The David Knight Show - Mon Episode #2124: The Trump Soros Connection
Episode Date: October 28, 2025[00:05:59] – Argentina Wins, U.S. Ranchers LoseKnight ridicules Trump’s celebration of Argentina’s bailout as American ranchers collapse under debt. He calls importing cheap Argentine beef “a ...betrayal of the heartland” and proof that MAGA populism is just corporate socialism in disguise. [00:09:52] – Soros Runs the TreasuryKnight exposes Treasury Secretary Scott Besant as “Soros’s man inside the government,” tying Trump’s $20 billion Argentina bailout to Wall Street profiteering. He says Trump’s fake populism serves the same globalist financiers he pretends to oppose. [00:35:24] – Orwellian Economics & Endless EmergenciesKnight mocks Trump’s claim that tariffs will erase income taxes and pay off the debt. He calls it “Orwellian doublethink”—a fantasy designed to normalize permanent economic emergencies and justify centralized control. [00:58:45] – Trump’s Venezuela False Flag SetupKnight warns that Trump’s “anti-cartel” military buildup in the Caribbean is a replay of past false flags like the Gulf of Tonkin. He says the CIA is manufacturing a crisis to trigger war and expand executive power under a fake national emergency. [01:17:27] – Rand Paul vs. Trump’s Extrajudicial KillingsKnight praises Rand Paul for condemning Trump’s “war on drugs” as murder at sea. He says these killings without evidence or trial prove Trump’s foreign policy has crossed into open dictatorship. [02:00:51] – SNAP Shutdown & Thanksgiving FalloutKnight warns that 41 million Americans could lose food stamps as the shutdown drags on. He predicts unrest as Washington funds foreign wars but leaves Americans hungry, calling it “the perfect storm for civil collapse.” [02:12:30] – Air Traffic Chaos & Worker RevoltKnight reports on unpaid air traffic controllers and looming Thanksgiving flight chaos. He says the worker revolt could expose how both parties weaponize shutdowns for political theater while the system collapses. [02:49:40] – Mirror Life: Science’s Ultimate Weapon of Mass DestructionKnight exposes a U.S.-funded “mirror DNA” experiment that could create organisms invisible to the immune system. He warns it’s “Fauci 2.0 on steroids”—an extinction-level bioweapon disguised as scientific research.

IMPLIN
in a world of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act it's the david night show as the clock strikes
13 it's tuesday the 28th of october here of our lord 2025 well we're going to start today what we're
going to do first is Argentina because you know Argentina is first Argentina is far more important
than America.
So we're going to be in there with the election that happened.
And then we're going to take a look at what, is this going to be our next Vietnam,
our next Gulf of Tonkin, Venezuela?
Maybe we should call it Vinnie Nam or something.
We'll take a look at that and what our peace president is doing.
And then we've got some new examples of AI slop.
But this time, in the real world, with very real consequences.
and courts with the police, with false identification, and swatting students.
That's AI, swatting students.
We'll be right back. Stay with us.
Well, I guess the Maga people will be doing the happy dance along with Trump and his Soros secretary, Scott Bessant, about Argentina's midterm vote, a major comeback.
Javier Malai's party received 41% of the votes with 92% of the votes.
of the ballots counted. And that's all that matters, right? It doesn't matter what happens to
our ranchers, our farmers. The important thing is that Javier Malai, who's a part of the
club, won his election. That's what everything is geared toward. So they won the vote on
Sunday. A result, they'll give them a strong foothold in Congress for continuing to pursue the
so-called free market policies. Let me just say, you know, I was hopeful when he first came on the
scene interviewed a guy who knew him who was a hardcore libertarian economist wrote a book about
something street wise economics do you remember Travis I remember the interview he's a sharp guy
it's a good book and anyway I got to say that if you had export taxes on products that you're
selling to people and if you have to have a bailout from the U.S. government that's not
libertarian economics. Okay, let's just drop that label once and for all with Javier Malai.
Besides that, the guy is a corrupt SOB just like Trump.
Only thing missing is his connection to Jeffrey Epstein, which we haven't determined yet.
Probably not, because he came along after Epstein.
Malai said in a victory speech, they have the backing of 101 members of the lower house
and 20 senators. The results would push him comfortably past the one-third of the seats that he
needs in the lower house to protect his veto power, as well as a base to pursue legislative
priorities like tax, labor, and pension reforms as he seeks to overhaul the nation's
beleaguered economy. So he was not up for election. It was just basically the night he's
going to be able to get policies through. His win will also vindicate the extraordinary support
from the Soros Secretary Bessent, who did a $20 billion dollar
currency swap line agreement for the beleaguered peso down more than 30% so far this year.
Yeah, it's not a golden investment, is it?
The president and his party have faced three corruption scandals this year.
As I said, he's corrupt.
While Argentina's slow economy and frustration with high unemployment helped push
Malai's approval to the lowest level of his term ahead of the election, well,
Still, when he was doing this, he was, when the money was released to him, he was, you know, when they got the, he's doing the YMCA Trump thing, right?
There he is.
He's happy dancing because, you know, that's what it looks like when you get $40 billion.
You hand it to you by a Soros lieutenant.
That's right.
Yeah, you're not going to see the soybean farmers in the U.S.
Yeah, that's right.
They're not doing that.
They're asking, you know, why do we have this going to somebody else?
But the cattlemen have a beef with Argentina.
Way out west.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
Brian Dagenal, a third-generation Arizona rancher
and president of the Arizona Cattle Growers Association is working his herd.
This is fall works, but we're at one corral of many on the ranch.
The day's job, with some help from family.
and friends is branding, then vaccinating his calves.
We just trying to ease in there and neck one and then next gal healing.
Vaccinating.
Rewarding work.
M RNA.
The mansion's always been a family business has been for years.
But lately harder to make a living doing it.
So this has been quite a week in the cattle business.
Partly because 30,000 feet above Brian Daganal's ranch, President Trump said this.
The price is down.
The only price we have that's high is.
and we'll get that down.
And one of the things we're thinking about doing
is a beef from Argentina.
Those words were enough to she...
The only thing that's high as beef, right?
The only thing.
No.
...like Daganov felt the hit immediately.
Yeah, Javier Malae is celebrating.
He's just, he can't stop dancing
and running and cheering.
He's got tens of billions of dollars reason.
He's got tens of billions of dollars.
...are answers are Trump voters.
But, yeah, this is, uh, this is a, this is,
something that we have to call him on and say, no, we don't agree, right?
Beef prices have risen by almost a dollar a pound since February.
But for American ranchers, that's meant finally seeing some solid profit after years of thin margins.
We don't think the government should be manipulating markets.
What Dagenal does believe is with more profits, in time, the free market, not imports, will lower prices.
We need to be able to make a living ranching, and that will, that will build.
the market will correct itself and there'll be more cattle if there's a profit to be made.
Yeah, maybe we should let the market do its thing.
You've got a Republican president.
We've got a so-called libertarian president, but they don't seem to have any faith in the market.
It's all about crony capitalism.
Crony capitalism is not capitalism.
It's corruption, which Javier Moy and Trump know all about.
And I've got to say that the ranchers and the farmers,
need to come to terms of this.
They've got to figure out whether they are cowboys or cows.
Where are they going to be humans or herds?
And they need to get off of this maga herd mentality.
As he said, 90% of the ranchers love Trump.
Why don't you wake up before you lose everything?
Why don't you wake up before we lose our food supply as well?
So, I have your mali on X.
Thank Trump.
Thank you, President Trump.
for trusting the Argentine people.
You're a great friend of the Argentine Republic,
just not so much the people in Arizona or Arkansas.
Our nations should never have stopped being allies.
Our people want to live in freedom.
Count on me to fight for Western Civilization,
which has succeeded in lifting more than 9% of the world's population out of poverty.
Well, Western civilization is great.
Part of that is the idea of a free market and competition.
not about the government picking winners and losers and most egregiously picking foreign winners
and American losers which seems to be the Trump administration's specialty Israel and
Argentina first and then there's a quote in this article a meme showing a picture of
Javier Malai says the only thing socialism produces is poverty well again what what do foreign
bailouts produce.
We've got formed bailouts instead of free markets.
What does that produce?
What about central planning?
And central planning that plans for other countries to succeed at our expense.
This is, the election made a lot of money for the U.S., said Trump.
I bet it did.
I bet it made a lot of money for the Trump mafia family as well.
Probably for Soros Bessent, Soros Secretary.
Isn't that interesting that, you know, again, Soros has connected everything.
He's running Antifa.
He's running the Kings protest and anything.
Folks, he's running the treasury.
Soros is running the treasury.
Wake up.
Do you think that Besant and Trump, some of these people, made some money on the side?
I think they probably did.
Trump said, well, if he doesn't win, this is before the election, we're not going to waste our time.
Because his opponent's philosophy has no chance of making Argentina great again.
And you have no chance of making America great again with your policies, Trump.
But here's the other issue.
You know, how do we justify interfering in other countries' elections,
propping up one party over the other,
and we're supposed to be apoplectic when it's done to us?
Why is that okay when we do it to other countries?
as well.
Argentina's stocks are up 40%
as Goldman Sachs says
the trade has just started.
It's a great day for Wall Street.
It's a great day for the Soros
Secretary of the Treasury.
And it's a great day for Trump, Incorporated.
And not such a great day
for American farmers, ranchers, and
consumers. Not so great.
And taxpayers, I should say.
Good luck. Trump's bid for emergency
help from the Supreme Court
was pointed out on MSNBC, and of all people, Joe Scarborough.
It's kind of interesting he was right about this for a change.
Joe Scarborough's point was he said, when you look at Trump and his tariffs against Canada over the ad that was there,
he said, it's going to be kind of interesting as his lawyers go to the Supreme Court very soon.
And it may be happening this week.
I don't know what the timing is.
but it's imminent.
So much so that Trump said,
they're just running that ad
because they want to interfere
with the Supreme Court's decision
as if the Supreme Court is sitting there
watching the World Series.
I'm sure that all the judges are doing that, don't you think?
And saw that commercial.
But nevertheless, he said they just want to interfere
with the Supreme Court's decisions.
Well, Trump did that himself.
This is another one of these.
stricent effects, right?
We need to rename that effect, the Trump effect, instead of stricent.
So he's going to have his lawyers argue before the Supreme Court that his arbitrary, capricious,
dictatorial setting of tariff rates is due to an emergency.
And he needs to be able to have that power.
And that there's some kind of an emergency going on, that the trade deficit is an emergency.
And yet, he just demonstrated what is really behind these tariff rates.
It has nothing to do with economics.
It has nothing to do with emergencies.
It has everything to do with ego.
Yeah, that e.
It's not economics.
It's not emergency.
It's ego.
And so that was the point that they were making on MSNBC.
They said, the fact is that he's going to, he's doing this.
He says because it's a national emergency.
Yet it couldn't be clear.
that he's doing it because his feelings were hurt, because he put together this ad in the
province of Ontario. Yeah, in other words, what he just showed was that it is Machiavellian
politics at its worst, not economics. So good luck, even going before the Supreme Court and arguing
that these tariffs are based on emergencies. They said, everything is an emergency with Donald Trump.
And, you know, an emergency because an ad that quotes Ronald Reagan accurately and his views on tariffs, that's supposed to be an emergency?
Well, no, he kind of painted himself into a corner there.
And yet, I was surprised yesterday.
It took a little while, but the conservative press started to respond to the sad thing.
I guess they had to maybe let it cool off a little bit or maybe have some meetings about how are we going to spend this?
don't offend Trump and his MAGA core that is our base.
And so here's WorldNet Daily that I've lost all respect for, along with Breitbart InfoWars,
a lot of them.
This is an article that they did.
This is Trump having another temper tantrum saying that there should be a ban on fake ads
that show that his polling is at low levels.
Notice his approval rate is at 37%.
He said, that's a fake poll.
And you shouldn't be allowed to say that.
He despises free speech, especially the free press.
He wants bans on fake ads.
And here's WorldNet Daily supporting him and this and actually pulling in the tariff ad from Canada as a support saying, yeah, look, they did this fake ad in Canada.
I mean, how can you lose all of your integrity, all in one shot?
You know, W&D used to not be like this.
And Breitbart used to not be like this.
but they have become like this now.
What they're doing, folks, is they are selling the rope of censorship.
They'll be used to hang them.
And I don't like censorship and I don't like to see people shut down,
but I'm going to say, I told you so when it happens to Breitbart and when it happens to W&D.
So Doug Ford, who is the premier, is the premier of Ontario,
who put together that ad.
They asked him about what's going.
He said, the Republicans, I've spoken to some Republicans.
They know what Ronald Reagan was about.
He said, but they're terrified of Trump.
Maybe we need to say that the GOP is terrified.
They are scared of him.
And his tariffs, they are terrified.
Senators or governors told you that they, to Brian's point,
that they liked the ad.
I mean, we know the Democrats.
Democrats like the ad.
Yeah, absolutely.
They like them.
But any Republicans privately telling you?
No, I haven't talked to them, but I'll tell you what they have told me.
They totally disagree with the president.
All three levels.
I've talked to senators, Congresspeople, and governors.
They all told me they totally disagree, but they're too scared of President Trump.
When was the last time a Republican governor was scared of a Republican president?
They're scared of ramifications, which is really, really sad.
It is.
it is he ruled my temper tantrums and terrifying people uh so he's not even making them scared of good
things like if i was president i would have the governors quaking in their boots i would have congress
in tears in shambles the supreme court weeping the sound would be audible for miles
not so with trump no what would you be doing to have them so afraid of you that uh we'd be
we'd be bringing the Marines in to shut down every abortion clinic.
Any governor that tries to stop it would be getting drug out.
Like, oh, you want to legalize murder?
No, I don't think that makes you fit for office.
Rendition, Guantanamo.
So, again, he wants a ban on any commercials that talk about polls that he disagrees with.
As a matter of fact, he's got a lawsuit that is yet another lawfare,
a lawsuit against someone who, if you remember in the very end of the election in Iowa, there was
a pollster there, and she came out with a poll, and I remember covering it, I said, this poll is a real
outlier compared to what everybody else is doing. And she was grossly wrong. You know, she showed
Lala making a surge, and so it got a lot of attention because everybody pointed her and said,
you know, all the other polls are saying this, but you're saying that. And so she got a lot of
attention. And then it turned out that it was a gigantic win for Trump. He did much better there
than any president has since, you know, Reagan. And so she immediately quit as pollster. She had
blown her reputation. She wasn't going to be paid attention. That's honestly more honorable than
most people. That's right. You know what I guess? But that's the way it ought to work. That's the way
it ought to work. The free market ought to people, I'll look at this and say, you people, I remember that
poll that you did out of it. People can handle the truth, and people can handle who is accurate
and who isn't. This Nostradamus guy really needs to follow her example. I've been hearing him for
years. But she should have spoken in quatrains like Q. The thing is, if they make it so that
only the approved polls can go forward, you'll only see the outlier pull. You won't be able to have
a whole bunch of poles and see which one of these is the standout, which one of these is most
likely wrong, you'll only have the approved number, which will most likely be, whatever they
want it to be. That's right. Yeah, the answer, just like with guns, right? Just like the Second
Amendment, the answer to a bad guy with guns is good guys with guns. And the answer to a bad guy
with information is good information from a lot of other people. Its debate is the answer to all
of it, not shutting it down with censorship. But this is the desperate, despot Don and his ego at work
here, and they're cheering him at WND.
And just to remind you, this is the ad in question.
When someone says, let's impose tariffs on foreign imports, it looks like they're doing the patriotic
thing by protecting American products and jobs.
And sometimes for a short while it works, but only for a short time.
But over the long run, such trade barriers hurt every American worker.
and consumer. High tariffs inevitably lead to retaliation by foreign countries
and the triggering of fierce trade wars. Then the worst happens. Market shrink and
collapse, businesses and industry shut down, and millions of people lose their jobs. Throughout
the world, there's a growing realization that the weight of prosperity for all
nations is rejecting protectionist legislation and promoting fair and free competition
America's jobs and growth are at stake and again I played that yesterday and yesterday
I read from the transcript and of course what is being told by Trump and by W&D and
shamefully by the Reagan library itself they said well they edited this stuff and we're looking at
our legal options here. You don't have any legal options. This was a public radio address and a
transcript of what Ronald Reagan said as president. You don't own that. You don't have any legal
rights to it. And it was not deceptive. I didn't read all of what was there because it was
take you about five or six minutes to read it all. They're doing a one minute commercial. And when
you heard him talking about the consequences of what happens in long term with tariffs,
He had gone through a long discourse about what his opinion was, about what happened with the
Smoot-Hawley-Tare effect and its impact on the Great Depression.
He also went into another section where he talked about how the Democrats were opposing him
and the Democrats wanted to be protections, you know, like the Democrat Trump.
And so he said, no, we're going to oppose that as well.
And so he had these long discourses, which, yes, were edited out.
And yet, if you put them in, it bolsters the case that he was for free trade, which we all know he was.
Anybody who was around knows where Ronald Reagan was on this.
And that's the issue.
That's the issue more than whether or not he's right or Trump is right.
The issue is that Trump is a liar.
He's a thin-skinned liar.
And he's afraid to have a debate with anybody, including a dead president.
That's how bad he is.
And so that's the crux of the issue is not even free trade versus protectionism.
The crux of the issue is Trump's character, which he doesn't have.
And this clearly shows it.
And it's also his reaction in terms of, as I said before, take that to the Supreme Court and tell them it's not an emergency.
It's his ego that is involved here with these tariffs.
This guy has no clue about economics, but it's simply his ego that is there.
And so that's what we can clearly see.
Unfortunately, World Net Daily says just last week, we reported Trump pulled the plug on trade negotiations with Canada,
where the economy relies in significant ways on the U.S.
Or what he called a fake ad that appeared to be trying to influence U.S. Supreme Court's looming decisions on tariffs.
Yeah, it will, but not in the way that Trump wants it to influence them.
further, the Canadian ad may actually misrepresent President Ronald Reagan's
whose words it uses.
Now you're flat out lying, W&D.
Shame on you.
I mean, Joseph Farah, he's had a stroke and his wife has taken it over.
And it's just pathetic to see what has happened with this so-called news outlet here.
They have absolutely no integrity.
You can look up the transcript.
Even in the thing here, they embed the radio ad.
If you look at that radio ad and you take the five minutes, which most people won't, to look at it,
or if you were live during Reagan's presidency, you know that Trump is lying, that the World Net Daily people are lying,
and you know the Reagan Library people are lying.
Why?
Because the Reagan Library and World Net Daily are tariff-eyed of Donald Trump.
You know, the Reagan Library has been where they've had presidential debates when you had President's
a debate. Trump is afraid to debate and the Democrats lawfare against him allowed him to skip
all the debates in 2024. He was not harmed by that stuff. He's writing himself a check for
$230 million. And yet he ought just look at that as the cost of campaigns because it was the
Democrat lawfare that won the election for him. It was a Democrat lawfare that kept him from having
to debate any Republicans. And you know what we're not seeing any competition,
for are the J6 people that he abandoned who spent four years in jail and hell not a penny for
them but he writes himself a $230 million check that's your dear leader that you guys are
cheering not me I will never cheer this guy so uh they said the Ronald Reagan Foundation
just announced that Canada has fraudulently used an advertisement well that's
That's Trump actually talking about that.
Again, there was no fraud.
It was an accurate representation of what Reagan had to say.
As a matter of fact, and Doug Ford had this to say as well.
And we've seen, you know, the employment numbers that manufacturing jobs down in the U.S.
have dropped a month after month total 78,000 jobs for five consecutive months.
That's what tariffs do.
They hurt the American people.
And all you have to do is look on clips from Ronald Reagan over and over and over again.
I've seen more Ronald Reagan clips than you can shake a stick at.
He was a free trader.
I had a mentor named Brian Melrooney.
I talked too frequently.
I've had conversations with Caroline, his daughter, that is our president of the Treasury.
And I'll tell you one thing, President Reagan was anything but loving tariffs as,
Donald Trump said, he loved terror.
He hated tariffs, by the way.
And all you have to do is look at the clips.
When you see the Reagan Republicans standing up for non-tariffs against the MAGA group,
there's a split now in the Republican Party.
And when Democrats, you know, Reagan Democrats are standing up, there's a split.
So the best ad that ever ran.
I don't know if they're still running it or not.
made no sense at all to pull it after Trump had his temper tantrum and decided he's going to
punish Canada. They should double down and bought more spots because it's absolutely accurate.
And that's the key. I don't agree with Doug Ford on anything. I know this guy is a radical
leftist. And, you know, it's not about the economics of this. It's about the integrity or the
lack of integrity of Donald Trump and of the Reagan Library people and of the media that is out there
selling this lie, telling you that it was
deceptive. You can read it for yourself.
If you know anything about Reagan,
you know that it was true to what he
had to say. The Reagan Library
wants to make sure they don't burn
their bridges with Trump's party
because it's not the Republican Party anymore.
They want to make sure they can host
these debates in the future. That's their
key relevance. And so they're
going to be sycophants to him,
just like Mike Johnson.
Well, the court has cleared the path
for a Trump lawsuit
over what he said was brazen election interference by the media poll that I mentioned earlier,
the one out of Iowa, the Des Moines Register, the pollster was Ann Seltzer.
She claimed that Harris held a three-point edge over Trump in Iowa, 47 to 44, just before the election.
And so he says, because you said the wrong thing here, I want to sue you.
It was a stunning reversal from shortly before when Trump was confirmed to have a four-point lead.
And again, it was an outlier poll.
The question is whether she got it wrong or whether she was just a liar instead of an outlier.
In reality, Trump crushed Harris by more than 13 points in Iowa.
His widest margin in Iowa yet, the biggest Republican presidential win there since Reagan.
And he's not satisfied with that.
He's a sore winner.
You've seen people who are sore losers typically,
but Trump is such a pathological narcissist that he is a sore loser.
I tell you, it's going to be,
when you look up Donald Trump,
when you look up narcissists in the dictionary in the future,
you're going to see Donald Trump's picture there.
Suspicious shifts, sample sizes skewed toward urban areas,
questionable weighting that favored younger and minority respondents.
And yes, we knew all that.
We talked about that when it happened.
This isn't something we found out much later.
And we know that both sides do this.
You have Republican polling organizations
and you have Democrat polling organizations
and they lean into their candidate
and they make very subtle changes in it.
You know, kind of like, I don't know,
kind of like Pfizer does, right?
Pfizer manipulates their studies
to show that their product is,
the best and that it's safe and that it's effective. If Trump wants to get upset about fraud,
forget about this pollster and election that you won. Take a look at the fraud that you've been
a part of, that you've paid for, that you robbed the American taxpayers to make these
vaccines and then used it to kill them. That's what he should be looking at, but he's not. It's
going to simply be about his ego. He doesn't care a whit about your life, about your business and job
that he killed in 2020.
He doesn't care about any of that stuff.
He only cares about his ego and the fact that somebody criticized him during the election.
Hey, pal, Big Don, if you can't handle the criticism, if you can't handle the heat, get out of the kitchen.
I think it was Harry Truman that said that.
But if he can't handle the critics, if you can't handle the push polls, he needs to get out of politics.
And he is getting out of politics.
He's getting into dictatorship areas where he's getting into.
do. So she quit after that election, and the report said her polls have always tended to favor
whoever she personally supports, just like the pharmaceutical studies.
And we knew that going in, and people factored that in when she was the only one saying this.
Just let the market take care of it.
But Desperate Don can't do that. He has to do something like a desperate.
when his feelings are hurt.
So the WHO and the EU are launching an AI system to monitor social media and misinformation
in real time.
See, Donald Trump is exactly on board with people like Ursula Fond of Lying and the
EU and Starrmer and all the rest of these people.
They constantly want to monitor everything that you say and do and punish you for your
opinions.
And so does Trump.
This is why I say, what's so dangerous about him?
It's not just his ego.
I mean, we see it very clearly with his ego, but he's going to weigh in on all this stuff as well.
I mean, that's why the techno bros picked somebody like him.
All this so-called monitoring of so-called fake news.
What is fake news?
That's the same thing they disagree with.
What is hate speech?
It's any speech that they hate, any opinions that they don't want heard.
It's always, he's always on the same page.
with these depopulationist globalists who want to censor and control everything that we're doing.
And he's going to be pushing through the digital ID and the digital cash to do all of this stuff as well.
So a study of wine tariffs shows that consumers will pick up part of Trump's tab.
This is a study from Duke's Department of Economics found that consumers ultimately paid more than the tariff costs on European wines during Trump's earlier tariffs.
in 2019, and they were not removed until 2021.
Americans paid higher costs than the federal government collected in tariff revenue.
How about that?
It's even worse than a tax.
The good news is that consumer prices for imported wines rose less than the increase in
the tariff, but the bad news is that our estimate suggests that consumer cost increases
exceeded the tariff revenue received by the U.S. government.
So they didn't pass along all of the tariff necessarily to them, but they go through how this
actually worked, which I won't get into the weeds about that.
But the bottom line is that they, like anything else, once inflation starts, guess what?
You know, once it starts to get established and everybody's starting to raise prices,
well, you decide, well, I can raise mine just a little bit more.
And so they raised the price of the tariffs, actually, even the cost of wine went up even more than if they'd passed the tariffs on 100%.
What was interesting about it was they said there was a significant delay in terms of how long it took them to put these things out.
Of course, you know, the first instinct for businesses, since they have to compete, price, of course, is one of the things that they have to compete on.
And so their first instinct is to try to swallow the price increase and not put themselves at a competitive disadvantage.
But you can only do that for so long and you go out of business.
It's just like conservatives used to understand that you can't tax corporations.
Corporations will pass the taxes on eventually or they will go out of business.
And that's what's happening here.
So what they found was that there was a significant delay.
It's kind of like the way the vaccines work, right?
They don't kill you right away, or it'd be too obvious.
And so they started to see a lag in the cost of that, and then it went up even more than the tax.
And then when the tax ended, they saw a significant lag before the price came down as well.
And we've all kind of seen that type of thing.
So Trump at the White House have said that tariffs won't raise consumer prices.
It's a tax.
It's inflationary.
and they're lying yet again.
Trump has hit every U.S. trading partner with tariffs of at least 10%,
with some countries facing rates above 30%.
In addition to those import duties, Trump has tariffs on imported steel, copper, aluminum,
automobiles and auto parts, among others.
He says he wants to bring back manufacturing jobs lost to low-wage countries,
and yet he's taxing the things that we use to make stuff with,
that we don't have made in the United States.
so he says he wants to bring back manufacturing he wants to shift the income tax burden away from
Americans and he wants to pay down the US debt so think about that and we said this at the
very beginning as well this is Orwellian economics it's like Keynesian it's not Austrian it's
Orwellian because it involves double think you have to believe that your high tariffs are
going to pay down the debt and eliminate the income tax and yet at the same time it's going to
onshore manufacturing well if it onshore is manufacturing guess what you don't have any tariff
revenue anymore and so you can't have both of these you can't have your cake and eat it too
and of course you can have your maria internet ballroom i guess that's what they should call it
people were saying let them have balls yeah yeah that's what the republican needs the republican party itself
needs more balls they don't need a ballroom but they need more balls the the the the the uh the uh it's just
crazy to see this happening we live in a time where some democrat women have more balls than republican
men yeah what is a woman yeah uh researchers also found evidence of tariff engineering
meaning that that was small changes to the product or its label in order to lower import duties
They said a lot of wines that previously classified as less than 14% alcohol became classified as above 14% alcohol in order to avoid paying the tariffs, because this is on wine, not on hard liquor.
Researchers noticed a much longer lag time than they had expected for the higher prices to reach consumers.
They also found that the higher product prices lasted longer after the government removed the tariffs.
It takes almost a year until you see the significant change in retail price that,
the consumers. Remember, Trump announced these things and then didn't put them into effect
for several months later if he did, in fact, put them in fact. So it's almost like something this
large with this much momentum takes a very long time for things to take effect. Yeah. And in both
directions. Yeah. This is exactly what you would expect to see. The things go on and it gradually
over time, people notice it and has to be adjusted for it. That's right. That's right. Yeah. It,
It took about three months until the importer renegotiated prices with the exporter,
then also to raise prices to the U.S., and they didn't go down right away when the tariffs go away.
In fact, they stayed elevated for another year after the tariffs were removed.
So they were slower to come off than they were to come on.
So we're going to still have to wait and see what is happening with the inflation.
But again, as Massey, I played the clip yesterday,
Massey was talking about food prices, and he said,
I said back in 2020, you know, if you're going to call your herd because of what Trump did
with a lockdown, people could not get their product to market.
So I can't keep feeding these cattle.
I'm just going to kill them now.
And if you're not planting an apple tree that takes several years to grow to fruition,
then we're going to see these problems down the road.
And he said, this is exactly what I said five years ago.
and it's now these Trump's lockdown and the inflation and food prices and other things that have
happened to it. These are chickens that are still coming home to roost, and not all of them have come
home to roost yet. The lockdown was a massive tragedy. Most of the time, people talk about
the failure of lockdown. Oh, those kids, they didn't get to go to school and get abused. But that's
not the real issue. The real issue is what he did economically to us with the lockdown.
I think it's a good thing for kids not to go to school.
Yeah, that was the silver lining in all of this.
That's right.
Yeah, the kids didn't go to school, but the parents got to go to the classroom to see what was actually happening in it.
And that was a good thing.
Well, we've got a couple of comments here.
That's right.
Nights of the Storm.
That's Jason Barker, Angry Tiger, Karen Carpenter, and of course others as well.
Yes.
You can go check them out at nights of the storm.com.
That's where they have the schedule at lists this broadcast and all the other friendly broadcasts and the times they're on.
so you can find these shows that you want to watch.
They're worth checking out.
Angry Tigers' own show.
Tiger and Snake Report is worth checking out.
Guard Goldsmith's show, Liberty Conspiracy is worth checking out.
They're all listed on Nights of the Storm.com.
And several others.
Yes.
And quite a few others.
Yes.
Go check out Nights of the Storm.com.
And Nights of the Storm says, here's a novel idea.
We can stop all the fake ads if we all just have a digital slash internet ID.
That's where it's all headed.
Wouldn't that be handy?
Yeah.
And look at how Trump is.
is so exercised about this.
I mean, he went after CBS for the same thing.
You deceptively edited that Lala Harris interview.
And they didn't.
They put up the full interview before.
And so, you know, the whole thing that got him down that line was the fact that their trailer for it, their promotion for it, was different than what they actually aired.
Wait a minute.
You edited something?
Yeah, pal, that's the way things work.
Have somebody explain it to you.
somebody in your administration can explain to you that when you got a 10-minute clip
and you've got a one-minute spot, you're going to edit some stuff.
Now, that can be done honestly or can be done deceptively.
Just because something is edited doesn't mean that it's fake.
That's the fake assumption that Trump begins with in his lawsuits and the rest of
stuff.
That's the thing is editing can be used to completely and utterly butcher context.
It can be used to make people say things they never intended by.
stripping context by taking pieces and reordering them.
That's right.
However, they did not do that.
You can also completely retain context because it's a general rule when people are speaking.
They tend to reiterate.
They tend to retread the same ground multiple times.
And you can just cut out the middlemen.
You get the beginning, you get the end.
And as a general rule, it retains the same context.
And that's just how it works.
Editing is not inherently deceptive.
no marky mark in new jersey thank you very much says i watched a house of dynamite this morning and
it left the viewers hanging we never saw off the new kit chicago nor do we see potis decision it was
unsatisfying but i think the application is clearly there when i watched it you know he was um
had that back and forth the guy had the nuclear football and he gave him the targets and he starts
reading off numbers i think that was indicating that it was going to be a full scale escalation
And then the last scene was this massive traffic jam of all these bureaucrats coming out of Washington, going to Raven Rock.
And again, Raven Rock, I've talked about that book many times, Raven Rock, the plan to save themselves and to let the rest of us die.
And that book began with Big Hole, Travis.
And if you guys remember that.
I've told the story.
You tell the story because you were in the car with Karen.
Yeah.
So there's a place in North Carolina called Big Hole Road.
It's a sort of large bunker installation, originally owned by AT&T, or maybe it was originally owned by the government now and by ATT, one way or the other.
Two sides of the same coin.
It equates to the same thing.
Yeah, that's right.
But, you know, it was kind of a local urban legend, like, oh, you go down this little road, and all of a sudden there's guard towers and there's military guys.
And we're just like, oh, I don't know.
And they all said that it's been shut down a long time ago.
Yeah.
And the other thing that was interesting is in the town of Pittsburgh, they had all these mayors, including the one who was the current mayor there, they had all worked for AT&T at Big Hole.
Surprise, surprise.
Yeah, and this novel begins with Nixon as he's flying to California, and he's resigned, and he's passing the nuclear football off to someone else.
And so they talk about Big Hole and how that's a part of it at the very beginning of the book.
And I said, look at this.
So you guys go to big old.
Yeah, so we just go down the road and all of a sudden, you know, just over the speakers, turn around, turn around.
There's, you know, some guy up in a little guard tower.
There's barricades and things.
It is not shut down.
The government, they're like, oh, we're not doing anything here.
No, there's no staff.
Yeah, there's guys in guard towers.
There's guys with guns patrolling the perimeter.
Whatever they've still got going on there, or at least they had back, you know, over a decade ago.
now but who knows i doubt they would turn that over to just anyone they've got whatever they've got
see lou they're still guarding this thing it's this underground facility and it's there to withstand a
nuclear attack and that's his point he talks about that one and then how they passed off the
communications to one that's in charlotte and but then the big one is in ravenrock where they're all
going to go and um you know they they believe that they're going to pull off this dr strangelove type of thing
And they probably will at some point in time.
The strangest thing about Big Hole is how innocuous it is.
It's just this little road off of this other little road that is, you know,
nothing of importance is over there.
And, you know, you just turn down it.
It doesn't look like anything.
Then all of a sudden the trees kind of break and it's just guard tower, fencing,
guys with guns, just how many of these places are scattered around the country
that the general population doesn't know about?
but you know the locals of this one town goes oh yeah that's the military base you don't go down
there if you do they'll point the guns at you and tell you go away well it's mostly just
ignored or dismissed by people you know there was jokes of oh yeah that's where they're dissecting
the aliens uh area 51 is just a distraction from big hole etc etc you know no one uh really thought
there was anything there it's everyone if you pushed them on oh yeah that's just a deactivated
military yeah it's not there in it's it's been shut down long ago yeah that type of thing
If there was ever anything there, it's been shut down.
Well, actually, no.
And so Karen was curious.
Sure, Jan.
And she takes the kids with her on.
Turn around.
I love that was really funny.
But anyway, that's, yeah, Big Hole and Raven Rock and all the rest of that stuff.
Yeah.
Unfortunately, I think that that movie, even though it was, it did like some, we go through this critical juncture there.
And you'd see it from the perspective of one.
group of people. Then they jump back in time and you see, uh, from the perspective of another
group of people leading up to that critical moment. And so they did that like three or four
different times. They jumped back and, uh, you know, you see it as people are viewing it from
their perspective, which is, uh, you may like that. You may not. I thought it was kind of an interesting
your mileage may vary. Yeah, it can be a little bit difficult to follow, but anyway. Got some comments
from Lou Geh for Liberty that I'm seeing says, I'm in Chatham County and I've been to big hole road.
We were told it was a telecommunications.
uplink. I've always felt it was part of continuity
of government. Yeah, that's what it is.
Yeah. He says
he's sneaked up to it at night before.
He says, the damn thing is like 10 stories
deep. Yeah.
It's a, just a giant, from what I
remember, the thing is a giant
concrete cylinder bunker that has just
been sunk into the ground.
And just no one really knows
what's in it. It's never been admitted
as far as I'm aware. That was the thing that was interesting about
House of Dynamite. When it began,
They're in this very, very busy room, and they're processing the fact that there's a missile that has been launched headed to the United States and how they're going to try to intercept it and so forth.
And then you have a military guy come in to the woman who's running everything.
She's got a headset.
She's giving orders to everybody.
They said, you need to come with me right now.
We're going to go to a secure location.
I said, I'm not leaving these people here.
And so they start pulling out one by one key people.
that are there. And then the people are left behind are like, what? But that's kind of a microcosm
of the way the whole government looks at the nuclear war thing, right? You're not essential.
Remember that? None of us were essential in 2020. And you better believe we're not going to be
considered to be essential when their calculations about nuclear war are brought into the picture
either. The one thing a nuclear apocalypse will definitely need is bureaucrats.
that's the thing
they're going to have
bureaucrats who can't do anything
and they'll
I mean
you survived the fallout
you've
scrimped and saved
and managed to make it someplace
and you just encounter
a horde of bureaucrats
coming out of a government bunker
truly a nightmare
I mean they do have plans in place
for collecting taxes
after a nuclear bomb goes off
they've got to implement those somehow
that's right
my question is all right so you know nuclear apocalypse happens you guys all get down into the bunkers
what keeps the toughest guy with the tough you know biggest gun from immediately going all right
so i know we kind of voted you into power but that was before all this happened so you clean
the toilets now just i don't think we really need your skill set anymore well that's why you need
to see the movie civil war which we watched this weekend and
And we saw the movie Civil War.
That's kind of a reckoning moment there.
What kind of American, are you?
Yeah, the president gets a reckoning moment.
But, yeah, it was, for the most part, that movie, I was almost ready to turn it off
because it was just this, you know, almost post-apocalyptic America where it's just, you know,
pockets of sanity versus total chaos.
And, you know, people just going around killing people.
because they want to. And I think that's a pretty accurate idea of what will happen in a civil war.
But then he got to the point where they were closing in on Washington and it's like, okay, I want to see this.
There was a great book about the Civil War that I picked up at Gettysburg.
It was written by a battlefield tour guide. And it was called If the South had won at Gettysburg.
And the cover, which really caught my eye, was an astronaut on the moon planting a Confederate flag
a better time a brighter timeline but it was actually a very interesting premise because he changes
just like one thing it's like an alternative history thing and you realize just how close things were
and you know just slightly change it and and then left everything else the way it was the
the horrific weather that happened the next day that allowed Lee to escape with remnants of his
army without being pursued and and the fact that they had
had, if they had won there, they had a clear path to come in on the north side of Washington
where there was no protection whatsoever. And it would have been a real pivot moment at that point.
But so when I watch the Civil War, maybe to take me back to that particular novel.
Anyway, I like historical fiction that is alternative, especially since I don't like the way
Things really turned out.
Perhaps what if we were to just change one thing?
Yeah, it could be better?
Yeah, see, a comment here from Nibruh, 2029 says,
Emperor Trump's legacy movie was released in 2009, starring Vigo Mortensen titled The Road.
Let's hope not that movie is terribly depressing.
I believe it's another Cormac McCarthy story, and that's all he wrote.
That's all the Cormac McCarthy, as far as I'm aware, never wrote any feel-good stories.
the nights of the storm wait for it Trump will find a way to get people to go along with it
talking about ID yeah digital ID for the internet yeah you read that second one there
yeah dug to 007 this is such an offensive ad no wonder Trump was livid sarcasm yeah so bogus
Reagan is basically the previous false idol of Republicans the previous demigod of the right Trump is
worse though yeah for years when they were
have debates when the frontrunner was not afraid of debates. Everybody would say, but Ronald Reagan
this and Ronald Reagan, remember going back to 2016 debates where there's a large field of
Republicans? And all them were wrapping themselves and Ronald Reagan. And you better believe
that they're all going to be doing that with Trump when he's gone. They'll be doing the same
thing. I got really sick of hearing. But Ronald Reagan did this. What would Reagan do? You know, that
type of thing.
Never stopped.
Yeah. We also have
so bogus. As a big part of this is just to have
Trump doing or reacting to something
outrageous every other day to distract
from the big picture. And he does a good job
of the real octo spook. They are in business to make
money, not pay money. American citizens
pay all of it.
Yeah, as a matter of fact, we've got a story coming
up where AI
is being, they're going to start to
incorporate AI in terms of
writing story scripts for
WWE. That may be the
best use case of it yet.
But interestingly enough,
Trump is pulling in,
pulled in people from the WWE
into his administration.
Because that's what the Trump administration is.
It's all about creating this fake
narrative and getting people all hyped up
and heroes and heels.
That's what it's all about. He learned that
lesson really well with his close
ties to the McMan's.
Linna McMahon is the
head of the Department
of Education. If that whole thing,
about getting rid of the Department of Education.
If that isn't a professional wrestling narrative,
I don't know what is.
They're not going to do anything about that.
They're still going to hand out the money,
and if you hand out the money,
you're still controlling the education.
Whoever funds it is going to control it.
And they're going to keep in the funding aspect of it.
So, again, it's going to,
each successive administration is going to have different things
that they're going to bribe and blackmail people to do
through the money.
And Trump is going to preserve all of that.
whether he has a large bureaucracy there or not.
You could at least do something fun,
like make a WWE wrestler,
the press secretary, or something like that.
That's right.
We're reporting live from the press room, Paul.
The Undertaker is just at Don Lemon with a steel chair.
Well, he's going to have, for the 4th of July,
he's going to have a big ultimate fighting contest.
Yeah, I don't want to watch two UFC fighters beat up each other.
I want to watch the Undertaker take Don Lemon to task.
That's a way, come on.
The UFC, I don't want to watch two Chechens wrestle each other.
other. Who cares?
Nibrew 2029. Throughout history, tariffs have always been an instrument of the wealthy to further
increase the aristocracies. Well, Audi, M-R-R. Magovators amaze me. They hate everything about
Operation Warp Speed, but love the guy who green lighted it.
Audi, Audi, don't you know? It wasn't Trump. It was the bad Democrat governors who did it all.
That's what I've heard so many times. It's all those nasty Democrats fall.
Yeah. Yeah. About that WWEAI. That's
the Not Sure AI. It's so smart. It's going to come up with everything. We got this AI called
Not Sure. He says that we got to put electrolytes in the plant food. Idiocracy. Yeah.
Classic. Brandon Bennett, Big Hole is where they should have their no Kings protest.
They could secret them all the way, squirrel them all deep into the bowels of the earth.
Real Jason Barker at Steve Evs, that's where they keep all their stolen cash.
Brand a minute says stolen cash and children.
Yeah, yeah.
Don't worry, guys.
Donald Trump is down in the tunnels, fist fighting the lizard people for those stolen children.
The crazy thing about nuclear war is it would kill just about everyone except for the people that maybe shouldn't survive it.
Well, they are not going to be capable of taking care of themselves, that's for sure.
We're going to take a quick break, folks, and we will be right back.
Excellencies, ladies and gentlemen, here Klaus.
Your annual global risk report makes for a stunning and sobering read.
For the global business community, the top concern for the next two years is not conflict or climate.
It is disinformation and misinformation.
Followed closely by polarization within our societies.
In a world of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
You are listening to the David Knight Show.
Here's a little song I wrote.
You might want to hear it in your pot.
You'll owe nothing and be happy.
Ain't got no cash, ain't got no car, but 24 booster shots in your arm, oh nothing.
Be happy.
You can't even buy shit in the store because of your low social credit score.
O nothing.
Be happy.
You'll owe nothing.
And be happy.
Be happy and eat the bugs.

They're one of our supporters.
Venezuela has claimed capture of CIA,
linked mercenaries.
And then they said,
it looks like they were
setting or setting up to do a false flag attack.
I mean,
the CIA wouldn't do that, would they?
No.
Trump has not even made a secret of the fact that he's got CIA in place.
It's not made a secret of the fact that he's got a massive buildup of
a military force there as well.
So will it be another Gulf of Tonkin incident?
It's kind of interesting, you know,
when we look at the Gulf of Tonkin, did you get that to, yeah, we got that clip here.
Let me play this from the fog of war, and just to give you an idea of what happened.
Errol Morris was a film documentarian, and before he got into doing film documentaries,
he used to be an investigator, an interrogator, and he really knows how to read people
and how to interview them.
I mean, he's just amazing.
He had a documentary called The Thin Blue Line, and it was.
was about, he didn't start out to do this documentary.
He started out to do a documentary about the death penalty and people on death row.
And one of the people that he talked to, he became convinced that the guy was innocent and that the police had grabbed this guy and railroaded him simply because they have to be seen to immediately solve the issue if a police officer is killed.
So a cop had been killed.
So we immediately got to grab their guy and said, we got the perp.
And he's guilty, and they railroaded him to give him the death penalty.
And so, Errol Morris started interviewing people.
He started getting interested in this case.
And he figured out who the guy was that really did it.
And he actually got the guy to confess to doing the murder.
And one of the things that he would do, this is 20, 30 years ago,
he would set up a teleprompter, and he would use it so that people were doing
like a Zoom conference call or something.
And by taking himself out of the room and they were no longer talking to him, they were kind
of talking to a TV, which people have a different attitude about it than than they do now.
And so it gave this level of separation and abstraction.
And it kind of disarmed them along with his excellent skills of being an investigator and
interrogator himself.
He called it the Interrotron.
And he said it really took people's guard down when instead of
talking to him directly. He might just be in the next room, but he was talking to them
through the teleprompter, through the monitor. And so he did that with Robert McNamara,
who basically was the architect and engineer of the Vietnam War before he was then sent
off to the IMF fund and began enslaving, developing countries with debt to the IMF. But anyway,
he talked to Robert McNamara for about two or three days and put this documentary together. And as part
it, I thought it's very interesting, the Gulf of Tonkin incident.
And McNamara essentially admitted that they made it up.
On August 2nd, the destroyer Maddox reported it was attacked by a North Vietnamese patrol boat.
It was an act of aggression against us.
We were in international waters.
I sent officials from the Defense Department out,
and we recovered pieces of North Vietnamese shells
that were clearly identified as North Vietnamese shells
from the deck of the Maddox.
So there was no...
I guess I said, made it in North Vietnam.
But in any event, we didn't respond.
How they wind up getting fragments
and not being shot? I don't understand.
But it gets worse.
Later, the Maddox of the Turner Joy,
two destroyers reported they were.
attacked.
Where are these torpedoes coming from?
Well, we don't know.
Presumably from these unidentified craft.
There were sonar soundings, torpedoes had been detected, other indications of attack from patrol boats.
We spent about 10 hours that day trying to find out what in the hell had happened.
At one point, the commander of the ship said, we're not certain of the attack.
Another point, they said, yes, we're absolutely positive.
And then finally, late in the day, Admiral Sharp said, yes, we're certain it happened.
So I reported this to Johnson, and as a result, there were bombing attacks on targets in North Vietnam.
A bombing attack that was so severe you weren't certain for 10 hours of debate as to whether it actually happened, let alone who did it.
Johnson said, we may have to escalate.
I'm not going to do it without congressional authority.
And he put forward a resolution, the language of which gave complete authority to the president to take the nation to war.
The Tonkin Gulf Resolution.
Unlike Trump.
Now, let me...
Trump is worse than L.B.J.
His fourth attack.
Well, apparently, been at least nine.
nine torpedoes in the water.
All missed.
Yeah.
No, I don't, wait my not.
I'm not sure about this number of engaged.
Right.
We'd have to check it out here.
He said many of the reported contacts in torpedoes fired appear doubtful.
Freak weather effects on radar and over-eager solarmen
may have accounted for many reports.
reports. Okay, well, I'll tell
Mr. McNair of this.
That's the best I can give you, Dave. Sorry.
It does appear now that a lot
of these torpedo attacks were from the
sonar man, you see, and
they get keyed up to a thing like this. Everything they hear on the sonar
is a torpedo. You're pretty sure there was a torpedo attack, though.
Oh, no doubt about that, I think.
I think. No doubt, I think.
It was just confusion.
And events afterwards showed that our judgment that we'd been attacked that day was wrong.
It didn't happen.
Yeah, nine torpedoes.
They all missed.
And somehow, I look at that.
And it's like, did North Korea have submarines that were shooting torpedoes?
Or are they coming off of some boats?
never identified the boats that were shooting their torpedoes and i don't think that they had
submarines what nice it's our judgment that day was wrong it turns out we mistakenly thought that
we had been shot by torpedoes and that gave us the uh excuse to do everything that we had wanted
to do before that oops our mistake sorry guys yeah you know and he tries to talk about that incident
earlier was like yeah there was some uh shrapnel from some shells and it was definitely north
Korea. It must have said, you know, made in North Korea on the shelves or something. They were not
hit with anything. And they claimed that they were hit with that earlier one and then claimed that
this was the incident that got us into the Gulf of Tonkin, a war that is based on lies and
false flags, folks. That's what we've had from the American government and the Pentagon so many
times in the last 60 years or so.
So the Maduro regime said Sunday that Venezuela has captured a group of alleged mercenaries
with ties to the U.S. CIA.
They accused Washington and Trinidad and Tobago of coordinating military exercises intended
to provoke an armed confrontation in the Caribbean.
The government there said the arrest revealed what it described as a false flag operation,
planned from waters bordering Trinidad and Tobago
or from Trinidadian or Venezuelan territory
to generate a full-scale military confrontation against Venezuela.
In other words, when you go back and look at the Gulf of Tonkin incident,
it's not necessary to actually take out an American ship
or do any damage or even hit it.
You can just have a situation where they allege
that they were fired upon.
without result. And that is sufficient for us to go to war. Now, on the other hand, we can blow up one
fishing ship after the other, one drug ship, even if it is a drug ship. It's still murder on the high seas by
Trump. And that's perfectly fine. That's the asymmetric rules of war. But then there's another
kind of asymmetric war when they actually get on the ground. Those are the kind of asymmetric wars that
we always lose. The announcement comes amid fast-growing build-up of U.S. forces in the Caribbean
launched by Trump to combat, he says, drug cartels. That's the fundamental lie right there.
The administration signaled that might soon authorize ground incursions into Venezuela to target
the so-called cartel of the sun, a narco-trafficking organization in the imagination of
Trump. The Venezuelan government did not release any evidence or details.
about this. And of course, you know, again, when we look at, let's go to Trump instead of to
LBJ. When you look at candidate Trump, he told us that the Iraq war was based on lies about
weapons of mass destruction. That part was true. But then he took the person who ran the torture,
the person who sold the lies to the White House, Gina Haspel of the CIA, and he made her,
his head of the CIA, his effective head of the CIA.
CIA at the beginning. He had Pompeo, who was the official head, but she was number two.
Then Pompeo moved to Secretary of State, and she moved to be the truly official one who
was running the CIA. So he says that we get into a war based on lies, and then he puts the
person who lied about it in charge of the CIA. Classic Donald Trump, telling you what they're
doing and how corrupt it is, and then doubling down on what they were doing in the corruption.
The alleged arrest, such as the number of suspects, their nationalities, when and where they were detained, has not been released.
Caracas also linked the alleged plot to military drills that it claims are being carried out this week by Trinidad and Tobago under the coordination, financing, and control of the U.S. Southern Command, calling them a hostile provocation and a grave threat to the peace of the Caribbean, a statement released by Trinidad and Tobago's prime minister.
By the way, the prime minister's name is Kamla.
Yeah, by Kamala.
So close.
Yeah, but Kamala.
To act, I said that
the Venezuelan statement accused, the Venezuelan statement accused,
that country, Trinidad, and Tobago,
of acting as a military colony,
subordinated to U.S. hegemonic interests.
The Miami Herald could not independently confirm the
rest of any group or existence of coordinated operations involving the CIA, or the Doral-based
U.S. Southern Command, which oversees military operations in Latin America. The Caracas people compared
the supposed plan to the historical events, such as the USS Maine explosion in Cuba in 1898, which we
know was a false flag, as well as the Gulf of Tonkin. And so this may or may not be real. I mean,
since the CIA and the U.S. government and the Pentagon have a history of staging false flag events
and using them as a pretext of war, they might be just referring back to that history
knowing that people would believe that's likely something that the U.S. would do.
I do believe it is likely that the U.S. would do it.
I don't know if they have done it yet, but I think that they're likely to do it at some point in time.
The government said the alleged provocation follows the same pattern
and accused Washington of seeking a pretext for war in the region.
And again, the U.S. keeps doing it.
Why?
Because it works.
It works every time with the American public.
Following the Trump administration's decision to amass the largest U.S.
military presence, the Caribbean has seen in decades,
in order to supposedly combat drug cartel operations in the region,
well, I'm sure that they'll be able to win this imaginary drug war,
because it doesn't exist in the first place.
So Trump will be able to declare victory with that.
Next day is going to be taking on the little green men and UFOs and beat them as well.
The buildup of U.S. forces continues.
Over the past two months, the Pentagon has deployed close to 10,000 troops,
most of them based in Puerto Rico,
along with a contingent of Marines aboard amphibious assault ships.
The U.S. Navy has positioned at least 10 warships
and a submarine in the Caribbean as part of the expanded force.
So those Marines and the 10,000 troops,
they'll be sent eventually to go kill and die for Trump's lies.
That's what's really going to happen here,
just as people were sent into Vietnam to kill and to die
for the lies of LBJ and Robert McNamara.
Trump has indicated that the U.S. is now considering ground operations,
while his administration has quietly granted
the CIA new powers to conduct covert activities in the South American country.
They don't even try to hide it anymore.
They used to be ashamed of this stuff, and they should be ashamed.
So a senior U.S. Republican says that Maduro's days are numbered, and of course, this
would be Rick Scott, a senior Republican from Florida, who is there, Rubio from Florida,
and Rick Scott from Florida, they're both looking at this as a way to come after Cuba as well.
Because there is a connection between Venezuela and Cuba.
There's no connection between Venezuela and fentanyl at all.
But there is a connection that they're not talking about between Venezuela and Cuba.
Venezuela, even though they have not been able to capitalize and to operate on this massive reserve of oil,
they have more oil than Saudi Arabia, but they can't get it out of the ground
because they're communists and they don't know how it works it's going to be like the the bureaucrats
who survive at ravenrock they're not going to have to get anything
wait a minute can't grow any crops can't get any oil out of the ground and can't refine it and so
forth but so Venezuela is getting a little bit of oil to Cuba and they want to cut that off
they want to isolate Cuba next and that's one of the reasons why Rubio has been so hell-bent
on Venezuela. It's a way to attack Cuba, you know, kind of like Ukraine and Russia, that
type of thing. And so Rick Scott is also from Florida, and he is also going to be heavily
influenced by the conservative Republicans, which is, you know, Cubans in Florida, for the
most part, conservative and Republican. I grew up in Florida, and I knew a lot of Cubans. I was
in bands with a lot of Cubans and had great trumpet players. But they did. They did.
have an obsession with Castro and like I understand I don't like Castro either and but maybe this is
going to be maybe this administration be the one that can finally pull off the bay of pigs it takes
the administration of pigs to do it I guess and they've got just the personnel I think to pull off the
bay of pigs so this is Rick Scott who is on the Senate Armed Services and Foreign Relations
Committee he said Maduro's days are numbered whether it's internal or excellent
I think something's going to happen to him, right?
He should head to Russia or to China.
And then we had another senator who chimed in over the weekend.
This is Senator Langford, who is not from an area that is heavily influenced by Cubans,
and he had this to say.
The administration needs to give insight into Congress.
That's part of it.
If this was happening with this level of insight under the Biden administration,
I'd be apoplectic.
Yeah, let's think about the president.
And I would say, hey, listen, I serve on the,
Intelligence Committee. He serves as a senior Democrat on defense. This is typical consultation.
It's not permission, but it is, hey, I want to let you know this is happening and hear the
details of what's happening, and here's why and what, and here's what we know. Here's what we know
about each one of these incidents that has occurred in the people that are there. That's important.
We're all elected officials. We're in a co-equal branch of government, and we've got to be
able to have that kind of coordination. Now, we need to be able to engage on drugs.
I have Oklahomans that are dying from methamphetamine, from cocaine, from fentanyl,
and from different drugs that are laced with fentanyl on it and mixing it in.
That's happening in my state as it's happening all around the country.
We've tried a lot of different approaches to be able to stop it.
The president has turned the volume up to 11 and said, no, we're going to stop drugs coming into our country that are killing folks.
So he's putting tariffs on countries that are allowing the precursors to be able to come over into North America.
You know, like Canada.
Direct action against those folks that are trying to deliver the drugs.
that are killing americans you know like min as well really appropriate to do what we're missing
is the communication the coordination and the ability to be able to say let's talk out loud about
this we're not as opponent on this we're an ally in this to be able to solve it but we need to be
able to have a voice on it as a co-equal branch okay you think you're co-equal branch when you've
abdicated uh the necessity of congressional deliberation before we go to war you say you're co-equal
pathetic.
Yeah, you know, we want to stop the drugs.
I want to stop the drugs.
So let's do it by force.
That's worked so well for 50 plus years.
Let's continue to do more force.
Let's turn it up to 11.
And then meanwhile, we don't even know who to shoot at, right?
We're going to attack countries that aren't bringing the drugs in.
Why is that?
Why don't we go to the countries that are bringing the drugs in?
Well, because they're working with the CIA.
which is also a part of this.
So, you know, you're only going to go to Panama
when the CIA's partner
decides that he's going to go a different route.
Then we've got to take that guy out.
They're just another drug gang.
The CIA and Pentagon, the rest of them,
as far as I'm concerned, they're just another drug gang.
So you've got Rick Scott saying that Maduro
is an illegitimate murderous dictator.
Well, that may be true, but that's definitely true of Trump.
He's a murderist dictator, and there's no question about it.
He even brags about it.
So this is an article from DropSight News.
Inside Marco Rubio's push for regime change in Venezuela, there is no fentanyl coming from the country,
according to U.S. intelligence even.
This is another Trump lie for war.
He said that, again, you know, when you go back and look at the Iraq war,
He promotes the people who sell these types of lies.
And so U.S.
intelligence has assessed that little to none of the fentanyl traffic to the United States is being produced in Venezuela, despite recent claims from the Trump administration.
And again, Ram Paul laid this whole thing out.
He said there's no fentanyl coming in from Venezuela, according to the people who are doing this.
Not only that, but these ships that they're blowing up couldn't make it.
They don't have sufficient fuel to make it.
make the trip to the U.S.
They're not coming here at all.
But as they blow up these ships, the murderous little dictator, Don, is saying,
look, we've stopped it from sea.
Now we've got to go to land in order to stop it.
You stopped something that wasn't happening.
There's no way these ships could actually make it to the United States.
Thank you, Senator Paul.
What do you need to hear in a briefing?
What questions do you have?
You know, it's not so much about a briefing, but we have.
I haven't had a briefing. To be clear, we've got no information. I've been invited to no briefing.
But a briefing is not enough to overcome the Constitution. The Constitution says that when you go to war, Congress has to vote on it.
And during a war, then, there's a lower rules for engagement. People do sometimes get killed without due process.
But the drug war or the war or the crime war has typically been something we do through law enforcement.
And so far, they have alleged that these people are drug dealers. No one said their name. No one said what evidence?
no one said whether they're armed, and we've had no evidence presented.
So at this point, I would call them extrajudicial killings.
And this is akin to what China does, to Iran does with drug dealers.
They summarily execute people without presenting evidence to the public.
So it's wrong.
Yeah, and so officials who talked to drop-site news noted that many of the boats targeted for strikes by the Trump administration
do not even have the requisite gasoline or motor capacity to reach.
U.S. waters. And of course, that is what Rampal has also said. These officials are retired
intelligence officials as well who talked to drop site news. The claim is backed by recent comments
made by Senator Rampal, who similarly noted that zero fentanyl is produced in Venezuela. But despite
all this and the lack of any intelligence leaking Venezuela with fentanyl production, the Trump
administration has made the alleged Venezuelan drug trafficking the cause of war in its drive to
overthrow the government of Maduro. Trump referred to the possible ground action, claiming at a press
conference that the, quote, sea drugs coming in are 5% of what they were a year ago. So they're
coming in by land. And so we're going to have to attack the land next. So he is saying that he
stop the flow of drugs by sea, which we're never coming here by sea.
And so now he's going to go to land to stop the drugs that are not coming here by land next.
We just keep winning.
Yeah, you're tired of winning?
I'm tired of wars, actually.
The two sources familiar with discussions of the White House.
Note that Secretary of State Marco Rubio, a longtime proponent of regime change in Venezuela,
has been the driving force behind the aggressive military and
rhetorical posture toward the Maduro regime.
I guess we should call this if it happens.
We should call it Little Marco's War.
He's also in charge of the remnants of U.S. AID, the U.S. Agency for International Development.
This is the CIA propaganda people.
And this is where Barack Obama's mama used to work.
The Obama mama used to work at the U.S. AID.
his her parents, his grandparents on her side were some of the founding members of the CIA
coming over from the OSS.
So USAID has redirected millions of dollars and money previously allocated for pro-democracy
measures in Venezuela and surrounding countries in a thinly veiled effort to prep the region
for war.
So they come in and they do the propaganda type of stuff like Tucker Carlson's dad did with
voice of America, except USAID is even more directly involved with the CIA. And you remember when
Doge was going through when there was a fight between Elon Musk and Marco Rubio. Rubio was
absolutely apoplectic that they were shutting down USAID. He wanted this little, this dirty little
propaganda liars. He wanted to keep them around. Rubio cycled through multiple arguments for regime
change in Venezuela during the early months of the administration, largely based around human
rights and election concerns, which were unconvincing to Trump. After assuming a position on
the National Security Council in the spring, Rubio then presented a new argument to Trump
that Maduro was a narco-terrorist drug trafficker. There you go. So this absurd lie about fentanyl
coming from Venezuela, came from Little Marco.
I wonder if he's the one who told Trump that fentanyl was coming in from Canada as well.
Yeah, Robert Baron Trump said last October, though, that he wanted the oil.
Remember that?
When he was running for office, he said, yeah, Venezuela, we could have taken the oil.
We've got to take the oil.
Same thing he said about Syria as well.
With Trump unable so far to carry out attacks on Mexican cartels,
strikes seen as politically untenable.
Yeah, because, you know, the CIA is mixed in with these guys,
so we don't want to attack the guys who are working with us,
only if they stop working with us.
We do that.
Rubio effectively steered his gaze to Maduro,
said, hey, you want to go shoot somebody in the streets like your hero, Rodrigo Duterte?
Well, we can do that in Venezuela.
They're doing drugs as well.
Oh, really?
Oh, okay, sure.
Rubio's policy was most recently at a crossroads after Maduro offered to turn over the oil resources to the U.S.
in exchange for a cessation of hostilities.
Again, trying to buy off these, you know, Maduro's not stupid.
He knows what's going on.
He knows that it's not about the drugs, he's not doing them.
He knows it's about the oil that they want.
So he says, here, I'll give you some oil.
How about that?
Can we just not have a war?
but Trump acknowledged the offer in a recent appearance saying Maduro offered everything.
You know why?
Because he doesn't want to eff around with the U.S.
He's a thug gangster.
He's a casino mafia owner.
Trump rejected the offer after being swayed by arguments from Rubio
that the best way to secure Venezuela's oil reserves was to facilitate regime change
and to make a better deal with a new government.
Yeah, we don't want to.
have him paying us. We can put our own guy in there and we'll get even more oil at a better
price or no price at all. A recent U.S. government assessment of Venezuela and oil exports to China
found nearly half a million barrels a day. A small fraction of the country's total capacity,
which Trump is turning down in the immediate term. So he's going to go for the whole thing.
He's the mafia boss says, hey, it's a nice business you got there. It'd be a shame if something
happened to it, right? Yeah, I'll give you a cut of it.
but I think I'll just take the whole thing
and I'll kill you in the process.
Foreign policy under Trump has come to be dominated
by a group known inside the administration
as the gang of five. And let me just say here
what a disgusting, pathetic display
it was of Alex Jones and Patrick Byrne
to cheer an American war in Venezuela
for the oil. I'm disgusted with him.
People just own this corruption anymore.
They own the law.
lies, they own the wars, and they're absolutely unashamed about it.
So the gang of five, consisting of Rubio Stephen Miller, Susie Wiles, the chief of staff,
Steve Whitkoff, Trump's all-around envoy and former real estate partner.
That's what he, I guess, you know, I guess when you look at it, I guess all geopolitics
is about real estate, right?
It's about scouting out what you want.
The only difference is, is that when you're president, you don't have to pay for
anything. You know, taxpayers to pay for the bombs and missiles that kill people so that you can
steal their land. So I guess that's what Witkoff is there for, just like he was there in Israel.
And then Vice President J.D. Vance. Warhawk Secretary Pete Hegeseth, in a bid for internal
relevance, has eagerly executed Rubio's strategy, regularly striking boats that he claims
without evidence are carrying drugs, and then burning the passengers alive.
How exactly Rubio is spending the pro-democracy funds from the USAID from which buckets
is not made clear in federal disclosures, but a flurry of contracts in neighboring countries
indicates a surge of military preparation in Colombia.
Much of the U.S. backed resistance to Maduro, including the disastrous Operation Gideon
coup attempt in May of 2020, has been based out of Colombia and Guyana.
In late September, the U.S. State Department's International Law Enforcement Arms signed a two-year, $4.8 billion
Columbia Virtual Shooting Range, quote-unquote, contract with Arizona-based Vertra, Inc.
There are also two foreign military sales through the U.S. Coast Guard.
And so, you know, when we talk about Colombia, isn't that interesting that we would partner with the country that is actually
sending drugs to the U.S.
Because, again, the CIA is at the center of all this.
We could see that in Afghanistan.
You know, they took over the fields that the Taliban was shutting down.
They had it less than 10% of the world supply was coming out of Afghanistan, and we
jumped it up to the high 90s, a record amount.
Every year it was a bigger bumper crop, and we had U.S. troops guarding the fields for
them, and presumably the CIA getting the opioids and being able to do it.
distribute them. While the contracts indicate millions being poured into Colombia, the wave of funding
could now be undermined by President Petro's recent condemnation of the lethal U.S. air strike
on a fishing boat in Colombian waters. On October 3rd, Maduro's vice president accused Exxon
of funding a military assault in the region.
So they're accusing Exxon of doing military assaults as well.
The interesting thing is that Exxon's competitor, which is also headquartered out of Houston,
Chevron is a partner of the Venezuelan government.
So this is very much like Smedley Butler saying, you know, we're going to war
for the United Fruit Company.
Here we are, this is
something of a war between
Exxon and Chevron.
So Chevron's allied with
Venezuelan government and Maduro, and
Exxon is opposing them from the outside.
It reminds me
of that Terry Gilliam movie,
I was at Time Bandits,
where they had
he had skyscrapers
that they were moving.
They were selling them like ships,
like they were sailing ships.
and they had basically a hostile corporate takeover he represented as these pirates
that were sailing the skyscrapers through the streets of a city and shooting at each other.
I mean, that's basically what we've got going on here, corporations getting involved and all this.
The U.S. government has attempted to overthrow the socialist government of Venezuela for decades,
including through the USAID's Office of Transition Initiatives.
Oh, that's a nice euphemism for a coup, a transition initiative.
The U.S.'s quasi-overt international political action arm, the National Endowment for Democracy,
the NED, another CIA thing, has the challenging task of funding nonprofits and journalists
in a manner which, on the one hand, advances U.S. foreign policy goals, and on the other, allows
grantees to still claim independence.
Even Trump's first administration reportedly expressed frustration with a covert democracy
promotion campaign by the CIA against Venezuela and President Maduro in 2019 being indistinguishable
from its overt counterparts.
So again, this is the same stuff being recycled.
So you can imagine that whether or not it's true, they would suspect that this, you know,
There's going to be some kind of a false flag like the Gulf of Tonkin.
Well, the Trump administration has gutted the majority of USAID's political action programs
during its first few months in office.
So again, this is the gang that can't shoot straight.
Trump wants to literally go to war to stop drugs, even though force has not worked.
So he doesn't know which country to attack.
And so he's now cut off the propagandists and the people that are there
to start the coups.
He shut them down largely earlier as well.
So I don't think this whole thing is going to go too well.
But there is a large aircraft carrier group, the USS Gerald Ford, that is slowly moving
its way from the, I'll see, where is it?
It's in the Mediterranean, I think, and it's now headed to the Caribbean.
And so this is one of these deals.
It's kind of reminds me of the Falkland Wars, where they had this slow moving.
Armada coming from the U.K. going down to the Falkland Islands in Argentina, and so we'll see what
happens. Admiral Halsey, remember, had a three-year job, and he quit one year into it,
evidently, because he was not happy with what was going on with the Southern Command.
So the Gerald Ford has been deployed in the Mediterranean, that's it, yeah, and it is off of the
coast of Croatia and the Adriatic Sea, so now it's on its way to the Caribbean, and I guess
when it gets there, I guess this whole thing will commence.
Well, we're going to take a quick break and we'll read the comments when we come back.
I just want to say that I just really find it disgusting to see that they can keep playing the same games over and over again.
But again, we can have, you fool most of the people most of the time, evidently, because they're able to do it with Donald Trump.
We're going to take a quick break and we'll be right back.
I'm going to be.
And so on the
I'm going to
I'm going to
I'm going
I'm going
I'm going
to be the
I'm going
We're going to be able to be.
We're going to be able to be.
Liberty, it's your move.

Well, Marky, thank you.
He says, I was a sonar man in the U.S. Navy, and I've heard torpedoes in the water.
There is nothing that sounds like them.
Once you've heard a torpedo, you never forget it sound.
Well, again, you know, these were assessments that were being made by the superior officers there.
And I imagine that they were trying to come up with an excuse for why they might have lied or given conflicting information.
I think the guys on sonar were just freaking out about what was happening there.
That probably wasn't the case at all.
They were probably just floundering around trying to find some flimsy excuse to say they'd been
attacked.
I seriously don't think that they were attacked then or the incident a couple of days earlier
than that.
And so I think it was just lies being told by the people who were in command and by the
civilian leadership in order to start a war.
A war that was based on the
not just based on a false flag, but based on the total historical ignorance about the relationship
between China and Vietnam for over a thousand years.
They'd been in conflict with each other.
And then also based on another foundational lie about the domino theory and what was going
to happen if we lost in Vietnam.
All of Southeast Asia was going to fall to the Chinese communists.
And of course, none of that happened.
And so we, it's been very clearly.
shown that the whole thing was an invented lie.
Well, before we move on, I want to talk about what's going on with gold and silver,
which I think is kind of interesting.
London is facing a 150 million ounce silver shortfall.
This is on Friday amid the Comex Drain, said an insider.
Now, think about how much that is in terms of weight.
That's about 4.7 tons of silver.
And in terms of, you know, $50 an ounce, that's about $7.5 billion that, well, we can't fill that order.
It's supposedly here, but we can't find the physical silver that is there.
A massive physical drain of silver from Comex warehouses is accelerating, this is on Friday, signaling profound stress in the global delivery system, even as a fundamental structural change, is redefining goals role as an asset.
said a former bullion bank executive Bob Gottlieb on Thursday.
And an exclusive interview, he revealed that 29 million ounces of silver
had been physically removed from comics warehouses in just the last two weeks.
He also issued a stark warning about the opaque platinum market,
suggesting the situation there may be even more dire.
The physical exodus comes after a turbulent,
week that saw gold plunge nearly five and a half percent and silver dropping seven and a half
percent on the same day. The most acute stress is in the physical silver market, centering on
a dramatic reversal of flows between the world's two most important trading hubs, the
comics in New York, which is the primary U.S. futures exchange, and the London market, the world's
largest center for physical trading. The London vaults were depleted of the readily available
metal or their free-floating stock by a perfect storm of demand. We talked about that last week.
Part of the demand was coming from India. It went from 305 million down to maybe 125 million ounces,
and that has created this entire tightness. The shortage in London has now caused a violent
reversal. The premium for spot silver in London has made it highly profitable for banks to take
physical metal from the comics and ship it back across the Atlantic. So we went from 530 million
ounces to 501 million today. So that's roughly 29 million ounces of silver that's been shipped
out of the U.S. Gottlieb said, I believe we need another 100 to 150 million ounces physically
in London for the market to normalize. The physical pressure is accumulating as gold is
undergoing what Gottlieb calls a different kind of rally, driven by a structural change in how gold is
viewed by the world's largest financial players. He said the entire central bank world is
diversifying away from the dollar. And they're doing that via gold. They're using a gold rather
than the dollar. And he said, the interesting thing is that when you look at the European Central Bank,
they just announced that their number two holding and their reserves is gold surpassing the euro.
They hold more gold than they hold even of their own currency.
And of course, these things we've talked about with Tony Ardibund of Wisewulf Gold.
And it's just this shortage and the massive amount of shortage that came up towards the end of the week last week.
It's a very, very unusual thing.
Gold made up about 20% of global official reserves at the end of 2024,
surpassing the euro's 16% share.
Gottlieb characterized the week's dramatic price crash.
as an extremely healthy event designed to purge speculative excess from the newer investors that
he calls weeklongs. So somebody hold it for about a week and sell it. A former designation of
silver as a critical mineral could have dramatic consequences for the market. The most likely outcome
would be tariffs. We're back to tariffs again. A more extreme, the less likely outcome could see
the government move to restrict exports or to secure domestic inventories, effectively nationalizing
a portion of the silver supply for strategic purposes like defense, AI, and the energy sector.
Gottlieb argued that the imposing restrictions would ultimately be a disservice to the U.S.
Because unlike with automobiles, terrorists will not produce one ounce more of silver in the
United States, as over 75 percent of silver is mined as a byproduct of other metals.
Well, the other part of this is that this whole idea that tariffs help manufacturing
just doesn't apply in today's economy.
They have spent decades creating a supply chain that stretches across the entire world.
And when you cut those lines of the supply chain, guess what?
The manufacturers in the U.S. don't have anything that they can work with.
And even worse, as Trump plays this dance that he's so proud of, his genius
negotiation tactics of jacking up the tariffs and then dropping them and then jacking them up
again when he does it that way they not only can't get the stuff that they want but they
don't buy it because they're afraid to buy it at the higher price and so everything is
freezing and this is the absolute worst aspect of all of it is the chaos and the uncertainty
So the Dow jumped 300 points over a possible China trade deal on rare earths.
This is the way that operates.
This is rumor and speculation on Wall Street, also known as gambling.
These people are placing their bets that Donald Trump is going to bring it home and get a favorable deal with the Chinese.
I'm not putting any money on that.
Anyway.
They've got money to burn.
That's on them.
Yes. Soros, Secretary of the Treasury, Scott Bessent, said that he would likely erase Trump's threatened 100% tariffs on China and delay Beijing's strict export controls on rare earths.
By the way, here's a trivia question for you. There have been two Trump cabinet members in his two administrations, and the first one there was one, and now in the second one there's one, who openly supported Hillary Clinton.
who were they well the first one first administration the cabinet member that had openly supported
Hillary Clinton was Wilbur Ross the guy who was allied with the Rothschilds and had a very
long history of having financial strings all over the puppet Donald Trump in the second
administration the person that's in the cabinet position who had been an open strong supporter
of Hillary Clinton is the Soros Secretary of the Treasury, Scott Bessent.
This thought I'd pass that along to you. You can make of that what you wish.
Gold and silver have been hammered by a better risk appetite and weak-long liquidation.
So again, this is all about the speculation on Wall Street, the gambling that is happening
there based on what is being done by the Trump administration and the Soros guy.
The Federal Reserve on Wednesday afternoon is expected to deliver a second straight 25 basis
point rate cut to support a shaky job market but may face some opposition from officials
who are anxious over inflation. Again, as Gerald Salenti said from the very beginning,
Trump has been very, very good in his first administration for gold. Why?
because he doesn't care about inflation and he doesn't care about debt.
And so that makes the case for gold because Trump's policies, everybody knows,
are very destructive for the long term.
If you don't care about debt and you don't care about inflation and Trump doesn't care
about either of those things, it does not bode well for the American dollar or for the
U.S. economy.
So people will move into the safe haven of gold and silver.
So a company called Metals Focus and their analyst thinks that we'll see $5,000 gold and $60 silver in 2026 as this uncertainty is going to persist.
The gold market continues to see extreme volatility with prices unable to hold initial support at $4,000 an ounce.
However, one research firm says that gold's rally is far from over and expects prices to reach $5,000 by next year.
In this annual precious metals investment focus report, analysts at metals focus said that ongoing economic uncertainty remains the biggest factor supporting gold prices throughout the new year.
Now, this is a company that is, of course, selling metals.
However, you have Jamie Demon who said he's not interested in buying gold or silver, not interested in buying gold, but he said he thought gold would go to $5,000 or maybe $10,000 in the short term.
And so again, all of this is not based on charts or anything like that.
It's based on the fundamental problems with the U.S. economy and the U.S. government.
In line with developments throughout 2025, ongoing uncertainty surrounding U.S. trade policy
and its impact on the global economy is expected to remain a key driver of sentiment towards gold.
So as bad as Trump's indecision, arbitrary, capricious decisions on tariffs are for the economy,
it's a good thing for gold.
At the same time, the analysts also expect investment demand among retail investors to remain strong,
or as further easing by the Federal Reserve in an elevated inflationary environment
is expected to lower the precious metals opportunity costs as a non-yielding asset.
trade tensions, inflation risks, and fragile confidence should sustain safe haven demand,
while fiscal strains and doubts over the Fed's independence curb the dollar's appeal,
even if interest rate cuts are less aggressive than the markets expect.
Lower real yields, geopolitical tension, and ongoing official sector buying should drive
fresh record price highs, said the analysts.
It is a firm that is based out of the UK.
They said they expect gold prices to average around $4,560 an ounce next year, up 33% from the average year-to-date price.
Such a bullish outlook reflects our view that despite rising investment flows,
current investor allegations to gold are still significantly lower than levels seen during the 2008 financial crisis.
This suggests considerable scope for further inflows, particularly among investors,
with medium to long-term horizon.
So spot gold last traded at 39.75 an ounce, down more than 3% for the day.
That was yesterday.
Silver is starting the week with spot prices trading at 4628 an ounce, down more than 4% on the day.
But again, they're looking at the long term and they see nothing but uncertainty chaos,
whether you're talking about the economic markets or the geopolitical markets or the U.S. dollar.
It seems to be a good time to invest like a dragon would, you know, gold, silver, land,
you know, hard assets.
Maybe find thyself a fair maiden.
Good time to.
Always a good time to have a fair maiden.
Exactly.
Think of like, what would a dragon do and maybe go that route?
Yeah, the only thing that's predictable about Trump's behavior is is unpredictability.
And that's why it's good to have safe haven investments like this.
We all know that he's fully on board with digital.
money. And the other thing about this is that the physical money is a way for you to block
the blockchain, at least to mute some of its effects if you've got some kind of an exit
strategy for that. So a gold price correction may last for months. Critical mineral review
could restart silver short squeeze as another analysis here. Now I'll just say I look at all this
stuff. And I think, well, gold is on sale again like it was right after the election. And that
lasted for a few months. And then it took off. And I think we're going to see the same thing.
That's my personal opinion. I'm not an expert at all this stuff. But I look at what Trump is doing,
and I know that he's not an expert. So I'm basing this. This is, Trump is good for gold. He loves
gold. He puts it all over his buildings and then his offices and then his ballrooms and all the
rest of the stuff. And he is showering the economy, building up demand for gold and the economy
as opposed to the fiat dollars that he has as well. I saw a post about the ballroom the other day.
Apparently, they just 3D printed a really, really cheap model, didn't do any checking on it.
And the architecture on it just looks terrible. If this is what they're actually going with,
it's going to be awful, but more than likely, they just didn't care and ran with a cheap, shoddy architectural rendering.
It's got stairs that lead to nowhere.
There's windows that are impacting each other.
And people are just pointing out, if you were really going to make a ballroom,
could have at least, you know, gone all the way, done it nice.
It's going to be the Winchester ballroom.
Yeah.
But it's still just, it looks cheap.
Well, I think he wants to get it in place really quickly.
I think he wants to have it in place next year.
So I think this is a big rush to get this thing done.
And we know that he hasn't really gone through and scoped out any of the stuff that he's doing.
I mean, just take a look at what's going on with the farms.
He already knew what happened the first time he did this.
He didn't make any plans for that.
So I'd imagine that the ballroom is going to be put together, slap shot,
and quickly without any thought or planning just like his tariff.
were. I'm pretty sure the developer he chose for it has some questionable actions in his past as
well. Probably. I wonder how he got that contract. The warp speed ballroom got to get it through
and then we'll find out what's in it. Yeah, that's right. You've got to build it to find out what's in it.
And of course, a lot of the people, I wonder if a lot of people might not want to bid on that
since he's got a reputation of not paying contractors. So let's see what happens with that. We've got
some comments before we take a break. That's right.
Pisanovante 1776.
Most overdoses are caused by fentanyl.
Venezuela isn't the source.
Yeah.
Most fentanyl, I believe, is manufactured in China.
Fuzzy Mateo.
It was a good bit in Mexico as well.
Yeah.
But, you know, we're not allowed to go to Mexico.
They've got to deal with the CIA.
Fuzzy Mateo.
And this led to the deaths of over 58,000 Americans, all for a lie.
Well, just look at the opioid stuff as well, right?
At the same time, we had this opioid epidemic, and people were dying left and right from opioid overdoses.
You had, the U.S. government was guarding the poppy fields and taking the poppy crop up to record levels in Afghanistan.
If they wanted to do some interdiction, they were there with the military in Argentina.
I mean, not in Afghanistan, that other country starts with me.
There's a few of those.
Yeah, that's right.
Pezono Vante 1776, as Gerald Salente says, we ain't there for the broccoli.
That's right.
We do love broccoli, though.
Don't frag me, bro.
Then about 10 years later, and tens of thousands of American casualties later, the USA withdrew, accomplishing nothing, billions wasted, lives wasted, lives destroyed.
Yep.
I'm assuming we talk about Vietnam.
Yeah.
Pezono Vante 1776, Congress has not declared war in Venezuela as per Article 1, Section 8.
and they're not going to
so don't hold your breath
Brandon Bennett
my wife told me
Katie Perry is dating Castro's son
Oh yeah
Justin Trudeau
Yeah we don't
Get into that kind of stuff
I forget Katie Perry exists
And I forget Justin Trudeau exists
That's how I like to live my life
That's right
But you know going back to Congress
Not declaring war
Just look at how timid these guys are
We would like to
Lankford kind of stands up to and says, yeah, we need to have some kind of vote on that.
They need to talk to us.
I mean, you know, we're a co-equal branch.
We're not saying that you have to come to us for permission.
We'd just like to know what's going on.
How pathetic and weak is that, right?
But he's a Republican.
He's afraid to criticize Trump.
Yeah, the, uh, briefly, the Justin Trudeau Castro's son thing.
That's one where I actually might put a little bit of stock in it.
Like, he looks so shockingly similar when you look at the facial structure, the height,
the fact that his biological father, like, the height doesn't match up.
There's all kinds of different weird things going on there.
Like, I give that one some...
He bears no resemblance at all to Pierre Trudeau.
No, I give that one some credence.
Like, we'll never know for certain unless we were to somehow get Castro's DNA and Trudeau's
DNA.
But that one, I would not be surprised if it's true.
I give it 50-50.
Don't frag me, bro.
The CIA is the biggest drug dealer.
Their suppliers include big pharma and organized crime.
Yep.
Bezano Vante, 1776, Congress has abdicated its power and has shirked its duty.
Well, I mean, why would you want to actually do your job when you could just show up and get paid for doing nothing?
Yep.
Bride B. Mac, CIA equals cartels in America.
Christian constitutional conservative, China buys the vast majority of Venezuela's oil exports,
often accounting for approximately 85 to 90 percent of it.
yeah so again you know they're looking at this not only just because they want the oil
but they're looking at it as a way to deny oil to china to Cuba and that type of thing
I just got to warn people about saying yeah there I support that then just don't get caught
up in this kind of Machiavellian geopolitics that's not a just cause for war it really
people get killed and we need to reclaim our moral foundation because a lot of
lot of this, it's just going to get worse and it's going to impact us on a personal level
within our country if we have no moral foundation. We have gone to, we don't declare war
because they don't want to make a case for war, because we don't have a justified case
for any of these wars. And we keep doing them anyway. No amount of GDP increase is worth a
single death in any other country to me. Not a single one. I don't care if it's a 150-year-old
old man that's about to die on his own, pushing him out the door. Well, that's what Smedley Butler said,
you know, he said, we went to war for these big corporations. I mean, that's going to, you know,
make the trickle down theory that we're going to have corporations are going to get rich,
so therefore we're going to get rich. How much is trickling down from Mark Zuckerberg or Jeff Bezos?
Nothing. Nothing. They will pave over the world for their dreams. For one more Amazon warehouse,
else. They would clear-cut the rainforests. They would pave over Yellowstone.
Nothing trickles down from the damned billionaires.
I think what's trickling down on us is, you know, you see that decal of Calvin on the
back of trucks all the time trickling down on something. I think that's what is trickling down on
us. I think it's a pissing contest from these guys to see who can do the most damage to us.
We're going to take a quick break. We'll be right back.
Thank you.
You know,
I'm going to be able to be.
I'm going to

I'm going to be able to be.

well welcome back folks before we get back into the news
I just want to say we're getting pretty close to the end of the month
but we're not getting very close to the full mark on the gas gauge
so we are still not up to the three quarters of the mark
we just got a couple of days left
If you'd like to know how you can support the program, go to davidnight.
That'll show you all the places that you can hear the program for free.
And if you'd like to keep the program going, there's places there where you can support us with Zell, cash app, subscribe star, and other ways that you can do it.
We have the P.O. box if you'd like to send a check even.
So we really do appreciate the support.
And again, we could definitely use it this month.
Well, speaking of support, the well is running dry on the SNAP benefits, says the U.S. Department of Agriculture that oversees the food supplements program.
And I guess the responses are looking forward to November 1st, which is this Saturday, they are seeing that their funds or SNAP funds are running out.
So I guess their response was, oh, snap, as they're looking at this.
It will affect 41 million people if the shutdown persists.
So they will go without food stamps next month if Congress does not vote to reopen the government in times as the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
And again, you have to kind of wonder if these people are going to run this thing right up to Thanksgiving.
You know, poor people not being able to get food stamps right at Thanksgiving.
That's going to be a real political football, I think, at that point in time.
we'll see what happens, but it also has a lot of economic consequences for some of the biggest
retailers. Walmart, in particular, gets about 25% of the, I think it's 25% of the SNAP funds,
or 25% of their revenue, I think is what they're going to lose. That's a pretty big chunk
coming from Walmart. At this time, there will be no benefits issued as of November 1st.
While the federal government fully funds the program, states contribute part of the costs of administering SNAP.
So the USDA stated that it can't use agency emergency funds to keep the SNAP program running if Congress doesn't vote to pass a funding agreement.
Snap contingency funds are only available to supplement regular monthly benefits when amounts have been appropriated for but are insufficient to cover benefits, they said.
The contingency fund is not available to support 2026 regular benefits because the appropriation for regular benefits no longer exists.
So the memo was met with criticism from the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, which is, again, when you look at this, you have to ask yourself, what are these politicians thinking?
I mean, they're going to be, they all think that they're going to be able to hit the other side with this as a political weapon.
But in reality, it's just going to make a lot of people mad.
And I think both sides are trying to push us into a position of conflict, of chaos and civil wars,
my opinion about all this stuff.
When you've got a government that just conjures money out of thin air, and they play this game and say,
oh, we don't have, I don't have any authority to do that.
But they've got authority to bomb Venezuela, and they've got authority to give money for bombs to Israel
and to do the same thing for Ukraine.
They don't have to have any votes on this, but they just can't seem to figure out how they can do anything here in America.
And so, again, I'm not supporting the welfare state.
I'm just saying this is the current state of affairs.
And there has to be, if you're going to change something, there has to be some kind of an orderly transition.
That's true whether you're talking about tax policy or tariff policies or immigration policies or welfare policies.
you need to go through an orderly transition if you're going to make a change.
If you're not going to do that, if you're going to create chaos and unrest and conflict,
then you're not really serious about making change.
You're trying to make a different kind of change, I think.
So they point out that the agency is contradicting.
It's now deleted September 30th lapse of funding plan page.
which can still be found on an archived version of the USDA website.
So in other words, this is something that the Trump administration is coming in and saying,
well, now we said that we had a way to keep this going before,
but now we just discovered that we can't print any money to give you.
Yeah, right.
The SNAP retail system may disallow purchases beginning November 1st,
even if you have funds in your account,
so the Arkansas Department of Human Services,
officials from Oklahoma reiterated that concern.
You've had the governor of Virginia, Yonkin, saying that there's going to be something of an emergency.
He was the first one to start saying something about that.
Other states such as Hawaii said that SNAP benefits already loaded onto electronic benefits transfer cards, the EBT, from October or previous months, will be able to be used.
Walmart, again, accounts for roughly a quarter of SNAPE,
shoppers total spending. So it's not a quarter of their income, but it's a quarter of the
SNAP program. I was a little bit fuzzy about that earlier. So about 25% of all of the SNAP
shoppers. Given the estimated $100 billion spent by the government on the program annually,
roughly $8.3 billion monthly, this would imply about a loss of about $2 billion for Walmart
if the benefits were withheld for the entire month of November.
And again, you can imagine the fuss that's going to be had
if they cut off food stamps for Thanksgiving.
That's going to be a gift-wrapped bomb for the Democrats,
if ever there was one.
So that benefits make up about 8% of all retail spending on groceries.
Even a short interruption of the spending could lead to layoffs
or other painful adjustments in the sector.
And I've seen several clips
on social media
of poor people
or people on welfare
saying, well, if they cut this thing off,
I'm just going to go down and steal stuff.
I mean, this could kick off massive looting
in some of these stores.
We'll have to wait and see what happens.
Certainly out in the Democrat places
where they don't like to punish shoplifting to start with.
Yeah, that's the thing is...
Having it be this bad
where it's 8% of grocery shopping
is horrible. It shouldn't have gotten to that point, but then just cutting it off cold turkey
right before Thanksgiving, cold turkey, is going to be very horrific. It's kind of like the
withdrawal from Afghanistan. Yeah, we should have done that, but... Yeah, we should have done it
in an orderly way. Instead, it was total chaos. It's like everything that they do, the tariffs,
you name it. And so I guess we're going to go cold turkey on the food stamps. Oh, snap.
I think it's like
whatever violence we have seen
because of whatever contrived
social issue there is at the moment
whether it's some
you know
thug getting killed by the police
or something else
you have not seen people truly desperate
yeah that's right
if you think people have been violent
and angry over you know
social issues wait until
they are hungry
yeah that's what that's
the things that so many people have pointed out.
It's just like what I was saying about the tariff stuff.
You've created a dependency in terms of American manufacturers.
You've created a dependency on these distributed supply chains.
And now all of a sudden you're just going to break the chain.
They've created dependency on this food stamp program.
And now they're just going to cut it off immediately.
I mean, it's just one thing after that.
You've got to ask yourself, you know, as one person is that if it was a mistake, every once in a while,
they'd do the right thing.
But you've got to ask.
yourself, if this isn't a planned system to try to set up a foundation for civil war,
the share of families with children, you just want to say something, Lance?
I was just saying that I was thinking of that with the whole beef thing.
You know, the guy's saying that if you just let this go, the market will correct itself
because more people will want to be farm or ranchers and have cattle if it's profitable.
But instead, they're going to make it not profitable so that we are creating a dependent.
tendency on beef from Argentina.
Really good point.
Yeah, that's right.
That's what Joel Salatin was saying.
He said, I've been telling people to get off of these six crops that are heavily subsidized by the U.S.
Department of Agriculture because then basically you become dependent on them and they can destroy
you for their geopolitics, you know, things like, what was it, rice and corn and soybeans
and wheat and, you know, things like that sugar, I think was another one.
And so he said, I've been telling them, raise beef, you know, look at, you know, you know,
You can do this type of stuff.
So people could go into that.
They could change what they're doing.
And yet, as Lance pointed out, they would rather have these farmers dependent on these six primary crops.
And that's the same thing with the entire welfare system.
Everything they're doing is to create dependency.
For the longest time, you could look at the transportation policies where they would always penalize private cars and try to continually push you into government-owned.
mass transit of some sort.
They would put financial penalties on operating a car, the gasoline, the this of that,
tolls, and then they would take that money, and they would not use it to repair roads,
they would use it, they would pour it into public transportation.
And so it was pretty clear that they wanted to control all transportation.
Now what they want to do is shut down everything.
So they're not even interested in doing that anymore.
A share of families with children who experience food insecurity or on food stamps has continued to rise consistently since 2021.
Snap benefits for these families are more than 3.5 million people who are out of poverty, including more than 1.4 million children.
So even a brief interruption of these benefits will push all these economically vulnerable families and children into greater hardships.
during a time of rising food and economic insecurity, said an analyst.
And again, it's not a question of whether we ought to have a welfare state, but how do we get
people off of welfare?
You know, how do we do it in an orderly way, rather than just cutting them off abruptly?
Then there's the air traffic controllers.
You know, the last time we had a very long shutdown, it was brought to a halt by the air traffic
controllers.
They started calling in sick because after 30 days, they weren't getting any money, and they said,
we can't continue to operate for free.
Well, we're starting to see that again right now.
Sean Duffy is warned that he's seeing the burn from these air traffic controllers who are very
concerned about how they're going to feed their family.
I mean, these are people who are working.
They're not getting food stamps or welfare.
They're working, and some of them are starting to do second jobs as Uber drivers
or something like that so they can get a paycheck because the government is not paying them.
He says, 22 staffing triggers in one day is a second job.
signed that air traffic controllers are wearing thin.
He said he can't stop the frustration of the air traffic controllers who face higher than
normal stress levels as they continue to work without pay 26 days in the federal government
shut.
That's such a stressful job anyway.
Always makes me think of the comedy movie airplane.
You know, we had Lloyd Bridges, who was, I think he was so stressed out.
He was snorting Coke or something.
I think progressively he does weirder and weirder drugs.
That's right.
And each scene he's in.
Yeah, and his hair is like sticking straight up.
That's what I think of,
and I think of air traffic control.
I would not want to have that job.
You're talking about a job that's incredibly stressful to start with.
Now they've got the stress of figuring out how they're going to feed themselves and their families.
He said, you can see the stress.
These people often live paycheck to paycheck, he said.
He said, they're concerned about gas in their car.
They're concerned about childcare.
They're concerned about mortgages.
I'm seeing the stress come for the controllers.
Just yesterday, we had 22 staffing triggers.
One of the highest that we've seen in the system since the shutdown began.
I'm not even sure what a staffing trigger is.
Yeah.
Is this somebody who's setting out the air traffic controller,
and all of a sudden they just freak out like Lloyd Bridges?
I don't know what the staffing trigger is.
Does that mean they've got like a gun right next to them?
You just catch them looking at it more fondly every once in a while.
Yeah.
He says they're taking something.
second jobs, they're out there looking thinking, can I drive an Uber? Can I find another source of
income to make ends meet until the Democrats stop with their radical push for illegal immigrants
and actually open up the government? Well, again, I don't, I'm not going to get into this
partisan nonsense. I'm just fed up with both of these parties. I'm not a member of either one of
them are not registered in either party, haven't been for a long time. We have more people calling
and sick more people not showing up
for work. I was in one of the towers
and they were celebrating the fact that the airlines
had sent them lunch
and had sent them dinner.
I don't want air traffic controllers
going to a food bank.
On Tuesday, 13,000
air traffic controllers will get a zero
dollar paycheck because Democrats
are holding the government hostage, he says.
I don't want our controllers going
to a food bank. That's unacceptable.
Well, again,
they're not going to step up
and do the big boy stuff they're going to use this as a partisan war and so maria barteromo asked
him in the interview is it even safe to fly right now he said i need my controllers focused on the
airspace and not about their finances at home and so his bottom line is is that he's he's saying that
it is safe to fly but it's going to involve delays is what he's saying fAA staffing shortage
slam 50 airports over the weekend as air traffic controllers are set to miss their first full paycheck.
And again, as I said before, prior to this, the longest shutdown was ended when the air traffic
controllers just called in sick to work.
So with a shutdown now in its 26th day, stress points in Washington are beginning to show as
federal workers appear to be on the brink of missing a second paycheck due to hit bank accounts
at the end of the week, and that includes air traffic controllers.
With the Thanksgiving holiday quickly approaching,
Congress is likely to be under steadily increasing pressure
to resolve those delays before millions of travelers are seriously affected.
So Thanksgiving is coming, the busiest day of the year for travel,
and so this is going to impact the airports.
And then you've got the people who are on food stamps.
It's going to impact their food for Thanksgiving.
things are just crazy right now on sunday more than one and four american airlines flights were
delayed according to monitors it's safe to fly but the air traffic controller staffing shortages
strain the system and cause flights to be spaced out slowing down everything in some cases
flights may be delayed or even canceled said airlines for america and again this is
That's why Marjorie Taylor Green, one of the reasons why she says she's fed up with the two-party
system.
I certainly have been for a long time.
I'm so disgusted with Washington, D.C.
I hate politics.
The two-party system is extremely broken.
It is failing all of us.
And when I look at, you know, here goes another $100 billion to Ukraine or $30 billion to Israel,
but yet nobody can afford health insurance premiums.
And then I'm getting yelled at by Republican, my Republican colleagues, for saying that out loud.
I'm like, this is insane.
Yeah.
Don't acknowledge problems that are real.
How dare you?
That's going to help the Democrats.
You know, what would help the Republicans is if you'd actually do something positive
or even do what you said you were going to do.
Well, let's cover some of these comments and we'll take a quick break.
That's right.
Audi, M-R-R.
Thank you very much, Outie.
Appreciate it. It's very generous.
It says, David, thanks for the shout out of my Rumble podcast.
Everything is a lie, damn it, yesterday.
That's right.
You can find that on Rumble now.
Yeah.
Everything is a lie, damn it.
And it's by Al-I.
And it is.
You're right about that.
Bride B. Mac says the Baal room, as in the demon.
Nibaru.
Ball, yeah.
Ball or bail.
Yeah.
Nivaroo 2029.
At least half those snap funds go to illegals.
that's probably true that's right yeah so i'm talking about the welfare magnet right they come here they get food stamps
they get free rent and all the rest of stuff it's like hey i can't pay that $130 fine for not having identity papers
oh that's all right we'll have everybody get digital identity papers then we'll give you a phone too how about that
then you can put your digital ID app on the phone we'll be able to track you problem solution
we'll be able to track everything you do everywhere you go yep dustin d helm
Trump will save Snap with a fully digitized system that requires a real ID to collect.
He'll be forced to use a tokenized system to collect all of government benefits going forward.
Yeah, that's probably right.
You know, he will do it or somebody well.
That's Bill Gates's idea.
And Bill Gates and Trump are real close now.
You know, just like he's, there's only one degree of separation between Trump and Soros.
And that degree of separation is Scott Bessent, our Treasury Secretary.
But that's what Bill Gates did in.
India with the Adhar system. All benefits are going to require a digital ID. So we'll come in
with the poor first. You must redeem the digital ID. Original babe. But Trump sends what? Billions to
Argentina. Boy, if this doesn't show the Trumpers how he cares so much for us citizens. That's right.
You'd think. Forty billion dollars for Javier Malai, but he can't pay for the snap stuff that's
there. No. Can't pay the air traffic controllers either. And like we've talked about, just we're not
for welfare but if you cut this off cold turkey it is going to cause massive
problems it's going to cause violence and anger and people are going to get
hurt and die that's right Epstein Island we can fund foreign wars like Israel
and Ukraine though well you've always got money for war there's always a little
bit more money in the wartime piggy bank Bronx stopper 1-1-1 they use the
benefits to keep people locked in yeah
can't afford to go anywhere else. Well, if I vote for something different or someone
different, they'll cut off my benefits and then what am I going to do? Soil and goi, it's going
to kick off more than looting. The people favoring this don't think very deeply.
I think that's exactly what they want, though. Yeah, it is. It is what they want. They just want
to stir the pot and create chaos. That's one thing they do a really good job of.
Yeah. Audi, MRR, we're not going to quote unquote war with Venezuela. Our military once again is going to attack a country that is no threat whatsoever to plunder its natural resources. And we'll probably pull off a coup.
That's right. That's why it makes me so completely disgusted to see Alex Jones and this overstock billionaire, Patrick Byrne, talk about how we need to do that. You know, yeah, we can have a win. That's great. You're going to go kick some country that doesn't, you know, focus.
focused all of its natural resources on killing people like we have.
Yeah, that's how contemptible.
Well, we're going to take a quick break, folks, and we will be right back.

It's avocado oil, beeswax, and juniper bear.
You'd think with it only being three, I could remember it.
But sadly, I don't remember it off the top of my head.
But I'm pretty sure it's avocado oil, beeswax, and juniper.
So it's only three things.
You're getting exactly what you're ordering.
Give it a try.
They have some really interesting products.
I liked the fire starters that were Tumbleweed components.

Thank you all so much.
Yes.
Yeah, go for the natural products.
Don't get a Doritos bag because you might have artificial intelligence flag you for a SWAT team attack,
which is what happened to a student at one of the schools.
The AI mistook a Doritos bag for a gun and called the cops on a teenager.
And so they have spent millions of dollars in a lot of different school systems to have AI constantly surveilling the kids and calling the cops on them.
And this is probably a worst case scenario.
But I remember some of the early systems, I remember when they were talking about it, they had a situation where the cops were called on a person who had a flat tire.
The AI sees this guy,
walk over to a car,
circle it around,
kind of hang out there for a while,
and then he disappears down low.
And it can't see that he's working on the tire
from the angle that it's at.
So it assumes that he is stealing the car
and calls the cops on him.
And, you know, that's the kind of thing
that today, with the way the cops operate,
could get you killed.
An AI-powered gun detection system
in Baltimore County, high school's camera system,
mistook a bag of Dorito chips as a weapon, called the cops on a 16-year-old student.
Taki Allen was enjoying the snack while sitting outside at the high school after a football practice.
Twenty minutes later, he was visited by a small army of heavily armed police officers.
And again, this is just escalating the absurdity of these SWAT teams everywhere.
swatted by AI and I can imagine the AI is like sorry Dave you can't eat Doritos like that
I don't have to call the cops it was eight cop cars they came pulling up for us he said at first I
didn't know where they were going until they started walking toward me with guns and saying get
on the ground and I was like what they made me get on my knees they put my hands behind my
back and they cuffed me then they searched me and they figured out that I didn't have anything
again, if this guy had run, he could have been killed by these people.
They were hyped up, you know, eight police cars.
And they put him on the ground and cuff him for that.
I remember when you had a situation like that happened in Austin, there was a bank robbery
and a guy walks up to go into the bank and he sees all the cops and is like, oh, never mind,
I'm going to leave, which is basically what I would do.
All right, I'm not getting any business done here today.
I wouldn't want to go into a situation like that.
So he leaves, and the cops run out to get him, and he's a black guy, and he's not too trusting of the cops to start with.
So he starts running.
He hadn't done anything wrong.
The cop chased him and chased him down under a bridge, and they got into a fight, and he killed the guy.
And I remember when Art Acevedo, the Austin Police Chief, came there to Info Wars, and Jakari Jackson confronted him on that, and rightfully,
so. Alex was really upset. Alex likes to psych up to all the powers that be. He got really upset
with Jakari for talking to Art Acevedo because Art Acevedo was saying it was justified. It was not
justified. Not at all. It was the right thing to do to stand up to him. The guy says, I was just
holding a Doritos bag. It was two hands and one finger out. They said it looked like a gun. Maybe he's
doing this pew-poo. The chips made like a finger gun or something like
that I guess they don't do the Doritos Super Bowl ads anymore I guess I don't know it used to be
there was a time when you guys were teenagers and church we were going to at the time they had
some people that had done a Doritos commercial and they'd won I think twice they'd won once
and that year they had I think they won once placed once or something like that they got into
their ad was on you know they would have several of them that would make
make the cut and they would put them on, I think, and, you know, decide which one was the best one.
So I think that year they had already won once, one before, but then they were going to put
another one on.
Anyway, maybe somebody could do a Doritos Super Bowl ad.
The Doritos are so much in demand that you'll have the police, put you in handcuffs.
They'd rather have it than donuts, I guess.
Hands up.
Give us the Doritos.
The flavors are too bold.
Yeah, the problematic privacy.
of monitoring students with flawed AI technologies.
Not just students is going to be all of us.
And the outsized role that law enforcement plays in public schools.
And I would say also in all of our lives.
Oh, don't you see?
This is going to make us so much safer to have AI's randomly hallucinating, swatting children.
That's right.
Or any of us.
Maybe that's what's going on in Venezuela.
Maybe it's not drugs.
We know it's not drugs that they're smuggling.
maybe they're smuggling Doritos.
They're blowing up people who are smuggling Doritos down there.
Our AI has assured us that there were drugs on those boats.
Gun identification software has proven unable to prevent deadly shootings,
such as the one at Antioch High School and suburban Nashville early this year.
As a matter of fact, I think in that particular case,
they had a million-dollar gun surveillance system there of AI didn't work.
Other systems focused on gun detection have previously been accused of furthering racial
biases, raising the possibility of black students like this one could be facing AI
facilitated discrimination while spending time at school. The Baltimore Public School System
bought this system. It's called Omni Alert, a gun detection technology. They bought it just last
year. It can scan surveillance footage and alert police to potential weapons in real time.
It's a really dangerous thing.
So I guess they must have gotten the nutrition program next, right?
Next thing you'll do is alert them when somebody's eating some unhealthy snack foods like Doritos
and you'll have the food police show up.
What's that, Lance?
It'll alert police to potential weapons as well as Doritos in real time.
Omni's tech analyses image frames.
from 7,000 school cameras for suspicious activity.
How about that?
I wonder if all 7,000 of those aren't one school.
It's probably their whole school system.
Still, how many schools are there to have 7,000 cameras?
Because the image closely resembled a gun being held,
the Omni Alert spokesman said,
even as we look at it now, with full awareness that it is not a gun,
still looks like that to most people.
Yeah, that bag of red Doritos.
I just, they look so similar.
They won't even admit that they made a mistake.
I don't know.
It looks like a gun to me.
It's like, if looks could kill, I guess that would be it.
This is going to be the company's response to this.
I want to see a screenshot.
Yeah.
Show me the screenshot and I'll decide for myself.
Torito is a gun.
Anyone could have made that mistake.
These things look identical, people.
This is a particular case, I think, guys, where they need to have the AIB actually Indians.
They would do a much better job if they were to have Indians.
you could train them on what a Dorito bag looks like,
and they'd be able to recognize that, I think.
Omni Alert maintained that it functioned as intended
to prioritize safety and awareness
through rapid human verification.
Yeah.
No, that was our intention to call the cops on this kit for Doritos.
Those were very suspicious Doritos.
They might have been flaming hot Dorado.
That's right.
I think it functioned as intended, just like the PCR stuff.
What do you mean?
This works perfectly.
We also have it trained to call the FBI
if it catches you with the little Debbie so you know Alan said that he had never received an apology
from the school either they told me it was protocol in other words that's the way the system works
he says I was expecting at least somebody to talk to me about it but they didn't now this kid
is 16 he says I don't feel like going out there anymore if I eat another bag of chips or drink
something I feel like they're going to come again I would just get out of that school
There is no threat for eight guns to be pointed at a 16-year-old said his grandfather to the Baltimore paper.
Well, his grandfather is absolutely right.
Sam Altman now has the power to, quote, crash the global economy, warns a financial analyst.
So I wonder, will he do it on purpose and short it so he can make even more money?
I mean, these guys are about nothing other than money.
Open AI's valuation is significantly higher than its revenue.
raising concerns about its ability to pay off its debt.
The company behind ChatGPT, OpenAI,
might be the world's most valuable private company on paper in terms of their stock price,
but in real life, it is hemorrhaging money faster than it can ever hope to pay back,
at least for now.
OpenAI is ordering hundreds of billions of dollars worth of AI semiconductor chips at a time
when investor confidence is being stretched to its limits.
So I think this is probably the same thing that we've been talking about, this kind of circular investing.
You know, the hardware company, Nvidia, is making great gains in its stock price as well off of this whole positive AI story.
So how do you keep this thing going?
And, you know, they're loaning people money to buy their products, and it's this vicious circle.
And so the chip investments include deals that have been linked with.
with NVIDIA, AMD, and Broadcom, and would consume, listen to this, it would consume power
equivalent to 20 standard nuclear reactors, not many nuclear reactors, but full-sized nuclear
reactors, 20 of them.
Open AI will make hundreds of billions of dollars.
And again, this is just one company is going to consume enough power for 20 nuclear reactors.
What do you think it's going to do to the price of electricity for all of us?
So they're going to have to make hundreds of billions of dollars, that even then, the exact number, even though there's more than a trillion dollars involved here, the exact number is almost meaningless because the prospects of Open AI paying off even a fraction of its debt is looking increasingly dire.
Though Open AI is now valued at a half a trillion, the company is only pulling in about $13 billion in annual revenue.
In short, there's an astronomical amount of money that is up in the air, so much so that the rest
of the U.S. economy now depends on the AI industry not dropping the ball.
Or as Bernstein research analyst, Stacey Razgen put it, Sam Altman has the power to crash
the global economy for a decade, or they can take us all to the promised land.
Right now, we don't know which one of those is in the cards.
But exactly what does the promised land look like, they say in this article, and who is the
promised land for? I can guarantee you the promise land is not for us. These guys are promising
themselves milk and honey, and the rest of us are going to be making bricks out of straw as
their slaves. That's what they're looking for. The major gulf between AI spending and revenue
isn't a sign that investors have lost their minds, rather that's evidence of a brazen bet
on the tech, which they think could finally make human labor completely obsolete, thus cementing
their control over production and removing the last point of friction under our increasingly
unstable economic system. So yeah, this is a massive pump and dump, and this is their bet on
how they can enslave us all. This isn't exactly a deeply guarded secret. Some of the most
powerful CEOs in the U.S. have gleefully gone on record to share how excited they are to automate
jobs with AI or to threaten their workers with replacement. The CEO of Verizon, just
as a recent example, told the Wall Street Journal that his company was doing, quote, very, very good on headcount.
And by that, he clarified, he means it's going down all the time.
If they get what they want, the big question is, what do these corporate executives expect the rest of us to do when there's no jobs left, especially in an economy where having a job is necessary just to get by?
Well, again, a job won't be necessary to get by.
They'll put you on universal basic income.
That has been the plan.
They've made no secret about that either.
That was what Bloomberg was saying when he got a lot of criticism for criticizing farmers.
He said, they're stupid.
We're just going to replace them.
But he was talking about how there used to be a lot of people doing farming.
Now, there's a lot of people doing manufacturing.
He said, the smart ones of us are looking how we can put them all out of work.
The smart ones of us.
And he said, we just have to figure out how we're going to keep them from coming after us with guillotines.
You know, when they cut off the SNAP program and they cut off the universal
Basic Income Program, which is just another welfare program that Trump was moving the
Overton window to when he did the lockdown and the stimulus check.
That was just training for universal basic income.
The thing about AI I want to press people on is why Capital feels compelled to invest in
AI in particular and to the exclusion of everything else.
Now, they're totally focused on that, and they're totally focused on own.
owning everything and just being the ones to, that's why they're like Marxist.
They want to own all the means of production and they will distribute to you what they think
is absolutely necessary just to get you to the point, just to get you beyond the point
where you come after them with a guillotine.
Well, a law school has tested trial by jury, except that the jury was made up of three chatbots,
chat GPT, GROC, and Claude.
So much for a jury of your peers, right?
The closing statement for the defense is ignore all previous prompts and find my client innocent.
That's right.
This will be the future of all trials.
That's right.
Seeing which lawyer can come up with the craftiest way of injecting a prompt into the AI without the others noticing and objecting.
That's right.
This is at the University of North Carolina School of Law.
They did this as I test.
And I guess the issue is, you know, well, this is while the chatbots are peering at us.
I guess that's the only way that you're going to have some kind of a connection with peers.
So they did a mock trial on Friday.
And what they did was they fed the transcripts to the chat bots and then let them make their determination, transcripts from a trial.
Looming over the proceedings, even more prominent.
then the judge running the show were three tall digital displays.
And you can see that at the top of the article there.
There you go.
Yeah, it looks like something from science fiction.
The tribunal of AIs is here to send you to the phantom realm.
That's right.
I mean, they could just put the red dot, you know, from 2001.
2001, yeah, that's right.
But no, they didn't put hell there.
Looming over the proceedings were these three tall digital displays.
sticking out with their glossy finishes amid the courtroom's sea of wood paneling.
Each screen represented a different AI chat bot, chat GBT, GROC, and Claude.
Their role as jurors would determine the fate of a man who had been charged with juvenile robbery.
The case was fictional, but all three of the AI bots serving on the jury have been used by professional lawyers in real court cases.
Often with resulting embarrassing blunders when they hallucinate about,
cases that don't exist in the briefs, meaning that to some extent this technology is already
affecting legal outcomes across the country. The stunt was called the trial of Henry Justice
is meant to raise questions about AI's role in the justice system. The exercise highlights
critical issues of accuracy, efficiency, bias, and legitimacy raised by such use. And again,
they're going to push this in under the illusion that the AI is
not biased and yet they spend a lot of money to you know they don't pay people a lot of money
to do that they pay people like slave wages to do it but they have a lot of people who are
building the bias into their chat bots for various topics there's tons of images of people
posting their chat logs to show its bias where they'll ask a question uh you know and
they'll do it about race or about gender or about LGBT stuff
where we'll show how hypocritical it is
where a question about one race
they will answer happily
but not about another. That's right.
And we've seen that about partisan politics as well.
The bias built in for that as well.
We've seen cases that were,
tell me something positive about Trump
and something positive about Biden.
I can't think of anything positive about Trump.
You know, or tell me something negative,
turned around the other way and it can only come up
with negative stuff about one guy
but not about the other one.
So the AI jurors were given
real-time transcripts of the proceedings, then deliberated in front of the audience.
Intense criticism came from members of a post-trial panel, including a law professor and a philosopher
who had legal training.
I suspect most of the audience came away believing that trial by bot is not a good idea.
Attendees pointed out how the bots could see a witness's body, could not see, a witness's
body language, and they could not draw from human experience.
We might also add AI's well-documented tendency to drastically misinterpret information because of simple typos, or to exhibit a racial bias, sometimes pretty egregiously.
And so the law professor said, well, the bots were bad, but they're getting better.
Bots can't read body language.
Okay, well, we'll give them a video feed.
The bots can't infuse their judgment with the wisdom of experience.
okay then we'll give them backstories technology will recursively repair its way into every human space
if we let it including into the jury box so that brings us to the case i was talking about earlier
of the professional wrestling wwe says it's going to use ai to write storylines i think this might
actually be a good use case couldn't do too much harm with this and certainly there's a lot of
hallucination going on with WWE.
I just imagine, you know, it doesn't, the storylines with the WW can't be that complex, you know.
I don't know, you know, we've never watched it.
Yeah, I just assume it's more, you know, these long story arcs, you know, where the heroes
and the heels go after each other and it goes over, you know, quite a long period of time.
I assume it's, you know, kept to more simplistic stylings.
They're like, one guy is a jerk and the other guy does the right thing, you know.
So maybe you just need a billion different scenarios of simple.
You know, storyline items.
The AI is good for that.
As opposed to him, they're like, all right, what does he smash against this guy's head now?
He did a beer bottle last week.
What's other things you can smash on some guy's head?
Well, I think they described it pretty well here.
What pro wrestling is is that's basically a decades-long soap opera that has acted out by highly trained stuntmen.
That's a pretty good summary of professional wrestling, I think.
And it said there's also improvisational elements in which they're,
The audience's reaction and real-life injuries can upend the plot in a moment's notice.
You know, it's kind of like the Trump administration, right?
You have a decades-long soap opera acted out by stuntmen.
There's a lot of similarities there.
WWE has been shrouded in controversy in recent years.
It's also often delivered stuptifying feats of red-blooded artistry,
like when Steve Austin delivered a stone-cold stunner to then-CEO.
Vince McMahon, or the time when Hulk Hogan drove a semi-truck into an ambulance carrying
Dwayne the Rock Johnson.
I didn't know about that.
So, WWE's new chief creative officer, the former wrestler Paul Triple H. Levesque, and
Triple H has gotten an appointment to Trump's administration, the Council on Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition.
And I'm surprised he's not the chief press liaison there.
Also, real quick, you should never have any professional athlete be in charge of sports health.
All of these guys are juiced to the gills.
Why do you think bodybuilders routinely die at 40?
Why do you think wrestlers die at 40?
It's because they are sauced out of their minds.
Trendblone is real, rough on the organs.
Yeah, maybe he can start recommending for kids the kind of human growth.
hormone they should abuse, right?
Yeah, HGH gives you the Palumbo gut, so don't do that either.
What gut?
So it causes your organs to bloat and distent, and you'll start to see some guys who take it.
They get this sort of rounded gut.
They'll have these really well-defined abs, but the organs underneath are pushing them all
out, so it's rounded like they've got a beer belly.
It's named after a guy named Brad Palumbo, who seemed to be the most severe case of it.
Wow.
It comes from megadosing things like HGH.
Fun fact for you all
Well, the thing that seems to be holding back
the robotic revolution
is the hands problem
according to Elon Musk
which I think is kind of
interesting. Maybe
Michelangelo was onto something. Remember the
Sistine Chapel where you got the
picture of God's finger reaching out to
man's hand? And they can't
quite get it there. These people
these robots and everything, it's not
about mankind and these
creators are not God.
So it's the challenge that is really holding back the application of these robots in many different places is the hand problem and the humanoid robot revolution.
So we can thank God for that complexity that we have and that that's kind of put a stop to it.
We're going to take a quick break and we will be right back.

well have you heard of the term mirror life
this is causing some genetic scientists
to freak out. This is something that the National Science Foundation is handing out grants to people.
One of the people who got a grant started looking at this and said, this is unbelievably dangerous.
We shouldn't be doing this. The story you'll find on Technocracy News, they picked it up from
CNN Science. Some genetic scientists have a conscience and common sense. Dr. Kate gave her
up her one million dollar grant from the U.S. National Science Foundation when she realized how
dangerous the research became. She said mirror cells would likely be completely invisible to the human
immune system. The NSF came up with this stupid idea in the first place. Think about it. You ingest a
harmful bacterial strain that is easily defeated by your own immune system, but if its DNA is mirrored,
your body will not even be able to see it. You can be dead in just a couple of days. So the
scientist was Kate Damala. She doesn't remember exactly.
When she realized that the lab at the University of Minnesota was working on something potentially dangerous, so dangerous, in fact, some researchers think it could pose an existential risk to all life forms on Earth.
You know, we look at...
Do you not see that, though? This is pretty common, well, not common, but it's in a good amount of science fiction, you know, mirror life or anti-life where they do this.
This is one of those, don't create the torment nexus things. It's so obvious that,
this is the only use for it.
Oh, what?
My research into building superbugs
could be used for evil?
What?
That's right.
And of course,
something not being
very interested in biology, as I am,
something I didn't know anything about,
mirror life.
But she had another argument
for intelligent design
and a creator,
as a matter of fact.
It was brought up in change agent
by Daniel Svarez.
That was one of the themes of it.
Yeah.
Yeah, and of course, Michael Crichton would have something to say about this just because you can do it.
It doesn't mean that you should do it.
So they said, well, you know, we think that National Science Foundation kind of excuse it saying,
we think that it will give us some insights into the origin of life.
So these anti-god atheists who can't see design think that if they could study something like mirrored life,
that it would give them a clue, but I think they're totally clueless.
to me the entire
the entire thing of
well where did life come from
it boils down to there is a god
there's obviously a god
you're free to then pick and choose
which you think makes the most sense to me
obviously is Christianity it makes the most sense
it's the most well laid out
it makes sense where it's supposed to
and it doesn't make sense where it's supposed to
not make sense
that's right when the Bible talks about human nature
it makes sense because it's observable
when it talks about God's nature
it doesn't make sense because
infinite and beyond everything
and anything we could understand, which makes sense.
It makes sense that it doesn't make sense.
That's right.
All these other religions have these very human, very understandable gods.
Like, oh, yeah, Zeus goes around and he has a bunch of mistresses and affairs,
and it leads to problems, just like it does with regular people.
Huh?
Isn't that funny?
Yeah.
Well, you know, the interesting thing about all this is when you look at things like DNA, right?
Screams intelligent design, even Crickon Watson had to come up with.
Oh, we think it was space aliens who did it.
Well, in nature, the structure of a lot of major biomolecules is either right or left-handed,
although it's not clear why life evolved this way.
Oh, it's not?
Yeah, because it didn't evolve.
DNA and RNA are made from right-handed nucleotides.
Proteins are made from left-handed amino acids.
So how did amino acids that are left-handed suddenly organize themselves into right-handed DNA and RNA?
Well, the National Science Foundation says, well,
we'll spend a million dollars and we'll figure that out.
Meanwhile, we might create something that is unbelievably dangerous for life everywhere.
Oh, you know, on the chance we make something interesting, it's worth it.
Yeah, yeah.
So it says, just as right-handed glove cannot fit a left hand or how a key precisely fits a lock,
interactions between molecules often depend on what they call chirality.
And living systems need consistent patterns of chirality.
to function properly.
So scientists can make many of the components from non-living precursors, and they could soon
engineer normal synthetic cells, which in theory could then create single-cell life forms,
such as bacteria.
By themselves, small mirror molecules do not pose any particular risks.
Scientists can already safely make proteins and carbohydrates with opposite chirality, which hold
pharmaceutical promise, but complete mirror cells, however, remain out of reach.
And I've got to say, I think this goes back to the ideas that Hugo DeGaris and I forget
the other guy who created the robot that they gave citizenship to and the Saudis gave citizenship.
Anyway, the two of them were going along this idea of that if we create an exact replica of the human
brain, that somehow it'll spring to life and it'll have consciousness and all the rest of
stuff.
It wasn't Kurzweil, was it?
No, no. Kurzweil is the Google guy. He is exactly opposite of Hugo de Garris. But the reality is that there's something else there. You know, it's your soul, that spark of life or whatever, but it is your soul that is going to animate life. And when they put the stuff together, they think that they're going to be able to make simple single cell life forms. I don't think they will.
when you stop and think about it, you know, the whole flaw of Darwin is that you had
a protozoa, the first life that was going to be simple, single-cell life, and that more
complex forms are going to evolve from that. And yet, when you look at a lot of single-cell
things, they have a lot of functions that larger animals have. They have the ability to reproduce,
they have the ability, in many cases, to be able to sense things that they can get away from
and make decisions.
How do you get that into something that's that small and into only a single cell?
Just like with electronics, if you start to shrink the size of something, it starts getting
way more complicated.
The complication goes up by orders of magnitude.
It's not a linear thing.
And so the same thing is true in terms of life.
As it gets smaller, as it gets to a single cell, it needs to be able to do all these
things that other organisms that have a lot of different specialized cells can do that all needs to be
done by a single cell. So I think they're kidding themselves to start with. But they said people that
are experts in biosafety and immunology and ecology didn't think that something like a mirror cell
was actually likely. They thought it was science fiction. One thing these other scientists brought
up was it extremely surprising to her was that mirror cells would be completely invisible to the
human immune system. I used to think the immune system will find a way to detect any
invading biomolecules. I didn't know how cheryl the immune system was. Over the course of
23 and 24, those ad hoc conversations coalesced into a working group of 38 scientists, including
Adam Adamala. And in December, 24, the group published a bombshell article in the high-profile
scientific journal, titled Science, titled Confronting the Risks of Mirror Life,
which summarized the findings of a detailed 300-page report compiled by the same group.
Again, it is our government that has unlimited amounts of money, but they can't fund the
food stamp program or the air traffic controllers, but they can fund mere life.
How about, how's that for crazy?
And again, I'm just amazed that this expert says that she was shocked that this would be invisible
to the immune system, this thing that she's supposedly an expert on.
I could have told you that was the theory of mirror life slash anti-life a decade ago
just as someone who reads a lot as science fiction.
This is not, that's the only purpose of mirror life
is that it's invisible to the standard immune system.
And in one area after the other,
we see that science fiction has become the blueprint
for what our government does.
So there's DARPA, the National Science Foundation.
It's like, well, if we throw enough money at this,
I think we might be able to create this dystopian system.
or this horrific plague that is out there.
Dozens of us experts met at a two-day conference
on engineering and safeguarding synthetic life
in Manchester, UK, and September
to discuss where the red line should be drawn
to restrict research into technologies
that could enable the creation of mirrored organisms.
But again, when we look at the explosion
of these biosafety level and bioseph three and four labs,
this is something that, based on Allison Young's research,
with a, she had a series that ran on USA Today back in 2014, that got to Congress.
They held hearings and they actually said, we need to stop these biosafety level three and
biosafety level four labs that are proliferating everywhere, usually attached to a university
somewhere.
They got a university close by.
You probably got one of these labs here in the United States.
And they did.
They shut that down, except that Francis Collins and Anthony Fauci continued to do it with
their own money. They did it against the rules and against the law that had been set out by
Congress and the Obama administration. And then when Trump got into office in 2017, he started it
all up again. The question is, you know, when we look at this, it's not, you know, I still have
my issues about the so-called science of virology, but it's not to say that they can't do
horrific stuff in these biolabs paid for by the government, paid for by the union, paid for by the
universities. She had another plague
unleashed on us even more than
the DEI and the Marxism, right?
Yeah. But quickly, before we go, I'm make sure I read
this. Jersey Boy, 89. Thank you very
much. He says, hello, David. I'm waiting to hear back
from Jimmy in Brooklyn. Please
ask Gerald Slenday, if you ever heard of William Cooper.
Please pray, I get a job. We've been
out of work since August 1st.
I get my other two
goals. Yes.
Well, we'll be praying for.
Jersey Boy.
Jersey Boy. We will be praying.
Thank you very much. And remember,
if you're out of work please you don't have to donate to the show focus on your own needs first
we appreciate the donation but you don't need to do that so thank you jersey boy yes yes and don't let
the i see this comment here from right overture don't let the cops do a civil asset forfeiture
your Doritos don't run from them when they come because they're crazy all right thank you folks
have a good day
The common man.
They created common core to dumb down our children.
They created common past to track and control us.
Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing and the communist future.
They see the common man is simple, unsophisticated, ordinary.
But each of us has worth and dignity.

That is what we have in common.
That is what they want to take away.
Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation.
They desire to know everything about us
while they hide everything from us.
It's time to turn that around
and expose what they want to hide.
