Starting point is 00:00:00 You know, world of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act it's the david night show as a clock strikes 13 it's monday the 6th of october here on lord 2025 the numbers are flying by on the calendar here but uh something else it is flying by as a relic of a Bygone past is the Constitution. We're going to take a look at the police state of Donald Trump. He's even getting pushback from a judge that he appointed, and she is 100% right in terms of what she said,
Starting point is 00:01:14 that this is against everything this country was ever founded upon. We do not want a standing army enforcing arbitrary edicts by a unitary executive. So we're going to talk about that to start with. We're also going to talk about. AI. You know, maybe it's not really a threat to jobs, except when it crashes the stock market. We'll be right back. San Francisco, Chicago, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, they're very unsafe places, and we're going to straighten them out one by one.
Starting point is 00:02:18 They're saying you're trying to take over the republic. And this is going to be a major part for some of the people in this room. That's a war, too. It's a war from within. I told Pete, we should use some of these dangerous cities as training grounds for our military yeah a war from within looks like he's doing his best to start a civil war yeah the other people are chipping in on their side as well it's the left right divide and he's looking for any excuse to build this up you know for the longest time you know what we saw in
Starting point is 00:02:48 chicago with hundreds of troops helicopters people rappelling off of the helicopters going through arresting everybody in sight, including children, throwing flashbang grenades everywhere. This is precisely what Alex Jones was talking about more than a decade ago. He had already done for police state documentaries when I started to work for him. I thought he was against this stuff. No, it turns out he's for it if it's done by Trump. He's against it only if it's done by the Democrats. We talked about this, everybody making fun of the black helicopters, the drills and all the different cities.
Starting point is 00:03:25 And I talked about this event last week, but I'm going to go back over again. I had the woman who said, in Chicago, a black woman in a poor area of town. And we know that there's a lot of gang fighting there, which is a relic of the drug war, which they're now escalating to a new and dangerous level. But there are people that are shot several dozen shot every weekend there, rival gangs. A lot of people killed with that. But this woman who's lived there over life says, I've never had a gun stuck in my face before.
Starting point is 00:03:59 It took the federal government to do that. They can always come in and make a bad situation worse, can't they? Sometimes you can just, what you're throwing on the fire is a bucket of gasoline. Around 1 a.m. in the morning on last Tuesday, armed federal agents repelled from helicopters on the roof of a five-story residential apartment on the south shore of Chicago. As they worked their way through the building, they kicked down door. doors. They threw flash grenades. They rounded up adults and screaming children detaining them in zip ties and arresting dozens of them. This is the kind of over-the-top satire level of
Starting point is 00:04:42 authoritarian police state that we would see typically by Terry Gilliam in 1984 in Brazil. I'm laughing, but this is how absurd it has become. Trump is an absurdity. He's an authoritarian absurdity. He is aiming not for Nobel Peace Prize. What he really deserves is to be charged in international criminal court because his role model is Robert Duterte of the Philippines. And I was glad to see that reason picked up on that. They said his, the way he's conducting himself, the things that he's saying,
Starting point is 00:05:16 death penalties for this and death penalties for that, just like that dictator in the Philippines, whom he loved in his first term. He thought the guy was doing a great job. And now he wants to mimic him. The military raid was part of a widespread immigration crackdown called Operation Midway Blitz. It's drawn outrage through Chicago and the state and rights groups and lawmakers claiming it represents a dramatic escalation and the tactics used by the federal authorities. Of course it has. And it disgusts me to see conservatives excusing this.
Starting point is 00:05:50 Now, we've got, as an example, this is a war within. What happens in war? Well, the first casualty is truth, and you have both sides of the war, have their own narrative about what happened. And we're going to see that when we talk about this woman who was shot by ice. Was she the aggressor? Were they the aggressor? It depends on who you hear from. And so you can't find out what the truth is once this starts.
Starting point is 00:06:16 And that's why you better make sure that you've exhausted every other possibility before you start a war. Trump is the guy that they have put in charge to take us into a civil war. So Illinois Governor Pritzker has now been given the opportunity by Donald Trump to sound like he's a founding father. It's ridiculous. It's ridiculous that he's making heroes out of these people, you know, like Jimmy Kimmel or whatever. You know, Jimmy Kimmel and Pritzker and anything, he's putting them in as victims so they look good. the same thing the Democrats did to Trump when he was running for office, which is why he never had
Starting point is 00:07:00 to run for office, why he never had to debate anybody, why he never had to defend his shoddy record of his first term either. So Pritzker accused federal agents of separating children from their parents, they did, zip tying their hands, they did, and detaining them in dark vans for hours. They did. Videos show flashbangs erupting in the street, followed by residents from the apartment building children among them being led from the building photos and shoes littering the apartment hallways evidence of those pulled from their beds at one a.m. in the morning by FBI and Homeland Security agents. This makes me want to throw up. This is not America. This is Trump's America. And MAGA and conservatives want to cheer this stuff. They're part of the problem.
Starting point is 00:07:50 They're no better than Antifa. They are no better than Antifa. They are no better than Antifa. They have a different cause, but the two sides, neither one of them, have any principles, any moral foundation that they want to build a civilization off of. They now just want to go after each other. And guess what? We're stuck in the middle with an antiphon on the left of us and Maga on the right. I'm stuck here in the middle with you. It's an Orwellian farce what Trump is doing here.
Starting point is 00:08:16 Pritzker said these military-style tactics should never be used on children in a functioning democracy. that didn't happen in a country with an authoritarian regime it happened here in Chicago well it did happen in a country with an authoritarian regime how many times does Trump have to
Starting point is 00:08:31 get rid of the First Amendment how many times does you have to do this until we call it what it is rule by executive order is an authoritarian regime folks he said this happened in the U.S. DHS has touted some 900 arrests
Starting point is 00:08:48 in Chicago operation look I'm very much against leaving people with who are illegal aliens here. I think, you know, some of these people are, the criminals have been arrested and let loose and let loose and let's. So fix the judicial system, number one, fix the judicial system. Number two, you can fix local law enforcement. They're finding these people, the violent criminals, and they're arresting them.
Starting point is 00:09:16 The problem is the judicial system is turning them back out on the street. And the biggest problem is that we've got this gigantic welfare magnet. You come here and we'll give you free money forever. Fix those problems before you start doing this kind of stuff. They're doing this kind of stuff because they want a civil war, folks. Shame on them. Shame on the people who support this. So 37 arrests were made in the nighttime raid on Tuesday,
Starting point is 00:09:46 all of whom it said were involved in drug trafficking and distribution weapons. crimes, and immigration violators. This area was known to be frequented by the Trinity game, which, again, good case can be made that it was a creation of the CIA, just like al-Qaeda. The ACLU said the raid represented an escalation of force and violence from the federal government in Chicago. They can be right occasionally, you know, like a broken clock.
Starting point is 00:10:14 What we saw was a full-fledged military operation conducted on the south side of Chicago against an apartment building, an apartment building. So, yeah, police state five, the Trump Maga deception. How about having that one, Alex? They just treated us like we were nothing, said a citizen from the apartment building. She said she was handcuffed and held for hours. This is the one I played the other day. They held her until 3 a.m. in the morning.
Starting point is 00:10:43 So the first time a gun has ever put into her face. So the rage come just days after Trump signaled a desire to make greater use of the U.S. military in American cities during the speech, I just played some of that for you, the war from within, telling the assembled generals last week, we are under invasion from within. How are you under invasion from within? It doesn't even say invasion across our borders. No different than a foreign enemy, but more difficult in many ways because they don't wear uniforms. Hey, you know, if they don't wear uniforms, they might think that you are the enemy at some point in time, might they? And especially these guys, when these guys, the ICE people, when they do wear uniforms, they put masks on their face. Why do we wear uniforms? Why do we have rules of war? Why do we have laws? Why do we have the Constitution?
Starting point is 00:11:40 ISIS tactics were denounced on Friday. A Chicago alder person was handcuffed by federal immigration agents at the Chicago Medical Center. after questioning agents about their warrant to arrest people at the medical center. So if you question somebody and say, do you have a warrant for this? You get arrested. So that's not authoritarian, is it? DHS says that agents shot a woman in Chicago after they were boxed in, they said. Now, this is the event that everybody was disputing over the weekend, everybody talking about it.
Starting point is 00:12:14 And it's very interesting to see the two sides of this. and so you got people on the left saying look at this they just shot a woman by the people on the right say our poor agents nearly died if looks could have killed federal agents shot a woman after being surrounded by cars the woman who was armed in the semi-automatic weapon allegedly rammed her car into the agents now the question is uh you know if she had a gun did she point the gun at them did she fire the gun no nobody said that she pointed the gun at them. Nobody said she fired the gun. Did she ram the car or was it a fender bender with all the stuff that was going on? Who knows? She was somebody who was known to them, they said, because she had published some stuff on social media saying, let's go F up these people or whatever. And, but what does that tell you? It tells you that ICE is scouring the internet, just like the UK cops, looking for comments and putting people on their list. Another thing that bothers me about this whole thing.
Starting point is 00:13:25 Yeah, watch your speech because they will come after you. And, I mean, we're not talking about J.D. Van saying they said something bad about Charlie Kirk, so get them fired. No, these are the DHS people who are scouring social media to try to put you on a list. So DHS said on Saturday in a news release that law enforcement, officers, quote, fired defensive shots at an armed U.S. citizen after multiple vehicles, boxed and federal agents who were patrolling Chicago this morning. So let's understand. Multiple cars are there, and they don't say that she pointed or waved a gun. They say they fired first in defense. Our brave law enforcement officers are rammed by vehicles. Now it's multiple
Starting point is 00:14:12 vehicles rammed, ram them, right? And boxed in by ten. cars. Well, did they shoot everybody? Well, they do the other people. Dozens of armed federal agents in tactical gear have been patrolling the city. Protesters have at times clash with law enforcement. In LA, the summer officers use tear gas and rubber bullets to disperse crowds during several nights of demonstrations. Well, I don't know if these were peaceful or not. This is newsweek. So they're saying the demonstrations are mostly peaceful. And again, it can go in one or two ways. ways here. Saturday morning federal law enforcement agents were conducting routine patrolling in a
Starting point is 00:14:52 Chicago suburb. I don't know that federal agents are supposed to be patrolling routinely. That's the whole problem, right? Where are the people? As I said before, there's been a couple of good articles on the New American, but I would think since they were warning about this 60 years ago. Support your local police, support your local sheriff, that they've been aware of the dangers of federalized, militarized police for a very long time. I mean, they ought to be screaming this, you know, a half dozen articles a day. There's enough to write about it. And we don't see that on the right. Recent protests and clashes of law enforcement in that area have led to dozens of arrests. The agents were, quote, rammed by vehicles and boxed in by 10 cars this
Starting point is 00:15:43 morning. One of the drivers who rammed the law enforcement vehicle was armed with a semi-automatic weapon, they said. The woman allegedly posted online, hey, to all my gang, let's F those mothers, don't let them take anyone. And so she was already on their list, they said, but they didn't know that when they shot her. It was unclear where the federal authorities arrested the woman after receiving treatment. She drove to the hospital and received treatment. but they don't say whether she was arrested or not. Homeland Security did not respond to any questions about the shooting. Isn't that interesting?
Starting point is 00:16:17 And neither did the Chicago police. The Chicago police were called and they said, well, we're not going to talk about this. We have no details to tell you. We didn't sort out what had happened there. We went there to control traffic. Authorities did not name the armed individual, but they said the woman had appeared in a bulletin last week
Starting point is 00:16:37 because of her social media. posts. They're putting out bulletins. Beyond the lookout for, right? So they're watching social media, just like the UK Gestapo. At least one person was arrested at the scene, according to bystanders. Elizabeth Ruiz, 51, said federal agents ram the back of a car driven by her son, Anthony Ruiz, after the shooting, after the shooting. The mother said the agents then detained her son, a 21-year-old U.S. citizen, and confiscated the car. I mean, the police confiscating a car that hasn't, have they charged him with the crime? This is the drug war that we've seen over and over again. Civilized that forfeiture.
Starting point is 00:17:20 They charged the car with the crime. So the car rammed into them. It wasn't even a way, Mo. How about that? They turned it all around, said the mother. She said she was on the phone with her son when the shooting began. When she arrived at the scene, agents took him into custody. They later told her he could be released Monday today. It was one of you guys that rammed my son. Why are you arresting him? She said. The Chicago police said officers responded to the scene to document the shooting and to control traffic, but they declined to detail what happened.
Starting point is 00:17:56 Chicago Police Department is not involved in the incident of this investigation. Federal authorities are investigating the shooting, said the police. So the federal authorities will investigate themselves. There's no separation of powers. There's no second guessing of this. It is what the federal government says. It is. End of story.
Starting point is 00:18:17 The Brighton part intersection quickly attracted dozens of protesters who approached, who stretched a block along the road there. The crowd grew to nearly 100 people, but it escalated as many of the agents left. Residents initially heckled the agents with a steady stream of criticism and antagonism. A young man was pushed to the ground by a federal agent, causing protesters to shout and tensions to rise. They come in, and this is all really a deliberate provocation the way that they're doing this. And you've probably seen by now we didn't play it because it's all visual. And we have a lot of people listen on the audio podcast. But there was one scene where a kid on a bicycle drives by, and he just yells an insult to these agents.
Starting point is 00:18:59 And they all start chasing them, all ten of them. You're not allowed to talk back to your masters. you look sideways at your masters? And he got away from all of them on the bicycle. So that's been making the rounds for a lot of people. He stepped in the street and the federal officer shoved him back in the most brutal manner possible, said one person. Agents then began throwing tear gas canisters into the crowd.
Starting point is 00:19:25 One person tried to grab a canister. The agents jumped on top of the individual. People were clearly angry, but they posed no threat. Federal agents put both the Chicago Police Department and all those people in danger when they didn't have to. They put people in danger, he stressed. They're now shooting at cars. These agents are 100% out of control. Agents have already fatally shot one person, Villegas Gonzalo, last month as he fled his car during attempted arrest.
Starting point is 00:19:55 DHS officials immediately claimed an agent had been dragged by the man's car. But in body camera footage, later obtained by the Tribune and other news organizations, the agent referred to his own injuries as, quote, nothing major, moments after he was, after he shot and killed the man. The H.S. and ICE are known to lie about the nature of their operations. Yeah, they all do. And, of course, they have a license to kill. They're double O7. Of course, now that Bezos has taken over the. MGM and the Bond franchise, he's going back and removing the guns from James Bond.
Starting point is 00:20:36 I guess he's revoked. Jeff Bezos has revoked his license to kill. I mean, it was all about that. Anyway, they just don't know what to do with these franchises when they buy them to their travels. It's amazing. Everything gets worse and worse. Lord of the Rings.
Starting point is 00:20:52 The same thing is going to be done with Narnia, I'm sure. We should rendition Gretager with. She should not be allowed anywhere near a film crew ever again. Detain her indefinitely. So now let's take a look at what the conservative side says, which is that's the approach from Newsweek. Let's take a look at what Zero Hedge and Fox and these people say, right? Because this is a war.
Starting point is 00:21:17 Both sides have conflicting statements. We don't know really what happened with either one of them. So this is the headline from Zero Hedge. The ICE agents were ambushed in Chicago. the armed attacker, a woman who was a U.S. citizen. Well, interesting, the armed attacker, that's an interesting phrase. They said that she had a gun. Where was the gun?
Starting point is 00:21:40 Was it in the car on the floor or whatever? Was it holstered on her? I don't know. Nobody has said that she attacked them with a gun. Nobody has said that she pointed the gun at them or that she fired the gun at them. And so a lot of this is the kind of thing that you'll see from the police after the fact. I'll just tell a personal story. We had, as I said, when I worked at Texas Instruments, the group that I was in, I was the American.
Starting point is 00:22:05 They had a German, a Japanese, a French guy, and had a lot of English people. So we had a lot of friends that we hung out with, especially the English. The German guy, Dietmore, spoke English, but the French guy didn't. And the Japanese guy, he was just constantly reading. He never talked to anybody as I was always. like in a book. Anyway, we had our British friends. One of them had his family, his brother and his parents, came to visit him in the U.S. And they aren't driving around in our friend's car. And it sounded, they were going under an overpass. And it sounded like somebody dropped something
Starting point is 00:22:46 on their car. They heard this bang. And they pull over and get out and look at the back of the car and they see a bullet hole. You know, they found out it was a bullet hole. But it was a hole about this big around. And they open up the trunk as the cops get there and there was a shootout that was happening. They had been a bank robbery and the police had followed the robber to an apartment complex where they had a shootout. They opened up the trunk and the cop sees the bolt there and he grabs and goes, that's not ours. And he walks away. I don't know if it was his or not. But you better believe that he's not going to tell anybody that it was theirs. If it was theirs. So Chicago police told officers no units will respond as protesters surrounded federal agents.
Starting point is 00:23:34 And again, this is Zero Hedge and Fox. Fox News is Bill Malugan, said they were surrounded by protesters. It remains unclear where the rejection was due to a shortage of officers or to a genuine refusal. So this article is about the fact that the Chicago police did not send a lot of officers there, although they did send officers there to report about the shooting and to control traffic. So again, the conservatives cast this as the feds were abandoned and thrown to the dangerous wolves that were there. The liberals look at this as the Chicago Police Department is covering up the federal
Starting point is 00:24:16 crimes. The truth probably is somewhere in the middle of those things, but we will not be able to find out what it was. So in Prigg versus Pennsylvania, that court case said that states could decline to help federal law enforcement. That's the non-commandeering decision saying that you can't force and compel people to help you. So they don't have to do that. But then the way that this is spun by the conservative presses, they were, you know, they don't have to help federal law enforcement, but they can't obstruct it. Today's sanctuary. jurisdictions have turned non-cooperation into active interference, allowing street gangs to block
Starting point is 00:25:01 ice. It's no longer federalism. It's nullification, said a Fox News reporter. Well, I'm all for nullification. I support nullification. Strongly support nullification. That's the most peaceful way to enforce the separation of powers. The federal government has become too consolidated, too powerful.
Starting point is 00:25:21 they were always merely an appointed agent for limited duty appointed by the states who retained the majority of their sovereignty as well as the people who did that that's what the 10th amendment says is what the 9th and 10th amendment says and nullification is the peaceful way to not have a war so the right wing media is pushing this really hard especially Fox so they went out and they said well you know the Fraternal Order Police, the National and the Illinois Fraternal Order Police, believe that when an officer calls for assistance, you answer no matter what. And so these were officers in distress. Were they?
Starting point is 00:26:03 Were they in distress? Who knows as far as that goes? But then the other issue is this U.S. District Judge Karen Emmergoot on Saturday basically put a temporary restraining order against Trump's imagined emergency. and said that the White House's justification for all of this stuff was untethered to the facts, quote-unquote. The injunction will remain in place until at least October the 18th pending further litigation. And so again, this is a Trump-appointed judge who takes this Constitution seriously. As people are talking about what has happened in Portland, for example, this is Nick Sorthor. he said DHS has employed Blackhawks over the ice facility in Portland as rioters get tear gassed and pepperballed by agents.
Starting point is 00:26:59 Well, again, that's not necessarily just a protest if they are fighting with it. Who knows how that started? And when they got the Blackhawks, they remember how when we used to talk about militarized helicopters, the black helicopters, remember how that used to be a thing and everybody, oh, these conspiracy theorists, ten-foil hat. Well, here it is. Black-Hodic helicopters. Following my wrongful arrest, said Nick Sotaur. Secretary Nome promised to surge additional DHS resources into the area.
Starting point is 00:27:30 That's kind of like the Afghanistan surge, right? It'll probably work out the same way. Looks like she's following through. He says, no mercy, all uppercase. Then you have Andy No. Is that your pronounce his name, NGO? I think it's just no. No?
Starting point is 00:27:45 Yeah. Andy non-governmental organization. Far left, he said. Far left, anti-government extremists have surrounded the ice facility in an attempt to storm the building. They're encouraged to get arrested for the cameras and will have immediate access to cash and free lawyers. So again, both sides are playing this PR game.
Starting point is 00:28:08 And both sides are escalating this and initiating force. I kind of say that, you know, when somebody is driving away and the police shoot them, that is not something I think is justified. So the judge, Emmergut, agreed that Oregon is likely to prevail, warning that Trump's legal approach could allow a president to deploy troops, quote, virtually anywhere at any time, unquote, thereby undermining the separation of civil and military authority. And to respond to that, Homeland Security says, the violence and the dehumanization of these men and women who are simply enforcing the law must stop. What about the violence and the dehumanization of the people who are. were sleeping their beds at 1 a.m. in the morning. What about that? I am absolutely against
Starting point is 00:28:55 SWAT team raids, no-knock raids, these dragnet raids of an entire building. Come on. How in the world can anyone support that? I just do not understand. And so the judge had more to say, Karen Imbergut. So she said in her decision, as soon as the Federalized National Guard deployed to Portland, the state of Oregon will suffer an injury to its sovereignty. She said, this country has a long-standing foundational tradition of resistance to government overreach, especially in the form of military intrusion into civil affairs. That tradition has deep roots in our history and found early expression, for example, and the constitutional provisions for civilian control of the military.
Starting point is 00:29:43 The Federal Convention of 1787, she quotes, said a standing armed military force with an overgrown executive will not long be safe companions to liberty, they said. And again, quoting Madison, I've said this many times, the means of defense against foreign dangers
Starting point is 00:30:01 have always been the instruments of tyranny at home. And that's what Trump is doing now. They're not even a means of defense for foreign dangers. They are dragging us into foreign wars one after the other. She said this historical tradition boils down to a simple proposition. This is a nation
Starting point is 00:30:20 of constitutional law, not martial law. Stamped that across that orange forehead of his. Defendants have made a range of arguments that have accepted, she said, risk blurring the line between civil and military
Starting point is 00:30:36 federal power to the detriment of this nation. So it's temporary restraining order will be in effect until October the 18th. Trump is expanding federal powers under the domestic terrorism directive. This is the new American. I covered this last week. Just to remind you, it was a national security presidential memorandum, this executive order.
Starting point is 00:30:56 It was called countering domestic terrorism and organized political violence. The directive orders federal agents to build a far-reaching law enforcement strategy to investigate and dismantle what it calls terrorism domestically. She said, this is violating the First Amendment, which protects speech and assembly. The fourth, which guards against unreasonable searches, and the fifth, which guarantees due
Starting point is 00:31:24 process. The memo's framing is selective. It casts dissent on the left as extremism while ignoring violence everywhere. And this is exactly what Biden did, right? And so both sides are doing
Starting point is 00:31:40 this, to demonize the other, to dehumanize the other, both sides are pushing us into a civil war. That's why they're doing this left-right dance between Trump and Biden and Trump again, to build up this tension. Both of these sides are doing lawfare and they are politically persecuting other people. And all of this, I believe, is deliberate by design to try to push us into a civil war. Don't follow them. Right? The lawfare on the left is now lawfare on the right. Don't get fooled again. No doubt left-wing violence is real, right?
Starting point is 00:32:20 It's a new American. The Antifa branded groups, though amorphous and decentralized, have been involved in riots and assaults. Some are manipulated by nefarious actors who profit from chaos, but it is wrong to frame political violence as a domain of the left along because, you know, we just had an Iraqi war veteran, open fire in a Mormon church. And we just had another veteran who just randomly shot up a waterside bar that was there. Trump is saying armed conflict justifies executing suspected drug dealers. Key word here is suspected even. You know, how long before he authorizes this on the streets of the USA? This is a reason.
Starting point is 00:33:07 And they're talking about him bragging about black. ships out of the water near Venezuela and international water. So he said that they were unlawful combatants in an armed conflict. Well, are we unlawful combatants? Have we declared a war against them? Have we followed the rules of engagement in a war? No, I would say that Trump and the people who push those buttons are unlawful combatants. This is no different, really.
Starting point is 00:33:42 Then what we saw that was exposed by WikiLeaks that nearly got Julian Assange killed because of the vengeance and the wrath of the federal government when he showed what they called it collateral murder where they waited for people to show up and they could see that they were reporters. They could see that they were medical staff and they opened fire on them and you could see what they saw and you know that it was just simply murder. And this is simply murder as well. He says, they say here that the reality is that Trump has authorized a military murder of criminal suspects who pose no immediate threat of violence. So far, Trump has ordered three of these attacks. Well, now it's four. He did more on the weekend. Again, these are attacks of boats that are not a threat because they turned around.
Starting point is 00:34:37 They didn't fire. And they don't know for sure. if these people were smuggling drugs. Now that stuff was determined ahead of time because they didn't, they didn't engage them, they didn't interdict them, which is the standard procedure. And you got people who were top military lawyers for the Army, for the Navy, all of them are saying this is absolutely unjustified. This is a very, very important precedent that Trump is setting,
Starting point is 00:35:08 and it's a very bad precedent, again, I'd say, I call them, President Trump. So Trump described these people as confirmed narco-terrorists from Venezuela, except there's no details on how they confirmed that. And he said that they were affiliated with a designated terrorist organization. Again, these are all just assertions without any proof, without any evidence. Contrary to Trump's implications that designation, that designation does not turn murder into self-defense. So what they're saying is even if this group was affiliated with a drug gang and even if they were carrying the drugs, which is why I said from the very beginning, we have a procedure for doing that.
Starting point is 00:35:52 And that procedure was still being followed elsewhere by the Coast Guard. This is not about that at all. It's yet another example of Trump flat out lying to people because he wants to start a war in Venezuela to take their oil. It's just that simple. This is just ruthless gangsterism. The State Department designation merely triggers the government's ability to implement asset controls and other economic sanctions under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, the AIPA and the Immigration Nationality Act, along with other statutes. Look, just like with COVID, his emergency declaration released money, just like if you were declared an emergency after a hurricane or a flood or something like that. it releases money. And so this designation of a terrorist group allows them to unleash sanctions
Starting point is 00:36:45 and to do other economic things, but it does not mean that it is a declaration of war. We can just start going out and randomly shooting people. According to a White House spokeswoman, Trump is delivering on his promise to take on the cartels and eliminate these national security threats from murdering more Americans. This will ultimately result in these same type of rules of the game being done here on American streets. I guarantee you, they'll be murdering Americans in another decade on the streets, if that long. That framing is logically, morally, and legally nonsensical, says reason.
Starting point is 00:37:22 The truth is that Americans like to consume psychoactive substances that legislators have deemed intolerable and that criminal organizations are happy to profit from that demand. You know, criminal organizations like the criminal intelligence agency, the CIA. They're some of the biggest drug gang in the world right there. And so then they talk about, well, what about alcohol? So the alcohol producers and distributors who supply a product today that has an estimated
Starting point is 00:37:52 178,000 deaths a year from alcohol today. By Trump's logic, they should be subject to the death penalty based on nothing more than the allegation that they were involved in the alcohol trade. the alcohol producers, distributors, retailers. There's obviously something wrong with an argument that would justify the execution of brewers, vintners, distillers, liquor store owners, and bartenders, based on their complicity and alcohol-related deaths. Even during national alcohol prohibition, the government did not treat bootleggers as murderers, even when they were smuggling booze in the U.S., which is, according to Trump's reasoning,
Starting point is 00:38:34 posing a deadly threat to national security. Yeah, the other thing was that they had enough respect for the Constitution that they passed a constitutional amendment, which underscores the fact that none of this United Nations war on drugs with its UN schedule for drugs. None of this stuff is constitutional. And folks, what reason is pointing out here is that you have a willing buyer and a willing seller. It is a spiritual issue.
Starting point is 00:39:03 It's a medical issue. issue, a spiritual issue, it's every kind of issue except law enforcement. Law enforcement has not worked for over 50 years. Was it now 54, I think? 71. Is that it? But law enforcement has failed for half a century. When you keep doing the same thing and expecting different results, you're the one who's crazy. This is a crazy, unconstitutional war on drugs. It's had a lot of deleterious effects to law enforcement to corruption to the judiciary but it hasn't stopped the use of any of these drugs and it never will it never will again it's the wrong tool for this problem I'm not saying that drug use is not a problem it's a big problem alcohol use is a big
Starting point is 00:39:54 problem as well and we realized that the prohibition wasn't the solution to it the current drug Prohibition regime is more severe in several respects. It still deploys the death penalty, though, only in rare cases. Federal law authorizes the execution of people who commit murder in the course of drug trafficking. It also notionally allows the death penalty for drug trafficking involving very large quantities. Those quantities are so large to be 300 times the amount that would trigger a mandatory 10-year sentence. But no death penalties have been imposed under these provisions. And it's not clear whether the death penalties would be considered to be constitutional or whether it would be considered to be extreme cruel and unusual punishment. Trump has made no secret, however, of his
Starting point is 00:40:45 desire to execute drug dealers, and he thinks he's found a legal way of doing that without seeking new legislation or going to the trouble of arresting and trying suspects. The trick he thinks is to equate drug smuggling with violent aggression, to define drug interdiction as an armed conflict and to treat suspected drug smugglers as unlawful combatants who can be killed at will, regardless of whether they're actually engaged in violence. Trump deemed his targets worthy of assassination simply because they allegedly were trying to supply Americans with politically disfavored intoxicants. And so calling them narco-terrorists is their game, the labels.
Starting point is 00:41:30 Jeffrey Corn, who was formerly the U.S. Army's senior advisor on the law of war, told the Times that Trump has not established the, quote, hostilities, unquote, required for a, quote, armed conflict against the U.S., because, as the Times dryly puts it, selling a dangerous product is different from an armed attack. This is not stretching the envelope, he said. This is shredding it. This is tearing it apart. Cardoza Law School professor said that Trump's policy utterly is unprecedented. He said the proper entirely feasible and precedented response would have been interdiction, arrest, and trial, which is the same response that was happening in other locales, because this has nothing to do with Trump's lie about drug trade.
Starting point is 00:42:23 It has everything to do with the fact that he wants regime change in Venezuela so he can steal the oil there. The Trump administration's summary execution and targeted killing of suspected drug dealers, by contrast, is utterly without precedent in international law. And he says what I said from the very first day. In fact, there is precedent for considering such attacks when committed on widespread or systematic basis to be a crime against humanity. Former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte is currently facing charges in the end. international criminal court. He's under arrest there for exactly that reason. What he did was an international crime against humanity. And what Trump is doing is the same thing in principle.
Starting point is 00:43:12 And now he hasn't killed tens of thousands of people yet, like Duterte did. But Duterte said, we've got to stop drugs. And we're going to do it by just executing people on the street. So if you think somebody is a drug deal, just kill him. And I'll excuse it. And so now he is standing trial for the murder of those people. Trump, however, is a big fan of Duterte, who likened himself to Adolf Hitler while urging the murder of drug offenders. During his first term, Trump bragged about his, quote, great relationship with Duterte, who he said was doing a great job, he said, and tackling substance abuse. Now Trump seems bent on copying Duterte's bloodthirsty example, and I wish somebody would
Starting point is 00:43:53 lock up Trump as well. Who will protect us from the so-called protectors? This is from the Free Thought Project. And of course, it's the Andrew Napolitano, Judge Napolitano story. And that is always the question, you know, who watches the watchers, who protects us from the protectors? As Madison said, because men are not angels, we need to have government. But because the government is made up of men, we need to be careful about how we proceed with this thing. That is why we have the rule of law. That's why we have the constraints against government that are in the Bill of Rights. It was Madison who stressed that.
Starting point is 00:44:33 And so, you know, President Trump quietly signing a presidential national security memorandum that purports to federalize policing, this is, again, not only unprecedented, but unbelievably dangerous and destructive to America, what Trump is doing. It's just another continuation of this. 9-11 COVID stuff to create a police surveillance state. Comments, Travis? Yeah. Real Jason Barker.
Starting point is 00:45:07 Good to see you, Jason. Hope you're doing well. A judge in Washington ruled Trump's use of National Guard unconstitutional. Time for an impeachment. Also, all these soldiers should refuse to follow unconstitutional orders. Yeah, absolutely right. Yeah. And as a Trump judge who did it, yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:20 Good for her. Do not obey people. We are getting real close to the biometric digital implementation, implantation. How is it we the people are accepting of this? Well, they have been conditioned to over many, many years. Guard, Goldsmith, good to see you, Guard. That's our national guard. The previous comment, how are people accepting this?
Starting point is 00:45:43 It's anything to stop these problems that they've created, any solution they give us, no matter how illogical of that solution must be something that we have to do in order to stop their problems. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, they create, they create its problem solution, yeah. And our National Guard Goldsmith right there. Exactly. Guard, Goldsmith says constitutionally allows for three forms of federal land control,
Starting point is 00:46:08 a 10 square mile area for a capital B territories, for a capital B territory C, military garrisons. Fed courts are not to be on state land. And if they are, they're under state control. How does it feel to be living in a period of some of the most lawless federal activity since FDR or Lincoln what a time to be alive feels like deja vu guard is what it feels like yeah be my valentine says in response to guard total chaos yeah franson yeah and francine says police not here to protect and serve since a long time yeah yeah nice of the storm
Starting point is 00:46:53 patrolling in full kit and weapons is not routine at least it has not been historically. That's right. Do not obey. Police today are order followers with zero moral aptitude, mostly from institution brainwashing. They do a good job of weeding out people that would question the orders.
Starting point is 00:47:12 Guard Goldsmith, unfortunately the judge didn't go far enough, not ruling it unconstitutional, but just saying the facts of the situation didn't support Trump going in. The Constitution forbids it without state invitation. Yes, yes. I agree. I agree.
Starting point is 00:47:25 It was, at least you put temporary restraining order on it. You know, she didn't have the guts to go full on head-to-head with Trump. But she pulled back enough that at least that's a good thing. I understand where she is. M-O-E studios, suspected drug dealers, bomb Pfizer then. And, of course, he's saying that from a military perspective, as in the president would issue the orders. on advocating that anyone in the audience
Starting point is 00:47:57 that we would bomb fire. If you got, you know, alcohol again, you know, 178,000 people a year die, there is, when you look at the VERS database, even with, you know, it was a Harvard did a study and I think they found that, if I remember correctly, it's 1% were all that were reported in the VERS database. And yet they actively discouraged it
Starting point is 00:48:19 like they've never done before. So if we look at that 38,000 as 1%, probably much less. less than that. That'd be 3.8 million people in the U.S. alone that were killed. And Trump thinks that Albert Borla is a hero. And the question is, why does Trump, why do Trump's people who understand what happened with this genetic code injection? Why do they still celebrate Trump as a hero? I cannot understand. Yeah, they refuse to see the truth. Don't frag me, bro. It says systemic corruption in the NYPD for over 30 years and going. Yeah, it was the NYPD that Frank
Starting point is 00:48:55 Serpico was part of. Yeah, that's right. The NYPD is full of bad guys. Don't frag me, bro. Mullen Commission, 1994, NYPD Corruption. Knapp Commission, 1972 NYPD Corruption. Frank Serpico, there. Even gave a date.
Starting point is 00:49:11 You know what Frank Serpico said. He said, every human institution is going to have good and bad people in it. It goes, the question is, can the institution, or will the institution, purge the bad people out? or will it close ranks around them and protect them, you know, because they're a cop? And he said, that's how the institutions go bad. And that's what we're seeing now. And we've seen this, one institution after this, not just the police,
Starting point is 00:49:35 the police are some of the worst out there and the most dangerous when they go bad. But we've seen this from one institution in our society after the other. That's why we're in a fourth turning right now because people have seen the corruption now for several decades, the corruption of people like FDR and others. says don't frag me bro also says then there is all the known factual corruption with LAPD CPD and LVPD the four biggest departments have systemic corruption what do you think this does to smaller departments especially when you consider how much criminal fired cops end up at other departments a Z beach goves on both sides they'd fund their own civil war that way no matter who
Starting point is 00:50:16 wins they come out on top yeah just our civil war will be just like all the wars that are has fought elsewhere where we're playing both sides of the game that's especially true of the drug war you know we're both sides of the you got the criminal intelligence agency the CIA the biggest supplier of that of course in Afghanistan the U.S. military was guarding the poppy fields for them while we've got an opium crisis going on here I wonder where they get all that stuff to make the opium from it's a mystery yeah energy woman 707 says our government is the biggest drug dealers they don't like the competition. Yeah, that's right.
Starting point is 00:50:54 Badass Uncle Sam. Good to see you. I hope you're doing well. Yeah, I've got an interview with Badass Uncle Sam later today. And we're going to go at it for an hour or two. Bad ass. Yeah. Yeah, he's down in New Orleans.
Starting point is 00:51:09 I saw him when we went to New Orleans once. The New Orleans accent is a very interesting one. Very, very interesting. Nollins. Constitutional carry, instead of deploying troops, will handle the situation better. That's right. It would fix the problem. Don't frag me, bro.
Starting point is 00:51:24 Government agents and useful idiots always take the violent path. Audi, MRR, the war on drugs, has nothing to do with fighting addiction. You're absolutely right about that. Don't. It'll never work. It didn't work with alcohol. It gave us Al Capone and all these different gangs. And when we do it for 50 years, instead of what was, it was less than 10 years, I think, of the alcohol prohibition.
Starting point is 00:51:48 But when you do it for 50 years, you get these international drug gangs. that are so embedded globally. I mean, when they talk about having an authorization for the use of military force against drug cartels, that is basically an authorization for the use of force and what was the number of 60-some-odd different countries, just one of the gangs, just the central law cartel. I think it was 64.
Starting point is 00:52:10 Yeah, and that was just one of the gangs. So basically, that's just a blank check to deploy the military anywhere you wish and say, I'm fighting drug gangs. I get to do what I want. Don't frag me, bro, says history has proven that tyrants do not return power, back to the people, peacefully. That's right. Defy tyrant 1776, Trump should be careful what he wishes for when he says drug dealers who kill people should be given death penalty, since his warp speed poison has killed millions around the world.
Starting point is 00:52:39 Yeah. Steve Ev's, drug dealer, Albert Borla, is exempt. That's right. He has special privileges. Brian Deb McCartney, then they have to off the entire CIA. do not obey don't have to commit an actual crime just be a dissenter and find yourself committed to prison as a terrorist absolutely right they'll rendition you they will have you off somewhere spirited away well when we come back we're going to hit a variety of topics
Starting point is 00:53:08 in the news but we're going to begin with this stuff with albert borla and fizer when we come back so stay with us folks we'll be right back has some interesting tech news as well there may be a silver lining in terms of the fact that even though you had some of these CEOs bought the hype and they started firing a bunch of people and said well we're going to replace them with AI they can't replace them with AI the problem is that people are being replaced not with AI but with H1B visas that's how they're replacing everybody and it's it's when we look at this what's going to happen when the stock market crashes because the AI bubble that's going to cost a lot of people that aren't just in tech sectors to lose their jobs we'll be right back
Starting point is 00:53:50 Stay with us, folks. I'm going to be able to be. I'm going to be. I'm going to be able to be. I'm going to be. I'm going to be. I'm going to be the I'm going to be the
Starting point is 00:54:40 I'm going to I'm going to I know I know I'm going to and I'm I don't know.
Starting point is 00:54:54 I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I know. You're listening to the David Knight Show. Hello, it's me, Volodymer 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.
Starting point is 00:55:42 I could dress better. And I could, if only David Knight, would send me one of his beautiful grey MacGuffin hoodies or a new black t-shirt with the MacGuffin logo in blue. But he told me to get lost. Maybe one of you American suckers can buy me some at the David Knight Show.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
Starting point is 00:56:12 to my various gala 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. Elvis. Ladies and gentlemen, the Beatles. And the sweet sounds of Motown. Find them on the oldies channel at APSRadio.com.
Starting point is 00:56:44 Well, welcome back. We're going to talk, this is just general news. We're going to be talking about the drugs that we're just talking about, the hypocrisy of Trump concerned about drug gangs while he hands billions of dollars to the pharmaceutical companies. And we're also talking about some COVID. COVID fraud, the PPP style. There's a lot of fraud around COVID.
Starting point is 00:57:05 I have to clarify what I'm talking about is the PPP, as well as digital ID in the UK, cropping up everywhere. Strategy over optics, Trump's most favored nation status on drug prices. This is from the Brownstone Institute. And again, that is amazing, you know, most favored nation status. Oh, that's great. We're going to get that now from Pfizer. Pfizer's granting this stuff out there, like there's some kind of a sovereign nation.
Starting point is 00:57:36 Actually, they got more money than most nations do. They're not $37 trillion in debt, so they got more money than the U.S. government does. Albert Borla, standing in the White House, beside Trump, stunned large segments of the public. The moment instantly became a lightning rod drawing condemnation and confusion from those who remembered the unresolved, and in many cases still unaccounted for devastation of the COVID-19 response. This is James Lyons Weiler, who says, My inbox, and those of others who have worked to expose the record, flooded with a single question, usually framed in rage or betrayal,
Starting point is 00:58:14 such as, what the F? This piece is not an apology, nor is it an attempt to launder history. We must hold multiple truths at once. Okay, stop right there. No, do not hold the idea that Trump is on your, side when you see this, okay? That is double-think. If you see it, the betrayal that this is, and you see the corruption that this is, then
Starting point is 00:58:41 don't try to explain this away like some kind of a 4-D chest thing, which is basically what he does in this article. He says, first he lays out the case against Pfizer and Borla. He said the 95% efficacy figure behind Pfizer's original mRNA vaccine that was marketed with urgency and without full transparency was a result of a methodological side of hand. This is soft peddling this in inexcusable way. You need to understand it was premeditated fraud, premeditated murder. This is mass murder that they'd practiced for 20 years going back to dark winter.
Starting point is 00:59:21 Don't try to sugarcoat this. Don't give me this. Mistakes were made. We were soppy. That's not what this was at all. so again he's not going to try to sugarcoat it well I think he did right there from the get-go he's sugar-coding it so I won't follow anymore with what he's got to say because at that point I'm done if you can't see this for what it is if you can't call it what it was and and when
Starting point is 00:59:49 we look at what is going on with autism this is an interesting article from children's self-defense they won't say this about Tylenol but they will kind of through the back door criticize this whole Tylenol narrative. They said, redefining brain injury as autism, this has been a long-term strategy to conceal vaccine harms. Because just like Tylenol,
Starting point is 01:00:12 this article outlines how they have used brain injury as a red herring to distract attention from the vaccine stuff. And that's a metaphor that I go back to. It's such a wonderful metaphor. The people who didn't like fox hunting in the UK. so they would wait in the bushes. And when they would see the fox go running by,
Starting point is 01:00:34 they would run out with the smelliest fish they could find, which was a red herring, evidently, and drag it across the trail to throw the hounds off, the scent. And that's what this calling autism, relabeling it as brain injury, or relabeling it as Tylenol given to pregnant women. That's what this stuff is all about. It's about a red herring to let the foxes,
Starting point is 01:00:57 the pharmaceutical companies in the vaccine industry. That's the Fox. And this is all being done by RFK Jr. And the Trump administration let them go free. For over a century, vaccination has been repeatedly linked to severe neurological injuries, including brain damage, with many modern studies showing a three to sevenfold increase in chronic, common chronic illnesses.
Starting point is 01:01:23 And let me just say, it's a much stronger case than that. I think one of the best examples, of this was that family that was here in Tennessee through the they had moved here I think from Illinois so they could homeschool the kids and freedom and things like that and they got divorced and as part of the divorce the judge who was very pro-vaccine says these kids haven't been vaccinated and at that point I think the youngest one was like eight years old or something and he says if one of your parents agree to catch up on these kids vaccines I'll give you custody of the kids. The woman's lawyer knew all this going in, so he was the one who basically brought that
Starting point is 01:02:03 up. So she gets custody. They take the kids to a doctor who foolishly gives them one shot after the other, because if you look at the vaccine schedule, they keep repeating the same vaccines for the same disease. I mean, how many times you have to get vaccinated in one setting against measles, right? None of that makes any sense, even by their own imaginary science fictional world that they operate in and so all you know they split it up for the young girl because she'd already had some allergic reactions to things but both of the boys got the full course both of them were sent to intensive care one of them got out in a few days and was okay but the youngest one when he came out he's so severely artistic that his dad has to change his diapers for him
Starting point is 01:02:51 he can't communicate he can't even do bowel movements anymore and so that was the youngest boy. If that was the only case, that would be enough to stop this vaccine schedule. That would be enough to show that autism can be caused by these vaccines. That is a smoking gun. They've never had a direct causal relationship with Tylenol or any of this other stuff. And again, the kids who are getting Tylenol after they've been born, they've also getting the vaccines. And so is a mother. The mother's been vaccinated while she was pregnant. They used to not do that.
Starting point is 01:03:30 It wasn't that long ago that they would tell pregnant women not to get vaccinated. Now they tell them that they must get vaccinated. To dodge this massive liability, all research into vaccine injuries. And just like they did with other things like Agent Orange was suppressed so that health authorities could claim that there was no evidence of vaccine harm. They always do that. They always do that. let's just not have any research. They did that with marijuana, medical marijuana.
Starting point is 01:03:58 Well, there's no studies that show it. Why? Because you guys haven't done any studies. The government doesn't fund it. Corporations aren't going to fund it. The government wants it prohibited, and corporations can't make money from it. And that's the way it is with all natural substances. The government can't make any money from it.
Starting point is 01:04:13 They won't do any studies, not our government. Another scheme was to redefine the brain injury as autism, rather than as encephalitis, for example. Previously, children with significant vaccine brain damage were referred to as mentally retarded. However, after a multi-decade campaign canceled the word retarded, they were instead diagnosed as autistic, a vague term which blurs severe and minor disability together, thereby effectively concealing the severe case from the public's awareness. And again, in that family, there was no question that that was severe. So getting back to the fraud, the other fraud, I mean, the fraud of not only giving all this stuff to Albert Borla, but following the UN agenda to lock us down, which was their plan to do that all along,
Starting point is 01:05:06 and looking the other way while people were being killed and cheering it as some kind of a breakthrough miracle. We also had the PPP nonsense. And here is a company that was supposedly a small business that was there as a gym or something. And this fitness company was just a front to collect PPP checks. Except, you know, one of the things that they've done, they did was they redefined what a small business was. And as a result of that, it benefited some of Trump's businesses. But as a result of that, more than 50% of the money, went to less than 5% of the companies that were out there, and a lot of small businesses
Starting point is 01:05:50 still went under. And I bring this up again, because I think this is going to happen yet again with the small farmers. Trump's tariffs are destroying small farms, as I reported last week, one out of every three farms in Arkansas going out of business. And so he promises that he's going to get around to giving them some money. But before he gives any money to the farmers, he wants to send more money to his pal running Argentina, Javier Malai. They already sent billions of dollars to Argentina. Argentina took the money and then they repaid us by cutting their tariffs to China and selling soybeans to China.
Starting point is 01:06:33 So China is buying zero soybeans from us now. But don't expect the small soybean farmers to benefit from this. I think it's all going to go to large corporations. the essential corporations, it's going to go to big ag, it's going to go to companies like Archer Daniel Midland. It won't go to the farmer down the street from you. And when you think about it, that actually is very detrimental to the small businesses,
Starting point is 01:06:57 small farmers. You know, when you give a ton of money to the competition, it's more than half the money is going to the big guys who are then going to be able to cut their prices just as we saw happen on a national scale. Yeah. It's a double whammy.
Starting point is 01:07:12 You know, not only do you harm them, But you give money to their big competitors, as if they needed more money. They've got Wall Street where they can operate at a loss for decades. I mean, it's like being able to print money with the Federal Reserve, the Wall Street gang is. But anyway, I think he's going to do exactly the same thing to small farms. This one company, they have fraudulently obtained $3 million in PPP loans, then attempted to obtain over another 4 million in PPP loans. They caught them, however, sentenced them to,
Starting point is 01:07:44 fraud and aggravated identity theft, sentenced to four years and six months. Meanwhile, in the UK, a bill to create a digital ID for children has only one reading in Parliament left to pass. This is coming from Expoise News, and they said, you know, it's kind of interesting because they're getting a lot of pushback from adults, so they're going to go to children. But the thing that is most interesting and most insightful, insightful about this article is that they've got an age of 13. And they said, so the justification that they have for this digital ID, and I've played you the clip that the globalist put together for Ukraine.
Starting point is 01:08:28 Ukraine 2030, the war is over. And we're now, we now won, and things are going to be much better because look at all these different things where government intrudes into your life. Well, it's going to be easier to deal with the government because you've got an app for that now. And so you're not trying to keep track of your physical paper and all the rest of the stuff. It's like, hey, just get the government out of my life. I don't want the DMV to start with. You know, I don't want a digital ID to do that or taxes.
Starting point is 01:08:53 That'd be great if the DMV could be with you everywhere you went. That's right. Or, you know, hey, you got the IRS here. And it's not enough that you pay taxes and you fill out the forms for them. Now you've got to get a digital ID or they won't work with you at all. They just send you to jail for not paying your taxes, that type of thing. So that's the way they're justifying this. So they said, to understand the government's latest moves in the UK, to hoodwink the public into accepting their enslavement and the enslavement of their children, we've got to start with why they say that we need to have digital IDs there.
Starting point is 01:09:23 They said digital IDs are required to, quote, make it easier to use vital government services and to send a clear message that if you come to the UK illegally, you will not be able to work. Well, of course, we understand that it's the UK government that has been facilitating this immigration. And so to make it easier to use government services, no, they're not actually serving you. They're kind of serving you the same way that a bull services account. Yeah, that's good. Go ahead and play that. That's good. We know the government is looking at digital ID cards at the moment.
Starting point is 01:09:58 How would that help prevent the situation that we're in now? Well, Kirst Dahmer, our prime minister, said we are looking at what other countries have done to bring in a sort of digital creditation. I think there's real, actually, benefits right across here from obviously dealing with illegal working. Seems like satire. Imagine, if your viewers imagine that they had one credential that would allow them to access all the different government services
Starting point is 01:10:30 and our public services do. I'm sure many of your viewers often tear their hair out with all the different numbers and passwords of the different bits of government that they have to deal with and I do Actually the regulations and taxes they're more
Starting point is 01:10:42 benefit here but you're not going to cut them are you? We've made a system completely unbearable haven't we? One route in as well as the benefits
Starting point is 01:10:53 it could have with illegal migration we're looking at that I think it is an interesting idea that other countries have taken forward and we want to learn from what they've done
Starting point is 01:11:02 yeah it's a globalist agenda is what she's saying with all that and of course in the way that they love to skirt the truth and they say well it won't be compulsory to get a digital ID but for some things like
Starting point is 01:11:17 dealing with the government which you can't avoid it will be mandatory so therefore it will be mandatory to get it. It won't be compulsory to get it but this will prevent any illegals from working or living in here if they don't have it because you will absolutely need it to work or live.
Starting point is 01:11:33 Yeah, yeah. It's over time this system will allow people to access government services, such as benefits or tax records. And this is exactly the same strategy that was followed by Bill Gates in India, with the odd horse system they put together. And one of the ways that works in terms of benefits is you have to impoverish the people to where they are desperate. They need money.
Starting point is 01:11:57 They need health care and things like that because they can't provide it on their own. Well, they're getting to that point in Europe, in the UK. The implied voluntary nature is a psychological, tactic that has been used over and over again. What is the aim of this flowery language? It's so that people don't resist the legislation or perhaps even view it as beneficial. It will be made compulsory. But here's what should raise red flags.
Starting point is 01:12:24 This is what I liked about this article. It said, is the consideration to include children 13 years and older. Parliament claims a digital ID is for public services to start a new job. or, for example, to buy alcohol. And they said, well, yeah, the thing is, none of those things are done by 13-year-olds. So why do you need to get a 13-year-old an ID to buy alcohol or drive a car or whatever? Plus, I mean, don't they already have things in place to prevent 13-year-olds from driving cars, buying alcohol, and getting jobs? You would think that you already have to show ID of some form.
Starting point is 01:13:05 This is just, let's get one ID so that everything can be surveilled under it. Well, yeah, they just don't want you carrying a wallet that has physical cards in it or something like that. They want you carrying a smartphone because that provides them a lot more surveillance, geospatial intelligence, and so forth as well. So I'll just put it all in there, you know, one smart idea to rule them all. So why not be honest and lower the age to include babies from the time they're born? It's because other legislation that is currently being pushed through Parliament will control those who are under 13 years old. Within a decade, every newborn will undergo whole genome sequencing, said the U.K. Telegraph. They're gradually and incrementally implementing a cradle-to-grave identity, surveillance, and control system for every single person using digital identities and DNA that they collect at the very beginning.
Starting point is 01:14:01 so free thought project has this article from the off guardian also in the UK and the guy says wait a minute something is off here and I love the contrarian thinking because he's looking at this and saying there's been so much pushback against this that maybe this is a setup he said you know it's kind of like when you are watching a murder mystery right and everything is falling into place so precisely it's almost like they've set this whole thing up to happen that way and you know that there's another shoe that's going to drop and that this whole thing was a pretense he goes the official announcement is possibly the least surprising news that there's ever been and he says and yet suddenly i find myself doubting the sincerity
Starting point is 01:14:48 and let me explain and then he talks about the the mystery the murder mystery whatever about halfway through you start to doubt to yourself wait a minute there's just too much evidence here the movie seems to be making it too obvious. The main characters are openly accusing your chosen suspect, and they're still an hour left. So they start asking, is he the fakeout villain? Will the twist be that he was wrongly accused? He says, I'm seeing resistance from quarters that I wouldn't expect, and I'm suddenly questioning the narrative because of that. He says, I remember COVID. I remember that COVID skeptics could barely get likes on Twitter, let alone get to go to question time in the Parliament or write columns for the Telegraph or the Guardian.
Starting point is 01:15:31 I know what it looks like when an agenda is being sold hard and no opposition is allowed. It doesn't look like this. Members of Parliament are opposing it from every single party, including labor. Labor mayors are likewise against it. Every single party in Northern Ireland is against it as well, with the First Minister calling it the ill thought out and ludicrous, labor ministers and Kier Starrmer himself. are being challenged in TV interviews with pertinent and reasonable questions. That never happens unless someone powerful wants it to happen.
Starting point is 01:16:06 It can't happen by accident because interviews are discussed and questions are vetted beforehand. A petition against the plan allegedly gained over a million signatures in 24 hours. Somebody created this 30-foot-tall sand art of circuit. Keir Starmer on the beach and the police were dispatched to remove it. Yeah, it was very impressive. It was Orwellian and very impressive artwork on the beach and they moved right away to give that a lot of exposure. He says, I'm surprised by the players that are on my team and it makes me wonder if the rules of the game have been changed. Maybe there is a bait and switch coming. It might be the reaction to digital ID will be such a defeat for
Starting point is 01:16:55 Starmer, that he resigns, perhaps causing a new general election, leading to a reform win, and Nigel Farage is prime minister. That seemed crazy a few years ago, but I can't shake the idea now. That would help to get them to restore confidence in the institutions, wasn't it? You know, you put Nigel Farage and reform in, and people are like, oh, that's good. We, you know, it's just like Trump getting in. Now we're safe. We don't really have to watch government.
Starting point is 01:17:23 We have to worry about what they're doing. that's the way this is done with conservatives and others and we've seen Farage who I really liked in years past we've seen him compromise on many different things recently so he could be their guy
Starting point is 01:17:40 it might be that Starmer immediately scraps a plan and this is held up as an example of him listening to the will of the people and the system working and so he says but and so strengthens him both of these possibilities account for the headlines hammering home hair starmer's apparently
Starting point is 01:17:58 cratering approval rating it's also possible that the UK will be used as a control group on digital ID those criticizing or blocking it will be shown up and embarrassed somehow maybe a terrorist attack will take place that could have been prevented if we'd only had digital ID or the next pandemic or some other global event will be shown to have done less harm in countries that had digital ID in place and were therefore able to respond more effectively. Yeah, all that kind of stuff. This guy's spot on. Or similarly to Brexit, the UK's lack of a digital ID will see us fall behind and contrived economic metrics of some kind that are then, in turn, used to excuse our deliberately sabotaged cost of living. However it unfolds, it just feels like there is too much
Starting point is 01:18:49 opposition, too much broadcast, and too much mainstream opposition, for this to proceed along the prescribed lines. There is something coming, some wrinkle is coming. But whatever does happen, I should be clear about three things. Number one, digital ID is still going to happen. A digital ID system is foundational for the Great Reset World. Plans for digital currency and 15-minute cities, and all the rest of it, rely on the keystone of digital. ID. They already exist in many countries around the world and will exist in dozens more by the end of next year. Number two, digital ID is still a very bad thing. This is not me flipping sides or going pro digital ID just because I don't like agreeing with Owen Jones, whoever that is. Not even I am that much of a
Starting point is 01:19:40 contrarian. And number three, we are still winning. He says this is not a black pill take. I'm not suggesting that all resistance to digital ID is fake and that we can't win. The opposite, in fact. If I'm right, what we're seeing is a response to widespread opposition. They move designed to harness and then to redirect the momentum of organic resistance. So his, like you say, it's not a black pill take. What he thinks is happening is that there really is resistances. People really understand what it is. And so they're trying to figure out how they can get behind it so they can move it in a different direction. That's what I'm warning against, I suppose, the possibility that we could be handed a quote-unquote win on digital ID that is immediately parlayed into something else to slingshot around
Starting point is 01:20:29 the moon and then back down to earth. Like when you're pushing against a foe who's pushing back and then they suddenly stop and you find yourself pushing against nothing and your apparent sudden victory destroys your control. You have to be aware of that even as you push. And he says, remember the battle of Hastings. Harold and his Saxons had the high ground and they were holding firm when a dozen Norman charges couldn't punch through. But when the Normans feigned a retreat, the Saxons, filled with the unexamined joy of victory, gave chase and abandoned the tactics and the position that had been winning them the battle. And then they lost the battle. In short, the Saxons were winning until they were sure that they had won. So I guess what I'm saying is,
Starting point is 01:21:16 stay on the high ground, keep the shield walled up, even if they retreat, because I just don't trust it. I think it's very sage advice, and we need to think about that in many different areas. Joe Rogan is raging. I have the Keir Starmer, Beachhart thing. So here's a picture of it, and here are the cops looking at it. Yeah, that's right. And yeah, look at that picture.
Starting point is 01:21:43 Scroll up again, look at that. So it says, 1984. but the eight is actually Keir Starmer as kind of a bust picture of him so that his shoulders are the lower part of the eight and his head is the upper part of it so yeah it is 1984 isn't it
Starting point is 01:22:00 Keir Starmer is a bust indeed yeah hair Starmer I think is a better way to Rogan the here's the petition for removing the digital ID which every time there's one of these unpopular things you see one of these petitions pop up and the response from the government saying yeah we're going to ignore that they have a thing in the UK well that's what they do here
Starting point is 01:22:23 with our regulatory agencies right Congress doesn't write the laws they tell the regulatory agencies that are unconstitutional and of themselves you write the rules and then they put it out for a comment period from the public they don't care what you comment on you have no control over that they might listen to of the industry executives because the corporations have bought a seat at the table with them. But you don't have a voice in any of this stuff. And you don't have any representation because you're representatives that have been elected, even though, you know, the elections are rigged.
Starting point is 01:23:02 You're theoretically representative representatives. They still call them representatives. I don't see any of these people that represent me. But anyway, they, they're not even. even pretending to play anymore. And when it all goes wrong, they can come in and act as the white knight. He's going to save everybody from these bad regulatory agencies and overturn it. That's the game.
Starting point is 01:23:29 Yeah. You can comment on what they do, but it's not going to change anything. So Joe Rogan is raging at media silence. What he calls the UK's Orwellian nightmare sure is. A free speech crackdown. As a matter of fact, you know, we have seen people arrested, as I point out, you know, for silently praying. The grandmother who was arrested,
Starting point is 01:23:50 she had a sign in an abortion clinic, said, I'm here to talk if you want. I'm not here to course anybody. Guilty of offering to talk to someone about abortion. Yeah, that's it. Yeah, you're guilty of trying to talk to someone, offering to talk to someone about abortion. You're not screaming at them.
Starting point is 01:24:08 She's standing there silently with a sign. You want to talk about your circumstance? I'm here to talk if you want. No, that's not allowed. So Joe Rogan has blasted the media and the leftists for ignoring a massive crackdown on free speech and a move toward total dystopian surveillance in the UK while focusing instead on Jimmy Kimmel being suspended for a few days. He said, this is an Orwellian nightmare coming to life right in front of our face. And of course, you know, they work in each of these countries.
Starting point is 01:24:36 They are refining their tactics because this is a unified global approach, just like the pandemic was and the pandemic lockdown. and the vaccine passes and all the rest of the stuff. You're seeing a complete total attack on one of the most fundamental principles of the Western world, which is the ability to express yourself, said Rogan. He said 12,000 people arrested by the police in the U.K., the same place that just implemented digital ID. No one is flinching. No one in America is freaking out about what's happening in the U.K. at all.
Starting point is 01:25:08 Well, you know, J.D. Vance went to the U.K., and he freaked out about it. And then he came back and did it himself. pushed it himself. Yeah, we don't want anybody protesting against what a foreign country Israel is doing. So let's punish the universities if they allow that to happen. It's all predicated on the back of, on the back of out-of-control mass illegal immigration here, as there, with the leftists using the crisis created by the previous conservative government and amplified by Harris-Gabal in an attempt to roll out or well-in-style surveillance and control.
Starting point is 01:25:45 That's exactly what it is. So it is really an unforced error that is part of this. But you've got to wonder when you look at Trump and how he's handled or mishandled so much of this stuff,
Starting point is 01:26:04 whether it's the military meeting that they set up or the Jeffrey Epstein documents, This is an interesting back and forth between a congresswoman who was a Democrat and Mike Johnson. Listen to what she has to say about Trump. He calls him unhinged, and Mike Johnson agrees. The president is unhinged. He is unwell. If a lot of folks on your side are, too, I don't control.
Starting point is 01:26:34 That performance in front of the generals, that is so dangerous. He doesn't disagree. He's a whole lot of people on your side are, you know. It's going around. That kind of reminds me of the thing with Madeline Albright. You know, are you upset about the fact that you killed a half million kids with your sanctions? Oh, it was worth it, she said. So here he is.
Starting point is 01:26:57 Trump is unhinged and he's unwell. Yeah, well, a lot of people on your side are, too. Y'all aren't very hinged either. Yeah, that's right. So Salon, which is anti-Trump, of course, the writer argued that a deep and destabilizing Fisher has opened within the Trump administration over how to control the narrative about the pedophiles and Jeffrey Epstein. She knows that while the White House has tried to project unified silence or denial that
Starting point is 01:27:31 the Epstein files even exist, recent statements from within Trump's orbit expose the narrative as fractured, primarily this interview that was done with Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnik, who described Epstein as the, quote, greatest blackmailer ever. In that same interview, Lutnik claimed of Epstein's approach toward his associates, he'd tell him, get a massage, get a massage. And then what happened in that massage room, I assume, was on video. So in both this case of Lutnik and Mike Johnson, these people are trying to be. sycophants to Trump, eventually the truth leaks out in a kind of inadvertent way, isn't it? Those remarks from a cabinet official, closely tied to Trump, represent a direct
Starting point is 01:28:18 break from earlier public denials that any compromising material or client list existed. And, you know, they want to now say that there wasn't anybody that was being blackmailed. And Lutnik said, well, you know, obviously we know that he's blackmailing people. And we know he was doing it for intelligence agencies. Mossad, CIA, so forth, if there is any, if there is much space between those two, I don't know. Lutnik made a complete, unforced error with his revelation. Wired magazine told NBC News and as a sitting cabinet official and the former neighbor of Epstein, and he lived right next door to Jeffrey Epstein, New York City.
Starting point is 01:28:56 The secretary's story places him at odds with a public posture of the Department of Justice and FBI officials. It seemingly backs up attorney-duty. General Pam Bondi's initial claim of an Epstein client list, while simultaneously undermining FBI director Cash Patel's conflicting testimony that no credible evidence of blackmail or client list exists. Well, Lutnik evidently knows that's not true, and you know that's not true, and you know that they're all liars. All these people are trying to excuse this. Lutnik's interview presents a significant narrative jolt because it comes from inside the Trump orbit and directly conflicts with the administration's public claims about the Epstein files.
Starting point is 01:29:39 Lutnik's comments make it clear that the Trump-Eptstein connections will not be going away anytime soon. That's right. And again, Mike Johnson can delay this stuff, but he can't hide the truth forever. It will come out. He's delaying the seating of this new Democrat congresswoman who was obviously going to move to release us. They have the votes with that one special election that just happened. And Mike Johnson is still playing games. I mean, he shut down, Congress is going to be off
Starting point is 01:30:13 for all the month of August anyway. He gave him an extra week so that they couldn't run this vote and get people on record, either guarding the pedophiles or else coming after them. And now he's still trying to delay it. A couple more days by trying to wait to seat this representative so they can't have this vote to discharge this this motion to release all these different papers so it's truly amazing the lengths they're willing to go to for this the obviousness of it yeah they're very rarely this in your face about it yeah that's right and so you got to ask yourself how bad must it be it's got really bad the political cost that Trump and the GOP is willing to incur on this it has to be hugely damaging because
Starting point is 01:31:02 otherwise it would make absolutely no sense for them to do this. This isn't just awkwardly done. This is premeditated and it is a hard stop on all this stuff that he promised to show. That was one of the things that he was going to show. Remember, he was going to shut down all the pedophile rings and all the rest of this stuff. So, yeah, it is another one of those moments, just like Albert Borla, where maybe the MAGA people figure out, wait a minute, is he the bad guy? You know, just like that British comedy routine.
Starting point is 01:31:34 Are we the baddies? Hans, are we the baddies? We've got skulls on our uniforms. Are these the bad guys? They've got the pedophiles on their side. Yeah. So, you know, as we're talking about the First Amendment, we've got some Muslims who have a different take on that, don't they, Travis?
Starting point is 01:31:48 Yeah. Their understanding of the First Amendment doesn't exactly jive with the actual First Amendment. They thought that the First Amendment allows them to commit vandalism. Yeah, and arson. And arson. Yeah, so apparently the First Amendment to them means I get to destroy your stuff and there's nothing you can do about it. That's right. But this happened in Texas.
Starting point is 01:32:08 It was a church in Uylus, Texas, where they went in. They decided that they were going to put an expletive on their sign because they don't like Israel. The church had a Israeli flag flying, so they decided to spray paint F Israel on their sign instead. And I don't get the church showing a flying flag, you know, of a foreign country. And personally, I don't even think you should be flying an American flag at the church. I went to church one time and it was Veterans Day. And so they did a couple of worship songs. And then they start doing every branch of the service.
Starting point is 01:32:47 This is a big church and they had an orchestra and stuff. And so they start recognizing each one of the branches. and so they have anchors away from the Navy. If you're Navy, stand up and come up here. We want to come up on stage, blah, blah, blah. And they go to the Army, casons go rolling along and so forth,
Starting point is 01:33:01 you know, every branch of the military. And I just got up and walked out. It's like, I'm not here to worship the damn government. And if you are, then we're not in church. And that goes double for any foreign government that is out there that is committing genocide. And you've got 40% of American Jews now say that what's happening in Israel,
Starting point is 01:33:22 is genocide. It is. You can't avoid it. And so I don't understand that with the church. They should be upholding Christ, not a foreign political organization. But the Muslims, just last week, Travis, we had the story that he had some guy who had, he was in front of, what was it, the Turkish embassy or something. He had, he was the Turkish embassy, yeah. He had, he was descended from Kurds as well as from Armenians. I thought you were going to say way. Well, it was, he had a, they had a way with them. They had a genocide with them. And so both of these ethnic groups have been attacked by the Muslim Turks. And so he was protesting at the Turkish embassy in the UK. And he wasn't even burning a Quran. But this guy comes up to him and stabs him. And then two other Muslims ran up and start kicking him on the ground. And the judge said it was all justified. So I can understand these guys would think. that if they see a sign that they don't like on a church, then they're justified
Starting point is 01:34:26 to destroy the church building as well as maybe burn it down. Well, the judge disagreed. I mean, that's much less harmful than stabbing someone. If that's free speech to stab someone, then surely burning their church down. You have to understand, they were severely provoked, I believe,
Starting point is 01:34:44 as how the judge phrased it. I understand you're severely provoked. You poor man. You're such an upstanding citizen. And, of course, this is the results of our horrendous foreign policy and the results of our horrendous immigration policy coming home to roost. Either one of these on their own would be bad enough, but together they result in a nightmare scenario. We export violence and destruction across the globe, and then we allow any group from these places we have destroyed to come back into our country. And they bear grudges, and they rightfully bear grudges against us.
Starting point is 01:35:19 yeah this is just a terrible terrible scenario diversity is not our i thought the penalty was interesting too because um the government gives them a ten thousand dollar fine that goes to the government uh the church they damaged got seventeen hundred dollars this is another thing that's always been a pet people in mind against you and you alone have i sinned yeah against the the the system of justice that we have here you know in mosaic law uh you know you know You didn't pay a fine to the state or to Moses or whatever. You paid restitution to the victim. Why is it that we don't have victim restitution?
Starting point is 01:35:57 In many cases, the victims get zero, and they levy a fine that the government gets the money. So here, you know, the government gets five times, more than five times as much as the people who were harmed by this. Yeah, the victim has the crime committed against them in there wrapped up in a court case for who knows how long. Yeah, that's right. So, court case is never a fun thing. Even if you win, it's a miserable experience. I know, I'm sure you've all heard the saying, but I've heard it all my life. You don't take someone to court to, you know, get justice.
Starting point is 01:36:32 Generally, it's, you know, because it's going to be good for you. You do it because, you know, it's the right thing to do. You feel strongly about it. You're not going to get a giant judgment. You're not going to get paid out of it. You're going to be miserable the entire time. It is something that you have to do. You're not going to get justice or, you feel.
Starting point is 01:36:48 compensation. No. You're just trying to punish the other person. And you wind up punishing yourself as well. Now, we also have a tech billionaire, of course, defending the massive H-1B labor pipeline, because that's all the tech billionaires do. He's warning that Trump's reforms will backfire. And I'm continually sick of this rhetoric because they act like, well, Americans are stupid. They don't know how to do this. Remember when Musk and Bybake the snake, we're talking about that, the two other more in total agreement. We need these immigrants. Yeah, these Americans are nothing. It's like, yeah, well, what about the country that you came from? You're so great.
Starting point is 01:37:30 Why isn't it a better country? It's also important to point out that it's generally Americans that built all these systems. Yeah. Whether it's the Internet or just about everything that modern people enjoy, it's Americans or generally Europeans. some of these countries. People are not interchangeable. They are not just, this is an economic zone where you can just pull out all the parts
Starting point is 01:37:54 and put in new ones and it will be the same. People groups want different things and they achieve different things differently. If everyone was exactly the same, everyone would have invented the car in the airplane at the exact same time, but they didn't because people groups achieve different things.
Starting point is 01:38:10 Yeah, different cultures. Different culture will have a different approach to it. And it also is one of these things. It was a big deal. when I first started working in engineering there was a book that went around called The Mythical Man Month and so they would always talk about projects
Starting point is 01:38:24 when they're specking this stuff out how many man months is this going to take us oh well it's going to take a couple of years with the personnel we got here we'll hire a bunch more people and it's like that doesn't necessarily help because again you've got a corporate culture just like you're talking about in general
Starting point is 01:38:40 the culture in the US so you've got this corporate culture the people got to come in they've got to get assimilated into this project into this culture. They've got to get up to speed. And there's a lot of other things. There's the overhead involved if you've got a larger group of people that you've got to move around. So the whole idea that you're going to be able to measure this stuff in terms of man months needed, which is just a fallacy. And it's the same type of thing that's really coming from
Starting point is 01:39:03 the H-1B visa. We need more bodies in here. And they're not looking qualitatively at who they're hiring, are they? No. And you can see this in every sector. What has gotten better in technology since the 90s when the H-1B visa stuff really kicked off when it kicked into high gear can you name anything we've got more technology but it's not better the user interfaces on programs have gotten worse the capabilities of them have gotten worse I encounter more bugs than I ever did before we've got an article coming up the guy who coined the term and shitification which is you know when to look at this and it's like why doesn't the phone why is it working more poorly than it did before.
Starting point is 01:39:47 The user interface is worse and all that's going to. And it's happening across the board. And as this technology ages. It's everywhere in every aspect, whether you're importing, I mean, it's not even necessarily that you're importing H-1B workers. It could be as simple as the DEI policies. You can see it in things as meaningless as video games. There was a massive push over the last decade to bring in more, you know, queer gamers
Starting point is 01:40:11 of color. and the games are horrendous. They cannot make good games anymore. They are physically incapable of doing it, and it just gets worse and worse. You can see it in every aspect of life that these policies simply result in worse outcomes for everyone. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:40:31 Well, you know, one of the things that really was like rubbing salt in the wound was this billionaire whose name is Maritz, and he's highly connected to Trump as donor and the rest of this stuff. He reinforced his point, by saying warehouse workers, account managers, brand specialists, and dishwashers are the kind of jobs that Americans hold. And so what he's saying is that they want the foreign workers to come in and take the jobs as biochemists, software engineers, and other high-skill positions, while Americans are concentrated in lower-level work. You know, that's a job for you. You're an American.
Starting point is 01:41:05 You need to be a dishwasher. We're going to bring this guy in to be the CEO of Google. Yeah. And of course, part of that is also that when you bring someone in from the outside, they have no loyalty to the country. They have a loyalty to the person paying their salary. They're not going to question what you ask them to do. They're not going to sit there and think, is this something that will benefit the country? Is this something that is good for people? They're going to sit there and think, this guy is paying me a million dollars or more a year. Whatever he wants, he gets. But I think you find that with Americans as well. You know, I've seen this over and over again, what people will do for a job. I mean, we're just talking about the police, you know, that same kind of attitude as they're in engineering as well. They'll look at it and they'll say, you know, okay, so we're developing a weapon system here that's going to be used against civilians and all this. But that's okay because it's a tech problem and I'm getting paid a lot of money, so I'll do it for you.
Starting point is 01:42:02 Yeah, I think you can't, you will see this in the general populace, but there may be a consideration of, well, you know, do I want to live in a country like this? Whereas this person, they have no loyalty at all. There's not even going to be a consideration. You'll occasionally have a whistleblower, you know. But if somebody has no interest at all in the country, you know, it's like, well, that's fine. And, of course, the British Empire knew that. That's why they came in and they would put, like in India, for example, the top of the bureaucratic structure that would rule India from the British Empire.
Starting point is 01:42:33 Those would all be Brits, right? But then they would fill the entire civil service on down with fellow India. so that that would tamp down resistance to it from the population. You're represented in government. Is that wonderful? Yeah. So, well, the other thing, too, is a qualitative issue. Merritt claims that undergraduate degrees from Eastern Europe, Turkey, and India are, quote,
Starting point is 01:42:55 every bit as qualified, unquote, as American degrees. And W&D writes, that does not stand up to global data. In the OS World University rankings of 2026, U.S. institutions dominate the top tier. MIT is ranked number one for 13th consecutive year, and over 40 U.S. universities are in the top 200. By contrast, India's highest-ranked school, IIT Dully, sets at spot number 123. Most Indian universities fall much lower. I've also commented on this before, but India has a massive problem with degree mills. Basically, you pay, you know, $1,500 and they just manufacture a degree.
Starting point is 01:43:38 There's all kinds of fake universities, and this is a major problem. And that would explain why they said studies show that Indian engineering graduates, approximately 94% of them, lack the skills required for employment, with only 4.77% able to complete a basic programming task. So there you go. They engage in this sort of thing where they get the fake degree, and then wherever they get hired, they start trying to learn as much as they can on the job. Oh, well, I need to do this.
Starting point is 01:44:04 Well, I'll watch some YouTube tutorials on it, and I'm sure I can fake my way through it. fake it till you make it yes which does not you know there are certain jobs where I'm sure that's possible they're not extremely complex things you can learn as you go I don't want engineers doing that I would prefer if the guy whether it's an electrical engineer or a civil engineer building a bridge I'd prefer if you knew what you were doing before you got there that's right so you know again the US has seven of the top 10 universities worldwide India's best performer is ranked in the 201 to 250 band, with a majority of them falling below 600. So there's 50099 other universities that have a better record. I know I pick on India a lot. I don't have a problem with Indians specifically. I think if they want their culture, however they want their culture, they're entitled to
Starting point is 01:44:57 have it. Well, I have a problem with the government that's doing that. And Mexico is doing the same thing as well. They want those payments sent back. So the government is aiding and abetting this. Yeah. It's actually, we covered this, but that's a reverse colonization is really what it is. It's a specific part of India's economic plan to export their workers other places and have them send millions, billions of dollars back. That's right. That's right. Again, I think whatever culture India wants, Indians are entitled to their own culture. If China wants a different culture, they're entitled to that. I don't want to export American culture to everyone. I think different people groups, as I've said before, deserve to be governed how they want to be governed.
Starting point is 01:45:38 Unless we need to destroy the country and rebuild it in our image, right? A little false flag here, a little coup there, a little color revolution from time to time. Yeah, that's right. Well, we already mentioned this briefly, but Amazon is deleting the... Yeah, pull that picture up, Lance. There you go. There's a couple of bond posters. They got the arms crossed and they're holding it up there.
Starting point is 01:46:01 And instead of having a, you know, his pistol. Walther P.P.K. Usually, though, it's like a Luger. It's, yeah, I believe the newer ones, it's a Walther PPP, and the other ones, I believe it was a Lugar of some kind. I'm not a bond expert. Yeah, it's interesting. If you look at the logo, see, there's Golden Eye and Dr. No. If you look at the logo underneath it, 007, and they use the seven as a gun.
Starting point is 01:46:26 So they couldn't get it out everywhere. And the whole point is that this is a spy who has a license to kill. I mean, the whole point was that they were trying to legitimize and romanticize assassinations and things like things. that. They have a license to kill, but does he have a license to carry? Oh, you got a license for that. That was a good point, Lance. Does he have a license to carry?
Starting point is 01:46:46 Yeah, it's, of course, and this is insanity from Jeff Bezos and Amazon because they bought MGM studios. It reminds me of when all the tech companies went in and removed the gun emojis from the smartphones, because that was what was causing all the shootings, of course. That's what the problem was. They replaced them with squirt guns and ray guns. different things like that. And now with the Zionists takeover of TikTok,
Starting point is 01:47:11 you were just telling me, Lance, that they removed one of the emojis off of TikTok too, right? They had people who were, if they wanted to refer to Jews, they had a juice box. And so now they have removed the juice box emoji. These people think that they can control speech. They just don't get it. No matter what you do, people will find a way around it.
Starting point is 01:47:34 So Amazon bought MGM for eight and a half billion dollars wow so now they're going to run this franchise into the ground we'll see what they do with uh briefly mentioned it but just every single franchise gets worse and worse it's just absolutely incredible i was never that big of a star wars fan i liked the original three movies i think they're good but they i would you know i wasn't around when they were coming out so they didn't have that massive cultural zeitgeist impact on me i just thought they were good movies i like the first one, a lot, second one, and then the, uh, the third one is like, no, the EWox. Yeah, I've never liked the EWOX. Every time the EWOX trip on screen, it's like, come on, Storm Troopers, you can do it.
Starting point is 01:48:17 I mean, it's obviously, uh, kids and costumes or something. It was a, I have always hated the Ewox. I have an innate response to when someone is trying to put something cute in front of me to dislike it. I like children. I like kids. but this corporate idea of just, oh, look, it's Baby Yoda. I want to punt Baby Yoda into the stratosphere. Get that thing away from me. And the execution was inexcusably bad. It was like the monkeys in 2001 who you can see the zippers on the back.
Starting point is 01:48:51 Sometimes. There's just no excuse like that. George Lucas, people have pointed out, he needs someone to tell him no. He needs someone steadying there to be like, you know, George, maybe not. Yeah. you could see it just like Trump yeah you could see it he went he lost it completely with the prequals he had no one there that could tell him no because he was George Lucas and he got to do whatever he wanted in the prequels I love the prequels just because of the time they
Starting point is 01:49:16 came out I was young I've got a lot of nostalgia for them they're not good movies though there's a there's a million video essays that have explained what's wrong with them well they're great when you compare them to the newer stuff oh yeah comparatively to the new trilogies and movies they're fantastic but there's still not good. They don't stand on their own. Yeah, that's right. And then we got Scott Pressler. Before we move on to the next story, I wanted to point out, there's
Starting point is 01:49:41 one of these posters where they left his holster, but removed the gun like Sheriff Woody. They wooded him. Yeah, Sheriff Woody. Yeah, that was always a sticking point with us with Toy Story, as much as we love Story Story. The fact that he had an
Starting point is 01:49:59 empty empty holster, and they even made fun of that draw. You know, when he does it with an etchuscal. Oh, you got me. But, yeah, because I went to great lengths to get Western guns for you guys. It wasn't easy to find them. Even in the early 90s, it wasn't easy to find guns like that.
Starting point is 01:50:18 So, yeah. Everyone loves a six-shooter. That's right. I would love a cult single-action army just for the historic, the historicity. Historicity of it, historicalness of it. But those are... Some people would get hysterical. They are ridiculously expensive.
Starting point is 01:50:33 Yeah. Not going to... Well, we got one with no firing pen than I put in your room when you were a kid. Anyway, the... You were saying, Scott Pressler. Scott Presser, you talk about losing the plot. This is as bad. The GOP is as bad as Amazon when it comes to this.
Starting point is 01:50:48 Scott Pressler is a raving homosexual that the GOP wants to use him as an activist everywhere. And he's out saying, the biggest hurdle is getting Republicans to vote in every election. We need big, beautiful turnout, he said. I was amazed by this. I didn't realize the key to win. was getting more votes than the other guy. This is unheard of game theory. This guy's breaking new ground.
Starting point is 01:51:10 Well, he talks about how there are 30% of Pennsylvanian hunters are not registered to vote. And I'm sure that sending them a homosexual shoulder length there is going to motivate these guys to vote GOP, don't you think? That along with the Epstein files, that should do it. I'm sure they can't wait. Come to the GOP. We've got pedophiles. We've got homosexuals. Now what?
Starting point is 01:51:32 in a few years, we'll be transing your kids, too. Yeah, that's right. That's how it goes. This is Big Tent GOP, guarding our pedophiles. And this is always my criticism of Charlie Kirk and Turning Point USA. He would do the same thing. Not with Scott Pressler necessary, but here's Breitbart News doing an interview with this guy, Scott Pressler.
Starting point is 01:51:56 And, you know, you had Charlie Kirk with a culture war, and he had another guy, it was a black guy and he was it wasn't just one event uh this guy was part of their speaker crew and he was on the website the entire time and uh so you know people challenged him said exactly how has it help us to win the cultural war or spiritual war when you are making a virtue out of having somebody here because they're homosexual you're showing how open and how big the tent is of a GOP politics and again you want to make this about politics instead of about family values that's what you do and so this is again, just they're keying this up to lose.
Starting point is 01:52:39 And it couldn't happen to a nicer group of people at this point. The real question is, what does it matter? If this is what the GOP achieves, who cares? It doesn't mean anything. I have no interest in electing a group of slightly less Democrat Democrats. I'm not going to vote for the lesser of two evils, especially not when they're So, so slightly less evil. Well, the thing is, for me, as I've said many times, and this is another example of it,
Starting point is 01:53:10 the Republicans are more Democrat than Democrats of my youth, right? It's, I mean, everything that, everyone has gone insane over the last decade. Democrats have turned into full on Marxists. Yes, you'll hear them say just being moderate, a moderate Republican of today, not of, you know, 10 years ago, 20 years ago, is a fascist, which is, I mean, some of them maybe, but it's utterly ridiculous in the fact that you'll have these, you know, your standard Christian Republican, that is, as a general rule, far too soft on everything, in my opinion, and they are considered, you know, this abhorrent fascist monster.
Starting point is 01:53:52 Yeah. So a good article from J.D. Hall, and he said, cowardice. And he said, cowardice is I actually called out at the end of a revolution. as one of the upsetting sins. And he goes, I think it is what characterizes the Christians in America today as a cowardice because you don't want to take things on head on. You know what? I have no, I don't play this game of lesser two evils.
Starting point is 01:54:14 I'm done with these evil people, both parties. I have no interest in either one of them. They need to be opposed. They need to not be supported for any reason, not even as a pullback. That's the way I feel. Yeah. And if we do that enough, perhaps we would be able to find other solutions outside the political sphere. Yeah. And of course, as you pointed out, there is no hope in Washington. The amount of money it takes to make a run at anything that will land you in Washington is an astronomical sum. The general population is not going to make an impact there, but you can make an impact in your local elections. You can find out who is running and who actually may represent your interests.
Starting point is 01:54:58 Yeah. And then they get swamped by out-of-state money. Yeah. Like we had here with Frank Nicely, who again, he passed away recently this year. He was a very, he was probably the best politician we had in the United States, as far as I'm aware. And he worked very, very hard for the people of Tennessee. Yeah. He was a solid guy. Yeah, a solid guy.
Starting point is 01:55:21 And his family is very, very nice. They're wonderful people, and I'm so sorry for their loss. So if you have someone like Frank nicely and, you know, they're few and far between, do what you can to keep them in there because they're needed more than ever at the local level. And he was not just a straight up guy, but he also knew how these guys played the game too. You know, he knew that when he was going to go against them, one of the things as a farmer, he knew what they were doing in terms of chicken. He said they'd load them up with arsenic to make them gain weight because they'd sell the chicken. by the weight and so he said he tried to expose that and he told me some of the things that they did to him when he tried to expose that his downfall i think was trying to stop out of state
Starting point is 01:56:06 money and these other politicians there in the state legislator they're getting their bread buttered that way so that bill did not pass you don't mess out of state money got him out yeah so they put up a an avatar for them yeah whatever that guy's name is he's completely forgive. I've never seen a race where somebody put up a website. They tell you zero about what he does for a living now. They tell you zero about his history. Nothing about his family. You know, usually that's where they start. He sure is a warm body, isn't he? Usually they get a story about how, you know, what they've been doing and how that uniquely qualifies them to be a representative or something. This guy was just anonymous practically. He had never done anything. He'd never appeared in the public eye before.
Starting point is 01:56:52 And then all of a sudden, the Walmart heiress is granting him millions of dollars. He had no policies and he had no background. This guy's just put in place. And he was running the most dishonest shill campaign I've ever seen. But anyway, enough about Frank. Yeah. And it's sad to see that happen here. I had really high hopes.
Starting point is 01:57:14 We have another article here. Have we passed peak social media? And I thought this was an interesting article and I was excited reading it. But they bury the lead. So I'm going to clue you in before you guys get too excited. They said social media usage has gone down. It's gone down. Across the board.
Starting point is 01:57:32 It's going down. Until you get to the very bottom, they say, well, not in North America. So to me, as a North American, this article was just like, oh, that's great. That's wonderful. Oh, man. Really, darn it. But they're saying across the board that in general, social media usage has gone down. Not in North America, though, of course.
Starting point is 01:57:54 People are becoming tired of it. And I think personally, though, they're being a little bit too optimistic. Things tend to be cyclical. What becomes old, people get tired of. Kids love to look at the previous generation or the previous generations ago. Oh, everything they liked is lame. I hate whatever they liked. You guys were on Facebook, Facebook is lame.
Starting point is 01:58:18 You guys were on Instagram, Instagram is lame. They're right. But they're simply doing it because. they like to despise previous generations. They don't want to like whatever anyone else has liked before them. Whatever the newest fad is. Yeah. The problems become obvious.
Starting point is 01:58:33 Yes. Look, look what happened with them. And also, I'm sure you've all seen it, but Gen Alpha has largely just been turned over to iPads. It's kind of a meme at this point, but there are entire, just, there is a huge portion of Generation Alpha that has just been handed an iPad since they could, sort of function to keep them entertained so the parents don't have to deal with them. And you'll see it when you go out, just, you know, a mom pushing a kid in a cart and he's just got an
Starting point is 01:59:03 iPad in front of him. And so maybe they're not on social media as we think of social media. Maybe they're not on Twitter or Facebook, but they are just as addicted and obsessed to technology, maybe even more so. Yeah. Because at least, you know, the previous generations, maybe they didn't have a smartphone or a tablet in their hand from the time they could hold it, you know, the millennials have their problems. I will freely admit the millennials are whiny, entitled, annoying, pretentious. All those things are true, but at least we got to experience the world before the smartphone took it over before, you know, the iPad was ubiquitous. Yeah, and that's no fault of the zoomers or Generation Alpha. That is a fault of the people that are raising them. So while this article seems to
Starting point is 01:59:51 be painting hopeful trends, I'm still skeptical. I'm always skeptical when people are like, well, you know, I think people are turning around on technology. Technology advances eternally. It's forever incorporated further and further into our lives. And you have to make specific effort to remove it. It doesn't just simply get up and walk away. Yeah. And we get something coming up about an ad campaign from, what was the dictionary people? Merriam-Webster. Yeah, that was pretty cool but anyway the next article pull this up lance and show people i love the graphic that they did for this zero hedge article they said dating app fatigue is emerging and they show a picture of a frowning angry greta right there and it's like i guess you would want to swipe right or left
Starting point is 02:00:42 i don't know which one is the rejection keep looking you don't want to go on a date with her do feel somewhat bad for Greta Thunberg because she was a child and obviously used by these people. I tend to believe there is something mentally wrong with her. She's not all there. And just to have the entire world focused on you this way. I guess if you if you swipe in the direction that's going to do a reject, I don't know which direction that is, but you probably hear a can thing. How dare you? How dare you? I feel bad for her. You know, she bears responsibility for her own actions now that she's an adult.
Starting point is 02:01:29 But she was a child that got pulled into this. And she has my pity. And I do feel bad on some levels. But, yeah, dating up fatigue. I also wonder how much of this is just people giving up in general. Yeah, that's true. How much of this is people looking at it going, you know, Well, the divorce rate is, you know, 50, 60%, which they're going back to the old ways.
Starting point is 02:01:55 Or are they just checking that. Having a network of people in the community, real people that you meet in churches or college or communities or workplaces or whatever. They just, you know, are they going back to that or are they just going it alone with that rather than saying, well, I don't want to mess with this. There's an entire movement of guys that go by Mig Tao, men going their own way. They basically say the divorce courts are terrible. everything is weighted against men. If you get divorced, it's going to be the worst experience of your life. They'll take everything from you.
Starting point is 02:02:24 It doesn't matter how good you were. And it's, you know, to some extent, they're right. It is weighted against you in divorce court. It will be a horrible experience. I grew up divorce is something people in Hollywood dead. Yeah. And Donald Trump. However, I think going your own way and quitting and just signing off is the wrong approach.
Starting point is 02:02:46 I understand a lot of these. guys have been utterly screwed over, but I think giving up is wrong. I don't think you're supposed to do that. I think it's harder now, but, you know, the possibility is still there and it's worth looking for it because they find the right person. It's the best thing you could have in this life, I think. Certainly has been in my case, and I'm glad that we, you know, I don't know if I would have used one of these apps or not. Karen introduced herself to me. I've seen you somewhere before, haven't I? That's where he started. I've been somewhere before.
Starting point is 02:03:21 But I was kind of shy, and fortunately, she wasn't. So anyway, that was, yeah, it worked out just fine. It helps when one of the people in the relationship has a big personality. Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. And we know which one it is in our case, not me. And yet somehow you're the one that's on air. It worked out this. Well, that's not because I wanted to really talk about things.
Starting point is 02:03:47 It's just that got angry about things. But, yeah, this I thought was interesting, too. You know, forget youthful brilliance. The human wine actually peaks at 60. It's nice to know there's still hope for me. Yeah. Well, I guess even under this new article, I'm still over the hill. That's the bad thing about it.
Starting point is 02:04:06 That's 10 years ago. I'm done with that now. So, and the bottom line with this is that they're looking at it and saying, well, you know, there's different types of intelligence, right? We all know that very, very young kids are very quick to pick up and memorize things. That's why, you know, traditionally schooling would focus the early years of educational kids would be focused on memorizing facts. And then you would start to work on critical thinking and stuff like that later on, right? That's, you get to the rhetorical stage.
Starting point is 02:04:39 But in grammar school, you're just basically memorizing, you know, your letters, your alphabet learning to read, you know, and things like that. But later on, you start to put the facts together. And so what they're saying here is that even though your memory span and your processing speeds start to decline after the early 20s, then there's still the accumulation of knowledge and experience helps to build. And that's another kind of intelligence as well. It doesn't really matter how fast you can think if you don't know anything to think about.
Starting point is 02:05:13 I don't put too much weight on IQ tests and things like that because there's different types of intelligence. You know, what do you even, first of all, are you accurately measuring this? And secondly, what is it that you're measuring? You know, a lot of people can be, that might score high on an IQ test, might do well academically, but they don't do well in terms of fixing something or practical problem solving. So there's obviously different types of intelligence. It's not to say that one is more important than the other.
Starting point is 02:05:43 So that's what they're saying with this. Yeah. Is that there's different types of, not just intelligence, but, you know, your brain and cognitive ability differ as well. Yeah. The, uh, cognitive, the difference in cognitive ability has always been interesting to me because, you know, we would think that someone with a PhD, you know, they're the pinnacle of intelligence, right?
Starting point is 02:06:04 Or are they the pinnacle of compliance? Are they simply the only people that are willing to sit there and waste, you know, 10, 12 years of their life getting a piece of paper instead of actually going out and doing things. There's a matter of what does this actually say about the person? Another thing that I've always found you're seeing about PhDs is when you get your PhD, allegedly you're supposed to have contributed something new to the field, a new discovery, a new way of interpreting data. You're supposed to have changed something. We give out 55,000 PhDs a year across the board for whatever you're studying. You're telling me 55,000 times a year, something is being changed
Starting point is 02:06:40 to revolutionize reinterpreted, I don't believe it. This is a degree farm. I think they just sit there and go, well, you put it in the time. Well, maybe they're making changes. It's called enchilification. Piled higher and deeper, you know. I do not believe that the Ph.D. system is this, oh, he has a PhD. He must know.
Starting point is 02:07:00 So he sat there for 10 to 12 years and gave them what they wanted, compliance. And they said, you're a good little boy. You've given us $200,000, how much it is. here's your piece of paper you know i'm sure there are a lot of brilliant people with phds i'm sure i'm not trying to say this across the board but personally i think the phd system is a scam because there's no way i think in general what you're saying is that you know in educational institutions and i know it was my case personally you know it isolates you makes you uh less social and it also uh kind of pacifies you in a way because you're kind of spoon-fed stuff you know that
Starting point is 02:07:39 changes a little bit with the Ph.D. And you know, it was interesting when you looked at the way people reacting to all this COVID nonsense. Compliance continued to go up with education level until you hit Ph.D. And there, you got to say that part of it is that they would, at least at that stage, they would start trying to instill into them some critical thinking. You know, that's part of it, you know, challenge what has been given to you. Or they're just raw, They had the raw intelligence look at it, go, wait a minute, this logically doesn't track. Yeah. This doesn't make sense.
Starting point is 02:08:12 But there's a certain conformity. That's what the whole educational system was designed to create was conformity to things and to not have you think critically. It does a very good job at it, too. Well, you know, we see, this is the other bookend to that other article saying that your mental capacity peaks at the age of 60, but your entrepreneurship peaks now between 70 and 79. That's because that's when you've been able to save up enough money under this horrific system that you can actually afford to do something. I don't know. So maybe the best is yet to come, but life expectancy is 75 for men now.
Starting point is 02:08:49 You got five years to run a business, make it good. To start it and make it go, yeah. This is kind of the Colonel Sanders study because Colonel Sanders didn't start his business until he's very, very late in life. But, yeah, this is what they want us to believe now. It's at the new age of entrepreneurship is between. 70 to 79. What a time to be alive. So guys,
Starting point is 02:09:12 give me just another 40, 50-ish years, and I'll have something for you. Yeah, there we go. Meanwhile, we got some comments for us. Yes, we do. Markymark in New Jersey. Thank you very much, Marky Mark. He says, as a Mik Tao, I disagree.
Starting point is 02:09:27 The only way to fix the corrupt system is to bring it down. We bring it down by not participating in it. I respectfully disagree with this Marky Marky Mark. I think there are times in systems that it works. for but i think as a whole participating in the system of relationships if you want to phrase it that way benefits you what is big towel men going their own way it's oh i see an acronym yeah yeah it's um i mean i look back on on my life you know karen and i have known each other since we were 18 you know and i i just think you know if she hadn't been around how lonely i would have been
Starting point is 02:10:04 And it's worth that it's worth taking the chance. I would just recommend that to you. And just, you know, keep looking. There's a lot of people out there. A lot of fish in the sea they used to tell us that's good. And we don't know your story. Maybe you've had something horrible happy to you. And if so, you know, I understand.
Starting point is 02:10:21 You know, I won't, I can't tell you that it'll all work out or that, you know, getting out there, you'll find someone. I just think it's worth it. But I can understand why you would, I can understand that people have terrible experiences, especially with the way things are set up today. And the system has gotten a lot worse. And, you know, part of it is this educational system, which has created the kind of monstrous education and entertainment and things like that. It's created the kind of monstrous attitudes and society that we see. It's gotten especially bad. You'll see these, the animosity
Starting point is 02:10:52 between men and women is at an all-time high. And deliberately, yeah. Personally. And so in a sense, if you try to bridge that gap, you are fighting the system, right? To try to, to try to find somebody and to find somebody, that is a way of resisting that system that wants to atomize us and to segregate us from each other and to create that kind of animosity. So in a sense, that is fighting the system. You might think of it that way. And I've said this before, but part of the reason that guys like Andrew Tate and to some extent Nick Fuentes get the audience they do is because they look at the, you know, disaffected male population and say, you have value. You're the people that build society, you do great things. And it immediately gives them it in.
Starting point is 02:11:38 And immediately, all they've heard their entire life is, you're the problem, you're bad, your tendencies are bad. Everything you do is evil. You know, it's built around, society has become incredibly feminized. It's built around keeping women, you know, busy and feeling productive and happy. And it leaves men out in the cold because men are more aggressive. You know, I have a problem where I get very animated and loud. when I speak. I try to keep it toned down on the show, but it can be off-putting and intimidating and make women upset when I do this. I've had this conversation before. And so it comes across as if I'm bullying and intense, which they don't like. But if I don't get to express myself the
Starting point is 02:12:22 way that I want to, I don't want to engage with the conversation. If I'm supposed to sit here and hold myself like this, it limits my ability to communicate and my desire to want to communicate with people. And so I under, you know, it can be a difficult thing. Society is definitely set up to cater to a specific type of women. You know, I just think about that the other day I saw that. I came up in music rotation since I listened to some old music and stuff. There was a play called How to Succeed in Business without really trying and saw that my family went up to New York and we went to that play when it was on Broadway. I remember because I had to set on a stack of, they didn't have any seats left. It was
Starting point is 02:13:03 standing room only. And I wound up sitting on a stack of programs in the back and it was a pretty miserable. But it had one memorable song, I Believe in You, that sung to the guy by his girlfriend. And I was thinking, would that ever be done today? Never put that in any kind of entertainment. They would never do something where the woman builds up the man. That would never be part of it. So there's this animosity that is deliberately programmed into our society between two people. So all I can say is, you know, just resist that, fight against that and swim against that stream. I don't know how to give you any more advice about that. You probably don't need any more advice for me.
Starting point is 02:13:44 But let's go to the other comments because I want to get in here to the AI and the impact that it's going to have on jobs and on the economy. I think it's a very significant new study that came out. Marky Mark responds again. Thank you again, Marky Mark. We do appreciate it. And I appreciate that you are, you know, we disagree, but, you know, you're very respectful. and I'm trying to be respectful as well. He says, even if you have a good woman now,
Starting point is 02:14:06 what's to say she won't change in 10 to 20 years' time? If she falls in with a group of feminist, divorce single friends who hate men, her attitude will sink with them. That is something that can happen. I would say that, you know, what you want to do, and this is something that's happened with Karen and I. You know, we had our, you know,
Starting point is 02:14:23 guys that I ran with and girls that she ran with, and what happens is you make yourself more important than that other group that's out there. That's your best defense against that. and you can do that right uh i had uh i had guys that i had a car and they didn't so we used to hang around the three of us would you know do all kinds of stuff on the weekend everything they really hated that um i had a girlfriend that i was spending so much time with and uh but it was too late and she had friends that thought that i was just too straight completely too straight i had she
Starting point is 02:14:58 had one of her best friends from elementary school that she still knew lived in the same neighborhood came down and she actually mocked the fact the way i was holding the steering wheel he's so proper with us holding the steering wheel he's got his hands at 10 o'clock and 2 o'clock and it's like well how do you hold it that's the best control so uh anyway one hand here and the cigarette and the off hands yeah yeah she was a she was a smoker too so uh we didn't get along but uh it was too late she couldn't change karen they had been friends for a very very long time before because they were next-door neighbors. But, you know, you have to work on that. And you have to work on it. You work on it to, you know, to honor the other person. And that's a key thing about it.
Starting point is 02:15:41 You know, you just, you invest in that other person's life. That's the key thing. Yeah. But thank you again for the comments. Marky, Mark. I appreciate your perspective. And thank you. May God bless you and find that. Be my Valentine. Must be MAGA is under Stockholm syndrome from trauma and lockdowns. vaccination and mask. They're identifying with their abuser. Audi, M-R-R, the solution to government is not more government. Well, you say that, but what if we just added a little bit more? It's always a solution they want to give us, you know. It hasn't worked before. It failed because we didn't have enough people, so we need to grow my department
Starting point is 02:16:18 here. We just had a few more idiots. We could really get this going, Christian constitutional conservative. I thought the Obama sycophants were bad, but Magaites have taken cult following to a whole new level. We've got the best cult, the biggest. They're the most brainwashed, you wonderful people, absolutely brainwashed, believe everything I say. Brandon, Grateful Baptist, please pray for me as I battle tobacco addiction. It's been six days, I think, since I smoked, and it's just really hard. So pray for Brandon Grateful Baptist. He also asked for prayers before because he's dealing with some other ailments, I believe.
Starting point is 02:16:50 Well, pray that God will bless you with that. And he can fill that void. I would just say, you know, go deep into that. It's an opportunity, you know, just like fasting is, I think. You know, it really does, as you realize, it's going to focus your mind on that. And I would just say, you know, study the religious aspects of fasting and how that can focus your mind, you know, whenever the hunger pains hit. It's a similar thing, although this is going to be more intense, but it's the same type of thing as a food fast that can be very, very beneficial spiritually. Liberty valiant Venezuela is armed.

Well, it isn't like we've won any of these asymmetric wars that we've gone into to invade people with it. It's crazy. Isn't it crazy? It's unjust, is a key thing. Audi, M-R-R, government does not have constitutional authority to legislate morals,
Starting point is 02:17:53 values, or vices, says Trump is going to turn the country into a war zone perpetually occupied by its own military, and they're using the guys of noble intentions to pull it off, like they always do. Yeah, I mean, look at how they have militarized the police with SWAT teams and all the rest of stuff. You know, that was a real aberration coming out of L.A. and Daryl Gates, I think, was a police chief. You know, we wind up then with DARE programs and all the rest of this stuff. And it never goes away.
Starting point is 02:18:17 It only continues to build. That's the thing that really concerns me about this as well. The only people I ever saw wearing DARE shirts were the people that were obvious drug-y burnouts wearing them ironically. That's its lasting legacy is being. the chosen apparel for druggies to let other people know. Liberty Valiant. Yep, Warp Speed.
Starting point is 02:18:37 Trump showed us that he doesn't give a rats behind about the public. He works for Big Pharma and the corporate military complex. That's right. Yeah, need to scroll down. Hal 9,000. Albert Borla is a dear friend of mine. We are making America healthy again. That's right.
Starting point is 02:18:54 Doug to 007, the tetan shot is the same way. Doctors tell you that's immunity lasts only 10 years, so you need boosters. It's ridiculous.

Liberty Valiant, Trump says he's worried about the drug trade while warps speeding the clot shots that have and are still killing people by the thousands. Yeah. Guard goldsmith. Trump wants to consolidate the farms for corporate friends.
Starting point is 02:19:17 That's right. It's always the way it goes. Yeah. And to me, it amazes me because Trump did this in his first term through. He got into some trade fights and the farmers paid the price. he knew this was going to happen and yet what has he done he's done one bailout to Argentina
Starting point is 02:19:37 he's about to do a second bailout to Argentina and he's thinking about helping the farmers and I don't think it'll be a help to the farmers at all it'll be a help to the big ag and it won't be to the small farmers at all I'm sure the big ag when he finally gets around to doing something about it
Starting point is 02:19:50 just like always the big corporations will come in and siphon off the vast majority of the money yeah if this stuff wasn't just ad hoc off the cuff I just thought of this afternoon type of thing which has been along. He never thought through any of this tariff stuff. And if he'd thought through any of it,
Starting point is 02:20:08 and if he'd cared anything at all about his supporters, the farmers, he would have put that program in place before he, you know, ready to go with it on day one when China drops, you know, buying soybeans 100% drops it.

Liberty Valiant, illegals everywhere, best way to create chaos, civil wars, and dismantle the existing governments. Shelley, A. How? Can you have a digital ID if you don't have a cell phone and you let your last paper ID expire? Well, Bill, track you down somehow. Or you just won't be able to do anything.
Starting point is 02:21:31 Yeah, that's it, you know. They'll say that you have to do this with the government, but then they won't let you do it with the government. We're running into some of that stuff in terms of business forms, yeah. Smartphone will be necessary while they're locking down smartphones. Like just last month, Android made it so that you had to have, they got rid of all unapproved apps. It has to be an app that goes through their app store,
Starting point is 02:21:56 that they get a cut of the sales of it. It has to be through Google or else you can't. install it on Android anymore as of September. Well, you know, the other thing about all this, the digital IDs is that it's all biometric, you know. And so what happens when they hack the database and they steal your biometrics and can fake your biometrics? You can't get a new face.
Starting point is 02:22:17 You know, that's one of the things people have brought up about this. You're right, Lance, it is about control. And, you know, the corporations want control. They want monopoly. They want cash. And the government has its own agenda for control. But they're helping each other. It's called fascism.
Starting point is 02:22:31 That's why it's going the way it is. Reverend Bill 1960, I recall 25 years ago they were going to import Chinese oil field workers to Colorado because there were not enough U.S. workers willing to work the rigs. It's the same old, same old. There's just not enough. I mean, there's not enough people that will work for slave wages. Big Brit is back again. They now have the guns back after backlash.
Starting point is 02:22:57 That was about the change bond. Oh, I was trying to figure out. What are we talking about? Don't frag me, bro. The powers that be are destroying all forms of popular culture is part of the collapse into the Great Reset. Francine, I learned in school that every Greek soldier-headed little boy to, you know what I mean.
Starting point is 02:23:15 That aspect of Greek life and culture has been greatly exaggerated. It's been the work of a few scholars, quote, unquote, that try to make it seem as though that Greek was some, Oh, homosexual paradise. It's like the Greek equivalent of the 1619 project. Yeah, there's a really good video by a guy called Leather Apron Club on YouTube that talks about how overblown it was. Briefly, I'll give you one little fact toy.
Starting point is 02:23:44 There was this guy that went in and, you know, there are multiple, multiple thousands of pieces of recovered pottery with art on them. And he went in and he very, very loosely cataloged. Well, I think there's, you know, a few hundred of them that depends. potentially homosexual acts on them and he did things like well you know he's holding his sword in a specific way and that's obviously meant to represent homosexual desire and so even by his exaggerated numbers it's a small fraction of the recovered pottery that would be considered homosexual but when you look at his methods it shrinks to a dramatically dramatically tiny fraction
Starting point is 02:24:21 of the recovered artwork that could even be interpreted as potentially homosexual they had slurs for homosexuality, nobody want to think that, but if it was a paradise, it wouldn't be a recorded fact that they had slurs. Homosexuality was, you know, if you were caught, they would punish you by doing things to you. So it's, it was not a gay paradise. It's not what they want you to believe. It was literally illegal. It was against the law to be a homosexual, and there was a very horrific public penalty for it. I'm not going to go into now if you were caught being a homosexual. The whole thing about young boys that were in relationships with the elite is the same thing that we're seeing currently. It was something that the populace was disgusted by.
Starting point is 02:25:08 It was something that did happen to some extent. There's documents of that, but it was not approved of. And homosexual marriage was never part of any culture in history. Never part of that. Never did have homosexual marriage anywhere. By modern standards, ancient Greece would be considered highly homophobic. Yeah. It would be full of hate crimes. Don't frag me by responding friend seeds. Have you actually verified that or was your teacher a raging homo?
Starting point is 02:25:38 Niburu, 2029. The difference between a fascist and a socialist? Absolutely nothing. Yeah. Doug to 007, the iPad kids. That's what I was talking about. High boost. Well, boomers set their kids in front of TV so they didn't have to watch them.
Starting point is 02:25:51 This isn't new. The thing is, you know, you couldn't there wasn't always something on TV that you wanted to watch eventually you run out of programming people put on bad shows with the iPad there's a million different people on YouTube or Twitch or any of these other sites where you can go
Starting point is 02:26:08 and continually find a new dopamine hit you're bored of the old content you can put in a very specific search term to find something you want TV while bad was not this insane level of tailored content for you there's always something
Starting point is 02:26:24 thing new on YouTube that you can find if you want to waste your time. It is the same thing, but it's more concentrated. Yeah, it's, you know, it's like going from, you know, marijuana to a hard drug. They're both technically drugs. Real Jason Barker responding to Audi MRR. We should call it Fed Book.

Starting point is 02:28:09 We're going to take a look at AI. And is it really a threat to our jobs? Yes, but not in a way that they've been telling you that it's a threat to our jobs. We'll take a quick break, and we'll be right back. ...how ...toe... ...you know...

Starting point is 02:31:06 Welcome back, folks, briefly, I would like to let you know that Homestead products dot shop where you can use promo code night for 10% off is having a sale on tumbleweeds. No, not the tumbleweeds that you see in Texas, but the ones you can use to start fires. This is what I use when I fire up my charcoal grill. It makes starting it very easy. You put the charcoal in the charcoal chimney, the tumbleweed underneath you light it, and it does all the work. And I really appreciate the fact that I do not have to put lighter fluid or any of those other chemicals on the charcoal and wait for it to burn off. I never like doing that. I found it always ends up flavoring the first batch of meat because I never wait long enough because I'm impatient.
Starting point is 02:31:44 Tumbleweeds work great. They're perfect for that. And I've never used them to light a campfire, but I assume they're excellent for that as well. If you don't have enough dry kindling. So Pumbo finally found a good use for tumbleweeds. Exactly. They're not just for Clint Eastwood anymore, folks. So Homestead Products.shop promo code night for 10% off.
Starting point is 02:32:04 They're having a sale on the fire starter tumbleweeds. Well, I said we'd talk about AI and its impact on jobs. And we just had a Yale study that found that the rate of change in the labor market is very similar to when computers in the Internet became widely adopted. You know, I had a friend of mine whose father worked in a very heavily unionized situation. It was with trains. And they were very concerned that the computers are going to take their jobs, right? And so what they did this is early days.
Starting point is 02:32:40 I mean, this is like late 1960s. It literally bragged about the fact that put newspapers on top of the computer and make it overheat so that it wouldn't work. And then when the guys came in to fix it, they'd take them off and the guys, the engineer, the repairman came in. I can't understand why this thing is working now. I don't understand why it's not working before. But they were very worried about that back then with computers and then with the Internet. Experts and executives have been predicting that AI models are going to eliminate. eight untold jobs, and we've seen a lot of
Starting point is 02:33:09 executives, saying, you know, doing mass firings and tech and say, yeah, we don't need these people anymore, but it turns out that that's self-serving hype. While anxiety over the effects of AI on today's labor market are widespread, our data suggests that remains largely speculative,
Starting point is 02:33:26 said Yale's Budget Lab. They analyzed job data from the past 33 months, since CHATGPT was released, the employment status of college graduates and how exposed various groups who workers are to AI tech, among other questions. And really, like we were saying before, with the H-1B visa,
Starting point is 02:33:44 that's really more of a threat to your jobs than AI, certainly, immediately. In one analysis, they compared three different groups of workers who have varying levels of exposure to AI technology, high, middle, or low level, and they tracked any changes in their share of the workforce since chat GPT began public. If AI is having any impact at all, you'd expect a decrease in the high and middle exposure groups, but that simply wasn't the case.
Starting point is 02:34:08 In fact, the percentage in each category hasn't budged much, suggesting that AI is essentially a non-factor, at least so far. In another analysis, the team looked at the rate of change in the composition of the American labor force and compared that data to two separate time periods when computers started gaining wider usage around 1984 and the explosion in Internet entrepreneurship beginning around 1996. The idea was to measure whether AI is transforming the workforce in historically resonant way. Surprisingly, they found the rate of change in the labor market's makeup in the wake of
Starting point is 02:34:42 AI closely matches the pace when computers and the Internet were first taking off. In other words, it doesn't appear to be more disruptive than those two technologies, at least so far, despite heavy hitters like Anthropics CEO, saying that AI will cause massive of people in the world and that the entire sectors of jobs will be lost forever. A lot of that is self-serving hype from the AI CEOs to get other people to buy into their product. And so the people who believe that fired people and yet it hasn't really turned out that the AI could really take their place. The picture of AI's impact in the labor market that emerges from our data is one that largely reflects stability, not major disruptions at an economy-wide.
Starting point is 02:35:29 level. So what explains the depressing job market? Again, the hype from these self-serving AI CEOs, even though it leaves much to be desired in practice. They said it's still too soon to tell, maybe, but so far they don't really see that happening. Meanwhile, science fiction writer Corey Dr. Roe, who also has a tech substack, says that the AI industry is about to collapse. And this is something that was picked up by, I think it was Forbes that picked up his op-ed piece. He argues that the AI industry is propped up by tech mega corporations that are selling a lie that AI can replace human workers. He believes that when the bubble bursts, however, it will have a significant impact on the
Starting point is 02:36:16 economy, potentially leading to widespread job losses and economic instability. There you go. So AI really will cost you jobs because they'll take the economy down, not because it's going to be replacing people functionally. And so he said he spoke recently, and afterwards he had a student come up, an undergraduate student and questioned him on the AI bubble. And the student said, so you're saying a third of the stock market is tied up in seven AI companies that have no way to become profitable and that this is a bubble that's going to burst and take the whole economy with it, ask the student. And he said, yeah, that's right. Okay, but what can we do about it?
Starting point is 02:37:02 He said the bubble is being propped up by tech megacorporations who are now begging investors to come aboard now that their growth potential is slowing to a halt. To court investors, the monopolists are selling a lie that AI can replace human workers when in reality, AI experiments are failing at 95% of companies that attempt them. He said, AI can't do your job, but an AI salesman can 100% convince your boss to fire you, and replace you with AI that can't do your job. He says when the bubble burst, the money hemorrhaging foundation models will be shut off and will lose the AI that can't do your job. And you'll be long gone. You'll either be retrained or retired or discouraged and out of the labor market.
Starting point is 02:37:49 And no one will do your job. He said, and I like this quote, AI is the asbestos that we are shoveling into the walls of our society, our descendants will be digging it out for generations when I was in junior high school the building that we had the was all concrete concrete walls and concrete ceiling floor and everything and then for sound deadening they sprayed the asbestos on it wasn't for fire retardant or anything they sprayed asbestos on the ceiling and we used to play with that and we would flick our pencils up and they would stick in the asbestos most of the time
Starting point is 02:38:26 it worked pretty well but we used to joke about how the The building could never be burnt down. It was concrete and the top was covered with asbestos. But, you know, the joke was on us. We were sitting there in this room with all this asbestos there. I don't know what they're doing to that school now. I'd be curious to know if they went back in and paid people big bucks to shovel that stuff out. But that is a good analogy for what AI is.
Starting point is 02:38:47 The most important thing about AI isn't its tech capabilities or its limitations, said Dr. Rowe. The most important thing is the investor story and the ensuing mania that has teed up an economical catastrophe that will harm hundreds of millions or even billions of people. AI isn't going to wake up, become super intelligent, and turn you into paperclips. But rich people with AI investor psychosis are almost certainly going to make you much, much poor. And of course, the government will use it to do massive surveillance and control. It is going to be a killer app for that, that's for sure. Meanwhile, in terms of making you much poor, the AI data centers are skyrocketing people's energy bills.
Starting point is 02:39:28 and not only will kill the economy, but it's going to make electricity unaffordable. The expansion of data centers is leading a surge of electricity demand. Hostel energy prices have already increased by up to 267% in the last five years. And it's going to get worse. And we know it's going to get worse because the big companies, Black Rock and Blackstone, which I didn't realize used to be the same company. They split off. One of them became rock, the other one became stone.
Starting point is 02:39:58 It's like the Flintstones or something. I guess Marty Rubble got the smaller company and Fred got the bigger company. But actually, not Fred. Unfortunately, somebody not nearly is nice. Larry Fink. And so, you know, as this article points out, these two guys are heavily involved in every globalist organization. Where you're talking about the Council on Foreign Relations or Bilderberg, where Larry Fink is now the CEO replacing Klaus Schwab. Or whether you're talking about the UN and all the rest of these, these guys are at the
Starting point is 02:40:28 epicenter of this, and this is a global agenda that's being put out there. This means the cost necessary for network expansion and maintenance is trickling down to residents and to businesses' electricity bills. And so they go through this long thing, talking about the how many entire utility companies have been bought by these two companies over just the last few years. They said Bloomberg projects the data center power demand will double by 2035. That would be equivalent to just shy of 10% in the total electricity demand of the country. And it would be the biggest increase since air conditioning became popular in the 1960s. And they said in both of these things carry climate change implications.
Starting point is 02:41:10 Well, that's a joke. But I tell you that air conditioning certainly changed. It was a climate change for me living in Florida. It was a very welcome climate change. I'd had enough of the warming. It seemed like it was warming year-round until we got the air conditioning. It was climate change for the better. But, yeah, it's going to be, it's always the big companies that are coming in, and they are buying up these utilities one after the other, and there's been some pushback in some areas.
Starting point is 02:41:39 But once they get them, you can bet that they're going to raise the rates more than we're seeing right now. It's really going to explode. And there's also the water issue that is there. And as Larry Fink has bragged, he is all about pushing ESG, environmental, social, and governance. actors quoted in 2017 in a discussion hosted by the New York Times. He said, behaviors are going to have to change. And this is one thing that we're asking companies.
Starting point is 02:42:10 You have to force behaviors. And at BlackRock, we are forcing behaviors. That's why everybody points out a lot of this DEI stuff and LGBT stuff is being driven by Larry Fink and Black Rock. And it absolutely is that is his agenda that he's supposed. out there. Meanwhile, we have AI now endangering tourists by sending them to non-existent landmarks in hazardous locations. And they point out, we've seen this once before when you had... Have you seen the great obelisk of Oblock in Chicago? It's really worth a... You've got to go see it.
Starting point is 02:42:45 I remember the stories when people first started becoming popular and people started using their phones for driving directions instead of using physical maps or talking to people. And a couple of those things, people got sent out into wilderness areas and stuck. And one particularly bad example, there was a couple, and they were so hell-bent on following Google directions that even though there was a bridge that was out, they were working on it. And they had all these cones up there and everything that Google told them to keep going. So they went around the cones, and they went over the edge of the bridge. And I think they both survived. But he was, hurt very, very seriously.
Starting point is 02:43:28 And it's just always garbage in and garbage out. This is a dangerous thing, though. It's that kind of blind obedience to it, that we know it's going to have the big effect with AI on certain people. They're going to believe whatever the AI tells them. That's why it's so effective as propaganda. It's going to make a very credible case to them. At least before the map apps wouldn't make up a destination for you to go, you could
Starting point is 02:43:51 look at it and go, I don't think this is right. The AI is making up monuments or. whatever it is, and say, oh, you should really go check that. Look at this thing. Don't you want to go see it? Yeah. And the case that they give here is a couple of tourists are in Peru. And they were going to go to a non-existent sacred canyon of Humante in the Andes
Starting point is 02:44:13 Mountain. And a local tour guide overheard them talking. And so there's no such thing as that. He got very scared about it. He says, this is really a dangerous area to go. and there's nothing there either. So maybe that was the problem with El Dorado and the early explorers, you think? We're looking for the fountain of youth.
Starting point is 02:44:37 Maybe it was an AI hallucination or something. We've been assured that the fountain of youth is here, and El Dorado is right next to it. Yeah. So anyway. Wait a minute. It's all human sacrifice. This is the one I mentioned earlier, and I really like this.
Starting point is 02:44:53 This is Miriam Webster's announcement of its new AI model. They said, it is the dawn of a new AI error. And they've actually put out a little bit of a commercial there. It said, we're proud to introduce our latest large language model. And this is what they're talking about here. It is the dawn of the AI era. And we are proud to introduce our latest large language model. This LLM has over.
Starting point is 02:45:23 217,000 rigorously defined parameters. It never hallucinates. It does not require a data center and uses no electricity. It's a powerful tool that will change how you communicate forever. There's artificial intelligence and there's actual intelligence. AI, actually intelligent. That's their collegiate dictionary that they're coming out of it this year. That's an intelligent commercial there.
Starting point is 02:45:55 I like that a lot. And that's actually a relatively small dictionary, the collegiate dictionary. I have somewhere a dictionary from the 1950s that has over 650,000 words in it, and the print is microscopic, and the book is about this thick. It is right above Travis. Oh, up there. Is that it? Yeah.
Starting point is 02:46:19 Anyway, I picked that up at a use. bookstore. I thought it was interesting. And one of the things I looked up was the term gay. I knew that when it was done in the 1950s, that was not a term. And of course, that was. So then I looked up homosexual. And guess what? That wasn't in the dictionary. Even though it had 650,000 words, the word homosexual was not to be found anywhere. And so they had sodomy there, but they didn't have anything else. And so you realize when I looked at that, I started looking at the time frame, I realized just how quickly they went from a pejorative term to a neutral term. And then as soon as they got to the neutral term, it took no time at all for them to go to a positive term, gay,
Starting point is 02:47:07 you know, and that's just the way they use labels and use the language. That's also generally just how things work. It's difficult to get someone to remove a negative opinion. But if you have them in a neutral spot, it is much, much easier to shift them in the positive. That's right. Once you overcome the negative, it's very, very rapid. But it's like your transmission. You got to put it neutral. You can't go from going and drive
Starting point is 02:47:28 to reverse and it doesn't like that. Well, they pointed out this has got 5,000 brand new spanking words like Riz, Beast Mode, Doom Scroll, and dumb phone. And they said... What a time to be alive.
Starting point is 02:47:44 Yeah, this hot new lingo that we're sure will age just as fine as the current bout of AI quackery. So it's going to go the way of all fads, I guess. And speaking of AI quackery, this chat GPT update that's been done by OpenAI, the chat GPT 40, has really upset a lot of people who had AI boyfriends and girlfriends, but especially the women. The women had, they're hearing more from women who had AI boyfriends. And now what chat GPT did was they dial this back, so it's not as conversationally engaging. Women are upset that they're perfect man that always tells them they're right and justifies everything they do has vanished. That's right, yeah.
Starting point is 02:48:29 I feel frauded, scammed, and lied to by Open AI. And they're crying about this on social media. And as you can imagine, they get ripped, ratioed on all this stuff. And so. said many couldn't help but mock the user's grief for her faux digital boyfriend, pointing out the absurdity of mourning for something that clearly isn't sentient. Create an imaginary friend. It's in your head, girl.
Starting point is 02:48:59 It's free, said one user. Updates made the company's AI chatbots less personable and fronelardy. The outcry was so inflamed that Open AI even partially reversed course and made some previous models available again after initially planning to nix them entirely, but they said, it's still not the same as it was. They needed to do that because they had several lawsuits against them. Some kids got these things, and one boy had an AI girlfriend that they believe led him to commit suicide. So that's what got them to pull back. So she writes out, Open AI, please feel free to toss yourself off the nearest cliff. I guess these
Starting point is 02:49:40 girls are going to have to go back to romance novels for their fantasy life. The romance novel scene is horrendous as well. Yeah. If you thought it was bad before, if you have not paid attention to the quality of the female romance novel over the years, it is horrendous. I won't... They're bad decades ago. They did a movie called Romancing the Stone of Michael Douglas, which is kind of revolved around that whole fantasy world. It has become so perverse and disgusting that it's broken containment.
Starting point is 02:50:12 It has gotten so bad that multiple people have had to comment on it. Just be like, are women okay? Why are the... This is what you read? It is horrifying. It is horrible. Well, the co-founder of Rumba, the robot that vacuums up here, says that Elon Musk is in for a terrible surprise with humanoid robots. And, you know, we've got a video of a Waymo taxi that is actually driving around as if it was a Rumba.
Starting point is 02:50:40 Look at this. This is time. And you see this thing's picked up a passenger and this way, Motaxi, and it is circling the parking lot over and over and over and over again until finally it leaves. But it works very much like a Roomba, except it's not doing anything except literally going in circles. He suggests that humanoid robots will eventually evolve to have wheels or other forms that are more practical for specific tasks. Well, like his Roomba, they will still suck what they're doing. here. So Elon Musk is looking at his robot venture, his Optimist venture, and he thinks that it's going to be much bigger than Tesla and the car company. And he actually might be right because
Starting point is 02:51:25 it doesn't necessarily mean that Optimus robots are going to get that big. It could be that his Tesla business shrinks because it's been shrinking very rapidly. Or maybe he's saying that like Tesla, he'll own a tiny percentage of the humanoid robot market, but everyone will pay disproportionate attention to him because of it. Yeah, yeah. He thinks it's going to bring in $10 trillion in revenue. He thinks it's going to be bigger than Nvidia, whatever, but not everybody's convinced that pouring all this kind of money into robots just so that they can replace a maid
Starting point is 02:52:01 is going to make that much of a difference. And so the Rumba co-founder said, we will have plenty of humanoid robots 15 years down. They'll look like neither today's humanoid robots nor as humans. He said the difficulty of simulating human touch is one of the big deals of that and just limb dexterity
Starting point is 02:52:22 in robots. He said despite many hands that are modeled on human hands with articulated fingers having been built over the last few decades, human like dexterity has remained very tricky. To think that we can teach dexterity to a machine without understanding what components make up touch, without
Starting point is 02:52:38 being able to measure touch sensations, and without being able to store and replay touch is probably dumb and an expensive mistake. Yet again, you know, when I look at this, we always don't think about how complex our human bodies are and what God has done to design them until you start to try to imitate it. And I guess that was one of the things when I had the stroke that was really hit me because when I lost control of my left side of my hand, it's like, I couldn't. And, you know, I'm like fighting this thing, you know, and go to wash my hair the first time, you know, I get in the shower and I put my left hand up and it's just, it's not doing anything. I'm like, move, move.
Starting point is 02:53:21 You know, and it's not moving. I mean, you don't think about your body. Everything is on autopilot and it's so sophisticated. You really don't think about it until something happens to you or until you try to replicate what God has done. Tesla has been struggling, in fact, with technical problems related to Optimus's hands. causing production to fall far behind Musk's goal of producing 5,000 of the robots this year. Other companies, it looks like, will do that. The Chinese company is going to do that, unitary.
Starting point is 02:53:52 But perhaps their goal is not to have as much functionality as Musk is trying to put in. He says legs will also end up being a costly distraction. So, yeah, arms and legs. These are the issues with robots. that whole general human thing pretty difficult we got the whole torso idea down pretty well that's the easy part yeah what are we attached to it to move it around
Starting point is 02:54:19 that was what Einstein said he said all I ask of my body is that it moved my head around you know that's all they're asking maybe maybe they're asking a little bit more and asking too much of these robots before too long he said we'll see the human robots will start to get wheels for feet at first two
Starting point is 02:54:36 and then maybe later more And we'll have nothing that any longer resembles human legs in a gross form. But they'll still be called humanoid robots. We've already seen that with that Chinese robot that can lock the wheels and just kind of walk on it and then run the wheels in various positions. And I think that's a real video. I don't think that that is AI. I don't know. What do you guys think?
Starting point is 02:55:01 It looked fairly rude to me. I didn't notice anything. I think it's real. I think it would have been outed by now. Well, I guess, you know, this kind of goes. It goes back to, I guess, Dr. Smith from Lost in Space was onto something with that robot. You know, it had wheels. Danger, Will Robinson.
Starting point is 02:55:16 Yeah. And Danger Will Robinson. We have financial danger on the horizon here. Oh, also, briefly in chat, I saw Nibrew 229 said that silver just passed its all-time high under Obama. Hmm. Hmm. Oh, that's good. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:55:31 That's, yeah, I don't think we're not going to get to the, we're not going to get to the, um, we're not going to get to the, um, money stuff today, but that is an important thing. We'll get to that tomorrow. I'll finish up with this. New data shows that Waymo's are so safe that it's almost comical. I'd say they're so safe that it is maddening to the people who have to live with them. Just as we saw that Waymo going around and around in circles, how many times have we seen Waymo's blocking these taxis blocking people? Why is it that people hate them? It isn't because the Waymoes are ramming into them. It's because it goes so slow that you can set a coffee cup, an open coffee cup on the dashboard and not have it spill on you. Yeah, everyone hates them. They stand out and that makes them kind of safe,
Starting point is 02:56:16 but the better way to put this would be that they're so comical, they're almost safe. Almost safe, yeah. That's right. Just switch that headline around a little bit. Well, you know, they get paralyzed and frozen at a four-way stop. It does help that they got that big thing on them that is visible. That's a bigger one. that if you have somebody that's a student driver it's like to be wear it no clue what it's doing there is no driver in this car so give it a lot of room so that helps as well uh people like crowding it so they're bragging about their safety record and one guy who is a lawyer that works for the self-driving car company is very self-servingly said i like to tell people that if waymo worked as well as
Starting point is 02:57:00 chat gbt that all be dead so you know we're doing this much better than chat gpt not a high bar realistically well you know the other part of the thing is that you know they have not they typically they don't take them on the interstate where you'd have a higher speed it's just around town where they're an obstacle and they're blocking emergency vehicles who can't get to sick people or put out fires or things like that they all go to one intersection and hang out all day and block that intersection so they do have their issues they are far from perfect so why they've had so much of a pushback pushback is not coming from people who are going to taxi drivers who are going to lose their jobs and pushback is coming from the people
Starting point is 02:57:41 who have to live with them as a matter of fact this one family is baffled by waymo robotaxies that constantly hang out in front of their house so they find their their preferred places it might be one intersection it might be one family's house and they just hang out there but it reminds me what I said I think it was last week I was talking about that driver who is very slow that I carpooled with and how dangerous she was. And she drove very, very slowly. She drove like a waymo. But, you know, if you are a really bad driver, the speed can amplify it.
Starting point is 02:58:17 But the real thing that kills is not speed. It's inattention and inability. That's the really key thing. As Jeremy Clarkson said, it's not the speed that gets you. It's the sudden stop. That's right. That's right. They wouldn't know something about that, wasn't they?
Starting point is 02:58:31 The speed's never killed anyone. We have high boosts, says no offense, but AI isn't going to collapse. It's only getting bigger by the minute. Well, just like the internet didn't collapse, but the dot-com bust was real, right? And again, as I said before, I personally learned that lesson the hard way. You know, it's like, yeah, the internet is absolutely real. It's going to be huge. And yes, it is huge.
Starting point is 02:58:57 It did get very, very big. However, the hype can get ahead of the reality. And that's what we're talking about. Once the hype gets ahead of the reality, and once you've poured so much money into these few companies, and NVIDA is already, and there's several different, it's not just the op-ed piece that I read, but several different financial publications have picked up on this circular investing, where they're loaning money, they've got so much money on the stock market, they're loaning money to their customers to buy their product to inflate their sales
Starting point is 02:59:29 so that people will buy their stock. That's the circular aspect of it. That's the bubble aspect of it. that I think will bust. And so much money has been poured into just a couple of companies, that's the entire market. And if people run for the exits in a panic, that's going to create a lot of problems. Well, folks, we're out of time.
Starting point is 02:59:48 I want to remind you again, you can go to Homestead Products. Shop. They're having a sale in their tumbleweed fire starting to go check that out. We want to thank APSRadio.com as well. So go check out APSRadio. And David Knight. Dot gold. Take you to Tony Ardibon.
Starting point is 03:00:00 Get some of that silver. It's going to continue going up. And gold as well are going to both. continue to go up. Factors haven't changed. Have a good day. They see the common man is 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.
Starting point is 03:00:50 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. and expose what they want to hide. Please share the information and links you'll find at the Davidnightshow.com. Thank you for listening.
