You're listening to The David Knight Show. As the clock strikes 13, it's Thursday, the 10th of October, year of our Lord, 2024. Well, today we're going to take a look at Milton. As I said yesterday, one of the key issues that we always have with this is the fact that we have people who are hyping this to the nth degree.

And that gets people to stay in danger's way but unfortunately we don't know well we don't know exactly what the damage has been but fortunately it came down extensively and uh came in in a much different area than they said so we're going to take a look at that and we're going to take a look at both the left and the right. Pushing panic about weather. No weather like this has ever happened before. This is the most important election of our lifetime. And on and on. A new study, a couple of studies have come out.

Looking at plastics in your brain. Interestingly, they come through the nose. I wonder how that could have happened. Who knows? As we say, right? We'll be right back. Well, Marjorie Taylor Greene is still being attacked by the mainstream media for saying that there was such a thing as geoengineering. And of course, we all know that there is.

The question is, was that involved in what happened with the Hurricane Helene? And so as she's being attacked, she puts out a post and says, yes, they can control the weather. Here is Obama's CIA director, John Brennan, talking about it. Anyone who says they don't or makes fun of this is lying to you. By the way, the people know it. The people know it, and they hate all of you who try to cover it up. And, of course, Brennan and others hate us as well.

It's kind of a mutual thing. Here's the clip that she put up. Another example is the array of technologies, often referred to collectively as geoengineering, that potentially could help reverse the warming effects of global climate change. One that has gained my personal attention is stratospheric aerosol injection, or SAI, a method of seeding a stratosphere with particles that can help reflect the sun's heat in much the same way that volcanic eruptions do. An SAI program could limit global temperature increases, reducing some risks associated with higher temperatures and providing the

world economy additional time to transition from fossil fuels. This process is also relatively inexpensive. The National Research Council estimates that a fully deployed SAI program would cost about $10 billion yearly. As promising as it may be, moving forward on SAI would also raise a number of challenges for our government and for the international community. On the technical side, greenhouse gas emission reductions would still have to accompany SAI to address other climate change effects, such as ocean acidification, because SAI alone would not remove greenhouse gases from the atmosphere. On the geopolitical side, the technology's potential to alter weather patterns and benefit certain

regions of the world at the expense of other regions could trigger sharp opposition by some nations. Others might seize on SAI's benefits and back away from their commitment to carbon dioxide reductions. And as with other breakthrough technologies, global norms and standards are lacking to guide the deployment and implementation of SAI and others. Yeah, of course, this is nothing new. He's there, by the way, at the Council on Foreign Relations. And if you say that these people are subversive globalists, well, then you're a conspiracy theory theorist, right?

Yeah, they are. And so is the CIA. The CIA were the people who were always pushing this idea of peak oil, of fossil fuels. They were the ones pushing this narrative, I'm sure, behind the scenes to Time and Newsweek, who foolishly said in 1979, we're going to be out of oil and gas by the middle 1980s. And so we've got to have something else. We've got to have power. Now they're not saying you've got to have power.

They're saying you don't need power. You're not going to get power artificial intelligence is going to get all the power we're going to pretend that nuclear energy is clean and doesn't have any issues and we're going to let these corporations build it themselves and do it as fast as possible no concern about safety right uh But look, the issue has been, and I talked about this over a decade ago, they used to have, and still do, have annual geoengineering conferences. And at one of them, I remember reading on air the paper, from a paper that was put there, and they said,

well, of course, and this is a decade ago, we know we can modify the weather. The question is, who gets to control the thermostat and i joked about it i said you know that's the issue between men and women this is always too cold or too hot um and i said uh you know that that's and that's exactly what he said much more recently who gets to control the thermostat essentially here's the deal maybe we could keep our cars and suvs and maybe they could get rid of harp right would that be a good trade-off you see the reality is the media is weaponizing this uh uh more than the pentagon is quite frankly they're weaponizing the weather that's what the green agenda is always about, is weaponizing the weather.

And now I'm starting to see it on the right. Because now everything that happens, everything that's unusual, anything that can be perceived as an anomaly, whether it is an anomaly or not. Now you've got the right-wing people out there saying, it's geoengineering. They're putting this up, just like the other people. As soon as there's a storm, if it's hot, if it's cold, if it rains, if it doesn't rain, that's climate change. And now the same thing is being done by the right because they can grab headlines with it. The left pushes man-made climate change. The right is now pushing geoengineering. Well, I just got to say that fortunately, if, well, I mean, it did hit some other people, but I think it hit a less populated area.

And there have been casualties in the area where it landed, so I'm not trying to minimize that. But the reality is, is that if they were steering these hurricanes, they need to work on their steering ability. Okay. It's kind of like the Tesla self-driving cars. You can see that it came in down around Brandon. Bradenton, I'm sorry. Yeah, Brandon. It's dark Brandon now.

It's power outage. But it went into Bradenton rather than into Tampa. And, of course, one of the reasons that and it also de-intensified. So when it hit, it was 120 miles per hour. And so that made it a category three. And it landed about 70 miles south of tampa one of the big issues was that if it came into tampa did a great deal of damage of course higher population center there but if it damaged the port of tampa that was a critical part of the fuel infrastructure for the entire

state coming in by water through tampa bay's port and so from that standpoint when we look at it it has a significantly further south track it's going to miss orlando uh in terms of the eye of the hurricane uh and it is now diminished as of five o'clock this morning when i checked it was 85 miles an hour so it's down to a tropical storm uh it's not no longer a hurricane it was still over land i believe about to uh head out into atlantic and so um maybe walt disney put in a call to the pentagon got him to uh but in terms of dollars in terms of the number of people that were exposed to this and in terms of the intensity all of it was much less than they had said and as i said growing up in florida i heard this my entire life you know this is going to be the worst storm we've ever seen it's going to directly hit

us and all the rest of the stuff and that's not to minimize what happens with it but they always would overhype it and it would always lose steam just as it was getting to the coastline. In most cases, it would. Or rapidly lose steam here. And so we were hearing stuff like, this is forever going to change the coastline. This is going to cost hundreds of billions of dollars. This may cost as much as we sent to Ukraine and all the rest of this stuff. You will, if you stay in your home, that will be your tomb.

That's what the mayor of Tampa was doing, a Democrat. But anyway, they were even saying, we've got to, when it was out in the Atlantic and it was oscillating back and forth between a class, a category four and a category five, we're going to have to have another category. We've got to have a category six, a category five we're going to have to have another category you got to have a category six this type of thing and so the hysteria from both the left and the right about this and again it does not match the hurricanes that we know about 150 years ago or a century ago that type of thing so the climate change thing is not true. And then the next part of this, okay, this is in the anticipation of it. The tornadoes that were coming in, and the tornadoes are very serious. As I said, we went through so many hurricanes near and far when I was in Florida,

but the most devastating thing to us personally was a tornado i never saw anything like that and it hit our house at one point in time we were hit by a tornado now this was put up i took a screenshot of this because you need to see what was said by somebody named concerned citizen i don't know who this person is this is anonymous account uh and they said um two tornadoes picture two tornado yeah that's right and it's been reported that multi-numerous tornadoes today across florida estimated at over 50 when has this ever happened before and they put up a video and notice and this is what i really appreciate that twitter has done this This is one improvement that Elon Musk has made, even though I'm shadow banned. This community notes here.

Readers added this context. This is not even a video of tornadoes formed by Hurricane Milton. This is a video of a storm in Nebraska in 2014. When has this ever happened before? Well, it happened in Nebraska in 2014. When has this ever happened before? Well, it happened in Nebraska in 2014. That's when it happened before. Look, tornadoes are frequently spun off of hurricanes, and they can be the most damaging aspect of it.

But everybody, all the conservatives and the again the geoengineering people and and they're not saying that geoengineering is a fraud it absolutely is not a fraud but when you come in and you got people i don't know if who this is this is anonymous account are they some kind of a you know false flag troll you know that happens that's a real thing with anonymous accounts like that, especially the ones that are promoted by the social media accounts. Concerned Citizen, is that a CIA account? What is that? I don't know.

Put your name out there. We have seen this type of thing before. Unfortunately, if you go back and look at Hurricane Andrew that went through a homestead, it was horrific. And it was primarily a wall of tornadoes before the hurricane. That was in 1992. And one of these quotes that is put into the article that was put up by W&D, W&D trying to tell you this is geoengineering, this is we've never seen anything like this before.

They become as ridiculous and as over the top as the climate change people on the left. One person says, I've lived in Floridaida for 36 years and i've never seen anything like this have you well if you lived there for 36 years 32 years ago in 1992 hurricane andrew hit there are many many tornadoes as i said i went through homes uh homestead and that type of thing. The most expensive, by far, hurricane that had hit Florida at that point in time. And that was four years after this person moved there. So I don't know what the deal is. But when has it ever happened before? Well, in Nebraska, 10 years ago, that was where that picture came from.

You see what I'm saying? Let's stick to what's real, folks. All of this climate change and geoengineering is a distraction from FEMA. FEMA needs to be what we focus on and what we shut down and cut off. We've got to focus on the institutions, not on the histrionics.

It's hysterical people on the left and right. And then this, okay, we've got friends from college. One of them has really veered off to the extreme left because of a lifetime as a teacher in government schools, and it has really radicalized her. And so yesterday she was all about DeSantis DeSantis DeSantis this criminal it's almost as if he had engineered this storm and actually he did a lot to prepare for it but I said

if you want to criticize government's role in the storm just take a look and how the road is jammed and how people can't get out of there and part of the problem is that the government all governments don't want to build roads anymore and it's become so corrupt and so ineffective and impotent and they're road building stuff that they can't build anything anymore. The whole process has become such insider corruption that they can't and they won't build roads. And so imagine if they had had adequate roads. And I mean, typically, you're not near capacity,

which is the situation in Florida and these arteries that are like this. Those roads are very 75. I've been down there for quite some time, and I imagine it's a lot more crowded than it was last time I was there. But it was near capacity. They should have expanded it. But they don't. And so one thing that they did as a testimony to this

is that they opened the road shoulders so that more, you know, they have wider facilities. But how about putting some money into the infrastructure of our roads? And they don't do it because they all know, Republican and Democrat, that the plan is to make sure that people don't have private vehicles. Think about the fact that if we didn't have private vehicles, we talked about this yesterday. What are you going to do? So worst case scenario, as Jason Barkerer pointed out you know your your electric vehicle and i said yeah it brings all new meaning to uh range anxiety doesn't it you're trying to get out

of an area because you think something's coming and um uh you don't have the range to get out of there uh the gas stations were closing down, especially around those areas right there at the center. About 70% of them were closed on Tuesday, had no gas and that type of thing. But that really would not be that big a difference issue if you didn't have to sit in traffic for so long. If you could get to where you wanted to go, that would alleviate a lot of that. And of course, as I pointed out, this has been a long-term known problem, as Joel Skousen pointed out in his book, Strategic Relocation. He said, be careful about Florida.

You know, whenever there's some kind of emergency or something, you're going to be stuck in there. Because there's only a few major highways going north and south to try to get out of there and so you know that's um the road capacity is something you criticize the government for but that's not what she's criticizing she's all about the green agenda the lgbt and other things like that milton reached a maximum intensity of 180 miles per hour when it was out in the water. That's not unusual. The part of the issue is that we have so much monitoring equipment and we can monitor it so far out and for so long.

That helps to get people afraid and they're erring on the side of caution. I understand that. But when you've gone through a lot of these different storms, you see two things, as I said. You see it being overhyped by the weather people. The government then jumps in and makes mandatory evacuation issues, orders, and things like that. And then you wind up with FEMA and other government agencies that stop you from getting back to your home.

All these people left their homes. I mean, these neighborhoods are empty. Is it going to be looting? How are they going to get back? Because what I've seen in the past, on the coast of North Carolina and other places, after FEMA really gathered strength like a hurricane, FEMA keeps people from going back to their homes.

So you had the mayor, Jane Castor in Tampa. I can say without any dramatization whatsoever, if you choose to stay in one of those evacuation areas, you are going to die. Well, fortunately, she was wrong about that. DeSantis did quite a bit of preparation, as a matter of fact. He brought in utility workers and linemen in advance to restore the electricity. So we'll see how quickly that happens. The moral of the story of all this stuff is don't believe the weathermen.

Especially don't believe them when they start talking about what the weather is going to be like years from now, decades from now. That is something I have harped on, no pun intended, for many, many years. These people who can't predict the weather are telling you what's going to happen decades from now. And now that they've been lying to us for 50 years, we have a long string of failed prophecies from these people, and we ought to take them outside the camp and stone them rather than listening to them. But anyway, the preparations that were done, and again, I'm not criticizing him for doing this. You have to be, what, be prudent if you didn't do it, right? Over 50,000 linemen, the largest staging of utility workers and linemen in advance of the storm at any time in American history. And this is what DeSantis was able to put together.

So we've signed an additional 600 ambulances currently in operation, helping in the effort. The National Guard is deploying 6,000 Florida National Guardsmen, as well as another 3,000 National Guardsmen from other states. They have 34 search and rescue aircraft, 500 tactical vehicles, including 180 high-water vehicles. This is the largest Florida National Guard search and rescue mobilization in the entire history of the state of Florida. And again, 50,000 linemen, some of them from as far away as California. So send them up to North Carolina and Tennessee. Because I think that there's certainly going to be things that need to be done there.

But with that number of people, they should be able to accomplish that, I think, fairly quickly. So Lala Harris, who wants to have all eyes on her, and that includes the eye of the hurricane. She's got to put herself at the very center of everything. And even though nobody was asking for her opinion, she called in to CNN to whine about DeSantis and about not even about DeSantis, but about Trump and his dangerous involvement in all of this stuff, right? She said she doesn't like the fact that he's criticizing FEMA, which she thinks is just great. So she called into CNN. She bashed Trump for his comments about FEMA's response to the storms.

She said, this is dangerous. His speech is dangerous. His speech is unconscionable. Anybody who says that, folks, is dangerous, unconstitutional, and unconscionable. She said it'll mislead desperate people to the point that those desperate people uh would not receive the aid to which they're entitled wait a minute you're saying because trump criticizes fema that these people aren't going to get the aid why is fema going to get its feelings hurt and walk away you're not going to do anything are you you're out there talking

about how you're going to have $57 million to Lebanon and bragging about the fact that $750 to the people who are there. As I said, the mayor of one of those towns that was wiped off, face of the earth, his daughter applied to get that. They wouldn't give her the full $750. They gave her $300. He said that doesn't even cover the groceries she lost in the refrigerator. She goes on to say, it's dangerous.

This is dangerous. And this gamesmanship has got to stop. Yes, it does. She's the one who's doing it, as a matter of fact. Dangerous for her to criticize speech. Dangerous for her to try to gaslight us with lies about what's happening with FEMA. It's not Trump that we're listening to. We're listening to the people who are there.

And, um, so it'll be good, uh, when she is removed off of the scene and, and, uh, 30 days, I hope anyway,

uh, she said, uh, let's let the folks who are on the ground do the work that they need to do right now in real time. That's right. You keep your FEMA people away from them. Okay?

That's the way that happens. Where was FEMA, by the way? Did they do any preparation for Milton like DeSantis did? In fact, yesterday I talked about the fact you've got some of these Christian missions. They drive from a long way. They knew that the storm was coming in somewhere. And they set up a camp that was north of where, quite a bit north of where they thought it was going to hit.

And had everything ready. So as soon as a storm passed by, they went right in. Why didn't FEMA do that? So these Christian volunteer societies did that. DeSantis didn't do that. Or did that, but FEMA didn't do that, right? So the Christian societies do it. DeSantis does it.

They prepare in advance. They stage this stuff nearby. Not FEMA. Not FEMA. When asked if Congress should return to Washington to pass more funding for disaster relief, Harris responded, FEMA has what they need right now. Sounds just like Biden. The two of them flying over the area, shutting down rescue missions, coming back.

Well, what needs to be done about this storm? Storm? What storm, said Biden? Oh, oh, oh, that storm. They've got everything they need already. And they're very happy. Well, you want to talk about something, somebody that's dangerously out of touch uh so biden uh is criticizing uh trump because it's all about gamesmanship it's all about politics and that's what they're projecting onto other people um and going after marjorie tayene, because she talked about geoengineering, she responded, and this is in AOL, doesn't even mention that clip of Brennan.

They talk about, she wrote on Twitter, on X, yes, they can control the weather. But they failed to mention that she put a clip in there of John Brennan saying that. That's how dishonest they are. Biden says that Ron DeSantis has his direct number. Again, undercutting Lala Harris, who is so desperate for attention. She's calling in to people. Let me read this who is so desperate for attention. She's calling into people. Let me, let me read this script that somebody wrote for me. Let me read that's over the phone to you. I can't handle a personal appearance because that just gets a bit too dodgy. As a matter of fact, if we look at what happened with her on 60 Minutes,

everybody is talking about this clip. But it seems that Prime Minister Netanyahu is not listening. Well, Bill, the work that we have done has resulted in a number of movements in that region by Israel that were very much prompted by or a result of many things, including our advocacy for what needs to happen in the region. But it seems that... Let's try it. This is their edited clip. ...is not listening. We're not going to stop pursuing what is necessary for the United States to be clear about where we stand on the need for this war to end.

Oh, yeah, we've got to be clear about where we stand. So let me do that again, okay? And the problem was that 60 minutes put out both versions put out one of the versions and um the um the first version it's part of their promo i think and the second one came out as part of the actual interview so everybody's saying up we'd like to see the transcript see just how much you have edited this trump was uh wise not to go on with him. It was obvious that CNN was laying in wait for him,

just as CNN tried to rig the debate of the vice presidential debate. But again, Biden says, DeSantis has got my direct now. DeSantis can handle this, right? DeSantis, in terms of Lala's whining

about the fact that I tried to call him and everything. It's like, well, go call CNN. They'll put you on. I'm not going to put you on. No, but he said, I didn't know that she had called. I'm not sure who they called. They didn't call me. Biden's got my number.

She doesn't. Their characterization of it was something that they did. It wasn't anything that anybody in my office did in terms of saying that it was political. She says, my approach is about new ideas, new policies that are directed at the current moment, and also to be very honest with you, which she never is, right? My focus is very much on what we need to do over the next 10 20 years to catch up to the 21st century that's what she said on september the 13th uh and then um this week when she went on the view they said what would you have done differently than biden did the past

four years well nothing comes to mind i don't know what to say. See, Lala is not just a liar. She's a stupid liar. That's the best kind because it's pretty obvious what they're doing. So, again, she goes on with a view and tries to blame Trump for what is happening with FEMA. And she gets hammered by everybody except the people on The View. She said, Trump puts himself before the needs of others. I fear that he really lacks empathy. Duh.

Whoever said that Trump's got empathy for anybody? That's the most narcissistic politician you've ever seen in your life of course he doesn't have empathy that is beside the point it's your fema that you're out there bragging about you're bragging about sending 157 million dollars to lebanon while you give 750 dollars to people in the area that's hit uh so one person said in today's dose of unrivaled stupidity lala blames trump for the fema failure with hurricane helene she directed the fema funds to pay for the illegals that's a citizen free press another person comments and says why is lala blaming trump for fema's response to the hurricane trump left office three and a half years ago She's on the view instead of helping people who are impacted by this. And if I was going to blame Trump for something to do with FEMA, I would blame him for not getting rid of it. FEMA is unconstitutional.

We never had FEMA until 1978. We don't need FEMA. I was 23 years old before FEMA ever existed. Went through a lot of hurricanes. We happened to manage it without having somebody block us out of our homes. And people want to stay behind and ride out the storm. Only got much worse because of FEMA high-handed efforts. So she did the same thing. She went on with Colbert. Have you no empathy, man, she said, for the suffering of other people?

How arrogant. How she is projecting this. Have you no sense of purpose? If you purport to be a leader, to understand that being a leader means lifting people up in a time of need and not manipulating them. She's not raising tens of millions of dollars in Hollywood while all this stuff was happening in the aftermath of it you want to talk about empathy so they uh open up and have a beer there on stephen cobert's program you know i guess um they could uh maybe have her dress up like a hypodermic needle no that was men with hairy legs that they did that after they did the cartoon stuff. What a pathetic cheerleader this guy is.

Of everything evil, I can't stand Stephen Colbert. There are so many things that are funny about the Vax, as in weird and strange and scary, right? But that's not funny. Ham-fisted propaganda that gets people injured and killed is not funny cobert uh let's also not forget that while americans are begging for help she appeared on a sex podcast and then goes and raises money in hollywood of course but again it is appropriate for her to do that she is after all a sex worker it shows that even a prostitute can become president in the united states and of course uh you know she is

essentially the combination of two of the world's oldest professions politicians and prostitutes and being a prostitute first actually helps you a great deal with your politician profession. It's almost a kind of training, isn't it? Meanwhile, we got hotels in Florida and Georgia starting to raise their price yesterday from $95 to $700 a night. Isn't that amazing? And some of these were in Gainesville.

I looked at this and it's like, Gainesville's only 130 miles north of Tampa. If they're saying it's coming in in Tampa, I mean, they missed the landing spot by 70 miles. So I don't know what's going on. They have, in this particular article from Daily Mail, they took screenshots of a lot of these different hotels, Hampton Inn and Suites in Brunswick, Georgia, offered a room Wednesday night for $617. I'm sorry. It's small print, and I almost thought that was a question mark. But it's questionable to charge those kind of prices.

I don't know. I just, that's what you see happening and they need to pass that around so people remember uh that hotel there uh la la meanwhile raised 55 million dollars in california while north carolinians lost everything as she goes to the people in Hollywood, all of her friends, it was the entrance fee was said nothing says out of touch like a ritzy gala in San Francisco where the elites come in for an entrance fee of $926,600. This is restoration news.

And then in addition to the nearly a million dollars entrance fee to see her, if you want a picture with her, $100,000 a pop. Well, I don't know. You talk about price gouging. It couldn't happen a better look i'd rather pay a thousand dollars to stay in a motel six than uh hundred thousand dollars for a picture of lala uh with lala uh well it's she said as she was there, sounding very much like Dorothean, the Wizard of Oz, who's just had a near miss with a tornado, right? It's good to be home. It's good to be home as she clicked her heels in her ruby slippers.

Well, she doesn't have ruby slippers, but she is bedecked with jewels everywhere else. Every time she goes around, she's got expensive jewelry. At the same time that Harris was collecting checks in San Francisco, Asheville was completely underwater with debris, fallen trees, cutting off countless North Carolina towns from help. Where is the empathy? Yeah, you're in charge here. Oh, so you're going to go fundraise.

At least 64 deaths. The current toll is now over 200. Untold millions without power or cell service. Yeah, empathy. She goes fundraising. As an elderly Asheville couple and their seven-year-old grandson swept off a collapsing roof by the currents leaving behind his mother, the family's sole survivor. She said, my grief is unfathomable georgia governor brian kemp described the carnage in western georgia as looking like a bomb went

off but lala was too busy whisking off to sunny la and a bevy of hollywood actors awaiting her there to comment oh by the way if you she had a lunchtime special i guess it's like the early bird special if you want to go for lunch there wasn't nine hundred and twenty six thousand six hundred dollars you could get in for a mere two hundred and fifty thousand dollars i guess that's where the elderly uh hollywood celebrities go for that one the uh the early bird special at the same time helene's torrential downpour was just beginning to subside. By that time, the picturesque towns of Chimney Rock and Lake Lure, 35 miles from Asheville, had ceased to exist.

But Harris was doing public photo ops for $100,000 apiece. She's literally put illegal aliens above Americans, steering over a billion dollars away from FEMA emergency service to migrants illegally crossing our wide open border, says Restoration News. And of course, North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper is no better. Another Democrat. He's done very little to help people. Actually, DeSantis had already sent up Florida very little to help people actually desantis had already sent up florida national guard to help people and then where is hollywood the people who are given 55

million dollars to lala getting their pictures taken with her and so forth well hollywood is not anywhere to be found totally a wall on hurricane helene and in this article uh from hollywood into into two.com um they contrast this with what happened in the wake of katrina uh katrina had massive casualties about 400 1400 people who died but they heavily politicized that that's uh his idea he says uh i think that was heavily politicized if these people really cared don't you think they'd contribute a little but they're not contributing anything and you're looking what happened in the wake of katrina in new orleans hollywood took less than a week to officially respond to that crisis in 2005. Scores of musicians and Hollywood celebrities, according to NPR,

rallied to raise funds for those impacted by the natural disaster. You had a concert for hurricane relief. Could be best remembered for Kanye West's race-based attack on George W. Bush. Hollywood's charitable efforts extended to the corporate level as well. In addition to the multiple telethons and fundraising events, media companies like Disney, DreamWorks, GE,

parent company of NBC Universal, News Corp, Fox News, Revolution Studios, Sony, Time, Warner, Viacom, all of them were matching contributions to charitable organizations so where is hollywood this time when they point out you've got country music superstars luke combs and eric church have announced they're going to have a benefit concert for people who are victims

of hurricane helene dolly parton as i before, had contributed a million dollars of her own money and a million dollars from her corporations. And Morgan Whalen wrote very large checks. I don't know the amount that he wrote. They said, compare that to all the musicians who were responding to Hurricane Katrina. Beastie Boys, Pearl Jam, Harry Connick Jr., Wynton Marsalis, Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, Bono, Kelly Clarkson, Neil Young, The Foo Fighters, Mariah Kelly, Paul Simon, Garth Brooks, Diddy, Jay-Z, Patti LaBelle, and on and on. That's just a partial list, and I didn't even read the full partial list that they have. Didn't read the full partial list that they have. Didn't read the full partial list. Some of the big name actors who came out to help people after Hurricane Katrina. Sean Penn, Brad Pitt, John Travolta, Morgan Freeman, Jamie Foxx, Oprah Winfrey,

Matthew McConaughey, Richard Gere, Mike Myers, Claire Danes, Leonardo DiCaprio, Chris Rock. Again, that's just a partial list. Why the massive disparity between that catastrophe and this one? Well, Hollywood Into said, first of all, corporate media is trying to downplay the hurricane's aftermath because they don't want to embarrass Biden and Lala. But they wanted to play it up to come after Bush for political purposes, as we would see for the speeches that they would make. And then the other reason is that it's even more sinister. Any outsized hurricane relief would draw attention to the feckless response from FEMA and the Biden administration. Mayorkas said FEMA is out of money, even though they continue to feed and house illegal aliens.

Biden's tone-deaf response. Oh yeah, they're very happy. What storm? Imagine if Bush had said something like that. And yet the mainstream media doesn't even talk about it. Well, Disney contributed a lot of money. People were

suspecting that Disneyney might face a 200 million dollar hit as i said it seems to have diminished significantly by the time it hit shore and rapidly diminished after that um and so they dodged that one uh they were talking about how it might face a 200 million dollar hit but that did not happen and um then there was also projections yesterday before it was hitting said milton could trigger 175 billion dollar worst case damage scenario always everything was the worst the worst the worst case and maybe even over the top of the worst case and that's why i say the media and the politicians and the weathermen they always exaggerate and and it is um it makes it more dangerous especially when you have situations um and i think you know the the situation with helene as well as with hurricane

fran when we were in north carolina you know having watched the media and the weathermen cry wolf for so long, I looked at this and it's like, where's so far inland? That's not going to be anything. And yet, because we had about as much rain as the worst case scenario on the coast of Florida got out of Milton, we had about that much rain with Fran, even though we were all the way inland around the Raleigh area and it caused trees to come down all over the place, even though there wasn't that much rain with fran even though we were all the way inland around the raleigh area and it caused trees to come down all over the place even though there wasn't that much rain so

you never know what it's going to be and we still don't have any information about what is going on with that and we hope again we've kept our prayers a grammy for god hope that she made it through this um she may not have any power right you've not seen any comments from her okay she may not have any power but pray for her and the other people in the way of this hurricane and we can be glad that these scenarios are look like they're not going to be a situation nevertheless as they're talking about all of this money you have an article from vox saying just how doomed is home insurance it's just not just the people before this happens that say uh we're going to um have 170 million dollars billion dollars worth of damage or something like that

but the insurance industry will use everything to raise rates, just like they do with cars. They're always looking for some excuse to raise rates. And so this is an article from Vox talking about the poor insurance company and how they just, you know, I'm sure they don't want to raise rates at all, but they just have to. It's going to be harder than ever to insure your home. Another reason to get you out of your home, just like car insurance is a reason to get you out of your car. And there's a partnership between the government and the insurance companies, especially when they're required. And of course, I don't think that they have insurance requirements for your home. But if you've got a mortgage, as most people do, it's going to be required by your bank. So whenever you got something that is a required, a requirement like that, whether it's a vaccine or whether it is insurance, whether or not you want it or whether or not it's any good, price is going to skyrocket. Because they're going to use any excuse to raise the rates.

Their greed is just like the pharmaceutical companies. It has no bounds. And, you know, we're not looking, we're looking at this, we're not looking at insurance rates taking off because of climate change. We're not looking at it taking off because of hyperinflation. This is hypergreed they're really talking about. So Florida homeowners already pay the highest rates on average, more than $10,000 per year,

well above the national average of about $2,400 per year. U.S. home insurance rates jumped 11.3% on average over the entire United States. Do you think these insurance companies are on the verge of going out of business? Of course not. I mean, they took a big hit after the Trump shots killing people. That's like a once in 200 year event. I mean, we're more than three standard deviations away from the mean.

What's going on with this? It must be, we know that nobody is dying if they get the vaccine. And even though these deaths, the guy with the insurance company in Indiana won America. He said, even though we're being told that these excess deaths are not COVID, there are all kinds of other things like blood clots and heart attacks and stuff. We know that it's COVID. Even though they're saying it's not COVID, we know that it's COVID. And the other thing that we know is that nobody dies if they get the vaccine. And therefore, I say, and this is what the guy actually said.

It's unbelievable. Therefore, we know that the people who are dying are dying of COVID and they're unvaccinated people who are dying of COVID. So we need to push people to get vaccinated. Make that a requirement for insurance or something. Some Floridians have seen their rates hike as much as 400% over the past five years. So do you think this is hyper-greed? I do. I do. And of course, they're going to cover for them.

If they say anything about it in their article, what they do is they talk about, well, it's just climate change. Just one of the effects. See how climate change is going to affect you? We've got a lot of comments here. I want to read these. LT Oracle of Truth says, I'm in the St. Augustine area, and DeSantis was in front of this storm all week. He's done an outstanding job.

The main problem was all the gas stations ran out of gas during the evacuation. Yeah, I mean, nobody has done this kind of forward staging. It wasn't done by the federal government. It wasn't done by FEMA. I mean, you can trace the fact that he's got 50 000 people out there just to work on power 600 ambulances and all the rest of the stuff when a week after what happened in ashville and surrounding areas fema hadn't done anything nothing a week later he was doing all this stuff a week before. The progress retort.

Thank you very much for the tip. I sent you an email this morning and coded in Dennis Kucinich's campaign manager to set up an interview. Dennis has assisted with my local endeavors and his congressional campaign. Can you scroll that up, Karen? His congressional campaign is centered around peace. Yeah'd be interested to talk to and i know that he worked significantly with gerald cilenti uh with that and he's worked in the past with uh ron paul so i'll take a look at that thank you uh yona and awodi says fema is an extortion racket all of government is all of government is extortion and protection. And if you don't want their protection,

they're like organized crime. No, no, you got to be protected from me, right? You want to make sure your legs, I don't want you to break your leg. So you better pay me. It's an extortion racket for preferred vendors and it fights to prevent any aid or assistance from unpreferred vendors. That's what we've seen as well in the past.

Yeah, it is. That's a big part of why they shut this stuff down. But, of course, you also have people who are caught up in this bureaucratic mindset of I'm in charge here. Right. Like the little deputy sheriff. And so there's that aspect of it which makes it even worse there's also corruption and the preferred vendors and we've had people say uh no you're not allowed to bring this stuff in you don't have you didn't have my

permission you don't have my permission you're not on our preferred vendors list yeah it's been that way for years corruption is going worse with each storm. Absolutely true. And shame on Trump for not doing anything to shut it down. Or any of these previous presidents. You know, Reagan could have shut it down and should have shut it down. All of the assistance that you're going to get from government, all of this could be handled with just block grants of money. Right? Can you scroll that down let's see um m sellers did did y'all see where they're allowing some through traffic in

the smoky mountains national park but there's now checkpoints and the big rig trucks must travel at night i did not see that yeah that's one of the interesting things about the smoking mountain national park uh and it is visited by more people than it's about four times a little bit more than four times the number of people that visit the second and subsequent uh top 10 uh so it's it's because of its close proximity to large part of the population. But it's also one of the earliest parks. And so there's a public road that runs through it. That's why they can't charge people for coming into it. So it has always been free until the Biden administration,

the last year or so, put some guy in that decided that he's going to block off where people park. And you're going to have to have pay and get a ticket in order to you know a little thing in order to go in there and stop but they can't stop you because it's a public road from going through now if we had a decent republican governor which we don't he would have stopped that because it was already an agreement that they would never charge to come in so they're they're kind of getting around the edges of this stuff but yeah they have

people who can drive through there well we're going to take a quick break and we will be right back Thank you. You're listening to The David Knight Show. Let's take a look at some news. We have a trial that is going on now where the ATF is trying to extend its jurisdiction. Like every other bureaucracy, they metastasize like a cancer. Trump gave them a major play for power when he said, yeah, we're going to do this stuff by executive order. We're going to do it by the the um the bureaucracy that is 100 under the presidency yeah they make it like it's some mysterious thing uh we are going to uh drain the swamp well the swamp is underneath the white house all of it uh but yeah let's pull that up again um so we now have them as they're talking about

gun stuff um they're you actually had in testimony the government lawyer said that um government said that cap guns shoot birdshot yeah they actually said that here's what they said uh justice delito is talking um uh well you undergo a conversion but before it's converted it must be a weapon right uh and then uh preliger says oh well that's right we certainly don't dispute that it has to be an instrument of combat designed and intended to be used in this way and congress made it clear in statutory history the reason it was there that term is because objects out there toys and tools that have been well known non-weapon use but actually do expel projectiles through the action of an explosive uh a cap gun is an example of this that's right uh did you know that did you

know that cap guns um this person has obviously never had a cap gun what a deprived person uh childhood this person has had never had a cap gun no cap guns don't expel anything i had so many cap guns were really big when i was a kid um had so many of those things are no projectiles in a cap gun it's a roll of paper. And as you're pulling the trigger, it pulls that roll around. And it's got a little dot of, a very, very small dot of gunpowder. You know, when the hammer hits it, it explodes and makes this really neat smell. The kids like, that's really the smell of gunpowder.

It's great. We've also got an Afghan man arrested by the FBI allegedly planning to attack crowds on Election Day. Now, what most of them don't tell you is that he's not just an Afghan man. He's also a CIA man. He worked for the CIA in Afghanistan. So, I don't know what's going on. I mean, is this one of the situations where the FBI goes out and runs a patsy, sets them up? Or is this real and run by the CIA?

Either one of these could be true. Nasir Ahmad Tahidi of Oklahoma City told investigators after his arrest, October the 7th, that he had planned his attack to coincide with Election Day next month, and that he and his co-conspirator expected to die as martyrs according to charging documents. He arrived in the U.S. September 2021 and had taken steps in recent weeks to advance his attack plans. Including by ordering AK-47 rifles, liquidating his family's assets, and buying one-way tickets for his wife and child to travel home to Afghanistan. So he might actually be like a CIA plant instead of a patsy by the FBI. Officials say that he also consumed Islamic State propaganda. That's probably how they identified him.

Contributed to a charity that functions as a front for a militant group and communicated with one person who the FBI determined from a prior investigation was involved in recruitment. And so he and this unnamed co-conspirator, that's kind of interesting and suspicious, isn't it? Yeah, again, these things are never what they seem. When you've got the FBI and the CIA involved, who knows what's true here? This is like trying to figure out what's true here it's uh this is like trying to figure out what's going on in a war in the middle east i mean uh nobody's going to tell you the truth about anything after the two advertise a sale of personal property on facebook the fbi

enlisted an informant last month to respond to the offer and to strike up a relationship there he was already on their radar according to them because of his what he read online and who he's associated with right geospatial intelligence and the social media and the internet that's what it was always designed for by the way the informant later invited them to a gun range where they ordered weapons from an undercover fbi official who was posing as a business partner of the informant. After he was arrested, he told investigators that he had planned the attack for election day and would target a large gathering of people. So, you know, who knows? But this is what I think is interesting. He worked as a CIA guard in Afghanistan. And two sources with knowledge of the matter told this to NBC News. This is mainstream media.

This is not a conservative organization. When asked to comment, when NBC asked the CIA to comment, they declined to comment. He entered the country in September 2021, about a month after the U.S. military completed its chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan after 20 years of being there. So he was working with the CIA, and then he comes here and he does this. Well, part of what is happening in the aftermath of the hurricanes,

and, of course, this has to do with both hurricanes one um and helene it shut down baxter international in north carolina the largest iv fluid manufacturer in the country and then uh adding to that braun medical the country's second largest maker of iv fluids announced tuesday that it would temporarily close two of its facilities in Daytona Beach, Florida. Those are going to be opening up right away, I'm sure. Daytona Beach was quite a bit north of where the hurricane went. But nevertheless, I thought this was interesting because of the concentration of infrastructures. One of the problems when you've got everything controlled

by just a handful of corporations. Part of the consolidation of everything leads to this, kind of what we're seeing around the mines that are in North Carolina as well. Now, that is there because of the geographical location of these resources. But you have other things like that that have happened. I remember years ago, and I mentioned this last week when I was talking about lithium mines, how there were floods in Thailand, and all of a sudden, the supply of hard disk drives dried up, got very expensive. And that lasted for a few months because most of the world's supply

of hard disk drives was made in this one little area of thailand who knew and then when that flooded that happened so uh this is again another example of how vulnerable our infrastructure is so many things that we take for granted we don't realize just how consolidated the infrastructure is when we talk about infrastructure we don't realize how dirty it is in many cases as well this is a company called bruce pack i've never heard of before big meat producer they've now recalled over nine million pounds of ready to eat meat and poultry because of listeria being found these products were shipped to other establishments and distributors nationwide, then distributed to restaurants and to institutions.

I guess they don't sell retail. Maybe they sell wholesale. So 9 million pounds of meat recalled due to listeria contamination. And this is not Boar's Head. That's a separate one. So it was routine testing, found listeria there and so far there have been no cases of anybody sick uh this was ready to eat chicken was the source of the contamination but um we did have um uh as we have seen with cases of listeria it can take a while

for that to show up uh boar's head by the way is facing multiple lawsuits related to death and illness uh they said it can take up to it can take one to four weeks for listeria to show up but it can sometimes present itself in the same day and so boar's head is facing big big lawsuits i don't know if they're going to make it out of this or not, because they've had people who have died from that listeria. And we have officials warning consumers to throw out millions of eggs as a recall has been upgraded. This is a farm known as Milo's Poultry Farms.

They issued a recall. They're out of Wisconsin. They said there was a salmonella outbreak again there have been no deaths 65 people fell ill 24 were hospitalized with salmonella poisoning the eggs were sold to stores and restaurants in wisconsin illinois michigan over the summer but the cost of I said, has increased 147% since Biden took office. You've done a great job getting us eggs, Ken. We got eggs coming out.

We just took to people who were collecting supplies for relief and everything. We took 84 eggs down. We still got all over the place but uh anyway the um uh the cost of eggs have gone up 147 percent and part a large part of that which i don't see in this article from bright bar is all of the bird flu nonsense that is happening and um because there's one bird flu over the cuckoo's nest there in washington d. as they're shutting everything down unnecessarily. Well, one person who doesn't have to worry about the skyrocketing cost of eggs is Michael Jordan. That's right.

Take a look at Air Jordan and what it looks like now. He's got a private jet. This thing is very impressive and very expensive. He just took delivery of a brand new 2024 Gulfstream. This is a G, for those of you who are out there shopping for one. This is a G650ER. 22 seats, $7,300 per hour to fly. It'll cost about a million per year in fixed expenses. It requires a flight attendant flying 400 hours per year, the annual budget of $3.9 million before debt service. That's a Michael Jordan there.

And as I look at this, it makes me wonder if his unpleasant experience flying with Karen and I had anything to do with this. I think I've told this story before, maybe not. When I was looking to move back to the East Coast, I had some job interviews and they flew me in. At first, the company I was interviewing with in Florida flew me in. And then Data General flew me up to Research Triangle Park to do a job there.

So we went through Atlanta. And what had happened was the ACC tournament had happened. And everybody, that was the year that NC State and Jim Valvana won the tournament. They were the underdog, the Cinderella tournament. Everybody was so excited about that. They were there in Raleigh. But, of course, Research Triangle Park, you've got Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill. And in those three cities, you've got NC State, Duke, and UNC Chapel Hill that he played for.

Well, they had been picked to win because they had Michael Jordan and they unexpectedly lost. And so they had to book at the last minute and fly commercial of all things. And so we were on that plane and they came in and they asked everybody to move if you had an aisle seat.

And so Karen and I got split up and these guys came in and I can understand why they got their own private jets if they can afford them because their legs were all over the place I mean they had to sit on the aisle and have these long legs and they're sticking out everywhere it was really comical and I got moved back and the guy that I was sitting with says what there's michael jordan i said who's he i had no idea who he was and you know this is i didn't follow uh sports i didn't follow college basketball he was still in college and uh he says you don't know who michael jordan is

because this guy is going to be unbelievably rich and And so that's nice. You know, I didn't care. And so Karen is seated in a different place. And the lady comes by with some drinks. And Karen, she gave Karen something. She said, no, I want that other thing. So the stewardess gets kind of flustered and is going back and forth and trips over some of the legs that are out in the aisle and spills. What was it? Was it coffee?

No. Coke. Spills Coke all over Michael Jordan. All over his back. Okay. And I mean, these guys were expecting to win the tournament. They didn't win the tournament. They got packed into this plane and are flying and cramped commercial not commercial even they're they're uh well it's

a commercial flight but i mean they're they're just when they're back in um not even in first class or anything i don't even know if the plane had first class but uh so he gets this you would expect that you know he might blow up especially because so many of these sports guys are prima donnas and he was so incredibly nice and understanding about it we that was what amazed me that was what impressed me i didn't care about the basketball stuff i thought that's a lot of character there karen eventually wound up teaching management organizational stuff at four corporation and his brother uh took one of her classes and she said he was just the nicest guy as well

uh but um that's our michael jordan story and i guess after that expense uh that experience he's willing to buy this incredibly expensive jet just to avoid that again. And then we have this. We have museum worker mistakes a beer can artwork for garbage and tosses it in the trash. Roger Scruton would not be surprised. Roger Scruton has talked for so long. Well, he's dead now, but he did uh talked a great deal about the loss of beauty in art and architecture uh now we have art that is literally

indistinguishable from trash the people in the museum said we don't blame the person who's cleaning up it does look like trash uh But who knows how much this stuff cost. Hand-painted cans created by a French artist in 1988. Picked up as garbage and tossed into the can. French artist Alexandre Lavey, a piece titled All the Good Times we spent together uh is displayed in the museum showing what appears to be nothing more than two empty beer cans to the naked eye you know just like lala and cobert left them or something you know after her interview uh so yeah it's uh you have to be a very sophisticated elite aficionado to really discern the fact that this is not just

beer cans but it's really fine art for those the rest of us it just looks like a can of duff beer doesn't it uh so can you spot the elite art involved in all this. The person, as a matter of fact, at the museum said, well, in a way, it's actually a testament to the effectiveness of his art that it would be mistaken for trash. Speaking of trash and having trash opposing as off as some kind of artwork,

the Amazon's version of the lord of the rings series which uh travis uh travis really wanted to go i said well you know the thing debuted a year ago i said yeah but they've just done another season of it let's go back and and watch uh the first one uh and you know we'd seen the reviews about how woke it was, but it was just unbelievably bad. Now, one of the people who is putting this show together for Amazon says that this take on the Lord of the Rings, the Rings of Power streaming on their site is now claiming the showrunner is that the Tolkien classic is about climate change. Patrick McKay, one of the Rings of Power showrunners, compared the destruction of the dwarf city of Khazad-dum to climate change. The producers have chosen to make the fall of the dwarf kingdom and Khazad-dum, also known as Moria, a more protracted event. The fight over the subterranean city will stretch from season two,

which has just ended, into season three. In Tolkien's original works, the fall of the city is not described as having fallen over a long stretch of time it is just said to have fallen to the monstrous dragon known as the balrog whose fiery wrath caused the dwarves to flee their great city but the guy said this he said it's a thing where you know how does societies fall usually it's gradually and then all at once where do you get that idea from yeah that was uh that was uh ernest hemingway he said you know and his novel i think it was a sun also sets uh it's a really rich guy who lost everything so how does somebody have that kind of money like you had how do they go broke and says well gradually then suddenly and we've talked about that a great deal. And he is right.

That's what happens to civilizations and empires and things like that. It really does. But that's not what happened in the book. Just another example of how they want to reinterpret it. And then, of course, when he says that the gradually, suddenly thing, or he says all at once, he says, if you want to use climate change as a metaphor, climate change is not an event. Climate change is a process that ebbs and flows. There's always headed in a dark direction. No, it's just lies that come and go that have never been.

None of it has ever been proven. He said, I think a kingdom as great and as powerful as Khazad-dum does not fall in a moment but maybe this guy's career will it should anyway the fall is a product of many disasters over time just like his career and so uh yeah it is uh they actually have a quote here from um from tolkien we used to always um and that's one of the reasons i think travis wanted to go back and look at it you know i used to always, and that's one of the reasons I think Travis wanted to go back and look at it. I used to always get the family together and we would read The Lord of the Rings every fall. Tolkien hated the idea

that his book was about metaphor, but it's filled with Christian metaphor. I mean, it just comes out of him. And it may not have been conscious, but it's filled with Christian metaphor. I mean, it just comes out of him. And it may not have been conscious, but it's unconsciously all over the place. Perhaps more effective than C.S. Lewis, who did it intentionally. Tolkien said, I didn't do any of that stuff as an allegory or metaphor or anything.

I don't like that. I didn't do it. Well, you can see it all over the place. These people are consciously putting stuff in to push their religion which is climate change he unconsciously put it in uh with his christianity uh so as they point out it was nothing like a fall of a society it had absolutely no parallels to climate change, as they quote from the Lord of the Rings. Thus they roused from sleep a thing of terror, the flying from thing Gorodim, had lain hidden in the foundations of the earth since the coming of the host of the West,

a Balrog of Morgoth. Durin was slain by it, and the year after that named the first his son. And then the glory of moria passed and his people were destroyed or fled far away not climate change these people who do the climate change that they just can't help lying to us can they the entire production has been replete with virtue signaling about diversity and race issues as we pointed out and by the end of season one the billion dollar production had lost 63 of its audience is that all they lost travis and me

about 15 minutes into the first episode i can't believe that they had 34 of the people still sticking around at the end of the first season and it's gone down a sharp drop off after season two as well well you know one of my big criticisms when we talked about it was just how bad the music was it was all a very bad imitation of the lord of the rings movies and i said you know one of the things that really bothered me about it was um howard shore had a great soundtrack and there are recognizable, many recognizable leitmotifs in the music themes. They, you know, were melodically interesting themes and they were attached to different places or characters and things like that.

And this person didn't do anything like that at all. It's just kind of fake nondescript sounds that are there they're kind of orchestral and kind of you know they'll have uh choruses that are singing or something like that you know film music is becoming like those beer cans in the museum uh and a bad imitation something that is ugly uh this was sent to me by docu garden as a matter of fact and uh this is from a guy who does a lot of videos um uh about music on youtube he's got a big following i don't even know how to pronounce his name i don't know if it's rick beato or beato or whatever how he pronounces his name but he does have interesting videos i've seen them from time

to time and um this was sent to me he he said you know what i was talking to my young daughter and said what is the we're thinking about that who is the most famous musician of all time see if you can figure it out you know i've been thinking about some of the videos i've made recently where i'm comparing you know let's say the taylor swift versus the beatles based on that new york times article or contemporary music versus music of the past. And I thought, you know, all this stuff of trying to compare who's bigger, is Taylor Swift bigger than the Beatles and comparing music from 60 years ago to music today

is really kind of ridiculous. There's a person whose music is far better known than anyone from the Beatles or the Rolling Stones or Led Zeppelin or Jimi Hendrix to Taylor Swift to Beyonce to The Weeknd to Drake to Kendrick Lamar put together. You're probably thinking, what? No, there's someone whose music is known in every culture in the world, in the United States, all through South America, all through Asia, all through Europe. This person's music is known by more human beings than any musician's music ever in the history of human beings. And you're like, come on, Rick, give me a break. So I'm out walking with my daughter Layla yesterday, my 11-year-old, and I said, listen to this. So as soon as I started playing that, Layla's like, John Williams. Who doesn't know John Williams?

Everyone knows John Williams. Who doesn't know Star Wars? I know people that have never seen a Star Wars movie, none of them, and know that theme. That theme is ubiquitous. It is everywhere, and it's been everywhere since 1977. Just that theme, if you just think about this everyone knows that theme yeah it is interesting isn't it yeah he has great themes amazing orchestration he really is a musician unlike um uh the mtv generation where they get somebody who's attractive and have them dance while they've got auto-tune stuff in the back. That's not even music, folks. John Williams

is going to go down as one of the greatest composers of all time, no doubt about it. Back in college, even before he did the bulk of his work, there was a guy that I knew that was in a music class and he's and he was saying that at that point in time he said uh who is the best 20th century composer of serious music says john williams without a doubt when you look at it it's not just how popular he's been

because of what he did for the movies and of course we're not going to see movies that are going to be as popular as they were because you don't have that kind of artistry anymore in the soundtracks i always go back and look at the tribute that steven spielberg paid to him about et which i was not fond at all of that movie, but I did like the soundtrack. And so he shows the picture of E.T. flying on the bicycle, and he shows it silent. And then he plays it again with the music of John Williams, and it was like, whoa, that just made the whole thing come alive.

You look at the careers of Steven Spielberg, and people like George Lucas were made by John Williams. So we're going to take a quick break. Here's a little bit more of John Williams. Thank you. © BF-WATCH TV 2021 Defending the American Dream. defending the american dream you're listening to the david knight show well and thanks to uh docu garden for um subscribe star subscriber who uh passed that uh that clip along about john williams uh appreciate that and.

So we really do appreciate your support. Let's talk a little bit about masks. This whole masquerade and all the masketeers that are out there. A new study has found that we have a tremendous amount of plastic in our body, especially in our brain.

It is focused in the frontal lobe of our brain. And they found a great deal of it in nasal passages as well i wonder what it could be what have people been putting over their noses lately the gold report here yeah it's exactly what is happening microplastics are tiny shards of plastic anywhere from around five millimeters wide to just one nanometer wide. More specifically, they've been found in the brain and the frontal cortex, the part of the brain, thought to be responsible for higher human functions, such as abstract thinking, creativity, decision making, which tells us, folks, that the mask wearers are never going to figure this out. It's too late. It's too late.

It's too late. That's why I guess you still see some of the people still wearing these things. Professor Matthew Campin, author of the study, told media that the concentrations of plastics that he and his team discovered were around 4,800 micrograms per gram, meaning that they constitute about a half a percent of the brain. He noted that over the past eight years, the amounts of plastics researchers have been finding have increased quite considerably.

Now, here's the interesting thing. They do this study and they go back. They said, well, we compared it to brain samples from 2016. I wonder why they went back to 2016. Why not back to 2020 or something? Why not do to 2020 or something, right? Why not do some intermediate stuff? Well, they only have, their data point is 2016 and today.

And when they, I guess maybe when they sent Igor in to get the other brains, he dropped them or something. I don't know. I'll be normal here. Compared to autopsy brain samples from 2016 that's about 50 percent higher so they're not doing this every year again we got a data point in 2016 another one in 2024 they also observed that the most common type of plastic found was polyethylene widely used in the packaging of all kinds both hard plastic soft, such as those used in bags. A few months passed and then another study came out with a possible answer to the question of how plastics managed to enter the brain via the nose.

Who knew? The nose. New research from the University of Sao Paulo and the University of Berlin. They say the discovery of microplastics both in the nose and the olfactory bulb located at the base of the brain. Researchers found that the most common plastic in the nasal passages was polypropylene. Like polyethylene, it's used for packaging, food storage, storage both hard and soft plastics and uh so one of the professors who did the study said well i think this is because people are breathing while indoors you shouldn't do that by the way you know you should only breathe when you're outdoors but what do we do when they lock us indoors and tell us to put on a mask how many times did karen and

i drive past a couple that were in a car with the windows rolled up, husband and wife, and they both got masks on. And we were riding in a convertible with no mask. Breathing within indoor environments could be a major source of plastic pollution in the brain. Now, that's not what changed in eight years. Has there something happened in our environment, you know, that has changed everything so that you would now all of a sudden start accumulating plastic in your brain and your nose and your olfactory bulb? No. The research team also noted that the plastic fragments that they found were quite large. Some of them had a diameter of 10 microns, from which they concluded that the level of smaller nanoplastics which enter the human body is much higher than was previously thought. So the study mentioned higher concentrations of plastics also correlated with lower sperm counts. Everything that the globalists do

is targeted towards population reduction. And so this article from the Gold Report says, it's the masks, stupid. Yeah, it really is. Between 2016 and 2024, there was no particular comment on why those years were chosen, but without wondering whether there could be some reason why,

from the years 2020 onward, people's brains might suddenly be filling up with plastic via the nose, as the other study mentioned earlier noted. Oh, yeah. So, if she floats, she's made of wood. Who are you so wise in the ways of science to figure that out? Fortunately, yet another study published in a quite obscure journal, Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety in April of 2024,

set out to examine the potential of face masks for the content and the release of inanimate toxins. Hmm. This was quite an extensive piece of research as it reviewed 1,003 studies covering surgical, textile, and N95 masks. Researchers were very concerned at their findings. They said most studies, 63% of them, showed alarming results. With high micro and nanoplastics release exceedances could also be evidenced for volatile organic compounds xylene

acroline and um pfas things like that so you know again we't know. I mean, we saw when all this stuff was happening. We saw people who were frantic about all this stuff. We could see how they were getting acne over their face where the face mask was. And I talked about at the time, I said, you know, this is the reason they call them face diapers. Because your body eliminates waste through your mouth as well. And they're dirty diapers that you're wearing all day and you're getting a diaper rash on your face. Well, they say here plenty of scientists knew that already,

but they didn't tell you. The study conceded that masks do have their uses when it comes to filtering out large particles of dirt and other items that people don't want to inhale, but concluded that the risks of wearing them were considerable enough to be weighed against any benefit risk and benefits risk and benefits there's no way no way that it is going they're telling us that the viral particles which they were never able to isolate but they're telling us that these viral particles that they imagine

have a size that is so small as i pointed out the correct analogy is to say that you're going to put up a hurricane fence to keep out mosquitoes. And so, well, no, it's because it because there's a study in New South Wales of 2002 showed that after people wore these things for 20 minutes in a medical environment, that's what they were studying. They found that most of about half of the doctors and they didn't even wear them during surgery. They didn't believe it was effective. But those who did after about 20 minutes, the mask became saturated. And as a result, they would push out spittle particles that were smaller. Those smaller particles would travel farther than they would have normally and remain airborne longer. So none of it made any sense from the very beginning.

According to our data, they said they also carry risks, these masks do. Depending on the application, a risk benefit analysis is necessary. You're being exposed to potentially harmful toxins, which pose a significant health risk, especially as the toxins are right up against your noses and mouths. Undoubtedly, mask mandates have been generating an additional source of potentially harmful exposition to toxins with health-threatening carcinogenic properties at population level of almost zero distance to the airways. They cited numerous other studies, most if not all of which have received no media attention. I've never seen anybody talk about this 2002 study anywhere. Alternative media either in New South Wales.

They've drawn similar conclusions with regard to a long list of toxins found in face masks of all kinds. And by the way, that study in 2002 didn't exist in a vacuum. And the reason that came up was because New South Wales, when they first came up with the SARS outbreak in Hong Kong and places like that, everybody started wearing masks in Asia. The Australian government there in New South Wales had a massive fine. So don't you tell anybody this is going to protect them against SARS.

And if you do, something like $100,000 Australian if you sold these masks. That's why the masks say it's not going to protect you from anything, there's a reason for that there's a precedent for that it goes back to 2002 all this stuff was based on what they knew was a lie from the very beginning they also noted that such close-up and prolonged exposure to the toxins and face masks could cause bacteria to multiply and encourage antibiotic resistance and of course that you can see it as plain as the acne on their face. They pointed out that the dead space between the mask and the wearer's face is extremely unhealthy environment, even without the added presence of toxins and plastics. Humans inhale emissions from a mask at a nearly zero distance.

They swallow water droplets originating from the moist dead space enriched with mask ingredients by the way one of the other studies was talking about the fact that that you know as you're breathing in the air same same as that other study said look you're pushing out the particles that are smaller remain airborne longer travel farther same thing is true in reverse as you suck the air in uh all of these toxins and everything are getting uh smaller and it travels farther and deeper down into your lungs so it's bad for both exhaling and inhaling both for other people as well as for you they stress the difficulty in breathing through a mask leads many people to breathe through their mouth instead of their nose, which deprives them of the immune protection of the nasal passages. Meanwhile, widely read medical journals, such as the British Medical Journal, are still pushing studies on the benefits of wearing face masks.

They will never stop lying to you. Never. Do we have Tony? Yeah. Is he going to join us okay uh guard goldsmith good to see you guard uh liberty conspiracy you can find him on substack as well as on rockfin and twitter um monday through friday in the evenings at i think is it six o'clock? I think, uh, it says Darth Vader's theme is a mashup of Tchaikovsky's Slavic March and Holst. Yeah. The,

uh, Mars, the planets. Yeah, that's right. But, uh, you know,

he, he's, uh, he's not totally original, but you know, you can look at the influences of a lot of different composers over a lot of different things. Uh,

and we've got Tony who is ready for us, so we're going to take a quick break, folks, and we will be right back. The Common Man They created common core to dumb down our children. 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 thedavidknightshow.com.

Thank you for listening. Thank you for sharing. If you can't support us financially, please keep us in your prayers. TheDavidKnightShow.com All right, joining us now is Tony Arterburn of Wise Wolf Gold, and Tony has kindly set up DavidKnight.Gold. That'll take you to Wise Wolf and let him know that you came through us. It's a great place to get gold and silver. Now is a great time to accumulate gold and silver, as we've been talking about. We're going to talk a little bit more about that now, what is happening economically.

And, of course, Wolfpack, which is something unique that Tony offers. It's a large buying group that helps you to get a discount and also sign up for a fixed amount each month. It lets you do cost averaging and gradually save and gradually start to get outside of this fiat system uh thanks for joining us tony it's great to be here david good to see you good to have you on let you know i i saw this the other day and i mentioned this to you when off air bablin b said ron paul has decorated for halloween by putting up the spooky national debt counter in his front yard someone said i have trouble walking by his house alone anymore i almost fainted when i saw the 35 trillion dollars a couple hours ago this evening and it's added even more while i've been standing here talking it's scaring all the neighborhood kids well they're the ones who're going to pay

for it aren't they that's exactly right it's it's the looming demonic ghost of Christmas future, like a Christmas Carol, you know, and you get that. That's the final ghost, the ghost of Christmas future. And, uh, you know, you look at. Uh, statements from people like Dick Cheney. Remember the deficits don't matter. Remember that statement back? I think, uh, circa 2004. So one of the pioneers of modern monetary theory right there, Dick Cheney, who knew that he was such a genius, right?

We're going to test all of the Keynesian models. We're testing that right now. I mean, we've been in an experiment, a live experiment since 1971 when we went off the gold standard, free floating fiat currency. The lifespan of those currencies is generally 26 years. We've doubled it because we're the world's reserve currency. But again, every week we come on, we talk about de-dollarization, and that's happening rapidly.

We're losing that status. So that won't go on forever. Yeah, yeah, that's right. And of course, since we weaponized it, it isn't just, I think things are going to accelerate because after Biden weaponized our financial system against his enemies, they're not my enemies financial system against his enemies, they're not my enemies, but against his enemies,

since he did that, they have been very focused on coming after our financial system because that is the federal government superpower. It's how they manipulate us here domestically, and it's how they manipulate things globally. And so that is, you know, these people understand how vital that is to American power. And they're going to do everything they can to shut that down. I talked yesterday about somebody who went through hyperinflation in Lebanon and what a horrific experience that was from a personal standpoint. I'm afraid we're looking at something like that. In that particular article, the guy who wrote it was a Bitcoin aficionado,

but gold and silver, that is a physical way to get outside of a fiat system. And as he pointed out, and as you said so many times, all fiat systems are essentially going to go to zero at some point in time. It's just a question of when. Yeah, 2022 seems to be the tipping point.

If you look back through the timeline, Russia invades Ukraine. You can argue, if you know anything about history, that it was provoked. That's what NATO wanted, the Western powers wanted. As soon as they did that, the West moves with even more sanctions and seizing Russian assets. And that saw the dip of the ruble and the ruble dip for a while looked like there was their currency was going to break and then all of a sudden they made some announcements one uh their finance minister said they were no longer take dollars they said it was candy wrappers and then they said they were going to back the ruble with so many grams of gold or some sort of gram gold system where you could turn it in for that

the ruble rebounded and after that really you saw the massive acceleration in d dollarization which was i mean went from like 55 percent of global usage down to like 42 percent of global uses for the dollar and it was very quick uh and that cross-border payments increased uh using gold using crude oil uh since then uh we will be seeing saudi arabia join brix uh the united air emirates uh ethiopia several others and there's like 25 other countries that are in the periphery to join brix and that's because of the sanctions that were placed on uh countries like russia but it's it's like 40 different sanctions on 36 different countries. That's probably increased since I used that figure. I've been throwing it around for 18 months,

so it's probably increased since then. And we've given billions and billions of seized Russian assets to Ukraine. This is supposed to be settled in an international court, and they're supposed to be due process. That's all out the window. So the other countries took notice, and that's all out the window so the other countries took notice and that's why they're forming these coal even inside bricks which you know india and china not friends no you know the enemy of my enemy is my friend i think this the um i think the bullying uh by the united states the weaponization of the dollar has major blowback and the consequences we just we lost the petrodollar recently which you and i have discussed it didn't get a lot of coverage it should have if saudi's

not going to exclusively take payment in the dollar that's it it's done and they've started taking payment in other currencies and so the petrodollar is dead and so is biden's policies you know the biden cartel uh with their sanctions and things like that. Russia responded, as you point out, by taking payment in gold. And then they said, and oh, by the way, you know, we will cut prices by 30 percent. And they still wound up making a lot more money, an additional 300 billion dollars more than they would have made over a very short period of time. Because the price of oil skyrocketed because of the U.S.'s action. So they could cut their price 30%, take payment in gold instead of American dollars, and still have a windfall profit.

And essentially the same thing has happened with natural gas. Even though they blew up those two pipelines going into Germany, there is still more natural gas coming from Russia than it is from the U.S. It has been an absolute failure. Everything that the American empire has done has failed militarily and economically, and yet it's going to have tremendous blowback on us domestically. Yeah, the rest of the world isn't buying what we're selling. You know, buy and sell under our system. If you deviate, we punish you, and you have to use this debt-ridden U.S. dollar that we continue to expand the money supply with to pay for our bloated empire.

The rest of the world said no, and that's what BRICS is all about. And you really see, I think, the underlying current, and what doesn't get talked about a lot, is the massive move to commodities, just in general, whether we're talking about gold or silver i'm about crude oil energy copper uh you know mining all this uh and that's what the belt and road initiative really was about you know natural resources but that's what the other countries are doing they're moving towards commodities we continue to try to dominate you know hegemonic dominance with the u.s dollar and the american military and that is waning you could it's really happening faster than than i thought david i thought we had some

years and years left i don't think we do i mean it's especially after losing the petrodollar and there's something to that because nobody put up a fight in washington there was no like summit or can we fix this or an extension or anything. It just literally just let it lapse. And you see the rest of the world, they continue to grab up commodities. And that's really in the face of what's happening with fiat currency worldwide and especially the dollar. There's just a change. There's a change on the horizon.

I think these other countries, obviously, they know that they're running the simulation. Yeah. Well, you know, all these Western countries that kind of collectively comprise nato the group of seven and all the rest of them uh you know the u.s is uh nothing but a kleptocracy anymore they wanted to steal all the russian stuff and even the european country said no no no we're not going to disconfiscate all that we'll take we'll take the interest that's being earned and give that to ukraine but we're not going to take all those hundreds of billions of dollars out of that. But the criminal U.S. government, as we have seen with all of these European countries,

is weaponized against its own people and against its own system. You can look at it and say, this doesn't make any sense unless you realize what the bigger agenda is for the globalists, and that is to take down Western civilization, to return us back to some kind of a feudal system that is under the technocracy. That is what makes sense. That's why they're not doing anything to try to stop this, and that's why you need to get out of their system. They're pushing everybody towards a system of austerity, poverty, and total surveillance

and control. That's why I like to have physical, something that's physical, like gold and silver, that's why i like have physical something it's physical like gold and silver that's outside of their system we have to have a little bit of that at least can't get 100 100 yeah and i think where we all get in trouble is we have normalcy bias all of us do i don't care how much you know about this or how much you research because you you you've got muscle memory from living and the decades past. Unfortunately, all that's off the table and we have to be a lot more nimble, have the ability to adapt faster. My friend Charlie Robinson wrote a book called The Controlled Demolition of the American Empire along with Jeff Berwick. I've read that book and

I mean, very astute, very prescient because it was written a few years ago and just see the acceleration of everything going on with the American empire, the American dollar, the American economy. And so, you know, we have to channel our Buckminster Fuller said people cannot get out of the way of what they don't see coming. It doesn't look, you know, if you're following mainstream, it just seems like, well, you know, the stock market continues to be all time highs and, you know, we've lowered interest rates. So, you know, there's cheap money out there and every happy days are here again.

I think what we have is that the continue to inflate these bubbles larger and larger. And there was an interview by up on Lou Rockwell.com with Doug Casey. He said the same thing. At the end of the day, just continue to inflate this bubble so that when it pops, with all of these metrics and models based off of earnings and all these things that I don't think are real, when that pops and when it collapses in on itself, we're going to see a real problem economically here in this country. It's going to start. I mean, it's probably going to start in the periphery,

and then it's going to come home. And a lot of those dollars will be repatriated. We'll continue to lose purchasing power in the dollar. That's just a given. And again, the world's moving to commodities, and we're still pumping up the stock market. I think there's going to be a reckoning sooner or later. Yeah, and when you look at it, you talk about,

I don't believe these things are real. and when you look at it you talk about uh i don't believe these things are real just take a look at the jobs report which is uh supposedly the basis for them saying uh well uh even though the fed cut interest rates we're going to raise mortgage rates actually raise mortgage rates how they justify well you know we've got this uh bureau of labor statistics um i think the l doesn't stand for labor. I think it stands for lying. The Bureau of Lying Statistics. The people who told us that, just told us, that they had inflated their report by over 800,000 jobs,

the second largest false report that they've ever had. And, of course, they're always doing it as a false report and revising everything the next quarter to make trends look good. But they put out this jobs report, and Wall Street is so excited about all of it. Zero Hedge says if you look at the jobs report, you find that there's a record surge of government workers. So it's not even real growth. This is parasitic growth, and it's a record growth of government workers, if that's even real.

They can lie about that and put that in government workers if that's even real you know they can lie about that and put that in there uh but that's what they're lying about and now you know banks raise the interest rates yet again even though we've got this big spread in which they're as as the fed drops their interest rates they keep raising the rates that they charge other people and then you got wall street all excited about this this. It's absolutely fake to try to get people to think that Bidenomics works. And, you know, it's all just a stack of lies. It's absolutely amazing that it's having this effect. Well, maybe they'll bring back, wasn't it FDR had the NRA,

the National Relief Authority, or was it agency? I forget which one of the A stood for, but that's where they just had all these shovel- jobs and uh you know they would they increased the money supply because franklin roosevelt said turn in your gold and uh we'll replace it we'll give you this you know twenty dollars turn in your your twenty dollar gold piece we'll give you twenty dollars in fiat currency and then they sold all the gold or they got rid of it and went to basel switzerland and they raised the price of gold from twenty an ounce to 35 an ounce so that's what happened to the money supply in 1933 into the great depression uh how'd that work out um well i didn't didn't pose it again they uh prolonged the

depression uh it went in until uh world war ii you know they had basically inflated their way out of it so you know again um i think think that's what the lessons learned by governments and Keynesian and then the modern monetary theory is, we'll just inflate our way out. If you don't understand, especially now, it's not even technically backed by anything like it was technically backed by in 1933 to 1971 was gold. The dollar is going to lose massive purchasing power

in all of these moves, these austerity moves, because they're going to have to keep, remember what Bloomberg said, we got to figure out a way to keep them from putting us, taking us to the guillotine. You know, they know that

they have to do something because there's going to be a massive loss of wealth here in the West. We're talking about FDR having shovel ready jobs i think that's basically what's going on with these government workers and you know what they're shoveling don't you uh government workers sword is most on record uh and uh we've never seen

anything like that um and so uh you know when you look at what is happening as these things are starting to come back there there are things that are solid. There are ways that we can make some preparations outside of this. And just as we see with the weather storms, these kind of financial storms, the wars, and also going back to what is happening with CBDC and other things like that. Russia, Israel, others are still manically pursuing this cashless society, CBDC. But you talked about Russia and the fact that they're looking towards silver now more. Talk a little bit about that. I think this is a major story.

I find all these little stories. I go, wow, I can't believe this is in on every network. The Jerusalem Post put it out, but it's Russia is set to boost silver reserves and major precious metals strategy shift. Russia shifts its precious metals strategy, adding silver to state reserves alongside gold, platinum and palladium. By the way, they're buying all of those things, not just silver. But this is this has not happened in a very long time david if you read the history of precious metals like i do you know at one time um china was really the world's leader in silver i mean mexico produces the most uh but china was the world's leader in silver they you

know they imported it uh they use it as currency it was very big and then of course after the communist takeover that a lot of that went out the window. And even gold was banned for a long time in China. I mean, they still wanted it at the government, but it was banned by the people and used in the economy. So this is a major shift, in my opinion. They must be looking, obviously, looking at the future like a lot of us look at just the metrics of silver itself. It doesn't make any sense the way it's priced right now I mean just given geologically historically even the market caps of gold and silver don't make any sense it takes what 85 ounces of silver to make one ounce of gold you go and look at another metric

which I think is even more interesting which is about 824 million ounces are mined in silver this year. So that's what it's estimated. That's down 1% over last year. And most of silver mining, it just happens to be that they're mining copper and they pull silver. They're mining gold. They're not going just after silver. And it's so cheap that it's not profitable to mine. So you have a certain amount that hits the market every year but what's been happening year after year is you have hundreds of millions of ounces

that are deficits so it's estimated to this year it's going to be over 200 million ounces again of deficit so everything that's ordered on the market they have to take 200 million ounces out of the above ground supply it's not coming out of new mining or new refining so this is there's a reckoning happen even that article talks about that i mean just over and over again you see the repetition that something's off about the silver market so it looks like russia is positioning itself to to reap the harvest of that i mean not only is of course there's the green aspect or whatever you want to call it with you know being used in solar or electric cars EVs all that stuff you know silver is the most thermo conductive metal it's also used in well the military-industrial complex we talked about 500 ounces being in each

Tomahawk missile but it's used in medicine it's just across the board silver has so many uses and it's super super cheap. So I think if I'm a sovereign wealth fund, that sounds like a good idea to me. Russia's leading the way. What say the U.S.? How's our reserves doing? Is the government doing anything in the realms of precious metals? It doesn't look that way. Yeah, when you look at what our governments are doing,

the U.S., the U.K., European governments, they are not doing anything that is to the advantage of their people unlike russia and china i mean they're trying to make themselves more powerful militarily geopolitically economically even though they're making some really bad decisions like we see in china they're still trying to do things in their own interest, if not in the interest of their people, certainly the interest of the central committee that has got a vested interest in all of it. But our government is absolutely turned against us. It's kind of interesting to see that Poland

now has more gold reserves than the UK. Again, Poland is not really a part of this globalist takedown thing because it's a fairly young government that just got out of um uh after the cold war they they got out of the uh from under the thumb of the russians and so there is uh they're starting to move in that direction in terms of being puppets of the globalist uh but they are proud of the fact that they've accumulated more gold than the uk has now that truly is amazing isn't it but of course the uk has the most expensive energy in the in the world they've shut down their manufacturing the country that got

wealthy off of the industrial revolution is just eviscerating itself politically this is happening to them yeah well poland knows a thing or two about crisis uh it knows about world wars it knows it knows about economic hardship so of course they would i think they navigate to towards gold uh yeah that's a re you see these are really interesting metrics um you know the the dollar supplanted the british pound sterling uh after you know World War two and something Gore Vidal said that the British Empire and Great Britain basically became an aircraft carrier for United States of America but that's what happened it was the 19th century the gold standard was the the British really

held that that that title is being you know the world's reserve currency that's really what you went to. The gold standard really served, I think, to bolster the Industrial Revolution and sound money and budgeting. I think there was a lot of stability that was brought by the gold standard. Really, all that went off the rails with World War I. A lot of governments, especially England, made it stop trading in gold. You couldn't uh you know get your notes redeemable and precious metals anymore other countries followed they tried

returning to the gold standard uh you know after world war uh won and uh winston churchill that was he was chancellor of the exchequer and that blew up in his face it was another political failure they just couldn't do it they'd expanded their money supply they couldn't match it to their reserves of actual wealth uh so again they were they were on they were really in decline after world war one and then uh not being able to go back on the gold standard and eventually it was the united states that supplanted their currency you know the british pound sterling was right up until you know 1939 going into uh 1940 as you know, was really used more than the dollar. And now that just that was supplanted. So interesting to see history, you know, move.

And I don't think, you know, we talk every week about the BRICS. I don't know that they're going to come with some unifying currency. I just think all these countries are decentralizing and using commodities. And now we have new, you you know sophisticated cross-border payment systems the dollar is just being phased out i mean like it or not i don't like it by the way because i love my country i think people that they they don't know better and i think it'll hurt them you know that something's going to be something's done being done to their currency uh but there's going to be a horrific transition but i mean on the other other end

of it you know if we can break this superpower of the uh of the federal reserve and their fiat currency that would be something that long term would benefit americans i think but as brian and deb mccartney point out going from a debt-based economy to an asset-based and and that's why they're making these disasters in order to steal resources. And I think that's true. I mean, we look at all the stuff and how they've leveraged it. Even in Poland, they said, you know, symbolically we've passed what the Bank of England gold is. And so that's always been kind of our point of reference. And our goal is to have 20% of our currency reserves in gold and we're just about

there so i guess uh question is what do they know and uh why why are they doing that and why aren't you as an individual doing that type of thing you know we look at what the central banks are doing these are the people they got the fiat currencies everywhere and they're moving away from all that stuff towards uh gold maybe uh we ought to do that individually as well. Well, I think it's a good idea. If you look at those who control the world's wealth, I mean, that's what they're doing, and they're not telling you to do that. You can always watch what they do, not what they say. At the same time that these central banks and the banksters are accumulating record amounts of gold, they're also continuing to expand their tentacles into the reach of central bank digital currency these two things are going on simultaneously i would watch that closely because

they have a plan i mean and i think a lot of this is bailing out golden parachute whatever you think you know again whatever your your your phrase du jour you know to describe the you know control demolition or them knowing before everything crashes i think they've run the simulations and the math and you know we talked about 350 trillion dollars worth of debt worldwide is there 350 trillion dollars worth of assets really i mean they estimated it's 400 or whatever and then i look and i see the market cap of gold is is 16 trillion david that doesn't make any sense i mean i'm not an economist but how can you have hundreds of trillions in supposed wealth when the market cap of gold is 16 that doesn't make any sense i think what you're looking at is

is there's going to be again they say they call it a great reset they're going to reset all currencies and commodity pricing and uh that's what the u.s is in store for i don't know what that means for the dollar but it doesn't look good yeah and of course you know this uh the great taking and all this uh leverage of derivatives and all the rest of stuff i mean you look at what happened in 2008 uh those derivatives were really weaponized against us a paleo armory so silver is a way to go i can't afford that much gold at a time anyway and silver outperformed gold from 2008 to 2011 anyway and it will this time too the supply of silver goes down every year that's what you were saying there's just an article on zero hedge about silver could

be huge they said yeah yeah so silver just mathematically doesn't make any sense and again i don't give investment advice i just look at history i'm telling people um you know geologically it's 17 ounces of silver to one ounce of gold that's geologically estimated history shows us 10 to 20 to one maximum i mean all the way back to the egyptians um so even the romans the greeks you know the british empire ever even the american we were 16 ounces of silver to what make one ounce of gold now it's 85 ounces uh but here's another tell if you actually look at the market cap which i just mentioned of gold it's 16.4 or what a trillion or whatever it is silver's 1.4 so that's 16. and so hamilton had it had it right after all alexander hamilton that's what he pegged it to um at the end of the 18th century so i think we're looking at a reckoning so

i i think it's across the board it's not just precious metals i think all commodities the way that we've been pricing and what what truly represents wealth in the world is what i'm interested in because i see so much of it built on hype and fake and fiat. And it's hard to know. I mean, you can still use a lot of that fake stuff to buy real things, at least for now. So that's what I'm looking towards, David, is a pricing reset. I don't know when it's going to be, but that's the trend, especially with news like Russia using its silver as a reserve asset well and of course you know the other part of this that's that's we've never seen before is uh cbdc and

the surveillance state they made no secret about the fact that they intend to watch everything that we do and control everything that we're allowed to do and to purchase and so forth uh that in and of itself is something that we've never seen before. When you look at gold and silver, all of the economic pointers are pointing to instability for the long term. But we've never seen that kind of stuff with the CBDC that we've seen before. So you've got to have something as a hedge, not just against the financial unrest and this house of cards that they built, but you've got to have some kind of a hedge against what they're trying to enact, the surveillance state and this kind of mark of the beast type of system. That really is, to me, the overriding thing when I look at all this stuff.

So right now, silver, rather gold. I don't know what silver has done this last week, but I know the gold has gone down in the low 2600s now, I think. And again, these things go up and down. But all the fundamentals show that, you know, there's nothing fundamentally OK about any of the fiat currency. So we can expect to see where that's happening. One of the things I've talked about this last week, Tony, was the fact that instead of pricing everything in terms of the dollar, which is heavily manipulated, a lot of people have gone in and looked at the price of gold in a whole bunch of different foreign currencies, including Switzerland and other places, and that they're seeing a steady trend up.

You see much more manipulation and volatility if you look at gold priced in dollars. But if you look at it in these other foreign currencies, it's a much more consistent upward trend than even we've seen in the dollar. But the fundamentals are there everywhere, it seems like. Oh, absolutely. I mean, it's across the board.

I've mentioned before, there's 52 times more currency on earth today than when i was born i probably increased that's a metric from 24 months ago so this is only going to get worse and basically gold against every fiat currency gold wins over time and you know there was a period i think that gave people a false sense of reality um usually you know looking back at uh 1980 to 1999 it was like a dead space for gold and silver it's because of the you had reaganomics uh you know the the dollar dominating the world uh that was the collapse of the soviet empire there was a lot of uh you know globalization that was happening. What is it? Frank Spukiyama said that he wrote the book as the end of history, like the liberal democracy had triumphed and all these markets were raging at the dot-com bubbles and gold and silver

were flat. I mean, I think Warren Buffett took silver for a while and then decided not to go full hunt family and leave that alone. He probably got the call. Don't do that because it exposes what's wrong with the dollar so they didn't go anywhere and um you know after the opening of the 21st century and especially 9-11 and the global war on terror all the stuff that the move the move to make the chinese most favored trading status opening the wto to them on December 11th, 2001. We've just seen a massive decline in the dollar.

That's really what this is all about. It's about money velocity, usage of the dollar, and purchasing power. We used to back that up with our markets. The world's just taken notice. Again, 2009, David, the net purchasing of gold by central banks wasn't zero, but it was as close as you can get to it. They weren't buying. They were stocking their reserves and their banks with dollars. And now you fast forward to 2024, gold is second.

It used to be the dollar, and there was about about 70 and then it was the euro and then way down the bottom uh you know precious metals gold commodities um and uh after basel iii um when the bank of international settlements made uh gold a tier one asset again um that's when everything changed and central banks started buying uh gold at a record clip uh following 2009 and the great recession and tarp funds and all that you know ben bernanke said they wouldn't do that again whatever just is massively printed into oblivion so that's the trend um you want to look at the trend line the trend is is a race towards who has the gold and commodities and value in a world of fiat. And that's where I'm going. I'm not sticking with the fake.

Yeah. Oh, absolutely. Yeah. Privacy is important, and physical is important. And when we look at the house of cards that they've created, it truly is amazing. And it is all about eviscerating the West and empowering China. That's what the globalists have been doing since Kissinger opened up the path to them.

And they've just been a steady progression, iteratively moving in that direction, whether it's energy, manufacturing and all the rest of the stuff. And, of course, energy is going to drive the manufacturing if they've got it at a big advantage. But even in China, they are getting very concerned and you've got articles talking about the china doom loop so we're looking at some very uncertain times and we know what the long-term trend is we can't predict the price any given point but we know what this trend is going to be uh pretty pretty clearly uh tell us a little bit about what's coming up you got your programs going to be following immediately following this one on thursday tell people about that and give us an idea what's happening with um with wise wolf gold

yeah every thursday art of burn radio transmission i used to do a daily show and i can't i can't do what you do and uh i've filled in for you one time and i remember telling you um like filling in on your show is like i'm gonna borrow your car it's a cadillac i'll bring it back it's even nicer than when i borrowed it i fill up the tank with gas. I clean it, and that's how I handle your show. My show, if you want to come watch it, it's like the Duke's a hazard car. We get a new one every week. I crash it. We'll see what

happens. It's parapolitics and precious metal, kind of a hodgepodge, stream of consciousness, and it's been fun. I try to be consistent with it. So yeah, come check us out at 11 a.m. Central Time on Rockfin on America Unplugged channel. And you're on Twitter as well, right?

Yes, I'm on Twitter at Tony Arterburn. You can find me there and go find me on Facebook and friend me. I got a little meta blue check marks. You know, maybe it'll make it harder on them to cancel me. I don't know. I've had it for years. I really, you know, go find me over there.

It's a good place to network for now anyway. I don't know. I've had it for years. I really, you know, go find me over there. It's a good place to network for now. Anyway, I haven't been bothered that much in the recent years. So yeah, please do that. We stream over there. I have a really cool announcement. I just,

it's only half of the announcement next week. I'll have something even cooler, but we have a new setup on, on Wolfpack. And so if you go to davidknight.gold and you just hit the tab that says join wolfpack you'll take you to wolfpack.gold uh i wanted to thank yeka yeah because who works for me she's my head trader she put together and this has been my idea for a while there's two separate tiers so um one is for gold one is for for silver. That's how we're starting. It's called

Wolf Picks. Okay. It's just called Wolf Picks. And what it is, is every morning we set the price of gold and the price of silver. And if you go on there, it's no fees, free shipping. So you can't use a card, but you have to basically give us an email. We send you a payment link for a check, but we set the price of gold to the most competitive we can do it. We look across the board at all our competitors. We set a set price in the morning and then we take it down in the evening and the same thing for silver so if you want to get the best possible now we don't know what that's going to be because a lot of stuff comes into the shop i might buy a bar i might buy a coin you could get a graded american eagle long as it's a long as it's a specified i want one ounce

of gold tony or i want you know it's it's a minimum of 10 ounces of silver so if you lock the price like right now we just set the price at 35 an ounce on silver silver bullion you could get American Eagles you could get sovereign coins we don't know we're going to fill those 10 ounces with free shipping now you can go all the way up to 10 000. so it's a way for you to lock in trades like the best possible deal and then we take the prices down in the evening and reset them in the morning sometimes we may not it may be too volatile even listed but it's one of the ways that you can kind of a surprise too you know it may be a maybe a bar it may be two bars it may be something that i have to fill your order

give you an ounce that's what i'm going to do so uh it's it's a way that because we buy so much from the public you know like and a lot of that stuff doesn't go into wolfpack because it's too expensive yeah um like no there's not a tier really for an ounce of golf on wolfpack so i just made one you can you can do it it's not automatic but you just go and buy one at a time so that's cool that's cool i like what do. You are constantly thinking of different ways that that you can help people. And so now, in addition to Wolfpack, we got Wolf Pick on a daily basis, setting a price for gold and silver based on the kind of things that you're you're bringing in in terms of buying that when we come back. It's not about gold or silver. Always great to have you on, Tony. And again, folks, right after this show, you can find the Artaban radio transmission and join Tony there. And he's going to talk to you some more about politics and about metals and all the rest of the stuff.

And that's something that we really need to focus on, especially when we look at how this is a plan. This is a plan to take everything down. So you've got to try to get outside of their plan. It's not like they're just incompetent. No, they're unfortunately a bit too much competent combined with their plans. So it's always great to have you on, Tony. Folks, go to davidknight.gold,

and I'll take you to Tony Arderman's Wise Wolf. Thank you, Tony. Folks, go to DavidKnight.gold, and I'll take you to Tony Arteman's Wise Wolf. Thank you, Tony. Appreciate it. Thank you, David. Folks, we're going to take a quick break, and we'll be right back. Here's a little bit of La La for you. Let me tell you, the David Knight Show, you can listen to with your ears. You can even watch it by using your eyes in fact if you can hear me that means you're listening to the links to everywhere to watch

or listen to the show at the david night show.com that's a website right and um dj fs uh says uh shoot i just checked on another device and your likes on this video are not being shown. It says zero after two hours of the show. And I already liked it. Everyone liked the show right now. I appreciate that. It is, you know, that's the frustrating thing about this. It really is.

There's so much headwind and all this stuff um you know people talk about uh well you know the government is conspiring to do this and conspiring to do that i've that's been my life um it's uh to watch the government conspired to shut me down every which way they can so i really do appreciate um those of you who um like the show while it's live and other things it is interesting to see the different things that they will go to again i have offended some of the powers that be and i take that as a point of honor let's talk a little bit about what is happening it's interesting stuff is happening with the trump bibles and also with homeschooling. And I mentioned this the other day, these homeschool moms. I keep seeing these articles brought up over and over again.

They have a lawsuit that's going on because Arizona decided that they were going to give subsidies to people to homeschool. And I have always advised people to not take that money. Don't take the money. It always comes with strings attached. It always does. And so I've always said the argument when we were doing homeschooling, everybody said, well, you know, we want to do sports, or we want to do band or whatever, and we need to have state money for this.

I said, don't do it. They're going to put standards and other things like that. So they were getting money from the government for pencils and for books and things like that, and now the government wants you to tell them and to justify you know books especially you know the pencils flash cards and erasers they were using it for that but they want to know what your curriculum is and they're going to set in judgment of that and so one of the mothers who's suing said the government is changing the rules and putting impossible burdens on me never saw that coming did we that's what they always do all of a sudden

we have a government telling us what we can and cannot teach that's because you took the bribe and i just mentioned this not to criticize them but that's the nature of government when are people going to realize i've had this argument with people about Trump and his bribery as part of the lockdown stuff. People don't understand that's how the government operates. Trump understands that. He's now making promises. I will withhold their money if they don't do what I want them to do. They always throw the money out there.

They get you hooked on it, and they pull it back. We've seen Obama do it, Biden do it, Trump do it. They all do it biden do it trump do it they all do it so um i've also talked about the fact that the state of oklahoma has decided that they want to put bibles in all of the schools and have teachers teach it and i have also been adamant about the fact that this is something that i think is just too important. It's too important to outsource the raising of your children, the education of your children, especially about the most important things. What is an education for, as a matter of fact? I've talked many times about Earl Dabney, who after the Civil War, he said, you look at the government schools in Massachusetts, he said, I blame the Civil War on them largely, the kind of they were used as social engineering.

And he said, how are we going to have government schools? Government school by its nature, if it's going to try to educate people, is going to be getting involved in the free exercise of religion. Because an education is not simply about reading writing and arithmetic it's not about any kind of technical information as much as it is about establishing character and all the rest of stuff if you go to the homeschooling conventions as we did 30 years ago began looking at it. I guess it's still the same way. You can go back and you can find all the textbooks and things like that that were being used by parents,

by their associations of local school boards and everything. They were all based around character. They were all based around the Bible. They were based around Christianity. But that was what they were focused on. And so I'm not trying to purge Christianity out. I'm trying to purge government schools out. And you need to not entrust the most precious things that you have, your children and their souls and their minds, to the kind of people that we've seen running these institutions.

Institutional corruption is just beyond belief, and I can't believe that people are still buying into it. Having said that, it gets even worse when you look at what is happening in Oklahoma. This is coming from Reason Magazine, and they point out that the guy who is the head of schools there, Ryan Walters, strict stipulations, make it clear that he's steering Oklahoma schools to purchase not just Bibles, but Donald Trump's Bibles.

Oklahoma's push for Bibles and schools comes with a Trump-sized price tag. And so when you look at his specifications for the Bible, well, first of all, he came in. This is Oklahoma State's of Public Instruction. And he is a big supporter of Trump, Ryan Walters. And he says that every teacher, every classroom in the state will have a Bible and will be teaching from the Bible in the classroom.

How do you feel about that? Seriously, do you want somebody that has a completely different understanding of the Bible teaching your children? Do you want people who have animosity towards the Bible as so many of these teachers we see on TikTok do? Do you want them teaching your kid from the Bible? I mean, what we would do is I would teach my kids evolution because I would want them to understand the controversy and we would teach both sides of it and we'd say, here's why this is true and here's why that is false.

And you know, the teacher is going to be doing that with the Bible there. We need to shut down public schools. It's an idea that has failed, but this kind of harkens back to its creation. As public education was created, it was created by a lot of people who said, well, we've got a lot of families out here who aren't teaching Christianity to their kids, so we're going to do it in the schools, and we're going to make these kids so that they are more, we're going to have a more moral society. And we're going to have people who are ready to work in the workforce. We're going to prepare them for the corporations.

That is, we've heard that at the very beginning of this. That was a stated intention. And yet exactly the opposite has happened. We've got people who can't tie their shoes. And we've got godless schools that are grooming kids sexually and all the rest of this stuff. It's like straight out of Brave New World by Huxley. And so I think that is a fundamentally bad idea.

But then at September's Oklahoma State School Board of Education meeting, Walters requested an additional additional three million dollars so total he wants is six million dollars for bibles and their new king james version bibles was what he had to say but then when the bids opened up last week for 55 000 bibles it went back to the king james version now for those of you who don't know king james version has been around for a very long time there is no copyright on it the only cost that you have is the cost of printing on it really you have to pay anybody for it any of the newer translations including the new king james version and all the other

translations have copyrights still associated with them. You might have a translation that is owned by, for instance, Zondervan, one of the Bible publishing things. And so that is a part of the cost. But if you're going to go to King James, the price should go down. But he specified, changed it from New King James to King James, and then he added this. It must include copies of the U.S. Pledge of Allegiance, the U.S. Declaration of Independence, the U.S. Constitution, and the U.S. Bill of Rights. Oh, and it must be bound in leather or leather-like material. Well, as Reason pointed out, there's only one Bible that fits all those specifications. There's only one Bible that has got all of those political documents added to it.

That's the Trump Bible. So the Oklahoman reported on Friday that none of the 2,900 Bibles carried by Mardell Christian Bookstore meet Walter's qualifications but the trump endorsed god bless the usa bible fits the bill fits the bill like a grift lined glove a second bible that fits the uh request for proposal was also identified as the we the people bible that is endorsed by Don Trump Jr. Oh, the junior, the grifter in training, right?

Isn't that amazing? And that's available for $90. And you can get the Trump Bibles for $60. Of course, if you want a signed one from Donald Trump, it'll cost you $1,000. So what are they going to be paying for? Well, the superintendent's request is for $6 million to buy 55,000 Bibles. That breaks down to $140 per Bible. So what you could buy from the Trump Bible website for $60,

Oklahoma is going to pay $140 for that. And Walters thinks that he's come up with a way to send Trump his share of over $3 million of taxpayer money. Yeah, he really has the best interest of your children at heart, doesn't he? He just wants to teach them all about Jesus. But no, it's all about sending money to his Messiah. This is disgusting. And this is what we see all the time from these politicians. Like I said, you want to mix politics with religion?

You're going to wind up with politics. Don't let other people teach your children the most vital things. You know, it's far more important. It was a big thing when we were homeschooling our kids. People get these bumper stickers. I have an honor student at such and such a school, right? I said, well, we need to get one made up and say I have an honorable student. And we had to have a name for our school.

I have an honorable student at the name of our school. Isn't that really what we're trying to, what good does it do to have somebody who has absolutely no moral character, but is very smart and highly educated? That just makes them more dangerous, doesn't it? Do you really want your child to be like that? Former Oklahoma Attorney General said this RFP may violate state law. It appears to me that this bid is anything but competitive. The special binding, for example,

and the inclusion of government documents will exclude almost all bidders, except for one. Oh, yeah. I wonder what he had in mind who knows um what uh what these guys were up to i think it's pretty clear well um here's then it gets even more interesting because it just came out uh yesterday Trump has had his Bibles printed in China. And this is amazing on a number of different levels. The people who are talking about this in politics are saying, well, he's always criticized China. You know, we're losing all of our manufacturing to China. Well, that's one aspect of it.

But the other aspect of it is in China, the Christian persecution that goes on there is absolutely astounding. But again, just like Donald Trump, the Chinese Communist Party doesn't have any principles when it comes to money. They'll do anything, right? They'll still continue to imprison Christians. They'll still use them for organ harvesting, removing the organs while they're alive, as they do so many other political and religious prisoners. But they'll make money shipping out Bibles. The estimated cost of three shipments from China was $342,000, which would mean that the Bible costs less than $3 each to manufacture in China. And that is not surprising at all i mean people give away king james bibles you get one that's got a cheap binding on it or something

like that people you know you can pick those up retail very very cheaply and so the idea that he'd get these bibles printed use king james version that is uh he doesn't have to pay for that it's only the cost of the printing get it printed in China where the cost of printing is extremely low. The minimum price for the Trump-backed Bible is $60, putting the potential sales revenue at about $7 million. But of course, it's going to be twice as much as that for Oklahoma, more than twice. You can pick up a Trump Bible that cost him $3. You can get it for $60.

But hey, if it's filtered through his pal, his supporter in Oklahoma, well, he can sell that $3 Bible for $140 to the suckers in Oklahoma. Elmer Gantry comes to mind. Some kind of a hustling door-to-door Bible salesman. If it couldn't get any worse. This Bible is a reminder that the biggest thing we have to bring back in America and to make America great again is our religion, says Trump. Well, what is his religion? There's a real question about that.

I don't think his religion is my religion. Pretty much everything that he does is condemned uh for followers of christ and i don't think he believes christ is the messiah either i don't think his family does he was just this last week he was you know going through rituals and praying to a dead jewish messiah the shabbat lubevich guys is raberson. They think that he's the Messiah and that he's coming back. And Trump was there offering prayers and things on October the 7th. So our religion, I don't know what our religion is when he says it. But Trump didn't say where the God Bless USA Bibles are printed, where they are, or what they cost. And again, if you want to get a hand-signed one from Trump, it'll cost you $1,000.

They also have a new version of the $60 Bible that memorializes the July 13th assassination. And, you know, picture of him, I guess, and the phrase, the day God intervened. That's on the cover of the Bible. For years, Trump has castigated Beijing as an obstacle to America's economic success, slapping hefty tariffs on Chinese imports, but hey, maybe not on his Bibles. But the issue that AP is not going to talk about, of course, is the Christian persecution that's been going on by the Chinese Communist Party.

They don't really care about that at all. They'll occasionally say something about Muslim persecution, but they're not going to talk about Christian persecution. Tim Wild Smith, a Baptist minister who reviews Bibles on his YouTube channel. He said he quickly noticed the signs of a cheaply made book when the God bless USA Bible arrived, wrapped in plastic inside of a padded mailer. He said it had a faux leather cover. Words were jammed together on the pages, making it hard to read. He also found sticky pages that ripped when he pulled them apart. And there was no copyright page or information about who printed the Bible.

Well, of course, there's not going to be a copyright page on a King James Bible. I was shocked by how poor the quality of it was. It says to me that it was more about the love of money than, he said, the love of our country. Well, Bibles aren't about the love of our country. They're about the love of Christ. Florida is threatening a local TV station with prosecution over a dangerous pro-choice ad. And again, folks, look, I'm all about the Bibles.

I don't like to see this kind of thing being done. And I'm all about protecting life. But the state of Florida, the Florida Department of Health, sent a cease and desist letter to a Florida news station after it aired an ad that claimed that women with cancer would be unable to get abortions in the state. Now, this is patently false. But this article from Reason points out that that doesn't matter does it i mean do we really you know we can look at this and the state can make a state a case that this is false but um false claims are the staple of political ads aren't they i mean it's we always have one side

saying something and contradicting the other. And it's rare if one side is telling the truth. Usually they're both lying. But the remedy to bad speech or to false speech is to have more speech, to have true speech. It's not censorship. And this is a problem that I have with DeSantis. Look, he's done a great job with a lot of things. He's done a great job with the storm preparation, as I mentioned. But, boy, does his administration have no understanding whatsoever about the importance of free speech.

He enacted censorship laws and hate crimes and stuff like that, signed it in Israel because he's looking for money when he did that. And now we have the Florida Department of Health coming after this advocacy group that is pushing for abortion. And again, you know, the issue is important. But if we lose our ability to be able to have free speech, if we're going to have government minders who are going to say you can say this, but you can't say that. And they're saying that now they're talking about, well, that's dangerous speech, what you're saying about FEMA. You better shut up. Or pick any topic, right?

I mean, this has been my life for the last eight years. Can't say anything about this. I don't like what you're saying about that, so we're going to punish you. And it's going to get to the point very quickly. It's already ramping up. We're seeing this happen in multiple nations, in Australia, in the UK, others where they are locking people up now because they don't like your speech. It's not just kicking you off of social media or off of broadcasting.

It's not even at the point where they're going to give you fines. They're going to actually lock you up, put you in jail because of this. So there's this metastasizing tyranny of free speech that is going to affect everything. And it's going to keep us in the long term. It's just like when we talk about nationalizing the abortion laws. In the long term, what it's going to do is prevent you from helping to save the lives of babies. Because what we're talking about here is a totalitarian government. The ad produced by the advocacy advocacy group floridians protecting freedom depicts a woman discussing how she was diagnosed a terminal

stage 4 brain cancer while 20 weeks pregnant in order to start treatment to prolong her life she needed an abortion the doctors knew that i did not end that if i did not end my pregnancy i would lose my baby i would lose my life and my daughter would lose her mother. Florida has now banned abortion, even in cases like mine. Amendment 4 is going to protect women like me. Well, they responded, and they said that's absolutely not true. The department's letter says that, to the news station, says you can't air this ad because its content is false and dangerous,

therefore subject to the Florida law banning sanitary nuisances. Sanitary nuisances? Do you see how this is going to be weaponized for things like vaccines and other germ games? We got laws against sanitary nuisance. And so you got to shut up. Wow. Wow. Anything that threatens the health or the lives of individuals.

Now, that means all of what I have to say that they don't like. I mean, you know, I got kicked off of Vimeo because of misinformation about vaccines. Now, I'm telling you the truth about vaccines. And if they don't think it's the truth, they ought to come out and say what they disagree with. They won't even say what they disagree with. And I know what they disagree with. They disagree with the fact that I criticize the pharmaceutical companies. They disagree with the fact that I talked about how they have bought the media.

And they have. And they bought the people who censored me as well. Vimeo. But if you don't agree with what I have to say then fine you know you got a big platform why don't you put something out there and say what i got wrong but they won't even specifically say you're just not allowed to criticize the pharmaceutical industry and i do more than criticize them i call them what they are murderers they're absolutely murderers they'll do anything for money and they love harming people because that's what the

government wants out of this agenda. The department argued that because Florida's abortion law allows for abortions to prevent serious risk of, quote, physical impairment of a major bodily function, Caroline would have, in fact, been able to get an abortion under Florida's law. So yes, they are lying. But I don't want the government shutting down somebody because they are lying. Look, if you've got remedies for defamation and other things like that, it is, you know, they can sue

them for that. Other people can sue them for what they have to say. But government censorship should never be allowed under any circumstances. As Reason said, even if it were clearly true that Caroline would have been able to obtain an abortion under Florida's law, and it is true, the state can't simply force a broadcaster to take down an ad, especially when it's political. That speech is squarely protected by the First Amendment,

even if, as the state claims, it contains false information. Certain kinds of false speech fall outside the First Amendment's protection, like defamation and fraud. But what they're talking about here is saying, well, you have a speech that is false and dangerous. It is a sanitary nuisance that threatens the health or the lives of individuals Wow reason says the Supreme Court's been clear that the First Amendment doesn't give the government free-floating power

to suppress speech merely based on its judgment that it is false or misleading you see that's the problem the judgment of whether or not something is false or misleading. You see, that's the problem. The judgment of whether or not something is false or misleading has to belong and reside with we the people, not they the government. That's the difference between freedom and tyranny. Just that simple. If they're going to be the arbiters of what is true and pretend that they have to protect us from lies that we can't figure out, This is easily, easily shown to be false. And it is easily shown that this approach is being taken by yet another Florida agency is going to ultimately lead to tyranny.

They're already doing this. Typically, the state doesn't do it. Typically, what the state does instead of doing it directly, in America, they do it through surrogates through social media uh through you know search engines through youtube and things like that that's typically how they operate and so you see at the same time desantis for a reason that i would agree with to try to protect the baby's lives is saying you can't lie about what our pro-life law says we have usa today saying the paths saying anything about hurricane paths and fema response uh spurs dangerous misinformation usa today is saying this is dangerous and you can't say anything about what fema is doing you see

they're going to gag you over this now while they push on climate change? Officials leading the recovery effort have had to fight more than just storm damage. Falsehoods and conspiracy theories about FEMA have spread widely online. Poor FEMA. Did you realize that the true victims of Hurricane Helene

are FEMA? I wish we could wipe FEMA off the map. I wish we could sweep them away and a flood of public anger. That's what I'm trying to do. I'll tell you what my agenda is. My agenda is to just flush them down the river, that toxic waste that we call FEMA. But these efforts, FEMA's efforts, says USA Today, are being complicated by false claims that the agency is not helping people. That they don't have the money to help or that they're getting in the way or, and listen to this, uh,

to say that people affected by the storm are only getting provided $750 in assistance. That was said by a Lala. So now you're telling us that Lala lied. Uh, USA today doesn't really understand the consequences of their propaganda. That's the logical conclusion is that Lala lied. If it's not just $750, well, then that's, I guess she lied to everybody.

And essentially she did because there's that one mayor who was being interviewed on Fox News, Sarah Carter. And he said, yeah, this is an insult, $750. And he said, and then my daughter who lost everything, they would only give her $300. And he said, that doesn't even cover the food that she lost in her freezer. So this,

uh, USA today article says, well, here's some of the hurricane related claims that USA today has debunked. You know, that harp was used to control the path of the hurricane. Helene, our rating is false and so forth. You know, it is not used to control the path of the hurricane helene our rating is false and so forth you know it is not possible to control weather well um i guess the cia director brennan

disagrees with you why don't you call brennan a liar why don't you call lala a liar uh the biden administration spent fema hurricane relief money on illegals. False, they said. Well, I tell you, you know, I don't need, I don't need government to come in and shut down USA Today. I know they're liars. I can look at this stuff and I can, you know, I can look at what the people on the ground are saying. I know what the experience is.

I know what's been reported. I know what their own politicians and CIA people have said. USA Today is lying to us, but I'm not calling for USA to be shut down. I'm calling for them to be ignored. Just like I do some of the alternative mainstream media. It's like, just ignore what Alex is telling you. I'm not calling for him to be shut down. Just ignore it because he's misleading you and so are these people as well um and in australia up to five years in prison for

what they would call hate speech and they have now redefined it it used to be the hate speech in australia was to hate somebody because of race and religion now what they have added to race and religion is any speech that they would consider to be hateful about gender identity, sex, sex characteristics, sexual orientation, and on and on. So if you don't use their pronouns,

you could literally go to jail. This is why what DeSantis is doing in support of pro-life, these principles and these structures matter. And the end does not justify the means. Offline, these laws will apply to both public and private interactions and conversations this is a rewrite of the racial and religious tolerance act and why not because they really

got a new religion don't they that's what this truly is about it's about their new religion well kirk cameron is urging christians to vote their values for a spiritual comeback don't you remember that in acts where peter stands up and says repent and vote for the salvation of your soul right i don't remember that being in there and maybe i have to go back and check the greek i don't know i don't think that's there i don't remember that being in there. And maybe I have to go back and check the Greek. I don't know. I don't think that's there. I don't think that's how we have a spiritual comeback. Look, and I like Kirk Cameron, and he's been very good in terms of exposing what's going on with this drag queen stuff.

I don't want to criticize him too much, but it's not about the voting, folks. It really isn't. It's about our kids. It's about schools. It's about taking responsibility for our lives. Get over this obsession that is shared by him and so many big preachers and religious leaders and all this stuff. They are so focused on politics, and they're missing what needs to be done with themselves and with their family kirk cameron is urging all americans of faith to vote their values well that's what i intend to do that's why i won't

vote for either lala or trump i'm not going to vote for evil i'm not going to vote the lesser of evil there's good and there's evil there's not 52 shades of gray or whatever that movie was right is it 50 shades i don't know what it was um but you know there's it's black and it's white okay it's not all these shades of gray there's no moral ambiguity here it's pretty clear and um i could uh look at this stuff and I could make some kind of a judgment on it if we didn't have the things that happened in 2020 with the lockdown, the closure of churches. And so now I see these people

who've fought the lockdown orders, who fought Fauci, who hate the vaccine, who fought the vaccine mandate. Now they're pushing for the people who created all this stuff, the lesser of two evils. And we got people out there. We got a group called Evangelicals for Lala. Boy, you talk about an oxymoron.

But he says, I believe with all my heart, says Kirk Cameron, that it is and that God did not create us and rescue us through the gospel to be cowards. Well, I agree. And Kirk has been very bold in terms of standing up to these people. He's done some very effective things. But I just think that

if you really understand what's going on in Washington, you're going to see that you're wasting your time. You're wasting your time. You're looking at the wrong thing. He said, we have to realign the nation

with heaven's values. You're not going to do that. That's not within your power. You can realign yourself. You might have enough influence on your kids. Maybe, not always. You can't even reliably influence your kids. I've known so many people who have been strong Christians who have work so hard with their kids and they don't go in that direction um you know it is this is something between them and god god has a hand in this you can pray for it but you can't realign even your own children let alone the nation with heaven's values what we can do is we can be unashamed in declaring what heaven's values. What we can do is we can be unashamed in declaring what heaven's values are. That's really what the evangelical is about. It's about a proclamation. It isn't about winning the argument. It's about speaking the truth.

And what a reproach it is to Christians to line up behind either Trump or Lala. That's a reproach to Christ. I would never associate the Lord Jesus Christ with either of those two people in any way, shape, or form, let alone say that this is how we're going to restore the nation to Christian values. He says, in the words of Noah Webster, every civil government is based on some religion or philosophy of life. Absolutely. Absolutely.

Everything is downstream from your worldview, from your religion. Everything in your life, everything in the society. He said America is a foundational religion that was Christianity. And he said itica uh it's a foundational religion that was christianity and he said it was sewn into their hearts for two centuries through the home and school public and private well no actually i think it is um i think it's sewn into your heart by god and it's not home and school it's parents taking their job to school their own children.

When you walk with them in the way, when you walk with them in the way, you teach them the principles, you point out what is happening and make that relevant. See what's happening over there? See what's happening in society? The Bible has spoken about this, and we understand what that's about. That's what you've got to do with your kids. He says our foundation needs to be biblical, moral, and spiritual values. Well, again, don't compromise those out of fear.

Don't compromise those out of partisan loyalty. You see, the philosophy of life that your children are going to be getting in school is going to be a Marxist philosophy. It's going to be a fear of climate change. It's going to be the debauchery of LGBT. It's just when you look at what people are doing. Here's a good example. Billy Graham, Evangelistic Association, is threatening to sue.

Again, they don't like speech. Just like DeSantis, we don't like. You're lying about our pro-life ad and we need to protect babies. And I agree with all that stuff. They are lying and we do need to protect babies. But they're going to intimidate the radio station and tell them, no, you can't say anything

that might put somebody's life at risk or something like that. Whatever the public health people are claiming, I just read it to you. But no, we don't want to have that you but no we don't want to have that system and we don't want to have a system where the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association is threatening to sue evangelicals over an anti-trump ad and I'll play this for you what what it amounts to is you have they took these evangelicals for lala i think we call them lala

jellicles they have absolutely no idea what their religion is who they're following what the bible teaches if they're supporting lala they're lala jellicles uh they're clueless about what's happening they're just as clueless as she is but what they did with this um with this commercial is actually pretty good they took a short little statement that was made part of a sermon where billy graham is preaching and he's talking about um you know uh christian values and stuff like that and and what they do is they have him say something, and then they have Trump doing exactly the opposite, okay, saying exactly the opposite.

And, you know, when I look at that, so the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association wants to sue to take that down. And I'll tell you the basis of why they say they want to sue after I play this for you. But it truly is crazy. But you must realize that in the last days, the times will be full of danger. Men will become utterly self-centered and greedy for money. My whole life I've been greedy, greedy, greedy.

I've grabbed all the money I could get. I'm so greedy. They will be proud and abusive. You've called women you don't like fat pigs, dogs, slobs, and disgusting animals. Uncontrolled and violent. I'd like to punch him in the face, I'll tell you. They will be treacherous, reckless, and arrogant. I am the chosen one.

Loving what gives them pleasure instead of loving God. know I'm automatically attracted to beautiful I just started kissing them it's like a magnet maintain a facade of religion but their lives deny the truth have you ever asked God for forgiveness that's a tough question I'm not sure I have I don't bring God into that picture i don't keep clear of people like that okay well you know what's wrong with that see what needs to be done is we need to have i need to expand that and have billy graham say those true things then have the trump quote and then the la la quote and the next one he says something and then you have quote, and then the La La quote. And the next one, he says something, and then you have La La, and then you have Trump. Both of them are completely at odds with Christian values.

Now, my question for the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association is, are you backing away from the truth that Billy Graham was saying there? And I'm not a Billy Graham supporter. I mean, Billy Graham thinks he bought into this stuff, the wideness and God's love type of thing, the same stuff that you're hearing from the Pope, for example. You know, everybody's going to heaven. I don't believe that, frankly.

And I'm not going to give people that kind of false assurance. But look, what he was saying there was absolutely right so do they not like the fact that somebody is putting out what billy graham says right or they like the they don't like the fact that they're criticizing trump look there's a lot more that you could put in there about trump to bolster each and every one of those things i mean they didn't show him partying with jeffrey epstein they just said yeah i just i see beautiful women i'm just going to go over and kiss them and they let you do that because you're a star right um but they said well uh you can't show this uh because it is copyright infringement

no it's not it's fair use it's fair. They're commenting on what he has done. And so are you ashamed of the truth that Billy Graham is a Billy Graham Association? Ashamed of the truth that Billy Graham is saying there? Or are they just trying to support somebody who is the antithesis of everything that billy graham is is promoting in that clip uh the person who is the epitome of everything that billy graham in that clip is telling us we have to watch out for in the last days could have gone on and said lovers of self i mean that sums it all up pretty much for these politicians it's a one million dollar ad campaign from the la la jellicles think that that's not all true of their sex worker candidate

uh two ways a school complex muzzles parents and students this is from mises.org uh look you know the Billy Graham foundation in my opinion ought to be fighting the public schools instead in public health instead what they're fighting is free speech instead what they're fighting for is Trump right man I tell you this is why when I say you mix politics with Instead, what they're fighting for is Trump, right? Man, I tell you, this is why when I say you mix politics with religion, you wind up with politics. Let's not talk about the fact that Trump is doing all of those things. Their response to the Billy Graham Foundation, if they don't like that and they like Trump,

what they ought to do is they ought to just do one with Lala, not one with Lala and Benedict Donald. Just they could do the same thing with her. It'd be very easy. I think the ideal thing is to put out a commercial that shows both of them for what they really are. I object to all this because they appear to be trying to set Trump up as some kind of a moral leader in everything that they do. He's anything but that. He's immoral as a leader, even if he were to hit the right policies. And you can't trust him on those policies.

I said, when he started doing the stuff that he was doing in 2020, I said, what do you expect from somebody who has thrown out three women and bragged about it? And we saw him do that to everybody that was in his cabinet, pretty much. Bring them in. Oh, this is the best person in the world for this or that. Flattering them over the top. Then throwing them out and mocking them endlessly after he does that. And that's what he always did with his that. And that's what he always did with his wives.

But that's what he always did. That's what he did in 2020 with the Constitution. And I said, do you think that somebody who won't pay attention to the oath that he took for his wife, you think he's going to pay attention to the Constitution? Just as unfaithful to the Constitution. He divorced the Constitution in 2020. And from a secular standpoint, I can't support him. From a religious standpoint, I think these people are a reproach to support him.

A Syrian girl says, and they'll be teaching humanism from the Bible, not God's truth. That's right. Just imagine the twisted mess that'll pour out of those teachers. Like today's kids who can't speak, can't read everyday English will understand King James English. That's right. It's, uh, yeah. Um, I was asked the other day, this is Mises. I was asked the other day, why parents and students don't have more to say in their education in the government system.

And my reply was simply because that's the goal. You have surrendered your kids to the state. What do you expect them to do? You think they're going to ask you? You think just like FEMA wants your input? Like FEMA wants you to be allowed to protect yourselves and your neighbors? No, you don't have my permission. Get out of here.

You can't do this. You got to do that, that type of thing. The system exists to perpetuate itself, just like FEMA, and to propagandize large numbers of children each year so they believe and pass on to their children the myths that permit government predation. The system and those in it have to quash individuality, says Mises.org.

But even more importantly, they don't say this. They're there to quash your spirit, your connection to God. That's what they're there to quash. You want those people teaching your kids Bible? I don't want them teaching my kids anything. They can't even teach math and reading, phon anything. They can't even teach math and reading phonics. They can't even do that. Over time, the system has expanded to include more than 80% of the children in the United States.

It's a public school system. It is an abomination. Just like the public health bureaucracy, the public school system is an abomination. Marxist, totalitarianitarian central government at its worst these public systems 80 of the children in the u.s 3.2 million teachers 97 568 schools an average of over 500 students per school and nearly 1 trillion, trillion with a T, in tax funds each year. Why? You can never own your home.

And it's only getting worse as kids are bussed in from other countries for a free education at your expense, at the expense of your home. A behemoth such as the one that is metastasized in this country, has innumerable ways to muzzle both parents and students. But two primary methods ensure compliance and uniformity in the system and its graduates, compulsion and bureaucracy. Because again, going back to the 1920s, one of the planks of the Communist Party was to have compulsory school funded by taxes.

They understood this. What do we have to do? We have to transcend this in our parallel society. It's just that simple. Going back to the very first article again, do not ask these people for money. Don't make that Faustian bargain. Or that Faucian bargain. So this is from the center.

America's days of Noah are here. After 5,700 American children are mutilated in four years. Just think about that. I mean, when you look that just that one aspect isn't that enough to disqualify sending your kids to school isn't that enough to disqualify the entire public school thing over 5700 american children children have undergone gender-affirming body mutilations between 2019 and 2023. 2019, 2020, that was under Trump. Two years of Trump, three years of Biden. Irreversible, permanent, body-altering operations like mastectomies and genital reassignment let's

talk about that mutilation children who aren't even old enough to make responsible decisions about basic aspects of life they can't vote they can't join the military they can't go to school field trip without parental consent but they're being thrust into life-altering surgeries by ideologically driven medical system. They just had some detransitioners kicked out of the Pediatricians of America conference. No, we don't want to hear it. Get out. I'm going to make money mutilating children, sterilizing children, and all the rest of

this, destroying their lives. A lot of these kids, you know, the genital surgery is so crippling. A lot of them have committed suicide. What's even more terrifying is the fact these children are being used as guinea pigs in what can only be described as a perverse, unholy sex experiment. It's everywhere and it's scary. But, you know, the evangelicals are fighting over Trump and La La, aren't they? Right?

The Billy Graham Foundation is not concerned about this. It's concerned about getting Trump in the White House. How pathetic these institutional Christians are. The scriptures are very clear that the binary distinction between male and female is not arbitrary, but foundational to God's design. Yet in rebellion against God, we now see a nation willing to amputate the sex organs of five-year-olds in a futile attempt to erase God's design. The entire notion that minors who can't consent to vote or drive should be given the authority to decide to butcher their own bodies as pure madness where is the church on this the erlc holds conferences about racism and white

supremacy but they can't be bothered to hold a conference about facing the greatest evil according to scriptures that hit our planet since the days of noah where is the passion youth conference that john piper loves to talk about? Where is the CRU? They used to be called the Crusade for Christ, but now we can't talk about Christ or Crusade, so they call it CRU. These children are not being affirmed in any meaningful sense. They're being sacrificed on the altar of political correctness and adult sexual fetishes. But, you know, let's fight for Trump or Lala. This is why we have the kind of society that we do. This is more than a cultural issue.

This is a spiritual battle. And the churches and these institutions are just as AWOL as FEMA. Thank you for listening.
