As an American, I honor thy founding fathers, beginning with George Washington, at his farewell addressed, no foreign entanglements.
And then you listen to Franklin and Adams, Jefferson, and Madison, no foreign entanglements.
And the world is a war back then.
The Middle East policy in the United States has been nothing but disaster after disaster.
Don't give me the baloney that you're making me safer by going in other countries, destroying the joint, and then say,
oh, I wonder why they hate us.
Anybody ever hear of, do what to others, do what to you?
I love these guys to talk about protecting young born and protecting our children while they're killing people.
All over the world.
Who made up this thing about the United States advancing democracy
when they're robbing us of all our rights over here?
And this whole insanity that we have to continually be in a state of war
is just that.
There's no reason for it.
No foreign entanglements.
All right.
And joining us now is Gerald Salentie, who's done everything he can to try to occupy peace
and they had a large rally last week in Kingston, New York.
And I want to talk to Gerald about that.
And, of course, every day is one thing after the other.
I was just saying during the break to Travis, I said, you know, there's that movie out there that I have no interest in seeing because it's a hard left approach to this one battle after the other.
And I said, I saw that title.
And I thought, that's what it is with Trump.
It's one battle, one war after the other.
It's like he can't make up his mind which one he wants to do first.
He's trying to start wars everywhere, even within the United States.
Thank you for joining us, Gerald.
Trendsjournal.com.
Thank you.
Thank you so much for having me on.
The rally was great, but I have to tell you,
it was the smallest turnout in 11 years.
Really?
Wow.
And again, we had Scott Ritter, Judge Napolitano,
Dennis Kucinich,
Roger Waters doing a special, you know, broadcast.
On and on.
Joe Lurie, Ray McGovern, Garland Nixon,
a whole bunch of top top people.
And the average age looked like an old age home.
I'd say the average age is about 60 years old.
No young people.
The problem is everybody wants war.
It's not just the politicians.
I mean, the people lost their guts.
They're not fighters.
You know, we always.
we are the politicians
of the puppeteers and
wear the puppets. Yeah, I agree.
Once upon a time, there used to be a thing
called we the people. No, no.
It's me the politician, not you the people.
Once upon a time, there was a thing called public servants.
No, no, I'm the politician, you're the servant.
Yeah, yeah.
Remember, put on this mask.
Yep.
Stand 60 to pot.
When you go to a restaurant, you're better
wear that mask. When you sit down, you can take it off because COVID does not go to table
height. And it knows when you're eating, so it won't bother you. All right? That's right. I mean,
look at the crap that they pushed out there and the masses swallowed it. They called anybody
that was against that stupid crap, a conspiracy theorist.
Yes. Remember? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, I remember.
You got blacklisted on and on and on and on. When you put the facts down,
When you put the facts down that this is, the people are dying of COVID,
had 2.6 preexisting comorbidities.
Oh, Italy was the first country to lock down.
What was the average age of people that died?
81 years old.
Yeah, that's right.
Oh, when did it come to America?
Where did it land?
Everybody doesn't remember Kirkland, Washington.
Where the hell is Kirkland, Washington, and what the hell do I care?
Why?
It's an old age home.
Wait a minute
You mean COVID hit an old age song
Where the people are dying over there
Yeah
Yeah but all you kids
Can't go to school anymore
Remember the stupid little cartoons
With kids playing in little tents
With playing the instruments
Yeah
Oh now let's just go to the facts
74 million one to 17 year olds in America
Look up the data
The CDC
stop putting the data out in July of 2023, from 2020 to 2023, at a 74 million, less than
2,000 died of COVID.
Oh, according to the CDC, 61% of the 1 to 17-year-olds that were hospitalized for COVID were
obese, all right?
Mm-hmm.
But you're going back to the wars with.
going on, people swallow the crap spewing out of the mouth of these little clown boys and
girls. I'm a Republican. I'm a Democrat. I'm a conservative. I'm a liberal. I got a line that big
and I listen to what they tell me. All right. Yeah. I agree. So let's go back to the, you know,
one issue after another. Well, and just this week while you're on the COVID stuff,
how'd you like this, uh, this dog and pony show with Albert Borla? You know, Trump even
gets booed for this, but all of the Maga Press is, you know, look at Trump. This is a victory.
He brought Pfizer to heal. I even played a clip of some guy who is pushing QAnon nonsense saying
he bankrupted Pfizer. Well, Wall Street Journal doesn't, Wall Street analysts don't think so.
Pfizer doesn't think so. And I think this opened up and exposed a whole new level of corruption.
We look at how much Pfizer has been price gouging the American people. And no accountability for that,
just like there's no accountability for anything that was done during the COVID stuff.
Nobody's holding Trump accountable.
Nobody criticizes them for that.
And here you got Pfizer charging more than triple what they charge other countries for drugs.
And there's not going to be any recrimination for that.
There's not going to be any repayment for that.
Instead, Trump is going to do a deal with him, get his name on the deal, Trump RX.
And it's absolutely disgusting.
I mean, children's health defense, which is.
where RFK Jr. used to be is saying, this is insane. There's absolutely, they've covered up
everything about this. We're having to sue with a FOIA request to try to get information about
this. It'll take years. It'll be redacted. They're not telling anybody about the devilish
details in this agreement that is here. And they're all just taking a backseat and going along
with whatever Trump wants to do. The corruption is open. And these people are getting away with
one crime after the other. It's absolutely astounding.
It's been going on forever.
Yeah.
It's been going on forever.
It's a crime syndicate to people call the government.
Yeah, that's right.
Again, you were talking about Afghanistan.
Mm-hmm.
And the Nobel Peace of Crap Prize winner, Barack Obama,
who lied his way into office as being a peace candidate.
As soon as he got in, remember the Afghan troop surge?
Yeah, that's right.
Oh, brought to us by that guy betrayed us?
Oh, betray us.
I forgot.
Now he's with KKR.
Oh, that arrogant military guy.
Yeah, that guy, operate.
Oh, yeah, we're going to win.
We're going to give you.
Again, if Alexander the Great couldn't beat the Afghans,
if the British at the height of the British Empire,
into the Valley of Death Road to 600 couldn't take them out,
if the Russians couldn't do it,
what makes you think the Americans could do it?
The longest war in American history
costs us trillions of dollars,
kill hundreds of thousands of innocent people,
brought you by, and again,
Talking about the people, 90% of the people swallow the crap
spewing out of the mouth of that little gutless, arrogant daddy's boy,
George W. Bush.
You're going to get that guy Osama bin Laden dinner all my life.
90% of the people supported that.
90%.
Now let's go back to your other piece of scum crap that people love.
The little peanut farmer.
Jimmy Carter.
Oh, and that scumb.
Madh Mehi Ratnail, Brazinski.
Oh, yes, daughter's on MSNBC now I forgot.
Anyway, they're the ones that gave us al-Qaeda.
No, no, we've got to rename it.
Mujahideen.
Osama bin Laden ahead of it.
Brought to you by Jimmy Carter and Brzeanski
to stop the Russians from beating the Taliban.
And were people to have no idea about,
Afghanistan was a very, very culturally advanced.
society, artistically, culturally, before the Taliban took over. And Russia was fighting against
that. We stopped that war. We created the Mujah Hadin, which became al-Qaeda.
Just like we created the Ayatollahs in Iran. You know, where we go. Yep. And but people have
no idea about that. Yeah. None. We don't just lose the war as we create,
an incredibly evil left behind blowback
everywhere we go.
We're talking about Iran or Afghanistan.
And yet we're going to continue to do this.
Trump wants to go back into Bogrom.
And, of course, that's not going to happen.
I don't know if he will attack them or what he will do.
There's no way.
Yeah.
There's no way that, you know, Trump.
I mean, you know, a lying,
I had an article here.
Let me sure you're fine.
How'd you like that meeting where he spent?
I think the figure was $6 million to bring in
all of these general.
and admirals so that they could be lectured by Heggseth about how he's going to change things.
And then Trump gets up there and he rambles on and on and on about firemen and how dangerous their job is.
But he loves them because they voted for him, that type of thing.
It was crazy.
A lot of people are questioning his mental capacity now after that.
Well, his mental capacity has been mentally ill for years.
Yeah, yeah.
Our objective is to immediately have a total secession of hostilities.
all shooting has to stop.
We need peace without delay.
Oh, that's when he was lying, running for office.
I forgot.
We want peace on earth all over.
Oh, I'm full of crap.
I was only saying that to get elected.
Shut the hell up, Solentie.
Or maybe we'll kill you if you don't shut up.
Let's keep going.
We will measure our success not only by the battles we win,
but also by the wars we end.
But most importantly, the wars we never get into.
You ready?
my proudest legacy
will be that of a peacemaker
and a unifier.
That's what I want to be
a peacemaker and a unifier.
That's how he lied his way.
Your legacy, who the hell
cares what they think of you when you're dead?
Yeah, yeah.
I don't care what you think about me when I'm alive.
Oh, my legacy.
Well, legacy.
Well, who made this stupid word up?
Yeah.
Well, look at what we were told about Woodrow Wilson.
and he promised he wouldn't get us into that war.
Here.
Ready?
I'm not going to start a war.
I'm going to stop wars.
I'm moving quickly to end wars.
Settle conflicts and restore
the panic to peace. I want peace.
All the lies that he lied
his way into office. Facts are
right there. Shut the hell up,
Salenti. We don't want facts.
We're stupid little morons
and we suck up to the crap
that our politicians spew out.
That's right.
we've been promised many times by people running for office like Woodrow Wilson and
LBJ oh we're not going to get involved in that war we're not going to escalate that war
and we see how that operates over and over again this is just the latest example of it
they always promised peace but what Trump is looking for I think when he talks about
peace he spells it with an eye in the word Gerald he's always looking for a piece of
something somewhere that was the cover of our magazine by the way
A man, a piece or a piece of S-H-R, you know what.
That's right.
Yeah, I want a piece of that country and I want a piece of that country.
I want Venezuela as well and all the rest of the stuff.
And then, you know, when he brings these, as irrelevant as most of what he had to say was, you know,
he gets there in front of this giant flag like he's George C. Scott at the beginning of Patton.
And then he tells him, we've got the enemy within.
I think that's a pretty ominous thing as well.
What do you think about that, you know, what Trump is doing?
to set more troops into U.S. cities.
Yeah.
Top military leaders told U.S. cities could be training grounds.
Yeah.
You mean, um, president tells military brass, quote, the flight enemy within U.S.?
Is that what you're talking about?
Yeah.
I'm talking about the police state, the military police state.
You know, at InfoWars, when I was there, they did four documentaries about police state
USA.
They need to do one and call it police state number five, the Trump deception, I think.
That was one of them.
You had a bomb a deception.
I don't know if that was the police state sub-series or if that was a separate one.
It's sad.
Well, you know, I got, like you, I've been banned on, I used to do, I used to be on Info Wars all that once a week for years.
But now, police state and war in Latin America is a good thing.
David Ica is all over, Alex, for that because he said, hey, yeah, you know, Latin America, we've won the wars down there.
The wars that we fought for United Fruit Company and other things like that, that's a Natalie Butler,
exposed but yeah i mean it's like whatever happened i mean we used to be for peace and we used to be
for uh the constitution of free speech but now we're not you know we just uh we never have it's
been going on forever no i mean the the media you know the people that we worked with you know
just you see these uh trump influencers out there whatever trump wants and trump doesn't want
any of those things of course he just pretends to and he has his influencers telling you that
it's just 40 chess or something
Again, you know, an article just came out about America's trust in the media is at the lowest level ever.
Gallup poll just came out.
Again, the media, again, tracking trends is the understanding of where we are, how we got here to see where we were going.
This is a T-shirt that I did back in 1992 when little Billy Clinton was running for office.
Yeah.
This is a little clown, arrogant, arrogant, lying piece of crap
that was worth nothing that's now worth, what,
about $130 million?
Yeah, gets paid off.
Anyway, he's the one that gave us the Federal Communications Act in 1996,
deregulated the communications industry.
There were thousands of independent radio stations,
television stations, magazines, newspapers,
now six countries control 92.
Six companies control 92% of America's media.
92%.
Yeah.
There is nothing.
Again, we're giving people in the Trends Journal.
We're independent.
We have no advertisers.
And again, you put the link in that you have over there.
It costs the grand total a $2.50 a week.
That's right.
Using the code night, you can get
discount 10% there at TransJournal.
And you look at the facts of what's going on now and how they're, this guy, what's his
name on the article here somewhere, this guy Carr, who's the FCC champ.
Oh, yeah, Brendan Carr, yeah.
Yeah.
There's an article here about how, here it is.
You ready?
Yeah.
Talking about the media.
Yeah, right here.
car plans to keep going after the media.
The FCC chair has threatened TV licenses over what he sees.
You're ready?
As liberal bias in broadcasts.
Hey, hey, fat mouth.
Oh, only conservative, can't have liberal?
And again, they're not liberals anymore.
They're libtards.
But anyway, how come, who the hell are you to say who should say what?
Shut the hell up, Solenti?
I'm the FCC chair.
You're just a little giddy from the Bronx.
Yeah.
What the hell is this guy to say what anybody should say?
Hey, this is America.
You got it, A.M.E.R. I don't Trump.
Well, you know, you've got a lot of these comedians who've been paid a lot of money to go to Saudi Arabia.
And Saudi Arabia is saying, look at this.
We allow these people to criticize America here in Saudi Arabia.
It's like, yeah, you try criticizing Islam or try.
criticizing the little king that is there and see what happens to you're going to get the Khashoggi
treatment they'll not only cut your program they'll cut your throat but uh the the reality is is that
we can see that you know in Saudi Arabia of course you know they don't care if you criticize
America um an American censorship which should be criticized just don't criticize them so free speech
is only there if you allow people to criticize what you disagree uh with you only if you allow the speech
that you disagree with.
And all of this hate speech stuff.
And, of course, the Trump administration is playing the same game that the left did.
They're playing the same game that the Saudi dictator is doing.
None of these people, that's the thing, Gerald.
I don't see anywhere where free speech is promoted as a principle.
Certainly not in Europe, not in the U.S., not in Saudi Arabia or Israel.
Nowhere.
Yeah, nowhere now.
Oh, look what they're doing in the U.K., how they're locking people.
Australia, one after a night.
That's right.
Yeah, it's crazy.
Germany.
You can't come out again.
You cannot come out for the Palestinians.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
You're not allowed to.
Keep the slaughter going.
You ready for this?
The American people don't believe anything until they see it on television.
You know who said that?
Who said that?
Richard Nixon.
Yeah.
Well, the problem is going to be people can't believe what they see on TV either.
There was an app that came out this week, and it was out from Open A.I.
And, of course, they took the CEO of Open A.I.
And they made a video showing him shoplifting GPU cards at a Walmart or something or Target.
And so people said they don't realize what they're showing people here is just how dangerous this stuff could be.
They've already had people who have been falsely identified by AI facial recognition and biometrics.
and even though they were warned
that that was not completely reliable
they went ahead and used that to prosecute the person
and they were able to beat the rap
but you're not going to be able to trust what you see on TV
either because these things are getting very, very good.
No, it's disgusting.
Yeah.
And it's only going to, AI is going to make things a lot worse.
And again, you talked about,
again, you were talking before about the Ukraine war.
People have no idea how the United States,
United States
over through the
democratically elected
government of
Vicky Anakovich
in 2014.
Yeah, that's right.
We wrote about it
in detail.
I'm so happy that guy is.
I've told you this
a dozen times.
That is 2014
is that when the
magazine used to be
a quarterly, now it's
a weekly, about
the United States
overthrow, Washington
is driving the world
to the final war
and Washington's
coup in Ukraine
brought not only a threat
to the Russian population
in Ukraine,
but also a
direct strategic threat to Russia itself.
I mean, it's right here.
People have no idea about the facts.
They don't care about the facts.
Go to CNN.
It's something about Taylor Swift's new album, all right?
That's the front page.
That's right.
I'm not making it up.
Yeah.
Nothing about the slaughter the Palestinian people.
Nothing.
Zero.
That or the latest celebrity divorce that is out there, you know?
Yeah.
Yeah, exactly right.
And they're talking about censorship.
Narrative war pits Pentagon against press.
This is New York Times, 925, September 25th.
Imagine for a moment that the Defense Department's new demand for a pledge from Pentagon reporters
a commitment not to publish even unclassified information except what U.S. press officers approve.
Yeah, yeah.
All right?
Yeah.
Press officers?
What's a little arrogant clown telling me what I should say?
And this is unclassified?
Yeah.
And if you do it, we'll kill you.
Or throw you in jail.
This is the kind of stuff that they do when there's a declared war,
except they've got all these wars going on,
even though they don't declare them.
And so, of course, the censorship is part of what we see with an ongoing war.
And we have war everywhere.
And every day.
it seems like we're getting some new conflict.
It's just like this thing with Bogram came out of nowhere,
and he's had about as much chance of getting the Afghan government there
to sign on to that as he does getting Greenland.
But, you know, I never thought that he would attack Greenland.
I could imagine that he would attack Bagram.
Now, you know, at the rally, this is what I read.
We the people of the United States,
to form a more perfect union,
establish justice,
insured domestic tranquility,
provide for the common defense,
promote the general welfare,
and secure the blessings of liberty
to ourselves
and our posterity.
Do ordain and establish this constitution
for the United States of America.
What do you mean, we the people?
It's me, the politician, not you the people.
So shut the hell up.
Yep. Yeah.
Again, you saw it,
COVID war from from cities to states to the nation we're in charge we'll tell you what to do oh now
look at the Democrats over there pumping up that arrogant little another daddy's boy got
sewn Gavin Newsom yep oh this the slime ball that locked down California while he's
partying up at the French laundry for $400 a plate yeah that was cost for people to eat
I'm having a party with my friends.
We don't need masks.
We could do what we want.
You're just a little plantation worker of slave landing.
You do what I tell you to do.
Yeah.
He's always got a new scam coming out, doesn't he?
That should call him Gavin New Scam.
Yeah.
One scam after the other.
Yeah, it's an elite club and we're not in it.
And, of course, you know, when you talk about it,
the press and the consolidation, we've not seen this kind of consolidation in the past that we're
seeing now with the Ellisons, for example. You know, we have seen, I remember years ago, they're
saying, you know, look at, you've got all the different press that are being consolidated, both
broadcast as well as printed press, were consolidating into just a few companies. And they
saw the same thing happening in the film industry. They were consolidating into just a few of the
few studios and now with Larry Ellison what you're seeing is a consolidation now that they've
consolidated these individual industries now they are consolidating these few remaining studios
and these few remaining press agencies they're consolidating them together Ellison is doing that
and also now with TikTok you're starting to see once you bring TikTok and social media you have
social media entertainment and the press all being consolidated and held by just a couple of people
Yep.
That's the pattern that we're seeing here.
And again, I've been banned on TikTok, banned on Facebook.
Yeah.
Yep.
And I think that kind of consolidation for control is one of the worst forms of censorship,
because that's what we've been fighting from the very beginning with this.
You know, when they come out and the Pentagon says,
you can't report on that, that gets people's attention.
But when they just make you disappear, you know,
or they swamp you with all the rest of this slop that they put out there,
that's the thing that's difficult.
to get around.
We will know our disinformation
program is complete
when everything the American
public believes is false.
Yeah, that's right. Remember that one?
Yeah, that's right. William Casey.
Yeah.
CIA director, 1981.
Yeah. All right?
This crap's been going on for a long time.
Mm-hmm.
That was a guy...
It's been going on for a long time.
That was a guy who was running the Iran-Contra thing, you know?
Yeah.
One of the founders of O.
that they went to the CIA and he became Reagan's campaign manager and then
heavy in the Reagan administration, Bill Casey, wild Bill Casey.
Yep, yeah, going to deceive the American company.
I was very sad. Very, very sad. And I'm very sad. I'm telling you that, you know,
this thing cost a lot of money in aggravation to put on these rallies.
And that's so few people, no young people. A matter of fact,
there's a nice young guy that goes to Bard College, which is right across the
river over here it's in right uh half hour away and he put signs up all over the campus all over
rindbeck told all his friends not one young person showed up from school not one there's an article
in um in uh mondays new york times about how kids in college and young people they don't talk
to each other anymore they're on the phones all the
That's right. That's right.
And that's the future.
It's, it's, it's, it's, um, it's so sad.
Yes.
It's so sad.
You know, as I say, they misspelled it in the King's James Bible where they said the meek shall
inherit the earth.
Mm-hmm.
The geeks have inherited the earth.
Yeah.
The music stinks.
The style stinks.
Look, look how they brought down the style.
These little clown boys dress it up in jeans and a, and a crappy t-shirt.
Yeah.
And that's what it is.
now. I go out last night to a very fine restaurant. There's a guy my age with a baseball cap on.
Yeah. You know, I like to wear when you wear them backwards. Or you're going to put a
catch his mask on. What is it? Yeah. Well, there's one thing I started the show with, Gerald,
I'd like to get your take on it. You know, and that's Farmageddon. Trump's tariff policies have been
horrific, especially for small businesses, but nowhere more so than the farms.
They were the ones who were selling a lot of product to China, and Trump has made that go down
to zero.
They had soybean, for example.
We had a report about that.
$12.5 billion, China bought in soybean last year.
This year, they bought zero, zero.
And in Arkansas, one out of every three family farms are going down.
Now, Trump's solution of this is kind of what he did when he locked down the country in
2020. I'll give you a stimulus check. And this is the technocratic program to put us all on the dole,
put us all on welfare. We won't have jobs, won't have businesses. And this is one of the things
that I think is just so incredibly horrific about this. Now, the tariffs really are still not
staple. That's the key thing. As bad as it is, even though it is a tax, it's yet another
tax and you know I saw all this delusional stuff and the Trump media about how he's going to get
rid of the income tax and of course we knew that wasn't going to happen because at the same time
he's saying he's going to put these tariffs on he goes and I'm going to make the tax cuts
permanent well if he makes a tax cuts so the income tax cuts permanent that means he's making
the income tax permanent as well so it was clearly wasn't going to do that in the past
conservatives would always be suspicious and aware when somebody was changing the tax structure
and say, wait a minute, am I going to wind up with two taxes where I used to have just one?
But this time, everybody has gone to sleep.
And nobody is pointing that out.
And it's just a replay of the lockdown, I think.
What do you think about economically what's happening and the damage with us?
And, of course, it's going before the Supreme Court.
And so whether or not he can just arbitrarily impose tariffs on a whim, if he has a bad day or he gets angry with somebody in a particular country,
he'll jack the tariffs up on that particular country
for no apparent reason except for his narcissism
but it'll be interesting to see what the Supreme Court says about this
but the damage this year has been horrific
and it's one of the reasons why gold is up so much
and you've been talking about that as well what do you see happening with the economy
first of all there's going to be a dot-com bust
they're way over-invested in the
again trends are born they grow the mature reach old age and die
AI became public only three years ago.
You don't invest all your money in the infancy.
Number two, again, I've mentioned this a number of times.
Again, Slick Willy.
Before he brought China into the World Trade Organization, 10% of Chinese 18-year-olds went to college.
Today, nearly 70%.
We're talking before about how young people are totally addicted, their AI high-tech addicted.
China's going to lead the world of the AI.
You're seeing it with Deep Seek.
Matter of fact, Deep Seek just came out with another one.
Yesterday, all different languages, much more efficient than any of the other ones out there,
the Chinese company, for a much cheaper price.
There's going to be a dot-com bust.
You're looking at the PE ratios way, way overvalued.
And then you're looking at only a handful of companies,
the so-called magnificent seven that are driving up the NASDAQ.
Like, a couple of them are responsible for 37% of the increase in the NASDAQ.
There's going to be a dot-com bust.
Globally, take a look at oil prices.
Brent Crude, last year was selling, on average, $81 a barrel,
and now we're looking about $64 a barrel, $65 a barrel.
And the reason being is there's a lot more supply than demand.
Then you have to look at the real numbers.
Look what's going on in Germany.
Two years of recession, third largest economy in the world, largest one in Europe, heading
to the third year recession.
Maybe it'll come out flat.
One country after another in Europe going down.
The emerging markets are submerging.
There's going to be the, we are headed for the worst geopolitical and socioeconomic crisis in my lifetime.
And I've been forecasting now for 45 years.
I've never seen anything like this in the end.
Going back to gold, oh, you like the stock markets going up?
How much did gold go up this year?
47%.
How much the silver go up?
Only 60%.
Yeah, it's amazing, isn't it?
It's telling you how bad it is.
Yeah, that's right.
It's telling you the danger ahead.
That's why the prices are soaring.
And here's the other thing.
The lower interest rates go the deeper the dollar falls.
The deeper the dollar falls, the higher gold prices go up.
Because gold is dollar-based.
So it's cheaper by when your currencies go up.
Number two, they're going to come out.
You saw that little Eric Trump boy talking more about these so-called stable.
Coins.
Yeah.
Orwell could not have come up with a better name.
Yeah.
I know.
People coin?
Who you're talking to?
Everything's going to go digital.
They're going to come up with a CBDC, Central Bank Digital Currency.
This is way worth more than a dollar.
We just got rid of our debt level.
By the way, talking about the global economy,
$340 trillion in debt.
when you put the nations together.
Actually, it's much higher than that.
In the United States, for example,
it's not a $37 trillion debt level.
It's more like $137 trillion.
They don't put in Social Security,
don't go in Medicaid, they don't put in Medicaid.
They don't put in all the money
the government owes for all these other ones.
When you put that in, you're well over $100 trillion.
Oh, yeah?
By the facts.
So you're talking about the crisis
and why gold prices are going up.
Again, I've been at this for 45,
years. I started buying gold at $163 an ounce back in 1978. I've been following me
at a long time. So that's where we're going. There's going to be a, and then they're going
to ramp up the Israel war. They're going to attack Iran. If they attack Iran, it's a beginning
of the end of life on earth because you don't get, you don't have to be good at math to figure
this out. There are 91 million Iranians versus 7 million Israelis.
Oh, Iran, very advanced scientifically, militarily, technologically.
And what does Israel say when they're going to lose?
Look it up.
Samson option, S-A-M-S-O-N.
We start losing, we go nuclear.
Oh, Israel's allowed to have nuclear weapons.
I forgot, they're the chosen people.
Oh, they only have between 200 to 400 nuclear warheads.
Ron can't have any. North Korea can't have any.
We'll tell you who could have them.
Well, you know, when you look at the cruise missiles,
now Trump wants to, he's gone from the peace summit with Putin and Alaska
to now he's going to put cruise missiles there in Ukraine
so they can go deep into Russian territory saying,
well, well, I'm going to limit it to infrastructure attacks.
Well, it seems to me like that's going to go both ways.
What do you think is going to happen here?
I would imagine that they're not going to launch some intercontinental ballistic missile,
but you'll have infrastructure attacks that will have plausible deniability.
And our infrastructure is very vulnerable to that type of an attack, an asymmetric attack.
And that could be done by Russia.
It could be done by China.
It could be done by some of these drug cartels that they want to go to war with.
And how they will use it, regardless of who it is, it's doing that,
I think is going to be, you know, up to, you can just spend the wheel to see what they're going to do with that.
What do you think is going to happen?
Are we going to see massive disruption in that regard as well as Trump is talking about the enemy within?
And he's going to, you know, war with cartels as well as with people on the left.
He wants to deploy the military.
Seems like he wants to have a civil war here as well.
What do you think about that?
Let's talk about the cartels.
It's a lot of crap.
It had nothing to do with cartels.
tells. Let's go back. We should talk about
attacking Venezuela because of
overthrowing the Maduro government. Right.
Cartels. Why don't we go back to when he
was president back in, what was it,
2019, 2020,
when he tried to overthrow the government with that little
clown boy, what was his name,
Guido?
Yeah. He's the real president
of Venezuela, not Maduro.
Remember that one? Remember when they
try to overthrow it? They came in from Columbia
and they got wiped out? Yeah, that's right.
Had nothing to do with drug cartels back then.
That's right.
It's about regime change, but they'll blame it on that, you know.
That's what I'm saying.
It's a lot of crap.
Yeah.
It's a bunch of BS about cartels.
They're using this as an excuse.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Again, go by the facts.
He tried to overthrow the government when he was president back in 2019 and 2020.
I covered an article yesterday.
A guy made the point that we never heard of this trend.
2020, rather.
Yeah.
Guy made the point that we'd never heard of this trendy arugua or whatever.
I just call him the trendy gang.
He'd never heard of the trendy gang until 2018,
which is when they started making their first moves in terms of doing this kind of stuff.
So I said, so is it a CIA created organization like they have done in the takeover of Syria
or the things that we have seen in Afghanistan or places like that?
Is it kind of a false flag thing to start with?
Because we know that the CIA has been.
running drugs out of Central America and other things like that.
And so is this whole trendy gang, is that really a deep state operation there to give
them an excuse to try to attack Venezuela, as if they needed one?
I mean.
Here, Venezuela, that's a pretty rich oil country, isn't it?
Yeah.
Yeah, very rich.
You think you mentioned Syria.
You mean the United States taking over the oil in eastern Syria on the,
the Assad regime?
We won't talk about that.
Oh, you mean
they try to overthrow
the Assad government, which they did, because
Iran wanted to put a
pipeline into Syria
so they could bring the oil out
into the
Mediterranean
over there? Oh, and they overthrew
the took over?
Libya,
when the Nobel Peace of Crap
Prize winner, Barack Obama, along with
oh, if only women were in charge, we
We'd have no war.
Hitler, Clinton, Samantha Power, Susan Rice, overthrow the Qaddafi government?
Oh, you mean Libya that has one of the richest oil fields in the world where you don't have to dig deep to get the oil out?
You think we would have invaded Iraq, Syria, Libya, go into Venezuela if their major export was broccoli?
And then, of course, we got the pipeline, the Nord Stream pipeline, you know, had to blow that up so we could sell.
them are liquid gas and all that kind of stuff it's all about that isn't it yeah that's all it's
about you mentioned smetley butler before yeah was a racket and he talks about that yeah yeah so
i'm heartbroken here ready for this i just read this before i went on a lot on the air
Israel Caesar's last fatale boat
ready to deport hundreds
as more ships set sail for Gaza
invading these boats in international water
as they're trying to bring food to the starving people in Gaza.
That's all right.
Hey, we can do what we want.
You ready?
Trump gives Sunday deadline for Hamas
to take his Gaza proposal,
quote, or be quickly extinguished.
this is the Israel that violated the last ceasefire agreement
oh we won't talk about that oh yes we will
they violated in the middle in March 16th or 18th
and then they started starving all the Palestinian people
oh Hamas agreed to the ceasefire agreement but Israel broke it
Israel's oh they're killing people in Lebanon every day
oh no they're Hamas people are killing over there
No, no, they were Hezbole of people.
I forgot.
It violated the Lebanon ceasefire agreement over a hundred times.
Yeah.
I'm telling you, if they go war against Iran,
it's going to be the beginning of the end of life on Earth.
I am so heartbroken that there's no support for peace.
Oh, oh, Musk is worth now what?
$500 billion?
Hey, got some.
How about a billion for peace?
Yeah.
Screw you, Salente.
I want $600 billion.
Don't you know who I am?
Yeah.
You're a nobody.
Ah, I must.
And you must listen to me.
You F you, Jack.
Yeah.
Not a penny for peace in the billionaires.
Oh, you mentioned Ellison, huh?
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
And they're controlling everything.
allowed to come out against Israel you're an anti-sami you're a few yeah when we look at the
what Trump did at the UN I really got my attention you know when they were talking
about putting in Tony Blair as a governor of Gaza and then all of a sudden a day or so
later it's like oh no we want Trump as the governor of this or whatever and I'm like
what happened with this and all of a sudden it all changed because
Because Netanyahu came in, and Trump had this plan that he had taken around to the Gulf states and Arab states and got them to all say, yeah, we like that.
Took it to the U.N., even though it was a horrible plan, they all liked that, and he released it.
And then Netanyahu comes in and completely rewrites it, and Trump does everything that Netanyahu wants on that.
Yep.
Again, you know, the United, look at the cover of the magazine this week.
Talk about the United Nations.
Mm-hmm.
It's called the United Nothings.
Mm-hmm.
All talk, no action.
Yeah, yeah.
And they steal our money, the plantation workers are slave land here, so these little clown boys and girls could be UN and this and that.
Nothing.
Empty, empty words, no action.
Oh, but I forgot, they're the ones that officially made Israel as a state back in 1948.
Yeah.
Stealing the land of the Palestinian people.
His Majesty's government declares that the land in Palestine will be settled by the Jewish people.
Jewish people
and we will use our best endeavors
to achieve this objective
well that was the Balfour Declaration
in 1917 brought you by the Rothschilds
No it's
terrible
terrible terrible terrible terrible
terrible what's going on
no outrage and if you come out
against it
yeah these are Israel
an overwhelming exodus
as Israel pounds Gaza
yep
on and on and on
on and on much of Gaza's largest urban center is flattened yeah up to total ruins
Hamas is living in every every hospital there in every school there in every house
where's the outrage yeah yeah none yeah none a small group of us are fighting but other than that
And what you mentioned before about what's going on Ukraine, Russia on Thursday, I heard you say this,
that there was no cold war with the West because it was now a fiery conflict.
Yeah, that's right.
World War III has begun.
You asked before, my mind went into another area about what's going to happen in Ukraine,
a false flag event.
They're going to blow up a nuclear power plant.
They're going to do something.
They're going to create something that's going to escalate that war.
Yeah.
And we know that all the NATO countries are, you know, pushing this and planning for it.
They are, you know, increasing the draft.
They're increasing their military spending.
I mean, here in Germany where their economy is tanking, they're going in and borrowing money
and putting massive amounts into military expenditure.
And both Germany and France are telling their hospitals to get ready for mass casualties
as this is all happening.
It isn't like these things are some event that's going to get out of control and run
way, these people are pushing it relentlessly towards this goal.
Writing about it every week in the magazine.
Yeah.
Talked about Germany.
Again, two years of recession, heading into their third,
they're borrowing a trillion dollars.
A trillion dollars to build up their military,
and we're going to build up our infrastructure so they could hold a tanks.
I'm not making this up.
Brought you by Halmertz, oh, Mertz, the Black Rock guy,
that's playing the chancellor.
We've got to stop those Russians.
We only killed 25 million of them in World War II.
We've got to kill more of them now.
Oh, this is the Germany that gave us World War I in World War II?
Yeah.
All right.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Germany.
Yeah.
That slaughtered Operation Barbarosis killed over 25 million Russian people.
Oh, by the way, who were the first to defeat the Germans in World War II?
The Russians.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Right.
Yeah.
You ready?
What you were talking about.
U.S. to provide Keeve with intelligence for missile strikes deep inside Russia.
Crisis is unfolding at Russian-held nuclear plant.
We've been warning about this.
And here's they say, right here, Russia says Ukraine artillery severed the
severed the line and render repairs too dangerous to repair.
Ukraine is bombing a thing.
You're going to blame it on the Russians.
Well, I mean, just looking how everybody is looking for any kind of excuse.
I mean, we had these situations with drones, harassing airports in Denmark.
And, you know, they wanted to try to build that into World War III.
And it's like, you know, you can't prove that that will.
who that was. I mean, it could be domestic people that were doing that. And we had that
happening all over the East Coast about a year ago. But before we run out of time, I got a couple
of comments here. I wanted to give you Gerald from Guard Goldsmith. He said, I wish I'd
been able to be with the folks at Gerald's event. He said, the speakers are great. He caught
it online. He said, they'd planned to go. And I met Guard when I was there four years ago.
He said, frustrating, but he got to watch online. You got sick.
He said he couldn't make it, but yeah, it truly is sad that there isn't any support for peace.
And even, you know, it's just, it's crazy the way people are manipulated, how tribal everybody's gotten.
You know, you take a look at this Charlie Kirk thing, and everybody is freaking out about it.
They want to name everything after Charlie Kirk.
And yet, what was it that Charlie Kirk did?
He would go and promote free speech and free debate.
And yet these same people are wanting to try to shut down speech and debate.
I think it's just a sign of the times in which we live,
and people are losing their mind here at the end of this fourth turning.
And as you pointed out, as the financial stuff is going down,
they always take us to war.
That's what really happens in a fourth turning.
It's always a major economic catastrophe,
and then they take us to war.
And they know what times that we're in.
You know, they constantly talk about these generations,
and, you know, Gen Z, Gen X,
we're, you know, boomers and this and that, millennials.
And yet they don't want you to look at the overreational,
trend that is a cyclical thing that is that is then also a exploited by these leaders who
know what the zeitgeist is in a particular culture at any given time and so they use that to
get what they want which is to take us toward or distract us from what they're doing yeah it's sad
and it's true yeah and again people don't like me because I'm angry he who is not angry when
there is just cause for anger is immoral. Why? Because anger looks to the good of justice. And if you live
a bit injustice without anger, you are immoral as well as unjust. That's right. That's a good place
to end it. And again, everybody go to Trends Journal and don't forget to use a code night. And you get
basically 12 times the content that used to get a few years ago from Gerald. You speak quarterly
announced weekly. And we have
someone here who has to... Got a comment and a
tip from Big Olaf. Thank you, Big Olavs.
Love the content. Thanks for keeping it real.
And we keep it real by getting
Gerald Slinty on here frequently. Thank you so much
for coming on, Gerald. Appreciate it. Appreciate
Trends Journal. Thank you so much.
Thank you. Have a good weekend, everybody.
They created common core to dumb down our children.
They created common past to track and control us.
Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing and the communist future.
They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary.
But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God.
That is what we have in common.
That is what they want to take away.
Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation.
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.
