Come on, come on, yes, yes, come on. At this year's Cheltenham, glory rests in the lap of the gods. Oh, curses. Alas, our hero hasn't placed. But there are still divine offerings up for grabs, with all NoviBet customers getting a €10 free bet for every day of Cheltenham. And on top of that, we're paying up to seven places each way on selected races throughout the festival. I declare this a most generous offering.

No, we bet. More power to you. using free speech to free minds. You're listening to The David Knight Show. As the clock strikes 13, it's Monday, the 6th of February, year of our Lord, 2023, day 1061 of the emergency. Yes, it continues in every way. And as people are not giving that any attention whatsoever, we're all focused on the balloon story. Isn't that interesting? How it's so easy for them to misdirect us.

Well, we're going to begin with that. And we're going to take a look at what actually happened but also why this is being made a big deal of and we'll also be talking of course about the war they don't want you talking about about the bioweapon war against us the vaccines it continues the economic warfare against us inflation and cbdc's all the rest of But hey, let's focus first on the balloon. We'll be right back to do that. I remember how upset and present she got when the cartoon was put out with Winnie the Pooh and Tigger walking side by side. And adjacent to it was a picture of President Xi walking next to Barack Obama, who was quite a bit taller than him.

Well, you know, here's Pooh with his balloon and Tigger too. And Piglet. Yeah. So we're going to take a look at this. It's so amazing. How did they know that it was Chinese if they hadn't been tracking it for a while? Right. And then, of course, if it was a threat, why wouldn't they have shut it down long ago but waited until it crossed the entire United States? I said they had to wait until it wasn't over land.

Well, you know, it was over the, I don't know. They say it went over the hardened missile silos. You think they could withstand a drop from a balloon? If they can't, we're in big trouble. The whole thing is just beyond absurdity. As many people were writing me, here's one listener who said, I worked five years in military flight line while serving in the Marine Corps. I was stationed at Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, North Carolina, which isn't far from where the balloon was shot down.

I can confidently say the federal government spent at least half a million dollars for this made-for-TV production. That's exactly what it was, for TV production. Uh, you've got a, uh, that, um, I've seen it, uh, at, uh, you know, $200 million jet, a half million dollar missile. And it wasn't just one chat that was there. They had two of them. How much does it cost to fly those things? But the uh the tv production values were worth it weren't they so why did they do all this stuff and when you look at the breathless media reports u.s u.s stealth jet shoots down a chinese

the carolinas it was absolutely necessary to creep up on this thing. It might have gone into evasive maneuvers. You would have never caught the balloon with a jet. And they had two of them. They went by the call letters of Frank 1 and Frank 2, which I thought was the most interesting side story of all this stuff. I won't go into a great deal of detail with it, but it was named after a guy who was Frank. I forget his last name i didn't put it here to talk about it but he was in world war one you know about 100 years ago uh they would use these you know brand new things called uh planes bipl, to attack the observation balloons. And he took down, I think, 14 balloons

in 17 days before he got shot down. Very interesting story. You know, the balloons would shoot back in those days. They had observation balloons because they didn't have any way to relay the information other than, you know, people looking and taking notes about what they saw. And of course, it was used in in civil war as well. They would use hot air balloons as observation, uh, points to get a high perspective. But, um, the, uh, after taking down one of these, he was being chased by some planes. He was shot down. I don't know if they shot down by the planes, shot down with the people on the ground. As he's going down, he's, uh, shooting with his machine gun, the people on the ground,

he gets out and he's fighting them with his pistol. And they eventually shot and killed him. The Germans did, but it was interesting story. And, uh, yet this is interesting in its own way because how advanced our technology has become and how backwards our press and nation has become and our government. That's an interesting twist, isn't it? You know, all the technology in the world doesn't make us any smarter. Sometimes it makes us dumber. So as a matter of fact, I've had that conversation with somebody in the past. I see this frequently, but I never really had somebody say the quiet part out loud except once.

And that was a guy I was talking to, and he said, well, I was talking about what we had seen up in Williamsburg. We take the kids up there a lot. And how interesting what Jefferson had created there at his house and his inventions and his transcription thing where he could write letters to people, make a copy of himself, and all these different things that I thought were fascinating. But he says, ah, he doesn't know anything. Yeah, he's not. Yeah, those people back then, why do we even pay attention to them?

Those people back there were so stupid. He wouldn't even be able to drive a car. What? It makes you intelligent because you can drive a car? Could you fix it even, let alone build one? I bet if you gave Jefferson a few months, he could, but you couldn't. I mean, it's just amazing. People think they're so sophisticated because they got iPads or iPhones or whatever to spy on them. Yeah, that's what the NSA said. You know, who would have thought in 1984, they show a picture of the Big Brother commercial

that this, and they show Steve Jobs holding the iPhone, that this would be Big Brother and that the zombies would line up to pay for it. That's the language that they use, the NSA, saying people who pay for their own Big Brother device are zombies. And we will dominate them. So, yeah, I don't think Jefferson would pay for a smartphone. I think he would be a little bit wiser. So, you know, StealthJet shooting this thing down, right?

And it's not just that, uh, they're, they're just gushing about this latest triumph of America over China. The balloons payloads about 90 feet long length of two motor homes. Uh, the balloon itself is much larger and, um, you know, people were following this thing and taking pictures of it all the way across the country. You had Fox news doing live updates. It's like, you know, NORAD following this thing and taking pictures of it all the way across the country. You had Fox News doing live updates. It's like NORAD reporting on Santa Claus Christmas Eve. Biden praises the Top Gun F-22 fighter jet pilot who shot down the China spy balloon.

That's headlines from Daily Mail. So it's stealth and it has a top gun pilot. Uh, you know, they should have just sent Jerome Powell. He knows how to deal with inflation. Doesn't he? It's created enough of it. He should be an expert by this point in time. And I'm sure that Jerome Powell could easily puncture any Chinese balloon.

Uh, that was there. By the way, here's the name of the guy. Frank Luke Jr. was the pilot that they named Frank one of Frank two after the Arizona balloon buster is what they nicknamed him because he took down so many German balloons. And again, that was a, that was a bigger challenge in those days. You know, they had balloons that shot back. Anyway, U.S. downs Chinese balloon, drawing a threat from China.

Well, why is China threatening about that if it's just a weather balloon that went off course? Except, of course, there's two of them. So there's a lot of questions about this. You know, exactly what is this? China says, um, uh, we have the right to take further actions. They criticize the U S for an obvious overreaction and a serious violation of international practices. Well, if it's just a weather balloon, what are you so upset about?

Right? Uh, the debris landed in 47 feet of water, much shallower than officials had expected. It spread out over roughly seven miles with the recovery operation. The reason for that is because it is such a high altitude. They say they can go up to 120,000 feet, but this one was about 60,000 feet. So it's going to spread out in the large footprints coming down. Pentagon acknowledged reports of a second balloon flying over Latin America.

At this year's Cheltenham, glory rests in the lap of the gods. Curses! Alas, our hero hasn't placed. But there are still divine offerings up for grabs, with all NoviBet customers getting a €10 free bet for every day of Cheltenham. And on top of that, we're paying up to seven places each way on selected races throughout the festival.

I declare this a most generous offering. NoviBet. More power to you. T&C Supply 18 Plus. Bet responsibly. GamblingCare.ie. They said, we now assess it's another Chinese surveillance balloon, said Brigadier General Pat Ryder, press secretary at the Pentagon. Officials said the balloons are part of a fleet that China uses for surveillance. They can be maneuvered remotely through small motors and propellers. One official said they carry equipment in the pod under the balloon that is not usually associated with standard meteorological activities of civilian research well you know they just might have been out there trying to figure out what all this global warming

stuff is that everybody else is so upset about uh yeah they're not affected by it china's not affected by global warming they're allowed to build as many power plants and make them as cheap and dirty as they possibly can india as well so what's the big deal let's send up a weather balloon see if we can figure this out. China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs did not immediately respond to a question about the second balloon. Yeah, well, you know, they're just got all these balloons that are going off course. However, there's a lot of speculation, wild speculation from various people. Here is the GOP House Oversight Chairman, James Comer. This is what he thinks this might all be about.

My concern is that the federal government obviously doesn't know what's in that balloon. Is that bioweapons in that balloon? Did that balloon take off from Wuhan? Did it take off from Wuhan? Did it take off from Wuhan? Oh, yeah. Where have you been? Yeah, that's exactly what you'd do.

You'd want to take the balloon up to 60,000 feet and release a bioweapon. That'd be real effective. You know what would be more effective? If you just shot the bioweapon into people's arms. How about that, Comer? You want to do something about that, pal? Instead of worrying about the balloon, you talk about misdirection. Unbelievable misdirection.

You want to buy a weapon? Talk to your President Trump about it, okay? Wuhan. Did it take off from Wuhan? I don't know. Maybe it did. Biosafety level for a balloon. Some in military circles said that the balloon, which could be a platform for bombs or an attack on the electric grid with a small nuclear weapon, an EMP pulse, right?

Why would you? They've got hypersonic missiles. Why would they launch a sneak attack on the power grid with an EMP if they got hypersonic missiles? That's all you really need. Yeah, the missile cost is about $400,000. That's right. Yeah, about half a million. And it varies, you know, depending on which model of the missile

and how many of them you buy at a time. You know, you might be able to get a quantity discount with a military industrial complex. I love repeat business, as you can see in Ukraine. Rhonda Tate. Good to see you, Rhonda. How much longer will Rockfin be open? Several people are asking this.

We don't have at this moment any plans to close it. We're still thinking about if there's a way that we can do a special show. And we'll announce that. We're still on Rockfin. And we'll announce that. We're still on Rockfin, and we'll continue there. Unless they tell us that we've got to go because we're not doing a special show, we might be able to come up with some kind of a show to do. It's just too much for me to do six broadcasts a week.

And so that's what we're looking at right now. I'd like to not cut anybody off. We have some people. We hadn't thought about it. We were just going to shut it down. That was the initial intention. But we had some people say, well, I just re-upped for a year at Rockfan. I felt bad about that. And then we had some people say, well, where I am, they put filters on for streaming the show on all the known places. Rockfin got in under the radar.

They didn't know about Rockfin. So that was the only place that some people contacted and said they could watch it at work or listen to it at work as they're working. And so we wanted to try to keep that going. So we're not sure at this moment. Back to this. So we have another Republican congressman speaking up, besides one who thinks it might be a bioweapon from Wuhan. That's Representative Michael Waltz, I should say, from Florida.

And he says that this is a Sputnik moment. There you go. He said, I think a potential silver lining from this spy balloon incident is, I'm hoping, it's a Sputnik moment for American society and the government in Washington, D.C. that we need, we absolutely need a wake-up call. This is the most massive spying operation that any adversary has ever undertaken against the United States in American history.

Oh, yeah. Okay. So we need to have new programs. I think we might have a balloon gap here. We need to get our balloons before they get even more balloons. We need to spy back on them, you know. At this year's Cheltenham, glory rests in the lap of the gods. Curses.

Alas, our hero hasn't placed. But there are still divine offerings up for grabs, with all NoviBet customers getting a €10 free bet for every day of Cheltenham. And on top of that, we're paying up to seven places each way on selected races throughout the festival. I declare this a most generous offering. NoviBet. More power to you. T's and C's apply. 18 plus bet responsibly

gamblingcare.ie. They're influencing and buying up sports, he said. That's the first thing he mentioned. They're spying on us. They're influencing and buying up sports. They can have them as far as maybe they could pay for the stadiums. How about that? Instead of taxpayers.

Billions of dollars are paying. I've been reporting on this for over a decade. I started reporting on the sports stadiums over a decade. You know, it's like, look at this. These people just spend a, this state just authorized a thousand dollars. I mean, a billion dollars to, to tax their citizens with. What's that about? Can we stop this?

Going to billionaires so they can pay millionaires to play ball? Pouring billions into college endowment funds. Well, that's true. They are. And then, of course, he mentions the University of Pennsylvania Biden Center, of course. But I think that the colleges were already against us before China got involved. Do we really need China's help when we got the CIA setting up all of this curriculum to deconstruct America? The CRT, the LGBT.

Yeah, they are buying up land and farms and things like that. We should be concerned about that. But I mean, yeah, this is another one of these issues where you take some legitimate concerns and you set your hair on fire and go over the top for sensational attention. And then it takes away your legitimate concerns about Chinese influence and intentions. And it's just this is just ridiculously over the top. And Biden was playing it for all it was worth. The Republicans are playing it for all it's worth. The military industrial complex is playing it.

China's spy balloon shows the country is preparing the citizens for war. Now we're getting there. This is why, I think, all the hyper hype. The Chinese spy balloon shows us that China is preparing to go to war, said Gordon Chang. Oh, that China is preparing to go to war. Maybe it's also that the U.S. is preparing to go to war. Maybe the U.S. is preparing American citizens to go to war. They've got to get us feeling like China is a direct kinetic threat to us. You talk about the spying, of course.

But I don't think that China has a bigger interest in knowing what I'm doing than the federal government does. Do you? Do you really think they care? You know, they're spying on us with their refrigerators, they said last week. Well, of course. But the CIA is doing that, and the CIA has intentions about who they want to spy on.

And so they're preparing China's civilians for war. I think the mainstream media is doing that in America. If China were to invade Taiwan, there's not a lot of support for us going to war with China over Taiwan in the public opinion. So they've got to get public opinion afraid of China as a direct threat to the United States. And of course, all the things that you hear them complaining about with China, spying on us in the refrigerators. They could get with Huawei, they could get a hold of our 5G and they could spy on us. Well, guess who else is spying on us with 5G?

The FBI, NSA, CIA, all the agencies and the federal government, ATF, all of them. They're all spying on everything that we do. Mark says the danger was that the balloon could have been an EMP. It could have been anything. Quite frankly, I'm not worried about that. You should be worried about an EMP, but the government's not doing anything about the EMP. That's the big scandal.

They've known about an EMP. But, you know, North Korea could do that with, you know, one of their missiles that couldn't hit the broad side of a barn. All they got to do is just get it over the continental United States and blow it up. Now, you know, you could say, well, they could do it with stealth, or they could also do it with speed, as I said before, hypersonic missile. We have absolutely, it's very very very simple to go through and into the grid and to put surge protectors and things like that to protect vital things like these transformers that are only made by one or two places in the world and you got to have a lead time that is unbelievably long, like,

you know, years to get these things made. You want to try to protect some of these vital things that can't easily be replaced, but they don't do anything to protect any of that. They talk about the threat because they want to scare us, but they don't do anything to stop the threat. Guard, don't Americans realize that spying is supposed to be done by the U.S. and corporations? Exactly.

There's never a problem. Right on, guard. There's never a problem when you're spied on by an American corporation. It's only when Huawei does it for the Chinese government. And quite frankly, the U.S. government can do things like lock me up, take away my ability to speak, take away my ability to speak take away my ability to participate in the banking system which they have done already they're going to be doing it to a greater extent for more and more people based on politics and religion and other things like that

that they don't like and um the chinese government doesn't have the ability to limit my being able to use a bank or use PayPal or Venmo or any of these social media sites. But the U.S. government does. And they're the ones who are spying on us. We should be more afraid of the U.S. government spying on us than we should of the Chinese as individuals. But that's not the way they portray this, of course, for their own purposes. So he goes on to say, Gordon Chang goes on to say, the Chinese have engaged in a number of activities that violate our sovereignty. I would say the same thing in the federal government.

Some of those activities constitute acts of war. I would say that about our government as well. To us. They violate our individual sovereignty. They violate our choice. They violate the constitution that they swore to as a condition of their authority. And some of these things are acts of war. And then Gordon Chang says, and we did not respond.

And so we're getting more and more of this stuff. And guess what? When our government went to war against Americans in so many different ways, we did not respond. And these things that constitute an act of war against our God-given freedoms. So he said, we have created the conditions for history's next great war. That's right. All these things are trial balloons.

Whenever you look at, you know, Chinese want to do something, say, well, what's going to be the response? How long is it going to take them to see that there's a balloon here for whatever purposes they want to use it? And, you know, that was a trial balloon. The government is doing trial balloons to us all the time. CIA director says that Taiwan has set its sights on an invasion by 2027. In the interview that I had with Joel Skousen that I played on Friday,

actually taped the interview on Thursday night, but played it on Friday, he talked about the fact that Biden, by a gaffe, in his opinion, as somebody who watches this stuff closely, he believes that Biden's gaffe about saying we would go to war over Taiwan. He said, well, that's a U.S. policy. And it hadn't been U.S. policy. And they struggled to pull this thing back.

But then the Chinese were startled by that. Said, well, is that U.S. policy now or not? And as I said, you know, God spoke through the mouth of an ass, spoke to Bala spoke through the mouth of an ass spoke to balaam through the mouth of an ass and he's spoken through many asses since then um and biden is one of them perhaps maybe that bought us some much needed time but you know the feds would never do anything in the schools or the universities or the institutions to attack our children's morale, right? And their morals.

They would never launch a bioweapon attack on us like our own government did, right? Again, forget about the Wuhan, the Wu flu and all the rest of this stuff. Whether that was the intention or not, the real bioweapon, it turns out the actual, what we now know is that the vaccine was a bioweapon and whether the other thing was ever even intended to be that if it was developed by them. Well, we can debate that, but the reality is don't get focused on Wuhan. Focus on the bioweapons and the biowarfare and the gain-of-function stuff. Definitely shut that stuff down. I've been saying that for a decade.

But you need to not be distracted from what the real issue is. That's what this balloon is. The feds would never spy on us, right? They'd never spy on us with 5G or social media. That's what it balloon is. The feds would never spy on us, right? They'd never spy on us with 5G or social media. That's what it's all about. So they get all upset about TikTok. But I mean, come on, is TikTok, well, the content of it is even more dumbed down and degenerate than the other ones apparently.

But again, is it fundamentally any different from any of the other social media, even though it's run by the Chinese? So the Pentagon back in August of 2019, nearly four years ago, this story from USA Today, Pentagon launching drug surveillance balloons over the Midwest. They were putting up so many surveillance balloons to go to war against us, right? The war on drugs is not a war on drugs. The drugs are doing great.

There's more drugs than ever before. It's a war on people. It's a war on the Constitution. It's a war on our civil liberties. It's a war to corrupt our justice system, our police forces, all the rest of this, and create a surveillance and police state. That's what the war on drugs is. And so this surveillance police state was launched by the Pentagon back in August of 2019 over South Dakota, the Midwest. You want a Sputnik moment?

Well, here it is. Nobody paid any attention to it. They have gone to war with us multiple times, and nobody pointed out what it was about, right? We have allowed these encroachments to happen to us all the time without doing anything about it. The balloons were launched to provide, quote, a persistent surveillance system.

That's the way the people who did it described it. For, you know, narcotics trafficking. And they've done so good in terms of stopping all the narcotics trafficking, right? It was never designed to do that. And according to a filing with the FCC, Communications Commission, roughly two dozen small balloons carrying radar that could track vehicles will journey over Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Missouri before ending up in Illinois said the Guardian at the time. The special contract expires

on September 1st, the filing shows. Well, this is the one they were talking about that went public. How many of these do they do? The balloons were launched from the Baltic about 20 miles north of Sioux Falls, will travel up to a maximum altitude of 65,000 feet above ground in a radius of 250 miles, according to the filing with the FCC. The U.S. Southern Command commissioned the tests. They are carrying sensors and communications gear capable of detecting every vehicle in motion in a 25-mile range beneath the balloon.

It's unknown if the tests are connected to any active investigations or if vehicle data would be stored or passed on to other agencies. And so when Trump says that he wants to actually make the drug war an actual war. Here's the Pentagon jumping in with this four years ago, putting up these balloons to have persistent surveillance. The Sioux Falls business Raven Aerostar supplied the balloons, and Raven has also supplied balloons used by Project Loon, an experiment by Google parent company Alphabet to test beaming internet connectivity down from the balloons. The technology is capable of recording and storing all public movement over entire cities or metro areas.

That level of mass surveillance destroys any level of anonymity, said South Dakota's policy director at the ACLU. One of the few times that they have been upset about invasions of civil liberties. Usually, lately, the ACLU has taken a pass on any of that stuff. They really don't care. They were totally AWOL, as was the Libertarian Party, during an election year on the lockdown and surveillance and all the rest of this stuff. So what information is being stored? Who has access to the information? This is surveillance for law enforcement purposes. At a minimum, they said, there should be consultation and approval from local communities before the federal government subjects South Dakotans to area-wide surveillance.

Technology like this runs the risk of turning South Dakota into a surveillance state and is violating the privacy of every South Dakotan, they said at the time, in USA Today four years ago. So this is not a sneak attack. This is not a new Sputnik moment. It's funny how, you know, whether you look at the biosafety labs, I've only got one biosafety lab level four in China. That's the one at Wuhan. We got bunches of them. We have people like Fauci who

were doing those experiments and then they were told, we don't want you to do those gain of function experiments. So they took them to China, started doing them there. They took them to Ukraine and started using the labs and the things that were there from the Soviet Union. That's how the Soviet Union knows that there's bioweapons programs there because they put them there. And then the US took them over

when they took over Ukraine with a coup. So this is the sort of thing that we see over and over again, where it's designed and built in America, and then it's exported to China for a beta test site. Well, I don't know what is going on with this balloon, as some people are saying. Why with drones and with satellites do you need to have a balloon anyway? That's interesting, isn't it? Well, as it turns out, the people writing this article say, well, it's cheaper. It's stealthier because it's not going to be picked up by radars easily.

And I think that was maybe a key thing if the Chinese, um, and I think they did have, uh, this was deliberate. This is not one balloon that got away because there's a second one in Latin America happening at the same time. But I think they wanted to see what the reaction was going to be. And when they, I think they wanted to see how long it took us to even see it. Uh, but, um, it's also not necessarily easy to shoot down a balloon. I thought it was kind of funny that we got a top gun pilot.

We got a $200 million jet. We got a half million dollar missile that we shoot at it. And then Biden applauds it like it's a big feat. But, you know, back when I started looking at this back in 1998, they had, uh, Canadian, British, and American planes try to shoot down a real weather balloon that had gotten loose and was in flight paths and that type of thing. Back in 1998, they all failed. As they were saying, they're made out of helium. You don't get a Hindenburg moment with them and, uh, or it bursts into flames. And if you shoot the things, that's what, well, the other thing I looked at is like, why are they using a missile? Yeah. Well, if you shoot them with, uh,

with a bullets, they're so big that yeah, they start to leak, but it takes a long time for them to come down. Um, you know, that would be the thing be the thing. It seems to me, if they know that, that it would have been the thing to do to shoot it with bullets when it's over Montana and then let it slowly drift down to the ground so that you could recover all the equipment, see what was there. Instead, they shot it down over the sea. Anyway, everything about this is curious, but especially the way that they've manufactured a crisis. Few are currently asking the necessary deeper questions related to the timing.

Given the last major balloon crisis, says Zero Hedge, to take over the news 24-7 was a complete hoax. Remember, you had the balloon boy. You had a couple of these. You had one of them that was not a hoax where we had the balloon boy he had a couple of these he had one of them that wasn't out of hoax a guy had a lawn chair and he put balloons on it and you know it was going to come down by shooting the balloons one by one or whatever but the uh and i think i think that was real if i remember correctly but there was one in 2009 where the mom and dad said yeah our son

flew off in this uh balloon they were playing with. Turns out that it was a hoax. They wanted to get a gig on reality TV shows. So that's the last time we had one of these things. But the whole weekend this was happening. So the article on Zero Hedge quotes entrepreneur and geopolitical commentator arno bertrand who i don't know but he had some interesting takes on it um he says um when you look at this the sheer stupidity the whole thing is what stands out so here's the u.s story he summarized he does the u.s story then he

does the chinese story about this china the u. U.S. says, China sent a spy balloon over highly strategic U.S. sites. It chose to spy on these sites with big visible balloon, as being as big as multiple school buses, that anyone can see with a naked eye from the ground to demonstrate that it had the capability. Despite having a plethora of more discreet ways to spy, like satellites or stealth drones, unclear that anyone doubted that China had mastered the technology of hot air balloons and why it therefore needed to demonstrate the capability. China chose to do so on the eve of Secretary of State Blinken's visit to China, where he was invited, and hours after signaling that Blinken would

also be meeting with Xi during his visit, a high-level meeting not granted to any U.S. Secretary of State in years. Well, the Pentagon said it had been tracking the balloon for quite some time, and it wasn't the first time such an incident had occurred, but this time, for unclear reasons, it chose to do a public announcement. As a result, Blinken announced that he was postponing his China trip. Now, here is the Chinese version, and it goes something like this. I can't come back. I don't know how it works.

Yeah, yeah, it's kind of like that. So it was a fluke accident. The balloon just got away. It was a civilian airship used for research, they said, mainly meteorological purposes. Deviated far from its planned course because of strong westerlies. They had limited self-steering capability. It could only go up or down, but it can't come back. A piece in the Washington Post seems to confirm this, quoting experts in national security and aerospace,

who said the craft appears to share characteristics with high-altitude balloons used by developed countries around the world for weather forecasting, but of course also used by the United States government to have a persistent surveillance of their own citizens. The Pentagon itself said that the payload wouldn't offer much in the way of surveillance, that China couldn't collect through spy satellites, that the balloon posed no serious physical or intelligence threat. In other words, the Pentagon themselves said it would make zero sense for China to use a balloon like this for intelligence purposes when it has satellites. Kind of begs the question, then, why they decided to make a big deal out of it in the first place. Well, it was Biden who's making a big deal out of it.

And then the Republicans made a big deal out of the fact that Biden didn't shoot it down sooner, right? I'll let you decide for yourself which story makes more sense. As I know, but the sheer ridiculousness of this is absolutely obvious to anybody with an idea of common sense. Except sadly, common sense seems to be critically short supply nowadays. A real story is probably why this story became the story, right? That's the real story. Why would they do this?

Well, he says it was quite easily foreseeable that a story like this one on the eve of the trip would have made it politically very difficult for Blinken to go. So it is plausible that this whole episode is an attempt by internal U.S. forces to prevent any U.S.-China

detente. And it is also, though less likely, could be an internal Chinese idea to stop this, to shut this down. He says that is unlikely because of three things. First, China has time on its side, so it gains from reduced tension with the U.S., and there isn't any obvious faction in China who believe the contrary.

Number two, it'd be immensely risky for anybody in China to do something like this. That's undoubtedly be seen as an act of high treason with grave consequences. Number three, again, balloons like this, particularly one basically can't be steered. So to plan sending a balloon like this from China to a place over the U.S. isn't even doable in the first place. So he says it's a series of unfortunate events without malice on either side is what he believes. But it's weaponized by both sides.

So they're going to take any opportunity to scaremonger. They're going to take any opportunity to scaremonger. They're going to take any opportunity to sow division, to push for the coming wars. How many different ways? When you see what NATO has done and continues to do, how could you question whether or not this is being drummed up to create fear and loathing in the American public. Not that China is our, you know, China is absolutely aggressive. But what I'm saying is they're preparing the public for war. And you should be prepared for war, not in the sense that you want to gung-ho cheer it, but that you prepare your family for how you might be able to survive it.

Conclusion. However you see it, this story is absurdly shameful, a sad reflection on the insane times that we live in, when rather than take the time to carefully consider facts, apply reason and common sense, we instead choose as a society to incite fear and hostility. Yeah. Some comments from listeners.

Thank you, Hero May. Uh, thank you. Hero may appreciate the tip on rumble. He said that was an American spy balloon. It was just made in China. Like everything else. That's right. Yeah. Yeah.

You know, it's theirs because we got the made in China and all the electronics there. Guard. Thank you for the tip guard. I appreciate that. Um, I think the all important balloon was prepping for the big game. Yeah. And had emblazoned on its side, brought to you by Pfizer. guard i appreciate that um i think the all-important balloon was prepping for the big game yeah and had

emblazoned on its side brought to you by pfizer it was just early for the super bowl yeah that's maybe it um yeah if you want to talk about spreading a bioweapon yeah maybe it was brought to you by pfizer uh doug elkins i'm not sure you can tip on rumble he says i've been using subscribe star to send dk money um you can tip on rumble some people said that they can't tip on the mobile application you have to be on the website but i do appreciate subscribe star we don't talk enough about subscribe star that you can tip on subscribe star or you can do a monthly amount. And that really is the base that has kept this program going. And I don't do enough to thank the people on Subscribestar. We're going to take a quick break and we will be right back. Oh We'll be right back. You're listening to The David Knight Show.

Let's contrast what just happened and the outrage about all of this. We got a balloon, they say, even if it was deliberately sent by China. Let's just go with that. A balloon deliberately sent by China. Say both just go with that. A balloon deliberately sent by China. Say both Republicans and Democrats, and now the Pentagon. So they deliberately sent this without any weapons,

flying over our country. Contrast that with what we're doing. We're right at the border of Russia, for example, and putting in tanks and putting in jets and putting in talk of putting in jets and long range missiles. Do you think that, um, they don't understand that this is escalating the war there?

Do you think that our government does not want a war? Do you think that that's not what they're preparing us for? Remember, and I'll point it out again, back in March, Biden said if we were to send planes and jets, I mean jets and tanks, that would be equivalent to World War III. He said that's what it would result in. The idea that we're going to send in offensive equipment and have planes and tanks and trains going in with American pilots and American crews, just understand, don't kid yourself. No matter what y'all say, that's called World War III, said Biden in March. Thomas Massey says, yeah, that's still true.

Deploying offensive weapons against the nuclear power is a terrible idea. Mike Lee asked rhetorically last week, as this was discussed about a week ago, he said, given that one, we're giving Ukraine weapons to use against Russia, two, Russia has an abundance of nukes, and three, Russia is increasingly expressing hostility toward us, at what point should we worry that our arms deliveries might prompt Russia to attack us? And then he questioned if Congress would need to authorize arming Ukraine because of this. Everybody knows this is an act of war. Biden said it was an act of war. Mike Lee is saying this is an act of war. Do the War Powers Act, is that triggered by this?

You see all this stuff about the balloon? They flew a balloon over our country and took pictures maybe? Worst case scenario? Yeah, what are we doing? So, yeah, the pandemic was over, but now it's not. He escalated. And if you think that's not where they're headed,

that they're not headed to war, that they're not headed to unlimited escalation, well, you know, we're just going to give them the equipment. We're not going to send the troops. Oh, really? Well, here's what the former UK defense minister said about NATO. He said, we've got to send troops to Ukraine. Just checking with you there, Sir Gerald,

are you suggesting boots on the ground? I think that that is something that we now got to send troops to Ukraine. Just checking with you there, Sir Gerald, are you suggesting boots on the ground? I think that that is something that we now have to consider, Kay. Yes, I do. I feel that certainly if you were to put a NATO force in there, that would be NATO versus Russia. But Russia is the guilty party here. Russia has invaded another sovereign state. And we have declared, everybody in the West has declared that Ukraine has got to win. And we're doing a tremendous amount. Britain led the way under Boris Johnson in leading the support for Ukraine. But I do think we have to think very hard

where this is going, because at the moment, what's looking like is a stalemate, with Russia just flattening whole parts of that sovereign country, like they did in Aleppo. They're a brutal regime. They lie through their teeth. And the West has got to decide that if it is going to support Ukraine, and Ukraine does have to win, because if Ukraine does not win, where will Putin go next? We have to decide exactly how we does not win, where will Putin go next? We have to decide exactly how we're going to do this. And I think just edging slowly a bit more here, a bit more there is not the answer. Well, you know, I've seen the domino theory applied when I was younger in the Vietnam War.

That's what he's trying to push out there. And, of course, he says, you know, your starting point, depending on who you blame, could be set by the starting point that you determine. At what point do you say this began? We've talked about that over and over again. Look at that in terms of back in 2014, or did it begin last year in 2022? Either way, can't we say that we want to de-escalate this, try to save lives of Ukrainians, as well as not going to World War III? Instead of playing this blame game, he started it first. I mean, as a parent, you got to know how to handle these types of babies.

None of these people have been parents before. We just, uh, we didn't have too much of a problem with our kids, but, um, you know, when they were real little, it would come up a couple of times and we would just make them go sit in the corner and hug each other, you know, and they hated doing that, especially when they were mad at each other. That put the stop to it pretty quickly. But maybe that's what we should do. We should just take Zelensky and Putin, make them go sit in the corner and hug each other. Zelensky would probably like that.

I don't know. Anyway, former UK defense minister, you saw there, uh, hog, Hogwarts. I know his name is Haworth. I think, uh, uh,

seems to think as he uses this exact claim to justify NATO boots on the ground, that the domino theory is a thing that is involved here. He admits that there's many in the alternative media. They'd been saying for some time that Ukraine's efforts have ground to a halt. Isn't it interesting? You know, they can't make up their mind, as I said. There's one of the hallmarks of being a liar.

You can't keep your stories straight. And so depending on what they want to do in any given day, sometimes you get two different versions of what's going on a given day. Sometimes it is that Russia is collapsing, internal fighting and all the rest of the stuff, and Ukraine's going to win. And then the next thing you hear, Ukraine is going to lose unless we give them every weapon that we've got and commit troops as well, which is what he's saying. That's the key thing. Commit troops. When we do that, we are at war.

No doubt about it. And Zelensky has been pushing this from day one. He wants jets. He wants nuclear war and troops on the ground. So how is the war going? Well, Iran and Russia are integrating their banking systems to bypass the sanctions this has been going on for quite some time but it's getting more and more um established china is happy to jump in with that as well as india and other countries because we have weaponized our financial system we're going to lose that as well you know that's one of the

things about war when you go to war with people guess what? Your own stuff gets blown up. Well, we've blown up our own SWIFT system to process transactions. And so they're going to make up, they're going to create something that is immune to that kind of financial blackmail and sanctions because sanctions are an act of war, always. So Russia was partially excluded from the swift system last year. Iran has as well.

So they're going to put this together. China wants to do anything that they can to remain independent of the U S and to undermine us power and the ability to just create money out of thin air with a petrodollar is something that they're going to have to get rid of as part of a war on the United States. That's going to be one of the key things. So this has absolutely nothing to do with Ukraine. It has everything to do with deep state assets and secrets in Ukraine, says a tweet thread on Twitter that I thought was kind of interesting. Going back to the Washington Post, going back to 2005,

and this is the way the bioweapon labs in Ukraine were described at the time by the Washington Post. They said these labs here were part of a Cold War network, supplied highly lethal pathogens to the Soviet bioweapon factories. And so the U.S., the Washington Post was showing pictures of Barack Obama there at the time, standing there with the stockpiles of canisters that were bioweapons. Like I said, this is one of the reasons why the Russians know that it's there. And it's one of the reasons why it's so absurd for the Americans to deny that there's any kind of a bioweapon program there.

It was something that when the Soviet Union fell, they moved to take these things over, just like they moved to try to grab the nuclear weapons. Remember, you had a lot of concern about the various places in these satellite countries that now were no longer under the control of the Soviet Union. They were worried that these were going to fall into the hands of terrorists, that they would create suitcase nukes, dirty bombs, and things like that. So the U.S. was frantically paying the scientists and going to these different sites to grab the nuclear, but also the biological weapons. And this is what happened in the Ukraine. So when the U.S. does defensive gain-of-function directed evolution research, however, it's not called a bioweapon, right?

The U.S. took over the former Soviet labs and facilities, supposedly to destroy the stockpiles of nuclear, chemical, and biological weapons. However, Obama opened the floodgates for the deep state. They created biological weapons programs with the Ukrainian government. They established connections for U.S. oligarchs to build biolab companies in the lawless land of Ukraine. They could do anything they wanted to. All you had to do was pay off some corrupt politicians, and you could do all your dirty

work there in Ukraine. And that's why you have such a close connection, especially with the Democrats. Biden, Burisma, and all these different companies, but everything was up for grabs. And they were grabbing it in the Obama administration, and Biden was right there. Then the situation turned sour. Under U.S. supervision, Ukraine fell into civil war in February of 2014 under Obama, and the disarray of war, State Department under Hillary Clinton and the CIA took full control of Ukraine's government. Remember, Victoria Nuland?

And then as you get to the election, you got people like Alexandra Chalupa. We widely reported on that. All of the stuff about Russia and Trump was a projection of what they were doing, what Hillary was doing, what Biden and Obama had been doing. All that was a projection of what they had been doing with Ukraine. So, Nuland, who we have the recordings showing what she was talking about, spilled the beans on the fear of Russian forces getting their hands on the biological research in Ukraine. So, they started a civil war, picked their puppet to run the government, created a deep state proxy. Now, with complete control of the Ukrainian government, then the Bidens began their dirty work. Biden visited Ukraine 13 13 over 13 times, securing U.S. funding for Ukrainian oligarchs,

then used his power to fire a state prosecutor who figured out Biden's kickback and laundering scheme. Remember that? So the reasons why all your tax dollars are in Ukraine is because Ukraine is a deep state proxy controlled by the ruling families of the DNC and Soros. Most consequential of all this is their biological activity. The reason the WHO advised Ukraine to destroy all their pathogens at labs

that the mainstream media said that didn't exist, remember, is because the WHO knew Putin was looking for the bioweapons. The same WHO that created a global medical police state due to COVID-19. Big pharmaceutical, mainstream media, big tech, the intelligence community, Zelensky, WHO, the NIH, deep state politicians are all working together for the same goal, to cover up the criminal biological weapons production in Ukraine. I wonder if Pfizer's got a facility there, since they're doing gain-of-function now,

admittedly. So this is why the entities are hyper-defensive about all these things related to C-19, biological research in Ukraine. It's not because they're being philanthropic. No, it's because we are close to the proof of their crimes against humanity. This is one of the reasons why you've got this big balloon floating around, the trial balloon, if you will. As I mentioned, you think that we are ready. In the interview with Joel Skousen, we talked about this, the fact nuclear sub repaired was repaired at dock with super glue that's what a subcontractor did

fortunately they discovered that but um you know we have as as joel scousen was talking about the massive downsizing of the uk military the british army and and also just the destruction of capability for things like that, typical. So the Pentagon is saying in a classified briefing that Ukraine retaking Crimea is unlikely. And, of course, this is one of the reasons why they're justifying this, saying, well, we've got to send U.S. troops and we've got to send NATO. When they say NATO troops, what they mean is U.S. troops.

So we've got to send U.S. troops, U.S. weapons, and we've got to send NATO, and they say NATO troops, what they mean is U.S. troops. So we've got to send U.S. troops, U.S. weapons, all the rest of the stuff, because we're losing the war. And all the stuff, about 200,000 one day, the next day, 500,000 Russians are coming. The Russians are coming, the Russians are coming. Pentagon has backed the assessment of Milley in a new classified briefing issued in Lawmakers, reported in Politico.

Quote, Ukrainian forces are unlikely to be able to recapture Crimea from Russian troops in the near future, said four senior Defense Department officials to House Armed Service Committee lawmakers in a classified briefing. They said the clear indication indications relayed by these three people with direct knowledge of Thursday's briefing contents was that the Pentagon did not believe that Ukraine has, or soon will have, the ability to force Russian troops out of the peninsula that Moscow seized nearly a decade ago. A fourth person said the briefing was more

ambitious, but the point remained that Ukraine's victory in an offensive to retake the illegally annexed territory wasn't assured. And again, as I said, the aggression depends on what time frame you picked. As the British people were saying, we can't have a new domino war here. Once they get Ukraine, they're going to keep going. Well, interestingly enough, one of the more famous wars that the British had as the British Empire was in Crimea, where they were fighting the Russians because the Russians controlled Crimea. That was one where the poem, you know,

Charge of the Light Brigade, the Thin Red Line, half a league, half a league onward into the Valley of Death, throw the 500 or whatever, right? That was the Crimean War. It's a famous war. Cardigan, Lord Cardigan got very famous over that. He set a fashion for cardigan sweaters. I mean, it became, it was highly celebrated,

mainly because of his blunder. It was something that went bad. It wasn't supposed to happen, but it was famous. So I found it amazing to hear the British government talking about how Russia should not be in the Crimea. They've had that position for a long time, but Russia's held Crimea for a very long time. Again, it all depends on your starting point. Let's start talking about an end point to this stuff, right? We've got two different end points.

We've got one of them that ends in negotiated peace. The other one that ends in World War III. Which one of those ends do you want? Forget about your beginnings. Everybody can play these games about how this all began let's start talking about how it ends in ukraine general buddinoff buddinoff boris badenoff right uh this week reiterated that crimea will be returned to us i tell you more it all started in crime in 2014, and it will all end there.

So Badenoff dismissed this as a scare tactic when Moscow was saying that Crimea is a bright red line. He said, Russia is a country that you can expect a lot from, but not outright idiocy. Sorry, but it's not going to happen. Carrying out a nuclear strike will result in not just a military defeat for Russia, but the collapse of Russia. And they know this very well. So let's have a game of nuclear chicken.

We both just face each other and pedal to the metal and see who's going to turn first, right? That's the game these idiots are playing. And we're sitting in the back seat. The clear indication as relayed by these three people, a direct knowledge of Thursday's briefing contents, was that the Pentagon doesn't believe Ukraine has the ability to do this. So let's just continue on with it. Now, Thomas Massey is vowing to strip funding for Ukraine out of these must-pass spending bills.

And fortunately, this time he's not alone. He was completely alone when Trump went to spend his $3.7 trillion to bribe everybody to lock everything down. He took exception to that. Massey noted that Americans have increasingly soured on America's seemingly endless support for the Ukraine conflict and how congressional leadership moved to attach aid to must-pass spending bills, such as a continuing resolution. So Massey said if you oppose the continuing resolution or the omnibus because of the inclusion

of the Ukraine aid, you can be blamed for shutting down the government. However, he has some allies in this. Chip Roy, Ralph Norman would likely move to separate controversial items such as Ukraine aid from the must pass bills. I don't see that happening again with me and Chip Roy and Ralph Norman on the rules committee. I don't think that you got to hide these things in these votes. I think all we can ask for is a separate vote on Ukraine. So where will that be? We've got a couple of different polls. One from heart research, uh, shows public opinion in January split 50-50, roughly. 49 for

more support of Ukraine and 47 against, and that's within the margin of error. So yes, it is 50-50. A Pew Research Center survey found that 26% of Americans believe that America provides too much support for Ukraine. A six-point spike from September. So what can we do? Well, we can continue to try to tell people the truth. But there's a resolution to this. It's called peace. And anybody that doesn't want to talk about peace is a big part of the problem. We'll be right back. Thank you. Well, let's talk about casualties of war. We talked about when we had Obamacare was being pushed through and when Hillary was trying to take over health care right after her husband got elected.

Everybody was talking about if you let the government decide who gets health care and who doesn't, we're going to have essentially what's called death panels. And they all reacted to that. Oh, you're crazy. You're paranoid conspiracy theorists. That's not true. Well, we've seen them in work throughout all of this stuff. when you look at the people denied life-saving transplants because they don't get a vaccine that is going to harm their immune system, even heart patients who don't get a vaccine that we know causes myocarditis and pericarditis in a large percentage of the population.

Not everybody, but of course, that's the way these things work. You know, it only has to be a small percentage of people before you stop it under the prior rules. Not everybody's going to instantly drop dead with most of these things, most of these medications. That's why it is significant and it is not rare and disregarded when things like this happen. It's always been shutting down dangerous medicine.

It was always done on the basis of rare occurrences. And these are some of the least rare side effects that we've ever seen with any vaccines or drugs, certainly with any vaccines and with drugs as well. So they require that you take something that is going to harm you, harm your immune system, harm your heart, because you need a heart transplant or whatever. But now some of these patients are going to get their day in court. They're pushing back. That's the stage of where we are right now. We've got a lot of people who have been harmed by these baseless totalitarian policies that are now pushing back.

And that's a really good thing. This is an unvaccinated kidney and heart patient at one hospital. Both of them denied treatment. And one of them, the heart patient, is on an emergency basis, which the hospital had said was not going to, they would waive these inflexible requirements about multiple vaccinations if it was an emergency. Well, she's an emergency, and they didn't waive it. So we are at the position now with these death panels where you will live or die based on your obedience to big pharmaceutical companies.

That's how they determine your worth. on your obedience to big pharmaceutical companies. That's how they determine your worth. Are you obedient to the pharmaceutical company? Because one of these persons is old, 73 years old. The other one is young, 35, I think she is. So let's start with a 73-year-old. He needs a kidney. He's got two kidneys that are not functioning properly.

And neither one of them are at 100%. He was on dialysis. He said he had problems with diabetes and high blood pressure, and it caused complications with his kidneys. He worked real hard. They said, you're going to have to have a transplant. And they were actually interesting. I didn't know they did this. They were actually going to add a third kidney because it said since the other two are functioning,

even though not at full level, we don't want to remove them. So we'll add a third kidney. I didn't know that. They wired that in. But that was the plan. And he was working real hard to try to make sure that he made it to that. And he changed his lifestyle significantly and he got better.

And he said, go ahead and move me down on the list because I want other people to be able to get in. And then he even said, and you can put me on the list. I'll even take a cadaver kidney instead of a donation from a live donor since so many people need this. But then it got worse and he needed it and they wouldn't give it to him because he didn't want

to have the vaccine. And both of these patients, one of the things that they have about it is they have religious objections to it. They're both Roman Catholic and because it's abortion tainted, they don't want to take it. And so the hospital says, no, you're going to die. We're just going to let you die. I just don't see the logic of it, said the 73-year-old man. His name is Ross Aranko. He said, everybody knows that an organ transplant procedure requires, listen to this, the nearly complete suppression of the recipient's immune system

so that the body won't reject it. They suppress your immune system because it sees foreign tissue in there and it wants to attack it. So they suppress your immune system. He said, so then why do I need to be immunized against COVID before the operation? Because you're going to be suppressing my immune system. It doesn't make any sense.

Every transplant patient is one of the big risks that they have when they get rid of the immune system. They're vulnerable to every kind of infection. And so this would be no different. And even if this vaccine worked, which we know it doesn't, they would still be giving you something to boost your immune system and then suppressing your immune system. He said when asked if he thought the vaccine would make any difference in his prognosis, he replied, yeah, the vaccine can kill me.

To qualify for a transplant, both of my kidneys have to be functioning at 20% or less. What if the vax destroys the remaining function before the operation? If it does, I'm done. The jab does absolutely nothing beneficial for the transplant patient, he said. We all know that. Everybody admits that. It remains unclear why transplant patients cannot be tested for COVID-19 before the operation. Well, again, do you really want to do that?

That's what the article here on Zero Hedge has. Do you really want to do that? Do you really want somebody to test positive with this PCR that is fraudulently used? Magnify it by 1.1 trillion times. They see something there that you don't have an infection with. We'll stop the, the life, uh,

the, the necessary transplant because we've got a PCR test that we've misused here. Um, holistic nurse says on rumble, if we had to pick either rumble or subscribe, start to donate through, which do y'all prefer?

Um, we haven't had experience with rumble yet. Um, the, they should be about the same and, um, uh, we just haven't had any experience with it yet. So, uh, either one, uh, subscribe star, we have been using since the show began, uh, rumble. It's a fairly new thing, but it should not be any hitch, uh, getting it because they pay it out in U.S. currency instead of converting it over to crypto, I think, which is part of the problem, complications with the other one. Conthink, thank you for the tip on Rumble.

It says cannibal medicine is cannibal medicine. That's right. That's what it is. When you look at these people who say that they don't want to have this because it's abortion tainted, well, that's cannibal medicine. And that is really kind of the basis for most of what the pharmaceutical company is doing. That's why I call them the pharmakia. Anyway, it's also unclear why, given the data showing numerous fully vaccinated people have come down with COVID multiple times. In other words, it doesn't work.

Why is a shot still regarded by some hospitals as immunization? Well, I think you need to follow the money. You need to follow the money and the financial incentives that were set up by the Trump administration and continued throughout the Biden administration. Follow the money. Show me throughout the Biden administration. Follow the money. Show me the money, Jerry. 2021 survey of 200 transplant centers across the country. They said 140 replied. And of those, only half of them required transplant candidates to take a Trump shot.

Only half of them. So, um, this is not something that's universal. Uh, I would frankly, the problem is I would say I would, I would walk away from a hospital that was going to require that. I would just say these people are incompetent fools. However, if you walk away from one of these transplant programs, you got to get at the back of the list at another one somewhere else. That's the problem. That's what happened to these people. Medical questions and safety concerns aside, Barranco, a Roman Catholic, actually refused the vaccine on religious grounds. On February the 1st, he received what he perceived as an ultimatum from the University of Michigan health system in Ann Arbor.

There's an active list and a holding list. He said, at the time, I was on the holding list, and they gave me three months to get COVID shots, or they would throw me off the list entirely. I refused. They threw me off, and that's when I contacted an attorney. So again, glad that he's still alive for his own benefit, but also for our benefit. This has to be shut down. This is actual criminal abuse. When you stop and think about it, you know, it used to be one of the fundamental ethics of the medical community was first do no harm. They don't care about any of this, and these are literal death panels

that are being run for the benefit of big pharmaceutical companies. Our policy, they said, aims to protect transplant recipients from the complications of COVID-19 infection. Remember, they suppress your entire immune system. So what's the point of any of this? Do they require vaccines

against each and every other disease? No, no, it's only this special one. It's only the Trump shot that you've got to have. Now they don't go and say, well, you know, you might get diphtheria, you know, you might get jungle fever, you might get malaria. So let's, um, let's, let's vaccinate you for everything that we can think of. When was the last time you had your MMR shot? Let's do that too. Immunocompromised solid organ transplant recipients have among the highest risk of severe illness or death from COVID infection, they said. Well, so give them a vaccine that compromises their immune system even further.

At present, all of the nearly 1,000 adult patients active on our waiting list there at the University of Michigan are vaccinated with a Trump shot. So they actually have, as I said before, there's a second person here who's suing them. And them excluding her from the program is actually a violation of their written policy. So they have a policy saying, oh, you've got to get this shot, except you don't have to complete the three-phase vaccine protocol if you are critically ill. So the other co-plaintiff in this, Katie Shear, is an unvaccinated 35-year-old mother of five, a candidate for a heart transplant. She's being kept alive by a ventricular assist device

that has developed an infection. So she's already developed an infection, and she needs to have this because, and these doctors are criminally refusing to help her, even though the machine to sustain her has caused her to have an infection. They're not going to move to complete this. So she said, sadly, it looks like this is something that the court is going to have to order the lawyers representing her. And it is an organization that does this pro bono. And they said, we have emergency motions ready to go.

She said, it is in God's hand. All I want to do is God's will. After much prayer, the Lord led me not to give in, but to file the lawsuit. So I'm fighting for three things. The doctor said I have an infection that can only be cured by a heart transplant. I believe it's wrong to require someone to take a dangerous vaccine, so I want to see an end to that mandate. Most importantly, I do not want to take any vaccine or medication

that has been tainted by abortion. He said, I'm fighting for a person's right to refuse any vaccine that is associated with abortion. And so they point out the lawyers who are representing her. So some people misconstrue the case as medical malpractice suit against the University of Michigan Hospital. But it's not about malpractice. It's about due process rights.

I would say it is. I think it should be about malpractice. It certainly is malpractice. It's about due process rights. I would say it is, I think it should be about malpractice. It certainly is malpractice. It is unethical. No doubt about that. They are practicing medicine without any ethics whatsoever. We look at what is happening in Germany. We've seen a significant decline in live births, they said, nine months after the COVID jab. This is coming from two different sources. This data provided by the German Federal Statistical Office and a professor at the Leibniz University Hanover, Stefan Homburg, posted a graph on Twitter that shows the number of live births in Germany

from 2019 to 2022. He observed that there was a birth drop since January 2022, which was nine months after they began the vaccination program for younger people. What a surprise. By October 2022, the most recent data, birth rates have not recovered. The graphs that he presented are based on data from the german federal statistical office that is an official government agency it was a study that was conducted last year by the federal institute for population research there is a strong association between the onset of vaccination programs and the fertility decline nine months after this onset in Germany and Sweden.

So that was noticed by the Federal Institute for Population Research drawing on the German government database. And now this professor has made the same point. And this is one of the first things that Michael Yadin, who had been a vice president for research at Pfizer, had said. It's going to drastically affect fertility. How did he know that? Well, again, I think that there is a very interesting coincidence here that this technology, some of the same technology that was used, they actually contracted with the same people for the delivery system that had come up with a vaccine to sterilize wild animals

that are out of control, deer or the wild horses out west, things like that, to sterilize them rather than culling the herd so they give them this spay vac is what they call it and the delivery mechanism that is there um the nanotech that is there essentially coats the outside that you know this this accumulates in the ovaries and it coats the outside of the eggs to keep them from getting fertilized. And it's already been shown that the greatest concentration of this mRNA spike stuff, the spike, is in the ovaries, second only to the spleen. But the two of them are far and away above everything

else. I forget what the unit of measurement was, but it was something like 23 goes in the spleen, which filters the blood, and it was 12 was the, again, I forget what the units were, but the concentration level was 12 in the ovaries. For every other part of the body that they looked at, it was less than one. In many cases, it was a minuscule amount under one. So we know this concentrates in the ovaries, and we know that the mechanism that they're using that they contracted with the same company that was producing this for the SpavacAC. We know how that works.

Perhaps that's why Michael Yadin was concerned about it. An op-ed piece on Newsweek, which is what is interesting. This is from Kevin Bass, who is a PhD and MD student. He's got a master's degree. He's working on a PhD as well as a medical doctorate at medical school. And they let him put up on Newsweek an op-ed piece excoriating the so-called science behind all of this stuff. He said, I staunchly supported the efforts of public health authorities when it came to COVID-19. I believe that the authorities responded to the largest public health crisis of our lives

with compassion, diligence, scientific expertise. I was with them when they called for lockdowns, vaccines, boosters. I was wrong. We in the scientific community were wrong. And it cost lives. I can see now that the scientific community, from the CDC to the WHO to the FDA and to their representatives, repeatedly overstated the evidence, misled the public about its own views and policies, including on natural versus artificial immunity, school closures,

disease transmission, aerosol spread, mask mandates, vaccine effectiveness, and safety. Across the board. Look, whenever you got a cabal of experts who say, you'll do what we say, and we're not going to show you the data, and we're not going to debate anything with you, and anybody who's skeptical is going to be purged out. That is not science. That is the antithesis of science. That was what was in effect when Francis Bacon came up with a scientific method.

We see this in climate. We see it in COVID. Always the same thing. And it's, um, it was very clear what they were doing. Um, even I think it should have been clear. And it was very clear what they were doing. Even, I think, it should have been clear to anybody who is a scientist,

it should have been clear that this was all political from the very beginning. But especially if you had seen what they had done year in and year out with the annual flu shot, they ran the same scam, except much bigger and scarier. It was always a fear program to sell the annual flu shot. And there was never any chance that the annual flu shot was going to actually do anything. Conservative thinker, ConThink, thank you for the tip on Rumble. He says, how is a transplant not cannibal medicine well it can be donated by adults who are you know going to um and and it's again i i'm not

going to defend the all the practices that happen in transplants i've said before that i think there's a lot of questionable stuff that is happening with brain death. They've redefined brain death so they can get organs. I would not recommend anybody to put themselves on an organ donor's list because I think they'll kill you for your organs. And so I understand what you're saying. However, you know, certainly when you look at a kidney, somebody can donate a kidney

and not die from it. And that was one of the most outrageous things. The first time we saw this, there was a woman who her kidneys were not functioning. She was going to die. She had a friend that she met and had known for about a year from a Bible study, and they were a match and the friend wanted to donate the kidney to her other friend and they would not allow that. They said, both of you got to be vaccinated.

Now she was not in any kind of a program that was going to be taking organs from people who were brain dead or people who had recently died or any of that kind of stuff. And again, when we talk about the transplants coming from people for anything other than a kidney, I understand if you've got moral issues with that because there is a fuzzy line, to say the least, about how they determine whether somebody is dead or not. And they're changing, they're fuzzing up that line quite a bit more. And I reported on that a few weeks ago in terms of how they define brain death. But when you have a situation like a kidney and somebody is donating their kidney specifically for that person, I don't have a problem with that. That can save somebody's life.

What I have a problem with are the death panels who say, no, you're not going to be allowed to do that unless you bow the knee to Pfizer and Moderna and to Trump. More important than any individual error was how inherently flawed the overall approach of the scientific community was during this witch hunt we just went through. He says it resulted in thousands, if not millions, of preventable deaths. And that's very true. Denying treatment to people, safe and effective treatment. They could have stopped this at the beginning. The whole thing was a manufactured crisis.

They kill people by denying treatment to them because the whole point was what had been practiced for 20 years. We lock everybody down until we rush out a vaccine. And that was clear. That's what they'd practiced since Dark Winter. We created policy based on our preferences. Then we justified it using data. Then we portrayed those opposing our efforts as

misguided, ignorant, selfish, and evil. We made science a team sport. And in so doing, we made it no longer science. Again, science is always about skepticism. Any criticism, you should be able to answer it, or it's not science. A pandemic policy was created by the razor-thin sliver of American society who anointed themselves to preside over the working class, members of academia, government, medicine, journalism, tech, and public health.

These people who are highly educated, I would say they are too highly educated, and privileged, he said, from the comfort of their privilege. This elite prizes paternalism, as opposed to average Americans who laud self-reliance and whose daily lives routinely demand that they reckon with risk. Well, that's an interesting take on it. I don't necessarily agree with that.

I think it was not paternalism. I think it was naked self-interest. All these people, it is a club and you ain't in it. And they want to, they know what the rules are. Just like all these people who've been been injured doctors who have been injured and, you know, in private conversations with other doctors, you know, the, the ones, first of all, most of them would not treat the injured nurses and doctors.

The orthopedic surgeon who had his career ended because it gave him tremors that he can't stop. Most of them would just, they knew what it was, but they wouldn't even talk to him or treat him. He found one doctor. He said, yeah, I'll try to help you. We know what this is. Don't talk about it. They're scared to death. So it's not paternalism. It's naked self-interest. So we severely judged lockdown critics as lazy, backwards, even evil. We dismissed as grifters those who represented their interests. We believed misinformation energized the ignorant. We refused to accept that such people simply had a different, valid point of view.

So instead, we've witnessed a massive ongoing loss of life in America due to the distrust of vaccines and the health care system. So this is one of the doctors who say, you know, the other vaccines are good. You should get them. No, this is a good thing to get people to distrust the vaccines. We'll talk about that more in a second here. My motivation for writing this is a good thing to get people to distrust the vaccines. We'll talk about that more in a second here. My motivation for writing this is simple. He said, it's clear to me that for public trust to be restored in science,

scientists should publicly discuss what went right, what went wrong during the pandemic and where we could have done better. But he says, it's okay to be wrong. Admit where one was wrong and what we learned, but I really haven't seen this from the people who say, okay, I was wrong. I haven't seen this even from the political commentators,

right? Scott Adams, for example, still has not learned anything. He says, all right, you know, you were right.

I was wrong. You got lucky. Uh, you came at this because you think everything the government does is, you know, got an agenda with it. And you're wrong, but you got lucky this time. You know, he doesn't think that, he still doesn't understand all the tells that were there. He won't admit to them.

Scott Adams, the Dilbert cartoonist, who at the very beginning of this said, we're two weeks into it, said it's getting more and more difficult to tell the sociopaths from freedom lovers or freedom lovers from sociopaths. Anybody talked about freedom, about informed consent? Oh, you're a sociopath.

That's what we've seen everywhere. And these people have not really come to terms with it. They haven't gone back. And, you know, when Tom Woods said, I'm sorry, I was wrong, you know, when he went back, he didn't talk about all of the different things from a non-medical standpoint that were giant red flags. All the stuff about the germ games, all the rest of the stuff. He didn't talk about the fact that, as a libertarian, that the big, bright red lines into our liberty were crossed.

Whatever happened to live free or die, doesn't that apply to germs as well? As to bullets? I said it from the very beginning. I said, I will take my chances with this stuff. I didn't think it was anything other than a statistical lie, like they'd always used for the flu shots. But, you know, we didn't know. And this is the area where they had their only biosafety level 4 lab.

We didn't know at the time, but I said, look, I would rather die than live under the kind of society they're trying to set up with these lockdowns. And that society and that setup is still there 1,061 days later. Nothing has changed. The emergency order is still there. All these powers are there. As a matter of fact, the World Health Organization is changing the rules to make their declarations

legally binding on different countries. They're leaving in what they got, and they're moving to the next stage. And we've got to understand, the reason I harp on this is because we've got to understand this battle has not been won. This battle is not over. We've had, or the war, I should say, we've had a victory in a battle. This is not the end. It's not even the beginning of the end.

It's just the end of the beginning. You better see it that way. Because if you don't, you're going to let your guard down. That's one of the reasons why you've got people like Leanna Wynn coming out and saying, well, I was wrong, and we should not have done this, and so forth. You look at that and say, okay, good. We've won. They understand it was wrong.

They admit they're wrong. No. No, that's not the case. As a matter of fact, I'll give you a Civil War. Since these people want Civil War so badly, I'll give you a civil war, since these people weren't civil war so badly. I'll give you a civil war analogy. The first battle of Manassas, the North called it Bull Run, because they focused on rivers wisely. But that first battle was hard fought and nobody really took it seriously, just like we're not taking this Russian thing seriously. People showed up like a picnic to watch what was going to happen.

They were horrified by the slaughter that they saw. And things were going for the North until Stonewall Jackson took his stand took his stand and, uh, things began to turn around at that point. And it became a route and, um, you know, they literally did run, you know, bull run. They were running back to Washington and Stonewall Jackson had turned the tide of battle. So we've got to pursue it. We can stop this right now, put an end to it. And they could have, if they will listen to him, probably would have been a decisive victory. Washington was left undefended. But they decide, no, we're going to just do this as a defensive thing. We're not going to be aggressive or whatever reason they decided. They didn't want to pursue it.

We're at that kind of a situation right now. You've got the vast majority of people are waking up, a sleeping giant that has awakened, and yet not willing to press this to conclusion right now. And if we don't, we are going to have this come back on us in the worst way. We'll be right back. You're listening to The David Knight Show. All right, let's talk a little bit about finance and dollars, gold, CBDC. We have, there is something that is happening over the weekend. I'm trying to find the article here. I think it's in the mail section here, but I but I, I don't see it right here. Um, we will, I'll, I'll find it and I'll tell you where it is happening. It's beginning today.

There is a seminar that was sent to me by a listener and, uh, James Corbett is the only name that I recognize on it, but I do trust, um, content that I've seen from James Corbett. And they were saying, it's not just a seminar, but it is some training as to, you know, it goes for a period of five days. It's a free seminar. So I'm going to find that. I'll get it to you in this program. But as we look at what is coming out,

there's been something that's been going around. A lot of people sent this to me saying that the European Central Bank is preparing for bail-ins and banking collapse, according to a whistleblower that may or may not be true. I just got to say that the source of that, that I have seen is Greg Reese from InfoWars. And frankly, I don't trust his reporting anymore than I trust Stu Peters, uh, or Alex reporting. I've seen Greg just jump over the top on one thing after the other. I had people contact me when I was still there. So I'd, you know, he's, he put out this report,

says that Jehovah of the Bible, of the Old Testament, was a space alien and all the rest of this. I mean, you know, had a lot of people very upset with me. It's like, well, I can't do anything about that. I'm not the editor there. I don't control what gets featured. It was sensational and it was featured. I mean, there's some other good reports from some other reporters there that are Christians who understand what's going on.

But, you know, and it's not just that report. There's a lot of stuff that happened through the pandemic. So we know what is, whether there are bail-ins or not, I've played for you months ago. Our own FDIC, the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation, that guarantees the insurance that was put in because of all the bank runs and the collapses and the Great Depression.

They had got involved in speculative stuff and caused the banks to fail. So they said, all right, we're going to insure the deposits to make sure that people have confidence it's going to still be there. We'll do federal insurance on it. But we're also going to ban you from getting involved in speculative things. The Glass-Steagall Act, that was lifted by Clinton. And so they've been involved in speculative stuff. And now we're looking at possibly bank collapses with these bubbles that have been created that are going to be bigger than the FDIC can handle. And I played for you clips of the FDIC saying in a meeting, we could have bail-ins.

That's here in America. That's not in Europe. We, we could have bail-ins. That's here in America. That's not in Europe. We might have to have bail-ins. We can't tell the public what's going on with us because they would freak out and they would do runs on the bank. And so that is in the cards everywhere. Everyone needs to understand that is truly the risk. But not everybody understands what is happening to the dollar either. Again,

you know, Darren Beattie at Revolver has written a series of articles talking about how he doesn't think that the petrodollar is threatened whatsoever. He thinks that zero hedge got it wrong. A lot of economists have gotten it wrong. He says, sorry, zero hedge, for better or worse, the US dollar will remain the king of currencies. So I don't know what he is basing that on when you have the finance minister of Saudi Arabia, beginning of the month at Davos said, well, the US dollar is just going to be one of the many currencies that we deal with. That is by declaration, the end of the petrodollar. That was, if you understand what the petrodollar was, if you understand Bretton Woods too,

that was the basis of it, that the U.S. dollar was going to be the sole way in which Saudi Arabia priced oil. And if you don't understand that, you don't even understand what the petrodollar is. So it's there. The only issue is how long that's going to take for that to come to fruition. Is it going to happen slowly? Well, it'll happen gradually, and then it will happen suddenly. That's the way these things happen. So the issue is that if you look at everything about the financial system, it's not just the petrodollar, but it's also the SWIFT system, which because we weaponize that with sanctions, you have Russia, Iran, China, all working on how to escape that system.

There isn't anything in the system from any standpoint. If you look at the central banks and how thoroughly bankrupt they are, they understand gold. As I was talking to Tony last Thursday, he's like, why are the central banks grabbing so much of it and the general public doesn't really understand what's going on?

Well, because the general public just can't imagine a different world where the petrodollar is not in place. But it has been announced that it's not going to be supported any longer. So the reality of all of this has got to set in on people to understand what is there. But the real issue is the central bank digital currencies and what we can do to push back against that. And so we're going to take a quick break here.

I'm going to find this article because I want to tell you where this is. But if you want to do something about it personally, if you want to make the same kind of preparations that central banks are doing, go to davidknight.gold. That's what Tony Arderman has set up. That'll take you to wisewolf.gold. And I highly recommend, Tony, if you want to buy gold or silver as a hedge against this collapsing monetary system, but even more so as a hedge against the central bank digital currency, which is a plan for slavery.

This is why they spend so much time talking about slavery 160 years ago, because they don't want you to see the system of slavery that they have designed and are rapidly implementing on us, and that is the central bank digital currency. So we'll take a quick break, and we'll be right back. ¶¶ In a world of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. You're listening to The David Knight Show. All right, I did find it. Here it is. This was sent to me by a listener, Jay.

He said, maybe you can cover this on your show. This is something by someone named John Bush, who I don't know. He's got a podcast or a radio program like this. And so he lays out in this the threat of central bank digital currencies. Again, spy on everything that you have to program your money to expire, to be able to instantly take everything from you and leave you penniless. If the government doesn't like you to tax you directly, to freeze your funds,

to disable your accounts, to confiscate the money. And so he said, there's a, um, in this, this is about a free five day CBDC opt out challenge. Uh, this is a free thing.

And again, you can find it. Let's see, where can you find this here? Freedom Cell Network is what they say this is. And it is a method for buying and selling goods and services outside the existing financial system. Whether this is the right approach or not, I don't know the other people that are there besides James Corbett. I don't know the guy that put this together. But we need to understand that we've got to operate outside the system.

We've got to operate locally. And so it goes live from today through Friday. Here it is. The livefree.academy is where you can find that. And John Bush is there. So again, it's free. He said it's not simply delivering information. Every day they're going to have some actionable items. So I just put that out there for your information. I don't get any help from them. I do get help from Tony Arteman. That's why I set up davidknight.gold. But I want you to know about all the different things that are out there. Again, Tony Arteman. That's why I set up a David Knight dot gold, but I want you to know about

all the different things that are out there. Again, Tony's got a community that he's putting together there with the, uh, Wolfpack. You can set it up to buy gold gradually and as little as $50 a month as a gradual program to build a supply there. And he is also working on setting it up so that it's a community there where people can share information with each other as well. While I'm in the mail here, I have another listener, Russell, who sent this to me. Alaska state civil rights case is about to ignite. Perhaps this event has already caught your attention.

Well, it hadn't. The Alaska News source has broken the story of a public school principal who was forcefully detained, restrained, and injected with psychotropic drugs, all based on a false court document. See, this is the problem. This is something that has been going on to one degree or the other, and it's something that is a hallmark of totalitarian societies. And this is one of the reasons why the red flag laws that were pushed by Trump, just take the gun and do the due process later. Well, unfortunately, many times they take the person,

and they do the due process later as well. So this is the article that he sent. He said, visualize yourself sitting comfortably in your home. Just before noon on a Wednesday, you have a family member as a guest. Since you're a Christian conservative, maybe you've got, you know, you're watching Fox News or whatever. An Alaska State trooper knocks at the door. And the trooper tells you that he's at your home for a welfare check. A few hours later, you now have two family members in the house and there's another knock at the door.

Now there are two troopers and one of your family members asserts that he or she has a court order to have you detained and sent for psychiatric evaluation. It's an open question whether the alleged court order was ever produced or even existed, but the troopers accepted the authority of such an order with and without resistance, and without resistance, rather, have you led away into custody to a hospital for psychiatric evaluation. You endure the indignity of having your personal possessions confiscated,

being stripped of your clothing and dressed in a hospital gown. A psychotropic drug is administered to you you and you're detained for three days. Then the whole system says, never mind, we got it wrong. Oh, really? Then it gets really interesting. The troopers try to verify the alleged court order and the court system refuses, citing confidentiality, which is BS, because telling another law enforcement agency something isn't a public disclosure.

Then the court system issues a statement to the media saying it never issued such an order. Courts couldn't tell the Department of Public Safety, but it could tell a reporter at a local TV station. So first, something went badly wrong. I spent a day on the phone, he says, with my old buddies at the Department of Public Safety. None of us could think of a circumstance in which a civilian would have a court order that could result in somebody being placed in custody. Those sorts of orders go from the hand of an officer to the court to the hand of an officer of the law. We don't even know for sure that the troopers actually ever saw the alleged court order.

So, just on the hearsay basis of a court order, they put this guy in for three days in an insane asylum, gave him drugs. There is something going on here that we don't know. The tell for me, he said, is that the court system went to the media rather than to the Department of Public Safety to reveal that there was no warrant. This sort of thing can happen at fairly low levels in government. Some administrative something or other could have decided that he or she didn't like a school principal coming out as an activist Christian. I'm thinking, however, that some family members share those sorts of political views and use their connections to the court system to see how the system can be weaponized and see how little due process we really have anymore. If there's any doubt of that, that was removed with the lockdowns of the last several years.

Another listener, Noel, says medical tyranny continues its relentless march into our sovereign states and lives um and so again uh talking about death panels um you know mandating vaccines uh as a part of the death panel i mean isn't that part of it regardless of what's going on with the transplants um isn't that just the mandating of vaccines? Isn't that a death metal? They've decided that you'll have this, and they don't care to look at what has transpired with anyone who is reported into the database.

It's just a never mind. We could care less. Could not care less, rather. Let's take a look at, as we're talking about what is happening in our system, and we've talked about the egg situation several times, but this is a new take on this. This is coming from someone who has backyard chickens. This is a tweet thread from someone named Sun, S-U-N, Sun Optimist.

He says, my wife went to a local egg supplier. She spoke with a staff member who's among the egg suppliers. Their hens haven't been laying for months, and then she switched the feed, and it's now back to normal production. Well, it's kind of interesting. He said, some people will say, well, it's a seasonal thing because it's wintertime, and I'd slack off with this.

But he said said this is something that happened before winter and um he said um and with a change of feed this resolved itself during winter so you know they say well sometimes uh because it's winter or they might be molting or something like that. They said, no, this happened. The production happened. They stopped before winter and it got fixed in the middle of winter as soon as they changed feed. They said, then there's the avian flu outbreak that they're using as cover to

kill millions of chickens. You should understand what they're doing with the avian flu. They're using PCR tests, right? Oh, look, we got a case here. We're going to, it's the same thing that China did locking down tens of millions of people because you got a case from a PCR test that is invalid. And now they're going to kill tens of millions of chickens in different locations on the basis of a PCR test.

So the fraudulent PCR test, as he said. This is in addition to the outrageous price surges caused by the fuel price increases. He says, the reason this makes me optimistic, however, is because we now have strong evidence that centralized suppliers are contaminating chicken feed supplies to vanquish domestic and commercial food production. This is nothing less than a deliberate act of war against civilians. Well, I would disagree that that's strong evidence. That is certainly something that needs to be taken a look at, and we'd have to have

more than just one case of that. But I think that is interesting that they saw that. And there certainly, as he points out, there has been a history of things being done. Large corporations, centrally controlled corporations that are allied with the government. He said, many of us are aware of the compromised regulatory apparatus in our government. The FDA does not stand as a watchdog or guardian of the food supply.

So he said, they've been compromising food, water, air, medicine, consumer products for years. And, of course, what happens is you get loyal, weak, dependent consumers while they have growing profit margins. Now, if this sounds cynical, remember, I pointed out 2018, Goldman Sachs was lecturing the pharmaceutical company, specifically the entire industry, using as a specific case Gilead Pharmaceutical, the people who produced remdesivir. They had come up with a drug that had stopped a strain of hepatitis, cured it, and Goldman Sachs was lecturing the pharmaceutical industry, said, look at what happened. They made billions of dollars the first year,

then it rapidly fell to zero because they cured it. That is not our business model. We want to treat disease, not cure it. We don't want it to go away. We want chronic conditions that the people have to keep getting the medication for relief. It's very cynical. And, you know, that is their business model. Quite frankly, you can see it.

They say, look, you know, just to remind you what our business model is here. That's Goldman Sachs lecturing the pharmaceutical industry. And you can find that back in 2018. A lot of articles were written about that at the time. Entire books have been written on the corporate and political scams that have robbed and sickened the world. But until recently, this obvious reality was hiding in plain sight. While the average consumer went on with their lives, depending on the advice of experts. He says a related aside to this widespread

red-pilling of the people of the world is the vaccine. He said, friends of mine who once dismissed me for being suspicious of vaccines have had a change of heart on the issue in the wake of the mRNA disaster. They're asking the question that I

once posed to them. If you can't trust the pharmaceutical companies on this, then why would you trust them on that either? And it's not just the pharmaceutical companies. It's also their partners, the FDA, CDC, the NIH, the federal government. It took widespread sudden injury and death to cause them to question all pharmaceuticals and to question vaccination theory in general. Again, I just think it is amazing when you look at these plans for the smart city prisons

where they not only get everybody locked up in the cities where they can't go anywhere, but to keep you pacified, they say, well, have everything that you need within, and it varies depending on location. It might be five-minute radius, 10-minute, 15, as much as 20 in Scotland. But the first or second thing that they always mention in all of these articles is access to a pharmacy. And what does that say about our society, that that's become now the number one or two things that you need?

It's absolutely insane, I think. Lori Light, many have switched from chicken feed to goat feed for now. Someone is testing tractor supply chicken feed in their lab. Well, that's good. That's good. Yeah, I think something is really wrong. I think key thing is this PCR test. They could do all this without any of the chicken feed stuff with just a PCR test.

They could use that as a basis to cull everything, which we know that they want to starve us. We know that they want to take away all this food. So again, if you're going to be independent, you even need to take a look at what your feed is to make sure that you're getting clean stuff and chicken scraps, you know, food scraps and things. Although the food that you eat is probably, as he's pointing out here, is adulterated as well.

Chicken groups on Facebook, says NN, are reporting the same thing about the chicken feed. I'm thinking tractor supply store feed. Only the free range chickens laid. Oh, there you go. The cooped up ones fed by hand. They all stopped laying. There was a rogue chick who escaped and then she kept laying.

Wow. That's important. Lori Light says global is poisoning baby formula decades while supporting baby powder. Don't touch our chickens. That's important though. Lori Light says global is poisoning baby formula decades while supporting baby powder. Don't touch our chickens. That's right. That is true. I mean, if we look at what they've done, that same game that they played with the baby food, going in and we talked about how shutting down that factory, they didn't have a logical basis for doing that. If you go back and you look at the detail and Reason magazine had a very good detailed argument about what had really happened. You know, there was

supposedly some contamination of baby food and you had some babies that got sick. I don't know if one of them died, but they said that they didn't find any of that in the factory. That particular bacteria was not found in the factory. And they said they had different strains. There were like three or four cases nationwide. And when they looked at them, they were all different strains of bacteria. In other words, it was not a common source. And many other things indicated that it wasn't even a problem with that factory.

And they shut the entire thing down. While you could still go across the border to Mexico and get whatever you need, just like you can go across the border to Mexico to get eggs. Now, I don't think that this is a coincidence. Entire books have been written on the corporate and political scams that have robbed and sickened the world, but they've been hiding in plain sight. He said, you may not be surprised to learn that our food is literally poisoned as well. It may be too much for some to believe that such a level of malice was possible.

That is until now. That's what he's saying. People can now see with what has happened with the pharmaceutical companies, Pfizer, Moderna, Fauci, all these people, they can now see that level of malice. That was the big issue. Nobody could believe that. And that's why I said, that's what makes it possible for these people to get away with, literally get away with murder.

Again, going back to somebody like Ted Bundy, they couldn't believe that a good looking, charming, intelligent person like that could be somebody who would kidnap, rape them, and kill them. And so I said, our problem is that normal people don't see how these psychopaths operate. Marith says a very salient point, people get upset about horrific tests on beagles, but no problems about doing it to babies. That's right. Both man, Jack, that's really worrisome is the mRNA inoculations that'll be going to livestock. Yes, that's right.

Yeah. It's going to be everywhere. Uh, and you know, they're talking about how they can, uh, do it with a spray. Yeah. A nasal spray. Uh, how easy is it going to be for them to put it into just everywhere? Ubiquitous. It is truly amazing.

Anyway, he says, when I consider the future, I no longer have predictions, but I see a fork occurring, a path of total domination or the alternative path of total freedom. And I think this is going to be the case. This is typical of a fourth turning when we stop and think about it. Unfortunately, most of the time, it goes down toward tyranny. As I've said before, we've had the previous four turnings that we've had here in this country, and Strauss and Howe went back for 500 years during British history

because British and American history were synced up. Now, globally, everybody is on the same cycle. But going back to the Great Depression or World War II, that was the previous one. Prior to that, Civil War and the Industrial Revolution. Prior to that, the American Revolution. And I would even include the French Revolution in that as well. And you can see one of them went well, the other one did not, right? And France had the

Jacobin socialists and it got very bad. But it was the same general ideas, but in a different direction. Os Guinness talks about the differences between, he's got an excellent essay about the difference between the American Revolution and the French Revolution, separated by 13 years. And it's all the difference in the world, although they came from the same general response to what was happening. And so we're in a fourth turning right now. This is going to be a big one. And we're either going to move up towards freedom or we're going to move down towards tyranny. That's why we need to understand the time that we're in. And he is optimistic that what we've been through for these last three years has been

an awakening process. Well, I hope that is the case. I tell you, I had basically just given up on people ever waking up. It's like, how much more obvious can it be when they've got us locked down? But that has turned now. All of the institutions have now been shown as corrupt, but will they spin this and give us institutions that are going to be even worse and designed to enslave us? Or will we wake up? Well, here's what he has to say.

And I think he's spot on about this. You know, regardless of whether the chicken feed is adulterated, we got a lot of anecdotal evidence about it. It's not just this particular case. But he says, we got not fear for what could come, but we need to be in prayer and fully submitted to God. He said there have been expressions of transformation and power at times, but the majority of Christendom today could exist without any supernatural demonstration or experience. Much of it is totally cerebral, but that's not the expression of faith that will help in the days ahead.

Public awakening could cause things to steer in a better direction, one that favors family, neighborhood, localism, and so on. Our enemies don't want us to be self-sufficient. They don't want us to be connected with other people. And they don't want us to have sufficient means to help one another. That's why they have to impoverish us. That's why they have to separate us with their lockdowns and their social distancing and the rest of this stuff.

Our enemies lose power when their methods become obvious to people who are once in the dark. This is why they are so zealous to censor content. That is an act of fear. Censorship is an act of fear. And it is something that we all look at and don't want to see happen, but you have to understand the very basis of it. These are people who are desperately afraid of the truth coming out. And that is their weakness. And that's what we should take courage in. He says, because now they will take actions to defend themselves. It starts with refusing an injection

or replacing the chicken feed, but it doesn't end there. Our enemies won't take kindly to being exposed. And they will act desperately. That is when true evil is unleashed, and we haven't even tasted that yet. Now is the time to cultivate family, community, and deep fellowship with God. As a matter of fact, I was looking through a book that I got at Christmastime. It was a collection of prayers from Puritans. And in it, it's called The Valley of Vision, and they had one for New Year's. It said, as I look ahead, I don't know what is going to be coming up.

It could be a great year. It could be a year of challenge and testing. It could even be a year that I die. But he says, as I look to the future, I trust you who has brought me to this point. You have controlled my past, and you control my future. And even if it is the worst case, even if it is death, for those of us who know God, we know that it will be a better thing for us, not the transition part of it. But he says, to finish up with Sun Optimist,

he said, things could move suddenly to our favor, but even if they don't, because the enemy retaliates, God is able to provide, to protect, and to equip us supernaturally. There will be no room for dead theology, but for people who live and breathe the miraculous. And I saw this. This is a quote from Bill Maurer. and it says, to most Christians, the Bible is like a software license. Nobody actually reads it. They just scroll to the bottom and click, I agree. Yeah, that's the problem. That's the problem, and that's not going to get us through these difficult times.

You better have a rock, and you better understand why you believe what you believe. Bill Maurer is right about the shallowness of most Christians. That's why it's so easy to deceive. On Rumble, thank you very much. YJ72, thank you for the tip. I just don't get the people who say, I don't know why to believe, yet still going along with the mainstream narrative. If they lie about something, will they tell you the truth the next time? That's right, they won't. mRNA is in our food supply, bugs and mRNA. Says NN. We'll be right back. Decoding the mainstream propaganda. It's The David Knight Show.

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 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 please share the information and links you'll find at the David night show.com. Thank you for listening. Thank you for sharing. If you can't support us financially, please keep us in your prayers. The David night show.com. Well, I wanted to read this letter because this is on the topic we were just talking about.

We did, this is, Karen got the mail that just came in over the weekend. She was just telling me that most of the checks, all the checks that we got except for one were in January. Those were not counted as part of the gas gauge that we closed out the month on. So they'll be counted as part of this month. So, um, just to let you know, but I wanted to thank David and Mary.

Thank you so much for the generous contribution. And they had an interesting letter. I'll just read it to you. My husband and I really appreciate your program, especially, uh, your biblical perspective on current events. We agree.

The gospel is the only hope for now in eternity, but amazes us is how very few born-again believers see the signs of the times and prepare accordingly. We're in our early 70s, lived in Houston for 40 years, now retired on three acres in central Oklahoma. For the last four years, we've worked hard to build a mini farm, including a new barn with efficiency apartment, remodeled small 1,000 square foot cottage, 16 raised garden beds with drip irrigation, orchard, small fish pond, chicken coop with wire roof, rainwater collection systems, and large dug down greenhouse called a wallopini. Lord willing, our future projects will be a solar system and a root cellar. We'll send pictures of our mini farm this spring.

Good luck with your prepping in Tennessee. We are so far behind. We had somebody when Travis was on with Nights of the Storm, somebody asked, so what have you guys done for prepping? And it's like, we moved. We moved away from Austin. That's basically it. I know a couple of farmers and that's it.

We got a lot to do. Uh, but anyway, um, uh, thank you so much for the support and for the encouragement and good luck with your prepping. Sounds like you're well on your way. And that's, that's what everybody needs to be doing. And, um, it needs to be a priority. It has to be more of a priority for us as well. And let's talk about the vulnerability in so many different areas. and it needs to be a priority. It has to be more of a priority for us as well.

And let's talk about the vulnerability in so many different areas, not just in, you know, pick one, any of them. But here's Italy now. National outage of Internet and reports of a global ransomware attack. Now, when you look at this and you go back to, again, what they tried to just dismiss is it's just some things happened, you know, with the NOTAM system and shut down all flights from, you know, late at night to about 9 o'clock in the morning in the U.S. This is the notification system about incidents that might be, uh, that might affect people taking off or landing in

an airport or something that you have to watch out for that's in the general area. Uh, this is a system that's been around since the 1940s. It used to be verbal, then they automated it and they've got all, you know, all these messages that are going out to everybody. And it, uh, so it's a problem in and of itself. But the whole thing went away. And so when it went away, they just shut down all the flights in the entire U.S. And then after it came back from late, I think it was a Tuesday night, late Tuesday night, let's say until about 9 o'clock the next morning, they got it back.

And then an hour and a half later, the same thing happened to Canada's system, which is independent of the U.S. system. Same MO exactly. So I said, this is some kind of a ransomware, could be pirates, it could be some state actor. But it was definitely a hack. And now we see this happening in Italy. Nationwide shortage. Reuters said that Italy's National Cybersecurity Agency warned about the ransomware attack targeting servers worldwide. They added that this was on a massive scale.

Well, it turns out that, you know, for a period of time, it was all shut down and now they've been able to restore it. As many people who were observing this noted, remember it was Italy that was the first country outside of China, the first country to be shut down with the lockdown stuff, right? First ones to fall for that. And now here we are three years later, and this is something that has been talked about and emphasized at Davos.

We're all going to lose all the internet and everything. Well, it happens first now at Italy. So the question is, why is this happening? These attacks are getting more frequent and they're getting bigger. And they are big attacks on our infrastructure because it's going to shut down not just your ability to access information on a personal level, but so much stuff is dependent on this, that it is such a vital part of our infrastructure. All you have to do to shut down all airplanes is just to take away one part of the information

system that they rely on. The same way we saw with Colonial Pipeline, they were able to shut that down. There wasn't an attack on the pipeline itself. They went after the accounting software. And so the people running the thing said, well, you know, the accounting software gone or locked up or whatever it was that they did with it. They, we can't make any sales to anybody. And so they turned off the system. You know, a lot of people thought, well,

you got to have this, this hack somehow shut down the flow of oil. No, they attack it by going after the accounting system. And that's essentially what was happening with the takedown with the airplanes. They went after an accounting of incidents, things that might be safety hazards. And then they voluntarily shut the entire system down, just like colonial pipeline shut all the oil delivery down because there was an attack on the accounting system. So we have a very, very complicated infrastructure that just in time, delivery supplies. And again, talking to, we've read the book. We got the book.

I can't remember. The two-volume book. Do you remember the title of that? About preparation and emergency preparation. It's kind of a generic name. Remember the two-volume book? Anyway, we might think of it here. Karen might remember it.

We've read it. I can't remember it because it's such a generic name, but I interviewed the author multiple times before any of this stuff happened in 2020. He was talking about how long the supply chains are, and if you break them at any given point, it's going to just whiplash through the entire system, and we broke it so badly that it's whiplashing through the entire system. So just imagine if we're going to have some orchestrated cyber attacks.

Are they coming from a hostile government? Are they coming from some pirates? There we go. Who cares? Bring in the book. Yeah, Civil Defense Manual. Here they are. Two volumes.

We keep this stuff here. Two volumes, and this is by Jack Lawson. I'd highly recommend that. A wealth of information there. You can go to his website, and Civil Defense Manual. That's why I said it's a generic name. And look up Jack Lawson, and you will see that he's got some examples in there, some free chapters out of this, and you'll see just how useful the information is for how to prepare to live on your own. He's somebody who has a military background, and he has aspects in there about growing food, about protecting yourself, making sure you've got a good supply of water.

What do you do about medical preparation? A lot of different things like that. So there's some great resources out there. Joel Skousen's book, like we talked about last week. He's got where to locate, how to build a secure home, how to build a secure shelter. Those are three different topics, three different books. So there's a lot of vulnerability in everything that we do, and they're trying to make us even more vulnerable. You know, we've opened up by talking about what everybody is talking about over the weekend, and that's the Chinese spy balloon. And yet how many ways is our government spying on us?

This article from childrenshealthdefense.com, why smart meters are bad for consumers, but good for utility companies. Well, they say they can promote energy conservation by providing detailed feedback, but they're also very harmful for health and they present big privacy concerns. I've talked about this for years. I talked about 5G long before Trump started championing it and saying, you know, we got to push this and there's a threat from China. We got to not have Huawei out there. We want American companies spying on you for the American government and so forth.

This is very well documented what the health effects are. We don't know these particular frequencies, however. We do know that electromagnetic radiation has real health effects that have been documented in many different ways and many different frequencies. These are new frequencies, and so now they are totally untested,

but you're also going to get some very high concentrations periodically. These things will, you know, the 5G multiplexes back and forth between different users. And all of these antennas are very short line of sight antennas. And they'll tell you that they're operating at low power levels. But what will happen is all of the antennas that have a direct line of sight to you will periodically all focus on you. And then listen.

So they'll ping something out to you and then listen for it. And then they'll find another target and they keep going back. So you're getting these high energy pulses from all the antennas that you can see. And they put them in a very high density format. You've seen what they're doing in New York because I've shown that to you. Some of the people in some areas of New York City wake up in the morning and all of a sudden there's this bizarre antenna right there in their window. Not just blocking their view, but it had some stickers on it. It said, don't get within, stay 10 feet away from this.

And yet it's right up against their window. They called and complained about that. And so the city of New York sent out some workers, not to move the smart antennas, but to take the sticker off. Problem solved. Abels, thank you very much for the tip on Rumble. Did you hear the story about the king of Thailand going after Pfizer because his daughter, the princess, took her third shot and has been in

a coma ever since? I didn't hear that. I heard that she had been injured by that. And I think she was the one who was supposed to be his successor, if I remember correctly. But good, I'm glad. See, it's inevitable. The truth will come out. We just have to hang in there and understand, though, that they have other things prepared for us. But we don't despair of this. Anyway, smart meters. If they're going to monitor your habits, they can collect information about what you use. They can be very specific even about which appliances that you're using. And of course, just like CBDC, if they know all of this about you and have access to all of this, they can shut down any or all of these things just like that.

This is one of the reasons why they want to take away all alternative sources of energy and heat and focus us on the grid. The grid will be completely controlled by these smart meters. People unwittingly sleep very close to these things. In some cases, they can't avoid it, like in New York City when they put it right up against your wall. Some of the people complaining about it and said, wait a minute, this is my baby's room. And you got one of these antennas right there. They're not supposed to be within 10 feet. It's going to be there all the time.

Smart meters are a bad idea because they use two-way radio frequency microwave radiation to send your data usage for electric, gas, water, solar, and propane energy. And of course, there's the EMF. But you know, don't worry about that. You need to worry about these Chinese spy balloons that are 60,000 feet up in the air. That's what you need to worry about. Don't worry about that smart meter that's right up against your window. That's your government, and you can trust them. Children especially. We've seen the effects of electromagnetic radiation and cancer clusters. And the good news about it is that even though Bill Clinton in 1996, it's 10 years after Fauci and Reagan put in the immunity for the pharmaceutical companies,

10 years later, Clinton put in immunity with the Telecommunications Act of 1996. He put in immunity for health effects. You're being able to sue these companies that were providing cell phone coverage at the time. And the United States allows a much, much higher concentration of electromagnetic radiation than any other country does. Nobody else stands down for industry like they do. One engineer, Bill Bathgate, certified building biology environmental consultant and engineer, said when they first started rolling these out, I had the opportunity to get a hold of one and to physically take it apart

over time. He said, um, he is also electromagnetic radiation specialist. He took apart smart meters made by four of the top five manufacturers. He said, there are three predominant design technologies used in most smart meters. And he said,

uh, they're all bad. The mesh network, the hub and spoke network, the power line communications. He said, I can attest that they all meet the FCC specs for the most part, but the specs are very wide. There's a lot of openness relative to the specification. So you can't expect the FCC specification to protect health. The FCC is not interested in protecting health. The FDA is not interested in protecting health and neither is the CDC. They're interested. All of them are interested in protecting industry.

The CDC especially has been focused on vaccines. One of the largest resellers of vaccines in the world. So they have a direct financial interest in this. And of course, the NIH and Fauci's NIAID all have an interest in it as well with the patents. Utilities will say the smart meters transmit the data only three or four times a day, meaning that's when they send it to the home station. But he said it's constantly pulsing all day through the home. Every three to seven seconds, it's pulsing. And again, I'll just mention real quickly, it's easy to remember, it's called the Fry Effect. Not spelled F-R-Y. Like frying your body. That's a way to remember it.

But it was Alan Fry, spelled F-R-E-I, who was working for the Navy, and he was the first one to discover this because he had an assistant who was hearing clicking sounds adjacent to some EMF equipment. And, of course, as I mentioned when I talked about this, and I first came up with that when I was trying to research this Havana syndrome thing, we had people saying, I heard clicking and then I, you know, all these different things happened to them. And that's when I came across the Fry effect. And he was funded by the Navy and he did research,

but they never funded anybody else to do that research. Because it was very similar to what the people found out about microwave ovens. Remember the first ones of those by Amano were called radar ranges? And that's how they found out about it. You had some technicians who had their coffee, and they set their cup on top of the radar machine. You know, picked up the EMF that was there. And they noticed that their coffee was getting hot.

It's like, oh, they looked at that and figured, hey, we can use that to heat things up. And same thing happened with Alan Fry and his assistant. He started hearing clicking noises because the EMF was doing things to his body, and your body uses electricity quite a bit. As a matter of fact, electroceuticals are the growth industry for big pharmaceutical companies. You go back, and when I was looking up, doing research on Monsef Slaoui and Fauci, when all this stuff happened in the early 2020, they were doing these pharmaceutical get-togethers, and they were all talking at the time, not even about vaccines, as much as they were talking about electroceuticals.

This is why Musk is focused on this. Not just Musk. There's a lot of people who are working on electrical means to hack your body, to mess with your body, to monitor your thoughts even. You know, this is what this is all about. And so it's not unusual that you'd be able to hear that. But nobody, at least in the U.S., cares about the levels of exposure and does anything to mitigate that. The good news is that even with the 19, again, going back to the local level, that's where you can protect yourself.

In 1996, Clinton puts this thing through, says you're not going to have, nobody's going to take down any cell phone antennas on the basis of health objections. Now, if you object to the way that they look, if you've got objections about aesthetics, let's say that you've got a very nice neighborhood and they don't want to, not in my backyard. We have this beautiful neighborhood and they got period houses and all this other kind of stuff. And we don't want some unsightly antenna thing up there. Well, then we'll work with you and we'll cover it up so you don't see it. But if you want to be concerned about health, no, we're not going to do anything about it. But there have been a lot of places where,

and it typically happens in the more left-leaning places. They have in the past been more concerned about health issues, about pure food and things like that. That's why it was so surprising to see that their authoritarian impulses outweighed their concerns about clean food and a clean environment when they started dictating this stuff to everybody. But in California and New York, they had several cases where they had cancer clusters, one of them in New York around an elementary school. And even though the 1996 Act says that you can't sue them, they banned these things at local levels. Several different local jurisdictions have done this and can do that. You just have to have people who've got the backbone to do it at the local level. But it can be stopped at the local level, even though the feds are going to be partnering with these people. But it is going to be another invasion of individual liberty, of autonomy, of privacy.

It is going to give them the kind of controls over energy that CBDC gives them over your money. You understand? It's about a total control of every facet of your life. We'll control, we'll watch, control, and even steal, if we want, your money with CBDC. When it comes to your energy, we'll watch, control, and even steal it, if we want to, with the smart meters. That's what it's all about. Little John says, David, last Christmas it was very cold to with the smart meters. That's what it's all about. Little John says,

David, last Christmas it was very cold here in the mountains of North Carolina, and the power company shut the power off to save power, and everyone I talked to that had their power turned off had a smart meter. Yep, yep. I do not have one, and my power never went off. Well, that gets me to the final point of this article. What can we do about it? Smart meters can restrict people's ability to use electricity as they wish by allowing the utility to remotely turn off heating and cooling without the user's consent. So those talking about

it, a former Texas assistant attorney general and telecom and administrative law attorney. His name is McCullough, Scott McCullough, uh, urged citizens to demand that their state legislators enact opt out legislation, preferably without charging consumers extra fees for refusing the service. And so that's, again,

if we, that's been done in Hawaii and we can do that in other places. We need to understand that if we get people who are good, who have integrity and also have a backbone to take on the system and you've got to back them up when they do, but, uh, you can have them interpose for you. That's the doctrine of the lesser magistrate. People have the Constitution and the law and morality and justice on their side, and if they're willing to stand and you're willing to stand with them, and if you can get them

in office, that can make a change at the local level. That's about the only place that's going to happen. Chat GPT boss Sam Altman hopes that AI can break capitalism. This is not surprising at all if you've played around with this thing. I've given you some examples of some of the things, questions that I've asked it, responses that I've asked it. And of course, the big article that took off with everybody was how it was, how partisan it was. It would not criticize Biden. It would write poems praising Biden, but not for Trump, not for DeSantis, that type of thing. And you see that over and over again.

It will not criticize women, but it will criticize men. It will not make a joke about women, but it'll make a joke about men, even making fun of them in terms of relative to women when it does that. So it's very, very politicized. As I said, it's like even more politicized, obviously politicized even than Google, because it's so much more obviously false. Google just hides things, but it doesn't actually produce the stuff. This actually makes it clear what its bias and prejudice and partisanship is. But the danger of all this, as I said before, it's just the thing that's been around for the longest time.

The idea that you've got a computer printout and everybody's going to bow down to it. And the only alternative for that is for people to be mature enough to understand that if you put garbage in, you're going to get garbage out of a computer. But most people don't understand that. And so that's what makes this dangerous chat GPT, especially for younger people who are going to be enthralled with this. It's going to do some things to entertain them. It's going to have a kind of pseudo intellectualism, just like the people who created it. And it's going to have all of their biases as well.

Sam Altman, the CEO of chat GPT creator, um, uh, the chat GPT creator is open AI. He had an interview with Forbes where he said he wanted to break capitalism. Now, that did not surprise me at all. What surprised me was that he said he liked capitalism. I don't know if this is true or not. I don't see any evidence of it. But he said, I think capitalism is awesome.

I love capitalism. Of all the bad systems the world has, it's the best one or the least bad one we've found so far. I hope we find a better one. And I think that if AGI really, truly, fully happens, I could imagine all these ways that it breaks capitalism. So, again, we should just bow down to this Marxist globalist. But the only thing they got right is the fact that it's artificially intelligent.

A lot of sophistry in this stuff. It's not just him who'd like to break capitalism. It's also Hillary Clinton's vice presidential running mate, Tim Kaine. He's a senator. His wife is on the school board, the state school board in Virginia. She made a speech where she denounces the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution as, quote, fundamental and enshrining slavery. Now, this is Virginia, where Youngkin won the election for governor largely because he rejected Terry

McAuliffe's push to indoctrinate kids with things that the parents didn't like, like CRT, LGBT, just shut up, we know better than you, you know, that type of thing. And so that was a big part of what got Youngkin elected, was a pushback against that kind of attitude by Terry McAuliffe, friend of the Clintons as well. So her name is Holton. She doesn't use her husband's name. His name is Kane, Tim Kane. She made the comments as Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin and his new history standards were being approved five to three by the Commonwealth's Board of Education that she sits on. So the question is, why does he have her on the board when she says this? To an audience as inclusive as our Virginia is,

you cannot reference the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution as, quote, remarkable documents, unquote, without also acknowledging that they are fundamental in enshr talking about environmental policies, especially that, or you're even talking about medical policies, everything the Democrats embrace in every aspect of life, and of course the federal government has injected itself into every aspect of our life, but whether it's the economy, whether it's medical, whether it's environmental, everything they do is designed to enslave us. And this is why they want you looking at slavery that is long since dead, 160 years ago. And they want you fighting each other. They want you redirected to that. Hopefully they can get a race war going. But they don't want you to see what they are doing. It's just like the Chinese spy balloon.

Ah, this is coming from China. Be very afraid. But don't pay attention to all of the ways that you are under constant surveillance by your own government. How they are at war with you. Yes, look at, you know, antebellum slavery, but don't look at what the Democrats have designed for your high-tech, open-air, wireless slavery. That's what they don't want you looking at.

She served as Virginia's Secretary of Education under former Governor Terry McAuliffe. And again, how interesting that this guy, Youngkin, who many listeners pointed out when he was running, was just a Republican in name only. Yeah, he was an establishment guy. So he runs, and his key thing is to push back against Terry McAuliffe on these educational issues. And then he has on the education board Virginia's Secretary of Education and the former governor. Now, I don't know if this is an inherited situation, but I cannot imagine that he doesn't have the power to replace her. It doesn't seem like his hands are tied. This is an article from Breitbart.

They don't say anything about the fact that this is some kind of a legacy position for her or anything. The history standards were written at least in part to correct disinformation and anti-American propaganda. This is what Youngkin ran on during his campaign. Board appointee Andy Rotherham, who was appointed by Youngkin, was appointed to the board by Senator Mark Warner when he was governor. So again, another appointment that was made by Youngkin

was somebody who was on the education board by a Democrat governor when he was there. By the way, as I point out, Tim Kaine is up for re-election, senator from Virginia, in 2024. There may be seen what will happen there. Arizona State University student was convicted of criminal trespass for handing out copies of the Constitution. I guess it was hate speech, right? I mean, it's all about slavery, right? Well, they don't have to give a reason as to why they hate the Constitution.

She gives a reason for why she hates the Constitution, because she's on the school board. ASU, Arizona State University, student Tim Tizon, convicted in October of criminal trespass on the third degree for handing out copies of the U.S. Constitution on the school's campus. The Liberty Justice Center is now representing him with an appeal that was filed at the end of the week, last week. His criminal conviction for simply handing out constitutions in a public forum on a university campus is further evidence of our country's departure from the principles. Because, again, remember, it was just back in 1946. I talk about it all the time in terms of Internet censorship. Because, as Jack Dorsey said in multiple testimonies under oath to Congress, he said,

Twitter, just like the other social media platforms, are the digital public square. And it was Alam Bakari at Breitbart who first pointed out this case, Marsh versus Alabama, 1946. He had somebody handing out religious tracts on the public square in a town that was owned by a coal company, and they said, you can't pass those out here. She said, I'm on the public square. It doesn't matter, we own it. Supreme Court in 1946 said, even if the public square, and that would mean the digital public square too, even if that's privately owned, they're not allowed to take away your free speech in the public square. Now, in this particular case, here we are now at a university. We're not talking even about social media.

This is a direct application to this. He's not handing out religious tracts. He's handing out the Constitution. And so he was charged with criminal trespassing. He said he didn't remain there knowingly, knowing that it was unlawful. He believed that it was a public space that was open to everyone. And his attorneys say the North Plaza of ASU's Tempe campus, where he handed this out, is designated as a public forum.

So he was in the public square. This is directly analogous to the Marsh v. Alabama 1946 case. Now, I hope that he gets to the Supreme Court. It's a good thing, actually, that he lost at the lower level. Because if they can keep appealing this, that might draw attention to that case. And I think that has very, very important implications for the kind of censorship that everybody is experiencing with free speech. You know, there's the free press and then there's free speech. Well, it's your free speech. All of us have free speech as citizens. And that is what is being affected

here. And that is exactly, his case is exactly the same thing. Instead of it belonging to a coal town, it belongs to the university. And therefore, it's not even privately owned. This is a state university. So it's an even weaker case for them than it is for him. So I hope that some judge will go back and cite that as a precedent because it is very important. Bill Maurer and Bryan Cranston, butting heads over critical race theory. And I don't really care what actor Bryan Cranston has to say. He's obviously drunk the Kool-Aid, or maybe this

is the guy from Breaking Bad. He's breaking really bad. Maybe he's not just drunk the Kool-Aid, maybe he's had the meth as well. I don't know. And look at reparations for folks many generations removed from slavery, he says. But don't look at human slavery and trafficking that's worse today than ever in history. That's right, the human trafficking, the prostitution stuff. Don't look at your cheap third-world Walmart crap made by slaves today either. That's right. And as many people are now starting to point out, all of our devices, whether you're not just electric cars, but even your cell phones, these lithium batteries and

stuff, they all have to some degree, the cobalt that is now being done under horrific circumstances, children working under slave circumstances there. And that's what many people said this is not what you have that's going on there in the democratic congo republic of congo yeah what a joke um but what is happening there is this is not uh the kind of chattel slavery that we've had i mean it's people theoretically move on it's one of the reasons why many people said at the time of slavery that was happening, I'm not defending it, I'm just pointing out that there's a lot of different types of slavery going on. And there was a form of slavery that was happening in the Industrial Revolution, just like we see today in the Congo. People desperately poor, working under horrific

conditions. That type of stuff doesn't happen anymore in Western countries, but it happens elsewhere. And then, of course, human trafficking and the rest of this, but what they are going to be putting us into, that's the key. So the two of them were talking about it, and Bryan Cran cranston the actor has uh completely drunk the kool-aid virtually virtuous signaling uh mauer said that he considers critical race theory to be one of these catch-all terms he told cranston if you mean more what the 16? He said, well, that's just wrong. And so he's moved in some areas. It's interesting to watch what Maurer has to say about some of these.

He said to teach children that they are oppressors is, quote, introducing ideas about race that are inappropriate for kids that age who can't understand it. See, he's not quite fully there himself. You know, tell people that they're oppressors when they're a little bit older. But that's one of the things about Bill Maher. You know, he said, hey, keep this transgender stuff away from kids. He draws a line on the CRT and on the LGBT stuff, draws it for kids. But look, it's a lie that anybody is an oppressor because of the color of their skin.

That's just a lie. And to tell that to kids is, so my son says, yeah, wait until they get in college and then you can feed them this kind of stuff, which is what they've been doing for years. Absolutely right. And he also, in closing to his show, he compares what's called, I hate to use the term woke, the woke American left to Mao's cultural revolution. Again, this is their term. It is not mine. I saw an article on Daily Skeptic where the guy took exception to the fact that we're calling wokeness Marxism.

No, it is. It is. It's got all the hallmarks of it. If it sounds like Marxism, if it walks like Marxism, if it stinks like Marxism, it's Marxism. Anyway, this is what Bill Maher said. He talked about people freaking out over the Chinese spy balloon over Montana. Then he turned serious and he noted how the woke are trying to reinvent the very nature of human beings.

He talked about the Red Guard movement in China where people would attack those accused of not towing the ideological line, making them wear dunce caps and publicly shaming them. Such tactics, Mara said, were an attempt to change things by screaming at it. Now, that's a quote to remember. Changing things by screaming at it, and not even screaming about what's relevant, just screaming at somebody, you're racist. I disagree with you, so you're racist. And again, there is real racism.

And what you're doing is you're crying wolf and you're giving real racists to pass when you do that. So trying to change things by screaming at it. He said that was a problem then. It's a problem now. And it's becoming more of a fact of life here in the United States. Well, I disagree with him that they're trying to reinvent the very nature of human beings. He is being charitable with their motives. I don't think they have motives that are altruistic and noble.

Do you really think, and he talked about how in Russia, you know, they want to make everybody love each other and share everything. Do you really think that's what Lenin and Stalin were about? Come on. This is a raw exercise in power. And as I've said many times, all this debate about Stalin versus Hitler, fascist versus socialist and all the rest of the stuff, it's a bunch of nonsense. It's just the lies they tell you to get in charge.

And if you look at life under Hitler, life under Stalin, isn't it amazing how similar it is? They used different lies. Stalin says, I'm an internationalist, brotherhood of man, all this other kind of stuff. Whereas Hitler used, you know, nationalism and we are all members of the same race and all this other kind of stuff. It was just a different lie that they told people in order to get control. They both called themselves socialists.

The Nazis were the National Socialist Party. So they're all authoritarians, and they're not trying to make you a better person. They're trying to get control over everything and steal everything from everybody and kill all their opponents. That's what they're doing. They're not out there trying to reform humanity. That's naive in the extreme. No.

To the extent that they start telling people this, they do think that they're God. But they're not trying to change human nature. They are exhibiting true human nature after the falls. And then this. This is from the Gateway Pundit covering Bill Maher. And they said, well, you know, he's getting close to figuring out that the left are authoritarians. He figured that out a long time ago.

But they said, he is still a Trump-hating liberal, but he deserves credit when he gets something right. That's the Gateway Pundit. So I guess the Gateway Pundit is still a Kool-Aid-drinking Trump lover. How can these people look at the Trump shots? This is the thing that has amazed me for the entire duration of this show. It happened while I was still at Infowars criticizing Trump. And I get all this hate mail and still get all this hate mail.

And people will unsubscribe and write me hate comments and all the rest of the stuff because of what I say about Trump. And all I have to do, and I like to do it from time to time, put up something that has a title that has Trump shots in it. Instead of calling it the COVID vaccine, or instead of calling it the mRNA vaccine, or calling it the genetic code injection, which that's my term. Not too many people use that. But, you know, so they know what it's about. I call it the Trump shot. And even though he's been bragging about it for years, he's kind of put a lid on it right now, but he's still so proud of it.

It was just within the last month that he went into it again about how many millions or hundreds of millions of lives that he saved with his Trump shots. He desperately wants credit for it, so I give him the credit. But what it says about the people like Gateway Pundit, the fact that they hate the vaccine,

but they love the producer and the seller and the marketer of the vaccine. Now, what kind of double think is that? That is really scary to see people who love Big Brother to that extent and who get so angry when you give him the credit that he so desperately craves. And these people hate the vaccine so much and love Trump, and they cannot and will not resolve the cognitive dissonance that's there. It really is scary. These are people that we would agree with on most issues, but this is

what is really scary about where we are right now. Billy Gard, thank you for the tip on Rumble. Long live the David Knight Show. Thank you very much. It will, with your support. Thank you so much. My son writes, Trump wants credit while at the same time attacking DeSantis for supporting his lockdowns at the beginning and supporting his vaccines. I mean, he actually, you saw that. He said, and I reported that last week. Oh, he loves the vaccines. I was like, man, bad guy, because he talked you into getting my vaccines.

And I agree. I said, that's one thing Trump got right. That's one of the big problems I've got with DeSantis is how he pushed the vaccine. But nobody pushed it more than Trump did. Trump allocated $250 million out of the big problems I've got with DeSantis is how he pushed the vaccine, but nobody pushed it more than Trump did. Trump allocated $250 million out of the ad council. We'd never seen that big a budget for anything. And he continued to push it and continues to do so. Megan Markle's podcast is a classic example of get woke,

go broke. Who would have thought it Spotify has suffered $230 million in loss. Do you know how much they gave Megan Markup, I guess is what we should call her. Whenever she offers her services to somebody, she marks them up really high. 12 hours of content on Spotify. They got paid $18 million. $18 million. We'll talk more about that when we come back. I'm going to take a real quick break, and we'll be right back. using free speech to free minds it's the david knight show okay so we got spotify you know spotify is the only podcast provider that censors me.

And yet they paid Megan Markup and Harry, the man formerly known as Prince. They paid them $18 million for 12 hours of content. That's one and a half million dollars per hour. That's more than I make. A lot more. They, I actually had people at Spotify bought a company that was on the advertising side. And they said, we're going to roll this out in a big way.

All right. We're going to pull in a lot of podcasts. We're going to host them and we're going to host the ads and, uh, we're going to do live updates. And so even if somebody goes back and listens to a show six months or so ago, We're going to host them and we're going to host the ads and, uh, we're going to do live updates. And so even if somebody goes back and listens to a show six months or so ago, they're going to get whatever the current ads are. So it's going to be, you know, we're really big and we're going to have a lot of advertising money. And I said, okay, well, that's fine. Except you guys have banned me. You're the only ones to ban me and talk to the advertising representative. And she said, well, let me look into this. And then, well, as we were

talking, they banned me again. And the only reason I was back on there was because I had changed podcast suppliers. You host your podcast on a platform and then it sends it out to all the different ones, like the iHeart and iTunes and Spotify and Pandora and all the rest of them. And only Spotify would reject mine. Every time I would change whoever was hosting my podcast, Spotify would cancel me a few weeks or a few months after it had transferred. So we're talking about it, and she looks and she says,

oh, yeah, they just canceled you, so never mind. But for Megan Markup and for the man formerly known as Prince, give them $1.5 million per hour. And they said the man formerly known as Prince mustered up as much brain power as he could for the podcast, which saw him telling tennis star Serena Williams, I like what you've done with your hair. It's a great vibe.

It reminds me of the, I had a friend who had the big, back in, I guess it was, yeah, 1980s, early 1980s. He had one of the really big antenna dishes, the analog dishes, that you could point at different satellites. He had this um, uh, this rural lot that he was building a house on. And he put this thing on, uh,

uh, a stand where he could, and it's big. I mean, it's really heavy. He had to move it with a garage door opener, but he had points set up so that he could reposition it to look at different birds,

different satellites. And one of the things that he would see in those early days, they were always broadcasting. And so while there was a commercial that was happening, if you're watching it on television, the live feed was going to pick up whatever the people were doing on the set. So if they're, you know, you take a commercial break and you're talking to somebody on the set that would be fed out on the satellite. And you could see that stuff. And he recorded, uh,

Dan rather. And it was, it was, uh, the, the Gulf war. And, uh,

he's looking at, uh, out over the horizon and he's really intense studying the horizon and you think wow it looks like he's in deep thought and after about a minute of silence he turns to the people with him he goes how's my hair that's all he's thinking about that's what uh the man formerly known as prince is thinking about as well uh that's yeah the kind of superficial and shallow so the program was called, this is why they got paid

one and a half million dollars per hour to do, Archetypes with Megan, a podcast where we investigate, dissect, and subvert the labels that try to hold women back. Now, besides this pseudo-intellectualism, look at the hypocrisy and the pretentiousness of this. Somebody who has been so successful talking about how she can't succeed because she's a woman, because she's black, right?

Spotify's excesses are now costing people their jobs. Good, go out of business. A little bit of schadenfreude. They should go out of business because the way they identify podcasts, and it's one of the reasons why they're the only ones censoring me right now, is because they've got some software and they want to market it to all the different podcast places to identify verboten content like mine and to shut it down. And if they're successful marketing that to other podcasts, I'll disappear. So I hope they do go out of business. Anyway, a billion dollars building its podcast library while While the company has been laying off 600 employees this month alone, they spent an estimated $200 million on Joe Rogan. Interesting. I don't watch Joe Rogan. I think

he's about as deep as Megan Markup and the man formerly known as Prince. So I'm not really interested in Joe Rogan, but he's got a big following, of course, and they, maybe they're making their money off of him. Everybody else in the world seems to watch Joe Rogan. But I did have,

I tried to watch an episode because a friend of mine, Mark Hall, who's documentary filmmaker, he did a great documentary about Fatala Gulen's cult getting about a billion dollars to run these charter schools, worst case scenario charter schools where the money can be taken by a guy who runs religious madrasas everywhere else. But it covers a lot of criminal investigations have been looking into it or getting a lot of state and federal money. Uh, but, um, I got to know

Mark Hall through that documentary and, um, he, I was talking to him last week and he said, you know, um, Adam Curry, uh, the guy who was the first podcaster, he used to work on MTV and, um, he's has, um, I like Adam and I I've met Adam on a couple of occasions cause Mark knows him and, um, we've had dinner together. And, uh, when I first left InfoWars, Mark was nice enough to introduce me to Adam. I didn't want to do the model that he had at that time because it wasn't at what he calls podcast 2.0 just yet. And because it's focused on cryptocurrency. And again, I don't want the complications of that at this point in time. But Adam Curry was on with Joe Rogan. And you can see this on YouTube. They got three different video clips of that. And Adam has become a Christian. And so Joe Rogan got into these

discussions with him. And Adam did a pretty good job of explaining why he believes what he does. And he doesn't typically get into that with his show that he does with a partner. But Joe Rogan wanted to talk about it. And so I thought that was real interesting. Mark said, yeah, you should check this out. He talks about it. But I just can't get over watching. I couldn't watch the full thing because Joe Rogan, I just find to be too annoying.

And one day he's talking to somebody, uh, about, uh, that. And the next day he is, um, telling people they should do be smoking mushrooms or whatever you do with mushrooms. I don't know. The guy is just all over the place. He hasn't got a rudder. And that's one of the things I guess that people like about his program is it's so varied, uh, because he just doesn't know anything or stand for anything.

I gotta say, uh, he may know it, but he just won't know anything or stand for anything, I've got to say. He may know it, but he just won't stand for any particular thing. Speaking of standing for things, we've got just a little bit of time we've got here. Interesting that they are now shutting down a Revolutionary War reenactment up in Pennsylvania. I didn't realize this, but even at Gettysburg, the national park system will not allow any reenactments of any battles on what they control. Another reason to get rid of the park system. We don't need it. We can take care of the parks at the state level. That is not allowed in the Constitution. There is nothing for the federal government to do. And of course, whenever

there's a budget crunch, if you see this continuing resolution fail because they're fighting about some things that many of which they should fight about not enough things that they're fighting over frankly but you know if they get into a big fight over funding of ukraine if they delay this thing what they're going to do is they're going to shut the parks down first we don't need the federal government doing it and one example of this is how now they're going to do is they're going to shut the parks down first. We don't need the federal government doing it. And one example of this is how now they're not going to allow this Revolutionary War enactment. They all have to be done on private property. Even the one that's in Gettysburg, that's on private property. I didn't know that. But that's your government. They hate our history. They hate the American people as well.
