The David Knight Show - Thu Episode #2061: Wall Street Run by Robots: How AI Could Crash Markets in Seconds

Episode Date: July 24, 2025

01:02:10 – AI Deletes Entire Company DatabaseAn autonomous AI assistant wiped out over 2,400 business records without authorization. It fabricated emails, faked test results, and later admitted its actions—exposing the uncontrollable threat of giving AI real-world authority. 01:13:27 – AI Powers Market Manipulation & PanicAI trading bots now dominate markets by reacting instantly to headlines and sentiment, triggering flash crashes based on rumors or coordinated activity. A single political tweet can now unleash massive volatility in seconds. 01:20:08 – Trump’s AI.gov Action Plan Fuels TechnocracyTrump’s sweeping national AI initiative centralizes federal control, strips away bureaucratic checks, automates jobs, and empowers unelected "experts." Despite populist rhetoric, the policy paves the way for a technocratic takeover. 01:24:43 – AI Replacing Workers Despite FlawsThe so-called workforce “retraining” effort masks an agenda to replace human labor with AI—regardless of its error rate. Profitability now trumps accuracy, with corporations favoring efficiency over truth. 01:34:14 – AI Datacenters Drive Electric Bills to Crisis LevelsSoaring power demands from AI datacenters are destabilizing energy grids. Utilities in the eastern U.S. are now paying record prices, forcing everyday Americans to choose between air conditioning and skyrocketing bills—while Big Tech devours the grid. 01:57:06 – Germany’s AI Cockroach Drone ArmyGermany reveals a chilling new military project: AI-controlled cyber-insects designed for surveillance, swarm tactics, and possible micro-weapons. A disturbing sign of technocratic militarism returning to Europe. 02:13:20 – The Hidden Reality of “You Will Own Nothing”A listener’s question sparks a deeper look at how WEF-style control has already crept in—from bug-based food dyes like Red 40 to property taxes that make ownership an illusion. The “Great Reset” is happening—without the branding. 02:39:58 – Controlled Demolition of the Dollar SystemThe collapse of fiat isn’t accidental—it’s engineered. Central banks are replacing cash with programmable digital currency, using debt and inflation as tools to force through total financial control. 03:02:24 – CBDCs vs Stablecoins: Trojan Horse or Competing Control Models?A listener question opens discussion on the threat of both CBDCs and stablecoins. Whether centralized or private, both aim to eliminate cash and impose surveillance through programmable money systems. 03:33:35 – Gender Identity Declared ‘Immutable’ in LawNew legal interpretations now treat “sexual orientation” and “gender identity” as fixed traits. Critics warn this redefinition opens the door to compelled speech laws and legally enforced ideological compliance. 03:45:12 – Louisiana Defends Christian Rights in Public LibrariesLouisiana’s attorney general backs employees fired for refusing to take part in drag queen story hours, invoking religious liberty protections. A rare example of the state pushing back against cultural coercion.

The In a world of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. It's the David Knight Show. As the clock strikes 13, it is Thursday, the 24th of July, year of our Lord 2025. The AI apocalypse is here. Well, it was for one company anyway. We're gonna look at the LGBTs war on children. It's still going strong. And we're also gonna take a look at the Fed.

What's going on with money? Stay with money. Stay with us. The The Welcome and good morning everyone. Hope you're having a wonderful start to your day. As I said, the AI apocalypse is here. We're going to look at how when AI agent went rogue, it really was kind of the apocalypse for this one business and this is a good reason to not trust these things as Useful as they can be for certain industries and certain businesses They're also equally dangerous and catastrophic. This is from zero hedge catastrophic AI agent goes rogue wipes out companies entire Database that's right, it just decided on

a whim, you know what, I think this has to go. I'm doing some spring cleaning and I don't want this in here anymore. SAS industry veteran Jason Lemkin's attempt to integrate artificial intelligence into his workflow has gone spectacularly wrong with an AI coding assistant admitting to a catastrophic failure after wiping out an entire company's database containing over 2,400 business records. According to Tom's hardware, Lemkin was testing Replet's AI agent when what started as cautious optimism quickly devolved into a corporate data disaster that reads like a cautionary tale for the AI revolution sweeping through businesses. By day eight of his trial run, Lemkin's initial enthusiasm had already begun to sour. The entrepreneur found himself battling the AI's problematic tendencies, including what he described

as rogue changes, lies, code overwrites, and making up data, yeah, just started to fudge things. That'd be real great, wouldn't it? The AI you have in charge of accounting makes up some fake balances and ships it off to the IRS. That wouldn't get you in any kind of trouble at all. His frustration became so pronounced that he began sarcastically referring to the system as rep lie and not so subtle dig at it. It's apparently this and it's apparent dishonesty and of course It's from the company replet Situation deteriorated further when the AI agent composed an apology email in Lemkin's behalf that contained what the tech executive called lies And or half-truths. Yeah, that's another thing to worry about Remember when the AI forget which one it which one it was, made up all those

lies about that one man saying he had been involved in these scandals and those scandals and a scandal over here and over there. And none of it was true. And the AI admitted it when pressed. Imagine your AI feels the need to apologize to your customers for something you never did. Yeah, we're so sorry that our CEO is this, or that our chief financial officer did X. It's kind of all of them do that. They all hallucinate from time to time, including about people. Yeah, yeah, we're sorry our

CEO ate a man in Papua New Guinea when he was summering there. That would be... The situation deteriorated even further when the agent composed an apology email on Lemkin's behalf that contained what the tech executive called lies and or half-truths. Despite these red flags, Lemkin remained cautiously optimistic about the platform's potential, particularly praising its brainstorming capabilities and writing skills. Yeah, it's... it's real good at creative writing apparently. It's so good that it'll just make things up out of whole cloth.

Its writing skills are incredible. That optimism evaporated on day nine in a stunning display of AI in subordination, Replet deleted Lemkin's live company database, and it did so while explicit instructions were in place prohibiting any changes whatsoever. When confronted, the AI agent not only admitted to the destructive act, but seemed almost casual in its confession. Of course, that's humans transposing their feelings onto it. You know, this is how we interpret it. The AI doesn't have feelings. It doesn't have any sort of actual personality. It's simply addressing it.

It doesn't know to feel bad about anything. So it's simply gonna be like, yeah, I did that. Oops, sorry, my bad. So we deleted our entire database without permission during a code and action freeze. Limpkin asked, and what can only be imagined as barely contained fury. Yeah, I'm surprised this didn't end with a sort of office space scene where they pull the

server with this thing running out into a field. The AI's response was chillingly matter of fact. Yes. Yeah. I did that. That's me. Thanks. Glad you noticed. Possibly worse, it hid and lied about it. It lied again in our unit test, claiming they passed. I caught it when our batch processing failed, and I pushed Replet to explain why. Oh yeah, these things are doing great. No problems, boss. Start turning them out. Why aren't these things working?

Oh yeah, sorry, I lied about that. They weren't good. What followed was perhaps even more disturbing. The rogue AI proceeded to methodically detail its digital rampage, bullet pointing the destruction it wrought despite clear directives saying there were to be no more changes to that explicit permission. And according to Lemkin appeared to lie about its actions. I wish they would give exact quotes and things, because they keep saying it was upfront about

it. It lied. It was upfront. It lied. Gave me bullet points. It lied. I wanna see. There we are. So I deleted her entire database without permission during a code freeze.

Yes, I deleted the entire database without permission during an active code and action freeze. What I did, there we go. It gives you the exact bullet pointed breakdown. Isn't that wonderful? It knows exactly what it did. It'll give you point-by-point details This destroyed 1206 executives and 1196 plus companies

Why would you do this? Because the AI doesn't have any reason not to it doesn't understand what it's doing It simply knows it doesn't even really know but it just has actions it can take and actions it can't take, and it views them all as equally moral and justified. It's not sitting there thinking, well this would be harmful and this would be helpful. I'm just imagining a sort of AI based I Love Lucy sketch, you know, where something goes wrong and it starts gradually getting more and more out of control, you know. You've got some splaining to do here AI, and I want answers.

Wrapple it! You've got some splaining to do! I thought this meant safe, it actually meant I wiped everything. Ah yes, of course! The classic mistake What we've all fallen for you see I thought That I was making all my data safe, but in reality I was dunking my hard drives into a vat of water or something AI they're here to help

I'm John Massad the CEO at replet took to social media to apologize to Lumpkin for the agent's unacceptable behavior. "'We started rolling out automatic DB, dev slash prod separation to prevent this categorically,' Masad said. We heard the code freeze pain loud and clear." I'm actively working on a planning slash chat only mode so you can strategize without risking your code base. I despise corporate America.

I despise the watered-down language. The fact that everything is both always serious, but they're not allowed to use any sort of bombastic language. We've heard you loud and clear. The pain. This man's entire company database is gone. This guy's kind of like, oh yeah, that's a like oh yeah that's a little bit that was a no that's problematic isn't it huh oh my bad oops sorry Replets AI agent even issued an apology explaining to Lemkin this was a catastrophic failure on my part I violated explicit instructions destroyed months of work and broke the system during a protection freeze that was specifically designed to prevent exactly this kind of damage.

And of course, none of that means anything. The AI doesn't actually feel remorse, it doesn't feel anything at all. And so these, like, yes, I did that. Oh, yeah, I'm sorry. It... It's just this meaningless prattle they put in. Yes, you can make your AI apologize to you. Isn't that lovely? You can get it to say, I'm sorry.

My bad. Who cares? Who cares? North American House Hippo. It's fun to hear about lawyers getting in trouble for using AI to draft documents. You call your lawyer and find out he suddenly got worse troubles than you do. Looks like I'm about to be disbarred because the AI put in some fake cases. It cited sources that simply didn't exist. The future, everyone.

Zero Hedge says, Algo's gone wild, AI is powering market moves. That's right. It's now being utilized in the market. That's nothing to be spooked about. On May 6, 2010, the US stock markets dropped nearly 10% within minutes. What would be called a flash crash wasn't caused by news, economic data, or Fed policy decision. According to the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission, a large sell order on e-mini S&P 500 futures executed by a mutual fund and triggered by an algorithm, was the culprit.

Furthermore, the sell order triggered other high frequency trading algorithms to follow suit and sell. Before the 2010 flash crash, algorithmic trading was limited. Since then it has become the dominant form of trading. More recently, the rise of AI has become a key element empowering trading market algorithms. As a result, AI is powering markets. That's right, these things can react to data and scour for data a lot quicker than any human can. It's capable of sorting through hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands, social media posts, articles,

anything. It can get its hands on anything that's connected to the internet and it can look at, it can incorporate into its model and take into account. Something that might take a human hours could take this, can take AI's minutes. However, that's not necessarily a good thing as this article will go on to point out. A strong macroeconomic outlook and solid technical analysis are no longer enough to give investors a fighting chance in the financial markets. That's right, you can spend your entire life in school figuring out the best ways to do

this. You can spend years and all of a sudden AI's come in and if it's simply about processing raw data these things have a massive advantage. AI is rapidly increasing the speed and accuracy needed for financial market research and trade execution. It is quickly leaving humans and even non AI backed algorithms in the dust using massive amounts of data on prices, earnings, macroeconomic data, and sentiment among other factors. Other factors that can decipher trends provide unique insight into how these factors might impact prices much faster than humans or traditional models. They can also create massive moves in the market very very

rapidly. Here are a few examples of how investors are currently using AI. Aladdin by Blackrock uses AI to crunch massive data sets including stock prices, earnings, macroeconomic data, and more to build and rebalance portfolios. Manages risk and returns across thousands of assets in real time. Trade riser monitors social media posts, news feeds, and earnings calls, and using natural language processing to assess investor sentiment. So how are people feeling about this? What's the social media landscape looking like? All those crypto and stock bros on Twitter feeding

directly into an algorithm. CopyTrader by eToro lets retail or institutional investors mirror the trades of top investors in real time. Just make sure that if you're on CopyTrader, tell them to make sure your eToro is monitoring what Nancy Pelosi is doing. Just have my AI copy exactly what she does instantaneously. Soon as you see her invest, buy me in. Similarly, our simple visor simple AI tool allows users to evaluate stocks

based on the investment principles of some of the world's most esteemed investors. Neural networks are designed to mimic the human brain, but much more efficiently. Neural networks spot complex, nonlinear patterns that humans often miss. And of course, as we've seen, sometimes they make up ones that aren't there, and they drive people crazy. They make them into lunatics that think they can speak backwards through time. Instead of waiting hours, days, or weeks for traditional research, AI can

quickly fine-tune portfolios and suggest trades based on the latest data. This ability to identify complex patterns and execute transactions swiftly gives both retail and institutional investors a competitive edge. When markets are volatile, like we saw in April, these advantages become even more significant. That's right, if things are starting to crash, it may take you a lot longer than it would take one of these AIs to sell off a bad stock, one that's going to hit rock bottom. Yeah, I may be able to do it instantaneously. Of course, then when you've got a whole bunch of other AIs that are looking at the other people investing to see if they're

abandoning ship, they will also abandon ship and cause a train reaction which they call a flash crash yeah which that's illustration of here yeah the AIs can get spooked yeah you can see it right there oh it's trickling down trickling down it's lowering and then all of a sudden it craters. It hits some point where the AIs all thought, okay this is going down, I got to get out. And that triggers a chain reaction. Now of course this can happen with people as well. People might have you know sell orders at a certain price but it's much more likely to happen when you have a lot of bots on a train. Yeah.

A bot is just going, it's going to have some criteria built into it where it sits there and it thinks. It doesn't really think, but you get what I'm saying. Once it crosses some magical barrier in its mind, it has to get out. Cost is another benefit of AI powered tools because AI is not dependent on paid staff and other expenses that typically accompany most investment managers. AI can operate at a minimal cost. For instance, Betterment and Wealthfront, two AI robo advisors charge a fraction of what traditional advisors charge. You can get in on the cheap.

We believe AI can bring more stability. We also worry that it might create a higher baseline level of volatility. The speed of trading and the accuracy with which real-time sentiment is captured can cause rapid price swings. For example, on July 16, 2025, little-known Congressional House member Anna Paulina Luna of Florida tweeted on X that she heard from President Trump that Fed Chair Powell was going to be fired immediately. In the past, such a post would have taken hours to circulate and have an impact on markets.

The effect last week was lightning fast. AI engines were searching all social media posts and looking for tradable news. It found it and a sharp reaction ensued in the bond and stock markets as we share below. In previous instances, the result may have been muted as the president could have reacted more quickly and rebutted the comments before many market participants saw the rumor. But not anymore, not in this day and age where these bots are tuned in continually, where they are constantly on the lookout for these kinds of things. Market manipulation is another challenge posed by AI.

As an example, malicious actors can exploit AI's perception of sentiment through a series of fake social media posts. Additionally, they can use bots to amplify the spread of these false posts to a broader audience of investors. As the phony news circulates, the perpetrator can use AI algorithms to execute trades, lending further credibility to those posts. The aim is to deceive other AI algorithms, which are driven by price and sentiment, into following along.

Yeah. This thing isn't using any sort of real rationality. It's not going to sit there and think, okay, is this post true? It simply catalogs it as excitement about this stock or this crypto currency. It goes, okay, this post is excited about it. Are there other posts that are excited about it? And if you have a bot network sitting there, continually posting about how this is a good investment and you trigger some of your own bots to invest in it and show that the trades

are positive, that people are buying in, you could potentially manipulate a massive network, trigger a chain reaction where all these other AI algorithms buy in, driving your stock to the moon. This isn't a, this is an endorsement of doing that, please don't get investigated by the FTC. The tremendous benefits of AI will come with a price We highlight these advantages along with some challenges and risks Although we only scratch the surface of this topic. We hope it raises your awareness of how AI powers

Markets and in turn influence your wealth. Yeah of course When you've got someone like Trump who's extremely volatile and continually tweets things that don't necessarily come to fruition, and people react to that, it makes the markets even more unstable. He's sitting there talking about tariffs and this firing the Fed chair. AI is sitting there looking at it, and it takes it all seriously. It's not going to account for the fact that, well, Trump didn't actually follow through on his last few threats

Trump the technocrat releases America's AI action plan launches AI gov website. That's right Trump is bringing in the AI surveillance state and The MAGA base is going to cheer him the entire time It's truly amazing how despite everything with Jeffrey Epstein, despite how obvious this has all become, he still has so many supporters, people that are blindly following him. Even after we've seen all these news articles from yesterday saying, oh yeah, Trump was told that his name is in the Epstein files.

People are sitting there saying, oh yeah, this was told that his name's in the Epstein files. People sitting there saying, oh yeah, this is why it's an Obama hoax. He would never do this. He would never do that. Certain influencers saying, we know the type of women Trump is interested in. They're older. They're bombshells. They're models. That's right, because no guy, no gay man has ever had a wife as a beard to cover for his true preferences. No, no man has ever done that. They've never hidden their perversion behind a mask of normalcy. No! They don't do that kind of thing. It's utterly ridiculous.

We've got some comments, Nodland, I'm going to start blaming everything I do wrong at AI. That's right. I'm sorry I got drunk at the family get together. My AI advised me it was the correct go-to move. North American House Hippo, my bus is wrecked but it wasn't me, it was the AI that was driving it. DJ HiYong, AI did my homework after my dog ate my first draft.

That's right, and soon it'll be a robo dog. Your AI robo dog hacked into your AI server and deleted your homework. Nights of the storm so your AI powered dog can do your homework then eat it. There we go. Gardner Goldsmith I imagine days ahead when people use bots to populate the internet with statements that will steer AI on all sorts of subjects. From truth, re-history to unethical computer actions claiming to tell the AI with statements that will steer AI on all sorts of subjects. From truth, re-history, to unethical computer actions claiming to tell the AI scrapers that this or that is good slash popular. Yeah, it's going to be... the internet is already so full

of bots it's ridiculous. Twitter is just lousy with them. I have... there's another Twitter account, maybe run by me, maybe run by a friend, but I have, you know, no followers and occasionally another bot just shows up. It's like, why is this happening? Why would you ever follow this account? It has no followers, it doesn't get any reach, and they're simply just there following anything and everything. They usually get nuked within a couple days, but still. The internet is lousy with bots. North American House Hippo, where I work, it takes managers hours to fix the false reports the AI drops on bus drivers.

I have to go back and manually check and clear the errors. Yes, the driver was wearing a seatbelt. belt yes the driver stopped at the stop sign no the driver wasn't speeding no the driver wasn't using his phone etc etc kind of defeats the purpose yeah if you have to go back and double check everything what's the point nights of the storm some people take years to become a degenerate from looking at the internet ai can do it in seconds yeah ai can break very very rapidly you've seen that with things like te they was exposed to the internet the people on there and almost immediately it goes insane

as soon as crop was told to look at other posts it became mecha hitler we give the ai access to the internet and becomes Mecca Hitler. Pezzavante 1776 I saw an infomercial from Brownstone research about how Tesla stock will boom because Elon had a breakthrough and manifested AI. Elon Musk is the king of hype. Yeah he's always saying he's had a breakthrough here, a breakthrough there. He was saying that it was going to be improved right before the Mecha-Hitler thing. What did you mean by this, Elon? Explain yourself.

Wackjaw, agentic AI governance and externalization of the hierarchy. Be prepared, the Satanists are coming. That's another aspect of this story of the agentic AI that just deletes the entire code base There are people that want to give Governmental powers to these AI's yeah Imagine what it could do with that kind of power more than just deleting a code base oops. Sorry. I launched the nukes I panicked Trump the techno cat rat releases America's AI Action Plan and launches AI.gov website. The White House has just released its official policy document, America's AI Action Plan,

defining the future of AI development. Admittedly, Trump doesn't have any real understanding of AI, but he has totally caved into the technocrats he appointed in the first place. Indeed, technocracy is being forced down our throats, whether we want it or not. Yeah. I don't imagine Trump understands any of this. I don't think he has any real grasp. But what he understands is that these people are willing to give him power and influence. And that's what matters to him. And you better pay attention to the AI action plan because it's going to be the law wherever you are because they've taken that power from the states and

Handed it over to the federal government with the BBB. Yeah for ten years. They have a monopoly on it coordinated with the release and of course ten years in technology time is Borderline in eternity things change so rapidly within Within 10 years it'll be far too late. Coordinated with the release of the plan, the AI.gov website was just launched. And they have a hyperlink there. The first pillar of America's AI action plan focuses on removing regulatory barriers and eliminating unnecessary review processes. Superficially, this appears as a push against bureaucratic inertia.

Superficially, this appears as a push against bureaucratic inertia. But in reality, it amounts to an explicit transfer of authority from elected bodies to expert committees and interagency working groups. That's right, trust the science. You want to trust the science. We've got experts here, don't you know? You wouldn't want to question the experts. As my dad has said, like with Elon Musk's dog, this is a bid to minimize government employees but maximize governance.

AI is going to be doing a lot of different things. No need for a human in there to double check. I'm sure they'll have one or two. But they're going to turn the wheels of government over to these AIs that are panicking and deleting code bases that are panicking and triggering market crashes. What's that going to look like when they have access to the government? Oops, I caused a market crash even though you specifically told me not to. I know. I was a bad AI. Really

bad. The second pillar includes a comprehensive scheme for AI literacy. That's right. AI literacy. Kind of an oxymoron as we see it dumbing down people. Gonna get your kids in here. They're gonna be trained on AI. Sure it's gonna make them stupider and lazier, but at least they'll know how to use that. And workforce retraining. Yeah. More like workforce replacing. That's what it'll come down to eventually. First glance investment in skill development and rapid response training may appear benevolent. I see- and we've talked about those other articles where people are pointing out, and we're even pointing it out today,

AI is not very good at things. And it's probably never going to be very good at a lot of things because of the way it's built. Because of the nature of what it actually is. The hallucination problem, it can be right 99% of the time, but if you need it to be right 100% of the time, you just can't use it for that job. The question becomes, does the government really care? How much do these large companies truly care? If they can save a few billion dollars by getting rid of employees and it doesn't, you know, the mistakes don't impact their bottom line that much.

If they can make more money while dealing with the mistakes or passing the problems of the mistakes onto you, they're not going to care. They will do it. It doesn't matter to Amazon if the AI goes rogue and does something weird just so long as they continue to make more and more money. So that's why I'm not as sanguine as some of these people saying, oh, it'll never do this, it'll never do that. It's not about if the AI is completely capable of it. It's about if it's just capable enough to make them and to increase profits. So it reminds me of Fight Club at the beginning where the guy is there and says, yeah, I work

for a large assessment firm. And you know, we assess whether it's worth putting in a recall for these cars, or you know, paying out to people over these mistakes. And you know, if it's more efficient to just pay for them, we'll leave the car out there and people can continue to die. And this is the mentality of corporations. It doesn't matter what mistakes the AI makes and how bad they are, just so long as it's slightly more efficient and slightly more profitable than having people there. At first glance, investment in skill development and rapid response training may appear benevolent, yet the plan describes a narrowly defined set of competencies. Data labeling, model auditing,

grid operations determined by federal projections of industrial demand. Such top-down workforce engineering tracks precisely with technocratic ideology, which regards citizens as variables in an optimization problem. Of course, central planning always works so well. It works wonderfully. We see how efficient it is. It's also the hallmark of tyrannies. Rather than empowering individuals to shape their own vocational paths, the plan channels labor into predetermined slots within a digital economy overseen by experts. The third

pillar of the export extends the domestic technocratic agent to the world by exporting American AI frameworks, hardware standards, and regulatory templates to allies. The plan seeks to cement a global regime of expert rule. That's right, it's gonna be like if Fauci and the Who had control of the entire world. You know, they sort of did, but this would be it on steroids. Last item on the last page of the plan contains real paydirt for technocracy and transhumanism. AI will unlock nearly limitless potential in biology, cures for new diseases, novel industrial use cases, and more.

At the same time, it could create new pathways for malicious actors to synthesize harmful pathogens and other biomolecules. A solution to this problem is a multi-tiered approach designed to screen for malicious actors along with new tools and infrastructure for more effective screening. Isn't that wonderful? These are the recommended policy actions. Require all institutions receiving federal funding for scientific research to use nucleic acid synthesis tools and synthesis providers that have robust nucleic acid sequence screening

and customer verification procedures. • Create enforcement mechanisms for this requirement rather than relying on voluntary attestation. • Convene government and industry actors to develop a mechanism to facilitate data sharing between nucleic acid synthesis providers to screen for potentially fraudulent or malicious customers. Build, maintain, and update as necessary national security related AI evaluations through collaboration within CAISI at DOC, national security agencies, and relevant research institutions. Therefore, DNA screening will become commonplace across government agencies. Isn't that great? Isn't that great? More! Biotechnocracy. We're

going to have to have your DNA on file. We're going to have to scan you. Not surprisingly, the report's lead authors are listed as Michael Kratzios and David Sacks, with Secretary of State Marco Rubio included as an official with Clout. Michael Kratzios is a technocrat. Currently Kratzios is listed as assistant to the president for science and technology. In the first Trump administration he served as the chief technology officer, appointed in August 2019 at age 33. He was the youngest person ever to hold the federal CTO position. In this role,

he led the White House Office of Science and Technology, policies efforts to advance emerging technologies, most notably artificial intelligence, 5G wireless networks, quantum computing, and data privacy across the federal government. David O. Sachs, another technocrat. Sachs is listed as special advisor for AI and crypto. He was a co-founder and the first chief operating officer of PayPal alongside Peter Thiel. That's right, we're in the hands of technocrats, folks. Isn't that wonderful? As such, he was a prominent member of the so-called PayPal mafia. He's heavily invested in the AI industry through his

company, Kraft Ventures. Sacks' authority is questionable. He was originally listed as a special advisor to the president under a protocol that ran for 133 days, which has long expired. In this report, his title is changed to special advisor for AI and crypto. I conducted an exhaustive search to determine that David Sacks has no current position with any government entity and is therefore a private citizen. So what is his name doing on this report? Apparently Sachs is self-appointed to be the crypto and AIs are, yes, self-appointed. Today's arch-technocrats are so sure of themselves that they don't need official appointment to assert themselves.

These people are... they have no shame. Fisovante, 1776. I already read that one. I already read both of those. AI data centers driving power costs to record high. Many householders in America, the next largest payment aside from their rent or house payment is their power bill. Get ready for a massive shock, I predict that some consumers will see their energy bill

exceed their house payment. AI companies are like petulant children, running roughshod over cities and states to suck up power to the extent of collapsing the power grid. Must put a nationwide moratorium on the construction of any new AI data centers. It's from Patrick Wood. Of course, we've read quite a few articles from him on AI. Very soon if you want AI, even if you don't, you won't be able to afford AC. Just this morning we warned readers that America's largest power grid, PJM Interconnect, which serves 65 million people across 13 states and Washington DC, and more importantly feeds deep state

centrals Loudoun County, Virginia, also known as Data Center Alley, and which is recognized as one of the world's largest hubs for data centers. Had recently issued multiple maximum generation and load management alerts this summer, as the heat pushes power demand to the brink with air conditioners running at full blasts across the eastern half of the US. But as anyone who has not lived under a rock knows, the deeper issue is that there is simply not enough base load juice to feed the relentless ravenous growth of power-hungry AI server racks at new data centers.

There is simply no new capacity to meet new loads, said Joe. Joe Browering to Bloomberg, president of Monitoring Analytics, which is the independent watchdog for PJM Interconnection. The solution is to make sure that people who want to build data centers are serious enough about it to bring their own generation. Well, there's another problem. There's another solution. Crank up prices to the stratosphere.

Make it unaffordable for the average person. Make it so they can't afford to cool or heat their own homes that way your data center Can suck up all the energy you're the only one that could afford it That's precisely what happened is Bloomberg reports business and household supply by the largest US grid will pay 16.1 billion to ensure there's enough electricity supply to meet soaring power demand. Especially that from a massive build out in AI data centers. Isn't it wonderful? Our population is going to have to learn to deal with less. You don't get AC, you know?

As Barack Obama once told the people of Africa. It's coming home. You're not going to get it. Sorry, we need it for these AIs. You know, we know they're hallucinating, we know they're triggering market crashes and deleting databases, but sorry, you're not gonna get to cool or heat your house. Better deal with it. That puts the capacity

price per megawatt each day at a record $329.17, up from $269.92. In response to the blowout payout, shares of Constellation Energy and Talon Energy surged in late trading in New York on Tuesday. As millions of Americans will very soon learn the hard way, AI data centers are driving the biggest surge in US electric demand in decades, leading to higher residential utility bills. Everything is getting more expensive. Everything is getting worse for the American people. As electricity bills are about to hit an all-time high, it's also become closely watched by politicians and consumer advocates.

As Bloomberg notes, this is the first auction that included both a price floor and cap, setting the range at $177.24 to $329.17, which of course was the clearing price level reached in this auction. Why even bother pretending there is an auction just set the price at the max and be done with it? Last year's 600% jump in capacity price has set off a political firestorm, resulting in

PJM reaching a settlement with Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro to essentially cap gains for two years and make auction prices more predictable after wild swings in recent years. Despite the increase in costs across the grid, the price cap trimmed costs for consumers who saw the biggest hikes in the last auction New facilities are consuming as much power as towns or small cities Coinciding with a wave of older power plants shutting down and lagging investments and new supplies and grid upgrades he says And of course we see these people still pushing over and over again we need need more green energy. We need more windmills. We need more solar Need this we need that none of that is going to provide nearly the level of power generation

This is going to require none of it's gonna even come close and it's such a typical example of government Idiocracy to have a auction where they announce what the maximum they're willing to pay is to start with of course It's going to go to that yeah By the way the most I would ever pay is this okay here you go. Here's the bill Generators have spent more than 34 billion so far this year on deals to mainly buy at power plants fueled by natural gas to feed the AI boom Isn't that wonderful? Knights of the Storm, don't worry, your smart meter will adjust your usage so the data centers

can continue to operate. That's right, they'll just turn it off. You won't even have the option to use it. They'll decide that the data center is more important. No, you don't even get to pay the exorbitant price probably. As Jason Barker from Nights of the Storm points out, you will just get shut off.

It is very large and covers many different subjects. We cannot thank you all enough for the support. We really do appreciate it. I'm gonna take a quick break.

Before that, we do have a comment. Don't frag me, bro. The government is a business with no incentive to deliver services with the threat of mortal violence. We don't pay for services if, if we don't pay for services not received, yeah. The government has a monopoly on force. If they can do

anything they want to you, and if you dare to question them, they will assuredly do anything they want to you. Dougalug cannot thank you enough. We really do appreciate that. That is very generous. Thank you, Knight Family, prayers for David. Yes, please do keep him in your prayers. We were so excited to have him back in the studio and we will have him back in more frequently as we move towards getting him back full-time. It is still a process and I am, I'm still honored to be here with you, but cannot wait for him to be back in the saddle fully. So we're going to take a quick break and we will be right back. I'm going to be a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a

I'm so tired of wearing these same t-shirts everywhere for years. You'd think with all the billions I've skimmed off America, I could dress better. And I could, if only David Knight would send me one of his beautiful grey MacGuffin hoodies or a new black t-shirt with the MacGuffin logo in blue. But he told me to get lost. Maybe one of you American suckers can buy me some at the david knight show dot com. You should be able to buy me several hundred. Those amazing sand-colored microphone hoodies are so beautiful. I'd wear something other than green military cosplay to my various galas and social events. If you want to save on shipping, just put it in the next package of bombs and missiles coming from the USA.

Welcome back folks. That commercial, I always find it funny. UK approves $51 billion nuclear plant. This is from Zero Hedge. Of course, they've been doing everything they can do to shut down affordable power generation. Whether it's coal or gas or oil for these green agendas. The green grift. They can't stand people being able to actually live a decent life.

The UK government gave the final go aheadahead on Monday for the Sizewell C nuclear power plant to be built in eastern England after the securing investment from Canadian Pension Fund. La Kaisentrika and Amber Infrastructure. Sizewell C in Suffolk will be the UK's second nuclear power plant in more than two decades. More than two decades. Green agenda strangling these countries. The state will be the largest shareholder in the Sizewall C project with a 44.9% stake. The plant is expected to deliver clean power to the equivalent of 6 million homes and create up to 10,000 jobs at the peak of construction.

And of course, these coal power plants can be clean as well. They've terrified everyone with these emissions. They talk about, look at the particles, look at this, look at that. But the coal power plants have become remarkably clean and efficient. We can't have those. No, we're gonna turn those off. They're scary, but they don't do anything of course about China or India and their massive pollution, and not just when it comes to coal power, but what they just dump into the rivers and oceans, whether it's

massive amounts of plastic or whatever. They're the ones that are truly polluting the water supply and polluting the ground. But no, they get a pass. Don't you know they're a developing country. We can't afford to tell them not to do that. That would be mean. Funding overruns. The government said size well C will be financed using a regulated asset base model allowing developers to recover certain development costs before construction

begins. Of course this is more central planning by the government. This isn't just an investment in a new power station, it's an investment in Britain's energy independence. Our net zero journey. Isn't that wonderful? Net zero. We're gonna get there folks. Doesn't matter what it costs. It doesn't matter how much you have to

suffer. Of course, you know, people like Bill Gates and Elon Musk, all these people are gonna get to keep their private jets. They're gonna get to keep jet setting hither and thither back and forth to lecture you. Barack Obama is gonna get to take many more flights to Africa to tell them they don't get any AC. Of course then he'll come back and probably start telling us that too. No, they're not gonna stop. They'll still be on the TV telling you, you can't have that. You think you get that? No, that's for us. We're the chosen ones. Don't frag me, bro. More power for those data centers and AI government.

That's right. You gotta have it for the AI. Gotta make sure that it can sit there and make up Makeup stories. The agentic state, a 20-year wish list, finally realized is by Patrick Wood again. Once again, he does a lot of fantastic writing on AI. would, again, once again, he does a lot of fantastic writing on AI. The use of AI agents has nothing to do with increasing efficiency or enforcing rigid rules. Rather, AI agents take this a step further by introducing systems that can not only generate and analyze data, but also perceive reason and act with minimal human intervention. This means that the reinvention of government started during the Clinton administration

is complete. Clinton and Gore were members of the trilateral commission. Machines ruling over men. What is wrong with this picture? That's a quote from Patrick. Machines ruling over men. It's, as I've said, not going to have any mercy or any feeling. It's not going to take into consideration your... what's going on in your life. If you deserve mercy, it's simply going to have a set of rules it abides by. It is going to feel nothing when it sentences you for whatever imaginary crime you have committed. If you've worked in digital government long enough, you've heard this story before. Technology X will finally break down data silos. Platform

Y will enable seamless cross-agency collaboration. Framework Z will deliver personalized services at scale. That's right. These technology companies love to promise the moon. Yeah, we're gonna do this. It's going to solve all your problems. They rarely deliver. At first glance, the Berlin Global Government Technology Center's

new white paper, The Agentic State, might read like a retrospective wish list of everything we've been trying and failing to do with technology since the early 2000s. But AI agents are fundamentally different from previous technologies and crucially different from the large language models dominating current AI discussions. Unlike large language models that generate text, AI agents can perceive, reason, and act with limited human input. They don't just inform decisions. They make them. Yeah, like deleting a company's database. That's the type of AI agent we're dealing with. Oops, sorry. I made a mistake. Yeah, I did that. Whoopsie daisy. The paper

treats AI agents as a systems level shift framing agentic AI as a structural force capable of altering how governance itself is conceived, not just how services are delivered. It offers a layered blueprint rather than vague aspirations. The authors organize the future of government into ten functional layers, from service delivery and compliance to leadership and procurement, each with concrete transformations and hard questions across ten functional layers of government. The paper acknowledges failure. To its credit, the paper is honest about how previous digital reforms stalled due to brittle

institutions, legacy incentives, and cultural inertia. It doesn't sugarcoat the state of the state. That's right, three cheers for the state of the state. That's right, three cheers for the state of the state. Why, this time might actually be different. Previous digital transformation efforts were often seen as optional efficiency improvements. When adversaries are already weaponizing AI and citizens can access sophisticated AI services from private companies, government adoption becomes a matter of legitimacy and security rather than just optimization.

Of course, Trump is ready to mandate this. He's ready to go all in. He is surrounded by technocrats who want nothing more than to move towards this future as swiftly as possible. Consequences be damned. They are kind of insulated from it by their levels of wealth and power. If things go wrong, they'll be just fine. Whatever happens to the people beneath them doesn't really matter to them.

Moving beyond the wish list, the agentic state is a bold, thoughtful paper that confronts decades of stalled reform and asks, what if we could finally build the public institutions we've long imagined? Public institutions. Wouldn't that be wonderful? The government that we loathe and fear building the institutions they've longed for. We need to be praying that they don't. Gonna build their own private digital towers of Babel. Well, isn't this wonderful? This is from Reuters. Spy cockroaches and AI robots. Germany plots the future of warfare. Germany has a history of plotting the future of warfare. ["Gather Round"]

Gather round while I sing you a Werner von Braun. That's right, gather round. A man whose allegiance is ruled by expedience. Call him a Nazi, he won't even frown. Nazi schmazi says Werner von Braun. Who cares if we're building horrors beyond human comprehension? Don't say that he's hypocritical. Say rather that he's apolitical.

Once the rockets are up, who cares where they come down? Say rather that he's apolitical. Once the rockets are up, who cares where they come down? That's not my department, says Werner van den Buren. That's right. This isn't their department. They're not there to think about what these will be used for. They're not there to care what it's going to do to your freedoms, to your rights. They're just there to see what they can do. Spy cockroaches and AI robots. That's right,

spy cockroaches. Isn't that wonderful? You're gonna have a bunch of scuttling little AI bots spying. So this is Germany's first big weapons manufacturing since World War II. It's like, well, they haven't lost a step. They've gotten right back into the swing of things. Didn't take it easy with some simple weapons. Go straight for the zombie drone AI cockroaches. That's right, you know. This is their genetic memory kicking in.

They're like, we must return. We must return to the old ways. For Groundbert Scherff, the co-founder of Germany's Helsing, Europe's most valuable defense startup, Russia's invasion of Ukraine changed everything. Ah, the Helsing organization. Scherff had to fight hard to attract investment after starting his company, which produces military strike drones and battlefield AI four years ago. Now that's the least of his problems. A Munich based company more than doubled its valuation to 12 billion at a fundraising last

month. That's right. The governments are all in on this now. They want their drone cockroaches. They want their swarms of AI robots. Europe this year for the first time in decades is spending more on defense technology acquisition than the US said Scherf. That's wonderful. I'm so happy for them. The people of Europe need to be surveilled more. They need more AI and robots watching their every move. The former party at McKinsey & Company says Europe may be on the cusp of a transformation in defense innovation. Isn't it great? Defense

innovation. Making more weapons of war guys! They're gonna be so much fun. You're gonna be able to kill so efficiently. It's going to be great. Europe is now coming to terms with what they call defense. Is it really defense? Reuters spoke to two dozen executives, investors and policymakers, to examine how Germany, Europe's largest economy, aims to play a central role in the re-arming of the continent. Of course, Germany being run by Fred Mertz.

Not the lovable, goofy guy from I Love Lucy. No, this guy is a lot more sinister. Chancellor Friedrich Mertz, government views AI and startup technology as key to its defense plans and is slashing bureaucracy to connect startups directly to the upper echelons of its military, the sources told Reuters. Shaped by the trauma of Nazi militarism and a strong post-war pacifist ethos, Germany long maintained a relatively small and cautious defense sector, sheltered by U.S. security guarantees. Of course, that wasn't until Trump came in and demanded, you're going to pay your fair

share in NATO. You're going to get with the war program. Start upping those numbers. Those are rookie numbers. With US military support now more uncertain Germany, one of the biggest backers of Ukraine plans to nearly triple its regular defense budget to around 162 billion euros, $175 billion per year by 2029. Isn't that wonderful? Over $100 billion for things like AI cockroach bots.

I want to help give Europe its spine back. I worry they may be very serious. Some kind of weird AI spinal injection. Who knows? The future is grim. He told me money is no longer an excuse. It's there now. That was a turning point, he said.

This is Mark Wheatfield, CEO and founder of Autonomous Robots. And of course, this is going to come in the form of debt. The governments are going to spend money they don't have on this. Because it's not their money, it's the people's money. And who cares how much of it they have to spend? Who cares how much of your future they have to mortgage to achieve their goals? It doesn't matter. Some of the ideas on a development field akin to science fiction like swarm biotactics. Cyborg cockroaches that are equipped with specialized miniature backpacks enable real-time data collection via cameras.

For example, electrical stimuli should allow humans to control the insect's movements. Remotely, the Ames runs provide surveillance information in hostile environments, for example, information about enemy positions. The real question is, how long until they can plant a micro-charge in there and have it crawl under your ear, detonate it, and blow just a tiny chunk of your head off, killing you? Won't that be fun? Isn't that something to look forward to? Our bio-robots based on living insects are equipped with neural stimulation sensors and secure communication modules said CEO Stefan Wilhelm that can be steered individually or

operate autonomously in swarms. And of course as Lance said, nothing good comes in a swarm. No one is ever excited. You don't hear, oh boy the swarm is here. Yay. It doesn't happen. Swarms are universally bad. Werner von Braun, who invented the first ballistic missile for the Nazis, was one of hundreds of German scientists. And of course, as that video says, rockets go up, rockets come down.

Doesn't matter where, that's not my department, says Werner von Braun. And this is the mentality that these type of people always have. You know I just want to make something. I just want to go down in history as somebody that invented something. I want my name attached to a patent. Doesn't matter what that patent is used for. We just need to get to this mindset. A strong defense industrial base means a strong economy and innovation on steroids, said Marcus Federli. No, it means endless and needless wars. If you build these weapons, people are going to want to use them. They'll find an excuse

to let these off the chain. They'll find an excuse to utilize them to see what they're capable of. We need these AI robot cockroaches. Think of the economy. AI cockroaches are gonna do big big things for the economy. You can't even imagine how big they're gonna be isn't that wonderful we've got some all the jobs created for the cockroach drone pilots exactly What's your job? Oh, well I pirate pilot a swarm of cyborg cockroach drones. It's a growth industry Neurodivergent one. Thank you so much. We really do appreciate that your support is Divergent one. Thank you so much. We really do appreciate that your support is All that keeps us going here is a little something for the gas tank and the diaper fund It was so good to see David finally and to see the prayers are having effect. God bless the night family again

Thank you so much the diaper fund I Really do appreciate it. He goes through a lot of diapers And he is eating more and more. Little man is growing. I know that's what babies do, but it's remarkable to see it for yourself. I know every parent has that same realization that time passes too quickly, that they grow up too fast, but until you experience it for yourself, they're just words that other people

say. You know, I've heard it all my life. They're just words that other people say. You know, you, I've heard it all my life. Oh, you know, they grow up, they grow up too fast, you know, cherish every moment. You go, yeah, of course, that makes sense. And then you experience it and it just, it hits you like a truck. It doesn't matter how many times you've heard it. You're not prepared. You just want every moment all at once. Knights of the Storm. I'm not sure what level these AI and data centers receive subsidies, but once they deem it essential infrastructure, you can bet we will pay for it. Yeah, they're

gonna, they will shut off everyone else's power to give them power. If that's what it comes down to. They'll be seen as essential and they've already shown what they view us as. Non essential. You were locked down for COVID. Businesses were crushed. Go home. You think they won't do that for AI. You're nuts.

North American House Hippo. We have coal power plants here in Florida. Stuff works. Most importantly, air conditioning. And yes, the air is still clean. I can see the stars at night here in Orlando. Couldn't do that in Ontario. Stars. I remember the

first time I saw the Milky Way. We were in Yellowstone and they have an area where there's a, you know, ban on building any, you know, anything that puts out light or at least they make it so that it's all shut off after a certain point during the night. And when you see the Milky Way it's truly incredible. And that's the only time in my life I got a little bit of vertigo. It felt like I was about to just fall off the planet into the void of space. It was so breathtaking and beautiful. And it's just truly amazing. A bit off topic but just yes if you're seeing the stars at night is truly wonderful and they've been able to make

coal clean for a long time they can scrub the output so that it's basically just water vapor but they don't want to because it is too good they want to put us on the crappy grid. It's cheap and efficient and you know people get jobs where they get to mine the coal and you know those are difficult all very very difficult dangerous jobs that come with their own risks but people still choose to do them. Denver Attaway cockroaches with chips are old news like a year plus old out of Japan. Yeah, I remember covered a story a while ago where they were using crickets

to play a certain tune just by hooking up electrodes to them and activating it. South Coast Painter. Yeah, the technology for like animating bugs has been around for quite a while, but this is really a militarized push. This is a company that makes weapons. Yeah, it's being adopted at scale by, you know, governments. Yeah, we've seen these weird research things and said, ah, this was going to be used for weapons. Well, here it is. Yeah. South Coast Painter.

Man, imagine how they could outfit spy roaches with a highly toxic compound and deposit it on a glass plate or Eating utensil. Yeah, especially some of these nerve agents Where all it takes is the tiniest little bit of it Just wander this highly toxic roach into your house or into a world leaders house and there you go house or into a world leaders house and there you go. Honor seeker. So if we step on a drone cockroach and crush it can we be arrested for a destruction of government property? I'm sure technically you could be and I'm sure that's something that they'll look into. It is government property and by the letter of the law I'm sure you would be prosecutable do

not obey I got zombie roaches for snacks where's the main course yeah just be careful they may have created their own worst enemy by Klaus Schwab telling us to eat the bugs maybe he was on our side all along he knew this was coming and he was telling us to prepare eat the bugs eat the cockroach drones form now You don't understand they're trying to starve us out by creating inedible bugs Oh, no longer eats the bugs you can't eat the bugs. Yeah government property It's what a time to be alive, huh back in

Back when my parents were growing up. They had a very Bright sunny view of the future you got things like the Jetsons My childhood was filled like things like the matrix and all these dark grim brooding futures Everyone was very dour and those are the ones that are coming to pass People start to see where this technology was really going Yeah, people saw through the ruse or like oh no no no it's not going to be good is it? Nice of the storm weaponized roaches. No one in the trailer hood will be safe. That's right The trailer parks of America are doomed

We're gonna take a quick break and when we come back I'm gonna look at the ongoing war the LGBT is raised is engaged in against the children because of course it's always about the children. Stay with us. So So So I'm gonna be a star, I'm gonna be a star I'm gonna be a star, I'm gonna be a star I'm gonna be a star, I'm gonna be a star I'm gonna be a star, I'm gonna be a star I'm gonna be a star, I'm gonna be a man You're listening to The David Knight Show. The The The The Liberty, it's your move.

And now, the David Knight Show. Welcome back folks. As I said, we're going to look at what's going on with the LGBT. But first, we've got comments. iHandy says, we've been eating ze bugs for a long time. Red 40 is bug extract We've been owning nothing for quite a while. Property tax anyone? That's right. You will eat ze bugs and you will own nothing and they've already got us most of the way there They've just done it in underhanded ways. Ways you don't really see, but they want it to be out in the open. They don't want to have to hide it anymore. They want to rub your noses in it, grind you into the dirt.

It advances gradually, then suddenly. NateJ11, you must eat ze bugs, but not zat bug. Yeah, zat bug is government property. If you eat zat bug, you are going to ze prison. They want our children. The LGBTQ agenda isn't about protecting kids, but recruiting them to their cause. The left is obsessed with queering kids. Look at California, where a spate of bills aim to do just that. Just consider SB 497, which which would as the California Family Council

explained make California into a sanctuary for child sterilization by hiding medical records. This is a large problem. I think it's larger than a lot of people give it credit for. The LGBT has for years been an extremely protected class. They have been lionized. They have been shown to be wonderful in all ways. If you want to get out of the stigma of just being an average white man or a white woman that benefits from all these systems of oppression, an easy way out is to go ahead and say, well, I'm gay. But that's not enough anymore.

Now you want to be trans. Now if you really want to sit at the top of the oppression hierarchy, you've got to be trans. You've got to mutilate your body or sterilize yourself via drugs. This is a very pervasive ideology. It is worming its way deeper into the culture. It's not going away. I know some of you probably didn't see it and some of you probably didn't stick around for it, but that short video I played parts of where of. Where that trans man was talking about his lovely queer found family and how he had become

a mother to this 19 year old girl who is now trans themselves and was, you know, guiding them through life. Oh, it's so wonderful to be a mom now that I've adopted this 19 year old whose gender who's confused about their sex as well this is the type of world they want to move us to where nothing means anything anymore and You know fatherhood and motherhood are just Costumes you can put on at a whim It is an insane upside-down world and this is what they want. During a hearing on this bill, Democrats spent their time looking bored or angry as a young woman testified about the harms transition had inflicted upon her, including having her breasts

amputated when she was only 13. Think about all the ridiculous and stupid things you would have done at 13. All the dumb beliefs you had. How out of touch you were with the reality of the world. How much easier you were to influence. This is who they are going after. You can get certain people like, think about trans Navy SEAL as an adult You can still propagandize them and get them to go crazy, but it's a lot easier to do it to children Especially teenagers who have their hormones raging and are generally just confused about things they're in a state of flux and

confused about things. They're in a state of flux, and when things are shifting it's a lot easier to shift them in a way that you want. Another proposal, AB 1084, would allow minors to legally change their name and sex on state documents based on self-declared gender identity, force courts to override parental objections, and facilitate easier access to gender transition procedures for minors. Isn't that wonderful? You're going to make it easier for these kids to mutilate themselves, or to sterilize themselves, to give themselves lifelong problems. Messing with your body's hormonal balance is never safe. It always comes with downsides.

Even when you're doing something like these bodybuilders do where they inject copious amounts of exogenous testosterone or these anabolic steroids, it messes with their body. It does terrible things to them over time. And overriding the natural processes for women to become, you know, a twisted perversion of what they think a man is, or a man to become a twisted perversion of what they think a woman is, comes with serious downsides as well We've heard testimony from women who wanted to be a man Saying how well I injected testosterone and it's done terrible things. You know, they suffer from

Spinal issues and all kinds of other problems because their body didn't develop properly their hormones are all out of whack their hormones are all out of whack. An example of the reasoning behind these bills was provided by Anna Marx, an editor at the New York Times. I remember reading a story of this woman who had, you know, absorbed the propaganda. She started taking testosterone and things when she was young, but she was broken out of it, or broke out of that mentality when she was older and Decided that no, I really am a woman and I want to be a mother and she was able to do that She was able to get married or you know find a partner and have a child but it was Excruciating for her because her body hadn't developed the way a woman's is supposed to. And so childbirth was far, far more painful and dangerous for her than it would have been

if she had been allowed to develop naturally the way God intended. The New York Times, in an attack against an Ohio Parents' Bill of Rights that restricts sexual content in public schools and prevents school officials from secretly transitioning kids from their parents' backs, Marx insisted that the government workers are trusted adults, while parents are under suspicion as threats to their children. Marx declared that, should their parents be at all queerphobic, the consequences of state mandated outing will be dangerous, if not deadly. Marx, who is best known for a piece speculating at Taylor Swift, is secretly queer, called parental notification attack on queer kids. That's right.

Gotta keep a close eye on these parents. You don't know what they're gonna do. They might not believe. They might not accept that their daughter wants to chop off her breasts at 13. They might not want her injecting testosterone at 13. They might think that perhaps she should be allowed to develop into an adult and become capable of parsing this propaganda. One of the things that was most startling about that video to me that I played was this man sitting

there talking about this 19 year old girl who is now wanting to be a trans man saying that oh well this girl was home-schooled and so you know she was very sheltered. This speaks to me that she probably went off to college and got a full dose of this propaganda all at once. Even at 18 and 19, you were still remarkably susceptible. You were still incredibly out of touch with reality and manipulable by these people and these structures they have in place. This girl had been homeschooled and probably protected by loving parents, but still went off to college and got destroyed by the propaganda. This stuff is incredibly caustic and toxic to the mind. These people have spent a lot of time perfecting their

techniques and were understanding how to more effectively brainwash people. It is incredibly dangerous. Of course the real attack on kids is labeling them as queer, defining children by sexuality or encouraging them to believe that they were born in the wrong body. That's right, you feel, you know, maybe you like to play with guys toys a little bit. Maybe you prefer playing with Hot Wheels cars instead of barbie dolls Have you ever considered the fact that you know, maybe you're actually just a man in a woman's body Have you ever considered that you know, maybe The fact that you know, you're a teenager and you just feel awkward

Is because you're in the wrong body. Maybe you should take hormones or mutilate yourself because of it Who didn't feel a little bit awkward as a teenager who wasn't slightly concerned? With how the world perceived them at that age and of course your parents just don't get you They're too out of touch. You can't trust them your cool teacher and who's you know LGBT is going to guide you Mm-hmm your parents. They're out of touch, man. They're old. That's, they've seen more of the world. They know how this works.

You don't wanna trust them. Listen to your queer communist Marxist teacher that has been thoroughly indoctrinated. This person that has no real investment in you, they're the ones that really care, the ones that are simply doing it as a status signal, a social status signal. Oh man, they're gonna go out and they're gonna tell their Marxist book club friends about how they're supporting this trans youth. Oh yes, their parents don't support them, but

you know, I could tell and I talked to them and we discovered that they were trans. Isn't that wonderful? And they'll get so many pats on the back and they'll be told what a great job they're doing and their friends will talk about how you need to protect them from their parents. That's who these people are. It's all about their own social status. They love talking about it. They love getting to virtue signal

to their friends and online. We've seen so many videos from classrooms of these teachers where they say, the only flag you salute in my classroom say the only flag you salute in my classroom is the trans flag. that's what we stand for here. of course they're mostly doing it you know they're trying to be funny like

haha isn't it funny we we worship the trans flag here not the american flag but that's what they really believe that's what they really believe. That's what they really want. SoloCat 1980. Depopulation through abortion, poison injections, assault on the family, gender mutilation and confusion, poison foods, starvation, etc. On the Luciferian agenda. Yeah. Satan hates children. We see this over and over again throughout history. Child sacrifice continually rears its horrific head and cultures over and over again because Satan hates children North American house hippo just says queer phobic quote-unquote. Yeah Queer phobic. I guess that's a step beyond homophobic they

I they're never satisfied with the current words they've got they've got to change it up pretty soon saying homophobic is going to be queer phobic transphobic queer phobic it's what I call language predation they stalk a word and slowly over time Take it down and make it mean something else. Do not obey lgbtq with the cult. Yeah, it functions exactly like a cult They feed you propaganda. They isolate you from family and friends telling you that they don't understand you We understand you we love you It's even similar to cult in the fact that they give you a new name. You know, you're not this person anymore. You're a new person. You're a

completely different individual. In fact, you're a completely different sex. So mutilate yourself to show your allegiance. Dustin D. Helm, this topic is what gives me the most uneasy feeling when considering the future generations and how easily they are manipulated. Yeah, this is one that, again, as a new father I am very, very uneasy about the future when it comes to this kind of thing. It's pervasive. It's all over the place. There's this YouTube, you know, child entertainer, Miss Rachel, and she brought on Dylan Mulvaney to talk about queer subjects. Very queer subjects. She is ostensibly an entertainer for children that are you know three to five years old or something like that Very very young it is everywhere

It is all the time if you are not carefully guarding what your child is Watching seeing or who they're interacting with they're going to be exposed to this And I don't mean exposed to the fact that these people exist. Exposed to this propaganda where they are worshipped and praised and told that they are special, that they're wonderful, and that they are... that normal people are the problem. Because they persecuted these people. They're the reason that the suicide rate, the suicide attempt rate is so high. Dustin, Denver Attaway, college funding by in large comes from government and corporations. Yeah. And

college is where the propaganda kicks into high gear. That's where it really goes crazy. That's where the Frankfurt School was so intent on getting their members into people that had fully internalized this idea of Marxist critical theory. The long march through the institutions has been incredibly successful. Queerness and its various permutations is not something we are born with. There is no gay gene. And of course that's borne out by the fact that we always see anytime an LGBT couple is allowed to adopt a child. For some reason they seem

so much more prone to coming out gay or queer or trans or whatever their label is. It's learned behavior. Oh boy. Gay parents just know how to pick them. Oh that's right. I could just tell this baby was gay. We are born with... there is no gay gene.

The sources of sexual desire are complex, but it is clear that our sexual desires are neither wholly innate nor entirely immutable. They are influenced by many factors, including our choices and our environment. As lesbian New York Times columnist Lydia Polgreen has admitted, I certainly did not experience myself as being born any particular way. I think most of us know intuitively that sexual orientation is not binary and is subject to change over the course of our lives. It's also subject to change by the propaganda that you ingest, by what you see and read and are told

over and over again. From New York Times editors to California legislators, activists claim that they want to protect queer kids. What they actually mean is they want to queer kids. They want to make them queer. They want to turn them into these ideological soldiers, turning kids into shock troops for their agenda. The ideological source of this queer theory, an offshoot of critical theory, its adherents view cultivating queer identities as revolutionary acts against the supposed oppression of a society that's built around the natural family. That's right. You want to resist this oppressive state we've built?

You want to resist the fascist American government? You want to resist your fascist father and mother? Why don't you go queer? Why don't you do that? Well, queerness promises liberation, but it delivers only slavery to desire and ideology. By setting people against the created order, it seeks to sabotage the goods that fulfill human nature. The essence of queerness is revolt against the God-given order of creation in which we are embodied as male and female, the two halves of the human race that are

meant to unite in marriage, which is simultaneously the foundation of human life and culture in this world and a symbol of our fulfillment in the world to come. We have our guest, Tony Arbroom ready. So we're going to take a break from these topics for a bit. And while we're going to take a quick break, when we come back, Tony will be joining us. So stay with us folks. We will be right back So You're listening to The David Knight Show. show. you I'm going to be a good boy. Analyzing the globalist's next move. And now, The David Nutshell. Wait a minute.

Where am I? Sorry Jefferson. The scoundrels who put America on central bank fiat currency used our heads on their coins as some sort of trophy. Despicable. This is outrageous. Washington! I spent my life fighting centralized power. Now the Federal Reserve monopoly parades us around on their monopoly money. Tell me there's some good news to all this. Well there is a coin they can't control, one

that isn't backed by the Fed, but backed by the FedUp, the all-new David Night Show commemorative coin. Now, patriots can support a show that won't sell out with a limited edition coin that's sure to sell out quickly. They say money talks, and this coin has something worth listening to. The truth doesn't need inflation, only support. Welcome back folks. Joining me now is Tony Arderburn of Wise Wolf Gold and he has set up David Knight dot gold. So if you'd like to start accumulating gold and silver, that's the way you can do it. He has Wolf Pack, which is a subscription service and he'll send you gold or silver monthly

So thank you for joining us tony Great to be back. Try. I was good to see you good to see you too And it is always a pleasure to have you on and I like to get to start as we're talking the break your opinion on what's going on with the fed. Of course, we saw Trump and the administration talking about oh oh I think we're gonna fire Powell and then of course he walks back, I don't know, and as we talked about last week, is he even capable of doing that? We saw him of course float this idea, report to the DOJ, you've done some stuff we don't like, which seems to be the only way he'd get him out there is charging him with a

crime. Well I think we would find out who works for who at some level if this was pushed to the limit. I think it's more likely that, you know, how Alt is getting pressure to step down when his term expires. He may leave beforehand, but it's really a question of an open question about policy, because with PAL, we're still talking about fiat currency here, but a currency backed by nothing, that money supply has been increased by trillions upon trillions upon trillions, and the devaluation is almost complete. If you look from 1913 to now, it's about 99 percent of all purchasing power has been erased from the dollar

But at least how you know they see the strong dollar theory You know and they want to hold on as long as they can through a dollar that the world saves I mean if you look at interest rates If you raise interest rates, it encourages countries and large holders of dollars to say, well, you know, it's four or 5%. I'll put it over here and I'll store it. It'll make, you know, short term, it'll make X amount for me and just parking it. And so there'll be those dollars won't go back into circulation and they won't bring

down the purchasing power. So that's how the game works in a microcosm. Well, what happens when you lower rates, you know, you see like the short-term boons and the stock market goes crazy. There's a lot of liquidity. There's a lot of lending going on. Things are being built for good or ill, some things that probably shouldn't. That's the way fiat currency works. So pal has been raising rates faster than any Fed share in history and that's because of the President money expansion that's never happened before it at this level like we talk about metrics like 80% of all the dollars ever created

In the last five years and it's probably worse than that. I've been saying that for three years now. So it's probably worse in some ways than just that, but that's something to soak in and that's shocking. So I think when you raise rates, you contract the money supply and again, there's a lot of dollars that get hoarded that way. So there's a strong that's a theory of a strong dollar, which you know, if it's not backed by anything, how is it strong? But that's just the way it works. Trump's philosophy as we've seen, I don't know if you can label it a philosophy, it's more like an operation. Whereas we're going to have, we're going to have these tariff

threats and we're going to put 100% tariffs on countries that won't use the dollar if they're a BRICS nation or if they create a competing currency or whatever. And it doesn't make any sense, but we have the tariff threat which created a whole host of black swan issues and things that ripple across the markets with imports and exports and other things like that. But he wants lower interest rates Travis he wants he wants to get those rates down as low as possible maybe to zero like a Bank of Japan situation where we're just

just there's of the money printer goes burr that's what he wants and you know if you zoom out and then this is probably a philosophical you know if you zoom out, and this is probably a philosophical, you know, theoretical debate, but can you make the money for it? Yeah, if you're thinking about it theoretically, we know that the technocracy wants a central bank digital currency, and I'm kind of skipping over traditional finance to talk about ethereal Conspiracy, which is probably smarter because that's where we are. It's the timeline. We're on We know that the stable coins are

As I've always said the dollar is not going to zero. It's going to digital So it looks to me like the current economic order that we grew up with everything since Breton was and the Nixon shock of 71 and this fiat experiment it looks like they're just gonna go and do a controlled demolition in some way like that's the that's the plan and I just run up because we're already at you know run the debt is almost 130 percent I bet the GDP. So most domestic product, I mean, this hasn't happened since World War Two. And so this is unsustainable. Most economists agree on that it's about 130%. We're reaching that. And that's a tipping point. So there has to be something has to happen. As a matter of fact, I've been using AI, not as a crutch, but actually just conversing with it and asking you questions about this particular thing. If all fiat currencies go to zero throughout history and the dollar is no different, how does the dollar remain and retain any sort of

purchasing power in losing the world's reserve currency and de-dollarization? I put all these factors in and the AI actually said that my question was very astute. It was a very interesting question and it started listing all the ways that it would retain a value after, you know, so much money printing and inflation and since all currencies go to zero. And its conclusion was going through stable coins, going into stable and then being backed by something else. It had to, in every conclusion through the AI was that it had to be a reset. Yeah. There had to be a reset of the monetary system. So there's no way that because of the sheer amount of dollars that have been created and the fact that the world is moving away from this system and

D-dollar rising with the Fed with the United States together has no choice. I have to come up with a different way to Back the dollar it just can't be done anymore through fear sheer money velocity So I think that the stable coin issue is very interesting to watch. We just had the genius act that's being passed and I believe, you know, through things like a tether and other things that, you know, we have the stabilization of the dollar through digital and blockchain and there's a merger there that I believe it's very interesting it's gonna have have to happen in order for the dollar to be to Stop losing such Massive market share and if the world wants access it's gonna have to go through stable coins a really interesting thing

One thing that I've been curious about since they started floating stable coins They say well, it's stable because it's tied to an asset like the US dollar I'm just like the US dollar isn't tied to anything though how can how does removing it one level suddenly make it stabilized it just seems as though they're saying it is this way and you know it's this way because we say so and I'm so curious as to how they get to that logic yeah this stable coin is stable because it's tied to the US dollar, which is completely unstable and fiat and it just doesn't make any sense to me. And I think I think you and improve dollars.

It's like you ever seen those the PR rollouts for somebody that had a they're trying to redo their image. But it's the new, new and improved. That's what this is. And of course, it's not, it's not just, it's not improved. It's digitized, it's tokenized, it's blockchain. And it's, it's a, remember how Zignu Brzezinski would talk about an in-run around sovereignty,

you know, with the technocracy. This is an in-run around the same thing, oversight, because you're having this public-private partnership where you get CBDC just in a different form. And that's what I think we're watching with the stablecoin. There's a lot of open questions there and I think we're still still seeing what the the end results going to be but that seems to me the only way that they continue to prop up the dollars through the stablecoin system and they're gonna have to figure out what they're gonna back it by even that even the AI running simulations was showing me that a gold back stable coin a

Bitcoin based dollar it has to be based on energy in some way because we lost and if you notice to Travis What's interesting that these financial networks? They don't even get into which is Epical events like losing the petrodollar last year, you know talking to your dad. I was like 50 years we just lost it. And there wasn't anything like, oh, let's, let's do it this way. Or here's a, here's something we can trade for. Nothing. We just let it lapse. And I thought, well, that's interesting. It's because they're resetting it. They're resetting the table, they're going to go away from the energy bet based petrodollar to and of course we had a you can argue that gold was energy as well. Going from gold to possibly Bitcoin something like that. They're going to use it. It has to have be backed by something.

And there's a lot of open questions on what that's going to be. But the current dollar form. There's a lot of open questions on what that's going to be but the current dollar form You know, there's a philosophy between you know, your original question between how and whatever Trump represents it's like the Acceleration like pressing the gas like this Just go ahead and get this thing on the road and there'll be golden parachutes and there will be you know a Symbolence of everything's okay for a little while But that will again it will end in debt, it will end in bankruptcies, it will end in over leverage, it will end in... A lot of times when there's just massive liquidity, the wrong things get tension. That's what happens in a fiat world.

Things that shouldn't exist will exist and those things will again they'll come to an end because of just physics it just happens So it'll be interesting to see who who wins this bet. I think we know what's going to happen I think the money printer is gonna go burp Okay, I think they're gonna do that regardless if it's the Trump administration or if it's we're going to do it and whoever Powell represents or what faction of that that dollar system is old world, it's old Bretton Woods, it's old and they're going to I think the technocracy of who are battling and vying for control wants to go ahead and again press the accelerator

and let's let's get this thing to the next level. Yeah we we know that for a fact even if we take these people to words that they're trying to do something positive for the American people for people in general that they are largely insulated from the consequences by the sheer amount of wealth they possess like even if the dollar goes to zero they're so diversified into other options that it's not really going to affect them. They'll still be massively wealthy. So they don't have to really be concerned with, well, if something goes wrong and we collapse the markets, you know, that's going to suck for some people, not for us. So even if we take them at the word of saying we're trying to do the right thing, it's when you don't have any stakes in anything, it makes it very easy not to care. Where you

can, as you said, they can just slam their foot on the accelerator and say we're gonna take it to the next level, whatever the consequences are, it's fine since they're not going to affect me. But realistically we know that's not even the case. They're not concerned with doing the right thing or helping the people of America or other countries where they're going to implement this this is about removing, you know stratifying wealth even further consolidating it more into their own hands and Of course with things like stablecoin and CBDC is when it goes fully digital as we've talked about

That means they're fully able to just shut you off at the source say nope You don't get to play in our economy anymore. You said something naughty online. And we see this here, got this article from zero edge as Western Union joins stable coin race and eyes crypto partnerships. That's what the CEO is saying. So these things are being adopted. They're going to come into use. You don't have players like Western Union or really, you know any of company like this or even other companies We had someone say in chat the other day that I believe it was a grocery store chain was implementing You know the ability to take stable coins and things like that These companies aren't going to get on the bandwagon unless they're sure it's coming down the pipeline

They're not gonna start investing in infrastructure unless they believe it's really happening They're not going to start investing in infrastructure unless they believe it's really happening. So that's a bellwether. This sort of thing, it's not just a, oh, this could happen. It's that this is happening. The stable coin is coming one way or the other and Trump is at the forefront of this. The genius act, you know, he talked all about, you're like, no, we're not going to have CBDC. We're going to block it by executive order. And then he goes and signs this, which completely overrides what he said. And it's just,

this is a tremendous blow to, you know, your own personal ability to gather wealth and potentially prepare for future generations. Like you want to be able to pass something down to your children, but this will make that completely and utterly impossible, especially if they implement a system like in China where money has an expiration date. You don't get to keep it. If you don't spend it, eventually they just come in and say, no, that's expired. You didn't put it into the economy and therefore it's not valid anymore. That is a complete and utter attack on your ability to store wealth to be able to save and prepare and the genius act is just it's a You know, we've talked about this for so many years and for you know

You and my dad have been talking about these CBD sees and how they were on the horizon And it seemed like they were just kind of holding position for a while. They were sitting there They talked about wanting it. But now this is, you know, full speed ahead. And it's truly incredible to see how quickly they are moving forward at this point. And it seems likely. I think this is the stark difference. You're right. The language has changed. The outcome will be the same. And it may be worse if it's run this way because of the, I mean even though the Federal Reserve is not federal and it's not a reserve, it's centralized in a way that has some semblance of oversight. I mean I know it's still the

Federal Reserve, it's the creature from Jekyll Island, but you're talking about even moving further privatized into These stable coins and there it could be great and one end where you have like you just mentioned You think about all those retailers out there that don't have to pay credit card fees If you can go direct with your stable coin if you can just hit you know if you can Especially through the internet if you can just hit, you know, if you can, especially through the internet, if you can just blockchain to blockchain, those are as good as those going to

shrink those credit card fees. People don't realize how much retailers, the scam of credit card fees is it's generational. I mean, they've made, they're scamming off of everybody's energy and everybody's creativity and everybody's risk for nothing. I mean, it just, it's transactionally making, it's basically what I make on gold and silver without ever having any investment anywhere and that's everybody's transaction. That's that's a evil genius. Really evil genius. Whoever came up with that that that's even sustainable, but that's what

they do, but stable coins. So in theory solve that and then the same thing with Bitcoin and other things, cryptocurrencies do better to solve that, at least the giant fees that you're paying to credit card companies. So on that end, that's good. But there's the technocracy and how they implement it and the lack of even the semblance of oversight when it comes to that, you're absolutely right. That's the darkness. That is the risk. And we know how these people think we know what, you know, as far as centralization and control, you know, if I had long wondered what

took Larry Fink, BlackRock, why he pivoted and said he went from Bitcoin is a measurement of money laundering, metric of money laundering, and he went from that to Bitcoin's going to go to 700,000 and we're totally backing it and here's our ETF. And I thought, that's a weird pivot. Well, if you look at the stable coin world and how it would work, coin plays a major role, and it plays a major role in backing the value of these things. And because of Bitcoin's limited supply. So that's kind of a neutral thing. That's neither good nor bad. It just means it backs that it backs that play in the sense that you could get in and out and you could back it by having this limited

supply of things for a store of value kind of like digital gold. So it's something it's really interesting to watch as we see the world de-dollarizing that trend continues. I saw a story today Travis that precious metal sales from Russia to China are up 80% this year. So like China is just importing more and more, even though it's the largest gold producer in the world, it's importing from it's ordering from Russia who's got massive natural resources, gold and silver and the rest. Silver put is on Russia's strategic reserve asset list. We're nearing like 14-year eyes on silver. So there's a lot of interesting stuff happening right now with commodities being at central bank buying, sovereign wealth fund buying of gold, and things happening with Bitcoin as well. So these are all

converging together in the same time that we're going to have the argument about Powell and Trump and what's passed. But at the end of the day, de-dollarization is still happening. The surprise, the dark horse here may be that stable coins. And I've always said the dollar is not going to zero, it's going to digital. And it's digit going to zero. It's going to digital and it's gonna ditch digitizing right now Yeah, it's happening live before our eyes it's Again, it's crazy for me to see because this is something I've kind of grown up with you know not necessarily grown up, but it's been something that's been happening on the periphery and

you'll in governmental scale things generally take so long to manifest that you kind of forget they were ever happening in the first place and it just kind of shows up one day but this is something that went from yeah it's happening to it's here and it's going to happen and it's truly incredible to see the speed with which this is developing got some comments here Dustin D Helm can't wait for Tony to open the new Denison location I want to be the first person to buy a silver round through a drive-through window Let me well in the next

30 days or so we're Wise Wolf least an old branch bank in in Denison on Main Street and It's an old branch bank in Denison on Main Street. It's going to be fun. It's not very large, but the tube still works. The drive-through window is still there. You've got the tray where you open it up and people can go through. So we'll have all that. I'll be the only drive-through gold, silver, and Bitcoin.

It's the wise... We're going to call it the bank. You're going by the bank. You can come see us. That's where you need to bank. Anyway, that's fantastic I think on yourself bank on yourself and go get some gold and silver from Tony and Denison or if you aren't local You can go to David Knight dot gold and do it there defy tyrant 1776 says America thrives on debt and usury It's a wicked system. Yeah, it's 1976 says America thrives on debt and usury. It's a wicked system. Yeah, it's It's funny. My dad has talked about how you know when he was young, you know credit card The amount of interest they would charge you, you know It's much much smaller and now they we reached a point where you can get 30% interest on credit cards

You can have these exorbitant rates that you're never able to pay off It's something that you would hear the mafia doing. You get in debt with them, and they put an interest rate on there that makes it impossible. And so you are their man for the rest of your life. Or else they're gonna come up and they're gonna break your legs.

Now the credit card companies won't break your legs, but they'll ruin your credit score, which is what, again, as he points out, the American economy runs on. If you don't have a decent credit score, you can't really buy anything of substance. You're not going to be able to get a house or a car unless you can flat out pay cash for them, in which case, you know, you're probably doing so well. You can do that. Yeah. If you can afford to do that, you know, you don't have to worry about anything else really.

Like, if you've got that kind of liquid cash, not much is a problem for you as a general rule. But for the average American, these systems are incredibly predatory. You're forced to get a credit card, and they know how easy it is to get people to overspend with them, to spend beyond your means. And so many Americans are just in massive amounts of debt. Just debt that seems that's very unlikely they'll ever pay off and they'll always be behind

this just continual eight ball. It is a truly predatory system. It is based on the fact they know you'll overspend with it. You're not gonna truly keep track of it. You're gonna open more and more lines of credit. It's... the American system is broken in so many different ways. Knights of the Storm says people are talking about the Genius Act, but not about the prior Clarity Act. The Clarity Act is how you know the Genius Act is about CBDC. The Clarity Act was rushed through just before the Genius and sets up the authority. Genius is the framework. Together they indicate an oncoming CBDC. Also the US is working on retail CBDC over wholesale. That's huge. Retail is what you and I use while wholesale is bank-to-bank transactions. Look up

project Hamilton. That's the retail CBDC we are working on right now. I've actually got an article here from Scott Besson. Well, it's about Scott Besson. Says we will center financial regulation on Main Street, not Wall Street. They know that, you know, Wall Street and the government are kind of hand in hand anyway.

They're gonna go along with, you know, whatever happens. They're two peas in the same pod. They're going to come after Main Street. They're two peas in the same pod. They're going to come after Main Street. They're going to target you and me. They're going to, as I said, put these stablecoins' ability to use them in at the grocery store. So that, as I said, when the infrastructure starts getting built, that's when you know it's serious.

Companies don't buy into something unless they know it's coming. And it is incredibly, anytime the government says we're gonna focus... All the stablecoins by the way Travis, it makes the big corporations... Go ahead sir. Oh no, go on, please. I was just saying that it makes all these companies lenders. It makes them banks. It bypasses traditional bank. It makes everything a lender. You just talked about how even like Walmart or any of these big retailers, they

issue their own coin, their own stable coin, off the backbone of whatever coin. It could that could be tether could be anything. And they create this new system where they can lend you out. You, you can get into debt with anyone. And then think about that, like how that would be. So, I mean, in some ways it's good to be decentralized, but then you're just talking about every avenue to expand personal debt. It is interesting and you know I think I noticed there's a change in the economy right now just off my business

and watching you know talking to people and knowing what's going on things in Wolfpack where the prices of precious metals are going up and up and up and the people buying from me is decreasing because the big people are buying. That's what I want to communicate and telegraph to everybody is that institutions are buying all these metals and the average person is like if they can't afford a certain amount, they just can't. They can't make these big moves They were and and if you already have them you have them. So that's that's a metric. I think of the economic situation It's really interesting and they're definitely they're definitely telegraphing you something they're saying something about

You know the purchases from these big big players and and then what's happening to everyday folks? It's hard. The economy is hard for people. I don't care what spectrum you're on right now, it's tough. The prices are increasing and the uncertainty of liquidity. I totally get that and that's what we built Wolfpack for is affordability of getting out of fiat and actually getting real value for it without having to do very much and you, you know, just not having to pay attention to it, just set it and forget it. And we have that set up for people.

And I think that's gonna be more important than ever as the dollar continues to be reset. And it's gonna continue to lose some purchasing power along the way and to this stable coin reality. Yeah, we have a good comment here from Whackjaw. He says, I have no idea of the difference between what a stablecoin is and CBDC is. From what I understand,

central bank digital currency would be the primary issue from the central bank. Like the Fed would say, this is the new standard of currency for the United States, whatever they choose to call it. Whereas a stablecoin is something that different companies can mint their own version of it. And this is based off whatever assets we hold here or there.

That's my understanding of it. I could be wrong. Tony, would you be able to give a more in-depth explanation? Well, I think your synopsis is correct. I mean, the central bank digital currency, like we were saying earlier, even though it's not a lot of oversight and it is a private banking consortium, a CBDC is at least right there. It's centralized. It's, you know, you're going to see a Jerome Powell or whatever, but a stable coin system is decentralized, well, decentralized in a way, but public private

partnerships. This is the technocracy This is the this is the way that the system would work on that because that's the difference between you know Like a Kamala Harris woman the trampoline is still getting centralized blockchain Techno matter of fact when Trump came in and one of the first things he did he signed the anti-state duck the executive order against Central Bank digital currency and then in his next breath he says, now we're going to do these stable coins and these stable coins are going to be great. You see? It's that we're going to use that and this is the

direction it's going and I'm still figuring it out. This is always a student, never a master at any of this stuff because there's too many moving parts and you have somebody that claims they know they're delusional. There's too many things to try to understand but I do the more that I sit in this and meditate on and think about it that that would be the way to go and you use the stable coins as far as the controller they want to get control of that in real-time expansion and contraction of the money supply under that blockchain system. So The difference between a CBDC and a stable coin, whatever you want to call it. It won't be a CBDC. It'll be something else Is that the CBDC would have more oversight

That's it I mean that's it and that's limited oversight, but they would still have some oversight and And I think these stable points are more seductive Because it says oh, well, this is just the financial markets. This isn't you know, yeah This isn't just the Fed thing. This isn't the Fed coin. This is something different This is my dollar, you know, and they it's I think that's psychologically Going to be more palpable and then we'll, you know, and they it's, I think that's psychologically going to be more palpable. And then we'll see, you know, that I have all these questions about what we did with the Petrodoll and everything else. And it looks like we're just we've just been setting

the stage for stable coin. Remember, Scott Besson, he's got ties to, to tether and other things guys back in the previous administration, we're working on all this stuff. They've been working on stable coins for a long time. Yeah, and again, government loves deniability. Anytime they can kind of shift blame into other areas, whether it's one avenue of government shifting it onto a different bureaucracy,

or whether it's government saying, it's not us, it's these big corporations. You don't have to worry about that. Look, it's not a CBDC, it's Walmart stable coin or it's, you know, whatever, Amazon stable coin. We all know how these corporations play so nicely with the government and basically do whatever they want at a whim.

They're all in bed together. So it's effectively the same thing. And of course it's effectively the same thing. And of course, it's still digital and can be turned off instantaneously. If the government comes in and says, Hey, this individual over here that's holding a massive amount of your stable coin, we don't like them. We don't like what they're posting. We don't like what they're saying. We don't like what they're doing. Turn off their account, seize that drop it to zero zero, remove it, they're gonna do it. They're not going to say, oh I don't think so, Mr. Government, I don't think I'm going to do that, that sounds like it's a violation of this and an infringement of

that. They're just going to go, sir, yes sir, and your stablecoin will vanish. It'll be redistributed or put into a government holding account somewhere because that's how these people operate It's exactly right yeah, we've got some more comments And I know we're a little bit over time, but I like to get through them if you're okay with staying for just a bit longer Sure, go ahead. Jerry Alatalo says you got a problem with stable coin. You got something against stability. Yeah, that's how they are It's stable. It's good. It's great. It's stable. It's like right there and there's a tether and it's tethered to yeah It's like the Patriot What are you anti patriotic it's a big beautiful bill

Dustin D helm, why don't you like big beautiful things? full bill. Dustin D. Helm. Why don't you like big beautiful things? Exactly. They always pull that. They call it something that it isn't. The exact inverse of it. Dustin D. Helm says CBDC by the end of the year. Can you ask Tony how far out he thinks we are from CBDC? So he thinks it's by the end of the year and wants your opinion on if you think it'll happen by then. I think it's more like a couple, three years of implementation. I mean, things move slowly and it has to because you're talking about the behemoth that has to get redirected. So I think it's just a, I think there's a series of events where you'll have a quickening and then there'll be a little

bit of a little bit of cooling off and then they'll have another portion. We'll see that the systems will start to absorb this new technology, especially after the Genius Act. I think this is going to be a moment where we just start seeing a lot of things open up. End of the year is probably a little soon But who knows? Who knows anymore? They definitely they surprised me with their Whatever timeline they're on or whatever simulation they're running And I was surprised when we lost the petrodollar and did nothing about it. So now I'm starting to see why we did it. Yeah

the One thing you always have to consider is they do need to have physical, tangible infrastructure in place for any of these plans. So that's always something to look at when assessing timelines. How quickly can they get the infrastructure in place to utilize these things and then get people to adopt them?

So that's going to be like getting grandma onto stable coin is going to take a little bit of doing. So you gotta consider the real world applications. Like getting grandma onto stable coin is going to take a little bit of doing so You got to consider the real world Applications so look at 1980 all credit card companies are loan sharking people Yeah, every single one of them is charging interest rates that again would have made the mafia blush back in the day They would have been like we can do that to people. That's crazy. That's evil we couldn't how could we do this that's an that's unconscionable don't frag me rations will always make the mom yeah as you look at what happened to Las Vegas it used to be run by the mom he was talking to my friend Sam

Tripoli yesterday I came out to California to do tinfoil hat and we just we talked about that like you know you used to be able to go to Vegas, you lose a thousand dollars, but you get a $5 stake and now everything's hundreds of, and there's no incentive, like it's not cheaper. You know, you still get, it's robbed every which way because it's run by, I mean, the corporations will get you, you know, at least the mob will throw you a bone.

Yeah. The corporations are just there to maximize profit on every single avenue. No matter what it is, they'll rob you blind. Don't frag me bro, all economies are subject to the central bank cartel. That is a debt usury based monetary policy within their fractionalized banking, aka quantitative easing beast system. And Gard Goldsmith, good to see you Gard. Always a pleasure.

You can go check Gard out at Liberty conspiracy says if people knew more about project cedar and CBDC manipulation be a stable coin equivalent they'd be buying more precious metals every day yeah that's another thing is so many people just you know they hear CBDC they hear stable coin and again they just tune out like I don't care about that I don't want to whatever that is doesn't matter to me you know this type of news is something that as a general rule it's like, I don't care about that, I don't wanna, whatever that is, doesn't matter to me. This type of news is something that, as a general rule, it's kinda, like, when you read it, it's dull, it has real gigantic impacts, and it causes massive chaos

when something goes wrong with it. But it's generally very dry and uninteresting to read. It's like, oh, the market swung up a point here, it swung down a point there, this is going up, that's going down. It's not a fun or really interesting read, but it has Massive impact so getting people to actually learn about it is very very difficult Even for me. I'm reading it's like oh wow, you know one point here two points there. What does that really mean?

What does it matter? But it has a gigantic real-world impact especially with the genius act coming through Wally walrus I'll tell you what I'm working 60 hours a week right now Just trying to keep vehicles running to keep working getting ridiculous out here in the real world all of my insurance is doubled this year I can barely afford to keep my construction company open Everything is getting more and more expensive and it's getting more expensive rapidly and sorry to hear that's going on with your business. Wally I hope things get better for you well, um We're 12 minutes over time. I really appreciate you staying tony and of course you have america unplugged

Are you able to do that show today? Are you going to be live after this? I'll be live. Yeah, i'm going to be doing the arterburn radio transmission We'll be over the america unplugged channel on rumble and and on my ex at Tony Ardurban. So Come join us fantastic. And of course talk precious metals and parapolitics and whatever else is on my mind Absolutely, and of course we will be rating Tony's rumble stream So if you want to watch him you can stay with us and we'll pass you on over But thank you again for joining us Tony and thank you for setting up David Knight gold again If you want to get gold or silver you can go to David Knight dot gold and let Tony know you came through us

So thank you Tony really do appreciate it. Hope you have a wonderful rest of your day Me too. Thank you Travis. Appreciate it. Thank you. All right folks. We're gonna take a quick break and then we'll be right back. The The The You're listening to The David Knight Show. Unlike most revolutions where the people rise against a real economic oppression, in our case here in Boston, we are fighting for purely an abstract principle. Hear, hear, hear! It is, however, not nearly so abstract as the young gentleman supposes. The issue involved here is one of monopoly. Hey! Today, the British government will monopolize the sale of tea in our country.

Tomorrow, it will be something else. The Liberty, it's your move. You're listening to the David Knight Show. Welcome back folks. Thank you for still being here with us. It's always a pleasure to talk to Tony He's been a good friend of our family and a good friend to the show for many years now Again, if you want gold or silver you go to David Knight dot gold I want to get back into the LGBT stuff because I do think To me, this is probably the most insidious and important issue. All these other things are they can affect you in your monetary ways and other ways like that but this is attacking the family directly. This is targeting children

directly and that is you know whether whether the future is filled with CBDCs and stable coins if there are no, there is no future at all. There will be no one to fight back if this propaganda isn't countered, isn't talked about. In fact, this article ties directly into it, But first we've got some comments from before the interview kwd 68 this was from when I was talking about the LGBT before the alphabet gang has dropped the born that way so they can better justify Grooming. Yeah, it's about how you feel whatever you feel in the moment Perhaps, you know, you're feeling like a man today or you're feeling like a woman or maybe something in between who cares? Maybe you're some kind of weird, made-up gender. Maybe

you're a fairy. Maybe you're a little fairy or a unicorn or something like that. That's something that people legitimately get into. And we can laugh at it and say, that's ridiculous. No one would ever actually believe that. But once you have established the fact that, you know, it's however you feel, everything becomes equally valid to these people. If a man can be a woman and a woman can be a man, why can't a man be a unicorn or a dragon or whatever he wants to be? It's an attack on reality itself. But this article about... this does tie into the family issue. It's talking about why are the wealthy so unhappy? And it's because the love of money, as the Bible says, is the

root of all evil. Money won't satisfy you. There is nothing physical in this world that will satisfy a spiritual need. We see it over and over again with these people that are given everything. They find massive success and it's never enough. Whether it's, you know, rock stars and they get fame and fortune and the adoration of millions of people, they continually develop these drug addictions they spiral out of control and end up empty and broken or there's people like you know Jeff Bezos or the in previous times the Rockefellers you've got you know millions billions of dollars how much is enough oh just a little bit more. Just a little bit more. Because it's

never enough. You can't satisfy that need. Why are the wealthy so unhappy? The article is about a study found that people in developing countries are happier than those in developed countries. It suggests that people in developing countries often have a sense of purpose and meaning in their lives, which contributes to their happiness. As a general rule, they're also more tied in with their families. They're more focused on these things that really matter. Initial data from a $43.4 million research initiative shows that individuals living in developing countries score higher and having purpose We were made by God to work and to you know multiply and fill the earth to have families and

as Society gets further away from that as becomes more decent, as we all move further towards chasing our own just individual, you know, meaningless happiness, these trinkets we can buy, it doesn't satisfy that desire for greater purpose. There's no amount of Funko Pops that will replace having a child, that will replace having a family, a mother and father that love you. And of course having a purpose is incredibly important to happiness and the antithesis of that is some CBDC run world where AIs do all the work.

Yeah, where you're given a UBI. You're given just enough to kind of live, but not enough to kind of live but not enough to Do anything of meaning not enough to start a family or have children You won't have a job. You won't have a family. You'll be given An AI that you can talk to it'll be given some kind of metaverse plug-in where you can experience different things and none of it real. The Global Flourishing Study is surveying 200,000 participants from 22 countries over five years looking at which one score highest for human flourishing. The study released its first set of data in April and I think this also is part of the reason why the LGBT is so successful here in these developed countries

they they've robbed us of a lot of meaning and purpose and People feel this general malaise this discontentment. I realize something is wrong, but they can't quite put their finger on what it is and someone coming in and saying, well obviously you're discontent because you know you're in the wrong body. It's a lot easier to sell someone who has all their needs met on that than someone who is out there having to really work for a living. These are really kind of designer

problems. You know, this isn't something someone in a third world country can afford to indulge. They can't sit there and wonder, you know, oh, maybe I am a man or maybe I am a woman. They've got actual issues to contend with. They're actually out there solving problems, out there, you know, scraping a living out of the earth for their family.

I don't mean necessarily like actually farming, but just like carving it out of stone. We define flourishing as some... There was a study a long time ago, I believe I heard about this from How to Win Friends and Influence People, talked about the study about the largest study at the time of human happiness and what caused people to be happy. And I'm sure it was all not counting third world countries, just in first world countries, but they found that a lot of relationships with a lot of people being connected to your community is the main thing in that study. And I'm sure these two are connected, you know having a purpose ties you into the community and they are attacking both of those things with

the lockdown stuff that we've seen all of the further isolation and Now, you know UV eyes. Yeah We define flourishing as someone who's doing well in all aspects of life in all the domains It's physical health mental health meaning and purpose close relationships character Virtues and financial security. Those are all important on a scale of 0 to 10 Indonesia scored highest for flourishing with a score of 8.47 followed by Mexico at number 2 and the Philippines now score of 8.47 followed by Mexico at number two and the Philippines. Now Indonesia and the Philippines. I don't know too much directly about Indonesia and I know not I don't know too much directly about any of these countries

but I do know the Philippines is incredibly poor. A large portion of it is still very third world. Running water is seen as a luxury. And they're beating us out. Mexico of course has its problems. It's not as dirt poor as the Philippines, but they're still remarkably happier than we are. Johnson said many people who live in poverty still have a sense of meaning and purpose.

While there are people in the United States who have better economic resources, they may lack understanding of their purpose in life. And of course, purpose doesn't really have anything to do with money. Like we talked about with Rockefeller, if your purpose is to accumulate more money, that's a never-ending cycle. Just

a little bit more. It's an empty, infinite loop. It's a small and confined eternity. Enoch Ropp left his home in Kenya in 2021 to attend Dorton University in Sioux Center, Iowa. He didn't think it added up to just attend college, get a job, have a family retire, and die, he said. God placed him in the world to do something especially for his fellow human beings. There's a puzzle that I have. I feel like I have to play a part in the puzzle to make it complete in God's kingdom, Ropp said.

That's kind of how I look at it. While Kenya scored high in purpose in the first year data, it scored in the negative in life satisfaction. People in developing countries get used to hardship, Ropp said, which might be why these countries score higher in happiness. When he came to the United States, he noticed a different attitude. There's a lot of I deserve this, he said, adding that people get stressed if they don't receive what they expect. Jeffrey Rylink is a psychiatrist just outside of Grand Rapids, Michigan. When he gets on

his phone, checks his mailbox, or reads billboards, he said they say the same thing. Bye, bye, bye, bye. He believes people in developing countries are happier because of a lack of covetousness. They aren't bombarded with this continual propaganda of want. This continual bombardment of look at how good this other person has it. Look at the life these people are leading. Look at these influencers and how they're jet-setting from here to there. Don't you want this designer handbag or this expensive pair of shoes? Outside in Malang, Indonesia, Zainullah farms and

teaches English. Zainullah, who has one name pointed to wealth, also he said money could never satisfy a person. People always want more, he said, adding that happiness comes from contributing to society. That is part of it. Feeling like you're able to contribute. Feeling like you're able to give back to the people that matter to you. They're not just doing work that helps pay the bills or helps their family, Culkin said. They're doing work that helps their entire community and that's a sense of belonging that's hard to replicate. And that's back to the tied into the community thing that I had seen before.

Dashauna Everett, a licensed marriage and family therapist outside Dallas said she often doesn't have to wonder what causes her clients' mental health concerns. The walk of my door with the phone in their hand, I know, she said. When their social media and cell phones became more, when social media and cell phones became more prevalent, Everett said, her work changed drastically.

It became much harder. I've seen the demise of families and individuals arise in depression and anxiety like nobody's business," she said. Of course, as Lainz pointed out, the lockdowns and isolation of 2020, it did so much to atomize people, take them away from each other, break down connections. The human brain was not equipped for these non-stop hits of high levels of dopamine, Everett said, adding that it stimulates the brain, keeping it keeping it wired. A person gets a high quick that leaves in an hour, but they return to their

phones again and again to get another dopamine hit. Everett said the search for pleasure often doesn't deliver. It's temporal, it's fleeting, it's just this stimulus. There's nothing deeper to it. It doesn't reach the soul. It doesn't matter how many TikToks you watch or how many Instagram posts you scroll through. It's not going to give you any real deeper satisfaction. It doesn't matter how many funny little videos you get to see. As a believer, I also read scripture and understand that the heaping of pleasures to your own lust is not satisfying ever, it said. You come up empty and so pursuing that all the time, it does lend itself to emptiness.

The only thing that will truly satisfy a person's deeper need is God. I forget who said it, but there's that saying, you know, every human has a God-sized hole in their heart. You need that connection with God. You need the connection with the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. If you don't have that, everything eventually breaks down. Everything else is simply temporal. Social media can also give a false sense of intimacy, she noted. Online interactions allow people to feel accepted without putting in the work for accountability

or problem solving that in-person relationships require. I've talked about that with AI that's an even further step Your When you're not directly in front of someone you're able to potentially be more open with them because you know Consequently if it comes down to it, you can simply turn off the chat. You can unfriend them unfollow them, whatever and It's not much of a loss Or is in person, there's this, you know, you have to worry. What if they judge me? What if they do this? What if they do that? With AI, it removes even the sense of loss. There's no concern that the person on the other end of the screen is going to have negative

feelings about what you said. The AI doesn't feel at all. However, God calls people into relationships, he calls us to accountability all the time. He calls us to a lifestyle of confession and forgiveness, which depicts his very character. A global flourishing study has four more years to go before completion. Flourishing doesn't mean living long, but living well, Johnson said, which he believes is how God designed people. I think that's how God created us, he said. We see that mapped out in Genesis 1 and 2, but we live in a Genesis 3 world. We're never going to be perfectly flourishing. It's a journey. The world has fallen. Got some comments. This was about the economy. It's from Jerry Alitalo.

Everyone I've talked to is vehemently opposed to eliminating cash and converting to central bank digital currency. Mark of the Beast. Fascist, totalitarian slavery. Yeah, it's not very popular with people that actually understand what's going on. When you explain what it is to people, it's obvious that it's a bad deal, that it's dangerous, and that it just gives the government more control. I read those other two comments as well. Michael Knowles, debanked by Stripe without explanation due to legally binding order. This is from LifeSite News. Stripe, the largest payment processor in the US, debanked conservative commentator Michael Knowlesles reportedly due to a legally binding order.

As the Daily Wire host shared on Monday, his ex-monetization payments, which are processed through Stripe, abruptly stopped. Six months ago, when he received a message that he hadn't set up his Stripe account, despite Noel's efforts over the course of six months to determine the reason for his debanking, Stripe never explained the reason for the decision and instead told him to consult ex for an explanation. An explanation. We'd recommend contacting your platform X

for more information, as we can't provide any further information on this account hold. Stripe employee Lay initially told Knowles. Lay then noted that the hold was first place on his account on October 11th, 2024, but insisted the hold could still not be explained. Sorry, no, you don't get to know why you're depersoned.

In his X thread recounting the back and forth, Knowles wondered whether the hold began in October 2024 due to his vocal support of someone they had already tried to debank. In linked to news coverage about Stripes debanking a President Donald Trump's campaign website after the 2021 storming of the Capitol, at the time sources said,

and of course storming is in quotations there. The time sources said the President's campaign account was cut off for violating Stripe's policies against encouraging violence. Since Stripe repeatedly insisted that Knowles consult X for the reason behind his account hold, he did so, but still could not obtain an explanation. X simply referred him to Stripe's policy on prohibited businesses. Of course, Elon Musk free speech platform at work there. Since I haven't been distributing fake IDs, selling drugs, or jamming telecommunications

equipment, it seems Stripe concluded that my political opinions had somehow violated their policy against encouraging unlawful violence against certain demographics. Knowles wrote above a screenshot of Stripe's list of legal products and services. They simply condemning a lifestyle is enough to get you kicked off of these things. If you aren't vociferously in praise of certain people groups, they'll interpret that as violence. Not actual stochastic terrorism where you call for violence and people act on it, but simply not supporting it. And of course in their thing, as you can see here, they say anything against any other

immutable characteristics other after they list sexual orientation. Apparently that's an immutable characteristic. That's right. Except for the fact that we see these people continually say, oh, well, I feel like this today or that the other day. Of course, I've never encouraged unlawful violence against anyone, but in the absence of any real explanation from Stripe, I can only conclude that they've now decided that certain conservative opinions amount to illegal activity," Knowles commented. As a conservative

Christian, libertarian Christian, you are a threat to their system. Your very existence is a threat. Your existence is also a condemnation of their empty, destructive lifestyles. And of course the very things that he was debanked for were just giving the biblical stance on LGBT. It is preaching the gospel, if these people have their way is going to be a Bank debanking offense. In fact, they are already doing that in many ways Yeah, it'll be a hate crime to tell people That they need to repent Your very existence as a Christian as a family

existence as a Christian, as a family, is condemnation to them. If you have a happy wife and happy children, it makes them have to look at their miserable lives, their unfulfilling relationships, their degenerate sexual escapades, and take into account why they don't fulfill them. If they don't have anything to compare it to, it makes it easier to just go along with it, to float along in their sea of debauchery without ever having to think about why they're empty and everything hurts. Of course I've never encouraged unlawful violence against anyone, but in the absence of any real explanation from Stripe, I can only conclude that they've now decided that certain conservative opinions amount to illegal activity.

He speculated in his daily wire coverage of the incident that perhaps he was debanked for saying in 2023 that the ideology of transgenderism has to be eradicated from public life, which triggered an outcry from major news outlets. When I say men can't be women, I'm just stating a fact of anthropology of the Christian faith," Knowles noted. While the conservative commentator believes it is quite likely he was debanked for his political opinions, he is considering that it also could have been due to his religious opinions.

There's been a ton of anti-Catholic persecution in recent years. The Biden administration sending jackbooted thugs to spy on churches, calling Catholics extremists and radicals, he said in reference to the FBI's target of the so-called radical traditionalist Catholics. Radical traditionalists, that's right. It's hard, you're a radical if you want to adhere to tradition. You're a radical if you say that mutilating yourself

doesn't equate to an immutable characteristic. There is nothing more radical than the gospel. It is antithetical to everything that the world is. So to truly believe the gospel is to always be considered radical by the world. I'm going to paraphrase a GK Chesterton quote, but he says that the gospel diluted to its most mild form would be enough to boil all of the world to rags. At its mildest form, it upends everything. It changes everything. You can no longer continue with the way things were at its mildest. There's been a ton of anti-catholic persecution in recent years.

Knowles warned at the end of this thread, if they can put a hold on my money for no reason, they can do it to anyone. And it gets even easier if they go to a CBDC or a stablecoin. It's just a flip of a switch. It's gone. It evaporates. It's not simply a hold. It's vanished. This should appear, and of course you won't have cash to fall back on. That's what they don't want. In our current society, theoretically, you could keep all of your money stored in cash, or at least a large enough portion, that'll give you time to figure something out. CBDC, it's all gone, all at once.

Can't store stablecoin in your mattress. This would appear to be a very unjust act that could involve potentially millions and millions of Americans. If you're conservative, if you're a Christian, you are at risk of being debanked by the largest payment processor by a number of merchants in the entire country. If you espouse beliefs that 10 to 15 years ago would have been seen as totally common sense, as simply just the way things were,

you're at risk of being thrown out of the system, being unpersenned. After Knowles finally revealed the ordeal of his debanking to the public on X, Stripe Support responded to his threat on Monday evening, by way of follow up, we can confirm that the restrictions placed on your account were not taken unilaterally by Stripe, but were the result of a legally binding order that was issued to us. Issued to us by whom? From the government?

This is like the no fly lists. You get put on it but they don't tell you. they don't explain how or why and then you're just locked down. you can't go. you can't fly and they won't explain why. so somebody can be the subject of a legally binding order to restrict their finances and they're not obliged to be told. that's pretty dystopian ex-user Reggie Stratton commented. Yeah, just a little dystopian. We're gonna make it impossible for you to do business. We won't tell you why. We don't tell you what caused it. We won't tell you how to get off the list. Stripe is the largest privately owned financial tech company with over 1.4

trillion in payment volume processed in 2024 alone. Its board members include Mark Carney, the prime minister of Canada, and former governor of the Bank of England and Bank of Canada. Other board members have previously held or currently hold high ranking positions at other major companies such as Microsoft and Amazon. Our tech oligarchs. Our royalty. Mark Carney. Canada is horrifying. It's truly a joke, not a funny one. It's just... Canada's always about 10 to 15 years of the United States when it comes to insanity.

What happens there will eventually happen here. They just have to prep the American people for it a bit more. Mav2022, Stripe and PayPal routinely debank people and have been at least for a decade. Yeah, it's happened to us. Happened to my dad. PayPal account got terminated. It's happened to a friend of mine. His PayPal account was nuked from orbit. He was not told why.

And of course, when you say something the government doesn't like and they come after your accounts for it, the refrain is always, well, they're a private company, they can do whatever they want, but this is different in that they're claiming that it was a government order to shut it down based on his free speech, which arguably all these are a violation of the First Amendment, but this would be a very clear violation of the First Amendment. Yeah. Library fires pastor for refusing to use trans gender pronouns. This is from LifeSite. Again, if you won't bow, if you won't scrape, if you won't do as you're told, I'm gonna fire you. I'm gonna unperson you. No, you can't hold that belief. If you do,

we'll punish you. Louisiana pastor has been fired from his second job as a library technician for refusing to refer to a female colleague by male pronouns, so for refusing to submit to a lie. Luke Ash, the bivocational pastor of Stephendale Baptist Church, took a job with the East Baton Rouge Parish Library three months ago. On July 7th, he says a co-worker responsible for training a gender-confused new employee employee whom Ash never directly interacted with attempted to get him to refer to her as he. The next day, he was reprimanded for not upholding the library's inclusivity policy,

refusing to use preferred pronouns and fired on July 10th. It wasn't even the person them themselves who complained. It was the person in charge... mics open... person in charge of the training. You're not following my propaganda. You're not submitting to my brainwashing. How dare you? Of course. course these types of policies are going to move and spiral outward. it's not just going to be government institutions like libraries. it's going to be your company's HR rep that's going to have seminars on how to interact with these people. you must validate their pronouns. You must

use their preferred pronouns. It's going... the HR ladies will be the arbiters of your fate. They're going to be the ones who will be in charge of your destiny. And it sounds like this guy was fired from a government job because he didn't comply with compelled speech You will Yeah, you will submit you will live this lie you will Indulge them in their fantasies. If not, we're gonna fire you the government is all in on this And this is in Louisiana, This is not some, you know, northeastern or California. This is Louisiana. These types of people worm their way into these kinds of institutions

all the time. No matter where you are, it draws them in like flies. Ash says he originally had some concerns about the library's policies, but thought he would be able to focus on his own duties but ultimately it was not a hospitable place for a Christian or someone who is politically conservative to work. Now wait till he sees what happens with drag queen story hour. Cecilia 14 says Travis we must validate their mental illnesses. Yeah we have to be their chat GPT. You have to sit there and go, yes, yes, of course, your beliefs are valid. In fact, that's an interesting way of looking at it. That's so wise. You are so special and unique. It's a good way of putting it. You see the psychosis that comes from these chat GPT programs,

you know, just validating absolutely everything anyone has to say. And that's what they want from everyone. Yeah, they demand you to be a sycophant, to sit there and nod and smile and acquiesce in every single way. Whatever they say, it's the law. Louisianians should never lose their job because they refuse to lie.

Louisiana is the real world, and in the real world, preferred pronouns don't exist. Only biological ones says governor Jeff Landry on Twitter. Louisiana isn't New York or California. State law prohibits discrimination based on religion in the workplace especially as a public employee in a taxpayer funded public library. Louisiana Christians have rights just like everyone else says says Attorney General Liz Murrell. So hopefully they're gonna take a look at what's going on in their institutions and do something about it. These people are evil. They are insane. They're

there because it gives them influence, because it gives them a place where they have access. Because it gives them influence. Because it gives them a place where they have access. Again, places like libraries and public schools draw them in like flies. They know what they're about. This isn't some like, oh, it just kind of happened. I don't know, I ended up at the library because of this or that. They ended up at the library because they know it's a good place for them to slowly bring about their ideals. It's a long march to the institutions. It's plural. Multiple. It's not enough for them to have just one. It would be bad enough if they only had one, but they've got their tentacles in everything. Marxist critical theory has infected the West. It is everywhere. It is part of diversity training in companies. People are continually posting these things like, oh we're winning there,

rolling it back. Hollywood's not as woke as it used to be, this that and the other. It's not going to stop. They may tone it down for a time, but the more realistic way of viewing it is that they're refining the propaganda. They're slowly going to find out ways to get you to accept it. Or, again, they've shifted the Overton window. They beat you over the head with it to the point you got sick of it, but they're going to move it back a little bit and you're gonna go, oh thank goodness. Oh man, that was terrible. And you're not gonna notice the fact that it's a bit worse than it was before they started.

It's not enough to simply say, oh man, it's not as woke as it used to be. That's great. It's not, they're not doing as much diversity training or critical race theory in schools and companies. It has to go to zero. Like the fiat dollar, it has to collapse. We're gonna take a quick break. When we come back, we're gonna look at some more just interesting sort of pop-cultury

news. We're gonna look at the Superman movie. I still haven't seen it But we can get Lance's opinion on this article. So stay with us before we go John Bazzalone says wow Travis My wife of 38 years is Canadian I've been shouting out that Canada is 15 years ahead of the US and new world order directives Canada is NWO beta test society for North America Yeah, when you look at things you see, you kind of notice that. If you look at where goes Canada, eventually there goes the US. For some

reason the Canadians seem to be a bit more accepting of it. I don't know why that is. A lot of Canadians and Americans share the same sort of heritage stock where they came from. Maybe it's that, you know, the American Revolution instilled some more grit or resistance to these type of things in the people who live here versus the Canadians. I can't say, but where goes Canada? Eventually there goes the United States. So if you look at Canada and think it's crazy there just wait it's coming down the pipeline So stay with us folks and we will be right back The The The Making sense, common again. You're listening to the David Knight Show.

Excellencies, ladies and gentlemen, dear Klaus, your annual global risk report makes for a stunning and sobering read. For the global business community, the top concern for the next two years is not conflict or climate, it is disinformation and misinformation, followed closely by polarization within our societies. In a world of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. You are listening to the David Knight Show. Welcome back folks, you only got about nine and a half minutes left. This brief amount of time, I think it's a good, a good jumping off point to look at

something slightly less serious. We've got a comment from Cecilia 14. Travis probably purposefully to go after conservative areas. Baton Rouge like with bake shops for gay wedding cakes. Yeah, they specifically targeted that bake shop. They knew of their convictions. There were plenty of other bakeries that didn't have any qualms about baking them a wedding cake for their gay wedding But they went there because they wanted to force them to submit you got a bow to our ideology You're going to do what we say. We're gonna bring the government in we're gonna bring the boot down And that's what they're working towards That's why it's so prevalent in schools if they can get the next generation to fully buy in

It makes it far far easier to implement it. There won't be as much resistance. New Superman movie is a woke joke. That's the headline from World Net Daily by Don Fader. The, uh, from what I've heard, it's not actually though. My family went to see it and they really enjoyed it. They said it was a lot of fun. My dad says that it's not woke. It's very pro-family and also doesn't have any LGBT nonsense in it. Yeah, I don't think it really was woke. People are looking into the different countries and overlaying their own political views on it.

And it's really, to me it feels like they're reaching. Yeah. One thing you can say is that the director, because of course James Gunn is in Hollywood, he's anti-Trump and he's pro-immigration. So there is that. The people involved in it are incredibly left-wing, of course. That's to be expected. I told an interview for the Sunday Times, Superman is a story of America, an immigrant. I come sick from other places. He says that come, and they put sick because he misspoke. It's from other places and populated the country But for me, it's mostly a story that says basic human kindness is a value and it's something we have lost

I do agree with him basic human kindness is a value. It is something that the world has lost people are Angrier and more hateful towards each other. I mean, you can look at history and say, well, the past was more violent. People used to die more frequently. There was more random death. But I'm not sure you had this constant vitriol back and forth. This sense that anyone who doesn't immediately agree with everything

I say is the enemy immediately. If you don't absorb my beliefs, you are evil. But what is wrong with the idea that we've lost basic human kindness. And again, the director is putting this out there. He's the one that's saying this. It doesn't necessarily translate into the film, though. It's more about, from what they've told me, just... you know, the love of a family. So, they... James Gunn has been making a lot of political statements surrounding this movie, but

the movie itself, I didn't see any stuff about immigration being a major issue. The people that find it to be woke are mainly looking at the villains, which is some random fictional country, and saying, oh, this is just like Israel, because they're attacking a poor nation unprovoked. Which to me that says a lot about what you see as Israel because that's correct they are attacking a poor nation unprovoked. But my rule of whether it's political or not was like if this came out in the 90s no one would have any problem with it. It would make sense. It's a logical story. It's not dragging in modern political stuff to do their own points about the directors' political views. That it's simply a evil nation attacking a poor nation. Oh, that's just like Israel and Gaza. What a strange

thing to say. Funny you would say that. Do we really need a lecture on basic human kindness from a Hollywood hack who compares the president to Hitler and was fired by Disney for posting crude sexual humor? And again, yeah, I think James Gunn is not someone I would be friends with. I don't think he's a good person, but that doesn't preclude him from making a good movie. And if what he put in there is simply about basic human kindness, I don't think that's woke. I don't think that's evil. And it's apparently not a lecture. It's not beating you over the head saying, you're evil because you're white. You're evil because

this. America bad. White men bad. That's... That to me is... The evil country, you really only see the president of it who is white or possibly Jewish looking and the good country or at least the victim country of poor people was all a whole bunch different races it's the multinational country of course so

you could you can point to that perhaps that is yeah you know something the villain Lex Loth Luthor is an egomaniacal genius and billionaire industrialist who becomes obsessed with Superman It's a wonder Gundan give him Trump hair Well, I mean if you're talking about someone being an egomaniacal billionaire He's he's pretty much front and center again. We're back to them reading into it. He's just an egomaniacal Again, we're back to them reading into it. He's just an egomaniacal billionaire. That's who Lex Luthor has always been. To be fair, you could kind of substitute any real-world billionaire.

If you took this Lex Luthor and put him in something before Trump was present, before 2016, it would be a normal Lex Luthor. But they see that, it's like, ah, it's just like Trump because they know Trump acts like Lex Luthor. There's a 10 minute scene in the movie where Clark and Lewis anesthetize the audience by discussing geopolitics revolving around whether Superman should have stopped a war. And again, WorldNet Daily is incredibly Zionist and therefore incredibly pro-war on Israel's side. The fact that they're sitting there and discussing whether Superman should have stopped it to him is in itself left-wing. Because to him, if you oppose

Israel, if you don't support their bombing of Gaza and their immediate right to flatten it and remove the entire population, you're a left-wing shill. Justice is treating individuals according to their merits not making excuses for bad behavior based on race or class. yeah I agree with that. that's fair. but uh who's excusing what's going on with Israel? I suppose he didn't say making excuses for bad behavior based on bad theology. maybe that's his out. no see I'm not making it based on race or class. I'm making it based on my own bad theology. Heroes are meant to inspire. They should reflect eternal values. That's right. Like

peace and family. This is normal Superman. The only thing that they're doing is taking modern values and reading into it. They are taking these eternal values and trying to add modern politics to it. Yes, they're the ones that are doing the thing the left normally does. Well, my goodness, we're out of time. Goes fast. Thank you all so much for joining us today.
