Starting point is 00:00:00 I'm gonnae. In a world. In a world of deceit, a world of deceit, Telling the truth is a revolutionary act. It's the David Knight Show. As the clock strikes 13, this is take number three of the David Night Show on this Monday, the 20th of October year of our Lord, 2025. We've had some technical issues, apparently the, and I'll tell you about that on the other side of it,
Starting point is 00:00:55 but I want to tell you what we're going to talk about today. We're going to begin with the No King's Rally. What were we told it was going to be? how is this being portrayed by both the left and the right? What does it tell us about both the left and the right? And what does it warn us, those of us who are not a part of either of these tribes, what does it tell us about what we can expect from both of these groups? It's very concerning.
Starting point is 00:01:20 We're going to take a look at what happened and what was said about it before and after. We'll be right back. Stay with us. Thank you. Well, we had a problem with our broadcast. What we do is we upload to Restream, which then sends it out to many platforms. And so we can't, Restream is down. It's not anything under our control.
Starting point is 00:02:22 It's the site Restream is down. So we have to pick one. So we're going to be broadcasting on Rumble. If you're on Rumble, we're going to try to leave messages on other sites to tell people to come to Rumble if they want to see the show live. But we're on Rumble right now and not broadcasting live on any of the other platforms. Of course, the full show will be up today on all the different platforms. But let's take a look at what happened over the weekend at the No Kings Rally.
Starting point is 00:02:47 This was L.A. Massive amounts of people in the streets, as you can see. We had over 7 million people, they estimate, across the country. Huge crowds. Here in Tennessee and Knoxville, they had the largest demonstration ever that they've had. It's not one of the hard left cities like Nashville or Memphis in Tennessee. It's kind of, I guess, like they say, purple. They've got some Republican officials.
Starting point is 00:03:10 They've got some Democrat officials. This is what... Join it. There's Chicago. Here's an aerial shot painting the people, and we got one coming up that is a time lapse that I think gives you a better idea of the flow of people. people but this is quite a few people yeah this is um this is across the country pretty much every city there you go and uh yeah there's chicago look at it in a time lapse thing i don't like this
Starting point is 00:03:46 song either not as quite as grading as the uh the ymca i think but nevertheless what we were told by the people uh before this people like mike johnson others are telling us that um you know we've got this emergency in all these different places. Why Trump has to go there, the entire country is on fire, right? And these people are going to be very dangerous and radical. They needed to get, and they did in some areas. Like in Texas, they called up extra security. They called up the National Guard, which is a precaution.
Starting point is 00:04:18 But nothing happened. Nothing happened at all. As a matter of fact, this is what they're telling everybody about all the radical terrorists everywhere. This is what they watch the cut back and forth between what they say this is. and the reality on the ground that people have interspersed there, what they're saying about these various places, and then clips of the various places. President Trump will end,
Starting point is 00:04:39 the radical left's reign of terror in Portland once and for all. Portland. And you see fires over there. Dancing animals. You see fights and... Fires all over the place. This network of Antifa is just as sophisticated as MS-13, as TDA, as ISIS, as Hezbollah, as Hamas, as all of them.
Starting point is 00:05:00 They are just as dangerous. They have an agenda to destroy us. The dangerous gang folks is in Washington, coming out of Washington. These are the dangerous gang leaders there. They're doing in combat every night to come and go from their building. Slide to the left. Slide to the right. Chris Crawl.
Starting point is 00:05:19 You look at what's happened with Portland over the years. It's a burning hell hall. That does sound hellish to me. I've been to Portland and I've seen these liberals and they can be very annoying, but it is not what he's saying it is. And, you know, this is very much like what Trudeau did, isn't it? How he tried to portray the people who showed up for the convoy and they were peacefully, part of it had playgrounds and all the rest of this stuff. And he's trying to tell everybody how they are radical terrorists and everything. This is what governments do.
Starting point is 00:05:55 And there's no difference, folks, between Trump and Trudeau. One of them is a communist. The other one is a technocrat. But they lie to you about the same things, always trying to create an emergency, always telling you that there's a problem when there isn't a problem, so they can use excessive force. And so the story from Ross story said, for no King's Day, I wore an inflatable bear costume, and I saw America in all of its glory. This week, blind to constitutional law and U.S. history, Trump borders czar, Tom Homan said that protesting ice, quote, could lead to bloodshed. and people dying. Yeah, because they'll kill you.
Starting point is 00:06:33 By suggesting that masked ice agents could kill protesters for simply shouting hateful things at them, Homan was building the permission structure for federal agents to use full-force violence against non-violent protesters. And we're seeing this over and over again. People show up, and they're at large mass of people. They're in the road,
Starting point is 00:06:55 and these guys start shoving, pushing, shooting, running over people. We're saying it over and over again. We just had a situation where a group of people who were following ICE and documenting what they're doing, one of them, a lawyer, they rammed his car, arrested him. These are the people who show up, they're a bunch of thugs just like Tom Homan. Except unlike Tom Homan, they don't all get a grocery bag with $50,000 in it. They do get a $50,000 bonus for signing up and for meeting their quotas, though. We'll talk more about that later.
Starting point is 00:07:31 More than that, his statement was meant to groom the public, Hohman's statement. The Trump administration is trying to get U.S. citizens used to the idea that federal agents could use lethal force to the point of killing people against anyone who exercises their constitutional right to peacefully protest government actions that they don't like. That's what's involved here. On too many videos circulating on social media,
Starting point is 00:07:56 masked ICE agents have been recorded getting more and more aggressive with members of the public who are escalating nonviolent exchanges into violent exchanges. Federal agents have been caught on video, body slamming people to the ground, kneeling on people's necks, pointing armed weapons at close range. More than 20 people have died at ICE's hands,
Starting point is 00:08:19 including U.S. citizens. But this tally is artificially low because Trump administration tightly controls media access to ICE detention facility. It was in Chicago, where I think they started setting this pattern. We had that apartment building, and they had men grappling out of black helicopters and so forth, pulling people out in the middle of the night, one o'clock in the morning, and putting guns in their faces, men, elderly people, children, and the one elderly lady who had lived
Starting point is 00:08:51 in Chicago for a very long time, and, you know, we know that Chicago is one of the more violent cities. Nevertheless, she said, I'd never had a gun stuck in my face. before these guys came here they're not helping they're making matters worse it's just like the war on drugs it doesn't change anything about the war on drugs it just gives you a second problem because it's always about control home and like trump seems oblivious to what the first amendment says that congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech or the right of the people to peacefully assemble well there is no law here what we have is an executive order trump does as a
Starting point is 00:09:28 as he pleases, and that's why they have the no-kings issue there. It's a great label for it, except that I think it needs to be put into context. LifeSight News said, these people are anti-Christian because Christ is a king, and we have the kingdom of heaven, and the kings are not a bad thing. Well, they are on earth. Christ might be the king of kings and Lord of Lords, and he is. However, these people who act like kings think that they are God. They don't act like a king.
Starting point is 00:09:57 they act like the Lord Jesus Christ. And that's why the founders said, no king but Jesus. And that's why they said, Lex, Rex, the law is king. These people have sworn to obey the law. And from Trump to Homan to the thug with a mask on his face, they all swore as a condition of their office to uphold the Constitution. That's what their authority is based on. And these people are, to go back to the example of,
Starting point is 00:10:27 Lord of the Rings. You remember the guys who are the stewards of Gondor, and they wanted to be the kings, and they did not want the king to return. Well, these guys are stewards. That's what they are. They are not the king. They want to think that they're a king, but they're unfaithful stewards. And when they violate their oath to the Constitution that gives them their authority, they have no legitimate authority. They have a lot of force, though, and they're willing to use that without any restraint. It was a very first amendment to the Constitution, and it was key to getting the states to go along with the Constitution.
Starting point is 00:11:00 Many states refused to sign to support the Constitution after it was drafted in 1787 because they were fearful of a strong federal government with no constraints to protect people from overreach. It was a sticking point that refused to yield, as the objecting states would not support the Constitution without a guarantee of individual liberties, including freedom of religion,
Starting point is 00:11:20 and most importantly, the freedom to speak, openly together and to criticize the government well because those things can't be separated right you can't have free exercise religion without freedom of speech and if you have freedom of speech it's going to be tied to you're going to be free to speak about your religion of course the left wants to shut that down as well both the left and the right are coming for every aspect of the Constitution especially free speech neither of them values it And we need to not fall for the virtue signaling and the lies of either side.
Starting point is 00:11:57 The reality is, is that both sides have been pushing for this Civil War. They both want to fight each other. And we're going to be stuck in the middle. That's the reality of this thing. Freedom of speech beyond the reach or control of government stands as a beacon of freedom throughout the world. And the fact that freedom of speech is under attack everywhere, for every reason, is one of the key issues. And we see this everywhere across the world. and people just don't appreciate the importance of it, I think.
Starting point is 00:12:27 So that's why Trump's executive order declaring that the federal government would now punish dissenters whom he labeled domestic terrorists since chills down the spine of anyone who has the slightest concept of history. People in MAGA who support Trump's centralized thought control have no concept of what is like to live under authoritarian rule, even though we got a taste of it under Biden and the January of the sixth stuff. that was coming after people who had peacefully, for the most part, had peacefully exercised their right to protest. It got violent, but again, as many people on the right will point out, that violence was instigated by aggressive police
Starting point is 00:13:08 who started pushing, shoving, and shooting people and firing tear gas in the crowd. They could understand that on January 6th. They can't understand the principle if it's somebody that they don't like. They just want them hurt. And they're no different than the left when it comes. said, I am so sick and tired of these MAGA people saying I voted for it. And I just want to say, yes, you did.
Starting point is 00:13:27 And you should have known better. And you voted for it. I didn't. I didn't vote for either one of these thugs. Wouldn't vote for the left or the right. So people in MAGA who support this don't know what it's like to live under the authoritarian rule, like in China. You have Xi Jinping has installed facial recognition software into China's public security apparatus, records everyone at crosslights and bus stops, of course, we have something here like
Starting point is 00:13:54 that too, but it has a nice fascist flare to it. And by that, I mean, it's a corporate government partnership. The flock cameras are doing the same thing. But of course, here, since it's run by corporation and used by government, we pretend that government is not funding it and the government has nothing to do with it. So we put a nice corporate veneer on it so that people can get rich off of the tyranny, and then we say, oh, it's legal because it's not being done by the government. So it's interesting on raw story. Of course, you know, the Marxists are cheered by these leftists as well. Che Guevar and all the rest of these people who do this stuff as well.
Starting point is 00:14:36 There is an amazing blindness on both the left and the right to the actions of people that are, you know, they only look at, first of all, do I like you or dislike you? I agree with you or disagree with you? If I disagree with you or dislike you, then I will applaud everything that has done to you. I think a good example of this is that pastor that got shot in the face with a pepper ball. You know, I look at what this guy has done. He's been with BLM marches. He has desecrated his church with all kinds of weird kind of satanic stuff as well as LGBT stuff. I don't agree with him religiously or politically on anything, I think. But I really don't agree with the thugs shooting people who are just exercising their speech on the sidewalk, shooting them from a rooftop in the face.
Starting point is 00:15:27 How do we make an excuse for that? How do we cheer that even worse? How do we cheer Trump doing extrajudicial killings, blowing up ships out in the ocean, at a whim? How do we cheer that? And yet people do. So James Madison, he says, we'll be proud of No King's Day. huge crowds marched in major cities smaller gatherings sprung up across small town USA for no king's protests against the Trump administration again as I said even in
Starting point is 00:15:56 Knoxville the largest crowd they've ever had so they said a new King's protest decrying Trump surveillance worries emerged this is from Reuters and it's like oh now you're paying attention to the surveillance state which was also put in by your guy Biden And see, that's it. It's the left, right march of tyranny. And these people are blind to it. That's why they keep switching them back and forth. They go from Trump to Biden to Trump, to somebody else, right?
Starting point is 00:16:26 And then everybody thinks it was the other team that did it to them, when their own team did it as well. People who take part in Saturdays' mass, No King's protests against Trump's administration, may be targeted for federal government surveillance and a range of technology that could include facial recognition, phone hacking, said civil libertarians.
Starting point is 00:16:46 Well, the left thought it was just great when Biden geofenced conservatives on January the 6th. But there's going to be an oh no moment for MAGA again as well as they're cheering this from Trump. So in preparation for this, you see the right-wing media. Here's a good example of this from Zero Hedge, the right-wing fear-mongering about what was going to be coming up. No Kings kicks off across the country as states prepare for violence.
Starting point is 00:17:13 there was no violence the billionaire funded no king's protest that's their fallback position right oh this whole thing was astroturf I'm sorry but you don't get astro turf seven million people in city after city people have legitimate griefs
Starting point is 00:17:33 gripes I should say about what Trump is doing and you know this is he is activating people that's what they should look at The right is blind to the unconstitutional authoritarian actions of Trump because they'll excuse any means because they want the ends. I want these illegal aliens out of here, and I don't care what you do. Shoot them in the street. I don't care.
Starting point is 00:17:57 And they don't realize how that is galvanizing the people who want to turn us into a Marxist state and people who are somewhere in the middle that's moving them into the radical left category and reaction. The events are supposed to be peaceful and lawful, but stick around. We'll be watching throughout the day while these future rocket scientists get their wiggles out. A similar protest in June descended into political violence. And so that did not happen. And just as you've seen the clips of Mike Johnson and Stephen Miller and Trump claiming that the cities are on fire, no, they weren't. Not until you got there. Officials in several states, and even after you got there,
Starting point is 00:18:41 officials in several states boosted security ahead of this in Virginia and in Texas you had the governor's ordering state troopers and guards in Austin for example the Texas governor said an anti-fah linked protest was about to go down this is the other thing too anti-faw is as anti-free speech as you can get as to say antifah and it stands for anti First Amendment FAA not fascist but First Amendment they're against free speech and i've told the story many times about when karen was at a protest at the abortion center there in austin's the first time i saw antifal they show up the guy's got a black sign to cover up her sign that says that um abortion is a black genocide and so he puts his black sign up in front of hers and she goes down low and he goes down low to cover it she goes like so the two of them are going up and down up and down he had nothing to say he just didn't want her to be able to speak anti first
Starting point is 00:19:41 amendment. But of course, the left always does a great job of labels, right? To them, of course, anybody is a fascist that is to the right, anywhere to the right of their radical leftist communism. But by calling themselves anti-fascist, I mean, who wants to really be a fascist, right? Nobody wants to say, no, I'm pro-fascist. Even the fascists deny that, just like the communists deny that the communists, they call themselves antifa or they call themselves socialists or whatever, progressives. But they have a, it's a great label. So you had a lot of people that were wearing,
Starting point is 00:20:17 I'm Antifa shirts, you had George Conway was showing up and they tried to make a big deal about it. Oh, look, look, he's Antifa. Well, the problem, as I said, is that you're pushing people into that camp. You know, the biggest recruiter for all this stuff is not George Soros. It's Donald Trump. So I don't think this is astroturf. I think there's too many people.
Starting point is 00:20:40 I think that Trump is motivating them. This is a pushback against militarization, against the posse comitatis law. And so we're seeing polarization. We're seeing Trump galvanizing and activating more people than Soros ever did. So in Maryland, Townsend University's chapter of the Young Democratic Socialist of America
Starting point is 00:21:03 demanded that the school declare itself a sanctuary campus. It's added again, this time activating, organizing, mobilizing, students as woke foot soldiers in the Democrat Party's latest, they were called a color revolution under the billionaire funded movement known as no kings. Well, you know, it's always this what aboutism. They'll come back and say, what about Soros? What about this? What about that? And just look at it for what it was. What happened there? There was no violence. And again, I see it as the as the trucker protests. And, you know, I didn't want to show up to this thing.
Starting point is 00:21:40 because I didn't want to be labeled as supporting what they support politically. I don't support anything they support politically. You know, I don't agree with MAGA people. They say that, you know, I would agree with the ends that they want. They're stated ends, but I am repulsed by the means that they're choosing. But when it comes to the left, I don't want the end result that they want. And, of course, they use a lot of the same means as well, but are reprehensible. What's unique about this protest at Townsend University is how the
Starting point is 00:22:10 these dark money NGOs can rile up young people using the same tactics U.S. intelligence agencies employ overseas in regime change operations. Well, let me just correct this for you, Zerahedge. The U.S. intelligence agencies don't limit their operations to overseas. That's a newsflash for you, is it? Where have you been? You paid any attention to what's going on in America? I mean, it's just the CIA, the NSA, does not limit their criminal actions to foreign lands. That's the big problem. That's why they should be gone. The right is just fooling themselves. This is an organic, genuine anger at Trump tactics. And they're whistling in the dark when they tell themselves that it's all just astroturf done by zero hedge. So what's more interesting is that when Townsend
Starting point is 00:22:58 administrative staff asked members of the young DSA for a list of speakers at today's event, citing safety concerns amid rising political violence, the socialist group refused to have their speakers vetted. Well, here we have the right demanding that everybody get permission for speech, they turn speech into a privilege and saying that you ought to be completely investigated if you dare to speak against the government. They used to be repulsed by that type of thing. Also, why are they investigating the speakers? Is it a matter of, oh, if only they had investigated Charlie Kirkmore, he wouldn't have been hurt. That's right.
Starting point is 00:23:41 I mean, what good is investigating the speaker is going to do for political violence? Yeah. Yeah, it's, none of this makes any sense, but this is the delusion of the right. They may have, the left may be deranged, by the right is delusional. They're deluding themselves about Trump. They're deluding themselves about the police state here. So the Townsend University students moved their no king's rally off campus, after a school official told them speaker's names would be run through federal government databases and vetted for security reasons.
Starting point is 00:24:14 Well, I guess I'm on a list for that kind of stuff as well. I don't agree with that. And I don't think that that's something that we ought to say, well, look, you know, they're obviously got something to hide, right? Didn't we talk about the fact that Larry Ellison and others were saying, well, it's going to be great when we have a surveillance state? Everybody's going to be on their best behavior because we'll be watching everything that you see. say. I think that is reprehensible. And now the right is applauding it. Students move the event fearing the speakers will be targeted by the Trump administration. Yeah, that's a real issue. Just like with Biden, which has threatened to pursue and punish liberal activist groups if their names are
Starting point is 00:24:54 shared with federal authorities. It's the same thing that Biden did on January the 6th. Why can't the right figure this out? I mean, they went through this. It isn't like you have to say, well, Historically, we have seen this, this, and this and other countries. You just went through all this stuff. And you want to push the left through it now. And you don't realize that left's going to do it to you again. I mean, they're making this an established precedent that we go after our political enemies when we went political office and we lock up our opponents and we go after the other side
Starting point is 00:25:26 and lock them up. I don't want to live in America like that. It's disgusting to me. So dangerous rhetoric has been. laid for the last 10 years, calling Trump and supporters fascists and Nazis, and dehumanizing political opponents, allowing armed left-wing radicals. Here they do the same thing, right? And the anti-5 people to mobilize and justify civil terrorism operations.
Starting point is 00:25:53 And so conservatives are embracing the left's hate speech ethic now. I don't like this. You're ramping up the rhetoric. Somebody's going to get hurt. Speech is violence. and we need to censor you and we need to shut down your rallies and your speeches and so forth. Look, the answer to bad speech is more speech. That's what Charlie Kirk did.
Starting point is 00:26:14 He said, you know, prove me wrong and we'll have a debate with this. You can't go down this path of shutting down the people that you disagree with. I don't care whether you're on the left or the right. And the left is just as bad about this. They call everybody fascists and Nazis and the right calls everybody Antifa. If you're out there protesting, then you're obviously anti-Fa. They're just as blind and just as prone to putting people in groups as the left is. How Charlie Kirk's murder was a condition to think that conservatives are fascists, said one person, Western Linsman.
Starting point is 00:26:51 Yeah, that's right. It's going to all end that way, right? And they said, communists are very good at this, said Zer Hedge. Well, again, the First Amendment is just like the Second Amendment. When you've got people are going to use guns to kill people, what you do is you have guns to defend yourself. When you have the First Amendment that is used that's going to spread lies and kill people and spread tyranny, you need to have more of the First Amendment. So the answer to somebody doing the wrong thing with guns or doing the wrong thing with speech is the same. You have more speech, you have more guns to protect yourself.
Starting point is 00:27:28 Otherwise, when you go down this path, you wind up living in North Korea. Korea. So the zero hedge finishes of North Korea saying we can't imagine a movement that's more steeped in idiocracy than citizens able to freely demonstrate in public against a so-called authoritarian king. Try that in North Korea. Well, it's not as if we haven't seen Trump use his police powers against people. And he's boasting that he'll do it even more. And so even as these idiots say their speech should be shut down and the feds should investigate them. I mean, this is the same article. These people are saying, look at these guys, these radical people.
Starting point is 00:28:15 They didn't want to give their names. They went somewhere so they wouldn't be investigated and vetted, investigated by the secret police in Washington. And they say, well, you can go out there and speak. Well, we see what's coming. that's what we're speaking against we see this is ramping up yes we're not at north korea level yet but i tell you when you have a situation where uh you know it came uncomfortably close with charlie kirk being killed to came uncomfortably close to the situation you had in north
Starting point is 00:28:47 korea where uh when the dear leader died everybody had to show up and cry and if you didn't cry loudly enough or longly enough you were uh you were target of investigation of the government Same thing happened here with Charlie Kirk. Unless you bow the need to him and pay proper respect, they came after you. What are you going to say, Lance? It's just so ironic that this article where they decry that they were allowed to do this ends with, oh, well, they couldn't have done that in North Korea. If only we were more like North Korea, huh?
Starting point is 00:29:21 Is that your take on this? If this were North Korea, we would have all of their names. They'd be investigated. It would be perfect. Right. This zero-hedge article is just as unself-aware of that hypocrisy, as you just point out, Lance, as all these MAGA people are. You know, when I look at this online. Well, how do we get to this point?
Starting point is 00:29:43 Well, we get to this point because Congress is not going to do anything. I liked this. This is some AI that was done by Newberger and changed the music. He had a song going on. There's a Mike Johnson kissing the ring. There you go. Yeah. Mr. King. He loves this. Donald Trump is really enjoying being king. It's good to be the king, he thinks. And seeing in AI after AI, he's putting himself up as king. And of course, in order to kiss the ring, Johnson had to say nonsense like this. I'll turn it back over to the leader. Take some questions. But we've heard, and many of you've reported already, this hate America rally that they have coming up for October 18th, the Antifa crowd and the pro Hamas crowd and the Marxists.
Starting point is 00:30:28 they're all going to gather on them all. We've got some House Democrats selling T-shirts for this event. It is an outrageous gathering for outrageous purposes, but the Democrats in the Senate have shown that they're afraid of that crowd, that they don't want to bow to them, bow the need of them, and they don't want to take incoming. You're afraid of Trump. And so they're willing to hold the American people hostage
Starting point is 00:30:50 so that they don't have to face an angry mob that's a big chunk of their base. Now, if that's a rumor, they need to come out and clarify, that it's not, but that is what we are hearing is their actual motivation and it is outrageous. You're hearing that's their motivation, right? Is there anybody more despicable than Mike Johnson? I mean, he has reached
Starting point is 00:31:10 levels of Lindsey Graham now in his despicability. This guy will do anything to kiss the rain. The most disgusting people out there. This hate America rally that they have coming up on October 18th, the Antifa crowd, the pro-Hamas crowd, the Marxists, all the labels I can think
Starting point is 00:31:26 of, right? Which is exactly what they talk about the left doing. Look, they called us Nazis. They called us fascists. So he just does the same thing. They're mirror bookends of each other, I'm afraid. Well, Fox News actually put a clip back to back of Mike Johnson talking about that hate America rally right there. And then they immediately followed it up with a smiling protesters waving American flags at these rallies that were happening. And that's newsworthy because it was done by Fox News. It drew the attention of CNN media reporter Brian Stelter. Again, Brian Stelter, one of the people who has focused on censoring other people who have different opinions. Nevertheless, on Saturday,
Starting point is 00:32:16 Fox News butted clips of House Speaker Mike Johnson, attacking the hate America and no kings rallies with peaceful protesters waving American flags. Stelter posted it to X. He said, Fox News just did this, by the way. As people walked by waving American flags, a Fox reporter in Atlanta tossed to a clip of Johnson's hate America venom, along with a Hakeem Jeffrey's soundbite, then back to normal people protesting in a local park. So it was Madison Scarpino, Fox News reporter, showed a video, peaceful, smiling protesters at the rally in Atlanta, while saying millions of Americans were expected to come out across the country. just here in Atlanta rally. Organizers expect up to 10,000 people. That's checking out from what we're seeing so far. You see the sea of people holding signs, chanting, several speakers so far. They're fired up, she said. What are they fired up about? Do they all get a paycheck from
Starting point is 00:33:14 George Soros? This is what the right is telling itself. That's why they're going to continue to go down this path. They're not going to be deterred by this because they're telling themselves why this is all just AstorTurf. No, people are fed up with the policies that Trump is doing. Even if you agree with the end result, you don't like the means that he is doing right. And he doesn't have to use those means. I've talked many times about what could be done about it.
Starting point is 00:33:38 For example, the guy who was in Chicago, and he gets hit by ice, and he doesn't have any, he's legal, he's got his paper, but he doesn't have his papers on him. He's working at a job. And so he doesn't have his identity papers. so they take him they find out that yeah he's really legal and then they find him $130 for not having his identity papers with him like we're under some kind of Nazi occupation the reality then is that he says I don't have $130 I'm living in a rent-free apartment because you know he's not
Starting point is 00:34:12 for the most but he's not working very much so again that's the issue stop giving that guy a rent-free apartment you don't need to send out Nazi thugs with mask and body armor to start kicking people, ramming people with their cars, shooting people in the face of pepper balls. That's not the right way to do this. That's the way that somebody who's a thug like Donald Trump, a mafia mob boss and somebody like Tom Homan would do it. But that's not the right way to do it.
Starting point is 00:34:41 You get rid of the welfare magnet, number one, and then you start to enforce the law. And instead of picking the people up and then catch and release, you actually deport them. What's so difficult about that? that. While many House Republicans are calling these hate America rallies, Jeffries calls it patriotism, Scarpina said, before playing a clip of him saying, I support the right of every single American to participate in rallies that will take place this week, showing up to express dissent against an out-of-control administration. That's as American as motherhood, baseball, and apple pie.
Starting point is 00:35:13 Well, I don't know where the Democrat Party is on apple pie and baseball, but I know they don't like motherhood. They've come out against motherhood. Scarpina added, We're going to be keeping an eye on all these protests nationwide, looking for any potential clashes as the governors of both Texas and Virginia, say they have their state National Guard troops ready to go, if needed. So, again, yes? It's just amazing how Trump can make these people that have, you know, been attacking the First Amendment for all this time seem like champions of free speech in the same way that he makes these people that were hiding. the Epstein documents seem like these champions of these poor victims of Epstein as they're pushing to get it released because they know he's not going to do anything. They can call him out on it because they know they're safe.
Starting point is 00:36:03 That's right. Yeah, that's the big problem of what Trump is doing. Because I said before, he's pushing people towards a radical left. And we don't share their agenda at all. And they will be just as authoritarian once they get the power as Trump is. And so that's the bad thing about it. He's making these people look good. You know, when he starts shutting down the First Amendment and censoring people, because he doesn't like what they say, whether it's about Israel, whether it's about him or his thuggish police, then he doubles down on the thuggishism.
Starting point is 00:36:33 So again, Johnson said, we call it the hate America rally. Well, that hasn't aged too well. George Conway comes out as Antifa at a no king's rally. This is from the Daily Caller. This is the way they're going to portray it. The left picks the terms, as I said before. You know, they want to be anti-fascist. And so we accept their narrative.
Starting point is 00:36:56 We can't come up with a term ourselves. So we just go with their labels. And it's very much like George. I mean, I have to feel like the protest would have been called the hate America rally if it were, you know, the left putting that label out. You would see that from every news media. It's the heat of America rally is coming up on such-and-such-a-date. Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:22 Well, you know, it's very much, this tribalism is very much like George W. Bush. You're either with us or you're with a terrorist. It's that type of thing that's happening always. And it's one of the reasons why, you know, when I absolutely detest the means that Donald Trump is using, I would not show up one of these rallies because of what George Carlin said. I hate groups of people. I hate people who have a group of people with a comment. purpose because pretty soon they have little hats and arm bands and fight songs and a list of people
Starting point is 00:37:56 they're going to visit at 3 a.m. We're in a pre-fascist state and I said when fascism comes to America it will not be wearing jackboots and brown shirts and it will be wearing Nike sneakers and it will have smiley face buttons on the on the hard rock treasure. And carrying a flag. Yeah, Oh, of course. Always that. Yeah, well, both sides play this game. Here's Daily Caller. Breaking.
Starting point is 00:38:22 No King's protester carries a sign that appears to show a guillotine. Do you remember how many times the left and the mainstream media showed pictures of that hangman's scaffolding and the hangman's news at January 6th? Ad nauseum, right? One person puts that up, and they all use that shot. and here you've got Daily caller on the right now saying somebody had a picture of a guillotine well oh we can't have that we got trouble right here in river city right this is the way they both operate so again one organizer brags to MSNBC I'm proud to say the people out here are antifa look we know that antifah is evil we know it's deceptive we know that doesn't support any
Starting point is 00:39:12 part of the First Amendment. It doesn't support protests of causes that they don't like. And Trump is pushing people into their arms. That's the issue here. And as I said, when they show up in costumes, they interviewed MSNBC. When they interviewed some people in costume, they interviewed a guy who was in a unicorn inflatable costume. And he says, I'm trying to look as ridiculous as we can to protest Trump being. ridiculous. And you know, I've got to say I'm not a fan of going to demonstrations. I think it's important to show up in mass and to say that we're against something. But every time you do that, you always got people who are going to show up. I remember whenever the Libertarian Party would
Starting point is 00:39:58 get together and have, you know, we had a convention or something and people would show up and it would be really embarrassing. It's like, I'm not with that guy in his underwear over there, okay? That's not what I'm about. And, uh, so. So, you know, you always wind up in a situation like that where even if they don't have agent provocateurs who come in and pick a fight with the cops where the cops don't pick a fight with people and it turns into a melee like January the 6th, even if you don't have that, you're going to have people who show up absolutely embarrass you. I have nothing to do with this guy or his cause. That's part of the issue of the Libertarian Party is ironically they make some of the best arguments for why someone needs to kind of come in and impose order on people. You see them dancing around there, and it's like, maybe unlimited freedom isn't what we need. That's right.
Starting point is 00:40:49 I remember when I went to Salt Lake City when they had the convention there, and it was, you know, as conservative as Utah is, they go out about to get as liberal and as libertine as they can. So they're scandly clothed and dancing around and doing all kinds of stuff and, you know, flaunting, smoking pot and all this other. It's like, man, it's like, what am I? doing here? I don't know who these people are. Anyway, this guy said, I've never interviewed a unicorn live on MSNBC. And he said, well, we're here peacefully protesting, looking as ridiculous as we can, just so maybe we can appeal to the president because he is a ridiculous leader that is normalizing abuse of power. We can't stand and act like nothing is happening. But again, it is, did it change anything? If it changed anything, what it did was Trump's action
Starting point is 00:41:42 are moving people towards Antifa. The no-kings protesters silent when Democrats rule as monarchs, says Just the News. And I agree with that. And but the other side of this is that the right is silent when Trump is ruling as an absolute monarch. Can we just skip the full truth here? You know, they'll tell you the truth about the other side, the lie about their side. And just the news usually does a pretty good job. But this is a one-sided article.
Starting point is 00:42:11 when anyone starts bleeding about dictatorship, they have to start with defining regal or king-like actions, and they need to look at the activity and the actions of recent presidents to get a sense of perspective. And so what he's saying is, well, Biden, what about Biden? What about this? It's this what aboutism. They can't police their own. Instead, they excuse their own because the other guys did it.
Starting point is 00:42:36 And that's how we ratchet everything down in this downward spiral that our society. is in. So one person on Mediaite says, well, the protests were great for social media, but not for meaningful change. And that's the way it always is. Reportedly drew seven million people across the nation, good for the organizers as attendance is growing, but this might also be a problem, not because the marchers aren't sincere, not because moral clarity doesn't matter, it does, but because every protest that doesn't lead to an organization might be worse than no protests at all. It gives a feeling of agency without the fact of it.
Starting point is 00:43:19 It lets us post, share, and check the box that I did something while the machinery of power keeps humming unbothered. This is the trap of protest in the age of algorithm. It's not the demonstrators are performative. All politics involves performance. But the performance has become the point. The march happens. The signs get photographed. The videos go viral. Everybody goes home feeling like they did something. Meanwhile, nothing changes except your feed, which has already moved on. Every protest becomes a pressure valve, releasing energy that might otherwise build into something lasting. Political scientists, too fecky, calls us tactical freeze. The paralysis that follows a viral high. They said the Women's March drew four million people and built no
Starting point is 00:44:07 durable structure. Occupy Wall Street absolutely electrified a generation, then entirely evaporated. And of course, he's looking at things on the left. This is mediaite. I see the same thing with the Tea Party march. I remember when the Tea Party march happened and there was a huge number of people in Washington and the media tried to downplay the number of people that was there, but it was big. But again, it had no, there was no real organization that came out of it. He had a lot of people made a lot of money. Glenn Beck really. milk the Tea Party stuff, but there wasn't any defined principles even about it. And so, you know, I said, so you're taxed enough already. Are you? Well, what's the problem then?
Starting point is 00:44:49 Do you need to cut spending or just cut taxes? And where do you cut spending? What are your priorities? What do you stand for? Do you stand for the Constitution? On and on, right? There was nothing about it that was defined. And the same thing is true of these other movements. And so he looks at it, He says, movements that actually change the country are built on institutions that endured between spectacles, voter drives when no cameras are rolling, legal strategies that took years, local chapters meeting in church basements, doing the slow, and glamorous work of accumulating power, one conversation at a time. He says, the march on Washington was an exclamation point on a sentence that took a decade
Starting point is 00:45:30 to write. The march was the culmination and not the plan. But Trump's allies are not marching. They've been organizing, and they're on school boards, election boards, election commissions, and state legislatures. They're passing laws, installing loyalists, dismantling oversight. They're disciplined, hierarchical, and relentless. The progressive movement is networked, expressive, and episodic. Maga has been hard at work building a movement, while progressive seemed content and posting a cleaver sign on Instagram.
Starting point is 00:46:01 And so, again, it is, it's organization, but I think it's important to have organization to have a principle. The problem with MAGA is it's organized, but it's organized around what? It's organized around a king, and it's organized around an authoritarian move towards power. It's not organized to restore the Constitution. Just take a look at what Trump is doing about the people who criminally should be prosecuted. for the lawfare that they did against him. He should be doing it in a way to restore the rule of law. Instead, what he's doing is he wants it to be seen as personal revenge.
Starting point is 00:46:42 Don't mess with me, or I'll get you. And all that does is escalate this in a downward spiral, so that the next guy will do the same thing. And so it becomes about accruing power to the presidency rather than taking power away from these people who have abused it. So LifeSight News says Soros funded the no-kings protest attack, America, and Christianity, not just Trump. Well, the reality is that this is, you may not like the people that are there, and I don't agree with Move On or the human rights campaign or any of these other people. But their main grief about all this is that, you know, what's this about not having kings?
Starting point is 00:47:23 Kings are good. Well, let's say, you know, look, look at the people who are funding this. And so they got all these people on the left who are giving millions of dollars to some of these organizations. And I look at it and I say, well, how is this different than the right-wing billionaires who are giving millions of dollars to Charlie Kirk's organization, Turning Point? You know, that was their political cause.
Starting point is 00:47:47 It doesn't matter if you're going to allow that kind of money to be thrown around. It doesn't matter whether it's left-wing or right-wing. It just gets people upset. That's not a lot of people criticize about Charlie. Kirk. Oh, look, he was funded by the Koch brothers or he was funded by this group or that group or Israel or whatever. Get beyond who is funding them. That may tell you where this guy is going to be pushing people, but that doesn't necessarily tell the entire story. I think all this focusing on the funding stuff is sort of tied in with how they were trying to make this into
Starting point is 00:48:22 some big violent thing because there have been violent stuff funded with suspicious funding. let's say, by people like Soros. And they don't do anything in those cases. A lot of that happened under Trump, and he didn't do anything to stop those particular people that were funding it to go after any of the organization or anything. That's right. Instead, they're going to say, oh, well,
Starting point is 00:48:47 if these people that more or less agree with that guy are protesting, then naturally it's going to be just as violent as the other times that we didn't do anything. So therefore, we've got to come after all of you. And, of course, Trump, when it was being funded, by Soros, Black Lives Matter and all the rest of the stuff in the summer of 2020. Trump did nothing as cities really were burning. And now the cities are not burning. He's doing this stuff. And again, it goes round and around. So, Lysite News says, no kings might be a catchy slogan,
Starting point is 00:49:15 but it is a sinister phrase. In the Old Testament, God raised up King Solomon, King David. Jesus Christ came to establish the kingdom of God. He is the king of kings and Lord of Lords. That's why I said before that the founders were not against Jesus. They made it clear, no king but Jesus. And they did not want to have earthly kings. And that's what these people should be saying. But of course, they're not. What was it the Old Testament?
Starting point is 00:49:47 What did God say in the Old Testament about kings when the people of Israel demanded one? That's right. He said that through Samuel. They told him, he said, yeah, well, you want a king because you don't trust me, right? And I'll tell you what that king's going to do. He's going to take your men and send him to war. He's going to steal your money, tax everything. He's going to enslave your daughters to work for him.
Starting point is 00:50:09 That's what governments do in general. They rebel like the devil did against order, against hierarchy, against the immutable fact that Christ is king, not only over each of them, but also over society by natural right. Well, I would say that Trump is the rebel against authority, because the authority is the constitution and he's rebelling against it and it doesn't matter if Biden did it Biden's not present right now I protested Biden when he did it I'll protest Trump when he's doing it now we need to speak out against that he doesn't get a pass to do this because Biden did it let's get over that people on the right need to get over that the reality is is that the king is the law the king is
Starting point is 00:50:50 the constitution that they swear allegiance to well um the uh for all the people who are saying that this is radical anti-fah communists they can't keep their story straight on that either it's just like the zero hedge thing that said well these people should be investigated and they should be turned their name should be given to the government but they should be glad they don't live in a place like north korea when they're pushing for north korea well the other thing that we see from all this is everybody's talking about how these are a bunch of old boomer protesters it was a very amusing day yesterday there about 100 000 is the estimate inside the bellway where i am and it did look like a water aerobics class in many of these places where people were on their way to the early bird
Starting point is 00:51:34 special they broke it off at four so they could get to the early bird special it was my generation it was the boomers and woodstock was a long time ago this was a little bit like woodstock with a smattering of their grandkids thrown in and that's fox news and again i have seen over and over again, people mocking the socioeconomic status and the age of the people who show up to the Trump rallies. Oh, look, it's a bunch of old boomers, you know, and red caps. The same tactics of the left and the right. Do you realize how much alike these people are? They want the same end, folks. They want to have us under their thumb. And they will come up with any kind of narrative. And so again, in this article from Zero Hedge, they list all of the left-wing
Starting point is 00:52:25 funders of this kind of stuff and say, yeah, but on the other hand, so this is all being done as a color revolution by George Soros, and on the other hand, it's a bunch of old aging Vietnam war protesters. So the, again, they break it down $295 million to the No King's 2.0 partners and organizations. But again, look at both sides are doing this. Mostly unhinged white baby boomers dragged out of their retirement homes, they said. But the money and the dangerous radicals, right? Right, just can't make up their mind.
Starting point is 00:53:03 What to say about this? And on and on it goes. 90 plus percent of the crowd is white and filled with retirees, said Eric Darry. White baby boomers who could have been home spending time. of their grandkids instead hit the streets on Saturday and you can't make this up said another that's actually zero hedge so again uh were they paid by soros to come out because you can't keep your narrative straight can you boomers at the no king's demonstration still think they're the cool kids fighting the man like they were during the vietnam war protests no the reality is is that trump is motivating
Starting point is 00:53:40 these people more than soros fueled by billionaires no kings presents a call Revolution and Style mobilization against Trump. Another reactionary article from Zero Hedge where they have absolutely no sense of history, not even history of four years ago. That's the saddest thing about this. Over and over again, we see this. And then you had articles about the furries who were joining the anti-Trump No Kings protests in D.C. You know, you had the same situation at the convoy protest in Canada.
Starting point is 00:54:14 you know people were showing that it was a festival they were had kids they had costumes and all the rest of stuff and uh trudeau relentlessly labeled them as radical terrorists same playbook always used by the people and authority it doesn't matter what they say whether they're left wing or whether they're right wing they always use the same script well let's take a look at some of the comments also they couldn't find a picture of a furry for the like front of their article about that they've just got a guy in a comical suit yeah they have a lot of people in inflatable costumes and uh you know they uh you gotta make sure you don't fall down on one of those things because it's really hard to get up from what i've seen i've never been in one i don't
Starting point is 00:54:59 think i ever will be also i hate to be the bearer of bad news but the uh there's a lot of furry fascists like gay furry fat like there's a strange amount of crossover there i don't understand how it happens but if you spend enough time online, you will see a fur costume in an SS uniform. It just is something you will see. I don't know what to tell you. Well, I think it's also true of communists. It's just any super weird mental illness tends to go hand in hand with other mental illness.
Starting point is 00:55:31 Extremist idea, yes. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, we got extremists on left and right, as I said so many times. If you look at the Nolan chart, you start to get an idea that Stalin and Hitler are not polar opposites of each other. They both fall in the same little area because they're authoritarian. And these people just don't see the authoritarianism of their own side. They think they're exactly the opposite of the other side and they're not. They're more like than they are.
Starting point is 00:55:57 Also, you think, you know, these furries that get into the fascist, Nazi stuff, you'd think they'd all be German shepherds, but for some reason, they're not. I don't. A lot of Rottweilers. We've got DG8. Thank you very much, DG8. It says, David, it's amazing to see these people all radicalized over this bogus two-party illusion. The left-right paradigm is a joke.
Starting point is 00:56:18 It's basically become a prison for people who have no discernment. That's right. Before you know it, people are wearing caps. And then other people put on armbands and t-shirts. It's just, you know, whatever they want to do. And they all think that they're in a righteous cause. That's why you've got to be able to harness these people. You've got to be the one that directs them.
Starting point is 00:56:37 Atomic Dog, David, Amazon Web Services has a massive outage causing many sites to be disrupted. They're back up at some site still having issues. That's probably what's going on to the re-stream then. Yeah, yeah, thank you. Makes sense. Will to box, wow, an actual crowd didn't see that for lockdowns. That's right. I look at this stuff.
Starting point is 00:56:54 It's like, why are people picking these particular types of issues? I agree. I don't like what Trump is doing. But I thought what happened with lockdown was far more egregious, actually. But, you know, I can see the issues with this as well. I think it's just a matter of the types of people that typically would protest civil liberties were all just put to sleep by Trump with the lockdown stuff? I think they were scared to death. They want to believe everything the government tells them
Starting point is 00:57:22 and the government told them that they're going to die. And so then they got angry at those of us who didn't play along with the scam rather than the people who were putting a scam against them like Trump. Even though it was Trump, they didn't get upset with him. Once someone has bought in, it's much, much harder to convince them they were wrong. You know, the sunk cost fallacy. Well, no. But when you look at this, I mean, you know, the lockdown, that was 100% Trump. And the left, even though they hated Trump, they went along with that, again, because they were just scared to death.
Starting point is 00:57:55 DG8, says, David, notice, they always bring up that clown Soros. Never forget APAC funds, Hakeem, Jeffries, Nadler, Schumer, Biden, Kamala, and more. Yeah. They fund people who want to destroy America. Queen of the Juice. While we're Magas so mad, we were protesting corrupt cops using illegal surveillance and digital IDs, scooping up everyone's information in a dragnet. Bull dog.
Starting point is 00:58:21 Trump's doing a hell of a job on that peace plane he has. That's right. It's looking more and more peaceful by the day. You must learn of our peaceful ways. And that's why I didn't cover it for a couple of days because I knew it wasn't going to last. I figured if I just waited a day or two, it'll already erupt. Well, it lasted more than a day or two, but it's already erupted. They're already shooting at each other.
Starting point is 00:58:41 so lasting bulldog no footstep 7-7 there is no political solution for a spiritual battle that's right geese busters good to see you geese busters hope you're doing well many of those flock cameras are installed at many home depot parking lots will never shop at home depot again facial recognition is used in all of their stores really i didn't know that yeah yeah no idea ephesion 612 i agree Trump is activating these people just as he did on J6th. Queen of the Juice, the rally was a dragnet for political dissidents. I was already profiled
Starting point is 00:59:14 so I didn't care. They've got our number. Ephesians 612. I feel like the No King's rally was a great opportunity for Trump's tech bros surveillance companies to track and trace people via their smartphone, sponsored by both parties. Yeah, and of course
Starting point is 00:59:30 Biden already did that. Did that on January 6th. Probably. There's also the fact that if you have a smart if you have a digital presence chances are your political beliefs leanings affiliations are all already known yes that's right they don't necessarily need you to show up to a rally that says i believe this specific thing they can tell just based off your metadata how many different right wing memes have you interacted with how many left winged what have you looked at what has caught your attention if you're more likely to stay on a video that's left leaning you're probably left leaning if you're more likely to stay on a video that's right leaning you're probably right leaning and you do that once or twice that doesn't say anything, but you do that 100 times, 200 times. They can very easily and very quickly hone in and pin down on where they think you fall on the spectrum and what you're likely to react to. Exactly right. That's what it's all for. That's what it's all for. Yeah. And that's why they want the AI stuff with Palantir to have information access to all the different
Starting point is 01:00:26 databases. Yeah, because they don't have physically enough people to sit around and do that, but you put the AI on it and it's actually pretty good at that sort of thing. And if it hallucinates a crime you didn't commit, who cares? They're the government. They're not going to, it's not going to matter to them. Audi, M-R-R-R-the- Hate America Rally, epic BS. That's right. It sure is.
Starting point is 01:00:48 It's just amazing how pathetic both sides of this stuff are, Ate-America rally, yeah. Yeah. Francine, what is the percentage of MAGA that answer? I have nothing to hide when it comes to surveillance. You know? Yeah. And what portion of them is lying? The really stupid thing is they'll be like, oh, I have nothing to hide against Trump.
Starting point is 01:01:13 So, you know, so long as Trump is doing the surveillance, I'm fine with it. Yeah. Queen of the Juice. Nobody paid me to protest. You'll see, you should have gotten, you should have gotten paid. You could have at least, no. So say, if you divide $7 million into the $265 million the Soros has out there, you got chipped. At least giving you a few bucks for that.
Starting point is 01:01:35 Exactly. But that's the whole point. You know, they can't keep their stories straight. It's this constantly evolving narrative. Oh, well, they're all paid by Soros, and then you wind up with seven million people. Oh, it's a bunch of anti-foss stuff. Then they complain. It's a bunch of old folks who just got out of their retirement home, and they took in this before they went to their early bird special.
Starting point is 01:01:56 Well, it's one of the early bird specials. Anyway, I mean, they can't keep their stories straight, right? you're you know you're radical anti-fod terrorists or your a bunch of boomers who are doing this when they should be with their grandkids that's the narrative that they keep putting out there over and over again he's too tall too short too fat too thin niburu 2029 the infantile sheep will are stuck in the mindset of my dog is better than your dog mentality while parading along under the delusion of protesting well i'm going to we take a quick break when we come back, we're going to take a look at when it really gets infantile. And that's when Trump gets
Starting point is 01:02:37 involved with his memes. And the people that responded, this is what really got me fired up over the weekend when I saw Trump's video about his jet plane dropping crap on people. And I, you know, I just look at this. It's like, what does this tell us about this guy? He's not a leader in any way, shape or form. So, yeah. Free, free 56. 90% of the No Kings people went happily along with the COVID authoritarianism, and they cheered it, and they demanded it.
Starting point is 01:03:11 You're absolutely right. It is the, there's a strong delusion and derangement on both sides. Yeah, just so long as their guy is the one that's doing it, they're okay with it. Also, a little bit of more useless information for you. If they wanted it to be a furry, it shouldn't have been a dinosaur, people in the dinosaurs are called scaly's so do with that what you will i have to know it and now you do too scaly's yeah i don't know the dinosaurs didn't have fur that's what i'd like to know you know i go back and i got no proof this evolutionary biology you know and if you look at the books
Starting point is 01:03:45 they draw their their their dinosaurs or whatever they found with the uh skeletons they always draw them as like gray or green and having skin or scales or whatever and it's like how do you know I mean, if you were to go find a skeleton of a lion, for example, would you know that the males had mains? Would you know that a zebra had stripes? You know, God doesn't make the world gray and green like that. He has a lot of imagination. And so we don't know what these animals are. I mean, look at how incredible modern lizards are.
Starting point is 01:04:17 Just, yeah, they've got all different kinds of colors. We've got chameleons. How would you ever know looking at a skeleton about the Madagascar camsards? millions that have the eyes that rotate in opposite directions and the long tongue that goes out and they can change and all these different splashes of color you know well we're going to take a quick break folks and we'll be right back to talk about uh trump's take on and the right and what they were doing in response to it's just unbelievably childish I'm going to be
Starting point is 01:04:58 I'm going to be a Oh my I'm going to be I'm going to I'm going and I'm I'm
Starting point is 01:05:13 I'm and I don't know what I'm going to be able to be. I know. I know. I know. I know. I know.
Starting point is 01:05:50 I know. Oh. You're listening. to the David Knight Show. Hello, it's me, Volodymyr Zelensky. I'm so tired of wearing these same t-shirts everywhere for years. You'd think with all the billions, I've skimmed off America. I could dress better.
Starting point is 01:06:36 And I could, if only David Knight, would send me one of his beautiful gray MacGuffin hoodies or a new black t-shirt with the 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.
Starting point is 01:07:01 I'd wear something other than green military cosplay 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 And the sweet sounds of Motown Find them on the oldies channel at
Starting point is 01:07:31 APSRadio.com Welcome back folks. Stealth Patriot, thank you very much. So say what they want, but at least the no king's protesters are doing something. Maga is busy trusting the plan while the church is engaged in idolatry. I agree. I think it's good to show up and be counted.
Starting point is 01:07:50 Like I said, I look at this stuff, and it's like, I don't want to send the wrong message that I'm with Antifa. I'm not with Antifa or their goals that they choose to have out there. But I think it's good to have a massive protest. That's why, you know, we talk about Occupy Peace, and Gerald Stinty can't get anybody to show up for peace. Just showing up in large numbers. And what he does is he has a rally there where people talk about why we should have peace and not war, specifically about and he had a great lineup of speakers we can't get people to show up even for something like that and so you know i i always am kind of wary of protests because a you know
Starting point is 01:08:31 who am i going to be grouped with and seen as buying into their agenda and that's why i'm not joiner in any of this kind of stuff but uh the other part of it is also that you you never know if there's going to be instigators on either side of this that are going to start violence and then People get blamed for it like we saw in January the 6th. And so that's frequently the case. But this is widespread enough that I guess they didn't do anything to try to set up agent provocateurs anywhere.

I don't know if it was somebody that's affiliated with him, but he put it out on his social
Starting point is 01:10:39 media and it went viral. And it became a rallying point for the right to push back their frustration against the massive protest here's the video that trump put out king trump it says on the jet and he's wearing a crown hmm yeah he's dropping extrament on the massive crowds of people there and i said when i saw that it made me really angry yeah it motivated me so i said this This video is the perfect metaphor. Trump as King, dumping excrement on America. You know, excrement like destroying farms with tariffs,
Starting point is 01:11:28 militarizing and federalizing police in the cities, starting wars, pricing fights with every, picking fights with every country, including those with whom we have trade surpluses. Capricious arbitrary, constantly shifting tariff rates that destroy small and medium-sized businesses, manufacturers, and farmers. And, of course, his wars. And there he is in a jet, dropping bombs on people.
Starting point is 01:11:51 He loves that whole metaphor, isn't he? Yeah, he can conduct war from a distance on all of us. I said, while RFK Jr. will not stop his MRNA poison from Trump's previous reign, for the Magatards who say that I've gone liberal, what do you want to conserve? Is there anything in America or the Constitution? Is there any business, any industry that you would want to conserve, or is it okay for? Trump to lock them down or to sanction them to death with tariffs. I want to conserve the Constitution, peace, prosperity, and the rule of law.
Starting point is 01:12:27 Maga has become the libs that they say that they're fighting. They are perpetually offended mob that seeks to impose its capricious whims on everyone else and foolishly believes that the precedents they set won't be used against them. That's as true of Maga as it is of the left. they want to enforce what they want on everybody else. And so you saw that one guy that was very noticeable there. It was actually a left-wing influencer, Harry Sisson, who was specifically put in that video. And he said, can a reporter please ask Trump why he posted an AI video of himself dropping poop on me from a fighter jet.
Starting point is 01:13:10 He said, that'd be great to know. Thanks. And then Senator Brian Schatz said, seriously, why would the president post an image on the internet of air-dropping feces on American cities? Ironic, we've got Shats talking about this. That's right. He would be the one that everybody quotes. All the world's a stage. Trump shares AI video of himself bombing no king's protesters with manure.
Starting point is 01:13:41 And he's doing it. as king. And he has embraced himself in the role of king with many of these memes several times. He said, he said, they say, they're referring to me as a king. I'm not a king, he said on Fox News. But just a day later, he shared the AI generated video of himself in a fighter jet with the words King Trump written across the jet. And he's wearing a crown. He also used AI to create a Time magazine cover of himself and a crown, which is captioned, long live the king so he's really enjoying all this because it's all performance uh so the um he wears the um wheels a sword uh in another video uh as a song with a word's hail to the king plays and nancy
Starting point is 01:14:31 Pelosi and others bow to him uh this is um with anybody else you would say it's a joke but with With Trump, it's not. It's a fantasy. New York City Police Department said more than 100,000 people peacefully attended the No King's protest in America's most populous city. If crowd estimates hold, the event was the largest civil action in the U.S. since the first Earth Day 55 years ago. No major incidents or arrest reported at other gatherings during the day. So, again, it was across the country. And this is from Steve Watson.
Starting point is 01:15:10 You know, I hate to see people that I worked with chair the police state and authoritarian actions and these unconstitutional actions. Kimmel said Trump is pretending that there's chaos for a military takeover. And, you know, Kimmel, that phrase, he's absolutely right about that. I've said that myself many times. Trump pretends that there's an emergency about everything so that he can do executive orders and rule. like a king. And he's pretending that there is chaos when there is none, just like Trudeau pretended that there was chaos and there was a violent faction when there was none. And yet, Steve Watson, takes him on, tries to make the case that there really is chaos and there really
Starting point is 01:15:55 is a need for a military takeover. Like I said, I don't understand what's the matter with these info wars people. You know, we had documentary after documentary about the police state. And when I got there, I started working on asymmetric warfare. How I was concerned that Obama was setting up the military, training them to fight in the cities, giving them MRAPs and all the rest of the stuff. Remember that? And, of course, Info Wars is against it because it was Obama. But now that it's Trump, they're for it. How disgusting is that?
Starting point is 01:16:28 So, Kimmel was back on the air despite having abysmal ratings and said, there's no chaos in Portland, none. There's no chaos in Chicago. There was no chaos in L.A. They're pretending that there's chaos as a pretense for military takeover. And he's absolutely right about that. And Watson is wrong. The comments fly in the face of documented repeated ambushes, assaults, and coordinated threats against the ICE agents, particularly in Portland and Chicago.
Starting point is 01:16:57 Show us the evidence, Watson. You do that frequently. Why don't you grab some social media stuff and show us the clips of how people are getting violent with ice or is it the other way around i've seen it the other way around quite frankly uh trump dumps poop on the king's no king's protesters in an epic video says wndd they think it's epic i don't think it's epic many people loved it and that really got me upset as well but of course w and d and bright bart and you know in for words they think this is great trump trolls a no king's protest with a top gun style meme. And again, it just, he celebrates war. He plays the military industrial complex. This is a
Starting point is 01:17:43 chicken hawk, if ever there was one. He's as bad as Lindsey Graham. And then you got people out there when he, when he boasts about blowing ships out the water without any due process in violation of U.S. and international law, you got idiots like this celebrating him. Ro, row, row. Throw your boat gently down the stream. We dropped a bomb right on their heads, the best you've ever seen. The fake news and the left are melting down and throwing fits. Juvenile. Because we took these bad Umbres out and blew them all to bits.
Starting point is 01:18:23 The FAAFO president has a message. Okay, I've had enough of that child. I've had enough of that. Of course, Trump himself was putting this kind of stuff out. uh in june when he bombed iran he went back to john mccain remember when john mccain was singing uh bomb bomb bomb bomb bomb iran to the tune of uh barbaran of the beach boys Join his B-2s Yeah, I'm going to
Starting point is 01:18:56 Yeah, I'm really Yeah, I'm really in the ceiling Yeah, I'm really Bomb-Bom-Bum-Barrie Went to a mosque Gonna throw some rocks Tell me how you told I'm going to put you in a box Yeah, I'm really disgusted with these people
Starting point is 01:19:14 you know again he's going to bomb and kill people and celebrate it and laugh about it and so are his people and he's going to drop excrement on us as well he's done that in so many different ways well michael keaton spoke to maga i like what he had to say it's the same thing i would say to them hey hi michael you know for some of you folks who uh guys mostly i guess who are thinking about attending a rally with musk and trump um they don't really respect you they laugh at you behind your back they think you're stupid they don't want to hang out with you they have nothing in common with you they're not your bros they hang out with upstein i'm telling you when trump years ago i guess said i could shoot somebody on fifth avenue that still vote for me basically what he's saying
Starting point is 01:20:07 in parentheses is these people are so stupid they're so dumb they'd still vote you for me. Yep, that's right. They have no respect for you. Trust me. That's right. They have no respect for you. And that's what he did.
Starting point is 01:20:20 He wound up doing much worse than shooting one person on Fifth Avenue. He shot tens of millions, hundreds of millions of people worldwide with vaccines and killed millions of them. And people still cheer him for that. Well, we're going to take a quick break. And when we come back, you want to read some of these comments here? Also, when we come back, I'm going to talk about the reality of what's happening. They think you're stupid. and you are stupid if you cheer this nonsense because what you're going to get is the boot of the
Starting point is 01:20:49 government stomping on your face forever, as Orwell said. There's also the fact that just Trump does this sort of shuck and jive of, oh, I'm a king, I'm this, I'm that. And if someone truly right wing were to come and say, I'm going to establish a right-wing authoritarian state, you know, we could have an argument over that. We could debate the merits back and forth. I would still be against it. But you could argue like, all right, I'm going to give you 50 years of right-wing policies.
Starting point is 01:21:21 Everything you've ever wanted. We're going to sacrifice a little bit of freedom here and there. But it's going to be a right-wing authoritarian state. Trump isn't even right-wing. No. He sits around and he plays this sort of like, oh, wouldn't it be great if I was a king? Would it be? No, it wouldn't.
Starting point is 01:21:35 He doesn't actually accomplish anything of merit. Well, it's like what he did at the beginning there saying, you're going to be a dictator for a day, maybe. Yeah, you'll like it, you know. So I'm not a dictator, but I'm a dictator. I'm not a king, but I'm a king. You know, he plays this back and forth. And he inoculates himself. He makes a joke out of it so that when he actually does act like a dictator and he does act
Starting point is 01:21:55 like a king, then, you know, he's inoculated. He's accruing more and more power to himself without ever making any effective long-term meaningful change, which he is willing to just and immediately hand over to whoever comes next. And that's what we're going to talk about when we come back after this break. We're going to talk about how he is accruing power in a very dangerous way. Everything that he's doing is dangerous enough to rule by executive order, but then the executive orders that he's putting in are even worse. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:22:24 We have some comments. Don't frag me, bro. Thank you very much. That's very generous. We really do appreciate it. Yes, thank you. Check out Utah pushing hard on digital ID because you have the right to secure your digital ID. All states will follow.
Starting point is 01:22:38 Let us know how full the tank is. Thank you for your conviction. Yes, thank you. Well, we're just a little bit over 50% right now. So we'll give you a more exact figure tomorrow. But I haven't exactly totaled up. I'm just looking at some of what we picked up at the post office box over the weekend. If we don't make it by the end of the month, I'm going to bust out the grifting Southern Preacher Act and just sit here. Oh, brothers and sisters, I can feel the spirit of generosity. We didn't get on sorrow and use somebody who's dead to do that.
Starting point is 01:23:11 so we'll talk about that later people are using they've got Elvis Presley in every possible imaginable movie role they have put him in and he's on Star Trek he's in Star Wars he's in this he's in that they better not use uh hitchcock or any of that oh yeah that's right yeah you use hitchcock the lawyers will lawyer up and come after you they will shut you down yeah we even did a cartoon character I mean it wasn't even real so I'm wondering you know how the people get away with this. I guess it's different somehow with Elvis. He doesn't have an agent now that he's been dead for 50 years. Well, yeah. But they're doing so much. You believe Elvis is dead? Come on. You're doing so much. Making that, you suggested, why don't you just use actual images of
Starting point is 01:23:57 Yeah, that's right. Of Hitchcock in the clips of it. It's like, no, I don't want to do that because what if people have a problem with that? I want to use a cartoon caricature of him since you know, that's been done for ages and no one has ever had a problem with it. That's right. And I still say it wouldn't have been a problem, but it also would have been a major legal thing that we didn't want to mess with. Yeah, that's the thing. You know, we sue somebody, just like Trump suing so many people.
Starting point is 01:24:24 You know, it isn't about the fact that he could win. He's not going to win this Wall Street Journal lawsuit. You know, they reported on the fact that there was a letter from Trump to Jeffrey Epstein on his birthday book and reported the contents of it. And it was exactly as they said. And first of all, he sued him. And then even after the book was released and people could see that the description was accurate, he's still continuing the suit. Because it's just about punishing people.
Starting point is 01:24:53 It's not about whether or not you're going to prevail. You punish them by making them hire lawyers and go through all this lawfare. There's also the fact that even if you're 100% in the right, you have to have enough money to fight the other person. if they have a significantly larger war chest than you do, they can just win by default by dragging it out long enough. That's right. If they can bankrupt you, they win by default. And if they got a lot of good lawyers, you know, they can win on technicality.
Starting point is 01:25:18 It's just like what I signed about with Alex, right? You know, he made the decision that he wasn't going to comply with discovery. And so he lost on those terms with that. But, you know, even if you are trying to comply with the process, they can still entrap you. Yeah. Doug a lug. Thank you very much, Doug Lug. The gas gauge is at half.
Starting point is 01:25:38 Let's add some fuel to the tank. Don't forget, hit your like buttons. That's right. Brothers and sisters, hit that like button. Real Jason Barker. Thank you very much, Jason. Here are some gas, not from Venezuela, I promise. Valera, I guess.
Starting point is 01:25:53 I think those stations are wrong by Venezuela. Thank you, Jason. Appreciate it. Nice of the storm. And DGA. David, the people who would normally stand up to government tyranny are too busy making excuses for Trump as he usher the Great Reset and the Police Surveillance State. Trump is the deep state. He absolutely is.
Starting point is 01:26:10 Yeah. The deep, technocratic, globalist state, he's doing everything all these other people did. As a matter of fact, he's leading the charge, and they can't see it. Yeah. They refuse to see it. Jerry Alitalo. Donald Trump's explanation for his jet fighter dropping diarrhea bombs on protesters' meme should be sufficient for triggering 25th Amendment removal from office. DGA. David Trump's video dropping feces on those people's how D.C. feels. about our constitutional right to address our grievances. That's right. That's right. Username, 012, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9. At the end of Trump's first term, people were hoarding toilet paper.
Starting point is 01:26:48 Best president of my lifetime, that's right. That's good, yeah. Nathan Bedford Forrest 1865. Trump is just another actor playing his assigned role. He and his family will be in safe havens when the walls come tumbling down on all of us. He's an accelerator to expedite the end of America. Yes. Guard Goldsmith, Liberty Conspiracy.
Starting point is 01:27:09 You can find Guard Goldsmith at Liberty Conspiracy on Rumble, live at 6 p.m. weekdays, as well as on substack at Guard Goldsmith. So, wait, in that AI, Trump dumped Alex Jones' latest InfoWor's content on the crowd. Yeah, that's right. Yeah, we got to, yeah, Alex is all in on this police state stuff now. It's amazing. I guess they just, all of his police state documentaries are now excrement, I guess. probably taking those out of the store.
Starting point is 01:27:37 Can't have those around. For Love of the Road, that's an old clip of Michael Keaton. That's right. It's aged pretty well, hasn't it? I know. That was when Trump and Musk were together, and they were doing the election stuff, and he was telling people who were shoring up in large numbers.
Starting point is 01:27:53 He doesn't care about you. And it still is true. He doesn't care about us. We can see that even more clearly now after the nine, ten months that he's been in office second time. Francine says, Like Keaton has no respect for me, too. That's right.
Starting point is 01:28:08 It's not that the Hollywood elite have any respect or any love for the common American people. They're just willing to point it out when someone they don't like also doesn't. And I'm Marty. Thank you very much. We appreciate it. Yes, thank you, Marty. He says, here's ten bucks. They don't have to hear Jimmy Swaggart.
Starting point is 01:28:23 Okay, folks. Who's Jimmy Swaggart? Televangelist. Ah, okay. He doesn't want to hear your televangelist begging for money. I have sin. So, okay, folks, we're going to take a quick break and we'll be right back. You're listening to the David Knight Show.
Starting point is 01:29:20 You're listening to the David Knight Show. like the Eagles on a dark desert highway the cars and Huey Lewis in the news they say the
Starting point is 01:29:42 hot rock and roars to beat you'll love the classic hits channel at APS Radio download our app or listen now at APSRadio.com This is the end
Starting point is 01:30:00 beautiful friend Yeah, Trump really likes war, doesn't he? It's surprising he never went to one. He had a chance. He worked pretty hard to avoid it. The end of everything that stands the end. I'll never look into your eyes again. It's a very unsafe crisis, and we're going to straighten that one by one.
Starting point is 01:30:46 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. That's what their military is going to look like soon. The Trump administration's military occupation of America. This was an article from anti-war.
Starting point is 01:31:50 Earlier this month, Trump threatened to unleash the armed forces on more American cities during a rambling address to top military brass. He told hundreds of generals and admirals, gathered to hear him that some of them would be called upon to take a primary role at a time when his administration has launched occupations of American cities, deployed tens of thousands of troops across the U.S., created a framework for targeting domestic enemies, and cast his political rivals as subhuman in asserting his right to wage secret war, and summarily execute those that he deems to be terrorists without any proof or due process.
Starting point is 01:32:30 Trump used that bizarre speech to take aim at cities that he claimed are run by radical left Democrats, including Chicago, L.A., New York, and San Francisco. We're going to straighten them out one by one. This is going to be a major part for some of the people in this room. That's a war, too. A war from within. We should use some of these dangerous cities as training grounds for our military. And again, this is everything I fought against at Info Warriors.
Starting point is 01:32:59 I just, you know, I just can't say it enough. You know, police state documentaries to warn people against it, report after report about asymmetric warfare and the prepositioning of military assets and cities, and changing the rules of engagement for police into a shoot-first curriculum. That's what the head of the police academy in, we'll see, where was it? Was it in Arizona, I think it was? He had that, the police came after a homeless man who was camped out. Arizona or New Mexico.
Starting point is 01:33:36 Maybe New Mexico, yeah. Anyway, he was camped on the hill there. Maybe that was it. Maybe it's Albuquerque. And you can see the footage of the cops arguing with him that they wanted to arrest him. And then after a while, they just got tired of arguing with them. And they shot him and stuck the dogs on him. after they shot him. And the guy who had taught at their police academy, the state police
Starting point is 01:33:57 academy, uh, for decades said, that's it. I'm out of here. They want me to teach this shoot first curriculum and I'm not going to do it. It's against everything that we've ever done. And that's what we're seeing here. What Trump is doing is against everything this country has ever done. Um, he said, um, the increasing use of the armed forces within the U.S. represents an extraordinary violation of the posse comatata site. Let me just interrupt here. a second. Do you know where the Posse Cometatis Act came from and what the history of that was? It was created in 1878. From the end of the Civil War until the 1877, the South suffered under a federalized police force. It was called Reconstruction. You should look it up because nobody will put
Starting point is 01:34:45 it in any school textbook. They won't talk about what happened during Reconstruction. You want to talk about corruption, you want to talk about abuse of force, that was Reconstruction on steroids. And people had had so much of that, that even the people in Washington, the Republicans, pushed through the Possecomitatis Act to make sure that kind of abuse that we suffered under reconstruction never happened again. So banning the use of federal troops to execute domestic law enforcement has long been seen as fundamental to America's democratic tradition. However, the president's deployments continue to nudge this country ever closer to becoming a genuine police state. They come amid a raft of other Trump administration authoritarian measures
Starting point is 01:35:37 designed to undermine the Constitution, weakened democracy. Those include attacks on birthright citizenship. Now, here's why I differ with them. I don't think birthright citizenship is what the 14th Amendment is about at all. That was about giving citizenship to people who had been newly freed as slaves and to say that they live here. But it did not change the fact that you could, you know, you could be born here. But if you're not subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, you are not a non-American citizen.
Starting point is 01:36:13 For example, if your parents were here legally as representatives of another country, you know, somebody's an ambassador from Spain, they have a child while they're here. That child is not an American citizen. So again, I think when we look at birthright citizenship, I disagree with him on that. But Trump has attacked free speech as well as the exercise of expansive unilateral powers like deporting people about due process and rolling back energy regulations and so forth, which I would agree with rolling back the energy regulations. The regulations are put on by bureaucracies without due process.
Starting point is 01:36:49 without the due process of having Congress passed laws. And I think that the energy regulation should be rolled back. And I think that the EPA should be rolled back. I think it ought to be gone. It's unconstitutional. The EPA and all these other organizations, it's not just the regulations. It's the entire institution needs to be gone. So he's not going far enough as far as I'm concerned.
Starting point is 01:37:09 But when you talk about deporting people, I'm all for deporting people who are here illegally. But let's make sure that we do it with due process. and let's make sure that we don't turn our government and give them permission and cheer them on when they act like thugs, like massed militarized thugs. And that's what ICE is right now. U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer ruled last month that Trump's deployment of federal troops in L.A., which began in June, was illegal, and harkened back to Britain's use of soldiers for law enforcement purposes in colonial America. He warned that Trump clearly intends to transform the National Guard into a presidential police force. Congress spoke clearly in 1878 when it passed in Posse Comitatis Act, prohibiting the use of the U.S. military to execute domestic law, said Breyer.
Starting point is 01:37:57 Nearly 140 years later, defendants Trump and Hegseth and the Department of Defense deployed the National Guard of Marines to L.A., ostensibly to quell a rebellion, ensure the federal immigration law was enforced. Yet there was no rebellion, nor was civilian law enforcement unable to respond to protests to enforce the law. The judge ruled that the Pentagon had systematically used armed soldiers to perform police functions in California in violation of posse comitatis. As he put it, Trump and Secretary Hegeseth have stated their intention to call National Guard troops in the federal service in other cities across the country, thus creating a national police force with the president as its chief.
Starting point is 01:38:42 This conservatives and Maga people is why there was a no-king protest across the country. country. It didn't have anything to do with Soros. I'm not saying it doesn't have anything to do it. He can fund it just like you've got people funding a Charlie Kirk's organization. Nevertheless, this is the reason you're fooling yourself if you're telling yourself it was Soros. In the face of that scathing opinion, the president has nonetheless ramped up as urban military occupations while threatening to launch yet more of them. Now we're in Memphis, now we're going to Chicago. Trump told a large crowd. of sailors in Norfolk, Virginia.
Starting point is 01:39:20 And so we send in the National Guard. We send in whatever's necessary. People don't care. Yeah, his people don't care what he does. They give him a pass. As October began, Trump had already deployed an unprecedented number of roughly 35,000 federal troops. I just want to say, you know, think about this.
Starting point is 01:39:39 That's why I opposed Steve Pachennick and Alex Jones at the very beginning on this sting stuff. He said, yeah, we've got 20,000 troops out there, and they're arresting. people right now because we put out blockchain watermark ballots and we're tracking them with quantum computers it was all one piece of BS after the other and I said you know if you got 20,000 troops out there people would know that there's no way that you could cover it up and so just think about what's happening with this when military troops police civilians we have an intolerable threat to individual liberty and the foundational values of this country so the director of the ACLU's national security project.
Starting point is 01:40:20 Trump, and again, I hate to say that I'm on the same side as the ACLU. Sometimes they do support civil liberties, but most often they don't. Trump may want to normalize armed forces in our cities, but no matter what uniform they wear, federal agents and military troops are bound by the Constitution and have to respect our rights to peaceful assembly, freedom of speech, and due process. state and local leaders must stay strong and take all lawful measures to protect residents against this cruel intimidation tactic, which is what it is. There is no national security threat in Portland, said the governor of Oregon.
Starting point is 01:41:01 Our communities are safe and calm. And again, we saw that with the No King's protest that was there. After the governor conveyed that to Trump in a phone call, the president seemed to briefly question whether he had been misled, about an Antifa siege, quote unquote, there, and the city being, as he said, war ravaged. And as the governor recounted, he said, I spoke to the, sorry, Trump said, I spoke to the governor, but I said, well, wait a minute, and I'm watching things on TV that are different from what's happening. My people tell me differently. Days later, despite countless reports that there
Starting point is 01:41:39 was neither a war nor a siege underway in Portland, Trump posted on social media that Kotech, of the governor was living in a dream world, and he returned to peddling lies about the city. He said, Portland is a never-ending disaster. He said, we're going in because as American patriots, we all uppercase, have no choice. Law and order must prevail in our cities and everywhere else. Such a cynical liar. The guy who trashes the Constitution, who disobeys every single law, and taunts people and to some try to stop me when I do this. And he says he has no choice because he's got to obey the law to go in and do it. He's disobeyed the Constitution, Posse Comitatis Act, and many others, just like he had
Starting point is 01:42:25 a pretend pandemic. And he said, I have no choice. Yeah, Trump's living in a dream world. Actually, it's a nightmare. And these are all emergencies that he just dreamed up. Judge Karen Emmergoot that he appointed put in the temporary restraining order, 60-day restraining order about Portland, Trump immediately took aim at her, despite the fact that she had been appointed by him to office, saying that she ought to be ashamed of herself.
Starting point is 01:42:54 Then he claimed without any basis that Portland was, quote, burning to the ground, unquote. Trump then made further hyperbolic claims about the city and threatened to invoke the Insurrection Act. Portland is on fire, he said. Portland's been on fire for years, he said, describing the situation as, quote, all insurrection. Yet, you know, Trump in 2020 did absolutely nothing when cities were burning. Earlier this month, Trump signed an executive order claiming to designate Antifa as a domestic terror organization. We have to take care of this little net that's on our shoulder called the Democrats, he said,
Starting point is 01:43:33 as he spoke during the Navy's 250th anniversary celebration. This guy is literally sounding like Adolf Hitler. his childish rhetoric, isn't he? The Trump administration has also admitted that he's waging a secret war against undisclosed enemies without the consent of Congress. Brian Funnucane, a former State Department lawyer, a specialist in counterterrorism issues as well as laws of war, pointed out that the White House's claim that Trump has the authority to use lethal force against anyone that he decides as a member of a domestic
Starting point is 01:44:08 terrorist organization. is extraordinarily dangerous and destabilizing. He said, because there's no articulated limiting principles. The president could simply use this prerogative to kill any people he labeled as terrorists. He could use it at home in the United States. And we already see him doing this in Venezuela. He doesn't need any proof. And when he does it, you'll have Maga idiots creating little jingles to cheer him on.
Starting point is 01:44:37 The Trump administration's military occupations of American cities, its deployment of tens of thousands of troops across the U.S., its emerging framework for designating and targeting domestic enemies, its dehumanization of political foes, and its assertion that the president has the right to wage secret war and summarily execute those he deems to be terrorists, have left this country on the precipice of authoritarian rule. With Trump attempting to fashion a presidential police force of armed soldiers for domestic employment, while claiming the right to kill anyone he deems to be a terrorist. The threat to the rule of law in the U.S. is not just
Starting point is 01:45:14 profound, but historically unprecedented. And again, to go back to what Madison said, he said the weapons of defense abroad will be brought home as tools of tyranny at home. And so when you look at the fact that they have lied about enemies and what people are doing abroad when they have created coups and overthrown governments, what makes you think that they won't do all of that stuff here. Trump is building a shadowy, violent federal police force, says ProPublica. And again, you know, we go back to this pastor who, again, as I said, you look at what this guy has done. He's focused with Black Lives Matter. He has desecrated his church and, and decimated it, actually, with his political activism. Nevertheless, he has a right to protest. After they shot me in my head
Starting point is 01:46:07 in my face and multiple times in my torso arms and legs, I was shielded by the bodies of others who were there, who rushed in to support me and took many more hits that were intended for me. Within two minutes, quite a number of ICE officers, maybe 15, maybe 20, rushed out of the gate and began to shove us down. And I was already disabled on the ground,
Starting point is 01:46:32 but attempted to get away. And they continued to shove us in a kettling maneuver towards a place where we would not be able to escape. And you can see in that video, ice officers shoving protesters who were standing and speaking and chanting and singing peacefully and praying peacefully, shoving us down and then dispensing a huge amount of chemical weapons onto us.
Starting point is 01:46:53 We could hear them laughing as they were shooting us from the roof, and it was deeply disturbing. We've gotten to witness a few things about these ice agents operating in Broadview, and really what it has shown us how disorganized they are and how poorly supervised and trained they are. We've also heard ICE agents talking to each other, one of whom said, man, I don't even remember why I'm here anymore. And the other said, I don't know either.
Starting point is 01:47:19 So there's a deep demoralization that we are seeing as we're bringing this peaceful and spiritual protest against their tactics and what they are doing to our city and our communities and our neighbors. Well, you know, you heard him talking about a kettling operation. a kettling operation, and that's something that they do frequently to demonstrators to arrest everybody. Rob Doe got a pretty good compensation when they kettled him and arrested him when he was operating as a reporter. And of course, Jacari Jackson was shot with rubber bullets when he was
Starting point is 01:47:49 doing reporting. I'm not in favor of police brutality, and it just amazes me to see Infowars and people on the right now cheering this kind of stuff. And it's never justified to initiate that kind of force. When immigration and custom enforcement officers stormed through Santa Ana California in June, panicked calls flooded into the city's emergency response system. Recordings of those calls obtained by ProPublica captured some of the terror that residents felt as they watched mask men ambush people and forced them into unmarked cars. In some cases, the men wore plain clothes and refused to identify themselves. There was no way to confirm whether they were immigration agents or impostors.
Starting point is 01:48:33 And six of the calls to Santa Ana Police residents described what they were seeing as kidnappings. He's bleeding, said one caller, about a person he saw yanked from a car, a car wash lot, and beaten. They dumped him into a white van. It doesn't say ice. One woman's voice shook as she asked, what kind of police go around without licensed police? Then from another, should we just run from them?
Starting point is 01:48:59 During a tense public meeting days later, the mayor and the city council asked their police chief whether there was anything they could do to rein in the federal agents, even if only to ban the use of masks. The answer was a resounding no. Plus, filing complaints with the Department of Homeland Security was likely to go nowhere because the office that once handled them has been dismantled. There was little chance of holding individual agents accountable for the alleged abuses because among other hurdles, there was no way to reliably learn their identities. That's why they're wearing a mask.
Starting point is 01:49:33 Since then, the mayor said that she has reluctantly accepted the reality. There are virtually no limits on what federal agents can do to achieve Trump's goal of mass deportations. And look, I share his goal of mass deportations, but the means matter. You can't just do it any way you want, just like you can't shoot. people on the street because you suspect them of being drug dealers. And you can't blow people out of the water legally. He can do it. He can kill people.
Starting point is 01:50:06 But, you know, hopefully there will be a reckoning in this life for that kind of stuff. There is for Robert Duterte, Rodrigo Duterte of the Philippines. The thing that always gets me is the right doesn't even bother to argue that, you know, sure, he doesn't have the power, but he should. They just skip right past like, well, what are you? liberal? Can we at least have the debate on, you know, okay, this isn't authorized, but we would like it to be. We think this is a valid form of protecting our borders. They don't care about that. They've devolved into this tribal thing. Oh, you're obviously the other tribe. I see that all the time. And when I criticize Trump of the vaccine and the lockdowns, I was with the other
Starting point is 01:50:48 tribe because we all knew it was a bad Democrat governors who are doing it. If it's something bad, it has to be a Democrat who's doing it. Had to be the Democrat governors or it had to be Soros giving them money. No, it was Trump. giving them money. These people want to say that none of this stuff is happening unless Soros is giving them money. They would argue with me incessantly when I told them that Trump was incentivizing with massive financial bribery, the mass murder of people in hospitals with ventilators and with Remdesivir and other things like that. One former DHS official senior who was involved in oversight said, what is happening on American streets today gives me goosebumps. Speaking
Starting point is 01:51:26 on condition of anonymity for fear of retaliation. There we go, right? What's that telling you? He said, accosting people outside their immigration court hearings where they're showing up and trying to do the right thing, then hauling them off to an immigration jail in the middle of the country where they can't access loved ones or speak to counsel, bans of masked men apprehending people in broad daylight in the streets and hauling them off, disappearing people to a third country, to a prison where there's no documented record of serious torture and
Starting point is 01:51:56 human rights abuse. He said, we're at an inflection point in history right now, and it's frightening. And, you know, this is why this guy, what was the name, Kilmar Garcia, whatever, that they picked up. The response, you know, when they did this kind of stuff to him, and people called him out on the fact they denied him due process, the Trump administration starts giving us nonsense about, look, he's got MS-13 when they photoshopped it on the picture. You know, he's got tattoos on his knuckles, which are not MS-13 tattoos. MS-13 tattoos. people when they tattoo themselves, they want you to know that they're MS-13. They typically use, like, gang symbols, and they're very explicit about it.
Starting point is 01:52:36 This was just a different tattoo, and the MS-13 that was written on top of it, that Trump claimed was really written on his hand. That was something people photoshopped in, very obvious to everybody that it was photoshopped. They could have, this is how stupid the Trump administration is. They could have, and they should have talked about the fact that he was arrested in Tennessee, and he was trafficking people. He was driving the car that belonged to somebody
Starting point is 01:53:01 who had been convicted of trafficking people, and he had something like eight or nine people in his car. All of them were illegal aliens with no identification. And the Tennessee Highway Patrol pulled him over, and the Biden-Iced people at the time said, let him go. And they didn't talk about that, even though you had the local Tennessee papers were talking about that.
Starting point is 01:53:21 The Trump administration is too stupid to pick up on that. They should have made it about that, but they should have also given him due process before they deported him out of the country. Instead, their whole thing was to say, yeah, but what about the fact that he's this or he's that and miss the relevant facts that were there? Because they don't really care. Former official paused and said, we're an inflection point in history right now, and it's frightening. The identities of DHS officers, listen to this.
Starting point is 01:53:50 I have a real problem with this, and I didn't know this. the identities of department homeland security officers their salaries their operations have long been withheld national security right for security reason this is as i said national security has been the thing that they wave in front of everybody's face whenever they want to do something that's secret and illegal and whenever they want to violate the law they just say that it's for national security and did you know that the identities of dhs cannot be known. They are exempted from disclosure, from FOIA requests. You can't find out the salaries that people are paid. You can't find out names or anything about what they did. You can't say, well, I'd like to have some information about this action that they did. All of Homeland Security stuff is national is, is declared as secret and secure, just like they were the CIA or something. So, of course, they're going to turn into the CIA when you give people exemptions like that. So the issue was that we were told, you know, just like FISA court, well, you know,
Starting point is 01:54:56 these guys can do anything they want to, and we need to have them looking at foreign spies. So we'll create this FISA court. And that will be the oversight. Well, they created inside Homeland Security since they were going to hide everything that Homeland Security did and who all the Homeland Security people were. They're going to hide all that from you, their secret agents of the government. Just think about this. This, this agent. agency that was created in response to the 9-11 false flag mass murder by our own government of its own citizens. And then they create homeland security.
Starting point is 01:55:31 And then everybody that's in it is all protected as if it's some kind of classified government secret. And so they tell people, well, don't worry, we're going to have a special office where you can ask that office and they will do the investigation as if that was going to really work. Well, Trump shut that down. One of the first things he did. What does that tell you?
Starting point is 01:55:54 Well, ProPublica thinks it tells us a lot. This administration has gutted that office. What's left of it was led at least for a while by a 29-year-old White House appointee who helped to craft Project 2025 the right-wing blueprint that broadly calls for the curtailment of civil rights enforcement. And so DHS is secret, and the organization that was supposed to be. to hold them accountable within it, has now been purged by the Trump administration. ICE, their secret police, is their tool.
Starting point is 01:56:30 They have that now, and there's nothing stopping them from using it against citizens. And so, Ross story, which again is on the left, says Trump is preparing a coup. The evidence is clear, if you know where to look. I believe that Trump is preparing a coup against the Constitution, citing the removal of senior military lawyers and the tightening a press access to the Pentagon as evidence of the plan. Is the U.S. military already in the early stages of a Trump-led coup against our Constitution? Well, you know, when you just shred it bits by bit by bit, that in and of itself is a coup against the Constitution. Inside the Pentagon, loyalty is being elevated above law, as Pete Hegseth quietly
Starting point is 01:57:16 removes senior military lawyers the very officials meant to uphold legality and restraint and replaces them with loyalists well again loyalty elevated above the law isn't that what trump did in 2020 isn't that what Biden did subsequent to that because of all the jab stuff right for the military for instance you're going to take the jab because we say that you're going to take the jab and i don't care if i've got the legal authority to do that or not. I want you, I want to know if you are loyal to the military and if you will inject an untested vaccine just on my orders.
Starting point is 01:57:57 If you're not loyal enough to do that, even though I have no legal authority to make you do that, I'm going to kick you out of the military. The purge also happened to senior military leadership. They think, perhaps. Again, it's this Admiral Holsey who steps down and we don't know the reason. He has not said why he's not. leaving. It could be a continuation of the troubling trend of purges of highly qualified officers who have been inclined to restrain Trump's illegal fascistic impulses.
Starting point is 01:58:28 The bureaucracy is, this is the deliberate dismantling of the safeguards that have been within the military. And so it's not just within Homeland Security where we had the office that was supposed to oversee things because everything is safe. secret to us in terms of Homeland Security. But it's also the JAG Corps. The JAG people, the judge advocate generals, are supposed to advise commanders on the rule of law, including whether presidential orders are legal. Without these independent military lawyers backing them up, commanders have no recourse other than to comply or to resign. And that's why many people are wondering what happened to this admiral. At the Washington Post, David,
Starting point is 01:59:16 but Ignatius asked why the military has not spoken out against Trump's attacks on these boats off the coast of Venezuela, and what some characterize as his unconstitutional deployment of troops against American civilians. He answered his own question by saying that Trump has gutted the judge advocate generals as well. They are the institutional safeguard against unlawful orders. They advise commanders on rules of engagement, on the Geneva Conventions, and on the limits of presidential authority. And at the very beginning of this, when he blew up that first boat,
Starting point is 01:59:54 you had several former heads of JAG under many different presidents, Republican and Democrat, who came forward and talked to the press and said what he is doing is clearly illegal. It's a violation of military policy in the U.S., it's a violation of the Constitution. It's a violation of international law.
Starting point is 02:00:14 When administration starts purging these types of people, we're not looking at routine personnel shuffle. We're seeing a careful dismantling of the guardrails that prevent America's military from being weaponized against the American people. And again, this clip that I played for you last week. I believe that each one of them walked out of that room yesterday doing a personal analysis of what does this mean for me.
Starting point is 02:00:39 And I know for a fact that there's talk inside the military ranks of what is the best way to discipline. obey an unlawful order. How do you do that? And especially now, given the recent Supreme Court ruling, which holds the president immune from criminal acts, but the people he's ordering to do these things are subject to those criminal violations. So how do you say no, especially if the staff judge advocate, the lawyer chain of command has been disrupted, that the military chain of command from civilian to military leaders has been co-opted. It was obvious to me in Secretary Hegss's speech that he also is all for doing whatever
Starting point is 02:01:25 the president orders him to do. And that breaks the boundaries of what two previous Secretary of Defense, both Mattis and Esper in the first term, when they were ordered to do illegal things, they spoke for the force and said, we don't do that. Yeah, well, the purge began with Hegsses, February 4th. firing of top lawyers for the Army, Navy, and Air Force, he claimed they simply weren't well-suited to provide recommendations on lawful orders. The message is clear. Loyalty trumps legal judgment, just like in Third World dictatorships. Once the old guard was removed, Hegeseth quietly
Starting point is 02:02:04 moved to remake the JAG Corps itself. His office is pushing an overhaul to retrain military lawyers in ways that give commanders more leeway and produce more permissive legal advice. His personal, not his military lawyer, who defended him against sexual abuse allegations, Tim Parletor, has been involved in this process, wielding influence over how rules of engagement are interpreted and how internal discipline is handled. The Secretary has transformed the Pentagon press controls as well. And under these new rules, similar to the way the Kremlin operates, reporters are required to sign pledges stating that they won't gather or use unauthorized material, even if it's unclassified, or they risk losing their Pentagon
Starting point is 02:02:51 credentials if they stray. The policy also limits reporter mobility within the Pentagon and curtails direct contact with military personnel unless escorted. So think about that. Even if they're not talking about getting something that's classified, they're saying if this is unclassified information, you don't report it unless you get an okay from me. And so they're putting restrictions on them. As they point out, it's very much like what the Kremlin had. Only one America news agreed to this. The Pentagon Press Association declined to sign it and warned that these rules constitute a disturbing situation intended to limit leaks and to suppress accountability. So put all of these moves together and a frightening pattern emerges. Purge independent legal advice.
Starting point is 02:03:37 who might say no, gag the press before the damage can be exposed, combined that with increasingly aggressive unilateral action by the military abroad, and you have the outlines of a strategy for bypassing democratic oversight, a Trump-forced coup, in other words. Wednesday, the U.S. Navy again, struck what Trump claims was a drug trafficking vessel off Venezuela, reportedly killing six people. And I think since that time, he has reported. He said it was a drug submarine that they sunk. When you remove internal legal dissent and public scrutiny, the threshold to use force becomes dangerously low.
Starting point is 02:04:19 The domestic implications are equally chilling. Trump has publicly said that he wants to use U.S. cities as training grounds for troops and openly declared that he would fire any general who fails to show total loyalty. A wannabe dictator can't deploy troops into American neighborhoods if he still has Jags, saying, that's not legal. Or if he has a press corps that is reporting on where they go. First, he has to make sure there are no internal breaks and no public witnesses, and that's how coups are built.
Starting point is 02:04:49 Defenders will argue that this is about efficiency, about correcting an overly cautious JAG culture, or about closing leaks. But that's clearly a lie. Real reform would emphasize transparent standards, not loyalty tests. If the JAG Corps must be reformed, it should be done by independent committees, not by one political operator who is calling the shots. Make no mistake.
Starting point is 02:05:14 This is not abstract. JAG officers are bulwark against unlawful war, against war crimes, and against the misuse of force at home. Silencing and replacing them is not the act of a healthy republic. It's the early work of an authoritarian takeover. Combined that with the gag orders and the purge of senior military leadership, might resist Trump's illegal moves and we're watching the architecture of a strong man autocracy being assembled piece by piece and folks that autocracy is going to be used by both the left and the right they both want that the people at the top and the useful idiots at the
Starting point is 02:05:58 bottom are cheering it on when their guy does it a military coup doesn't typically happen in one dramatic moment, even though it appears that way when it reaches a climax. It begins through personnel decisions, institutional erosion, secrecy, and incremental normalization of power. The moment the legal counsel corps stops buffering against rash orders, the moment the press is muzzled, the path darkens. And we're closer to that moment than many, including, though many across our media, realize or are willing to acknowledge. What's happening right now, might not look like a coup to the average American, but it is unmistakably the preparation for one. In the same way that Trump prepared us for universal basic income, the same way that he prepared
Starting point is 02:06:47 us to be locked down and to lose our jobs, our homes, our farms, our businesses, because we could not, would not be allowed to work. Yeah, it's amazing. We can use the cities as training grounds. When you went to that training thing that they were setting up that fort that was made to look like an American city, the big thing was that, look, they have street signs that say First and Maine. How is this training for attacking a Middle East country? Well, now they're actually training on First and Maine. And the people that were exposing that, At Info Wars, are now cheering it. Yeah, yeah, not me. well a stunning new video shows trump ice agents ramming an american citizen whom they've then
Starting point is 02:07:34 arrest and so this was aaron burnett on cnn n it was new video of the incident and again it's in the article if you want to start playing it people can say sorry at the very beginning i didn't put that in the deck uh ice agents in an unmarked vehicle slammed into a u.s citizens pickup truck uh and so um the ice agent in that car the pickup truck as an American citizen as she's narrating it. Leo Martinez is an immigration rights volunteer in California. Oh, well, that's it for the right. They, you know, say no more.
Starting point is 02:08:07 He's, he's against us, right? He wants these people to stay here, the illegal aliens to stay here. So we don't care what ICE does to him. That's what you're going to get from the right. Look, I don't, I don't want to leave the people who are brought, who are allowed to come in under Biden, under Trump, under Obama. I don't think that they should be allowed to stay here and to get welfare, but I don't want to see this kind of action. He was driving through the neighborhood monitoring ice activity,
Starting point is 02:08:37 which he'd been doing for months before that. The agents had been involved with ice raids, knew who he was. And, you know, when I look at this, I see, and I'll give you some of the responses from people on the right, oh, he had it coming. You know, he's out there trying to film the ice agents doing what they're doing. It's like, well, why wouldn't you want to know if, they are exceeding their legal authority with this stuff.
Starting point is 02:09:00 It's very much like what cop watch does, right? You've had an organization that encourages people to record the cops and what they're doing, to keep them in line and to make sure that they don't go over the line. And then the cops will frequently turn on them. In this case, everything was different. Agents rammed his truck, then took him into custody. The incident ignited outrage in protests because he's American citizen. And so Aaron Burnett had him on.
Starting point is 02:09:25 And she said, you have dash cam footage of all of the time leading up to that actual moment as well. Ice agents in the SUV, you then sort of seem to be driving in circles, and we can watch this. Can you explain to me why that's happening? He said, yeah, this is the first time in all the months that we've been doing this, that the agents turned on us, being legal observers, we keep our distance. We keep our safe distance to keep tabs on what they're at. But this is the first time they turned their aggression towards us and really started coming after us. So that's something new.
Starting point is 02:09:56 I was trying to stay away from them. It's why we were moving in circles because they kept following me and moving towards me. And once they hit me, I knew that it was, well, it was a new ball game and we're going to have to deal with this a little differently in the future. Because now they have no problem with, they're already pulling guns on us, they've already done a multitude of things, but one thing is coming after us in their vehicles and hitting them with a vehicle. So again, do we have a right?
Starting point is 02:10:24 to observe and to record what the police are doing in our society? You better believe we do. They record everything about us. We're not supposed to know anything about them. Everything about Homeland Security is classified. You can't know anything about it. They're like the CIA and the NSA. And that is ripe for abuse.
Starting point is 02:10:43 And so this is Andrew Colvette, who is with Charlie Kirk's group, T.P. USA. And he says, this guy, Martinez, is part of a large network of people in Venturi County, California, who surveil and harass federal agents. Oh, get over it. Get over it. Come on. They're there. And I've seen this with cop watch over and over again.
Starting point is 02:11:06 You show up and you're shooting them from a distance what they're doing on video. You're harassing us. And they pick a fight aggressively with people. This is what's really happening. I can't believe this when you got conservatives making excuses for this. Cops need to be watched, right? It's kind of going back to what? Madison said. He said, well, because we're not angels, we need to have government. But because the
Starting point is 02:11:29 government is going to be composed of men, we need to be very careful about that. And for the longest time, people have said, who watches the watchers? Well, these are people who watch the watchers, and when the watchers start attacking the people who are watching them, you know they're up to something. Stalkers, like Martinez, says this guy at TPUSA, are actively endangering ICE agents by sharing their location with others and impeding federal law enforcement, which is a crime. Arrest them. Yeah, well, I disagree with that strongly. Trump's ICE has started targeting activists, not just immigrants. This is from the Three Thought Project. It's actually originally from Truth Out. Ice demanded that Facebook, meta, hand over personal information
Starting point is 02:12:16 attached to Instagram accounts that track immigration raids. Yeah, we're not allowed to look at all at what our secret police are doing, are we? The police state bounty hunters, the rise of ICE's unconstitutional war on America. And this is from John Whitehead at the Rutherford Institute. You'll find it also on Free Thought Project. Masked gunmen, tasers, tear gas, pepper spray, unmarked vehicles, intimidation tactics, brutality, racial profiling, children traumatized. families terrorized, journalists targeted, citizens detained, disabled individuals, minors, the elderly,
Starting point is 02:12:58 pregnant women, military veterans, snatched off the street. Private property destroyed. This is not a war zone. This is America. This is what now passes for law and order, as TPUSA would say, policing by ICE agents and Trump's America. It is not making America safer or greater. What began as an agency task, with enforcing immigration laws is now metastasized into a domestic terror force. That's right. Problem and solutions. What it was all about. They're going to use this problem that they created of mass migration to argue for digital
Starting point is 02:13:37 IDs, to argue for secret police, to argue to throw out all the rules of restraint and the rule of law. From coast to coast, ice goon squads, incognito, thuggish, fueled by profit-driven, incentives and outlandish quotas, are empowered by the Trump administration to act as if they are untouchable. They're prowling neighborhoods, churches, courthouses, hospitals, bus stops, work sites anywhere suspected migrants might be present, snatching people first and asking questions later. Journalists are being shoved into the payment, forced into chokeholes, tear gassed, brutalized, in violation of the First Amendment. U.S. citizens, including toddlers,
Starting point is 02:14:18 are being snatched up and carted off in violation of the Fourth Amendment, which is what we saw right away at the beginning in Chicago. This is not public safety. It is domestic terrorism carried out by masked, militarized, lawless bounty hunters. In California, ICE agents stopped a U.S. citizen and a military veteran on his way to work. According to George Rite's, agents fired tear gas, broke his car window, and applied physical force, including kneeling on him. He spent three days in federal custody with no charges, no call to his family, no access
Starting point is 02:14:52 to a judge or to an attorney, no shower, and no explanation for ICE's actions before they just released him. Well, never mind. In Portland, a U.S. citizen outside his workplace was detained by masked, plainclothes agents refused to identify themselves. They threatened him with a dog. They handcuffed him. They hauled him away in an unmarked vehicle and kept him for hours without justification.
Starting point is 02:15:18 In Chicago, a local TV journalist was violently knocked to the ground by masked agents, handcuffed, arrested, hauled to a detention center, then released without charges. In L.A., ICE agents handcuffed and detained a 23-year-old, heavily pregnant woman for over eight hours with a chain around her belly, accusing the native-born American of being from Mexico. They bruised and in labor. She went straight to the hospital upon release. Two sisters were stopped outside of school surrounded by at least 10 ice agents who broke into their locked vehicle, dragged them out, and pinned them to the ground. Both women were later released without explanation.
Starting point is 02:16:02 Each of these incidents is presented as a routine immigration enforcement, yet collectively, they reveal a government agency that has abandoned the principles of restraint, accountability, and due process in favor of brute force. They're thugs. This has been going on, he says, for a while, but under Trump, things have gotten much worse. The rationalizations have become bolder, the violence has become more normalized, and the lies are more transparent. And the biggest lie of all is that the Department of Homeland Security claim that this unnecessary military invasion of Chicago, Operation Midway Blitz, that it rounded up the worst of the worst pedophiles, child abusers, kidnappers, gang members, and armed robbers. How many times have you seen that? note, that lie from Trump has been repeated over and over again. Well, here's the truth about it from John Whitehead.
Starting point is 02:16:54 He said the data shows that out of a thousand people that they rounded up, only 10 had criminal records, right? That is at 1%. So not even one, yeah, that's 1%. When Donald Trump campaigned, he said he was going after criminals, rapists, and drug dealers. Now they're assaulting women, deporting children, mothers and fathers, not even criminals. And if they're criminals, they need to prove it.
Starting point is 02:17:23 We haven't seen that evidence yet, said one Chicago resident. Well, again, you know, people who are here illegally are committing a crime. But again, I don't think that, I think there needs to be restraint. I think there needs to be proportionality and there absolutely has to be due process in all of this. Nationally, more than 70% of individuals rounded up by ICE have no criminal conviction. Many have lived in the U.S. for decades, raised families, paid taxes, contributed to the economy, and worked the jobs that Americans refuse to do. Well, yes and no. But still, the bottom line is that he wants to make everybody into a terrorist. And in Chicago, out of 1,000 people that they got 1% had a criminal record. And overall, only 30% of them have a criminal record. 70% do not. I mean, yeah, it's illegal to be in the country. So 10% of the them are the people that were caught and then released, even though they're illegals already, uh, illegal to be here, like, uh, what is this? Why is ICE conducting these things to arrest
Starting point is 02:18:30 people with, uh, criminal records who are pedophiles and other things according to, uh, this? Yeah. Yeah, I've been saying they just need a few ICE agents in the actual jails. When they arrest someone, they then see if they're a citizen or not. And if they aren't a citizen, they don't just let them go, they hand them over to ice. That would be the logical way to do it. That's a good point. When you say, you know, when you say 30% of these people have a criminal record, that means that the system let them loose with a criminal record,
Starting point is 02:19:00 even though they're here illegally. That's a good point, Lance. And that needs to be stressed. It shows, again, that there is a lot that needs to be done to the system that is corrupt. Rather than going through and raiding apartment buildings and dragging people out the middle of the night and putting kids, and zip ties and guns and old ladies' faces. Why don't you, when somebody commits a crime, make them do the time?
Starting point is 02:19:25 But as John Whitehead said, clearly, this is not about crime. It's not about safety. And it's not about jobs. As a matter of fact, what about those small farms that Trump's tariffs are killing? No, it's not about that at all. So what is really driving this campaign of terror? What we're witnessing is the weaponization of fear. This is a spectacle of domination.
Starting point is 02:19:46 It is part deterrent, part distraction, and all political theater, just like that meme that he put out. The Trump administration has just announced its fifth military strike on Venezuelan vessel that it claims without evidence was engaged in illegal activity. The propaganda might scream about foreign threats, but these spectacles serve a different purpose. To divert public outrage away from falling poll numbers, a faltering economy, and a growing unrest. over the regime's corruption and incompetence. At home, ice raids perform the same functions as those boat strikes do abroad. They keep the public frightened and they keep the camera fixed on the wrong enemy. Meanwhile, the scandals that should command national attention,
Starting point is 02:20:32 the upsteen files that implicate powerful elites, the graft, the insider enrichment, all of those sink beneath the noise. This is not about border control or law enforcement. It's about control. period. When a political regime begins to equate its own survival with a nation's survival, every citizen becomes a potential suspect in every act of dissent a potential crime. ICE's strategy is predatory and deliberate. When ICE agents hunt people the way one might hunt animals in the wild, they cease to be officers of the law, and they become moving packs of
Starting point is 02:21:08 lawless predators. Lawless paid predators, that is. Yeah, that's why I refer to them as the feral government. The government has gone wild. It has gone feral. As a matter of fact, in addition to recruiting ICE agents with $50,000 signing bonuses and $60,000 in student loan forgiveness, DHS is also promising to lavishly reward police agencies that allow their officers to operate as extensions of ICE with salary reimbursements, overtime pay, and monthly bonuses. Does this look familiar? Does this look like the same thing that Trump did when he paid the hospitals to kill people with ventilators and REM Desivir, the rest of this stuff?
Starting point is 02:21:52 If you point at somebody and say they've got COVID to fulfill my narrative, then I'll give you a 20% bonus on everything you do to these people in the hospital. He's doing the same thing with this. You help us to push this narrative that I've got out there, the city's on fire. Maybe you set the fires, right? And I'll give you big bonuses. I'll give you a $50,000 signing. bonus if you come on board. 60,000 in student loan forgiveness. Then there's the Trump
Starting point is 02:22:20 administration's directive to ICE to carry out a minimum of 3,000 arrests a day. No wonder that citizens, lawful residents, and immigrants with no criminal history getting swept up. There simply aren't enough violent criminals to fill these quotas. And so, you know, when we look at this, that $50,000 signing bonus is kind of interesting, isn't it? Because there's been a lot of back and fourth with people he had the back and forth with Stephanophilus and J.D. Vance. Stephanophilus asking J.D. Vance a lot over and over again. Did he take a bag of $50,000 in cash? Did he take it or not? Did he turn that in? Did he pay taxes on it? Yes or no? And J.D. Van, he does business with things. It's like, yeah, how many people out there, how many of you out there
Starting point is 02:23:08 accept grocery bags of cash for your business payments out there. Come on, something is up with that. If you go back and you look at Spiro Agnew, I think he only got like $10,000 or something and cash delivered in a suitcase when he was vice president. Actually, it was just before. It was just before he became vice president. He was in the election runoff.
Starting point is 02:23:30 And that's when this happened with Tom Homan. It was in the run up to becoming, you know, being put into his position. that he was given that $50,000 in cash. And the FBI said it was a bribe, and they were going after him, and then the Trump administration shut it down. So therefore, since the Trump administration's FBI,
Starting point is 02:23:49 which we all know is beyond reproach, right? Cash Patel always tells us a truth. He always does everything legally, right? And so if they shut down this investigation of somebody who was very key in the Trump administration, then, of course, the guy is innocent. We have to believe, except I don't believe that.
Starting point is 02:24:07 And so you have this back and forth. They constantly evade it. They won't say that why he took it, who he took it from. Did he declare it? Did he pay taxes on it? What is going on with all this? And then we had another aspect of this. This is Bill O'Reilly was interviewing Tom Homan and asked Tom Homan himself.
Starting point is 02:24:29 And he was just as evasive as J.D. Vance. Listen to what he had to say. I know George Stephanopoulos is one of your best friends. he convicted you on television of a $50,000 bribe Stephanavolus did this on ABC the vice president
Starting point is 02:24:47 J.D. Vance defended you and I thought he did so pretty well because due process is important do you want to clarify anything about that situation? I didn't take $50,000 from anybody okay how did that get into the mainstream
Starting point is 02:25:04 do you think? I have no idea. Look, there's been hit pieces on me since I came back to this administration. There's got to be 30, 40 hit pieces on me about how I'm involved with the contract and our government contracts. When in fact, day one I came back, I recused myself from any discussions on any contract or any monetary decisions like that because I used to have a company that did consulting. So I cleared myself day one. What people don't talk about is I took a significant, huge pay cut to come back and serve my nation. And I'm not enriching myself doing this job.
Starting point is 02:25:38 Does this make you angry that they're coming as to this way? I don't care what people think about me and never have. No, because I know who I am. I work for the greatest present history of this nation, in my opinion, and we're doing the right thing every day. Okay. Well, there you go. Okay, he says he didn't take it.
Starting point is 02:25:56 Well, that's kind of interesting. I don't know. I guess if the FBI would say that he doesn't take it, there's nothing that we can do about that anymore. I frankly I would go with the initial stuff that's out there to me it seems like there was some smoke at that fire going back to this is a whitehead's article here he goes back to what martin luther king said in his letter from a birmingham jail of how to distinguish between just and unjust laws he said i would be the first to advocate obeying just laws one has not only a legal but a moral responsibility to obey just laws. Conversely, one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws. And I would agree with St. Augustine that an unjust law is no law at all. Now, what is the difference between the two? How does one determine whether a law is just or
Starting point is 02:26:54 unjust? A just law is a man-made code that squares with the moral law or the law of God. An unjust law is a code that is out of harmony with a moral law. And to put in terms of St. Thomas Aquinas, an unjust law is a human law that is not rooted in eternal law or natural law. Any law that uplips human personality is just. Any law that degrades human personality is unjust. We all understand that. I mean, we all looked with contempt at the Nuremberg excuse saying I was just following orders.
Starting point is 02:27:27 It's like, well, you should have never followed orders to do that. And so there is a higher law. There's a moral law that even people who don't believe in God understand. That is the natural law. And we all understand that things like murder are wrong. We don't understand all of us that going five miles over the speed limit is wrong. That's an example of man-made regulations versus eternal unjust laws. And so Whitehead says legality and morality are not always the same.
Starting point is 02:27:59 the notion a nation that abandons moral law will soon find itself without any law at all and that's the key thing you know we've had this back and forth about Romans 13 with Christians you know you have a lot of very successful people who have a lot of access and connections to the government telling you that you've got to do whatever the government says during the pandemic stuff we had Todd Friel saying that if the government, and this is right immediately before they were going to start mandating the vaccine for as a condition of jobs. And he says, if the government tells you to wear a pinwheel on your head, you wear a pinwheel on your head.
Starting point is 02:28:43 So I call him pinwheel-friel, because you are not obligated to do that. That is a horrible perversion of Romans 13. When the government is set against God, you know, you go back and look at it. Why do the nations rage? against the Lord and his anointed, his Christ, right? And they constantly, the nations, the governments of this world have set themselves against God. And when they do that, you are not bound to obey them. As a matter of fact, you are bound to resist them.
Starting point is 02:29:18 A government that claims pregnant women, that chains pregnant women, that assaults journalists, that detains citizens without cause, has lost its moral authority. authority to govern. A law, a government that abandons moral law will soon find itself without any law at all. That's right. We have a king already, and it is the law. Trump doesn't want king constitution. That's the real issue here.
Starting point is 02:29:47 ICE does not protect America. It terrorizes America. And until it is reigned in, dismantled or reformed to operate within the constitutional boundaries, it will remain a standing army. on domestic soil, unaccountable, unconstitutional, un-American. Tyranny always cloaks itself in the language of welfare and safety. Constitutional abuse transcends party lines. We've seen this from both left and right, Democrat, and Republican.
Starting point is 02:30:17 The Constitution is not a suggestion. It is the rule of law. And ICE, and by extension, DHS and the entire Trump regime cannot operate within those limits. if they can't, then it must hide behind masks and behind military might to exercise its power. Then it has to cease to be lawful. It has become exactly what the framers of the Constitution feared, a government that wages war on its own people. And so, you know, I thought an interesting side story of this was the fact that in California, there was this fight between Newsome and Vance. They wanted to, on the No Kings Day, it also turned out to be the two.
Starting point is 02:30:58 250th anniversary of the Marine Corps. And so they decided that they were going to shoot artillery over the California freeway that day. And I thought, okay, well, is that just a coincidence? Or is this something that's being done for intimidation? So is it, was it intimidation or was it celebration of the Marine anniversary? Well, you know, maybe it was both. Because we've seen over and over again, haven't we, when you have a lot of, you know,
Starting point is 02:31:27 you have a back and forth in a couple of countries. We have seen our own government run up massive military training exercises. Of course, other governments have done it as well. That is done to intimidate as a show of force and say, well, it's just a training exercise. And we do this all the time. And that's right. They do. But many times they use those training exercises for intimidation.
Starting point is 02:31:52 I think it was both of those things. I think it was a celebration of training exercise. and I think it was also intimidation. And so they said, yeah, we fire artillery shells over the freeway all the time. And we don't have a problem with that. So I don't know. I just, I look at it a little bit differently, I think. Comments we've got.
Starting point is 02:32:14 Yeah, we've got quite a bit, Molly Brown Dog. Our only hope is returning to the Constitution and forcing government to fit into it. Sure, that'll happen. Yeah, that won't. M. Sellers, my check is on the way, David. Well, thank you. Thank you. Appreciate that.
Starting point is 02:32:27 Thank you. Nibaru, 2029. Becoming a police date, long past that point. Yes. Says Soros doesn't need to do anything beyond a call to puppet Trump. Swamp lover, no nameplates, no facial recognize. Servants can hide ID, but we can't claim the Fourth Amendment. Skunk Hall of Rose Gardens.
Starting point is 02:32:46 Cops should not look like that. That's right. GDP 330. Governments create the problem, release their propaganda to instill fear and anger, then implement their ready to go. solution, quote unquote, that erodes our freedoms and gives them more power and money. And Max, I used
Starting point is 02:33:02 to feel this way. I have to support our people because they are all attacking them and it's not fair, but there is no our people. It's all a left right stage play. That's right. Three little birds. Compartmentalized corruption running rampant. Steve Evs, a government of the people, for the people, by the people, would hide nothing
Starting point is 02:33:18 but everything is hidden. Yeah. And Max. I think he's setting precedence and getting things organized for his next medical tyranny, is shutting the government down, is getting it ready to replace it. Yeah, and of course, nothing has been done with the RFK Jr. Do you stop these MRA&A shots? I mean, everybody knows how harmful.
Starting point is 02:33:40 We have had so many things that have been banned by government that were infinitely less harmful than this MRA stuff, and we all know it. That is the, that is such a flag, isn't it? Yeah, I mean, while we're still under the, emergency powers act for the medical emergency of this pandemic that we're living under right now. Good thing we got RFK working on that. Yeah, that's right. Real Jason Barker says before I loved the military, there was only a single approved religious
Starting point is 02:34:13 exemption and it was for a high-ranking chaplain. Why did his soldiers not get approved? He was selfish. Francine, U.S. military is not obligated to obey the president but the Constitution. and Max, note how he runs the Zionist agenda at Warp Speed, but when it comes to the pro-America agenda, made nothing but excuses, throws a bone occasionally to pretend. That's right.
Starting point is 02:34:34 Yeah, and Javier Malai, I'm sure Malay doesn't have blackmail material of him on Epstein's Island, but he was able to get millions of dollars just for a letter that he wrote to the, or billions rather, a letter that he wrote to the Nobel Peace Prize Committee. yeah yeah 20 billion dollars of uh government support and then they're going to fundraise for him another 20 billion dollars and not a penny not a penny for the farmers that he's hurt with a terrorist and he knew that was going to happen because it happened when he did it in his first regime it's amazing swamp lover says they can just ram people's cars well power goes out of the barrel of a gun so they can they've got the power they can basically do whatever they
Starting point is 02:35:22 want the law of the land is always effectively whatever people will tolerate right overture isn't a dash cam a violation of a cop's constitutional rights i'll tell you but it is a it is a cop repelant i've had a couple of situations who i've been pulled over and they said well you ran the red light or something i said i got a dash cam right here let's take it to court you know they said oh yeah never mind you know they go away so revolting villager ice is a dress rehearsal for the ATF i think This is a training exercise and troop buildup for a more serious police action. It can be used by any of these agencies. Years ago, I remember there was a Washington Post article, and they questioned why the Department of Education was getting SWAT team equipment, right?
Starting point is 02:36:08 Getting body armor and door battering rams and all the rest of stuff. And then about a year or so, after that, you had a wee hour of the morning raid on a home, because the mother was overdue on her car loan, and that was conducted by the Department of Education. They dragged the husband and the kids out on the front lawn face down, you know, like something out of Brazil again. And the mother who owed the student loan had left the family. And they couldn't be bothered to do that.
Starting point is 02:36:39 But that's, you know, they'll do it for any of these agencies are capable. They're armed and capable of doing this. That's what's so dangerous about this, folks. This is not simply about legal or illegal aliens or whatever. This is about accruing that power, setting that precedent so that these different bureaucracies can do whatever they wish. Revolting Villager read that one. Audi MRR, government domestic terrorism has always has been going on for generations. Just ask anyone who's been victimized by the ATF and FBI.
Starting point is 02:37:12 Revolting Villager got to scroll up. The government invited these people here for this pretext of training. and recruiting a national police force that will come point that at some point come for your guns yeah molly brown dog accepting a grocery bag full of cash has to be tax evasion why don't the feds get him for that like the al capone he is at heart real jason barker 9-11 opened the floodgates of corruption and money laundering i didn't see it till i was in the mix with contractors in afghanistan yes yes absolutely right but let me go back to that molly brown dog you know they said that, and again, O'Reilly says, well, Stephanophilus convicted you in a court of public opinion
Starting point is 02:37:53 on live TV. No, he didn't. I played that clip back and forth for you with J.D. Vance. He's just asking him, he said, the FBI says that they have a tape of this. Can you explain what was going on? Did he accept the money? Did he pay taxes on the money? He was asking him questions, which J.D. Vance refused to answer. Well, if he didn't take the money, why couldn't he say that? And I have a real question about this. So, you know, we hear now from Tom Homan that he didn't take any money. But evidently, there's a recording out there of him taking the money. So that still remains an open question in my mind.
Starting point is 02:38:30 We have real Jason Barker again. It says most soldiers that join the service do it for honorable reasons. It pains me to see what they have to deal with now. It was not always like this. That's right. That's right. Don't frag me, bro. It takes more courage to not serve the military when they provide
Starting point is 02:38:43 three hots and a cot. DG8. Thank you, DG8. Appreciate it. David, not only RFK Jr., not doing anything about MRNA, remember Trump had Ellison at the White House, day two, promising $500 billion to AI-generated MRNA vaccines. That's right. He loves the MRNA stuff.
Starting point is 02:39:01 And I believe that, well, you know, RFK Jr. had an issue with that woman that they put at the CDC, but she was all about combining AI and MRI. RNA, which is the same agenda that Trump had on day two with Stargate. And so I believe that they had put that one guy up the day that was supposedly, you know, going to review the vaccines and the schedules for the vaccines. They got rid of him as he was on his way to the hearing. I believe that he was just a, he was just a red hearing to get the, uh, Maga people to cheer this and say, look, we're winning.
Starting point is 02:39:38 And then they moved him out of the way and put her in place. Then there was a, I think, a personal conflict between her and RFK Jr. So she's gone. I don't think RFK Jr. It got rid of her because of her connection with Barta and with ARPA H and all these other dark agencies that are out there trying to create bio-weapons to be used against us. It really looks bad. What's there? We're going to take a quick break.
Starting point is 02:40:05 Before we take a break, you mentioned the check in the mail. if anyone else wants to send a check, here's the P.O. box address. Thank you very much for that. We obviously could not keep the show running without your support. Yeah, and the P.O. Box 994, Kodak, Tennessee, 377, 64. We really cannot thank you all enough. And then I just had one other comment about the quota thing. I hadn't heard that quota of 3,000 arrests a day.
Starting point is 02:40:36 That's shocking. Like, wasn't there a big thing about ticket quotas being a problem in certain states where, you know, if you have a quota of tickets at the end of the month, the cops that aren't at their quota, they're going to start going after whoever, and that creates a big problem. And yet they've got a quota for arrests, a daily quota for arrests. Yeah, this combines the worst aspects of a speed trap city with what happened with COVID, isn't it? you financially incentivize these people to do it and tell them they got to go out and find people, just like they told the hospitals, go out and find people and say they have COVID and kill them with a ventilator. You know, it's insane what is happening here. I'm going to take a quick break because we're nearly out of time and there's more that I want to talk about in terms of the George
Starting point is 02:41:22 Santos pardon. But we're going to take a quick break and we'll be right back. Stay with us. I'm not I'm gonnae'n't I'm gonnae'n't I'm gonna'n't I'm gonna'n't We're going to be able to be. You're listening to the David Knight Show.
Starting point is 02:42:18 Whether you're feeling like the blues or blue grass, APS Radio has you covered. Check out a wide variety of channels on our app at APSRadio.com. Well, one of the things that happened over the weekend, I thought was really curious as well, was the part, actually commutation was corrected on that by somebody who was there. Again, you know, it was a commutation and not a pardon. And I had some guy, I tweet about it right away, and I said, I think he's preparing people for when he pardons Gleine Maxwell or commutes or sentence or whatever it is that he does.
Starting point is 02:42:58 And some guy says, well, he didn't pardon him. He got a commutation, big difference. I said, well, I'm not so sure that it is such a big difference. You know, he's going to wear that conviction, yes. But I said, yeah, a pardon is what he did. to Jared Kushner's dad. And I said, I'll leave it up to you to go back and see his crimes that are out there. But again, I also misspelled, I did it hastily, and I looked at it and thought, well,
Starting point is 02:43:23 I'm not going to go back and change it from pardon the commutation. I also misspelled George's name. I'm surprised the guy didn't correct me on that, you know, a little grammar Nazi. But anyway, he served less than three months on his fraud conviction. And so the question is, what is this about? Well, Trump said he was suffering in horrible conditions, that he was in solitary confinement and so forth. Did Trump care about that when he passed on the pardons for Ross Ulbrick or many other people who were out there? I mean, there was one person after the other that people were begging him to pardon in 2020 when he gave the pardon to Jared Kushner's criminal father.
Starting point is 02:44:06 Did he care when he left the J-Sixers out there to hang? No, he didn't care about any of the. that. So I don't buy the humanitarian angle at all. I think he's up to something. I mean, it might be that he's preparing people for this Galane Maxwell thing and saying, hey, I just hate to see people suffer in prison. You know, that's just who I am. It might also be that he's trying to distract people's attention on the no king's day and saying, yeah, I'm a king and I can pardon people, so forth. I said, yeah, I said, you know, this person said he wasn't pardoned. His sentence was commuted. I said, I'll leave it up to you to read what Jared's dad did. That's a pardon
Starting point is 02:44:44 what he gave him. Porter's that have been covering Santos since 2022. They broke the news that he had lied extensively about his resume. Former representative George Santos in New York, the disgraced Republican Fabulous, whose lies made him an object to nationalist scorn. He basically owns that term fabulous. They have used it so many times over him. He's just a liar. He's a liar who makes up fables. In that regard, he and Trump are in the same place. I guess that's maybe Trump can identify with him, because they're both fabulous. He was released from federal prison after Trump commuted his seven-year sentence for fraud.
Starting point is 02:45:25 He only served three months. He said, George has been in solitary confinement for long stretches of time. By all accounts, he has been horribly mistreated. Therefore, I just signed a commutation releasing George Santos from prison immediately. Good luck, George, have a great life. Well, you know, again, you look at Marty Gattisfeld. Marty did nothing to harm anyone, and he was put under horrific conditions in prison and left rot there, just like Ross Ulbrick was and many others when Trump passed over them.
Starting point is 02:45:58 Santos served fewer than three months of his 87-month sentence, and he will no longer be required to pay more than $370,000 and court-ordered restitution to his vote. victims, according to a copy of the commutation posted online by the U.S. pardon attorney. The commutation does not wipe out his conviction, but as part of a blitz of grants of political clemency that Trump has doled out to his political allies or other figures, and I think it is preparing the way for a Maxwell pardon. When he first won his seat in 2022, Santos was heralded as a sign of a shift in Republican politics. Young, Brazilian, American, openly gay, Santos seemed to signal an expansion of the
Starting point is 02:46:45 GOP's tent. Yeah, that's right. You know, that's what they're all about. So Charlie Kirk was all about opening up the tent for gay people in order to fight the cultural war, right? I'm got to ask which side is he on. And then you got Scott Pressler, the long-haired homosexual who's going around. He's now kind of, he's this young guy like Charlie Kirk. And so because he's young and because he's homosexual and he's a great outreach for the Republican Party, that's what they have become. His victory in a Democrat-leaning district in Long Island was celebrated for helping Republicans narrowly win control of the House. He claimed that he was descended from Holocaust refugees. Remember, he came back and said, well, I didn't say I was Jewish.
Starting point is 02:47:26 I said, I'm Jew-ish. His mother, he said, had been the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. He claimed to be a college volleyball star, and he boasted of having an extended. extensive Wall Street experience that allowed him to report loaning his campaign hundreds of thousands of dollars. And none of that was true. In other words, he's just like Trump. I can see that Trump can identify with this guy because everything that he says is a lie. And it's not only just a lie, but it's a fabulous lie. Santos's claims were exposed to be faults from misleading. And when he was indicted in 2023, prosecutors accused him in multiple criminal schemes,
Starting point is 02:48:04 ranging from fraudulently claiming unemployment benefits and lying on official forms to using his political campaign to enrich himself, swindling money from donors for personal expenses, using one donor's credit card to steal $11,000 for his personal use. After Congressional Ethics Investigation found Santos improperly spent campaign funds on Botox, designer fashion, cosmetics, and only fans purchases, more than 100 Republicans joined Democrats to expel him from Congress in December 2023. He became the first person in history
Starting point is 02:48:40 to be expelled from the House without being convicted of a federal crime or of supporting the Confederacy. Santos, who had for more than a year, denied all wrongdoing, pleaded guilty in his criminal case. His sentencing
Starting point is 02:48:55 and at his sentencing, the acting U.S. attorney at the time, described his conviction as a warning. To Mr. Santos and other dishonest individuals of that ilk who lie, steal identities, commit frauds to get elected to public office. He said, public officials who criminally abuse our electoral process will end up in federal prison or in the White House, depending on how well you do it. And so it's kind of interesting, I think, that Marjorie Teller Green had come to his rescue. I don't know why
Starting point is 02:49:28 she is coming in on his side at all. And yet the reality, which I didn't have time to get into, too, is that when you look at what's happened with the royal family, they have continued to distance themselves from Andrew, who is connected to Epstein. They understand what an albatross Epstein is. Trump still doesn't, or at least he's doing things to try to get people distracted away from it. That's it for today's show. Thank you for joining us. The Common Man.
Starting point is 02:50:08 They created common core to dumb down our children. They created common past to track and control us. Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing and the communist future. They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary. But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God. That is what we have in common. That is what they want to take away. Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation.
Starting point is 02:50:43 They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us. It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide.
