:12 I thought when he was talking about this stuff that he was going to do a reserve based on Bitcoin. And you could kind of understand that Ethereum would be thrown in there because it's kind of become a foundation for a lot of this other crypto stuff. They're piggybacked off of it. And, you know, for example, like on Rockfin, for example, the tips that go into Rockfin get put into their particular cryptocurrency. Don't ask me why. Yeah, I don't trust that.
Starting point is 01:03:44 So now, you know, your tips come in in dollars and then I can't get me why. Yeah, I don't trust that. So now, you know, your tips come in in dollars, and then I can't get them out unless I convert that crypto to Ethereum and then convert the Ethereum to dollars. It's like, you know, it's just all of this crypto stuff. It's just a scam. But that was not one of the currencies that he mentioned, but he's got a couple of others. So we're going to take a quick break and we will be right back. Stay with us. Succes! Thank you. Making sense common again. You're listening to The David Knight Show. You know, as I'm watching that bumper there,
Starting point is 01:05:57 scenes from the last of the Mohicans and the French and Indian War, where the French and Indians were not fighting each other. They were both fighting us. We were British at the time. And so I'm looking at that as we're talking about war. And I'm reminded of the comment from the Confederate soldier when the Union soldier says, he says, Sesh, why are you fighting?
Starting point is 01:06:20 And he says, because you're here. And I think that that is, when we look at a just war, what is it that justifies a war? Well, it's when you are invaded. What is your purpose in the war? Well, your purpose, besides winning, your purpose is to try to end the conflict. So your purpose is to try to reestablish peace and to try to avoid civilian casualties. We don't have those anymore, and we have preemptive wars. We go to war because of geopolitical strategies, not because we've been attacked, not because we've been invaded. And when you look at the people that are there in Ukraine, they say, well, we have a right to fight because we've been invaded by Russia. Yes, you do. The problem, though, is that if we go to the next fourth turning war,
Starting point is 01:07:09 which was the Civil War. Of course, that wasn't the Revolutionary War. That was the French and Indian War. But if we go to the Civil War, the South fought when they were invaded, but you had Robert E. Lee when he realized that it was not possible to win against the odds that were there right they're insurmountable odds they had unlimited resources you know the south fighting the north was kind of like ukraine fighting russia it just wasn't going to happen unless they got an
Starting point is 01:07:36 early victory it wasn't going to happen and after gettysburg it was clear it wasn't going to happen they had hoped that britain would come in on their side for additional resources like France had. And so the choice that Robert Lee had was he could continue to fight to the very last Confederate soldier, as the people who are running this proxy war want them to fight the very last Ukrainian. Or he could offer peace. And he did the right thing. Many people said, no, we should just keep this going as a guerrilla warfare. But he went for peace. There comes a point in time when a war becomes unjust if there's no possibility of winning it. So if somebody attacks you, you have a right of self-defense. But you need to make sure that you are not the aggressor. We have been the aggressor in all the wars since World War II. And you need to seek to end the fighting. You need to
Starting point is 01:08:34 wear uniforms and other things like that so that you avoid civilian casualties. Now we do massive bombing campaigns on civilians. And of course, Ukraine did that as well to their own people. So the way the wars are fought today, I can't support them. There's absolutely nothing just in them. And of course, part of that is to, and I've said this many times about what is going on in Israel, October 7th doesn't excuse what is happening and has been happening for years. At some point, you got to stop, you know, the targeting of civilians right there, wrong. But at some point, you got to stop because all you're doing, you got no opportunity to win your objective of getting the Hamas terrorists, for example. And I know there's a lot of people believe that it was
Starting point is 01:09:23 a false flag and all the rest of the stuff. i'm just talking about from the broad principles here not the details uh even if the narrative is as put out there i would say that they are not justified to continue this fight because they're not capable of achieving that objective they're just slaughtering people at this point so same thing is true in ukraine let's talk about the bitcoin reserve stuff as angry tiger said it was really odd that when trump put out his first post he didn't mention bitcoin he didn't mention ethereum mention Ethereum. He mentioned XRP, which is Ripple, SOL, which is Solana, and Cardano's ADA. That's his symbol, ADA, as part of the Crypto Strategic Reserve. I looked at this, and like I said, I don't know what Solana is. I don't know what Cardano ADA is. I know that XRP is Ripple.
Starting point is 01:10:24 I know that they, a few years ago, I had seen some stuff about them because they were trying to set up their cryptocurrency to do what Bitcoin's initial mission was. And that was not to be an asset that was held, but it was to be a medium of exchange. And when you look at what Trump is doing with Bitcoin Reserve, that's exactly what Roger Ver was talking about in the book that he co-wrote with another person, the fact that Bitcoin had been hijacked. Bitcoin was meant to be an honest medium of exchange that wouldn't be manipulated by the system. And yet now it become a an asset that people gamble with and i say gamble because of its volatility so the president later added bitcoin and ether ethereum i think is what
Starting point is 01:11:15 it is but they say ether uh and he said it would be the heart of the reserve You know, when you look at this, there was a Peter Schiff tweeted about that. He said, I get the rationale for a Bitcoin reserve. I don't agree with it, but I get it. He said, we have a gold reserve and Bitcoin is supposed to be digital gold, which is better than analog gold, they say. So let's create a Bitcoin reserve, too. But what's the rationale for XRP being in the reserve? And he says, why would we need that? Why would we need these even more so? Why would we need these other two?
Starting point is 01:12:03 But again, Trump says, it's the heart of the reserve. And so then he comes back and he says, well, I love Bitcoin and Ethereum. Crypto is spiking as Trump discusses strategic reserve ahead of the White House summit. And apparently, according to Zero Hedge, somebody was pretty confident about that occurring. They said somebody went 50 times long on Ethereum and Bitcoin with $200 million. $200 million bet. Does anybody know what Nancy Pelosi did this weekend? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:12:36 This is either a very rich degenerate or a market maker that's about to move the market in a meaningful way on the spot side. Or, they said, simply put, this looks like an insider March 7th confirmation of a U.S. strategic Bitcoin reserve is locked. Somebody's got some inside information, so they're putting a $200 million bet on this. Knowing that it's not going to devolve into a shouting match like the Zelensky-Trump thing. So, going to move forward on a crypto strategic reserve that includes, said Trump, XRP, SOL, and ADL. I will make sure the U.S. is the crypto capital of the world.
Starting point is 01:13:31 And so again, later on, he mentioned that Bitcoin and Ethereum would be the heart of the reserve. So I wonder how many of these things are going to be in there. Will the Melania coin be in there as well? Trump? How about the Libra coin that is the basis for some people trying to impeach Javier Malai down in Argentina? Will that be in there as well? people trying to impeach Javier Malai down in Argentina. Will that be in there as well? Trump has announced a crypto strategic reserve consisting of Bitcoin and other top cryptocurrencies. This is consistent with his first week executive order, writes David Sachs, who's also in on this. He's part of some of the crypto bros.
Starting point is 01:14:02 Trump is keeping his promise to make U.S. the crypto capital of the world. More to come at the summit, which will be on the 7th. Four days from now. What is that, Friday, I guess? Yeah. So Trump will host the first White House crypto summit on March 7th,
Starting point is 01:14:20 bringing together industry leaders to discuss regulatory policies, stable coin oversight, and the potential role of Bitcoin in the U.S. financial system. You see, it's interesting to see how Trump and Biden pursue the same end with different means, isn't it? So the Biden Democrat approach is in March of 2022 to say, well, we're going to I want everybody in all of government, the entire executive branch. I want you to report back to me in six months for different areas. How are you going to read a completely restructure the financial system?
Starting point is 01:14:58 That was number one. Number two was we're going to write the code. Number three, how are we going to use law enforcement to coerce people into doing this and then number four was and let's use the excuse of climate change so give me excuses about climate change because we got to say that bitcoin and proof of work uses too much energy well that all went out the door with ai right nobody cares about that anymore. Now, you know, there's no concern at all about energy usage as long as it's for spying on us and lying to us, which is what AI is about. So that's the, that's the Biden approach. You know, let's just buy Fiat. We're going to completely restructure. We're going to have law enforcement get in and rubber hose people to death, you know, with this
Starting point is 01:15:42 stuff. And, uh, and we're going to concoct a lie on how to do it. And then, of course, the fourth one was he had to have somebody actually write the code. Now, the approach that Trump is going to take is let somebody else write the code in a private company, right? Not going to have the government do it. We'll do it all through corporations. And we'll do it all through a summit in the White House that you're not a part of that. You're not invited. Your elected representatives won't have a say in it.
Starting point is 01:16:09 This will be something that Trump does with the corporations and the CEOs and the technocrats that are out there. They're going to put this thing through. And then they're going to persuade you to do it. They will offer some incentives like Mike DeWine offered a possible you might win a million dollars if you take do it. They will offer some incentives, like Mike DeWine offered a possible, you might win a million dollars if you take the vaccine. Of course, you might also die or have your body destroyed, but you could win a million dollars. And so that'll be the Republican approach, is to do it through the private industry, do it through enticement, seduction, persuasion, coercion, as opposed to do it or else, which is the Democrat way.
Starting point is 01:16:50 And quite frankly, I think that the Democrats are far less dangerous. Because when someone comes up to you, points a gun in your face, and starts to, you understand what they're about. When the Republicans come in and portray it as just a free market operating. Yeah, these guys are making this stuff all free to themselves. They're helping themselves to a free stash that is there. So this is going to be March 7th. Lutnik and pals will be there.
Starting point is 01:17:23 And lucky Lutnik who somehow missed all of that 9-11 stuff, you know. He and his pals are going to be at this meeting. They're going to be working out how they're going to collapse the economy, like the Twin Towers and Building 7. It'll be an inside job, folks. While the cryptocurrency industry has cheered news of a national stockpile, some economists have raised concerns about the proposal. They point to cryptocurrency's volatility, arguing the government is purchasing cryptocurrency as a gamble,
Starting point is 01:17:56 and it would primarily benefit existing crypto holders. That's how lucky Lutnik makes his money and most of these guys around Trump. They get in there first, and then they pump it up, up and then they dump it and they leave you holding the bag. I think it's something like I forget how many billions of dollars people who bought Melania coin lost. They fleeced them for billions. You know, you go back and you look at the Stop the Steal garbage that he was doing. And the Save America, Stop the Steal was Alex Jones ripping people off and luring them into a dangerous situation. And Save America was Trump doing the same thing.
Starting point is 01:18:36 And he only fleeced them for about $250 million. Just with the Melania coin, they've ripped people off for billions it's lost over 90 percent of its value right away but the people who put it together just as lutnik has done time and time again trump's commerce second they make all their money up front mark zandy the chief economist at moody's analytics said i get why the crypto investors would love it. But other than the crypto investor, I don't see the value, particularly if taxpayers have to ante up. Well, think about this.
Starting point is 01:19:14 If Trump is able to completely bankrupt the United States. And again, I don't know. We'll talk about this Fort Knox thing. That whole thing is another one of these. We laugh about it. It's like, yeah, I'd't know. We'll talk about this Fort Knox thing. That, that whole thing is another one of these, you know, we laugh about it. It's like, yeah, I'd love to see that. But of course there's nothing that's real. That's going to come out of that. The Fort Knox thing is going to be another Epstein files, another JFK files, another nine 11 files. It's all hype and a nothing burger, right? It's just a, just misdirection in theater. But the question is,
Starting point is 01:19:47 what's the purpose of it? Yeah, he's playing to his audience like he does with the Epstein files and all the rest of this stuff. But I think that I'm not exactly sure how they're going to use this. But I think that they're going to use this fort knox thing to undermine people's confidence and institutions and the dollar things like that to try to move them to some new financial system because the whole purpose of everything that trump and musk are doing even though i agree with uh some of the things that they're doing and theory if they are doing them. And again, I don't know if it's real or not. But if you're going to cut down government, you need to just shut these things down and say government should not have any role here.
Starting point is 01:20:33 And you've got to also shut down the other programs that are there, not just the bureaucracy, but you need to rethink the purpose of government and go back to a more foundational level, which they're not doing. I think they want to, again, get rid of the people that are in the government and replace them with artificial intelligence. And that's going to be a much worse system.
Starting point is 01:20:54 Far more intrusive, far more controlling. So I'm very concerned about what's coming and how they're going to use this. And I feel the same way about this Fort Knox thing. I know that Musk and Trump and all the crypto boys want to put us into a crypto system that may be a part of it. One cryptocurrency that Trump's Sunday announcement did not name is Tether, which is pegged to the U.S. dollar, which is also pegged to Lucky Lutnik. Although he claims that he has divested himself from it. You know how that goes. It is notable because Trump's Commerce Secretary, Howard Lutnik, has ties to Tether, with public
Starting point is 01:21:35 reporting suggesting that Cantor Fitzgerald, which Lutner has long led, going back to even well before 9-11, helps to oversee the cryptocurrency's portfolio and recently struck a deal that could result in canter fitzgerald getting a five percent ownership stake in tether lutnik has resigned from canter fitzgerald and said that he will divest from it as a result of his government role but democrats have criticized his company's involvement with tether and of course we know how that's going to work out one cryptocurrency um uh again that he didn't talk about is um is is tether but when you look at these other ones the bigger picture i think is from free thought project matt agorist and i like his headline headline. Banning CBDCs is a Trojan horse.
Starting point is 01:22:26 Private coins, he says, are the only way forward. Well, I disagree with that. I do believe that banning CBDCs is a Trojan horse. And I've said that from the very beginning as well. He said, while Trump's recent executive order banned the creation of a U.S. CBDC, the forces pushing for global financial surveillance are far from retreating. Instead, what they're doing is they're relabeling and rebranding and all that. That's what he's saying. I've been saying this from the very beginning.
Starting point is 01:22:55 I said this before the election. I said this when he started talking about having a Bitcoin reserve. I could see the contours lining there. And then when you look at his cabinet, it validated everything about that. In other words, I looked at it, it's like, well, I think this is what he's going to do. And I said it then. I said, I think they're going to come up with a public-private partnership form of CBDC. So it'd be a PPPDC, a public-private partnership digital coin, rather than a central bank digital coin.
Starting point is 01:23:28 And then when you look at the people that he brought into the administration, personnel, or policy, it's like, yep, that's what it's going to be. Absolutely going to be that. It's going to be a PPPDC digital currency. And so going back to Matagoras, he says entities like the World Economic Forum, the Atlantic Council have embraced stable coins. And again, that's Lutnik, king of the stable coins. If you think banning a CBDC was enough to stop the financial surveillance grid from forming, think again. The powers that be are simply rebranding their takeover of digital finance. And the only real defense is
Starting point is 01:24:05 decentralized private money 100 agree and i've been saying that for a long time as well but then he goes into a different direction than i would agree with he said that's why privacy coins like xano are more important than ever i've never heard of it Doesn't mean that it's not good. I'm just not interested in these digital games. How about gold? He doesn't even mention gold, which I think is kind of funny. So, yeah, you want privacy? You want private money? You want decentralized money?
Starting point is 01:24:38 How about gold? See, the founders understood that. The founders understood the difference between some kind of a printed paper system, money being issued by the government. The government is not supposed to issue money. Money is supposed to be outside of the government. The government had the power to coin some of that money, but they're not setting the value of it in the Constitution. That's not what it was for. So he lists some points about Zano.
Starting point is 01:25:07 Says it's the answer to financial tyranny well let's take a look at the the things here it says number one privacy first no more public ledgers okay well that's fine okay it's a private coin and you know i don't know maybe zano is like monero maybe it's a spinoff of that pirate coin is. Maybe it's a spinoff of that. Pirate Coin is another one that's a spinoff of that. I've interviewed the guys at Pirate Coin a couple of times. But privacy first, no more public ledgers. Well, gold checks that. I mean, you've got to, at some point in time, get into gold. At some point in time, got to you know get from a public bank account or
Starting point is 01:25:46 something into xano but you know after that it's uh private uh but you know gold checks that as well uh decentralized tokenization with privacy well i think gold uh fits that as well it's not tokenized i'm not a big fan of tokenization at all uh and so you know gold however is decentralized and private unfortunately it's not tokenized uh and then you have number three he says hybrid proof of work and proof of stake it's impossible to attack it he says so um i think it's interesting that when you talk about proof of stake versus proof of work or again that's what you know the attack on uh bitcoin in biden's war plan was going to be attack it because it was you had to do work and if you do
Starting point is 01:26:42 work if you have computers that are out there doing processing transactions and mining, that's going to use energy and that's going to burn the environment down. Right. Because they don't have any problem. And I said it at the time. They don't have any problem when the CIA does it, when they have these massive data centers out in the middle of the desert using up all the water, enough water for a city in the middle of the desert in Utah. What's going on with that? And the amount of power, enough power for a city in the middle of the desert in Utah. I was like, what's going on with that? And the amount of power, enough power for a city. And those things had been around for a long time.
Starting point is 01:27:11 But they never would focus on that. That was a hypocrisy. And then it became a real glaring hypocrisy with the AI data centers. So that's proof of work. So what they proposed with CBDC was we're going to do proof of stake. I'm a stakeholder. So it's worth whatever I say it's worth. You know, you're back to fiat and declarations, right?
Starting point is 01:27:31 Interesting that the abbreviation for proof of stake is POS, which happens to be a pejorative term for people who put this kind of stuff together. Politicians are POS. Lutnik and Besnick and trump all pos so the same people who are fighting to outlaw privacy coins are the same ones going after people like roger vere he says and i agree a man whose crime was to dare to promote financial freedom but again there's going to be financial freedom as long as it's digital? I think it has to be analog.
Starting point is 01:28:10 If you want real financial privacy, and very important to have that, I think it has to be analog. We're going to talk to Catherine Austin Fitz, not today, but tomorrow. We've got her coming on to talk about this because she's got a lot to say about this. Head on before we're going to talk about it some more tomorrow. The European Digital Identity Wallet is coming soon. This is from Off Guardian in the UK. Well, yeah, in Europe they're going to do that. But, of course, Musk has already proposed that globally, certainly for the U.S.
Starting point is 01:28:46 He's got a digital wallet and all the stuff that is said about what is happening with the eu and the european digital wallet it's all being done by the baphomet billionaire elon musk here the elite are already running large-scale pilot schemes they're not being subtle about this they are not hiding it at all the plan is a single government issued app that holds your medical records your employment records your travel records your education records your vaccination records your tax records your financial records as well as potentially copies of your signature fingerprints facial scans voice samples and your dna and this is all laid out I've played this several times I'm gonna play it again for you today but remember the video Ukraine 2030 and they put it out shortly after you
Starting point is 01:29:33 know the 2022 invasion by Russia and they said well 2030 we will have won the war and we will set up this digital system and look it's going to be so easy. All your interaction with the government, it's just going to be with this app, you know, to go to the DMV or to do this or to pay your taxes. This is like, you know, all of these are things that I don't even really want to do. And so now you're promising that you're going to make it a little bit easier for me by making it all digital so that you can have even more control
Starting point is 01:30:01 and more governance over me. You're going to extend your governance over me. And so that has been the European NATO American view. That's why they put that out, that Ukraine 2030. Let's show the world how we're going to do this. And so Elon Musk is trying to set the same thing up on X. And, of course, Zuckerberg's got his version of it. We've got a whole bunch of people that are working on their own separate versions.
Starting point is 01:30:30 And they can all exist concurrently, just like you've got MasterCard and Visa or whatever. And, of course, Musk has already made an agreement with Visa. MasterCard is making agreements with governments and with other entities that are out there. So all of these corporations, all of these tech billionaires are working together to create their own PPPDC, public-private partnership, digital currency. So as he starts talking about this, he says none of this is hypothetical. He says just one of the pilot schemes is, quote, building prototypes and testing use cases for the European Digital Identity Wallet. And there are three others, at least. He says this is dating back to the birth of COVID, the EUID wallet being touted since 2021. He said a couple of days ago, he says,
Starting point is 01:31:29 this was brought again to my attention when I stumbled on the article, why would you need an EU wallet? And he said, this guy is an apparatchik, you know, who has gone out there pushing this, just like you got people, you know, why do you need a measles vaccine? Well, we're going to make a case for it, right? And so they're already starting with all the puff pieces here about how it's going to simplify your life and improve everything for you. A fairly good example, the kind of thing that you can expect to see more widely in a bigger mainstream outlets as we get closer and closer to the full-scale implementation of the European Union's ID. It talks up the costs of fraud and how digital ID schemes will make everything so much safer
Starting point is 01:32:09 and so much more efficient, but it bemoans the lack of harmonization across borders and systems, all standard stuff. So we're going to have to, we'll create all these independent systems, but eventually like Highlander, there can only be one, right? So you got to, you got to merge all these things. There'll be one ring to rule them all. They may let some of the Nazgul have a piece of the action for a while, but eventually it's going to be one ring to rule them all.
Starting point is 01:32:35 Now, when we get back to Bitcoin and the National Reserve, the Swiss National Bank president doesn't think that's a good idea. He said that it's too volatile. It lacks sufficient liquidity to be a reserve asset. The reason he's speaking out on this is because they have set up a, in Switzerland, they have proposed a referendum. They're gathering signatures for this to make bitcoin a reserve and so the president of the swiss national bank doesn't like that idea again he says a lack of stability
Starting point is 01:33:13 and a lack of liquidity as well as security risks he says cryptocurrencies are too volatile yes he said our reserves need to be highly liquid as well so they can be used quickly for monetary policy purposes if needed i think that volatility is what he's talking about in conjunction with liquidity right if it's jumping up and down five or ten percent it's like oh should i wait and buy it or sell it or whatever you know he said and we all know the software can have bugs and other weak points. Last time I talked to Catherine Austin Fitch, she was talking about that. She said, already people made the case that there's some bugs that have been exploited in Bitcoin that allow it to leak.
Starting point is 01:33:58 When you talk about, let's put everything into the digital realm, Have we seen anything that is secure there? I mean, they have hacked into the Pentagon. They have hacked into the CIA, and they stole and published the CIA's hacking tools. How's that? They went into the burglar's office and stole the burglar's tools. Where the CIA, Vault 7, where the CIA can break into their manual, and even the software code was released. The manual showing how they can hack and how they can pretend
Starting point is 01:34:33 to be anybody that they want to. So the NSA, CIA can pretend to be Russia or China or anybody, right? And now everybody's got those tools. Well, we've had the U.S. government has been broken into, the military has been broken into, our spies have been broken into, the Federal Reserve has been broken into, corporations have been broken into. There isn't anything that's secure when it's on the internet. Don't listen to them when they tell you that it's secure because it's blockchain. And of course musk wants blockchain to be the best basis of our government
Starting point is 01:35:05 blockchain and ai i tell you if that happens it's going to be literal chains literal chains on all of us the swiss central bank president added that he doesn't see bitcoin or crypto potentially dethroning the swiss franc either said, we're not afraid of competition from cryptocurrencies. So this was set in motion by the Swiss Federal Chancellery. They have a referendum about it. They'll need to have 100,000 signatures, but they have until June of 2026. So they got a year and a half to get 100,000 signatures to put it on the ballot. And then there'll be a referendum as to whether or not they want to go digital on their reserves. Despite the bank president's criticism, Switzerland is one of the leading countries for Bitcoin adoption, particularly in the city of Lugano, where the annual Plan Bitcoin conference is held.
Starting point is 01:36:05 A Bitcoin reserve is currently being considered in the U.S. and the Czech Republic and in Hong Kong, while El Salvador continues to stack at least one Bitcoin to its treasury, which was launched in September of 2021. And again, as I said, Musk wants to run the government off a blockchain. That will make it so much more efficient, so much more secure uh so the gold in fort knox as mizes says you know what is this really about because it doesn't back
Starting point is 01:36:34 the dollar it doesn't back anything else either uh so mizes says i'm all in favor of thorough and public audit of the u.s gold reserves including the gold not only at Fort Knox, but also at the other gold storage facilities at West Point, Denver, and the New York Federal Reserve Bank. Now, isn't that interesting? Here's the dog that didn't bark. When Musk and Trump talk about auditing the gold, do they talk about West Point, Denver, New York Fed? No, they talk about Fort Knox. Why? york fed no they talk about fort knox why because this is just a dog and pony show for the feeble-minded for for their followers right oh they'll understand that there's gold at fort knox or at least they're supposed to be and so you know they can use that
Starting point is 01:37:21 for whatever their purposes are going to be but if they really want to do a gold audit if if they really want to audit the Federal Reserve, right, there's other things that they'd be doing. But they're going to focus on this. That is the tell right there to let you know that this is all just a show. And then the question we can all speculate as to what their purpose is with this. Mises says, virtually everything the U.S. government owns is stolen. Yep, yep. Whether it's stolen from Americans
Starting point is 01:37:50 or whether it's stolen from foreign individuals and from foreign institutions. Says, we already know the Fed makes secret loans and obstinately refuses to make public. So an audit is very much in order. All that said, however, let's not overstate the importance of the U.S. Gold Reserve. The Gold Reserve is not a source of untapped wealth that can be used to balance the budget,
Starting point is 01:38:12 to pay off the federal debt, or to fix the U.S.'s current downward spiral into fiscal insolvency. At only $750 billion, in other words, if they've got it all that they claim to have, it'd only be $750 billion, and we words, if they've got it all that they claim to have, it'd only be $750 billion. And we're $35 trillion in debt. Now, when Tony Arterman talks about this, when we talk about it, we've said many times, what that illustrates is our detachment from reality. And that's the key thing to take away from this so he says the the gold
Starting point is 01:38:46 reserve is too small to uh to to bring us into fiscal solvency but it is a leverage point because as i pointed out last week i think it's on friday that i talked about this sovereign wealth fund and the fact that we got doug bergham who is now you know interior secretary and in charge of the public lands that have also been stolen from the american people that they don't have any congressional or constitutional authority to own and so when you look at that and doug bergham says these are our assets and scott besant saying yeah we're going to put these assets to work meaning we're going to make money from these assets they're going to make money from the public lands by liquidating them to the highest bidder, perhaps.
Starting point is 01:39:29 Who knows what they're going to do? It'll be more than just the contracts because they're selling the contracts now. And like I said before, on public land, you can have multiple uses. It can be a public park. It can also have logging resources. It can have mineral resources, mining rights. It can have grazing and water rights, and all these other things can be there. So they're not interested in that.
Starting point is 01:39:51 There's something far deeper about this. And when we look at the fact that we've only got $750 billion in gold, but we've got $35 trillion in debt, they said, well, yeah, but we've got $200 trillion worth of public lands that we could sell off. That's where I think this is going. And I think that's the purpose of the Fort Knox audit. It's to show, to get people to not trust the institutions, perhaps, or to show that it's not big enough to cover the, I don't know exactly how they're going to operate,
Starting point is 01:40:21 but I think it's going to play a part in chaos. I think it's going to play a part in further eroding people's confidence in the institutions, which is a hallmark of every fourth turning. It's a fourth turning where everything gets changed. Why? Because people are fed up with the institutions. They can see how they don't work. And boy, this is a big, big, big reveal and discredit and chaos being done by elon musk and trump
Starting point is 01:40:46 they're going to be accelerating this trend of distrust of the institutions they're pulling back the curtain and showing everybody the the mess that's in there and i think that fort knox will be part of that be a part of hey look you know this is a rat's nest in here so um and i guess you know when you think about it, you can think about the Federal Reserve fiat currency as perhaps that was the original derivative. You know, it was, yeah, we're going to base it on gold or whatever, right?
Starting point is 01:41:20 These are paper notes that we have been redeemable and go, well, not anymore. We're not going to redeem it in gold and everything. But it's very similar in a lot of respects to paper gold and paper silver that you see out of the Shanghai Gold Exchange. You can't actually redeem that. What you're doing is you're buying shares in the fund that's called GLD or the other one's called SLV. You're buying shares of those. You're not buying shares of gold or silver.
Starting point is 01:41:48 Now, they promise that they are buying gold and silver and that they hold some of it, but there's no one-to-one correlation. That's why they don't move together, why the spot price of gold and silver move independent of the ETFs like gold and silver, what we call paper gold and silver well you know that's um a long tradition that has been around since the federal reserve you know first beginning to tell everybody oh yeah look it's backed by gold and silver and then it's like well not really and now it's like oh we don't even care we're just trading the the symbols that are
Starting point is 01:42:23 out there and i guess we're all ready for the crypto symbols that are coming at us. The gold reserve does not provide backing for the U.S. dollar, for U.S. treasuries, or for any other asset that one might possess. The value of the U.S. dollar is determined by supply and demand as it floats freely against other unbacked currencies. The gold in the vaults is of little importance in this respect. Strangely, however, as the calls for a gold audit have heated up within the Trump administration, one encounters an increasing number of columns and comments inflating the importance of the gold reserve. Not surprisingly, much of this commentary comes from organizations that promote gold as an investment asset or gold mining as an industry. It says, let's say that 25% of the gold reserve has been stolen.
Starting point is 01:43:07 That would mean that the value of the gold in the reserves is about $567 billion instead of $757 billion. The U.S. economy totals $30 trillion. If the federal gold hoard dropped 25%, the U.S. gold reserve would drop from being the size of 2.5% of the U.S. economy to 1.9% of the U.S. gold reserve would drop from being the size of 2.5% of the U.S. economy to 1.9% of the economy. But I think that the other issue is that, again, it would further undermine confidence and institutions.
Starting point is 01:43:37 And that is really the purpose of the Trump administration at this point. They're building confidence in themselves, right? Think about it it this con game what trump and musk are doing is building confidence in trump and musk and they're building uh skepticism and distrust of the institutions and i would just say distrust everybody distrust the institutions distrust musk distrust trump and gold we trust right and god we trust uh but all others pay gold to paraphrase the whole thing right um so who knows what they're going to do i know i just want to i'm so sick and tired of these scams scams like lucky lutnik
Starting point is 01:44:24 and scams like trump and his trump coin and his melania coin everything i'm sick to death of these con games i just don't understand people who want to participate in this and who aren't skeptical of this so again i think it's just a pr thing i think this fort knox thing is like the epstein files it's like the jfk files it's like the 911 files we all know that it's rotten to the core and you're not going to get any real information about any of that stuff um you know the gold it may be there it may not uh i can tell you that the information that they hope is going to be released about 911 and about the epstein files and about joke.
Starting point is 01:45:05 I can tell you that information's not there at all. That's been removed maybe by the same people that stole all the gold. Who knows? Don't frag me, bro, says CCP is just the pilot program government they want for the world under their 24-7 full spectrum social credit scoring, VAX, passport, biometric, digital ID surveillance system. Call it Skyn sky net he says yeah i've said for a long time uh that china is the beta test it's the beta test for everything
Starting point is 01:45:32 beta test for depopulation going back to again kissinger who um you know how he opened everything up to china with nixon you know you even had ste Sondheim who did all the Broadway shows and everything. Stephen Sondheim even did a horrible, horrible Broadway, I guess. I can't say. I never heard any of it, never paid attention to it. I just thought, what a horrible idea. Of course, he also wrote the lyrics with Leonard Bernstein for West Side Story. But he did a lot of very inventive things, like a funny thing happened on the way to the forum.
Starting point is 01:46:09 But he also did one about the demon barber's Fleet Street, Sweeney Todd. How do you do a musical number about a barber who slit people's throats and turned them into meat pies you know um and so he along those lines he did he did one about nixon kissinger and they're opening to china so i mean you know yeah i guess uh kind of same vein as sweeney todd but yeah from the very beginning even when they opened it up they knew they were going to use china for slave labor they knew they were going to transfer all of our energy as well as industry to China, which is now well accomplished, and how they were going to use it as a testbed, a beta test site for all of this social credit stuff. Absolutely. KWD 68. A well-placed EMP and your strategic reserve is gone. Digital currency is bad. Okay. Yeah, I agree. Ephesians 6 12 trump crypto reserves making america great again coming from the man that owns physical gold yeah everything around him is gilded isn't it
Starting point is 01:47:15 you know it's either real gold or looks like gold i mean i maybe with his money maybe all that stuff is not just gold paint but he loves and yet he's going to sell you crypto. And just remember that crypto, you know, so many times people are like, well, if it's crypto, it's safe. Private. No, no, no, no, no. No, the crypto only has to do with, like, the processing part of it, right? The identifiers that are there.
Starting point is 01:47:42 But the public ledger is that. It's public. It's public for everybody to see the public ledger for for bitcoin is out there for everybody to see unlike the transactions even that you have through our current financial system with the banks or with other people that you buy stuff from that's not all out there in the open for everybody to see but for crypto it is and if you um know some of the wallets or you can figure it out just in the open for everybody to see but for crypto it is and if you um know some of the wallets or you can figure it out just in the same way that somebody looked at this and said look at that somebody put a 200 million dollar bet on this meeting on friday and yeah it's going to go through
Starting point is 01:48:19 the roof they know that you could see that somebody was buying it. And with a little bit of work, detective work, usually you can find out who those whales are. You figure out who it is because it's all public. Naboo, 2029. Doesn't matter what type of payment system is created, as long as mismanagement and self-interest have no consequences for those in charge. That's right. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:48:41 Angry Tiger. So they're going to use XRP, this Ripple, like they use Swift. XRP is a utility that moves money around. This is all an introduction to CBDC. I think you're absolutely right, and that's important. You know, by including XRP in there,
Starting point is 01:48:58 like I said, the whole purpose of Ripple was to be transactional. And by putting that in, that's a big tell that this is not just about saving Bitcoin as an asset, but they want to include these other currencies in there because they're making their move towards a digital currency, a digital ID, essentially. But go back to Angry Tiger. He says, this is an introduction to CBDC. All the crypto he listed are utility cryptos. Their primary purpose is to move money around. Bitcoin is considered an asset now and not a utility. That's how it was hijacked.
Starting point is 01:49:33 Definitely using these for the introduction of a CBDC. They're trying to normalize it through crypto. I think so, yeah. Like I said from the very beginning, I think they're going to do a private version of it. At the very least, it'll be a private version. Establish it as de facto. And then at some point with a false flag-induced crisis or the next election where you get the totalitarian Democrats who come in, they just stick a gun in your face and say, now you're going to use it. So they'll establish this stuff. They'll make a lot of money doing all that.
Starting point is 01:50:07 And then they'll come in with a false flag crisis, or you'll have some government tyrant will come in and stick a gun in your face and say, you've got to do it. Jason Barker. Good to see you, Jason. Also, Knights of the Storm, along with Angry Tiger. And they're on Rockfin and on X as well. You can see nightsoastorm.com.
Starting point is 01:50:27 They've got a lot of, if you go to their website, they've got a lot of different broadcasts, and each of them have their own independent broadcast as well, Foxhole and Angry Tiger Report. So you can go there and you can see a lot of people that are not what we call influencers, the kind of people that were pushing around that jeffrey epstein nonsense last week you know it's like please don't ever call me i won't be an
Starting point is 01:50:51 influencer i'm too shadow banned to influence anybody but i would never aspire to be an influencer as far as i'm concerned that's like saying you're a propagandist you're trying to nudge people into certain things um jason barker said they love to rob us through taxation they should use pirate coin that's good arg i think of this like arg is a symbol or something for it or something like that uh angela oh fort knox is like heraldo opening the mafia safe i'm sure it'll be broadcast live on all the MAGA channels, right? The MAGA network. Handy. They're using ID.me for our EMS records.
Starting point is 01:51:33 Ooh, plus digital. IDME. I think that was the one that the IRS was trying to push on everybody. And they backed off for a moment because it was too cumbersome to get signed up for it. Plus digital wallet is voluntary for now. You know, like the E-Verify? E-Verify for years was voluntary, and now they made it mandatory in Florida.
Starting point is 01:51:52 DeSantis and the Republicans did, because we got all this immigration problem, and so you need to get permission of the federal government to have a job now. Well, so wait a minute. The federal government's the one that opened up the border. You know, that problem solution. They just throw a lot of discounts at us if we join.
Starting point is 01:52:10 That's the way it works. Good to see you, Andy. Jason Barker replied and said, I had to sign up for the ID.me to access my veterans stuff. See, they gradually bring it in. They bring it in, you know, in the back door, stabbing you in the back, incentivizing things, saying if you're going to deal with the government, you've got to do that. And they already tried doing that with the IRS. High Boost says, David, speaking of show, I saw a fracture in MAGA over the weekend.
Starting point is 01:52:42 Cash, Bondi, and the promises is not happening. No Epstein files, no gold audits, no Greenland. And most importantly, zero arrests. Yeah, I saw that too. I saw people calling for Pam Bondi to be thrown out and other people defending her and all the rest of the stuff. What do they expect? I mean, it's just, yeah, that's why I say,
Starting point is 01:53:01 you know, all of this, people are so excited. It was all PR. It was all hopium. And you got to see what actually happens. How much of this stuff is real? I mean, all of this stuff has been thrown at everybody, you know, one thing after the other. And before you can look at it to see if there's really any substance in what they said just happened. Well, now they throw a new announcement at you.
Starting point is 01:53:22 So they keep it coming. Fast and furious, really. So we're going to take a quick break and we'll be right back. Here's a little song I wrote. You might want to hear it in your pod. You know nothing. And be happy Ain't got no cash, ain't got no car
Starting point is 01:53:53 But 24 booster shots in your arm Owe nothing Be happy You can't even buy s*** in the store because of your low social credit score. Oh, nothing. Be happy. You'll own nothing.
Starting point is 01:54:24 And be happy. Be happy and eat the bugs. you will own nothing. And be happy. Be happy and eat the bugs. They're doing what in the place they named after me? Good thing I have the David Knight Show to keep me informed on the plots of these traitors. Making sense common again. This is the David Knight Show. Well, let's talk a little bit about Trump making English the official language of the U.S.
Starting point is 01:54:53 And I'm all for that. I think that's great. This is something that's been talked about for a very long time. Pat Buchanan, back in even the 90s, was talking about that. I think it is absolutely necessary again when you go back to switzerland uh switzerland has um uh you know it's a very small country but in one part of the country they speak german and all the signs are in german another part they speak italian another part they speak french and everything they have to have a fourth language which they call romance romance or something like that which is the official language of the government. Because if you're going to publish everything, for example,
Starting point is 01:55:31 if English is not the official language of the government, then what are you going to do? Are you going to publish the Constitution in Spanish and in English or any laws in Spanish and in English or any other number of languages? Maybe instead of press one for English and two for Spanish, maybe we can now press three for Chinese and four for Arabic? When does it all end? And this is not going to say that people, that individual businesses
Starting point is 01:56:00 can't do that press one for English and two for Spanish type of stuff. That's up to them where they can put spanish signs up in all the the different stores that was really really heavy in texas um it's one of the things that's interesting here in tennessee all the signs are in english it's almost like i'm back in america again or something i don't know strange in it but i don't know how much longer that's going to last but this doesn't have anything to do with what stores are going to do. It doesn't even prohibit the government from doing the press one for Spanish and press or press one for English and press two for Spanish.
Starting point is 01:56:34 It doesn't prohibit them from doing that, but just says that English is the official language. And so it's got some limited utility, this declaration, this executive order does, but you absolutely have to have it. I mean, look at how bad it is right now. You've got courts that interpret the constitution for us as if it's written in a different language. Like I've said many times, it's written in English. I don't need an interpretation. I can read it for myself. But if we have multiple languages, you know, which one is going to prevail? And there's always going to be some nuance. And that's where all the
Starting point is 01:57:03 disputes come from is in the nuances so trump has signed an executive order make english the official language of the united states and of course he can do that as an executive order because it'll be over the executive branch and um and so i think that's a good thing uh we have so it means that government agencies and organizations that get federal funding can choose whether they want to offer documents and services and languages other than English. So, again, it rescinds a policy that required such bodies to provide language. That law was signed into effect by Bill Clinton in 2000. And so the difference is they can choose to do that if they wish.
Starting point is 01:57:47 But Bill Clinton was requiring them to go bilingual in many respects. So it's a small victory, really. Establishing English as the official language will not only streamline communications, says the order, but also reinforce shared national values and create a more cohesive and efficient society,
Starting point is 01:58:08 says the order. So it is noted in the order that the agencies do not need to change. They don't need to remove. They don't need to stop offering any such assistance that they already provide. So it's still going to be press one for English, two for Spanish, everywhere. And so, like so much of the stuff that Trump is doing, it's just a head fake. You look at it and it's like, oh, great. Except it's not really going to change anything. And when we talk about what is really going to be happening with all this stuff, understand
Starting point is 01:58:38 the real language of government is money. Money. Money talks. And that's what he's working on. he's working on the money language stuff by the way i didn't mention you know gold and silver if you want to get gold and silver i didn't play um i was going to play yukon cornelius i forgot to do that as well uh david knight dot gold is what tony has set up to get you to Wise Wolf Gold. It'd be a really good time to start getting some assets out of this financial system. And again, if you want to get into Bitcoin, he's set up a service, or get out of Bitcoin, take some profits.
Starting point is 01:59:18 He's set up a service to let you transfer to and from Bitcoin to gold without any fees. But you can also accumulate gold on a regular basis. And you can sign up with a club. Nobody else that I know of has done that. But Tony has been very good in terms of innovation, customer service, and I've dealt with him for years. And so, again, davidknight.gold. Take you to Tony Ardaman and Wise Wolf Gold.
Starting point is 01:59:43 And you might want to keep that in mind because we're going to see amazing changes happening. And you're going to see a lot of changes happening with money. And you don't want to get rug pulled on this stuff, on these ETFs, on these tether coins, and all the rest of this stuff. Tony has said he doesn't trust any of these cryptos. He said, Bitcoin.
Starting point is 02:00:02 He said he thinks that's going to be there. Well, you make your own decisions about that. But look, this isn't even about setting up a Bitcoin reserve. They're using that, and they're going to have a lot of stuff in there. That's what we were just talking about. So, again, you've been warned. Nearly 68 million of the country's 340 million residents speak a language other than English, according to the Census Bureau.
Starting point is 02:00:26 Besides Spanish, Chinese, Arabic, others. Press 3 for Chinese, 4 for Arabic. They also said establishing one language could promote discrimination against non-English speakers. Well, guess what? You know what? If you're a non-English speaker, you've already invited discrimination against yourself because you've already shut yourself out of a lot of different opportunities. I know people that my daughter worked with who have lived here in the United States for decades and don't care to learn English.
Starting point is 02:00:55 They work in the kitchen and they're going to keep working in the kitchen because they are equivalent things like, because they have no interest in learning English, which would open up of their opportunities to them. But they live here just in open contempt of our laws, of our culture, of our language, and everything else. It's like, I don't understand why they just don't go back home. Anyway, Trump's slush fund, as Mises talks about it. In his February 3rd executive order,
Starting point is 02:01:24 he directed his minions to begin planning to establish a sovereign wealth fund. This fund would be on the order of two trillion dollars investing in things like manufacturing hubs defense medical research etc says the order well we don't really know they've kind of left that vague and as i said before i think it really is that they start talking about putting their assets to wealth the federal government claims that it owns public lands. Constitution says they would own forts and ports and the District of Columbia, but nothing else. But those are going to be the assets that Scott Besant said he's going to put to work.
Starting point is 02:01:55 This order reflects a new anti-capitalist economic orientation of the Republican Party, though, says Mises. And I agree. Embracing fallacies that government can somehow be made efficient, that tariffs can perform miracles like saving the fiat dollar from destruction, and that selecting the right executive personnel is a substitute for the rule of law. Boy, that really does lay out the position of MAGA, doesn't it? MAGA thinks we don't need the rule of law. Boy, that really does lay out the position of MAGA, doesn't it? MAGA thinks we don't need the rule of law.
Starting point is 02:02:29 We got the right people in office right now. What happens when the wrong people get in? The fact that we can, terrorists are going to save the fiat dollar from destruction. Yeah, that pretty much sums up what they think. Or the idea that government can be made efficient. Last thing in the world I want is efficient government if it's not doing the right thing. And our government is not doing the right thing.
Starting point is 02:02:52 It's doing many things that it has no business doing, and it's doing some truly evil things, and I don't want to make them more efficient at it. I don't want to maximize governance, which is the goal of Musk, and he wants to maximize government because he's going to maximize his profits when he does that. He's going to have the inside track on this stuff. I was just talking to Whistler about, you know, as they keep coming out with these new AIs and the fee structures are just amazing when you look at them. Open AI is the most confiscatory in terms of its fees. And I forget the exact numbers. He
Starting point is 02:03:27 knew all about it. But it was something like you're going to pay $250 a month to have credits. And then those credits were something like 20 times more expensive than DeepSeek. So you pay this big fee, user fees. And the user fees are ridiculously absurd as well. And I told him, I said, well, that's the reason why open AI is taking their dog and pony show to the federal government. Telling everybody this is so dangerous. Skynet is going to kill us all. Only a couple of us who are responsible should have the ability to do this. And you're going to be very worried about those Chinese competitors and so forth.
Starting point is 02:04:06 They take that story to the federal government. The federal government, money is no object. Open AI is not competitive in the marketplace already with the Chinese and many other people. I mean, they were the least competitive of all the people. And their new model is not an impressive improvement either. And so they're inefficient and outrageously expensive, so where else would they go except to the people who will pay $600 for a toilet seat or an AI prompt, which is like a toilet seat. So Republicans have evidently forgotten the eternal truth, eternal economic truth, that planning that is not driven by free markets doesn't work.
Starting point is 02:04:55 It's exactly right. And this was so troubling about all this stuff. It grieves me to see the people that have been brought into the political process as a mob and the mob america again crowd right they've been brought in as a tv watching mob big fans of donald trump they know nothing about economics or history or why we had the form of government that we used to have. They don't value it anymore. They don't value the rule of law or, you know, any decentralization. They don't value any of those principles that America was built upon in the Constitution. They don't value any of that stuff. They're just like the left.
Starting point is 02:05:40 It's a very, very big problem. So central planning, they like the idea of central planning. They like the idea of executive orders. They think they're winning when they get a president who acts like a dictator. As long as he's issuing the dictates that they like, they like that. They don't realize what's been lost in all of that and how that will immediately vanish when they get somebody in there that they don't like. They're more than happy to get rid of the rule of law, just like these people, more than happy to censor there that they don't like. They're more than happy to get rid of the rule of law, just like these people,
Starting point is 02:06:07 more than happy to censor anybody that they don't like. And that's true of both the left and the right now. They're both applauding censorship, just like the tyrants out of the EU. I don't like what you have to say about the nation of Israel, so I'm going to throw you in jail. Or the other people want to do it for you, criticize LGBT or whatever, they'll throw you in jail. They'll take your career, whatever.
Starting point is 02:06:29 They are mere images of each other, more alike than they are different. So central planning, another one of these issues. But again, I think that the purpose of this slush fund is going to be a massive auction of everything to foreigners. Because you can talk about whether or not we're going to be English language in government. No, it's money language. Money. And I think that these people want to get their cut in all of it.
Starting point is 02:07:00 Just take a look at what is happening with all this Canadian nonsense. Why pick a fight with Canada, of all things? Again, he wants to have chaos. And you can see this reflected. It's just amazing to me. I don't follow sports. I certainly don't follow hockey. When I was a kid, I used to watch football, but I certainly don't follow hockey. But the Rangers fans, the New York Rangers, were booing the Canadian Maple Leafs when they were playing a game in Madison Square Garden.
Starting point is 02:07:29 I mean, we used to even have a sports league that went across Canada and the U.S. And now they're all booing each other when the national anthems are played. So the New York Rangers fans booed the singing of O Canada before the game against the Toronto Maple Leafs on Friday night. We had seen this once before and what they call the four nations face off. And it just keeps going on. And this is the Trump legacy. The other part of the Trump legacy. This is Reason commenting on that nonsense on uh friday on thursday and friday
Starting point is 02:08:06 the epstein client list reason headline says the sad quest for a secret epstein client list well again these people that you see there these influencers and i mean you know many many people have pointed this out i pointed out last week as well the fact, you know, many, many people have pointed this out. I pointed out last week as well. The fact that, you know, Epstein was working for Mossad and these people are Zionist influencers. And so you're going to turn over the Epstein files to the Zionist influencers. Yeah, that makes sense. Except they didn't turn anything over.
Starting point is 02:08:38 Except there isn't anything there. And you know there's not going to be anything there. Because Trump was all over the place yeah if there was honest epstein files folks with them being buddies for 10 years trump would be all over those files so of course they're not going to release them you know that ahead of time but this is all this is why they bring in these influencers these supporters of trump supporters of israel supporters of indirectly massad then and And that's why they bring them in, to pull the wool over your eyes, to influence you. Again, they're not out there searching for truth.
Starting point is 02:09:11 They don't identify themselves as researchers, but as influencers. They're there to nudge you, to propagandize you for their political position. And then I saw this. This was sent to me um joe rogan roast neo-nazi fed groups he says they're agent provocateurs it's a real thing he has elon musk on with him and the two of them are talking about the agent provocateurs and joe rogan says it's real it's a real thing alex jones taught me about them yeah well you, if people weren't so stupid, he taught a lot of people about agent provocateurs with Stop and Steal, didn't he? Alex knew full well what agent provocateurs are about.
Starting point is 02:09:55 He talked about it many, many times. Just like he knew full well the deleterious effects of mercury and of, what was the other thing that he pulled up said oh it's okay it'll be in the trump shot that's fine you you you be fine with that kind of stuff yeah you put that stuff in there there's he's said for years it's increasing autism that's okay that'll be in the vaccine it's got to be in there you know uh but it's a trump shot he's saving us from the bad thing well you know it was the agent provocateurs with january the 6th so alex played the pied piper the judas goat to lure people in knowing that there was going to be agent provocateurs and here's what these guys are saying you know look we got agent provocateurs all over the place and in this particular case
Starting point is 02:10:38 they're not talking about j6 they're talking about the neo-Nazi group Patriot Front. I said, look at that. It disbanded the day after FBI Director Christopher Wray stepped down. Well, of course, you can go to Elohim City and all the rest of the stuff and see how they had set up neo-Nazis and KKK and all the rest to entrap people. And they were all FBI people. And, of course, that's what January the 6th stuff was about as well. That's what the vaccine is sugar water stuff was about. It was about entrapping people.
Starting point is 02:11:15 So, again, that's your warning. Donald Trump continues to lie about fentanyl as he envisions himself as the king of Israel ruling from Gaza. This is Brian Shalhavi's Health Impact News report where he's talking a little bit about the, of course, that picture there is taken from that outrageous video that Trump put up, golden statues of himself and his Trump casino and all the rest of this. He renewed his threats to impose a 25% tariff
Starting point is 02:11:44 against imports from Canadaada and mexico starting next week remember he just he immediately said i'm going to do that and he said i'll wait 30 days okay now you know we're at the end of the 30 days uh so starting uh actually tomorrow march the 4th while lying in public about what he's claiming is a reason for these tariffs, which he says is because fentanyl is coming across the border. Ridiculous. Ridiculous. And yet you've got quote-unquote influencers like Jack Posobiec going up to the Canadian border, peaceful, small little town, covered in snow. Look at this. Anybody can come across the border.
Starting point is 02:12:19 Yeah, what do you want, Jack? Do you want to have drones and barbed wire and barking dogs at the border of canada in the u.s would that make you happy you know people can take fentanyl across the border from new york to new jersey too so should we have armed guards there as well yeah obviously he's selling an agenda he's another one of these influencers out there who is selling an agenda to you. Absolutely disgusting what these people do. Alex Jones, Jack the Soviet, Cernovich, on and on.
Starting point is 02:12:54 This Rogan Handley guy, the DC Drano. Anyway, so Brian Schoelhoff says, know, he reported and talked about it as well. 50 pounds total of fentanyl coming across the Canadian border for the entire year, according to them. All of it put into one bag of chicken feed, basically. Here's what's being reported about fentanyl seizures from Canadaada in 2025 according to the canadian border services agency he said they've got something called operation blizzard aimed at intercepting illegal contraband arriving and leaving canada with a focus on fentanyl and other synthetic narcotics says the canadian border patrol they shared that they had seized 56 grams of fentanyl this month, including 20 pills and 23 grams of a substance suspected to be fentanyl.
Starting point is 02:13:55 They didn't even say, you know, it's just like, oh, we suspected this is bird flu. Well, we suspected that this is fentanyl. So we grabbed it and we got some pills he says um 28 grams if they if it really was um you know what they expected to be fentanyl if it was really fentanyl he says you're talking about one ounce and this is supposedly the fentanyl crisis that is coming out of canada so what is it really about he says he says fortunately we can learn what trump's true reasons are for threatening canada with tariffs directly from trump himself he starts out with lies about fentanyl and basically admits he's lying as he gives a real reason that he is imposing tariffs on canada note he says i'm not debating whether or not the u.s should keep supporting canada whether or not they should
Starting point is 02:14:41 become the 51st state but when trump uses fentanyl excuse to beat them into submission, he is clearly lying. When did you ever read in the media, either corporate media or alternative media, that we had a fentanyl crisis on our border with Canada? Never. Until a few weeks ago when he started lying about it. He says when a person, and here's the key folks listen to this because this applies this is why character matters um and you know years ago i remember um when mitt romney was running and i forget the exact uh the exact incident that was involved there. But I said, you know, his character, he was caught in a lie, caught in several lies, as
Starting point is 02:15:31 a matter of fact. And I said, you know, the real issue here is that, you know, and I wasn't supporting Obama, but I said, it's a real issue when somebody lies. I said, apart from the fact a lot of people are getting upset about him being a Mormon and this and that. I said, well, here's the issue. It's a character issue. You know, he needs to have the integrity to say what he means. And if he will lie to you about this kind of stuff, well, then he's going to lie to you later on.
Starting point is 02:16:02 And when you look at Trump, as I've said many times, if you've got three wives, the first two, he kicked out the door and mocked them publicly, humiliated them. I mean, divorce has become very common, unfortunately, in our society, but he took it to a whole new level. He made an art out of divorce. He made it into something
Starting point is 02:16:22 that made him a big deal in people's eyes. Yeah, very much like Tate does, you know, in his denigration of women. They throw this stuff around about misogyny all the time, but he's the real deal, Andrew Tate is. He's the real deal when it comes to hating women and abusing women in so many different ways. And so is Donald Trump. And so you've got this fight. This is the other fight that broke out over the weekend. Andrew Tate comes in. You've got all of these MAGA guys love him and are,
Starting point is 02:16:55 yay, yay, he's in, and all the rest of this stuff. And DeSantis pulled back and criticized him. So there's this fight going on within the Republican Party over, do you like Andrew Tate or do you hate him? And, you know, you look at what this guy said and it is beyond reprehensible. I wasn't even going to play the,
Starting point is 02:17:11 I pulled some of this stuff up and you can see it on Twitter. And I downloaded the clips to put them in the board to play them. And I thought, you know, I don't even want to hear that stuff. I don't even want to put that out on the air. It's so disgusting and reprehensible.
Starting point is 02:17:26 Well, these people are fighting back and forth over this stuff, and yet they're united in their love of Donald Trump and the Republican Party. They may be divided over Andrew Tate, but they are unified in their love of Donald Trump, or maybe in their fear of him. But coming back to this, and this is what Brian Schoelhoff says. He says, when a person habitually lies, how can you ever believe what they say? And how can you trust them?
Starting point is 02:17:54 And see, that was the big lie of the 4D chess that Alex was telling everybody. Don't worry. He's lying to them. He's not lying to you. He's really going to do what he told you he's going to do he's just making it look like the other side's winning because he's playing them yeah right you know who was playing you it was alex jones was playing you with that because the corporate media are funded and supported by big pharma and the truth is that the fentanyl crisis in the u.s is from u U.S.-produced fentanyl from U.S. pharmaceutical companies, which are distributed through U.S. pharmacies. It's the same thing that happened with the opioid thing.
Starting point is 02:18:34 You go back and look at the opioid stuff, and it was all coming from Sackler, and it was coming from Johnson & Johnson, and the rest of this stuff. They were the ones responsible for it. This has all been proven in court of law over the past several years with mega lawsuits for fentanyl and for other opioids. He says here's a couple of recent articles. There's one that he referenced a guy that's in Mexico, Carlos Perez Ricart. He wrote a book, A Hundred Years of Spies and Drugs,
Starting point is 02:19:06 The Stories of the U.S.'s Counter-Narcotics Agents in Mexico. You want to talk about agent provocateurs? They just ought to rename the CIA to the AP. That name's already taken. They just ought to call the CIA and all these intelligence agencies, I'll just call them agent provocateurs.
Starting point is 02:19:30 You know, they're the ones running the drugs. They're the ones who created the drug war. Of course, the drug war was legislation that was put together by the UN, but the people that implemented it were the CIA and the usual suspects. So he talks about how this has been going on, going all the way back into the Second World War. A good example of this, you know, I talk frequently about civil asset forfeiture. And I saw this story on Breitbart. And they're bragging about it. See, we're interdicting the drugs and we're winning. Isn't that great? Donald Trump is interdicting drugs here. $500,000 in cartel cash seized in two Texas counties traffic stops.
Starting point is 02:20:10 How do they know it's cartel cash? It's cash. This is not a war on drugs. This is a war on cash. And Breitbart thinks this is a victory. It's several asset forfeiture. It's taking this cash because the idea is that you're not allowed to have cash. And we've seen this in varying amounts. One of the first stories I ever
Starting point is 02:20:30 saw was a black gardener who was going to fly to Florida to buy some supplies and rent a truck and fly back. And so he had a stash of cash. It was $9,000. And he goes up to the counter and, you know, he lives a simple life. He's a laborer and all this other kind of stuff. So he takes his money that he's saved and he goes to pay for the ticket in cash. So they get on the phone and they go, we got a guy here paying cash for tickets, obviously. And he's got a lot of cash in his pocket. So, you know, they call the police on him.
Starting point is 02:21:07 And they confiscate everything. He was 100% legit. 100% legit. And that was one of the first civil asset forfeiture cases that I saw. But, you know, here's a black guy with cash. He's buying a ticket at the last minute. It checks all the boxes. And he's obviously a suspect.
Starting point is 02:21:26 Well, at least his money is. We know the money was ill-gotten gain. They couldn't prove anything on him. They just stole his money and wouldn't give it back. And he was, in fact, what he said he was. A gardener, you know, or not gardener, but, you know, somebody in that type of thing. I mean, he's going to get plants and stuff like that in a landscaping business, not gardening. The occupants of this vehicle face state charges in Texas related to cash smuggling.
Starting point is 02:21:53 Smuggling of cash? Oh, what does that mean, even? You know, this is like the structured withdrawals that they came after Dennis Hastert for, you know? The guy who was a known pedophile, they wanted to come after him for something, so they came after him for taking out his money in a way that it wouldn't be detected. Now they're coming after these people for carrying cash in their car in a way that it wouldn't be detected. What are you supposed to do?
Starting point is 02:22:19 You're supposed to lay the cash out on the dashboard like some of these people with Jeeps put the ducks, you know? Look, I've got stacks of cash all over all over i'm not trying to smuggle anything yeah i'm just trying to get killed um and robbed i mean if i was carrying cash yeah i would hide it in the seats or something now this was a large amount of cash so what it may indicate these people really are connected to the cartels but um having cash should not be a crime and breitbart is treating it as if this well we know that this is cartel cash no you don't you don't know anything of the sort uh so u.s border patrol chief said quote another major hit to criminal enterprises look if they got a half a million dollars from these guys, that's not a major hit to them.
Starting point is 02:23:10 Come on, get real. During the stop, authorities found more than $267,000 in cash hidden under the vehicle's backseat. Again, anybody in their right mind, if they had $267,000 in cash, they would hide it under the back seat or somewhere. Officials found approximately $280,000 of cash hidden throughout the vehicle. Authorities seized the vehicle and arrested the driver on state charges of bulk cash smuggling. That should not be a crime any more than withdrawing cash from your own bank account. That's already been publicly declared, you know, tax declarations and all the rest of stuff. That should not be a crime either.
Starting point is 02:23:53 Smuggling cash? They throw smuggling in there so that it's illegal, right? You're carrying cash. So therefore, they call it smuggling. Seizing significant quantities of drugs and cash along the Interstate 10 smuggling corridor between San Antonio and Houston. I've gone down that. I never realized I was in a smuggling corridor. Did you, Karen?
Starting point is 02:24:17 I didn't. Boy, I would have been a lot more careful. I would have hidden my cash. This is it, right? So, you call it a smuggling corridor you say if somebody's got cash it's obviously a crime no no cash should not be having cash should not be a crime but that's what they want it to be and so you've got these people who are pushing what trump is pushing with the fentanyl stuff and the drug war and all the rest of this, and saying this is a victory.
Starting point is 02:24:49 No, it is anything but a victory. We're going to take a break. We'll be right back. That's right, boys and girls. There's a post-election sale on silver and gold. Trump euphoria has caused a dip in silver and gold. It's time to buy some metals with fiat dollars before they come to their sense is. Go to davidknight.gold to get in touch with the wise wolf himself, Tony Arterburn.
Starting point is 02:25:16 He knows where to look to find silver and gold. Wahoo! Vi vill vara syna och vänja Jag vill vara syna och vänja © BF-WATCH TV 2021 you're listening to the david knight show uh hBaird36 says, Elon Musk on Joe Rogan's podcast said, Social Security is the biggest Ponzi scheme. But in reality, it is crypto. You're absolutely right. They've said for years.
Starting point is 02:26:36 And I think, of course, Social Security is a Ponzi scheme. But now we have the greater fool Ponzi scheme of crypto. That's what it's always about. What did Ponzi do? He's telling everybody how great this is and skirting this thing along as the greater fool was being played. And that's exactly what I see with crypto.
Starting point is 02:27:00 Kim K, thank you very much for the tip. I appreciate that. Matt Bradford, for all we know epstein got a laurel canyon makeover i'm not sure i know what that is but i can guess that uh yeah i agree with you i i i don't think he was killed actually but um uh who knows i certainly know he didn't commit suicide everybody knows that but i don't think he was killed. Guess who's the next great business guru or box office star? Speaking of that,
Starting point is 02:27:29 I mean, the Oscar stuff, isn't it amazing? I mean, nobody cares about that at all. There's not even a buzz about that. There was an article that I saw listed on the Drudge Report
Starting point is 02:27:40 saying that something like 53% of Americans or something had not seen a single one of the movies that was on for best picture because that doesn't even apply best picture uh it's it's absurd but um yeah as a matter of fact the number one box office film which was their restructuring of captain america America with a black guy. And they had a roof. Maybe you saw this.
Starting point is 02:28:08 I didn't talk about it. They had a roof collapse at a theater that was showing it. Fortunately, nobody was hurt because there's only two people in the theater. That's the number one, the number one box office thing that's out there. It's ridiculous what they're putting in. Nobody really cares and of course you know the conservative movement about ronald reagan was kept out of consideration for an oscar not yeah again not anything i'm not interested in seeing some reagan hagiography you know turning him into a saint or whatever uh i'm not at all interested in seeing that film but the reason it was excluded it wasn't because
Starting point is 02:28:46 it was a hagiography it was excluded because they didn't have any lgbt people in there so it obviously could not be considered uh for content you gotta shoehorn them in somehow into a story where they didn't fit um ron helton you can tell who the bs artists are on twitter they all have big accounts probably most of the quote-unquote followers are fake i agree geesebusters thank you very much and it was so um so much fun very interesting to talk to geesebusters on friday i got a lot of messages about uh from people who really enjoyed uh the the interview and uh and it really was very interesting. And I'll always remember it because we had our chicken was getting attacked.
Starting point is 02:29:31 We had a background that had a bird on it, and then we had multiple attacks on our chicken, which the jury is still out as to whether or not she's going to survive that hawk attack. But we've kept her quiet and isolated on her own but she lost a lot of feathers and um got a really some really bad uh slashes on her neck and her thing from those hawks so um and you know she shouldn't have uh flown the coop but she did and uh so we got some repair work to do on that as well uh j Alatalo, blazing saddles. Specific evidence.
Starting point is 02:30:07 We don't need no stinking specific evidence. There you go. Narrow Way Narrogate Ministries says Tennessee sheriff was arrested with his patrol car loaded with Mary Jane and other drugs, marijuana, being watched by the FBI working with state police on a sting operation since 2023 these guys just wanted to hang out in tennessee i guess uh they had to run this thing for two years as an investigation and a sting of course we always see the fbi stings well speaking uh we've been talking a lot about government and the fact that everything they have is stolen. So speaking of theft, we had an interesting case of theft in the UK. In Lincolnshire, England, we had thieves. They didn't break into the church because the church keeps its doors unlocked.
Starting point is 02:30:57 But the thieves stole the Ten Commandments from the church. And as one of the elders said, they clearly didn't read it. Maybe they will now. All three of the things that were stolen were displayed in heavy wooden frames and depicted religious themes, including the Lord's Prayer and Moses delivering the commandments. They said, and the church, they said they have sentimental value to the church and to its members i guess they could have also said we don't store up our treasures on earth where thieves can break in and steal right even thieves can break in and steal the ten commandments they'll steal anything won't they uh they probably wanted to learn a bit more about the commandments uh thou shalt not
Starting point is 02:31:42 steal said the church warden who's 80 years old. Despite the concerns, the church warden said that the church doors remain open. He said, obviously, it doesn't make you feel good that some items have been stolen, but closing the doors would conflict with our tradition of welcoming people. Oh, there you go. One thing that has closed its doors, and we're glad to see that happening, are transgender clinics in India. In India. You see, our CIA government is not just content on corrupting and destroying our society. They want to send that around the world. And so they're actually setting up transgender clinics in India. I mean, we are the epicenter.
Starting point is 02:32:27 We now have demonic missions that we send people on. That's what our country is about. Isn't that amazing? You think about this as demonic missionaries to sell the religion of transgenderism to people in other countries and to harm them as well. But again, USAID is CIA. They've always been about this kind of thing.
Starting point is 02:32:51 So, you know, in Lincolnshire, they missed the thou shalt not steal thing. And these guys missed the part about male and female. He created them. Right. So several so-called transgender health care clinics they call it a health care clinic overseas have closed their doors thanks to the pause on usaid cia funding cia and again rolling this funding out through usaid i'm surprised that I haven't seen anybody in the MAGA cult talk about the fact that Obama's mama was USAID. You know, everybody, was he black or is he white? It's like, no, it doesn't matter.
Starting point is 02:33:33 He was CIA. That's what you need to be concerned about. It's not his skin color. It's what went into his background. His white mother and his white grandparents were all CIA. The grandparents were part of the OSS during World War II. They were founding members of the CIA. His mother worked all of her life for USAID, which is a CIA front group, and doing this kind of perverted stuff around the world. When they're not engaged in assassinations or coups, they're out there spreading demonic perversion.
Starting point is 02:34:09 That's it. It's sinister. It's a cult. This group has been the driving force behind the cultural decline in our country and many other countries, selling sex, setting people up with sex, selling drugs, the drug trafficking, all the rest of the stuff. It's one of the main reasons why there's been institutional decline and decline of the family
Starting point is 02:34:31 in this country. I mean, even architecture and art, they even got into that to mess it up, right? Nothing says demonic influence to me more than the activities of the cia and the nsa and include them in as well because we had michael aquino who was i think a colonel or something you know he's also allegations of him being a pedophile uh started a demonic temple but you know after the accusations of him being a pedophile were brought, the NSA protected him, got him out of that state of California, took him somewhere else. Among the main losers following the freezing of USAID funds has been these three clinics in India. And they call them MITR, M-I-T-R, which means friend.
Starting point is 02:35:24 That's the way they would position themselves, isn't it? Wow. The first MITR clinic in India was founded in 2021 with Johns Hopkins being a part of this. They're always at the center as well. Johns Hopkins has been a part of Dark Winter 2001, the first one of these germ game things, and they played a role in all the other 20 that happened where they were practicing what they did to us in 2020 with the so-called COVID pandemic. So Reuters said the services administered there included hormone therapy.
Starting point is 02:35:58 That's not therapy. It's hormone disruption. Hormone disruption. They're not correcting something that's a problem. They're disrupting your body's natural hormones. So it's hormone disruption for 5,000 gender-confused persons. Elon Musk celebrated the shutting down of one of the clinics. He said, that's what American taxpayer dollars were funding, he said on X.
Starting point is 02:36:22 Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana also expressed outrage over the funding during a speech on the floor of the U.S. Senate last month. He said, Mr. Musk found that USAID gave money to a transgender clinic, three of them actually, in India. I didn't know that. I bet you, the American people,
Starting point is 02:36:39 didn't know that, he said. The Times of London has similarly reported that Britain's top LGBT group, Stonewall, could lay off up to half of its 114-person staff as a result of Trump administration foreign aid cuts. Let's hope so. You know, they groom, they mutilate the minors, and they say that if they don't do this, that these children will commit suicide, right? So because, you know, if we don't do this to them, they say for them, they'll commit suicide. So let's forget all the laws about pedophilia, all the obscenity laws and all the rest of this stuff. But actually, the mutilation and the sterilization of minors actually increases their rate of suicide.
Starting point is 02:37:30 Actually, that's just the opposite of what they're saying, of course. And Planned Parenthood has now seen a new profit center in these transgender services of mutilization and sterilization. And guess what? Just like their other business interest in terms of abortion, it turns out that not only do the people who do the transgender mutilation and sterilization, not only do they have a higher suicide rate, but so do women who have abortions are much more likely to attempt suicide. The final act of assault driven into despair by Planned Parenthood and by these satanic agendas. Researchers surveyed nearly 2,000 women between the ages of 41 and 45, and they found that 34.7% of those who had abortions had attempted suicide, compared
Starting point is 02:38:28 to 17% who had never been pregnant and 13.4% who had delivered live births. So let's think about that. If you're a mom, you've given live birth 13.4%, but if you never gave birth, it's actually 28% higher, the rate of suicide. They want to portray it exactly the opposite. And look at how it's portrayed throughout the media. You know, oh, kids are driving me crazy. I'm going to kill myself, and all the rest of this stuff. It's just the most horrible thing to have all these kids around me. And yet, those who didn't have children have a 28% higher suicide rate. But then for those who didn't have children and have a 28% higher suicide rate than the mothers,
Starting point is 02:39:12 you go to those who had an abortion and theirs is double that of the people who didn't have kids. And it is 159% higher than those who became mothers and did not have abortions. This is a story from live action news of a woman who had the abortion pill and it nearly killed her. It was a live action video. A young woman recounts the extreme physical trauma she experienced after the abortion pill caused her to go into septic shock. She said she was a college student when she found out that she was pregnant. Faced with an unplanned pregnancy, she was unsure what to do. She looked to her boyfriend at the time for support, only to have him pressure her into an abortion.
Starting point is 02:39:57 Though she was hesitant, she agreed to go through with the procedure. Describing her emotions at the time as anxious, lost, confused, scared. She's got a lot of pressure from a lot of different angles. After taking the first drug in the abortion pill regimen, I call it Mephistopheles. I think it's Mephistone, right? Whatever it is. I don't know. It's Mephistopheles. After that first pill, she went home, started experiencing crap so so bad she said it felt like someone was stabbing me in the stomach it was unbearable she said two days later her pain had not subsided she went back to the abortion facility for a follow-up both told that an
Starting point is 02:40:39 ultrasound showed that the abortion had been successful. Don't worry about it. She said they just kind of brushed it off and said, these are the symptoms, you're fine. After she didn't get better and her mother noticed that she still looked ill, her father drove her to a hospital. Another ultrasound found that the abortion had not been completed and that there were remains of her child inside of her that was causing a septic infection, septic shock. So she said, they put me into an induced coma, and I nearly died.
Starting point is 02:41:13 After a week, she was transferred to another hospital while still in a coma. When she finally awoke, she found herself hooked up to multiple tubes, receiving blood transfusions and unable to talk for at least a day. The abortion pill had given her an infection behind her uterus and resulted in her needing to have a partial hysterectomy. During recovery, she had to relearn how to do many daily tasks, including how to walk, how to brush her teeth, how to write, how to chew her food, and more. In all, she said she was in the hospital for nearly two months.
Starting point is 02:41:47 At first, she wanted to hide her abortion experience, but she's found healing through therapy and in sharing her story with others. She said, I thought, well, it's just going to be a quick pill. But she said, I don't recommend it to anyone. And of course, this is a pill that is dispensed without any examination now. As to how big is the baby. I mean, perhaps the baby was larger. Perhaps that was why there were parts of the baby that were left behind. I tell you, it's just amazing to see this, but I think we're going to unfortunately have a lot of these types of things and women seeing the result of the abortion, which is usually hidden from them in Planned Parenthood and many of them speaking
Starting point is 02:42:32 out. When we talk about the grooming in the schools, Texas Whistleblower has turned over a list of 2,300 teachers who were accused of raping and sexually abusing children. What? How in the world does this happen? This is a story by Alex Newman, by the way. He always does a great job reporting what's happening with education. Yeah, it is grooming, isn't it? And we all know that. Why should we be surprised about this?
Starting point is 02:42:58 And the institutional corruption at the state level, in a conservative red state type of thing, right? Texas. Government schools across Texas are protecting child rapists and abusers, even allowing them to be legally shifted around to other schools to abuse more children. You know, when this happens in the Catholic Church or other denominations and things like that, people will always cover up for it, right? And try to pretend that doesn't happen. And we've seen the situation where you know that somebody's a pedophile.
Starting point is 02:43:29 What do they do? They transfer them to another diocese or something. Well, that's what they're doing here in the schools. Why isn't there outrage over this? See, most of the outrage over that was because they wanted to attack a religion. This is being kept quiet because this is about the schools. And what is at the basis of this is one word in a Texas law. And what it does is you have in there the Texas Family Code.
Starting point is 02:44:03 They say educational officials have the option to report child raping teachers to the state board for educational certification instead of the police. And the reason that that's there is because of one word. It says that they shall be reported to the board or to the police.
Starting point is 02:44:20 Or, not and, or. So rather than requiring education authorities to report criminals working for school districts including child rapists to both law enforcement and the certification agency the code uses the word or in practice that has resulted in districts refusing to report to the acute the accused to law enforcement merely notifying the state's teacher certification agency. They said the horrific details first emerged when a whistleblower in the state education agency sent the Open Records Project a list of over 10,000 teachers accused of various crimes.
Starting point is 02:45:00 And that list included over 2,300 accused of raping and sexually abusing children. A small percentage of those were placed on a, quote, do not hire list. But over 90% were considered eligible to return to the classroom by the state's teacher certification agency. So here you have the teacher certification agency. They just move them on to somewhere else, 90% of them. They don't even fire them, let alone have any criminal investigation by the police. So they report it to the educational bureaucracy. Critics and researchers have talked about this when it happens at various institutions.
Starting point is 02:45:42 They call it passing the trash. Somebody is accused of doing something like this. You don't want to embarrass the institution. So you just pass them on to somewhere else and let them do it all over again. Lots of people knew, but they also knew to keep their mouths shut. In 2004, the U.S. Department of Education released the most comprehensive review of the data on sex crimes by educators against children. Again, going back to 2004. It was called the Shake Shaft Report by Carol Shake Shaft.
Starting point is 02:46:15 They found that about 1 in 10 children are victims of sexual misconduct by government school staff. Over a third of the victims were below high school age. More recent estimates suggest the numbers are much higher. Well, of course they are. Look at how much more degenerate the schools are now. Not even close. Not even close. Matt Bradford says, explaining Laurel Canyon.
Starting point is 02:46:40 Laurel Canyon makeover means the place where people whose death got faked get a brand new identity okay that was a phrase i wasn't familiar with thank you for filling that in i'll look that up i always interested in the etymology of these um of words or figures of speech uh brian and deb mccartney good to see you there david she flew the coop, F-L-U. She wanted to help spread the word, doing her part to help herd or to get flock immunity. There we go. Well, let's take a look at this. This is an interesting story that I saw on Friday that I didn't get to. And this is RFK Jr.'s running mate, Nicole Shanahan.
Starting point is 02:47:22 And she has, you know, when we look at celebrities, and I'm not somebody who says, oh, look, you know, so-and-so just said they believe the Bible or they believe Christ, you know, whatever. So that validates what I believe. I don't think that at all. And it always surprises me to see how much emphasis everybody puts on some celebrity's profession of faith. And I'm not here to judge it one way or the other. That's not my job. The job of a Christian is to proclaim what the truth is,
Starting point is 02:47:52 not to be a fruit inspector or to set in judgment of other people. God is the one who will judge where everybody is on this stuff. And I guess, you know, when we look at it, part of it is, you know, everybody feels if they see a celebrity, somebody they've watched a lot, they feel like they know them to some degree. Just the example of Gene Hackman and his wife and dog all dying and everybody's, oh, it's like he's 95 years old. He doesn't look anything at all like Gene Hackman. Most of these people never met him, but they watched him on movies, and they feel like they know him. So they got like a – sometimes people get more involved in things that happen to celebrities than they do in things that happen to their friends or neighbors or family members even.
Starting point is 02:48:40 Kind of a strange thing, isn't it? And so, you know, when we look at somebody who's a public figure and we all know what their flaws are and where they've come from, it's tempting for people to judge them, I think. But I don't, like I said, I don't typically talk about this, but her testimony was kind of interesting, I thought. Especially because she came at all this and still i think has a lot of the baggage from where she came from uh you can look at it and you can see how um how much of a leftist liberal she is he's in a new age stuff identity politics and all the rest of the stuff you see all that in her in her testimony but i thought it was still kind of interesting some of the things that she had to say. You know, she had been steeped in all this New Age stuff. And there's still a lot of things
Starting point is 02:49:32 in her testimony that don't line up with the Bible. And yet, you know, when we look at this, and I would just say, you know, when we listen to the stories of people, we always want to jump in. It's like, oh, are they doing this to have alternative motives? You know, this is somebody who has been accused of a lot of sexual crimes, and maybe he's professing faith in Christ because he wants to get out of jail card or something. Maybe they want it because they want to, maybe they're talking about this because it's to their political advantage for the conservative group or whatever. So we can be very cynical about this stuff. And we can also be very judgmental about it.
Starting point is 02:50:10 And I would just say that, you know, of course, when you look, I would disagree with a lot of the things that she says here. I'm just saying this as an intro to the testimony thing she had. But, you know, none of us has perfect understanding. And none of us has perfect obedience, and none of us has perfect obedience. That's why we need Christ, right? And even when we do the right thing, many times we'll do it out of the wrong motivation. Maybe we'll do it out of pride. Maybe we'll do it because, again, we want it for a business purpose or political purposes or something like that. So I just say that as a preface.
Starting point is 02:50:45 I thought it was kind of interesting what she had to say. She said, faith is not about having the answers, but about trusting in the one who does. And when you find him, you will know you are finally home, she said. Well, I certainly agree with that. She said, there's only one book, and that's the New Testament that helps you to understand how to go up against evil and how to really arm yourself, she said. And here's with her, she did an interview with Glenn Beck, and she's talking about that thing, and that was what I saw first.
Starting point is 02:51:24 Here's what she had to say with Glenn Beck, who I certainly have a lot of disagreements with as well. I've spent time with the Bible and Christianity in the last year. I notice you're wearing a cross. Yeah. Yeah. This year taught me a lot. that of all of the intellectual experiences I've had with spirituality, there's only one book, and that is the New Testament, that helps you understand how to go up against evil.
Starting point is 02:52:00 Like, to really arm yourself for it. Old Testament has some of it, too, but the New Testament really does teach you how to do it with a great deal of grace and faith so i thought that was kind of interesting and what drew me into that was the fact that she'd been involved in politics and uh if you get involved in politics if you get involved in big media and stuff you certainly do see the evil that is there. And so from my personal experience, that got my attention. So what is it that she says? She says, well, I went up against evil.
Starting point is 02:52:33 I'm running for this. She said in her statement online, she said, sometimes life has this way of turning down the volume and all the chaos. And in that stillness, we get a clear glimpse of what truly matters. One of these moments occurred in my life last month, she said. It was a quiet January night just a few days before the presidential inauguration. I was lying in bed in the middle of the night with my six-year-old, Echo. And again, she was married to the co-founder of Google, Sergey Brin. And the marriage broke up. And allegations of adultery with Elon Musk and things like that.
Starting point is 02:53:11 So I don't know what's next. She doesn't go into that aspect of it. But so she's got a child that they named Echo. Anyway, gently calming her after a night terror had awakened her. As she finally drifted back to sleep, I felt a heaviness settle over me, thick and suffocating like the air before a storm. It pressured against my chest, not like a weight, but like a presence, something unseen yet undeniable. At that moment, I could only think to bow my head and close my eyes and offer a silent prayer to God. In September of 2024, our family suffered a heart-wrenching loss,
Starting point is 02:53:51 one that I'm not prepared to speak about in detail yet, but I will when the time is right. Not long after that tragedy, I met an incredible woman named Diane, who says she's a bishop. Again, this is, like I said, I have issues with um some of this but she said i'm still getting the hang of the lingo she's new right she's new and of course this woman um who calls herself a bishop has been around for a long time uh she somehow has um convinced herself that some of the passages are pretty clear don't really apply. But anyway, she says, I don't know whether to say pastor, preacher, minister, depending on the church, but I know her as a deeply faithful soul who helped guide me closer to
Starting point is 02:54:32 Jesus, she said. She said, I first crossed paths with Diane through my masseuse. His name is Ade, a Mayan Mexican immigrant. That's really important to her. The identity politics you'll see is very important to her from where she's coming from. Again, Ade is a kind, quiet Christian who would whisper prayers for me while he worked without ever letting on. It wasn't until months later that he told me about it.
Starting point is 02:55:00 And to this day, he remembers the first time we met and how worried he was about me. She said, one day it finally hit me that his prayers were doing more to heal me than the deep tissue massage ever could so i said hey ade do you know anyone who can help keep bad energy away from people see she's coming at it from this new age thing she's feeling bad energy or something uh she said basically an exorcism exorcism and he looked at me and said, yes, when you're ready. In the weeks following our family's loss, I saw him again. And as he had so many times before, he prayed for me, but this time was different. I bowed my head, let the tears fall, and begged for God's help. It was then that Ade connected me with Diane.
Starting point is 02:55:42 You know, and again, like a lot of new believers, she's highly focused on a person, right? On a messenger, at the beginning of this, rather than the message. So she's focused on this guy because he's Mayan, Mexican, and she's focused on this woman because a leftist bishop or something. But here's the thing. She said, Diana opened up her worn and well-loved Bible filled with highlights, underlines, and post-it tabs. You know, and as I look at that, I thought, you know, I hope your Bible is like that. You know, this woman may differ in a lot of different ways, and I'm not saying that anything that she's doing is orthodox, but she's working hard at it. I mean, think about it. Have you opened your Bible enough to put a post-it on it? This is why I say, we don't sit here in judgment of other people,
Starting point is 02:56:36 but we look at it as to what we can learn. We understand that we are all beggars looking for bread, and wherever we find something we point to it and tell other people that it's there as well uh so she said um there's a book that had been studied and prayed over thousands of times she moved through it with laser precision guiding me to verse after verse as i struggled to read through my blurry blurry tear-eyed tear-filled eyes she said the pain of life sometimes can consume your entire reality, and the injustice, the loss, the extreme nature of all can feel genuinely unbearable. The weight of the world perpetuated by greed, by lies, by indifference can often feel hopeless.
Starting point is 02:57:23 Diane looked at me and said with absolute certainty that Jesus could save me, that his blood is able to wash away sins and defeat the darkness that haunts the innocent. You see, whether or not she's got it all right, I don't think she does have it all right, but she can get to the essence of the truth. And this is why we shouldn't be concerned
Starting point is 02:57:42 that we don't have all of our theological ducks in a row. The gospel, just like I said with J.D. Vance, and I don't know what his motivation is for that. Maybe he's sincere. Maybe he's not. He's a politician. But what he had to say, regardless of his motivation for saying it, as Paul said, he said some people preach Christ out of greed. Some people preach him out of other motivations, he said, some people preach Christ out of greed. Some people preach him out of other motivations, he said, but I just rejoice that he's preached. And I hope that, you know, we can all have that kind of attitude. She said, I've always believed in God, but I never fully grasped the reality of the devil. Growing up with a father who seemed to be overcome by his
Starting point is 02:58:20 demons, I tried to avoid, quote unquote, bad energy. She puts it in quotes. He was addicted to alcohol and would fall into manic rages, yelling profanities at the wall. He would scream, laugh, cry, and wail all in a single evening alone downstairs in our home in Oakland. I was taught that my father was a sick person, but I never seriously considered whether demons were real until recently. She said, my last year in politics, here's the thing. My last year in politics, here's the thing, my last year in politics
Starting point is 02:58:45 changed that. You get into politics, you get into these big media stuff, and you realize just how real it is. Let me tell you, folks, no question about it. No question about it. Learning just how far some will go to inflict atrocities on innocent Americans has shocked me awake. Boy, I tell you, you can't miss it. That's why I look at this stuff and I look at these influencers who are pushing for war and pushing for the rest of this stuff. It just amazes me, amazes me how people can jump into that and how they can deceive their own followers, knowingly deceiving them. Oh, yeah, he knows about agent provocateur.
Starting point is 02:59:32 Yeah, he does. He absolutely does. He does. He wrote the book on it. Unexplainable events, she said, have also forced me to reconsider whether we are waging a war, not merely with flesh and blood, but with spiritual forces. Many people shy away from acknowledging the reality of spiritual warfare, but anyone who has seen addiction up close or lived through deep trauma and witnessed how evil takes hold in this world knows that the battle of good versus evil
Starting point is 03:00:00 isn't just theoretical. It is real, and it is all around us. Yeah, and this is why I read her testimony to you. It could be addiction to alcohol. It could be money. It could be other drugs. It could be power. It could be sex.
Starting point is 03:00:14 It could be any of these other things. And you can see the fruit of it. When you get into politics, you can see the fruit of it. Let me just say that is absolutely true. She said, so now she said i'm a jew for jesus have a good day the common man they created common core to dumb down our children. They created Common Past to track and control us. Their Commons Project to make sure the commoners own nothing.
Starting point is 03:00:51 And the Communist future. They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary. But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God. That is what we have in common. That is what they want to take away. Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation. They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us. It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide.
