Starting point is 00:00:00 You know, world of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act it's the david night show as the clock strikes 13 it's thursday the 18th of september year of our lord 2025 and today we're going to tell you the truth about the revolution that they are trying to create they've already done quite a bit of a revolution but We're going to begin with Trump's trip to England and the pomp and circumstance that the circumstances surrounding it. He got away from the, because of the assassination of Charlie Kirk, he was able to get away from Epstein. But Epstein is being used to haunt him in the UK. They've even got a program that is going to be one channel is running Trump programs all day, analyzing his lies.
Starting point is 00:01:29 So we're going to begin with that. We're also going to take a look at some tech issues, some war issues. We'll be right back. Yes, we have Britain is, well, Travis, tell us a little bit about, give us the headlines here before we get started. That's right. It's good to be the king, and Britain indulges King Trump fantasy with historic ceremony. That's from DeNus, and how the British flag became a flashpoint in a new culture war from the Wall Street Journal. Tommy Robinson, unite the kingdom protest, proved the establishment has lost its power to silence the majority from the expose. When Trump's Epstein scandal, back in the news, stream with historic trip to London this week, vaccine impact. Four arrested after images of Trump and Epstein projected onto Windsor Castle, that's from RT.
Starting point is 00:02:46 What an industrious group of four that must have been. You're the freaking FBI, Democrat slams Patel, over why FBI doesn't have Epstein docs. Yeah, so all of this has been shoved off the front page, but it is front and center in the U.K. And as they're pointing out, he got the kind of ceremonial extravagance that Britain has not seen since the funeral of Elizabeth II. And the people in the UK are not very happy about it, as a matter of fact. Trump demanded spectacle, and Britain provides it. He wants to be the king for a day. and Britain is letting him.
Starting point is 00:03:28 The U.K. will silence dissent, empty out its traditions, and rent out its monarch like a sex worker. Deployed to flatter the ego of a man who has spent his political life suggesting that he should be treated like one. A monarch, that is not a sex worker. To be fair, I think that's about the level of respect. Charles probably deserves. Yeah, that's right. I think we got some video of it, Lance. If you want to play the royal procession, you can see some of the treatment that they got for him.
Starting point is 00:03:58 There you go. Look at that long line of Grandadier Guardsman. And that is, because we've animated some of these films. Actually, this is AI, but there's a real picture of that. And they're having a big time, the two of them. I wonder, it's almost reminiscent of that picture with Jeffrey Epstein that Donald Trump had. I wonder what they were talking about. But they're having a big time.
Starting point is 00:04:23 Yeah, we got them to laugh and the courage, thanks to AI on those particular things. And then we got another one here. I think he's going to come back with a bruised hand. Let's show the handshake that he's got here. You know, Trump likes to do handshakes with people and show that he's stronger than they are. Looks like he's going to grind their guard here. That's just AI, though. We'll let you know if it's AI.
Starting point is 00:04:49 We're not going to show. stuff and tell you that it's true. But, yeah, he may come back with a big bruise on his hand from that handshake. It's a macron style, right? Leading to more speculation. As the stage props go, the monarchy is unbeatable, but if this is what the special relationship between the U.S. and the UK now means, it looks to many in Britain less like a partnership, more like a groveling feudal servitude.
Starting point is 00:05:15 Nothing about the welcome was subtle from the moment Marine One touched down the grounds of Windsor Castle. Trump said Trump and Melania were greeted not with a minister or courtier, but by the Prince and Princess of Wales, William and Kate, who walked them up to Charles and Camilla as a 41-gun salute thundered across Windsor. Simultaneously, a second salute shook the air from the Tower of London. The choreography spoke volumes. Every cannon, every plume, every flashing braid, every polished boot, time to inflate and flatter Trump. Trump's sense of himself. Then came the pageantry proper, a carriage procession through Windsor's Great Parks Long
Starting point is 00:05:58 Avenues. Trump and Melania, esconsed with King Charles and Queen Camilla, dutifully present, despite having sinusitis. William and Kate followed in another coach with the U.S. ambassador. It was a grotesque parody of a coronation parade. Yeah, like I said, it's the kind of. of pomp and circumstance that they typically only have during a coronation or a funeral. I wonder which we're talking about here.
Starting point is 00:06:30 The thing is, if they would just leave us alone, I would let them have all this. You know, if they could be trusted, you know, okay, you can have your little parades, you can have your play dates and your time with the king, just leave us alone. You can spend millions upon millions of dollars on it. That's right. Just keep out of our lives. And that's one of the things that they have done with the monarchy in the UK. You know, it's like they're there as a figureheads and I think so everybody gets upset with the,
Starting point is 00:06:54 and rightfully so, with the heads of parliament and the political parties. But here we combine it all into Trump. Banks, including the powers of Congress, because they've just become a rubber stamp under Speaker Johnson, ranks of soldiers in scarlet and gold, plumbed helmets catching the rain, polished breastplates, gleaming in the gray light, the clang of armor, the rhythmic clip of 120 horses, the rolling of drums, the blast of brass bands, the Star-Spangled banner ringing off of Windsor's medieval stone. Well, that wasn't the only thing that was on Windsor's medieval stone. We'll show you that in a moment. A royal ceremony in theater.
Starting point is 00:07:36 But this was theater that revealed far more than a sovereign nation should about its craven need to please a foreign leader who's done absolutely nothing to help the sovereign sovereign nation in question and has done plenty to harm it. Well, the household cavalry mounted regiment provided what was formally described as a sovereign's escort, but the sovereign, it seemed, was not Charles. At the castle's quadrangle, the massive guard of honor was another extraordinary attempt by Desperate Britain to run Trump's favor. They had the Grenadier guards, the Coldstream guards, the Scots guards all prated their colors. For the first time, on such an occasion.
Starting point is 00:08:18 To pretend this was normal diplomacy is ludicrous. It was carefully chosen excess intended to impress one man. Meanwhile, what is happening in the country itself? You have, as we showed the other day, we had the London protests where they had crowds that were far bigger than the mainstream media would admit. As a matter of fact, they would only say that it was 110,000. and the Guardian had the lowest, I said, tens of thousands. Yeah, you bet, to start with, the people who are there organizing, Tommy Robinson said he thought it was one to two million there on the ground.
Starting point is 00:08:59 That looks a lot more like a million than it does. Yeah, he said, and you could see that there were a million people that were watching it, more than a million people who were watching it live on social media as well. And so I guess the question is, you know, what should we do about all of this stuff? and I've got too many clips here to see this stuff. Here we go. Your Majesty, I must have a word with you. The count of money. Count the money.
Starting point is 00:09:26 Don't correct me. What is it? Of course, Your Majesty. I've come on the most urgent of business. It is said that the people are revolting. You said it. They stink on ice. No, Your Majesty, this is a very serious problem.
Starting point is 00:09:40 The peasants feel you have no regard for them. What? I have no regard. regard for the peasants they are my people i am their sovereign i love them oh drifting to the left it's good to be the king or the prime minister if it's uh whoever is ruling him and uh so just as an example uh how much the rulers in london hate their own people Stewartfield raised its first flags in July. The English Red Cross of St. George, also smattering of the British red, white, and blue,
Starting point is 00:10:23 hanging them from the hometown's streetlights. His daughter had just been sent home from her high school's annual cultural celebration day for wearing a sparkly dress designed around the Union Jack, and he was infuriated. A flyer from the school had described the event as a way to recognize the diverse cultures among students. Wear your traditional cultural dress to school. Instead of your usual school uniform, it said,
Starting point is 00:10:53 your attire must reflect your nationality or your family heritage. That is, as long as your family heritage is not British and your nationality is not represented by the flag, anything but that. And so, you know, when these people talk about diversity, that's just it. They don't want diversity. they despise their own people.
Starting point is 00:11:16 What they mean by that is less white people as a general rule. Yeah. Tommy Robinson, as I said before, in terms of the people that were there, he disputed the estimates from the mainstream media. He said we had millions of Brits, millions on the street. We had two million people watching live on X, and we had millions that attended live. Everyone there, anyone watching the videos, can see it wasn't 110,000.
Starting point is 00:11:45 So they were just exposed themselves time and time again as liars. He said, this is the biggest protest in British history ever. For 20 years, the establishment instilled fear into the population and had them whispering about the replacement of the British people and culture. Using mass immigration, he said. But the massive turnout on Saturday proved that the power that they had over the population was gone. We're not being replaced, and were not seen. staying silent anymore. You're not having uncontrolled mass immigration endangering our daughters,
Starting point is 00:12:19 endangering our wives, whilst then beating us down with your racist labels, your fascist labels, or your Islamophobic labels. It doesn't wash anymore, said Robinson. Every move they make has just backfired. It's literally like a fire is burning and they just keep pouring gasoline on it. Even their response to Saturday, they're just blowing the fire up even more. They're giving us more supporters. Every move they make, I just sit there and think there's nothing they can actually do here. So again, it's heading down a path of confrontation, just like we are. Isn't it interesting that just like the pandemic, the fake pandemic that they engineered, that they're very busy engineering a revolution in civil war in every country as well. It doesn't matter what political
Starting point is 00:13:10 party. You've got labor, rabid socialist and Marxist in the U.K. who are engineering it there, and you've got conservatives who are engineering it along with the left here in this country. They all want to push us into a civil war at this juncture. And it's the same in every single country. As a matter of fact, Lance, you showed me clips of how the Japanese had taken to the street because of the great replacement there. They're bringing in massive amount of people from Africa and to Japan. You talk about a culture clash. That is, you know, the Japanese have been very xenophobic,
Starting point is 00:13:50 even to the extent that they are so homogenous. Everybody looks alike. Everybody is to act alike. There's a lot of pressure with all that. So into that mix, you bring in people that have, that are as polar opposite from it and culture and appearance, everything as you can to try to mix things up and to get people angry, and they're getting them angry in Japan, aren't they?
Starting point is 00:14:14 Yeah. I believe they had just voted to import 500,000 Indians or something like that or a workforce. And again, you want to talk about cultural polar opposites. The Japanese are a hyper-conscientious, hyper-cleanly society. India is not, to put it mildly. And it's just the clash that would happen. Yes. Well, Trump wanted to get away from Epstein, and he's been able to do that with the assassination of Charlie Kirk and his attacks on free speech.
Starting point is 00:14:47 But it is there to haunt him when he gets to the U.K. And he had some people who were projecting onto, it's kind of funny. Here in the U.S., Maga projects Trump onto Trump, and there, in the U.K., they projected Trump and Epstein onto Windsor Castle. So there's what it looked like actually live pictures that they projected them. And we've all seen these videos before. But it was kind of interesting to see it projected up there while Trump is in town. Should have projected on the Tower of London. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:21 The arrest of four men after these images of Trump alongside Epstein were projected under Windsor Castle on Tuesday was, as one person said, Orwellian and ridiculous. us. The political campaign was led by a group called led by donkeys. We've been led by donkeys as well. Democrats, I guess we should guess the implication here is that they are asses, but that probably would have been a better, a better title anyway. Confirmed that it was behind the stunt, which saw several images of Trump and Epstein projected onto a tower, while a soundtrack questioning the relationship between the two men was played on. a speaker. The police said in a statement that four adults were arrested on suspicion, listen to this,
Starting point is 00:16:09 of malicious communication. So we finally have an arrest related to Epstein? Yeah, that's right. Finally, good point, Lance. And it was malicious communication of his relationship. I think that means we're not allowed to go to the UK anymore. Yeah, malicious communications. And unauthorized projection at Windsor Castle.
Starting point is 00:16:30 and Oh, you've got a license for that projector The organization came back and said It was the first time anyone from the group had been arrested We've done, I reckon, 25 or 30 projections Since we've been going Often the police come along And we have to chat to them
Starting point is 00:16:49 But they even have a laugh with us And occasionally tell us not to do it, they said But no one has ever been arrested before So it's ridiculous that four of our guys have been arrested for malicious communications, forgive the cliche, but it is rather Orwellian for a piece of journalism, which raises questions about our guest relationship with America's most notorious child sex trafficker to lead to arrests. As a matter of fact, there's a new documentary coming out about Orwell called 2 plus 2 equals 5.
Starting point is 00:17:24 in a time of deceit telling the truth as a revolutionary act or well when I sit down to write a book I write it because there is some lie that I want to expose again how many fingers my starting point
Starting point is 00:17:46 is always a feeling of injustice I feel the same way about the broadcast The very concept of objective truth is fading out of this world. I'm going to set down what I dare not say aloud to anyone. This prospect frightens me much more than bombs. Freedom is slavery. War is peace.
Starting point is 00:18:13 Ignorance is strength. Totalitarianism, if not fought against, could triumph anywhere. Do you begin to see them? What kind of world we are creating. Yeah, I would say that I come to the same starting point. Not writing a book, but when we do the broadcast, it's because there's some lie that I want to expose. It looks like it'll be an interesting documentary.
Starting point is 00:18:58 I do think most likely from just a couple little things there. There's probably going to be a left wing. Oh, it is. Yeah, definitely. Based on the fact they had the black lady with the I can't breathe over her mouth. Yeah. So I'm sure it will have some good points in it, but I would also imagine this is going to end up a bit far on the left.
Starting point is 00:19:18 Yes. A lot of, most documentary filmmakers tend to be left wing to start with. So while I'd be interested in watching it, I wouldn't put, you know, it's not going to be my favorite movie. I guarantee you that I'm sure he'll make some good points, but there's also probably going to be some points where I'm just rolling my eyes like, okay, buddy, okay. You're right. That was, even with that there, I didn't cut that out, but there were some parts of that that were even more left wing, obviously. And we're constantly told, you know, that we need to see peaceful protests, said the guy with led by donkeys. Well, here's a peaceful protest.
Starting point is 00:19:55 We projected a piece of journalism onto the wall, and now people have been arrested for malicious communications. I think that, frankly, that says a lot more about the policing of Trump's visit than it does about what we did. Yeah, these are police state tactics. That's the thing that's really done in Trump's honor, right? It isn't so much the pomp and circumstances and being king for a day, but it's the police state fist in your face.
Starting point is 00:20:22 if you talk about him or Epstein. You know, I've always wanted to see some people be headed. Maybe you could be heading for me. It'd be great. We could behead them right in the public square. Well, as Brian Schell Hobby of Vaccine Impact says, Trump has been enjoying a short reprieve on the Epstein scandal story due to the Charlie Kirk assassination,
Starting point is 00:20:41 but all that changes as he lands in London for a historic visit. The British press will undoubtedly make the Epstein scandal, the focus of his trip, as they're already doing ahead of his visit. Prince Andrew needs to be fully investigated, says the Guthrie family. This is the BBC reporting on this. The family of Virginia Guthrie has told the BBC that the Duke of York needs to be fully investigated over allegations that he sexually abused her.
Starting point is 00:21:09 Guthrie was one of the most prominent victims of disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein. She said at the age of 17, she said Epstein introduced her to Prince Andrew, who she said sexually abused her three times. Andrew, who has been approached for a comment, stepped back from the royal duties in 2019 because of the Epstein scandal, and after growing backlash from a BBC Newsnight interview about his friendship with a convicted pedophile, Roberts told the BBC, it doesn't matter if it's a royal family member or a president or a prince. Every single person deserves to be held to the fullest extent of the law, he said.
Starting point is 00:21:54 This is her relative. It's time to put every single person, whether you're a royal, Prince Andrew, you need to be fully investigated. And if it's found that you had any participation, you need to be put behind bars for the rest of your life. Yeah, it was supposedly just a punishment to remove him, the man who was formerly known as prince. several of these people now in the UK. Could there be a greater punishment than not being to indulge in the spotlight and the spectacle for these people? I mean, really, hasn't he suffered enough? I mean, sure.
Starting point is 00:22:27 He's got his massive castles and his estates and his money, but, you know, the camera hasn't been on him, so surely. Yeah, yeah, he gave him the royal treatment in a prison. We have punished him severely. Meanwhile, back here in the U.S., things are heating up as well. so far Thomas Massey is the only man in the GOP House to support his bill to force the Trump administration to release all the Epstein files. The other three Republicans, of course, are all women. Now the survivors and victims of Epstein's sexual abuse, who all met in D.C. a few weeks ago,
Starting point is 00:23:02 made the corporate media rounds. Now they are putting pressure on the remaining women in the House to support their cause. Isn't that interesting? You know, the, the GOP is so. concerned about protecting Trump that they're willing to be seen as having total animosity and disinterest to the women who were abused by Jeffrey Epstein. GOP has become guarding our pedophiles. Only the women got upset enough that they would move away from protecting Trump. A group of Jeffrey Epstein survivors is urging members of the Republican Women's caucus to stand up
Starting point is 00:23:42 against the abuse of power, to take action, to end the silence and the speculation surrounding the sex offender. The letter says, remind us that America is the country that we thought it was when we were little girls, when we were let down repeatedly by our own government. More than 20 Epstein survivors signed the letter, including several who were part of a high-profile visit to the nation's capital earlier this month, which included. public events and private meetings with lawmakers. But again, the GOP is just guarding our pedophile. We have sought justice for decades to no avail. We have been denied the basic rights that should be afforded to every American citizen time and time again. The fact that it took
Starting point is 00:24:31 this long for anyone to care about us is a true American tragedy. This is not some, he said, she said, cancel culture type of thing that really exploded. after you had some real sexual harassment that was there. This is very different. But the GOP is just trying to cover this up shamelessly. And it really is apparent to everyone what they're doing. I don't know why they think that people don't see this. I suppose it's one of those things where it's just they know what's in the Epstein file.
Starting point is 00:25:07 So if they release it, it's confirmed. Whereas any level of deniability, even when it's so obvious, is better. than none at all. I don't know. As far as I'm concerned, they're committing public suicide. I mean, and I think that if Trump told them to kill themselves, they would. Because these people love their careers more than they do life. And so it tells you that they believe that Trump is so powerful that it really doesn't
Starting point is 00:25:31 matter what the American people think. It tells you that the GOP, except for these four people, don't really care about the people who voted for them. They care about Trump. They serve one man. They do not represent you whatsoever. I think it shows it's pretty widespread because the people that are going to sacrifice their career to make sure this doesn't get out are the people that would have an even worse time, but did get out. The people that under no circumstances can allow this file to be released. Yeah, this is the better option. Imagine how bad it must be. Well, they've all got something on each other, I guess.
Starting point is 00:26:14 This is like Jagger Hoover, right? They weren't all connected to Jeffrey Epstein, but the ones who were are probably threatening the other guys to blackmail them over some other thing, whether it's financial or something else that they were involved in. Whatever happened with that page boy that used to come to your office there. The page scandals have been rampant throughout the GOP in the past. You just have to imagine the kind of skeletons that Lindsey Graham has in his closet. Maybe you shouldn't imagine the type of skeletons
Starting point is 00:26:41 Lindsay Graham has in his closet. He doesn't keep them in his closet. He creates skeletons all over the world with his wars that he pushes. Prior to this current Epstein scandal of Trump calling it a hoax and infuriating the victims, these kinds of articles were not in the corporate media because the pedo billionaires like Trump
Starting point is 00:26:59 had control of the media, but not anymore. The Guardian is talking about Marine Comey, who is the daughter of the FBI's Comey. She alleges that the firings were in retaliation against her father, James Comey, former FBI director. Maureen Comey, a federal prosecutor involved in cases against Jeffrey Epstein and his accomplice, Gawain Maxwell, and who led a recent case against Sean Diddy Combs, filed a lawsuit on Monday challenging her abrupt termination on politically motivated retaliation
Starting point is 00:27:34 against her father, former FBI director James Comey. According to the court documents the Justice Department fired Comey without cause or explanation 16th of July, citing only Article 2 of the U.S. Constitution and the laws of the United States in a brief email. When she asked for a reason, the interim U.S. attorney Jay Clayton told her, All I can say is it came from Washington. I can't tell you anything else. Just three months before her termination, the 35-year-old prosecutor had received a glowing review from the same attorney who would later deliver news of her firing. The lawsuit seeks her reinstatement, bank pay, and declaration. Their termination violated the Constitution. Her removal came after
Starting point is 00:28:18 sustained pressure campaign by Laura Lumer. Lumer posted to her 1.7 million X followers calling for the firing of James Comey's liberal daughter. But of course, she had prosecuted some of these pedophiles and been involved in that. You don't want to have any loose ends. You don't have any anybody who doesn't particularly like Trump and who has been involved in these prosecutions, you don't want them snooping around looking in the files that they claim don't exist. And so as all that was happening, you had Cash Patel yesterday going before the House Judiciary Committee and facing a lot of questions from Democrats because the GOP is
Starting point is 00:29:03 fully on board with this. you're the freaking FBI, said a Democrat to Patel, asking why the FBI doesn't have all the Epstein documents. Ted Liu asked simply whether he'd seen all of the images included in the investigation files around Jeffrey Epstein. He began by questioning the discovery of a safe when raiding the Epstein mansion. I don't have the catalog of evidence in front of me, sir, said Patel, refusing to answer. Lou said, are there photos showing Trump with girls of uncertain age? Patel said no. How do you know that?
Starting point is 00:29:41 Lou questioned. Because the information would have been brought to light by multiple administrations, said Patel. Well, that's not true, said Lou. That rhymes. Nobody knew about the creepy birthday message that Trump wrote to Epstein until the Wall Street Journal disclosed it. And then all of a sudden, the Epstein estate provides it to, Congress pointed out Lou. And again, this doesn't bode well for the lawsuit that the Trump
Starting point is 00:30:08 administration brought against Wall Street Journal and has defiantly said they're going to move forward with it. Well, I think we're going to have to have some more discovery. I mean, this is even after the actual book was released, he still claims that it was made up by the Wall Street Journal. Good luck with that. I think the Wall Street Journal should hit him with a slap lawsuit, which is the counter lawsuit when you do a frivolous charge against somebody. Yeah, that's one of the, that's where you can just say, this is ridiculous, dismiss the case. Yeah. Well, I'm sure they'll get dismissal, but I think they should then proceed to sue him back for doing that. Lou said it's possible that the Epstein estate still has evidence not obtained by the FBI,
Starting point is 00:30:51 which Patel noted was a good point. Oh, never thought of that. I never thought of it. Gee. I can just imagine what does the expression look like. It's probably. that caught in the headlight thing that you always see him. So Lou asked why Patel wouldn't go get that information, which Patel said he couldn't. And that's when he said, You are the freaking FBI. You can subpoena information from the estate.
Starting point is 00:31:13 Patel said the estate doesn't have to provide anything, even with a subpoena. He went on to ask whether Prince Andrew was named on the list of Epstein clients, and Patel refused to say. He noted only that it was publicly available information. Lou pointed out the significance of Patel refusing to answer, which is because Trump is in the U.K. right now, and the press is all over this story. That might be bad for diplomatic relations. Senator Dick Durbin released information from an FBI whistleblower in July, saying that agents were working 24 hours a day,
Starting point is 00:31:51 searching through all the documents for Trump's name to find any reference of him and then to get rid of it. So Patel has gone from being outraged at concealing Epstein files and vowing to release them to Epstein never did it. That's a comment from Brian Shulhaven. He's absolutely right. This is what Patel said. He said, there's nothing conceit. I'm sorry, this is not Patel.
Starting point is 00:32:14 This is Jesus that said this. There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed or hidden that will not be made known. What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight, what is whispered in your ear, proclaim it from the rooftops. Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the one who can destroy both soul and body and hell. So clearly there is no fear of God in them. And meanwhile, the UK is doing an around-the-clock broadcast on the lies of Donald Trump.
Starting point is 00:32:53 You know, playing them and then showing how each of them are lies. It reminds me of that meme. I had a couple of weeks ago, Travis, where you got a guy asking Donald Trump, what's your favorite lie that you've told? And Trump says, I don't lie. He goes, yeah, that's my favorite one, too. So we've got some comments here. Yes, we do.
Starting point is 00:33:12 A Syrian girl. I hope the size of the demonstration, the UK indicates that people are ready to pull down that government, but the UK government has always been populated by elites who protect other elites. Yeah. That's right. North American House, Hippo, Trump wants to be treated like a king. no visit to London is complete without stopping by the Tower of London.
Starting point is 00:33:32 Epstein Island, so I guess, got to scroll that up, the Epstein files won't be released in our lifetime, no? No, probably not. I would be surprised if the Epstein file still exist. Again, I don't understand why they would even keep them if they're so radioactive. You would think they would just destroy them and have a dummy somewhere.
Starting point is 00:33:53 Steve Evs. Steveves. Do we get Tony Arterbury? today. We do. Yes, we do. We're very excited to have him on. Yeah, we're going to be talking about what's happening with gold. A lot is happening with gold. Truly is amazing. Speaking of gold, it's guard goldsmith. Gee, if only Jimmy Saville had been there to meet Trump, the royal experience for him would have been complete. That's right. They're the premier pedophile of the United Kingdom. Jimmy Saville is no longer with us. Yeah, that's amazing. Yeah, he is now
Starting point is 00:34:22 I'm facing the consequences of that. He's facing... And, of course, very connected to the royal family. I mean, they would have given him the royal treatment as well. He would have been there. If he was still alive, he would have been there, most likely. Original Babe, L.O.L. That was a great idea of projecting it on the building.
Starting point is 00:34:43 Yeah. Right there, the building where he is, they protect all that stuff up there. His Solo Cat, 1980, malicious communication, L.O.L. I think they're the one. projecting. Nibiru, 2029, arrested for hate projection.
Starting point is 00:34:59 Assault with a deadly projector. Guard, Goldsmith. Why wasn't Zelensky invited? He must have been upset. Well, you know, I'm sure he had some military cosplay to do somewhere. He didn't have enough formal wear,
Starting point is 00:35:12 you know, and he listened to all those David Knight T-shirts. Exactly. He's only got his, as Gerald Salente calls it, his military drag. They had that big, fancy pageant and he didn't have the costume for it. Oh, it's a fancy dress bowl. I cannot go.
Starting point is 00:35:29 Paddywax. Women with a Me Too message or frightening. Epstein survivors or whatever. A person could say anything and it doesn't make it true. And that is true. I believe there's enough evidence to say that with this, that Trump is involved in this, and there's enough evidence surrounding Epstein to say
Starting point is 00:35:47 that he was definitely trafficking women. I mean, that's what Galane Maxwell was arrested for. Yeah, the absurdity. of all this is that supposedly all the women were raped only by Jeffrey Epstein. We're not to worry about that because he's dead now, right? And the manic, you look at, again, the real thing to look at is how much, how many political hits Trump and the GOP are willing to take to cover this stuff up? They could easily just release everything, but they don't want to do that. And again, just as we talked about mentioned again, the fact they had people at the FBI working 24
Starting point is 00:36:22 hours a day trying to find Trump and remove any reference to Trump out of the document. So if they do release them, they will be sanitized and redacted. That's right. But I do understand where you're coming from. The Me Too movement caused many, many issues and has led to a rash of false accusations, which is, you know, it's ruined lives. Yes. And I think they'll probably have some people interjected.
Starting point is 00:36:52 into this to create confusion and throw questions onto the real victims it would make sense for them to have fake victims with fake accusations mixed in amongst them so it's a complicated issue
Starting point is 00:37:10 but we clearly can see that there is a large pedophile group and we can't ignore that just because of you know the possibility of that we We can't ignore that possibility either. Yeah, that's right.
Starting point is 00:37:27 Yeah, this didn't just begin with Harvey Weinstein. This actually began with Clarence Thomas. That was their tactic. And I remember the big thing back and forth, I believe Anita. You know, I had coffee cups printed up. I believe Anita and all the rest of this. And that's one of the reasons why they got so upset with Biden because it didn't really matter to Biden, even if that had been true.
Starting point is 00:37:47 What mattered to him, the big offense that Biden took with Clarence Thomas was that Clarence Thomas believed in natural God-given rights. And as we see, the Democrats don't. And they publicly rail against the idea of the fact that our rights come from God, that they are human rights, because we're in the image of God. They hate that. We just had Tim Kane, Hillary Clinton's running mate, come out and say that and take a lot of hits for saying that. But they genuinely believe it. And it is a core belief of them that you have no rights. You only have a government-granted privileges that they can remove at any time for any reason. And that's why I say Trump shows his Democrat roots all the time.
Starting point is 00:38:34 Tunnel Lord, 1337, it might not be that they are afraid of Trump. I think it shows that they are all connected in some way. They're all connected by a little island in the Caribbean. Yeah, it's not even six degrees of separation. It's just a couple of degrees of separation there. It's not like the Kevin Bacon thing. Yeah, this kind of thing is apparently a lot more common than we want to believe. Look at, they've got people in different areas, too.
Starting point is 00:39:01 You've got people like, you know, Sean Diddy Combs in the music industry and the entertainment industry. And you've got people like Epstein when it comes to politics. So apparently this sort of thing goes on all over the place. Shield your eyes. Tell Joe Biden to release the file. He didn't say nothing when he was in, derp. That's right. That's what you always hear from people when they say.
Starting point is 00:39:21 say, well, why are you attacking Trump? You didn't ask for Joe Biden. Because Trump ran on the platform that he was going to release this information. And that's something that mattered a great deal to his base. It didn't matter to Biden's base. Biden had, Biden wanted to come after Trump, but he wanted to come after Trump with things that were nonsense. And that was to inoculate Trump against real crimes that he committed. That's what I say. If you want to try to impeach Trump now for the things that he's doing to attack the first saying he wants to do for the First Amendment
Starting point is 00:39:54 putting troops in cities and all the rest of this stuff. Oh no, we're not going to let's not play that game anymore. You're a Democrat if you want to impeach Trump anymore because the Republicans would never stand for the Constitution. They absolutely, especially not against
Starting point is 00:40:10 Trump. Audi M-R-R. Good to see you, Audi. The only thing on Pam Bondi's desk is a pile of nothing burgers. Delicious, delicious. What'd you say, Lance? I was just going to talk about that comment from Tunnel Lord, or rather from Shield Your Eyes, that it is kind of, I won't say annoying, but just a little, okay, funny that these Democrats are,
Starting point is 00:40:40 you know, so eager to gleefully talk about this. Like, Moskowitz has, you know, actually pretty funny things to say about. about it. He said basically the same things I was saying. He put it in a pretty good way, like, okay, so you've got this thing that he's an FBI informant, and then the guy says, oh, I misspoke. Oh, what? So is he an agent or what? It's funny. He can point at all these things and rub it in, but then let's not forget that they were completely silent when they were in a position where they could have had a little bit more impact on it when they had someone from their own party in charge. That's right. They don't really want this stuff released. They want to use it as a
Starting point is 00:41:21 club against Trump. They know that he won't release it. And, you know, for whatever reason, okay, he and the Republicans have decided they're going to guard the pedophiles. So, let's really beat them with this whole idea. They're free to bludgeon it because it's, as I keep saying, I'm pretty sure it's so radioactive that it just cannot see the light of day. They cannot allow it to come out. So everyone else is free to come out and, as you said, bludgeon him with it, beam over the head with it. B. L. Houghton, why won't Trump invite the Epstein victims of the White House as they requested?
Starting point is 00:41:57 Yeah. Interesting question. Interesting. The real... Well, he never liked half your spectra taken with them. When they were victims, he didn't want to think. Bad for business. Yeah. You could show up his nice new ballroom.
Starting point is 00:42:09 That's right. The real octo spook. Epstein game, America, and Americans is the greatest gift ever, exposing the worst of the worst to broad daylight. Yeah. Paddywax says all you have to do to ruin particularly a male's life is to make an accusation. That terrifies me on behalf of males.
Starting point is 00:42:26 Yeah, we've seen that where all it takes is a single accusation. There doesn't have to be any evidence. In fact, the evidence can be pointing the other way, but, you know, people will run with it because if you don't, if you don't immediately take up sides that you're condoning rape and that sort of thing. Yes. So you do have to be very careful. You know, that's one of the things, I remember having a conversation with Alex about Pence.
Starting point is 00:42:51 He said, that guy is so uptight. He won't even get in an elevator with a woman unless there's somebody else in there. And I said, well, I think, you know, I know why he's doing that. And there was, I'm not sure of his name now, but he's one of these people with the right, the moral majority and things like that. And he was running for a political office after having done that. And he would meet a. alone in his office with a woman that was there with the door closed and there were allegations, not even, she wasn't alleging that he had done anything, I think, but people were saying
Starting point is 00:43:28 that maybe they thought something was going on behind the closed door and it taint his presidential campaign and damaged the organization. And so a lot of people have taken the attack that they, men have taken the tactic, they're not going to be alone with a woman in a particular room. That's probably, especially in today's environment, that's probably a wise policy from a number of issues. But to protect yourself against wild accusations as well. It's not just that you're afraid of women or something. You can't control yourself. But to protect yourself against rumor mills are against false accusations. Yeah. We've got Epstein Island if the files were released, Trump would
Starting point is 00:44:13 be immediately removed from the White House. Defy a tyrant 1776. Sad thing is that if they release the Epstein files and Trump was number one on the list, his supporters would vote for him again. They would. They would. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:24 A matter of fact, yeah, I mean, he was his, he was Epstein's number one friend for 15 years. And he was likely the guy who turned him in. That's what all this stuff about him being an FBI informant was. And that's why Moskowitz said, oh, okay. So he informed on Jeffrey Epstein, turned the guy in. hold right at the time that the two of them were having a fight over property and then now he calls it
Starting point is 00:44:50 a hoax so he was an informant on a hoax i actually still have that on the board we played the one about him talking about the birthday book i don't think we played the one where he was talking about go ahead and play that yeah yeah give me just a second i'll have to find it all right until then wally walris the blackmail list will never be completely released they need to keep blackmailing Got to maintain your leverage. Got to maintain your leverage. Soxov-Oxaz. Biden couldn't come after Trump with Epstein because he would be incriminating himself and friends.
Starting point is 00:45:23 Yeah, friends most likely. I don't know if he knew. I mean, it's not to say that Biden wouldn't be capable of doing that or something similar to that. But he has some different crimes, I think. I think he focused more on money corruption. And it was Hunter Biden would definitely have been there on day zero. But I don't think Hunter knew Jeff. Epstein. Yeah. He was a crackhead, crack fiend. But, you know, that's another example of why,
Starting point is 00:45:50 you know, the blackmail files and they're all out there. They could blackmail Biden over something else if he exposed some of these other people who had been around there. But so that's the issue. You know, it's not just the loyalty to Trump, I think. Here's the video. Gentlemen's recognized. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. You know, just following up on on a little bit of what the ranking member was discussing, there was a significant event this week in which this committee has jurisdiction over. The Speaker of the House, the third highest ranking
Starting point is 00:46:29 U.S. official, third in line to be the president, looked into the TV cameras and told us that the current president of the United States was an FBI informant. I consider that to be gigantic news, and I'm just curious, have we reached out to the FBI, to Cash Patel, to confirm whether the president was at any time an FBI informant? I only say that because the Speaker of the House obviously gets significant briefings. He gets briefings that we do not get as regular members.
Starting point is 00:47:03 And so I think this is something that we need to hear definitively. Before Cash Patel comes, we should clear up, maybe that we should send a letter to him to find out if the president was an informant. And if he was an informant, is that because he was working with the FBI after he was hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein? Did he turn because he got caught with Jeffrey Epstein? You know, when you're an FBI informant, there are lots of questions about how you became an FBI informant.
Starting point is 00:47:33 And then how long was he an FBI informant? When did his service to the FBI stop, you know, being a member of the deep state? When did he stop doing it? Stop doing that. I mean, look, if a regular member had said this, I would discount it. But the speaker of the house is the one who said it. And then he said afterwards, well, I may have misspoke. What was his misspeak? Instead of informant, did he mean agent? I mean, what is the misspeak for informant? I mean, I don't know another word that we use when we're describing an FBI agent or FBI informant or undercover. I mean, what was the misspeak here? And if he was lying then, is he lying now? I'm just confused. Perhaps maybe the speaker should come to our committee and tell us what he meant when he said that. It's just, it's an order.
Starting point is 00:48:27 I'm still speaking. Mr. Chairman? I'm still speaking. Is there a bill or an amendment on the floor? Strike the last word. I'm allowed to finish. Gentlemen, gentlemen from Florida has the time. He's speaking, I think he's speaking about the bill.
Starting point is 00:48:40 Well, he's not really speaking about the bill, but he's recognized to speak about. the bill. Well, he's just been interrupted for about 30 seconds. I asked that he added back on to his room. We moved to restore his time. That was a completely improper interjection. We'll be plenty of time. I'm usually good about that. Well, thank you, Mr. Chairman. I appreciate your indulgence. And I'm only bringing it up again, because this committee is the Committee of Jurisdiction over the FBI. And I don't think in the history of this country, we've had a Speaker of the House, say the President was an FBI informant. I mean, that is, I mean, that's a dual role if I ever heard one.
Starting point is 00:49:17 And so I just think we have, we have questions, Mr. Chairman. And on a bipartisan basis, maybe the answer is no. He wasn't an FBI informant, and that's fine if the answer is no. I just think we need to hear from the FBI. The speaker has confused the American people whether Trump was working with the FBI against Jeffrey Epstein because he had information about Jeffrey Epstein because he was there for a long period of time. and then got turned maybe by the FBI? I mean, did Trump ever go undercover?
Starting point is 00:49:47 I mean, these are questions that the speaker has raised. By the way, president going undercover would be interesting, you know. But these are questions that he's raised. That is not a misspeak. There is not another adjective or verb for FBI informant. Right? I understand the president kicked him out of his club. That doesn't make you an FBI informant. formant. So I think we need to get to the bottom of that.
Starting point is 00:50:16 Will the gentleman yield? I will. Yeah, yeah. That was, um, he really hung that around their neck. But, uh, yeah, he was an informant because he was on the inside, because he partied with him for 15 years and knew everything the guy was doing and did it with him as well. So, yeah, they just need to get rid of all the rules of decorum and let these people shout and scream at each other. It's about time. Yeah. There's no. He's got 30 more... Oh, be quiet.
Starting point is 00:50:44 Let them all just scream at each other over top of each other. A person with the loudest voice wins. We'll decide it that way. It'll be as good as anything else we're going to get. That's kind of the way they do it in the UK Parliament. They don't really follow... At least it'd be more entertaining.
Starting point is 00:50:56 Yeah. Yeah, they don't really follow parliamentary rules. They'll just yell and scream at each other. We should... Only loosely following them. You should allow bullying on the House floor. Wally Walry, Walrus, the blackmail list that we already read that.
Starting point is 00:51:10 Christian Constitial. Why can't these women who call themselves survives the Epstein Island name the names? I never get an answer on that. Conthink replies to him and says because they will be charged with slander. Yeah, I think it's one of the reasons why Marjorie Taylor Green said you put that list together. The lawyers said we know the names, right? Why don't the lawyers release it? Well, because the court has forbidden them from doing that.
Starting point is 00:51:33 The court is keeping it under seal as well, even though the trial is over and the rest of the stuff. So Marjorie Taylor Green said, you give me that list. and I'll read it on the House floor. Now, you're right. We haven't heard anything about that, so I don't know what's going on with that. But she can read it on the House floor, and they can't do anything to her
Starting point is 00:51:50 in terms of slander or anything else like that or false accusations, and the judge can't come after her for releasing these records. Khan Think, thank you very much, says the American justice system only works for those that can afford to pay for it. It's very, very much paid a place.
Starting point is 00:52:11 system. And it works to hide information as well from the public. So Oxal Voxa Those women said they were going to come out with their own list and then I heard nothing about it since probably being threatened and paid off. We'll have to wait and see. That is something that makes me wonder.
Starting point is 00:52:27 Sometimes these things work slowly but yeah, you would think that we would have that. They might be waiting for the assassination of Charlie Kirk to die down a little bit because it's going to be swamped by that. They know that. That's taking over the entire news cycle. It's really hard to find anything that isn't about the assassination or the reactions
Starting point is 00:52:47 to the assassination about Charlie Kirk. I think what is important about all this is not that. Certainly it's horrific, but the most important thing about it is how it's going to be used against all of us to shut down the First Amendment. And this whole idea that we are not going to try to have a rule of law or the Constitution, we're going to just throw that out so that we can get vengeance. That is an incredibly dangerous idea. It's also a complicated issue. The only time that I've heard of someone coming forward with naming a name of a abuser, one of the Epstein victims came forward and said that she was abused by Dershowitz. And then Dershowitz sued her for defamation or some other things, I'm not sure.
Starting point is 00:53:41 Maybe it was definition. And, yeah, then she recanted it, said it might have been someone that just looked like Dershowitz, who was also a friend of Jeffrey Epstein and also is... Could have been with the album, right? The two of them are doppelgangers, I think. It's a phenotype that's out there. Stealth Patriot, Biden isn't an upscale enough pedo to be hanging with Jeffrey Epstein who have to up his game and well.
Starting point is 00:54:06 And Jeffrey Upsom, we'll look at his crackhead son and be like, get out of here. Yeah, yeah, he didn't have enough money at that time for Jeffrey Epstein. And milk Ukraine for it. Audi MRR, the best thing parents can do is to keep their kids the hell away from government, politicians, and even law enforcement slash military. Government runs child trafficking. That's right. They run the schools as well. Well, we're going to take a quick break and we'll be right back.
Starting point is 00:54:28 When we come back, we're going to talk about the Civil War that is coming up, that they're pushing us towards in all these different countries. just like they're pushing us toward the pandemic, all these different groups at the same time. You know, like I said before, it's kind of interesting, isn't it? That in all the European countries, where you're talking about France or Germany, especially in the U.K., these different people who are completely opposite in what they profess in terms of their political ideology from Trump, and yet they are all pushing us, pushing all the buttons they can in order to push us into a civil war. We'll be right back. Excellencies, ladies and gentlemen, here Klaus.
Starting point is 00:55:13 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 Night Show. ...andahs...

Starting point is 00:56:33 You're listening to the David Knight Show. Hello, it's me, Volodymyr Zelensky. 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 gray MacGuffin hoodies or a new black t-shirt with the McGuffin logo in blue. But he told me to get lost.
Starting point is 00:57:16 Maybe one of you American suckers can buy me some at the David Knight Show.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 gals. and social events.

Starting point is 00:59:26 So you want a civil war? Well, let's remember what the first one looked like. This was an article from New Republic. Yesterday was the 163rd anniversary of Entietam. And that was the single bloodiest day in that bloody civil war. As a matter of fact, in terms of, and there's a picture that Matthew Brady took, it was famous for documenting it, and now we have, some people have taken those black and white pictures, fed them into AI that has colorized them and brought them to life with
Starting point is 01:00:02 a little bits of movement for people as they move around. But you know, it's, um, there was an interesting alternative history novel from Harry Turtle Dove called How Few Remain. And it began with the Battle of Antietam and what is interesting about this certainly it was a horrific bloody war as I said bloody battle that day 23,000 people casualties but one of the reasons that it was interesting to a lot of people besides the fact that it was the bloodiest single bloodiest day was the fact that Lee's orders to showing the outline of where the different armies were because he'd split his forces. It was wrapped around three cigars handed to this courier who was supposed to take it,
Starting point is 01:00:53 and he dropped it. So at the beginning of how few remain, the officer who's there said, oh, wait a minute, you dropped this thing. And the guy comes back and gets him, goes, imagine what would happen if that fell into enemy hands? Because in reality, it did fall into enemy hands. But McClellan, even with the map showing where Lee's troops were still couldn't beat Lee, he reacted quickly enough, and so it kind of came out as a stalemate, but an incredibly bloody battle.
Starting point is 01:01:25 And in the novel, what happens is you can imagine that if it was such a stalemate, even when the guy's got the other guy's battle plans, that it would have been a tremendous loss. they would have continued to go north, and it would have been an early into the war, perhaps. So that was what he based his alternative history on. So he picks it up a couple of decades down the road from that. And all the major figures, many of whom were killed during the war and the aftermath, come back, and they've got different positions, and it's a second civil war that happens. You've got Jeb Stewart out in the American West, and his cavalry is using camels because that was something that had been proposed by Jefferson Davis when he was with the War Department.
Starting point is 01:02:17 And you've got Stonewall Jackson has just been made president of the Confederacy after Robert Lee. And you've got Abraham Lincoln, who was driven out of public life in disgrace because of the loss of his war. and he comes back as a leader of the Socialist Party, which really fit, because that's really where the guy was coming from. But anyway, it's a very interesting novel, but he focuses on this bloody battle to say, you really don't want to have a civil war. And, of course, in the New Republic, the article is filled with their political propaganda, I guess, but just trying to take it out and look at the description of the battle. that was there. And, you know, the Trump administration, of course, is exploiting the assassination
Starting point is 01:03:10 of Charlie Kirk for constant partisan revitalization and the sharpening of conceptions of the fact that the enemy, whoever that is, must be destroyed. And I would agree with them on that. And so in September the 7th, 1862, in a teetum near Sharpsburg, the two armies clashed in what some still call the most deadly fighting on any battlefield in that entire war, McClellan versus Lee. McClellan had said, by the way, that when he got the plans of Robbery Lee, he said, if I can't defeat him, I need to go home. I think Lincoln thought the same thing afterwards. You know what? He did go home. You're right. After the photographer, Matthew Brady went to the gasoline landscape.
Starting point is 01:04:02 immediately after the battle and took unforgettable images of the mangled dead near the Dunker Church, the sunken road that you just saw there. Strewed along fences hard by the Hagerstown Pike, Americans have forever been able to see the results of unrestrained civil war. They can see, but they can't really hear, feel, taste, or smell so much death, and unimaginable suffering in one concentrated place. Most probably these soldiers who were there are only thought of survival, or endurance or home on that terrible day.
Starting point is 01:04:35 They witnessed the bodies of their comrades and their foes blown to pieces by short-range artillery. They saw bullets smash apart bones and blow off heads. They feared most being shot in the torso. That often meant no recovery. A shattered arm or leg might be survivable with an amputation. They had approximately 60,000 amputations throughout the Civil War. They faced impenetrable smoke,
Starting point is 01:05:01 and the terrifying noise of thousands of muskets and dozens of cannon all firing at once. They saw blood everywhere as it dried on bodies, on the ground, or on abandoned weapons, and the blood turned black. A Pennsylvania soldier said, No tongue can tell, no mind conceive, no pen portray the horrible sights I have witnessed this morning. Dead bodies everywhere, hideously swollen, and black. Many, he said, were so covered with dust, torn, crushed, trampled, that they look like clods of earth. And you were obliged to look twice before recognizing them as human beings.
Starting point is 01:05:43 Sometimes the dead swole up and exploded, fluids all around, even bursting inside makeshift coffins. So you say you want a civil war because you hate liberals? Or because you want a national divorce? By the way, you know, I always agree with secession. I think we should have a right of self-government, but you need to understand that if you want a divorce, as Marjorie Telle Green has been saying, you need to understand that you are married to an abusive husband who, when he finds out about your divorce papers, will seek you out, he will beat, rape, and kill you, and cut you to pieces just to show people how tough he is. That's what
Starting point is 01:06:24 we're talking about in a divorce. That's what the American government has done and will do. we have to find ways to fiercely disagree about ideas and I would say we also have to not destroy the First Amendment so we can have revenge against people that is truly the issue in front of us
Starting point is 01:06:44 you know so now the U.S. is at war with Venezuela they're going to inflict that on them and of course with the weapons of modern warfare it is we can do it in to civilians.
Starting point is 01:07:00 It's not just the soldiers that are facing this as well. And Trump is so proud of his second Venezuelan ship that he's blown up. That one was three people. That adds to his 11 that he killed before that he's so proud of as well. That's 14 people that he's killed in two weeks. Whether they are criminals or not, as I have said, I don't know that smuggling drugs is a capital. offense. But he's not even giving them due process. And he's boasting about the fact that he's not
Starting point is 01:07:33 giving them due process. Does that cause you concern? It causes me concern. Because I see in Trump a boasting, bragging, fascist, just like Dutarte, who did the same thing in the Philippines. Dutarte killed 12,000 people with his police. He told him to shoot on site anybody that they suspected of doing drugs, which is exactly what Trump is doing. Now, a lot of people say, well, perhaps he is just trying to push his way into a regime change with them. Is that any better? Is that an excuse? I mean, I look at the, everything about the drug war has been so destructive to the rule of law,
Starting point is 01:08:16 so destructive to our institutions, corrupting the police, corrupting the courts, corrupting Congress. They have thrown away all the ideas about due process. It's why we have SWAT team raids everywhere all the time in America. So, you know, yes, drugs are horrible, and they've taken the wrong approach to this. And it just keeps metastasizing. Trump assures us, but his assurances have done little to assuage concerns from some that the U.S. is headed toward or already engaged in an unauthorized. war with Venezuela. Of course, never with any declaration of war. Pam Bondi, the
Starting point is 01:09:00 Attorney General said last month, the U.S. government had seized up to $700 million worth of assets allegedly linked to Maduro. Trump also issued penalty tariffs on countries that purchase oil from Venezuela in March. Again, why would you think that that would be any different when they have instituted theft against American citizens without finding a conviction without even charging anybody with a crime they have confiscated houses cars cash planes you name it and in the name of the war on drugs they call it civil asset forfeiture civil because you have to sue them in civil court to get your property back that they stole by force civil asset forfeiture is a moving down the road from
Starting point is 01:09:50 the RICO statute that also came into existence because of drug war. But I got to say that that whole approach of, I'm just going to take what you, what you have, and you're going to have to try to stop me in court. That has become the rationale for everything that Trump does. And it's one the reasons why I dislike him so much, because as much as I dislike civil asset forfeiture, stealing somebody's car, and you have any, you don't charge them in the crime. You charge the car with a crime, and then saying, okay, if you want to get it back, you got to sue me. That's what Trump has done with the rule of law. He takes the rule of law, and he says, if you want to stop me, you got to take me to court.
Starting point is 01:10:32 And maybe even that won't stop him at some point in time. What needs to start happening is that some of these boats, they need to get blown up, said Marco Rubio. Well, it seems to be what's happening. When asked on Sunday if the U.S. would start doing strikes on mainland Venezuela, Trump said, well, we'll see what happens, right? I will decide. It's just going to be on my whim, my capricious and arbitrary whim.
Starting point is 01:10:55 We're not going to have a debate about this. Did they ask you about this? No. Did they ask Congress about it? No. I'm not going to have a public debate. He's just going to do whatever he wishes. And the Congress under Speaker Johnson, squeaker Johnson, the mouse, will do nothing about it.
Starting point is 01:11:14 Venezuela has responded to the first strike where 11 were killed by flying two F-16 fighter jets over a U.S. Navy destroyer on September 4th, to which Trump warned that the U.S. would shoot them down if they did it again. He said, it puts us in a dangerous situation. Yeah, you know, would they be flying their planes over American ships if the American ships weren't close to their waters? The Venezuelan Foreign Ministry said whoever ordered the action was looking for an incident to justify escalating war in the Caribbean with the aim of regime change.
Starting point is 01:11:47 Well, we all know that it was Trump who did that, and we all know that is what Trump wants. Most cocaine, by the way, in Latin America, is produced in Colombia, Peru, Bolivia, not Venezuela. In 2019, 74% of cocaine shipments to the U.S. came through the Pacific, which Venezuela does not border. 74% came through the Caribbean. Sorry, 24% came through the Caribbean, according to the DEA. So that's what the DEA is telling us. All of this raises legal concerns that Trump would think that he is entitled to kill people without any proof. And again, as I said, if this were a capital offense, they should still get due process.
Starting point is 01:12:32 But it's not even a capital offense. If you stop the boat and you found drugs there, should you then be a lot, would you want the military then to execute everybody on board, especially when it's not a capital offense. Countries are prohibited from using force unless under attack per the UN charter. After designating the trendy gang as a terrorist organization, Trump accused the cartel of invasion. He invoked the 1798 Alien Enemies Act and said the gang was conducting irregular warfare against the U.S. at the direction of Maduro.
Starting point is 01:13:08 There's one lie after the other. in that it just he stacks the lies so hard it's difficult to get down to which one was actually the foundational lie this here but the fact that u.s officials describe the individuals killed by the u.s. strike as narco-terrorist does not transform them into lawful military targets it doesn't matter if the victims are criminals these are murderers said one lawyer who was posting on this Intentional killing outside of armed conflict hostilities is unlawful unless it is to save life immediately. You see, when we look at this, when I've talked about a just war, these are rules in Western civilization that have been adopted even by the UN and by international law. And that is that you are not allowed to just kill people, you're not allowed to begin wars.
Starting point is 01:14:05 we still understand that that is unjust to do preemptive strikes. And we still understand that if you are not being directly threatened, you are not allowed to use deadly force. The same rules that apply in your household. Yes, you are allowed to protect yourself. But if somebody is not directly threatening you, even if they broke into your house, presumably, you know, you still have to make the case that your life was in danger.
Starting point is 01:14:33 If they broke into your house and they're running away with a TV set, you can't shoot them in the back. And so Trump is working to shred any last remnant of the just war based on Christian principles, just like he's working very hard to shred any last remnants of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. He wants to do this, I think partially, to wag the Epstein. But I think he really wants the oil that's there. They have more oil than Saudi Arabia. And as Gerald Sunti always points out, we're not doing this to any of these other Caribbean nations, and we're not doing it to the ones that are actually manufacturing most of the drugs,
Starting point is 01:15:14 because they don't have oil. Venezuela does. Maybe it has nothing to do with the oil. He's just really concerned about the fentanyl coming from Canada specifically and the cocaine coming from Venezuela specifically. Yeah, that's right, which isn't. But, you know, people don't, you know, is absurd to say that there's fentanyl coming from Canada, but people can believe that somewhere
Starting point is 01:15:37 down there, I don't know my geography, but somewhere down there down south, they're making this stuff up and they're sending it up to us. So he can maybe get away with that lie better than with the Canadian one. The fact that Congress has just been completely left out of the loop suggests that Trump administration doesn't feel that it has to follow the rules of the game said a professor of international law. Well, of course, they don't believe that they've got to follow the rules in any sphere, foreign or domestic. Ram Paul, of course, expressed concern when J.D. Vance said, killing cartel members who poison our fellow citizens is the highest and the best use of our
Starting point is 01:16:15 military. Yeah, that's, as I said, I'm getting more and more concerned as we go along with J.D. Vance. Just kill them. Yeah, at least he's just saying arrest people who are. haters, but he wants the people who are, that he says, are involved in the drug war without any proof or due process. Rand Paul said, did he ever read to kill a mockingbird? Did he ever wonder what might happen if the accused were immediately executed without trial
Starting point is 01:16:50 or representation? So, yeah, what do we know about this? I think it was interesting that the Atlantic Council, which is always, pushed war and is involved with NATO. They love this. They love all wars. They're like Lindsey Graham in terms of an institution. And so they wrote an op-ed piece on what to know about Trump's war on drug trafficking from Venezuela. What they want you to know, this is the gist of the article, that these actions that he's taking against Venezuela are long overdue, according to them. Isn't that amazing? We should take Trump at his word when he hints that the U.S. is evaluating
Starting point is 01:17:30 the possibility of striking targets inside Venezuela. One big challenge for the U.S. military planners, however, is that Venezuela has a functional air defense system, which it's kept running with the help of Russian advisors. Any strikes in Venezuelan territory may have to first take out air defenses, which could further complicate U.S. relations with Moscow at an already tense moment. Well, it's not just Russian advisors running their air defense. It's also the Chinese are deeply embedded there. So if he goes in with a big stick to bash Venezuela and take their oil,
Starting point is 01:18:08 he's going to find that Russians and Chinese are there as well. This is possibly another tripwire into World War III, which I think would suit him just fine. That would be the ultimate Wag the Epstein move. So for now, he said, I think we'll see continued saber rattling that appears aimed at signaling to disaffected elements of the Venezuelan armed forces that now is a time to rise up against Maduro. The problem with this approach is that the U.S.-backed operations have failed to produce such cracks
Starting point is 01:18:41 inside the Venezuelan government over the past 20 years. So this is why this writer wants us to start it in earnest, and he said this is long overdue. Since we couldn't overthrow them from the inside, let's overthrow them from the outside. But one thing is certain. We have to overthrow them, he said. but Trump is sending mixed signals just like he does with the tariffs. You had as recently as July, Washington eased restrictions on Venezuelan oil exports after negotiating a prisoner release. Even now, in spite of the tensions, the U.S. and Venezuela are cooperating on the president's immigration agenda.
Starting point is 01:19:19 The U.S. government is funding twice weekly immigration deportation flights that take off directly from U.S. military installations and land in Venezuela's largest airport. So this is going to work against his deportation agenda, but the guy at the Atlantic Council, Jeff Ramsey, doesn't really care. Let's do it. Now is the time. Let's let loose the dogs of war. Well, whenever you have a war, you have not only massive carnage,
Starting point is 01:19:50 but now, as I said, in the 21st century, the war is focused against civilians. An Israeli sniper has detailed killing Palestinians, including children, who are waiting for aid and in line for food. As an Israeli sniper from the IDF's Nahal Brigade, detailed in comments to Haaretz, the killing of unarmed Palestinians, including children, who were attempting to get aid in Gaza. He said it started about two months ago. The soldier goes by the pseudonym Benny.
Starting point is 01:20:23 Every day, we had the same mission to secure. the humanitarian aid in northern Gaza Strip. When they say secure it, what they mean is to make sure that doesn't get distributed. The report said that Benny and his fellow soldiers began their day at 3.30 a.m. when they set up sniper positions near where the aid trucks arrive to unload their contents. He said the Gaza residents tried to move forward to get a good spot in line, but they often cross an invisible line that was set by the IDF, a line that if they cross it, I can shoot them.
Starting point is 01:20:58 It's like a game of cat and mouse. They try to come from different directions every time, and I'm there with a sniper rifle, and the officers are yelling at me. Take him down, take him down. I fire 50, 60 bullets every day. I've stopped counting the kills. I have no idea how many I have killed, a lot.
Starting point is 01:21:17 Children, he said. He said, Horat's previously reported that IDF soldiers were order to fire on Palestinians, attempting to reach the GHF distribution sites to drive them away or disperse them, even though they posed no threat. And then what they tell the international press is that the food is just rotting. They can't get it to them. It's like it's rotting because when you're killing people to keep them from taking the food.
Starting point is 01:21:44 Benny told Haretz that if he didn't want to shoot Palestinian civilians waiting for aid, he was forced to by commanders and sometimes threatened. The battalion commander would yell over the radio, why aren't you taking them down? They're heading your way. This is dangerous. He said, the sense is that we're being positioned in an impossible situation. And no one has prepared us for this.
Starting point is 01:22:09 The officers do not care if children die. They also do not care what it does to my soul. To them, I am just a... another tool. And this is why they want autonomous or remote-controlled robots and drones to kill. You know, essentially this is what they're telling this guy, but he's, you know, he's got problems with this. So we've had medical doctors who have talked about snipers killing people, children, especially, and taking two shots, one to the chest to kill them and then one to the head to be sure. And now you've got the snipers who are going public with it.
Starting point is 01:22:49 Yeah, like you said, it's one reason they want drones. Yeah. The child mangler 9,000 isn't going to grow a conscience and decide I should report on this to Ha Arets. That's right. Another soldier who went by the name Yanni shared a story about killing two children and bite La Haya, northern Gaza. After one soldier shouted terrorists were approaching, we got into a frenzy, and I get on the Negev, a machine gun right away, and I start spraying, firing hundreds of bullets. We then charged forward, and I realized that it was a mistake. I saw the bodies of two children, maybe eight or ten years old.
Starting point is 01:23:26 I have no idea. There was blood everywhere. Lots of signs of gunfire. I knew it was all on me that I had done this. I wanted to throw up. After a few minutes, the company commander arrived and said coldly, as if he wasn't a human being, they entered an extermination zone. It's their fault.
Starting point is 01:23:48 this is what war is like he added well that is absolutely true that is what it's like so other Israeli soldiers have detailed killing unarmed Palestinian civilians without expressing any remorse Israeli media outlets have reported extensively on the existence of kill zones in Gaza where any Palestinian who crosses a line set up by the IDF is deemed a terrorist this reminds me of the stories that came out of Panama when they had the Panama invasion and after the fact and documentary that I saw the people that were there said we had this loudspeaker said get out of the area we are going to attack this area anybody who's in this area will be killed and they're like what is the area
Starting point is 01:24:36 am I in the area or am I out of the area they had no idea it's just a big loudspeaker saying if you're still in the area and they don't define it we will kill you so So, meanwhile, you had about 250 members of Congress are in Israel to get their orders. And the thing that I thought was interesting about this was the, and of course, this is the tweet about it. They call this 50 states one Israel. And so it's all to serve Israel's interest, not our 50 states. They have, they're not just taking. over Gaza, they're taking over America.
Starting point is 01:25:18 It's truly amazing how subservient and groveling these politicians are. Whatever you want, whatever you need. Well, we can rejoice on one thing. This was their entertainment. That's a guy singing. Birds fly. fly over the rain.
Starting point is 01:25:50 And there we can see our congressmen setting that being is that sufficient punishment for them? No. The inhumane actions of the IDF extend even to our congressman. Was that a demo of what they're going to unleash on the Palestinians next? We're going to be pumping this over loudspeaker into Gaza. Somewhere over the rainbow. They don't have the rainbow flags there for some reason.
Starting point is 01:26:16 I don't know. It really makes you wonder. Well, in Tel Aviv, there's many, many rainbow flags. Tel Aviv is actually one of the gayest cities on Earth. That's right. That's where the rainbow flag stuff began. It really is. Wonder why.
Starting point is 01:26:29 Curiouser and curiouser. We've got comments. Shelly A. I don't understand that Civil War talk. Who's going to fight the military? The trannies? They mostly fight themselves. They have a habit of removing themselves from the equation.
Starting point is 01:26:45 The thing is, any crazy person with a gun can be dangerous as we have just seen in recent news. Well, you know, I used to, when I was with the Libertarian Party and we would do interviews, they would interview us. And we would talk about how essential Second Amendment was. And we were talking about the fact that, hey, it's not about hunting. It's not even about self-defense. It's about keeping the government in check. And I had every time we would have reporters talk to us that would scoff at that idea. What do you think you're going to do with the military?
Starting point is 01:27:16 And I said, well, it's called asymmetric warfare. And we haven't won any of these yet. And since that time, we've now lost two more asymmetric wars because of that type of thing. But, you know, it is, it is horrific, and it will be horrific, an asymmetric war here. I mean, take a look at what happened in Iraq and Afghanistan. You really want to have that happen here? No sane person would want to see that. it is mutually assured destruction that's the point of the second amendment you know we have nuclear
Starting point is 01:27:48 weapons because the other people had nuclear weapons and we just hope and pray that somebody doesn't use them against us and the same thing is true of the guns and the government we hope that they don't use their guns against us and you know kick off a civil war like that but yeah and i want to say Thank you to B. L. Houghton on Rumble. He has gifted 10 subs to the community there on Rumble. So thank you very much. I really do appreciate it. And now we've got Defy Tireant 1776.
Starting point is 01:28:21 Why would Speaker of the House say in public that president was FBI informant? More distractions. Yeah, that's right. Just throw this out here that let them debate that now for a couple of days. That'll keep them busy for a while. Yeah. Christian Constitutional Conservative. When Team Blue takes over eventually they will.
Starting point is 01:28:38 They will ramp up the censorship. Even more. Censorship begets censorship. That's right. People will forget. I mean, it's just January 6th. Look at what Biden was doing with the outrageous claims about insurrection and revolution, all the rest of this stuff. And how they were coming after people simply on the basis of their speech in many cases.
Starting point is 01:28:59 Because there were very few people, at the 1,500 people, they were not violent. Not all of them. I mean, as I said from the very beginning, you got pictures of somebody being violent. violent, you know, come after them. But Joe Biggs, for example, they featured him. He was one of the people that they wanted to give decades in prison to. And Enrico Terrio, who was head of the priob boys, wasn't even there. So there wasn't any violence from those guys.
Starting point is 01:29:25 And yet, they wanted to send them to jail forever. I mean, Joe Biggs is just walking around peacefully. And the report, Sam, who was at Info War, walking peacefully between the velvet ropes, filming it, working as a journalist, and Biden didn't care. He didn't care about free press. He didn't care about free speech. He didn't care about the peaceful redress of grievances, all of those things protected in the First Amendment. So you don't have to imagine what if. People have seen this and it was done against the very people, the Maga cult, that are out there demanding that the First Amendment be removed now for their enemies. It's just mindless revenge. If we don't get,
Starting point is 01:30:08 the principles of Christ about forgiveness, if we don't understand the importance of the rule of law, it will take us into this civil war barbarism. That's why Christianity is the answer, not the Republican Party, not Trump. If we don't follow Christ and his example, and we don't start looking at forgiveness and figure out how we're going to build a civilization rather than focusing on how we're going to tear down civilization, that's the problem I have of the GOP and the Democrats. Everything they do is designed to tear down our civilization and not to rebuild it. We've got so bogus, says, our family never thought much of Mr. Lincoln.
Starting point is 01:30:49 That was the best line, the Ken Burns documentary. I think that was Shelby Foote, who said that. By the way, I think he has got the, by far and away, the best history of the Civil War, and I've read a lot of them. he is an excellent writer and he spent almost all of his life researching and writing about the civil war we've got soxhav oxa says now that is what a i is great for just wow talking about the civil war pictures that they animated yeah yeah that was very interesting so bogus all wars are schemes that he populate young males especially world war one yeah the world wars really just
Starting point is 01:31:31 destroyed the young male population of Europe. It fed them into a meat grinder. It really, really, probably more than decimated. Desimating is taking one in ten. I'd be surprised if the world wars didn't take more than that. Oh, yeah. We've got Shelley A. They have poisoned and dumped everyone down. There will not be a civil war. I hope there isn't a civil war. And I hope it's not just because everyone is too dumb and weak. Defy a tyrant 1776. Americans who are your for a civil war, in my opinion, are fools. They have no clue what they're yearning for. I always can't handle being without electricity for one day. They are very disconnected from reality. And of course, that's one of the things that some people have said is that if you have a war with
Starting point is 01:32:13 China or something like Taiwan or something, they will most likely do attacks against the infrastructure because they can have a plausible deniability that it came from them. But of course, the same thing is true of Venezuela, right? That would be even more. obvious approach for them in terms of asymmetric war they are no match against our our forces so the only hope that they would have would be to create chaos against the infrastructure I want to say thank you again to B L. Houghtney he has gifted another five subs thank you so much 15 subs now gifted by VL Houghton I know we've got a lot of comments but our guest is ready we'll have to get those comments afterwards and I
Starting point is 01:32:56 know you said someone sent in a question about a book yeah we'll talk about that And I'm sorry, the listener who sent that, I've not replied yet. I'll give you, you said that Travis had said something about alternative history. We'll talk about that after we get Tony on. We're going to take a quick break, folks, and we will be right back. We're going to be able to be. Oh! You're going to be able to be.
Starting point is 01:33:37 I'm going to I'm going to be I'm going to be. I'm going to I'm going to I'm I'm I'm
Starting point is 01:33:51 I'm I'm on the I'm I'm going to be able to be. You're listening to the David Knight Show. Yeah. Well, welcome back, folks. We have Tony Ardibund on the line, and again, Wise Wolf Gold, and you can get there with David Knight.gov. That'll take you to Tony's site.
Starting point is 01:35:09 A lot is happening with gold, and we've just had the feds cut the rates by a quarter of a point. And Bank of America says that gold always rallies, Tony, when the Fed cuts rates in an inflationary environment that has been difficult to get under control. They think that they said that gold prices have seen average gains of around 13% within 12 months after the Fed has cut interest rates in a stubborn inflationary environment.
Starting point is 01:35:40 However, that looks like a fairly muted response as gold prices are already up nearly 40% so far this year. What do you say about that? Well, who knew? When you create inflation, gold tends to go up and, for a nice, is the denominated by dollars.
Starting point is 01:35:55 Who knew? Yeah, Bank of America. I think that's a good call, but it's a good chart to look back on because there are some analysts that we're saying don't move interest rates, you know, because the dollar is already weak. We already see inflation is still out of control and de-dollarization is continuing to eat away at the purchasing power of the dollar. So holding steady was actually a much wiser movement.
Starting point is 01:36:18 If you see, like the quote from Jerome Pauley said, we see where we are now. And we took the appropriate action today on that's coming off of the FOMC meeting where he cut interest rates by 25 basis points. And that was, I think there was like a 99% bet on the markets that he would make that move. And there's a lot of pressure from the White House and the Trump administration and putting pressure on these Fed governors and everything else. It really, it's not something that's happened in American history, this outright conflict directly with the Fed. trying to get monetary policy shifted towards further inflation, but that's what we're headed. Interesting enough, gold went down. It's down about $43 or so from the opening bell. And now it's, I mean, still reaching all-time highs. I mean, we broke $3,700 last week.
Starting point is 01:37:16 But, you know, the economy and the perceived value that will be pumped into there, I think, That took a little bit of a hit on gold, but as you see, the Bank of England didn't do anything, and gold just keeps going. Less and less do these decisions really affect the price of precious metals, David. And that's because this has become global and systemic, the de-dollarization process, in my opinion. And there's another story that's out today that I'd like to talk about. I think this really struck me as probably one of the most important moves in precious metals in a long time. and that's the move for the Hong Kong gold exchange to come online and start trading there in physical gold and building gold storage facilities that can house up to 2,000 tons outside of the airport. Wow.
Starting point is 01:38:08 Because if you understand the history of Hong Kong and, of course, now completely controlled by the communist regime of China, and since 1997, I think that is, I think that's a big story. it's not getting a lot of play right now as we see a de-dollarization continue to happen and gold really taking the helm as the world's reserve currency. Yeah, we spent a couple of days in Hong Kong when we adopted my daughter about 20 years ago. And one of the things that really fascinated me about it was, first of all, a very nice city.
Starting point is 01:38:40 People were incredibly nice. One of the nicest big cities I've ever visited, very friendly people. They all spoke English. And we'd be puzzling over a map or something and people walk up, hey, can I help you? find something? You know, it was very nice. But the money that we had was all different because it was issued by private banks, which is what used to be done in America. I remember pulling out
Starting point is 01:39:04 some of these notes, the same denomination, and it was completely different, different design, different color, different size. I thought, what is this? How can we have Hong Kong dollars, this many Hong Kong dollars? And then here's another bill that's the same denomination, totally different. And I saw that they were issued by different banks that were there. It wasn't done by a Hong Kong central bank. So this is kind of interesting. I wonder if this is something that the Chinese communist are involved in
Starting point is 01:39:33 because part of this, we've had the Shanghai Gold Exchange. And that's really one of the things that has caused me concern about the ETFs that are out there, GLD and then SLV for silver. Do you really own that? Do they really have the gold in the? the Shanghai exchange, or are they Shanghai in you as far as your money goes, you know? So it'll be interesting to see what happens with Hong Kong. Well, I think this is a indirect conflict and a shot across the bow at London and the
Starting point is 01:40:04 West currency exchanges right now. This is, I didn't expect to see this. I mean, you mentioned the Shanghai gold exchange and that's been pretty much the norm. But I go back to, well, I watched that live in 1997 when the Chinese warship. rolled into. I mean, you remember the handoff from the, where the British had a 99 year lease, wasn't that right? Yeah, yeah, that's right. On Hong Kong.
Starting point is 01:40:29 Yeah. And everybody was wondering what they would do, but they didn't do much. I mean, they've put down, this was something at the end of 2019, you remember, was going on with the Hong Kongers and some of the uprising. They've been tightening the noose very, very
Starting point is 01:40:44 slowly. They're very patient with that stuff, aren't they? They don't come in, just start shooting everybody, but they will hang you a little bit at a time. They're like boa constrictors or something. I think this is a very important strategic move that this is being done
Starting point is 01:41:00 pushed by Beijing in order to reallocate and repurpose the world's commodity markets through Hong Kong, which would be a smart play, getting it away from the West, because it lends like you mentioned that decentralized legitimacy. It lends that to
Starting point is 01:41:16 the world and shows, oh no, it's and it completely controlled by the communist chinese at the same time interesting play and i think that may this may be one of the most important stories on precious metals in the monetary system since we talked about russia making silver a strategic reserve asset i think that the price of silver is directly correlated right now with that one move in my opinion i mean we've all the other market conditions are about the same as they were uh in accordance with silver uh in the last couple of years but that one move by russia it really has made a difference, in my opinion, on the price of silver.
Starting point is 01:41:51 So this is another move, I think, that will set the stage for the resetting of the monetary system worldwide. And I think, you know, by doing it in Hong Kong, you know, the Chinese really do control Hong Kong. They control it from the top down. They've gradually exercised their control, using it through the schools and doing it through the politicians at the top. And the people are pushing back against that quite a bit until COVID. And then, as Gerald Sinty points out, that just ended it all. That was the end of the pushback. And so they've now consolidated all of their control over this stuff.
Starting point is 01:42:27 But there's still this idea in the West that Hong Kong is somehow this still a separate autonomous region, which it's not anymore. And that it's a bastion of freedom. I remember the series that was done by Milton Friedman called Free to Choose, and he used Hong Kong as an example of freedom. and thriving because of that. And that was largely possible because the British had taken kind of a hands-off approach. They didn't really want to run the place, and they were kind of stuck with it until the lease ran out.
Starting point is 01:43:03 And so they kind of left these people alone. And so it was a good laboratory to show how effective freedom can be, but not anymore. There's still that illusion, I think, in the West. And I think that'll serve the Chinese communist very well. That illusion. I were watching a report years ago. I'm not sure you could do this today, but John Stossel went over to Hong Kong just to show how easy it was to start a business as compared to starting it in New York City and just did the, you know, the diametrically opposed idea, all the forms and everything and all the red tape, probably the bribes and everything in New York City as opposed to Hong Kong where you just go in and I think you just get a slip and you fill it out and then just hand it back and say, I'm going to be over here, I'm going to start this business, and that's pretty much it. I don't know if that's the case anymore.
Starting point is 01:43:46 This was a long time ago. But no, you're right. There's a perception there. Probably got to find somebody in the Chinese Communist Party that you're going to pay off and make a partner. That's probably the way it works. I would assume so. I would assume. Yeah, but that's still that lasting impression.
Starting point is 01:43:58 Yeah. And I thought when I watched, I was 17 years old in 97, when I watched those warships roll in, I thought, I wonder what they'll do. You know, if they leave it alone and let it stand, that'll say a lot about the Chinese or the communist, you know, government. in Beijing, that'll say a lot about them if they just leave it alone, and they, for the most part, have. But you're right. And they move slowly. You know, they're very patient. They've got their goal of where they want
Starting point is 01:44:24 to go, and they're constantly moving toward it, but they are doing it with very small steps so that you don't notice. That's the key thing. And they can get what they want that way very easily. I mean, you talk about making small steps towards getting what they want. There's an interesting article from
Starting point is 01:44:40 the corporate report. I forget what his first name is it, Jim Corbett. And he was talking about the fact that he went to Malaysia and it was some conference that he was doing and he was talking about how difficult it was for him to even try to get something to eat because everybody had gone to electronic forms of payment. His cell phone didn't work there
Starting point is 01:45:01 and he couldn't get into the app that everybody wanted to take. And so in his hotel, he had cash and they still have cash in Malaysia, but the hotel didn't want to take it. it wound up and then letting him go the second time that he did it first time they went through this long process they got the manager they opened up the safe and they got a little bit of cash line and paid second time there wasn't a manager around so they just let him walk but then after that he tried to get food outside of the hotel and there was absolutely no way that he could do it because he
Starting point is 01:45:33 didn't have the cell phone connection and he said this is a taste of what life is going to be like once we move to a cashless society, you won't even be able to eat in the system unless you adopt this system that they want to have out there. And that's why I look at gold because I think, now again, you know, people may not take gold, but then I'm sure that you'll be able to find people who will take it. It's going to be an underground black market economy if they get this thing through. And I imagine you saw what's going on with Visa teaming up with a large, biometric company where they will look at your face they'll look at your
Starting point is 01:46:13 fingerprints and then visa will handle the processing of it so it's a merger between a biometric company and visa in order to set up this market of beast system that's coming down the road very quickly well it's interesting you mentioned and I've been thinking a lot about the moves to a cashless society via stable coin and what that would look like and you know this war that's maybe and get it could be a pageant could be scripted um most likely is in some way but there's a controlled demolition going on of the federal reserve itself so the creature from jekyll island is maybe being put down or repurposed or something if you mention cash so all over
Starting point is 01:46:55 the world all the cash that it's out there and and again it's like i think it's like 80% of all the hundred dollar bills that are printed and not in the continental united states and 65% of all the paper currency that's ever been printed, it's not in the continental United States. But those are federal reserve notes, every single one of them. The only, this is a little bit of history, but John F. Kennedy made notes direct from the Treasury, and so did Lincoln. And as Jim Mars said, they were both shot in the head in public. So the only two presidents that made notes directly from the Treasury.
Starting point is 01:47:28 But I think about that. If they get rid of the Federal Reserve, then that invalidates the notes as well? That's an open question, right? David, I mean, if you're talking about getting away from cash, and you're looking at the link between the treasury and stable coin, actually the treasury has close ties to stable coin. And it's based off of the, right, it's based off of treasuries. Yeah. So that's an interesting. So I'm looking at this and I'm just kind of wargaming out.
Starting point is 01:47:59 This is what I think about all the time. I'm probably exhausting to be around because I always pose these questions, even talking. talking to myself. But that's something to think about. You mentioned the cashless society, and it made me think about that, is the Fed doesn't move policy. It doesn't move the economy the way it used to, and especially doesn't move gold. So it's a weakening position. And you see, you know, with the Trump administration, going out to these Fed governors, I mean, you've been accusing the one Fed governor of mortgage fraud. And she's not moving. Did you notice that they just found out that Scott Bessent did the same thing?
Starting point is 01:48:35 multiple homes. I think it was like $21 million worth of homes that he bought and said there were his primary residence. So, you know, as I said before, yeah, it was fraud, but you know why they were doing it. Trump is trying to insinuate to the Fed governors that if they don't do what he wants, he's going to come after them personally. You know, that's the gangster move that he does. But now you see the same thing happen with Scott Besson, somebody. found out. It took a little bit longer because Pulte was using AI. He bragged about using AI to investigate mortgage fraud. And so he's been using AI to find crimes of Trump's political enemies. That should concern us as well. But it's kind of interesting to see that happen. Now, you mentioned the
Starting point is 01:49:25 stable coin stuff. When you go back and look at the petro dollar, how did Saudi Arabia prop up the U.S. dollar. They did it by buying the Fed Reserve notes, right? And so if you got the stable, if that's, now that that's falling apart, stable coin is there because the stable coin people will buy up the bonds from the government and it will be at a retail level rather than trying to sell it to the central banks of various countries. That's, it really is a way for them to sustain the fiat nature of the dollar, isn't it? well it was about exclusivity you know not just not just buying the dollars but the exclusivity of everything has to be denominated in dollars to purchase energies so that was the petro dollar
Starting point is 01:50:15 from 1974 to 2025 and we lost that it was that was a weird occurrence wasn't it where we watched them just not do anything and i wonder you're just going to lose the petro dollar yeah and uh you had Biden's advisors you know riding was it Bernstein that wrote about losing the petro dollar or losing the world's reserve currency would be good writing in the New York Times would be good for America and I thought this is insane
Starting point is 01:50:42 but if you look at the on ramps of stable coins that changes the game because if you have to denominate something and something in a stable coin that's backed by the dollar or that follows a dollar like tether to enter these markets where if things go digital then you can then you give new life
Starting point is 01:50:59 it's a rebirth of the dollar itself and especially if you were to repatriate cash and get rid of Federal Reserve notes and go direct to this, you know, public-private partnership of label coins. It's interesting to watch. It's an interesting thought experiment because they're doing something. There's a move being made right now that aren't, but the traditional, this isn't the traditional financial news that we're watching, especially with the push so hard to lower interest rates.
Starting point is 01:51:29 That's right. Yeah. They told us where they want to go. they called it CBDC and everybody said, no, no, no, we don't want CBDC. Okay, we won't give you CBDC. Don't worry. That's dead. Instead, we'll give you stable coin. And it has all the functionality in terms of surveillance and control being able to deny transactions to people. And it's all of that that CBDC does. But, you know, people are, again, it's the way they label this stuff. You know, we don't want the Democrats because we know what they're going to do.
Starting point is 01:51:56 So they give you the Republican who does the same thing but calls it something different. And that's what's really going on with the CBDC versus a stable coin. And this thing with Visa, the company is called Tech 5. They've got a seven-year global agreement to accelerate the rollout of digital identity and payment systems as part of the larger framework of digital public infrastructure. That's what they call it at the UN and the World Economic Forum, DPI. It's not dots per inch, but it's now the digital public infrastructure. And that's the infrastructure of control that they're putting on everybody coming in at all of these different groups you've got the world economic forum the u.n the european union uh they're all pushing that of course uh bill
Starting point is 01:52:42 gates is in favor of it as well in his organization that's the future in the world future according to the oligarchs and the overlord class that's what they want and they want surveillance disguised as money and that's why i look at gold and silver is a hedge not only against the fiat dollar and how they're manipulating it and its value and inflation is a hedge against all that but it's also a hedge against this thing as well it's the only hedge that's really available to us of any sort it's not a perfect hedge but it's the only one that we've got i agree and you have all of recorded history human beings have used gold and silver as a form of money that's not going away if you read the history of of metals like i do and they're linked to our
Starting point is 01:53:29 story, the human story, then you understand these aren't going to be decoupled. So they'll be around. So that's going to be the challenge for them to completely control every aspect of our lives using these centralized public-private partnerships that they will
Starting point is 01:53:45 use. And it is, the whole thing is laughable when you think about it. It's just repurpose, rebranded. Same thing with censorship. Look, look, the pendulum swung the other way now. Now we're you have Pan Bondi in the same breath saying that she said well we need to to support people that want to that in anybody that's being employed and if you can't support Charlie Kirk or put up any sort of memorial for him then we want to stand by you but if you speak ill with Charlie Kirk and you get fired we don't want to stand with your employer. She said that in the same two sentences and that's the that's where the pendulum has swung as far as censorship so it's the same thing with CBDC and
Starting point is 01:54:29 in a centralized control, controlled fee out currency. Yeah, somebody pointed out, and it is, it is true. I thought the same analogy that, you know, if she says that she's going to go after Home Depot because they had an employee, who they've now fired, who refused to print a poster that was going to honor Charlie Kirk, so she says, yeah, we're going to find out, we're going to go after that business. That is, that's already been shut down twice at the Supreme Court. And conservatives were outraged and rightfully so that the state of Colorado,
Starting point is 01:54:59 would continue to come after these bakers who they were trying to get them to trying to force them to bake a tranny cake and things like that and and yet now the conservatives are cheering this because look who's doing it you know it's why they can they have the two parties they can keep switching these two factors back and forth and have the guy do it that can get away with it the move towards that authoritarian censorship willingly, I think, was always the goal is to whip people up in an emotional
Starting point is 01:55:34 frenzy. That's right. Willingly. That's the issue. That's the danger that we're in right now. And that's why, at least with the left, you know what you're getting. They tell you exactly what they're doing. Pretty much out front. This is who we are. It's what we want to change.
Starting point is 01:55:50 They signal that, and then it's your job to oppose them. The right is more insidious or the so-called right. Yeah. There's a lot more insidious it's being shown to you right now, just how dangerous they have become with the language that they use. And again, the diametrically opposed ideas being fused together, like Pam Bondi has done. I agree, yeah.
Starting point is 01:56:15 And the people that I see on social media, you know, I did a substack piece about cancel cultures now owned by the conservatives. And all these people are like, you know, well, good, I'm glad that that's the case. You know, these are the people who hated it when it was done against them. The people who can't understand that these powers that the Republicans are setting up will be used by the Democrats against them, just like they used warfare against them on January the 6th. They don't see that coming back at all. They are naive enough to not think that power will ever switch back to the other side, and they are always switching it back and forth because that's how. The march of tyranny, remember that Ben Garrison poster of the march of tyranny, left, right, left, right.
Starting point is 01:57:04 He's got the two boots that are marching, the left wing and the right wing. They've got to keep doing it, alternating it back and forth, or they can't move forward. And these people just don't get it. They're cheering the stuff that they absolutely hated because it's now for their guys, right? It's revenge for Charlie Kirk, and it's coming from Trump, so it's got to be okay. I think what you're alluding to is something that David Ike called the totalitarian tiptoe reminded me of that just using both sides just to get to that control grid that new world order that they want to build and it's sad to watch and a lot of these things you know we can get bogged down in the politics you certainly can
Starting point is 01:57:46 and I'm not saying don't be an activist or don't speak out don't do things but it seems like a lot of that's just going to take care of itself. And I'm over here looking at the big macro picture, especially the economic picture, and what you can do to prepare for the fallout that I think is inevitable at this point. I mean, the culture that we have here in this country, unfortunately in the West is disintegrating.
Starting point is 01:58:08 And now is it going to go full, you know, China syndrome melt down to nothing? No, it won't. But we're definitely going to have to experience some major shifts and culturally, socially, economically in the next five years as we're on this timeline of agenda 2030 and the Great Reset and everything else. So that's what I look at.
Starting point is 01:58:28 I mean, a lot of this stuff is already set into motion. And there's big question marks that hangover. How much of this is manufactured? I mean, we could talk about the fight between supposed, you know, hostility between the Fed and the Trump administration. You know, I see that it's happening. I don't know how much of it's real. It's kind of like there was a desert war, a war soldier, desert storm soldier that.
Starting point is 01:58:52 In the first Gulf War, named Doyle Shamley, he was the right-hand man for Bill Cooper, and he was very well-read, so he was part of the cab units, and they would go and blow up these Iraqi tanks that were Soviet-made, and he'd go and pull the data plate off, because every tank has a data plate where it shows, like, how it was made it, where it was factory, and it was all in English. So because a lot of the same factories that made the Soviet tanks in World War II and were propped up by the banking houses
Starting point is 01:59:22 and the Rockefellers and the industrialists and everything still making, you know, Soviet made weapons that killed our soldiers in Vietnam and Korea. And a lot of this is, you know, staged for lack of a better term. It doesn't mean that the Cold War wasn't real or there wasn't real threats of nuclear weapons. Well, look at all the companies, the American corporations that worked with the Nazis,
Starting point is 01:59:45 IBM and the rest of them, you know, at the same time. They always do that. Their flag is the dollar sign or whatever they can exchange. I've got a lot of questions here from people in comments. A nice of storm. So when I got into the metals, gold was at 1,800, silver at 20. That was just a couple of years ago. Overall trend will be upward as a dollar declines.
Starting point is 02:00:06 But then Jason says, a question for you, Tony. If we move into CBDC, or let's say stable coin, how will this affect the price of metals since it will be valued in a different system. What do you think? That's interesting. Well, gold and silver retain their purchasing power. It may denominate differently if there's a monetary reset, but you're still going to have the same amount of purchasing power via other commodities.
Starting point is 02:00:34 And I think you will see that shift eventually, where we, you know, the same thing with like the price of Bitcoin or the gold silver ratio or, you know, you might start looking at commodities versus the ratio of. of other commodities instead of dollars perhaps you'll always be denominated in some currency but that's a good question like what actually happens you shouldn't worry about it too much though because uh the historical purchasing power of gold that's right stays pretty constant you could uh you could denominate it in uh as we've talked about in the past a custom suit you know custom suit a century ago how much gold they take about the same amount that does today
Starting point is 02:01:17 crude oil, you know, groceries, these are things that you can look and it's, gold's been pretty stable that way. And it's outpaced, you know, S&P 500 in so many areas. There's, there's other metrics that gold has done better than. But go back to 1971, gold was $35 an ounce. And now we're at close to $3,700 an ounce. And so, you know, that's the, that's the move that's been made. And there's a hundred thousand more tons of gold since 1990 than there was at the time in 1971. So gold is still retained a massive amount of purchasing power. Yes, yes.
Starting point is 02:01:56 For the level of the road has a question for you, Tony. Will Goldbacks be in the lone wolf packages anymore? As he looked into silverbacks at all? So I would have tipped on Rumble. He said I would have tipped on Rumble, but for some reason, chat isn't working for me there. So he's on kick. Just if anybody's having problems with Rumble,
Starting point is 02:02:16 you can get on to kick. So what about that? What about goldbacks and silverbacks? The silverbacks are only made by a couple of different companies. We are looking at that. I'd love to make them myself. That's one thing I'd love to do silverbacks. And that's maybe with the new bank location that we've got with a little bit of more extra,
Starting point is 02:02:34 the room that we've got in Denison. They've got some probability we can do some refining and other things. We may do that or have them custom mates. I like the silverback idea. Goldbacks and loan wolves are generally the staple. That's what we do. but sometimes supply gets a little short and we still got to send the packages out
Starting point is 02:02:51 so if we've had delays we don't like to keep somebody's package so we'll just use something else in place of it but normally goldbacks are put into the lone wolves and the warrior wolves with the 125 because we can't give you any gold bullion at those prices we put goldbacks in that's generally the rule but I try to keep it from that from happening
Starting point is 02:03:14 but sometimes it's just shipping delays and cash flow delays with gold back. Well, I think silverbacks would be a great combination with your banking building this thing. You should do that. I just don't understand how you'd get an entire gorilla in one of those packages. That seems a little unreasonable.
Starting point is 02:03:30 That's what your image should be, a gorilla on their silver bag, that would be a good, silverback. Yeah, that would be a good one. We need our wolf backs, you know, where I make my wise wolf stuff. but something like that. That's a great idea.
Starting point is 02:03:47 Anything that is, you know, backed by the metal, you know, that you can weigh and verify that goldbacks and anything like silverbacks are really. That's good. Yeah, B. L. Houghton says you can't buy friends, but you can buy memberships, I guess. Wolfpack, that's great. Let's see. Star Barkley says silver has doubled since I bought it in 2011 all in this year. Yeah, that's interesting.
Starting point is 02:04:14 you know, watch out for what's going to happen in the future because none of the fundamentals have changed. You know, I think you see gold stabilize after big runs, like we saw. We had a big run a year ago. And we just had another one that's happened right now. I don't know if it's finished or not. Who knows? But it'll kind of, because of psychology in the market, it'll kind of level off and then
Starting point is 02:04:34 pick up again because the fundamentals have not changed. Naiso Storm says, yeah, one of the stocks I still own is a silver mining company. And it is also doubled in value. I tried that years ago, some of the mining companies, and most of the stocks were like in Canadian exchange. And the fees for buying these stocks, as well as the exchange going into foreign currency and then coming back out of it, by the time you added up all that and the higher fees of dealing with these brokerage firms in Canada, couldn't make any profit off of it. You know, it looked really good on paper, but I couldn't make any profit off of it. So, Guard Goldsmith, said, I watched silver rise 68% since I started with the Wolfpack. That's a pretty good return on investment, isn't it?
Starting point is 02:05:28 Not too bad. Yeah, I'm glad to see that. Let's see. Trying to find one here. I was looking at, you move the comment, where do we leave off there? I think that was all the comments regarding. Wolfpack. Was that it?
Starting point is 02:05:44 Yeah, okay. Yeah, I think that's all the comments that we had there. Tell us what's going on with Wolfpack, besides the new building and the idea, which I think it would be a really interesting one for you to do your own Wolfpack silverbacks. Yeah, I thought about, you know, eventually getting some refining equipment and anything that I buy, like the sterling silver or the scrap or the scrap gold and just purifying, melting it down, and getting my own stamp and doing some bullion. That may be eventually on the table on a limited basis.
Starting point is 02:06:16 So we'll see. That's the future. I mean, we're just kind of preparing for that. Every story is just reminding me every day that I read that there's de-dollarization, the monetary system is being reset. The future is commodities. The future is decentralized in some way. The future, again, for us, is decentralized.
Starting point is 02:06:36 But the push for the stable coins and other things, and we'll have to keep an eye on that, on that push for centralization and control. So I'm just building an infrastructure day by day. Just keep it running, keep it steady. I would say I've got some deals just for David Knight listeners. I might talk about it on my show. So if you're hearing my voice and you're interested in silver at the price of spot,
Starting point is 02:07:04 I've got some constitutional silver. I will. It's first come first, sir. We're just buying so much right now. and Wolfpack can only handle so much. I don't need any more for Wolfpack. So Texas picked up a considerable amount of 90% yesterday, and we'll be selling that.
Starting point is 02:07:21 As long as you pay shipping, I'll sell it at melt. So nobody does that. There's nobody selling silver at melt right now. So that's like premium free as long as you pay shipping. It'd be a mix of, and I'll even throw in some silver dollars in there. I've got silver dollars, half dollars, orders, and dimes. So that's a good way to get just some silver. And it's, you know, we charge a low premium in Wolfpack anyway for constitutional silver.
Starting point is 02:07:49 But that's a good way to get some silver in your hands today. And we can, if you just give us a call, go to David Knight.org, message us or give us a call and talk to myself or Yeka and get you some silver out today at Melt. And silver's down. It's interesting, too. Silver and gold are down. And it's funny to the psychology of markets. It always makes me smile because. You know, they lower interest rates, which, you know, signals the economy is alive.
Starting point is 02:08:14 Again, there's going to be lending and not as much money is going to be held up in bonds or treasuries. And so because the interest rate is lower, so they put it into the market and there's currency creation, which creates inflation. And that means that the dollar will weaken. But gold went down because there's the perception of value out there, you know, that you can get into, you know, leverage whatever is happening because of the easier dollars. it'll be created. So gold and silver go down, even though that's the safe haven for what just happened. And so fun times when that happens. It's almost like, you know, the old adage, buy on rumor and sell on when, you know, sell
Starting point is 02:08:54 when it happens. And so I guess that's what they're looking at. We bought into gold because we thought they're going to lower the interest rates. They did lower the interest rates. So I'd sell it. Is it buy the rumor, sell the news or something like that? Yeah, something like that. I remember it wasn't that long ago, and you're talking about it, how.
Starting point is 02:09:09 It was really strange that it was the only institutions that were buying silver. You know, all the people saying that they've had tremendous increase in value since they bought into silver. And I saw, right around that time, I saw a YouTube video where they went to a metals show. And they were, this one guy was going around interviewing all the people that, all the vendors that were there. And they said, yeah, for some reason, nobody wants to buy silver. We're just accumulating it here. Right. And that was about the time that Guard and all these other people said they were buying into it.
Starting point is 02:09:45 Nobody else really wanted to buy into it except for the institutions. And now look at what has happened. Everybody agreed. The institutions are continuing to buy it. That's the reason the price of it means silver is at a 14-year high. Gold is at all-time highs continues to break all-time highs. And that's the central bank buying governments and institutions themselves. So that's a quandary.
Starting point is 02:10:07 And I know that a lot of people are strapped for cash and other things, but it's funny, I was going through with my accountants. What happened in 2022? Like, you were just, these direct sales are completely, where'd they go? And I'm like, that's a great question. Where did my big direct sales go? We fortunately built Wolfpack, which is regular everyday people. And that keeps the ship afloat because I did like the reverse of these other big, but the big purchases, you just don't see them as often or even the, we should have a steady pace of people just. buying, you know, chunks of silver and gold, which we're just getting started.
Starting point is 02:10:42 I mean, literally the prices of where we're at, especially where silver's going, we're just really getting started. There's not going to be another time. We're like, well, you know, gold at 2000, and I'm going to buy, and it's never coming back. It's not ever going to come back like that. And I think silver, as we mentioned earlier in the broadcast, you know, the governments are picking up and putting silver on the balance sheet, like Russia, that's going to change the game. Because those governments are going to ensure that the prices, that they, they're going to see that those exchange prices reflect the actual value.
Starting point is 02:11:15 When the governments get involved, as opposed to what's happened to us that's held silver for so long and wondering why this is so skewed, I think that's why you're seeing it keep up. It's keeping pace with gold on the gold-silber ratio right now, and I think that will only continue. Yes, yes. As a matter of fact, when we started this, and we talked about that Bank of America analyst, the article about that. They were saying at the very beginning of the article that gold is within striking distance of $3,700 an hour. So it was just like a day or two ago. It's already gone back over that and then dropped down a little bit. But that's how quickly things are moving.
Starting point is 02:11:51 And they're saying, oh, yeah, I might see second quarter of next year, might see $4,000. So, I mean, these are very conservative estimates that they're putting out there. You've got a program that's going to be following this one today, right? Is that correct? That's true, yes, sir. Ardenburn Radio Transmission. We were broadcast on Rumble on the America Unplugged channel at my ex at Tony Arterburn and my YouTube
Starting point is 02:12:13 I can you believe I still have a YouTube That's so weird they haven't found me yet So at Tony Arterburn on YouTube I just did it for fun to see if I could get it But yeah we're stream over there on on YouTube as well And we'll go over some of these same stories A little bit of parapolitics and precious metals Good I've got one more question that just came in here
Starting point is 02:12:32 This is from Dougda-O7 I understand that purchasing gold and silver is a good store of wealth. One of my concerns is that bartering will be difficult, especially with larger pieces of gold and silver. Curious as to what you think, Tony. That's why that pre-1965 silver is just perfect. It's U.S. currency.
Starting point is 02:12:52 It's 90% silver. It's recognizable. You even might get a little bit of coin value. We do so much of that stuff that I know that there's packages I send out, especially for the lone wolves, and I hope you guys will go give us a good review. I put silver dollars in there sometimes, and the loan wolves that I know that are worth more than the lone wolf package. I know that they are.
Starting point is 02:13:10 If I spent more time on them and I just marketed them and put them out, but I try to get speed and whatever I pass on a good value to my customers, I'll do that. So the great bartering capability of that constitutional silver, and we haven't have constitutional wolf. We go to David Knight.orgold, you can see on the list of memberships, there's just a 90% one. That's a great way to have for bartering, like a silver dime. You know, that's over $3 in purchasing power right now, just in the meltable silver alone, not to mention the fact that there's a finite amount of it. It's never coming back.
Starting point is 02:13:46 You can't go back and get a time machine and make, you know, more. So it's worth 30 times at space value now. Yes. Isn't that funny? Yeah. And I would just say this in general, too. If you are somebody who wants to stay out of the system, there's going to be people who also want to stay out of the system. system. So, you know, as the noose closes in on us, it's going to, people are going to
Starting point is 02:14:12 gradually be understanding that they want to be outside of this system. So I think there will be a market. It'll be a black market, perhaps, but there'll be a market, just like there is for drugs. You know, if we say, what happens if they outlaw drugs? We've seen what happened for over 50 years now. We're getting close to 55 years. That's been going on. They're not going to stop a market that people want. So the question is, is there's going to be demand. I think there will be demand because I think a lot of people are not going to want to have to have their transactions scrutinized and canceled before they can happen. I think there will be demand for that out there. Well, Tony, thank you. It's always great talking to you. Appreciate that.
Starting point is 02:14:51 And it's been a great deal for our listeners getting into it. Always feel good about recommending gold and silver. And I think the fundamentals are still there. This is not something that has run its course. Everybody is looking at it and saying it's going to continue. from here because all the things that have pushed it, nothing has changed with any of the fundamental situations with the central banks or the inflation or the borrowing of the debt. None of that has changed. It's only looking like it's going to get worse if you look at all these different fundamentals. So I feel good about recommending that to people and I feel good about recommending you,
Starting point is 02:15:24 Tony, because I've known you for years. Thank you for coming on. Appreciate your support of this program. Thank you very much. It's an honor, sir. Thank you for having. Thank you. All right, folks.
Starting point is 02:15:34 We're going to take a quick break. and we'll be right back. So, I'm gonnae, you know, and the The
Starting point is 02:16:17 Oh, Oh, Oh, and Oh, Oh! And Thank you.
Starting point is 02:16:54 And so, I'm gonnae, you know, and you know I'm I'm going to be the I'm going to be the
Starting point is 02:17:10 I'm going to be. And so, you know, You know, Defendant. the American Dream. You're listening to the David Knight Show. Whether you're feeling like the blues or blue grass, APS Radio has you covered.
Starting point is 02:18:29 Check out a wide variety of channels on our app at APSRadio.com. Welcome back, folks. We've got a lot of comments. I'm going to try to get through them here. It says you can still buy a Civil War Bonesaws on eBay. It says, real Civil War bonesaw to your bugout bag. Yeah. That's a, that's a terrifying piece of gear. Yeah. Yeah, probably, they said there were 60,000 amputations during the Civil War.
Starting point is 02:18:59 That seems kind of low, but I wonder just how many of those people died of infection. Yeah. You know. It was a lot. Yeah. Stonewall Jackson was one of them. Yeah. I remember that quote, you know, when God decreed that the South would lose the Civil War,
Starting point is 02:19:14 He also had a decree that Stonewall Jackson would die. That's right, yeah. Paddy Wax. Yona Annie Wode, sure felt like war was declared on the people with the lockdowns and mandates. I felt that way. I said, you know, if you look at the lockdown, shutting down businesses, I said, that is essentially sanctions. And sanctions have always been a prelude to war, or part of it, an act of war, really. You're trying to starve people to death.
Starting point is 02:19:41 That's what I said in 2020. we've got patty wax plenty of people who would be called maga aren't calling for civil war we group people too easily i've seen a lot of people on the right still saying you know we don't want violence we don't want this you know don't attack people just continue to engage with rhetoric yeah i think if you don't want civil war and you don't want just blindly follow trump i don't think qualify as maga that's what i look at maga is a cult and if you're not calling for the things like shutting down free speech, then you're not real maga. They'd kick you out. Laura Lumer would get you fired if she knew that you were doing that. She would make sure she'd
Starting point is 02:20:24 cancel you. Laura Lumer. Audi M.R. Tennessee got rid of no-knock raids about five years ago, violates due process, violates the Fourth Amendment, and many innocent people have been traumatized and killed by these badged thugs. Well, that's good to know. I didn't know that they've gotten rid of it here. As a matter of fact, I saw a doormat that said, come back with a warrant. And I thought that would be kind of funny for us to have that for our house. But I said, I don't think that would stop the SWAT teams. I'm glad to know that they stopped it five years ago. One of my favorite dormats that I've ever seen. It's from this guy that does comic strips. And he's just got a little sock puppet character on there holding a shotgun. It says, this is my house. And it's my God
Starting point is 02:21:03 given right to make it a tomb for federal agents and thieves. We've got Christian constitutional conservative. I will never call that civil asset forfeiture. It is government seizure of private property. Yeah, yeah. There's nothing civil about it. And you're not forfeiting it. They're stealing it. It really is true. But they come up with their little interesting euphemisms. I wonder what they'll call the war in Venezuela. You know, he had desert storm when it was in Iraq. I wonder what little cute little name they'll come up with for the war with Venezuela. Oh, it'll probably be something really good. They'll probably put AI on it and they'll have it generate a list of 10,000 different names and they'll pick the best one.
Starting point is 02:21:45 Livio Roslow, forgive me for asking David, but why do non-citizens deserve the same rights afforded to Americans? Because we don't want the government to ever be able to do things without due process. They used to understand that. They had, when they created the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, they said, you're not going to surveil anyone who is in America without a search warrant, including foreign citizens. You'll only do that to foreign citizens in foreign countries because in America we're going to be ruled by the rule of law and by the Bill of Rights that demand due process. That used to be the mindset. I think that's the mindset we have to have. Now, of course, they didn't do that with FISA. They used FISA as an excuse as a
Starting point is 02:22:26 beard to do whatever they wished. Basically, they use that FISA court, which is just one judge. They used him to rubber stamp this and to clear them of violating the law and allowed them to do whatever they wish. So they used that as control. But the mindset that was the public that they put out to the public saying that, yes, we will obey the Bill of Rights for all people who are here in America because those rights are human rights. Those rights are there because you are created in the image of God. And the government needs to respect all human beings who are here, you violate the law, that's fine. There can be punishments for that, but let's do it with a due process, and let's not allow the government to do things that we would not want them
Starting point is 02:23:13 to do to American citizens, because if you allow them to do it to foreign citizens in America, it is guaranteed that they will do it to American citizens in America. That's just history has shown that, but we know that's just a progression. And so you have to say that nowhere in America are you going to do this to a human being? That's my belief. And I think that's why it's very important to recognize due process, even when somebody is clearly violating the law as an illegal immigrant would be doing. It's also kind of not quite accurate to, you know, phrase it is,
Starting point is 02:23:49 American rights. It's not like the First Amendment and we're trying to protect someone's free speech. This is a matter of the U.S. government going out and murdering a bunch of random people. without any trial or stopping to see if they are, in fact, drug dealers. That's right. That's right. And that, again, it's not like, you know, the American government can, we haven't declared war. And it's one of the reasons why we don't want to just, you know, when you give the ability, as Trump is claiming he has, if you allow him to have the ability to just instrumentally kill anybody he wishes, because they're foreigners, because he labels them
Starting point is 02:24:28 terrorists or whatever. There's no end to that. That's why you have these international agreements. And once you start moving away from that, and we've already seen way too much of that from World War II on the targeting of civilians for their purpose. Both sides engaged in that in World War II has become standard operating procedure. But we want to go back to the Christian idea of a just war, a justified war. That means that you, somebody has invaded you, and you're fighting to stop that war. You're fighting to drive them out of your territory. And as soon as you drive them out of your territory and you have been able to stop that, you don't continue in terms of punishing them for what they did. You stop it at that point, the same rules that you have when
Starting point is 02:25:19 somebody invade your home. And the goal of the war is peace. It is not absolute total war and total destruction of your enemy. That's the difference in the mindset between a Christian definition of war, which says it's going to be to defend innocent life, and the objective is to return us to a state of peace versus this all-out total war against civilians that is sustained and never-ending, because you just want to rack up a body count. And that's basically the mindset that we've adopted. Also, if rights come from God, then the government has no right to abridge your right no matter who you are, no matter where you're from. You can, you know, the government can potentially grant extra privileges
Starting point is 02:26:02 that they would be doled out to the American citizens, and therefore as a non-citizen, you would not be afforded those. And so, you know, rights come from God, privileges can be granted by the state. They're not American rights. And the whole, the American government, the Bill of Rights, is about telling the American government that there are human rights that come from God, as Travis said. And you are not going to violate those. And so the Bill of Rights correctly understood is a restriction on the American government.
Starting point is 02:26:32 And that would apply to the actions that they take within this country and outside of this country. If we throw that away, we wind up giving the CIA and people that ilk a blank check to do as they wish forever. And that is not in our interest as American citizens. Yeah. So, you know, you have a right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. You don't have a right to live in America. You know, that is a, it's a privilege to live in America. If you're born here, you know, you are automatically granted that privilege, basically, at this point.
Starting point is 02:27:05 You know, we should not extend it to if you make it over the border. But, you know, just you're not free to come here whenever you want from wherever you want at all times forever. You know, that, you know, emigrating to America is a privilege. Not getting bombed and murdered by the American military is a right. That's right. And we just have to worry because. If the government is going to do this to other people, that's a very dangerous precedent, and they will use that precedent against you.
Starting point is 02:27:32 That's the creeping issue of government. Yes, this wasn't a matter of the government not protecting the rights of foreign citizens, but rather the government going out and murdering a foreign citizen. It's a direct action of the government to violate someone's right to life. And Trump actually violated our laws because, there is no law that I'm aware of that has a capital punishment for drug dealers. Some people have suggested that, I don't think they've ever put that on the books. So even under American law, he would not be authorized to execute these people.
Starting point is 02:28:09 If he had stopped and done an investigation and they had shown the evidence that these people are dealing drugs, he still would not have the legal authority to summarily execute them. But he did it without even verifying that. And then he boasted about it. Do we want to let him have that kind of power? I think Trump is the exhibit A of the slippery slope and what we have to be concerned about. Let's do the next one here. We've got Epstein Island.
Starting point is 02:28:35 Epstein Island. Trump said in 2024 that had he won in 2020, he'd have stolen Venezuela's oil. Well, at least he's honest, I guess. You've got to take the oil. Remember he said that about what Syria or something like that? Star Barclay, IDF soldiers are suffering PTSD and are protesting not getting out of adequate medical treatment. Well, I, uh, that's another thing that happens when we have these wars.
Starting point is 02:28:59 That's another part of wars that are, uh, really not justified. You know, if you have, it's bad enough if you're in a battle and, um, and your friends around you are getting blown to bits and, you know, maybe you've been shot or injured or whatever. That's enough, uh, in and of itself. But it only compounds it when you believe that your cause is not justified. That is correct. I also want to say just, yeah, I'm sorry murdering children has weighed heavy on your conscience,
Starting point is 02:29:30 but they can't compel you to pull the trigger. That's right. You could choose not to. You could say, I refuse to do this anymore. I refuse to serve. There are members, you know, there are Jews in Israel who say, I'll take the prison sentence. I don't care. I'm not going to do this for you.
Starting point is 02:29:44 Some who have done it and then, you know, they had a short tour and now they're not there and they don't want to go back. They said, I'll take jail before I go back. And, you know, maybe he didn't realize what he was getting into when he signed up. Maybe there's propaganda surrounding it. They don't show you what you're really going to be doing. But once you're there and you've seen it, you have the obligation to say, no, I will not do that. So if you continue to do that, I'm sorry, I don't have any sympathy.
Starting point is 02:30:10 Boo-hoo. I'm, you know. Yeah, it was kind of shocking. There's that story of the IDF soldier talking about his experience, he's saying, I had to shoot, you know, 50, 60 times a day, killed a lot of children. and the officers are just saying, more, more, kill them more. It's like, okay, well, at some point, you kind of are responsible. I mean, you're responsible every time you pull the trigger, obviously. At what point are you going to push back on that when you're having to kill children every day?
Starting point is 02:30:44 It's shocking. There was a commercial that ran when I was in high school about the Vietnam War, and it was, you know, what if they had a war and nobody came? was that today he didn't show up to fight it for them right because war is when the government told you who the enemy is revolutions when you figure out
Starting point is 02:31:02 for yourself Francine who will be able to live in Gaza after it's all done Trump and Kushner it's like that New Burger AI thing where he was talking about his new golf course there in the Trump towers
Starting point is 02:31:16 way more than 18 holes he said you're going to be the biggest the best golf course we've got nice Christian constitutional conservative nuclear weapons were used once by the USA. Why? Because the USA was the only one who had them. That's right. They were only let off the chain when we were the only ones that had them. When there was nobody that could retaliate. As soon as people were able to, we need to stop this proliferation. Don't you think it's gone far enough? Yeah, of course it was Truman, the same guy who gave us a national security state, the NSA, the CIA, all this stuff. Propaganda. That comment was posted when you were saying that the Second Amendment is essentially a sort of mutually assured destruction with the government.
Starting point is 02:31:57 Yes, yes. If you take away that. I know. Yeah, firearms keep the peace, and they are deterrent to evils of the founders, right? Yeah, you can see that, as I pointed out, just with how gleeful these leftists are about the murder of Charlie Kirk. If the Second Amendment was not in place, you can only imagine what they would be getting up to. So it's a restraint on the federal government, and it's a restraint on the, lunatics that, you know, fill up the left. So it's a restraining force on all of these things.
Starting point is 02:32:29 So it is truly what defends all the other rights. Knights of the Storm, Alex will get his audience to push a civil war. Then he will tuck tail and hide when the bullets start flying. He tucks tail on January 6th. Yeah, he went across the town to the Supreme Court. Yeah, he scuttled off. But Sam got caught. Yeah. Sam was doing the only one doing any reporting. Yeah, he was doing real journalism. Him and Big. were. Yeah. Then Alex fired Sam. But anyway. B.L. Houghton, we read that one. It says, you know, Patty Wax. If you have a Rumble membership, do you stop getting the ads? I don't know. I don't have a Rumble membership, so I can't tell you. I wish I could. I think he's talking
Starting point is 02:33:12 about subscriptions. And yeah, I believe that's the point of them is that you give someone a subscription and they don't get ads anymore. Okay. Well, that would be good. That's the answer for you. We're not able to confirm that, but that seems likely that is what getting a YouTube premium membership does, a good sort of ads. And we don't have anything to do with the ads. That's automatically served.
Starting point is 02:33:37 They use that to pay to fund the Rumble platform. They don't pay us for that. Video hosting, and it's remarkably expensive. So they have to generate revenue somehow. I understand that it's really annoying. Ads on Rumble aggravate. me as well, but video hosting is monumentally expensive. YouTube was unprofitable for years upon years upon years, and the only reason they survived is because they had the backing of Google,
Starting point is 02:34:03 an infinite, you know, pocketbook. They had the backing of the government as well. But yeah, it's just, remember back to the days of TV, it's not quite as bad as that. I think TV was a lot worse. I remember TV, if you watch a movie, right, they would take, you know, they would cut parts the movie out so they could get it to fit evenly in their two-hour segment with their commercials. And they would run it for like the way their clock was set up. They would maybe you wouldn't have a first commercial for like 30 minutes. You know, the beginning of the movie, they would go for long stretches to get you involved. They get you hooked.
Starting point is 02:34:39 Yeah. And then now that you're getting towards the end of the movie and you're really involved in it, you want to see how this thing is going to end. Then the commercials start coming fast and furious. Every five minutes. You've got to stick through them in order to find out. out of the movie ends. You're not going to bail at the last minute, are you?
Starting point is 02:34:56 Christian Constitution. Before we move on, just to clarify, I was saying that, you know, Beale Houghton was gifting subs earlier. If you gift a sub, the person that receives it will no longer have ads without any ad block or anything. Yeah. Christian Constitutional Conservative. It's a pincer attack.
Starting point is 02:35:11 Team blue from the left, team red from the right. Yeah. Well, that's how you remember it. You know, red for right and blue for left. Epstein Island, blue to the left, red to the right, and we're all stuck in the middle. and I don't know what it is we should do Knights of the Storm I looked into refining equipment to recycle
Starting point is 02:35:27 all my old electronics I've been hoarding but the chemicals are really nasty to deal with and to get rid of. They put all kinds of nasty stuff in these things Remember we used to watch Will It Blend? Yeah, don't breathe this. Yeah, this guy to sell his blender which was really industrial strength
Starting point is 02:35:46 or whatever, he had a series I think on YouTube or something. I used to watch when the kids were young and he would throw kinds of stuff in there. Blend tech. Yeah, we're going to go to the movies. So let's throw in some popcorn and let's throw in a hot dog and let's throw in some Coke and we'll just keep it in the can, you know, we'll put it in there.
Starting point is 02:36:03 He blends the can and all the rest of the stuff. And when a new model of the iPhone came out, he said, let's see if the iPhone blends. And he basically atomized it. Yeah, and he had some, really, he said, ooh, that's nasty smelling stuff. iPhone smoke. Don't breathe that iPhone smoke. Yeah, there's a lot of nasty. nasty stuff in electronics when you blend it, yeah.
Starting point is 02:36:24 And then we've got Doug D007. I understand that purchasing gold and silver is good for a restored bit of wealth. One of my concerns is that bartering, oh, I already read that one. Steve, Steve Evs, yesterday's Wolfpack shipment value is 57, and the cost was $50. So, yeah, you're getting extra value there. Yeah, that's what Tony was saying. You just kind of rounds it up, you know, but, yeah. Yeah, the real octo spook.
Starting point is 02:36:46 Cut large coins into pieces, like pieces of eight. That's right. You can be a pirate. nights of the storm when people understand that metals are not an investment but a storage medium then they finally figure out the monetary system that's right metals go up because the dollar goes down that's right their store value as jason points out epstein island shelley a is responding shelley a the vaccine passports were like a prequel to the mark of the beast exactly what they were the real octo spook we need to create laws preventing government from owning robot slash automaton
Starting point is 02:37:15 and only we the people own them and use them to provide our government and goods products food, et cetera, which we need. If government owns them, they will just be robots of our enslavement. Then Epstein Island says Operation Steel, the Oil. That's a catchy name. Maybe a little on the nose, but it gets to the heart of it all. It should be something that spells out oops. O-O-O-P-S or something. Or you say, Lance? I was just saying you're saying it had Desert Storm, we need a new one, so Operation Steel. Jungle Storm. That's right. Yeah, going back to the vaccine passports being a prequel to the Mark is a prequel to all digital passports and permission society. And, of course, the stimulus check that everybody loved so much, that was a prequel to
Starting point is 02:37:58 universal basic income. It was all a dry run rehearsal. I mean, they practiced this stuff, folks, for 20 years, beginning three months before 9-11. And the 2020 stuff was just the next levels, a beta test, if you will. real quickly we had someone email in ask about a book I had talked about I've compiled the list of all the books I remember talking about on the show I don't know exactly which one it was but you know you can go in and check these out for yourself see if one of them was it we don't have the email in front of us about who it was so apologize for that but if you're listening the books I've talked about are Dr. Universalis it's a very short novella it's by Gaston Narval it's a sort of medieval crusade sort of thing guys go on a quest of find a holy relic. Again, I don't believe in holy relics, but it's an interesting premise, you know, it's a good premise for a story. It has a really nice ending. Dr. Universalist by Gaston Nerval. There's the Franklin Savings and Loan scandal by John W. Camp. Again, it goes
Starting point is 02:38:58 into the Franklin Savings and Loan scandal, as one might expect, where these guys were caught again providing drugs and children to powerful people. There's aberrations in the heartland of the reel by Windy S. painting, which is about the life of Oklahoma City Bomber, Timothy McVeigh, and the weird things that went on with him. It's like, like 700 pages long. It is a massive book. I haven't gotten very far into it because I just don't have time. And, you know, it catalogs his life. It's probably the definitive tome on Timothy McVeigh. Like, war in peace. Yeah. I don't think there's anything that even comes close to detailing his life. So if you're looking for something that's interesting, it's a very interesting read, but it is very, very large.
Starting point is 02:39:40 Again, that's aberrations in the heartland of the reel by Wendy S painting. Then I've also talked about the Storm of Steel by Ernst Junger. It's about, it's the diary of Ernst Junger, and he was in World War I, and it talks about his experience during the war and what he saw and, you know, how he felt about it. And it's very interesting because he's a very, very military-minded guy, and there's almost, you know, when he's commenting on it later in life, there's almost a sort of wistfulness for the horrors of the war. So he's a very interesting guy. And then there's chaos by Tom O'Neill, which is a book about Charles Manson and the potential involvement with you know, M.K. Ultra and the CIA and Dr. Jolly West, but it also, you know, that's a smaller
Starting point is 02:40:19 portion of the book. It's largely just about the very strange things that happened around that investigation. You mentioned that World War I book. That reminds me of a quote from Robert Lee. He said, it's good that war is so horrible or we would grow too fond of it. Ernst Junger was fond of it anyway. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, you know, you can look at the Civil War and it is fascinating from the standpoint of the battles and what was happening with it. But again, when you get up close to it, like we were talking about in this article earlier today, and the horror of it, and to imagine what it was actually like, it is truly horrible. But, yeah, especially the Civil War, it's very, very interesting.
Starting point is 02:41:06 I mean, even to the extent that the war began and ended on the same farmer's property, even though it began in Manassas, and there was a second Manassas that was there. The union called it the Battle of Bull Run. So both of those were on the sky's farm, and he said, that's it, I'm getting out of here. Because in that war, the two capitals of Richmond and D.C. were only 100 miles apart. And so, unfortunately, he was in the middle of it. So he moved, bought a farm out at Appomattox, and they wound up ending the war and having Lee surrender to Grant there at Appomatics.
Starting point is 02:41:43 So it all began and ended on this one guy's farm. It's very much like the characters keep coming back over and over again. You see that Stonewall Jackson, as well as Robert Lee, were there at Harper's Ferry arresting John Brown, one of the seminal events of the Civil War. And so it is like a, I look at it, it's kind of like a real version of a real version of a. Dickens novel where everybody is related to everybody else in some way. And these characters keep popping back up. Same characters keep coming back. But it's also interesting in terms of the actual warfare aspect of it.
Starting point is 02:42:16 But it truly was a horrific thing. We do not want to repeat that. Well, that is all of the books that I have covered on the show. Got a couple comments. And then we're going to start talking about meta. Defy Tyrant 1776. It says Trump's warp speed poison has killed millions. Biggest drug dealer in America.
Starting point is 02:42:35 yeah we're not suggesting that we're not implying anything preemptively but when we look at drugs i mean it's the CIA that uh the biggest drug dealer but you know if you include uh things like the pharmaceutical poisons like that it uh yeah truly is we don't want to go down the route of Mario or what Luigi Luigi Luigi that's it Mario high boost says the 2A is holding the entire world together by a string at this point very realistically yeah yeah brian den McCartney says we should start a book club yeah i enjoy a lot of books i do really enjoy reading yeah and oh and 61 i see here says don't let jolly west give your
Starting point is 02:43:17 lsd you shouldn't well let's take a look at uh there's a new generation of meta glasses that's being hawked by zookerberg and you know when you look at this it's like when you see him I'm putting these glasses on, it instantly reminded me of somebody else that's been in the news recently. That's right. These people licking, why would, why is it that the left likes these large, dark cornroom glasses? Do they like the Michael Cain, uh, Ipchris file?
Starting point is 02:43:52 So I think it has to do with, you know, glasses make me look smart. Big glasses, big smart. Except when you superimpose the chart of what happened to Cracker Barrel's stock over those glasses. But here is Zuckerberg talking about his Zook glasses. About a decade ago, I started putting together a team with the best people in the world. Yeah, the best people in the world. To build these glasses.
Starting point is 02:44:17 You really want these things, right? The requirements are actually pretty simple. But the technical challenges to make them are insane. The simple applies to include style. They need to be glasses. They're not a headset. No wires. less than 100 grams.
Starting point is 02:44:35 They need wide field of view, holographic displays, sharp enough to pick up details. And you've got to have those really heavy frames. Right enough to see in different lighting conditions, large enough to display a cinema screen or multiple monitors for working wherever you go, whether you're in a coffee shop or on a plane or wherever you are. And you need to be able to see through them.
Starting point is 02:45:05 And people need to be able to see through them too and make eye contact with you. You always need to be able to see through the technology. This is the physical world with holograms overlaid on it. So if someone messages you, you will see that. And instead of having to pull out your phone, there will just be a little hologram and with a few subtle gestures. so you can reply without getting pulled away from the moment. Do you be any less enthusiastic? This is putting me to sleep.
Starting point is 02:45:35 Or if you want to be with someone who is far away, they're going to be able to teleport as a hologram into your living room, as if they're right there with you, you're going to be able to tap your fingers and bring up a game of cards or chess or holographic ping pong or whatever it is that you want to do together. You can work or play or whatever. Boy, I've got to have this.
Starting point is 02:45:58 And all it will cost you is that. 24-7 surveillance of you and everyone you love, your house, your floor plan, your entire life. You know, as he's laying out all these technical challenges that he's doing and how they overcame them, evidently. What came to mind is that quote from Jurassic Park, just because you could do something doesn't necessarily mean that you should do it. You know, again, the Cracker Barrel CEO effect. So I don't know. Now he's trying to make it a little bit cooler. They're adding Oakley sunglasses and stuff. So it's not simply. the dark, heavy frames that are there.
Starting point is 02:46:34 But, yeah, the smart glasses, he says, it's going to be a pathway to superintelligence in your life. It's like, yeah, that's exactly why I would avoid these things like the plague and avoid anybody who has them on their head like the plague. He sees the glasses as the main way that we're going to integrate superintelligence, meaning AI, into our day-to-day lives. smart glasses are a nascent market with a potential to become, if not the, then at least one computing platform of reference for the coming decades.
Starting point is 02:47:10 And that was attributed to a bullish HSBC analyst. I think they must spell that word bullish. They left out the T and they got the... They probably meant something else. Yeah, I think that is. B.S. analysis there. More technological progress may be required before the glasses can compete where the functionalities are currently offered by smartphones, even as people are starting to wake up to smartphones and realize they don't want them in their life. Well, they say it's going to be
Starting point is 02:47:44 somewhere around $800. So, you know, grab your wallet before they run out of them, I guess. And there was also the story. It kind of reminds me of a map you looked at up 623, it's saying, or 22 is the eyes are the lamp of the body and if your eyes are healthy, your whole body will be full of light, but if the light you
Starting point is 02:48:09 think you have is actually darkness, then how great is that darkness? That's right. That's right. Well, there was a story that came up on Wired one vigilante that torched 22 cell towers. And the
Starting point is 02:48:26 interesting thing about this article is how they use it as a cautionary tale that you shouldn't, that this guy was weaponized. So this is Wired Magazine, which really has a, I guess you could say that they're part of the establishment media. They do push the agendas that the government wants to push.
Starting point is 02:48:45 So this whole story about this guy, who basically was somebody who was never successful, he had been to prison several times, and he started to get his life back together again with a girlfriend and a job and things like that and then 2020 hit with a lockdown. And he lost all that and he had a lot of spare time in his hands. So he, this is a story from Wired Magazine
Starting point is 02:49:14 where they're portraying this as somebody who was weaponized by conspiracy theories online. Because like, you know, don't forget that it's not just the Republicans who are pushing, saying that we've got to shut down speech that is dangerous. This has always been the agenda of the left, and they're not getting rid of that agenda. They are just being joined in it now by the GOP as well.
Starting point is 02:49:40 They say Smith's actions highlight the dangers of misinformation and the importance of critical thinking and fact-checking information before sharing it. But, of course, they want you to believe, if we were to go through this whole article, I won't bore you with all the details, but they want you to believe all the official's story about 5G and about COVID and all the rest of this stuff. Inside the mind of the most prolific anti-5G arsonists in the world and the incoherent, very online political violence of our era.
Starting point is 02:50:16 Again, this writer for Wired Magazine, this leftist writer wants to tell you that speech is violence. and that the internet is violence. It's not. Censorship, really, is hate. They're not getting rid of hate speech. What they're doing is they're acting in hatred against speech. And they're making peaceful change impossible, which will result in violence. But in this article, they call out David Ike, Joe Rogan, Alex Jones, Eddie Bravo,
Starting point is 02:50:50 because of things that they were saying about 5G. but I think that 5G really is a health issue. It really is a privacy issue. You know, when before the pandemic was thrust upon us, remember Trump was saying we can't have Chinese electronics companies supplying the electronics that run our 5G system. We've got to have 5G. Well, why do we have to have 5G? Well, we need the bandwidth. What are you going to do with the bandwidth? They're going to use it for real time analysis of you. view, real-time biometric analysis of you, real-time data tracking of you, geospatial intelligence and all the rest of this stuff. And he, you know, the question I mentioned this
Starting point is 02:51:34 when he was pushing it so hard in 2019, it's like, okay, so you don't want the Chinese doing this. I said, they want to tell us that it's a conspiracy theory that they're going to use 5G to surveil us and to learn everything about us, because we don't want the Chinese seeing that. But at the same time, they're admitting that that's not a conspiracy theory. And they're telling you that they want to be the ones who are going to be doing all this stuff that is so bad. You just don't want the Chinese government doing it. I feel less threatened, frankly, by the Chinese government than I do by my own government. The Chinese government is much, much, much further away from us than Washington is.
Starting point is 02:52:14 So anyway, did you want to read some of the comments here before? Yeah, we've got plenty of comments here. We've got little time to do it in. nights of the storm, we're planning to see J.P. Rumble says it was the I was the first cycle to go through basic training when they forced all the soldiers to get an account for direct deposit.
Starting point is 02:52:30 CBDC will be the same. We'll start with the government and work its way out. Also, probably things like EBT and that sort of thing. People that rely on the government in any sort of capacity for their livelihood, they're just going to force you. Well, that's the way they've already done it in India.
Starting point is 02:52:46 You know, Bill Gates went over there to help them set up their ID system. They called the odd heart system. And what they did was they went in with poor people who were on welfare and getting medical care. They said, you're not going to get any money from the government that you're depending on. And you're not going to get any health care unless you take the number and unless you get into our odd heart system. That was Bill Gates who set it up with the Indian government. Same system. They will use the people who are gaining the money from them. And of course, they will put the pressure, just as we saw with the vaccine mandate, so put the pressure on private
Starting point is 02:53:20 employers who are getting government money. And so when you look at all the people who are getting paid by the government who are getting welfare or who work for the government or corporations who are dependent on government contracts in order to stay in business, that's pretty much almost everybody. Yeah, they're going to roll it out that way. Yeah. And, of course, you know, companies are going to want to be able to accept these things because they do a lot of business through EBT.
Starting point is 02:53:44 Places like grocery stores, gas stations, they're going to be accepting it for sure. Nights of the Storm, CBDC will be forced on government employees, then on to anyone on government assistance. Hey, like I was saying, then on the rest of us. Yeah, it's going to roll that to there. Remember, when people on food stamps got actual stamps now, it's a snap card all digital. Yeah. We're on the same page there. Epstein Island, why does Zuckerberg sound like Bill Gates?
Starting point is 02:54:08 Because he's from the same type of person. They're both these ruthless, wretched nerds that never should have been given power, but somehow, wield it truly a condemnation of our times and of our people our people perhaps epstein island why does suck i already read that one dog did up below seven his shirt is one size too big well that's fashion maybe maybe his body is one size too small oversized shirts are in tunnel lord 1337 they're just trying to make the surveillance state equipment look fashionable well boy have they failed they got to give it to somebody else back to the drawing board yeah that reminds me of you know when Dean came and rolled out the Segway, and he had a lot of Silicon Valley CEOs like
Starting point is 02:54:54 Steve Jobs, Larry Ellison, others, he wanted to show it to them before he made it public and get their feedback. Steve Jobs told him, he says, first of all, this looks stupid. It's an amazing piece of equipment, but you need to make it look cool. And the second thing he said was, and you're going to have, if you roll this thing out, instead of in a controlled way, if you do it all at once, you're going to have some high-profile idiots. have a crash on it and it's going to make it a laughing stock. Turned out that that actually happened. And the idiot was George W. Bush who crashed on this segue.
Starting point is 02:55:29 Of course, they fixed it after that. That was before Karen and I rode segways all over Chicago in a tour that we were up there. But they changed it. When they first did it, you know, it was some kind of a different control with the handlebars. By the time we did, you just leaned in one direction or the other and it would pick that up. Yeah. It was basically just thought-based
Starting point is 02:55:53 because your body sort of goes in the way you're thinking. Yeah. We've got Tunnel Lord. Nope. Brian Deb McCartney, we have May Mobility driverless cars in our small town. They're everywhere with their cameras. It is like Google cars on the streets eternally. That's a nightmare.
Starting point is 02:56:09 Many mobility. I've never heard of that. Or maybe it was many mobility. Maybe. I don't know. I have to look it up. Yeah. I'll have to
Starting point is 02:56:18 Google that Tony Ty, 06 The only smart thing I like is that smart car that had a V8 swap It's basically like a I've not seen that, yeah It's like putting a V8 in a hot wheels car At that point, basically
Starting point is 02:56:33 Shelley A, a bunch of guys in London are cutting down phased array cameras and 5G towers The British can get a little rowdy Sometimes when they need to Good for them Yeah, stuff about the Blade Runner protests that they have over there of the people cutting down those cameras is seeming to really work for them. They are doing it so widespread.
Starting point is 02:56:57 I think it's slowed down or stopped the rollout of them. I am not sure I'd have to look that up. It might have just been people optimistic, but there's a pretty widespread resistance against that with people attacking and destroying these cameras. Yeah, there's a lot of resistance, too, on these limited. when they started closing off roads and putting up barriers so that people had to drive in circles and stuff around Oxford, they started removing those barriers as well. They will push back on things more than Americans do. It's also hopeful because it shows that once you get a large enough coalition, if you have enough people involved in it, the government is almost forced to
Starting point is 02:57:35 back off. They cannot arrest you all. It makes people too upset. If you get enough people together, the government is forced to bow down. I think a lot of the people that would be the types to protest and do that sort of thing have been pacified by the Maga movement and just trust the plan and hoping that Trump hasn't all taken care of. Yeah, that's right. Yeah. In the UK, they have absolutely no hope with the local parties out of there. And I would say that includes even the Reform Party. If you look at the moves that Nigel Farage has been making lately, I don't see any hope coming from that sector either. But certainly, the conservatives have been fully on board with the deindustrialization and subversion through
Starting point is 02:58:16 massive migration of the UK, no doubt about it. Which, I mean, we've said this before, but, you know, the UK, Canada, those countries tend to be about 10, 15, maybe 20 years ahead of the United States in some areas, but as they go, eventually so goes the United States. Well, you know, in terms of asymmetric warfare, I remember when we were investigating the militarization of policing and things like that and what Obama was doing in terms of putting these MRAPs and small communities and Biggs and I went to that asymmetric warfare center at AP Hill and when I started looking at it and found the meetings
Starting point is 02:58:57 and they had them posted on YouTube it just nobody ever watched them you know I'd been up there for like 10 years and they'd had 300 views or something like that but these I set through these dry presentations and these military leaders, U.S. military leaders are saying, you know, when you hear them say people are not radicalized by their religion, you know, usually you just kind of dismiss that as, well, they're trying to be apologists for Islam, by the Islamification. And yet what they were saying was what radicalized people they see over and over again. Typically these are people who were in the mid-30s. They were successful. They might have had technical background and a wealthy family, upper middle class.
Starting point is 02:59:39 But what got them was they had a situation where they realized that they had absolutely no control over their future. And that was when they started becoming terrorists. And after they got become terrorists, then they started looking for religious backup. But that's not what we do. As Christians, we understand that even if we don't have any power in our future, holds the future and we don't need to get desperate like that thank you so much for joining us have a great weekend they created common core and dumb down our children
Starting point is 03:00:26 they created common past track and control us their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing and the communist future. They see the common man is simple, unsophisticated, ordinary. But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God. That is what we have in common. That is what they want to take away. Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation. They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything.
Starting point is 03:01:02 from us. It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide. Please share the information and links you'll find at the Davidnightshow.com.
