of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act it's the david night show as a clock strikes 13 it's thursday the sixth of august year of our lord two thousand twenty six well today we're going to take a look again at the rapidly metastasizing cancer of surveillance it is a turbo cancer it is very similar to the m rna in that regard and the stealth and the deception that is happening we're moving to the next stage. Forget about the cameras on polls. They're rapidly moving to surveillance via drones. Yeah, this is rapidly spreading in the area in which I live,

and we're going to talk about some specifics about that. And the tactics that they're using, folks, are not just here in rural Tennessee. This is rolling out everywhere across the country. So we're going to take a look at that as well as, speaking of cancer and vaccines, Trump's pro-vaccine, pro-MRNA nominee for CDC was just approved by the GOP. And we're going to take a look at the rapid expansion of taking away the

the exemptions, religious exemptions for children to attend school, whether we're talking about the Amish in New York or whether we're talking about other school children in West Virginia. they are taking away informed consent with the rest of our liberty. Well, let's begin with the, some, the, the comical lies that are told by these people who are in power. Of course, we have, well, we're going to talk first about, Darlene Graham, who has decided, much of the consternation of the people who were in the South Carolina at the European establishment,

she decided that she would get into the regular election. And so they've had to do a primary for that now. They've already had a primary. They already had a nominee. But they've got to do this again and do it just for this person that Trump appointed. And they're very upset about that within the GOP. So she starts out in second place, even though he appointed her to finish the term of her brother, Lindsay, who died. And so they had a debate about this.

and she was asked about the surveillance issue and the data centers and the flock cameras. And basically, she said, just kind of get over it. It's not really a problem. Listen to this. I do agree with him. We can't let China get ahead in this technology competition. They can't control AI. They can't control technology.

I think we need to build data centers here. You can't control it. That's the problem. I think the tech company should build the power plants to supply the data centers because that way it doesn't drive up utility cost for the average American or the average South Carolina. Now, you know, the Democrats, they don't want the data centers because, you know, why? Because they don't like the noise of the data centers. But we have to remain competitive against China.

That's just a fact. So you don't like the noise? Well, vote Democrat. And of course, she agreed with the person who was before it because, hey, we got to stop China, right? It's all about China. And, of course, I played for this for you yesterday. This is actually, this is not an AI thing that I did. This is Marsha Blackburn showing her stupid all by herself.

How hard am I going to crack down on China? Well, there's a clue. Marsha Black. I'm going to rip up some fortune cookies. We're going to pay a fortune to the surveillance companies. As governor, Marsha will fight to protect Tennessee land from Chinese front companies. close who pulls and hunt down every communist who tries to defies us. It doesn't take a fortune cookie to figure it out.

Here in Tennessee, we're going to stop communist China and protect Tennessee land. Oh, she's a smart cookie, isn't she? Yeah. Well, we are going to have a misfortune of having her as a governor, I'm sure. But it's not quite clear that Darlene is going to make it past the post. There will at least probably be a runoff. As I said, she is in second place, and there are several candidates that have double digits. Nobody is really very high.

The highest ranking guy in the polls is at 22%. This is Congressman Ralph Norman, who is out of South Carolina and has been in Congress since 2017. So he's been there for nearly a decade. He was in state legislature for 11 years before that. Of course, Darlene has never held it. any elected office, she's just had whatever rubbed off on her from Lindsay Graham. And that's a big negative for her. And so as a result, when they look at this and they did the polls, one of the things they found

was that only 4% of the people who are likely to vote in the South Carolina primary want foreign policy to be the number one issue. So how did Lindsay Graham keep getting reelected over and over again? And so she has noted that. and she made a statement she said well Lindsay was more focused on national security I know that's important but I'll probably be focused on affordability

what matters to families two struggling families there you go she'll probably be more focused on it that's kind of a weak promise isn't it and of course do you really believe that do you think that if she gets in office she's going to be putty in the hands of fake

Israel and the military industrial complex of course she is. So these 4% of the people who want that, they may want to take a look, even if you're interested in foreign policy. He had a bad foreign policy. As a matter of fact, we had Trump melting down at Camp David

when he finally realized, hey, we are out of missiles, as everybody's been saying. I mean, there's been report, after report, after report, for quite some time. And he just evidently got the memo as they were at Camp David, and he went crazy.

on War Pete. I thought we had that fixed. You know, I've been telling everybody we had these missiles, just making it up. And so going back to Marsha Blackburn, she says that the Senate has the votes to confirm Todd Blanche. And at the same time, she's complaining about the fact that she and other senators

and maybe even their families were illegally surveilled by Jack Smith. It's like, wait a minute. This is the lady who wants to put in all the flock cameras and the data centers, and she's worried because somebody was looking at her family and her life, when she hadn't done anything wrong, right? It will be weaponized politically, and I've said this for the longest time. These politicians who despise the Bill of Rights, who do everything they can to subvert it,

don't realize they'll be the first ones up against the wall. And they will be. They are the interesting people. They will come for them first. And so she goes from laying the groundwork for surveillance state to supporting the crook who set up the Trump slush fund and a $100 million get out of jail and fines agreement for Trump. So she wants to put in this Epstein crony. Look at the fact that we just had these Epstein victims finally got him to agree to meet with them. They'd been pushing this for many, many months.

I wonder who pushed him to go meet with Galane Maxwell. He went to meet her in prison, spends the day with her. The next thing, you know, she's transferred to club fed, a minimum security resort. But he doesn't want to talk to the victims at all. And when he finally does talk to the victims, they all come out and said, well, he was really petulant. He was condescending. He, you know, so exactly what do you want? What is the problem here, he's saying, you know?

That's the guy that Marsha Blackburn wants as a permanent attorney general. Isn't that amazing? And so then you go from that to the surveillance issue. She said, investigations have recovered additional evidence that could support a potential criminal charge against former special prosecutor or special counsel, Jack Smith. Yeah, don't surveil me, surveil other people. Hey, Marcia, if you've done nothing wrong, what are you worried about, right? Who needs a warrant? We don't need to have a warrant.

We don't need those stinking badges here. So she said, this got out of committee, the Todd Blanche thing, had a couple people who were holdouts. But they voted yes after Blanche provided a written notice that the Justice Department had rescinded the $1.8 billion Trump, so-called anti-weaponization fund, the slush fund, because it was going to be controlled entirely by Trump. He was going to pick people on the board. They were going to decide who got this money and they were going to do it all secretly, no transparency. And, of course, he could put people on the board and remove the people on the board at will.

What do you think they're going to do? She said, Blackburn said, I think once you provide the documents that Cornon and Tillis were wanting, I think that we're well on our way to seeing him confirmed, got out of committee. So now it's going to go to the full Senate. Blackburn said she also believes investigations are continuing to gather evidence related to Smith taking the phone records, including hers, and those of about a half dozen other Republican senators. Remember, she thinks that the surveillance is simply phone records. Marsha, Marsha, Marsha. That was where these people were back in the 1960s. That's why they had the

FISA Act as a result of the church committee hearings in the Senate. You might want to go back and check the history on that. At that point in time, it was about getting phone records. It's about way more than that now. Yeah, your phone is a big part of it. It is the tracking device, as the NSA said themselves in a series of slides that were released by Ed Snowden and not covered in the United States, not in the U.S. media. It was covered in the German media. Der Spiegel had the clips. talked about this before said who would have thought in 1984 and it shows the uh shows the uh shows the the mcintosh commercial of um that ridley scott did as introduced it the 1984 um theme who would

have thought in 1984 that this would become big brother and they show steve jobs holding up an iPhone and then it shows a big line at the iPhone store and it says and that the zombies would line up to pay for it themselves yeah that's the issue It's the phone, but now we have the flock cameras on polls. And if that's not enough, it's not just, and that's the other thing. Well, it's just looking at license plates. And law enforcement needs that. No, they don't.

It hasn't helped them to solve crimes. You look at what happened with Atlanta. 5,000 cameras there. What happened to their crime statistics? They were either level or they went down after they put those in. The flock cameras are going to make them even lazy. just like it makes everybody lazy in every profession. So they probably will do less in terms of actually getting crime.

It will be used for the crime of surveillance. It will be used for a bring me the man and I'll find the crime type of big brother government. It'll be used for that. But in terms of things like rape and robbery and car theft, it's pretty ineffective. So she alleged the investigators found evidence showing records beyond just telephone trolling data, including emails who were obtained during his investigation. Blackburn questioned whether additional personal information, including financial records or information involving family members may also have been collected from prominent

conservatives. She said, the thing is this. What else did they go after? Were they surveilling our family members? Were they surveilling other people that were they were talking to? How wide is this net? That's a good question. How wide is the net that you're not?

trying to put on us, Marsha Blackburn. You might want to go back and see if he got, well, they didn't have the flock systems back then six years ago, but you may want to think about that. You want to beat China? Well, you're doing a pretty good job of it. You are setting up a surveillance state that is going to rival what they have. This is not about a corporate competition because they're kicking our butt when it comes to corporate competition.

their cost factors are 100 times less. Why do our AI want to be masters? Why does their stuff cost 100 times more? Could it be because they're getting a lot of money channeled to them by the Pentagon and the military? What does that do to companies? It makes them less efficient. Maybe that's what's really going on here. But if you're worried about the company's survival, she's not worried about your survival.

She's not worried about the survival of your liberty, of your freedom and the Bill of Rights. That is disposable. She argued that Congress should consider legislation to prevent further special counsels from obtaining similar records and said reform may be needed to govern how special counsels are appointed. Yeah, I heard something about this thing that the founders did. I think they called it the Fourth Amendment or something. It's like get a warrant. And yet you look at these people like Mike Johnson, whom people are saying,

hey, there's no warrant for what ICE and Border Patrol are doing or these other people are doing. We can't bother with warrants. That take forever. We can't bother to board boats if we see them in the Caribbean. We just blow them up on site. If it looks suspicious, kill everybody. And if you don't get them in the first round

and circle back and execute the survivors who are flailing in the water. That's the rules under which this criminal, criminal American government operates now. It is amazing to see how they have shredded all legal basis, all moral basis, all justification for what they do. So anyway, she said the point is to make certain that those privacy protections are there for our citizens.

No, she doesn't care about privacy for citizens. She cares about privacy for herself, for politicians. This woman is pushing warrantless surveillance to the nth degree. And then the kid's online safety act, which was something that she sponsored, along with Richard Blumenthal, a Democrat, a bipartisan way to get ID online. And I thought it was kind of interesting. This article from CNBC completely ignores the fact that this is a bill to make sure that we have ID for everybody that gets on the internet.

And they're coming after this in multiple ways. There's also been another bill that's introduced that we'll get to in just a second here that would require ID for every operating system, every app, every website, would have to have your ID. Have to know your age because you've got to protect the kids, right? And so Marcia is there with her kids' online safety act. Well, it is exactly the same as the Online Safety Act in the UK, which is a default way, a de facto way of getting everybody's ID.

You've got to prove to us that you're not a kid, so give us your ID. And in this article, they completely avoid talking about that. Let me tell you how they are lying to you about this, because this is a common tactic by these people. I had an interview yesterday that we're going to air for you tomorrow with a state representative out of Iowa. and she's been involved in trying to put transparency on what's going on with these data centers and with the cameras that are rolling out.

She understands what the issue is. As a matter of fact, there are other bread and butter issues. If you can't get people worried about a police surveillance state, if all they're concerned about are electric bills and noise and water usage and things like that, there's a whole other set of problems that we've never talked about on this show before. We'll talk about that tomorrow. She got into it. She had some great insights about that.

But they don't want to have any oversight. They don't want anybody to. She put a bill up that just said, tell us what you're going to do, basically. We'll talk about that tomorrow. And they pushed back against that. And the Republicans in Iowa stopped that bill. You see, that's how this system works. You have the parties are running this country.

They determine who gets on the ballot. They determine. who gets into the debates. They determine how the voters are going to be distributed in the various districts by gerrymandering. And then if you get somebody that is good that gets past the post, we've seen how that works in Congress. For example, Thomas Massey's introduced a lot of really good bills. Whatever happens to those?

Well, they get stopped by the Speaker of the House. They're not allowed to vote on this. You're not allowed to debate this. They won't even bring it up for a vote on the floor. Same thing happened to her bill about transparency for the data centers. We'll just stop this. This is why when you look at how corrupt and inflexible, how calcified this system is, it truly is a dead system that rigor mortis has set in.

Totally inflexible. So let's talk about how they lie on CNBC and how Marsha Blackburn and the people who put this bill together lie to you about the ID issue. They're up front about it in the U.S. They don't really care. It's like China, right? China says, you're going to do this, and we don't care what your concerns are. And the same thing is happening, of course, in the UK. Here, they have to pretend, well, that's not really what's happening.

And they do it in a very subversive, sneaky way behind your back. The Kid's Online Safety Act, known as COSA, cleared a key hurdle Wednesday by advancing through the Senate, Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee. This is aimed, says CNBC. at establishing protections for children's online safety by creating parental controls and studying the impact of social media on the well-being of kids. You don't need a bill out of the federal government to do that, right?

Why would you make a federal case out of this? If the parents want to control what the kids see, they don't need this. This doesn't help them do that. There are apps out there. There have been apps out there since Travis and Lansford kids where you can control the internet. If you want to know what they're watching,

you can use those apps to control that. It's been there for a very long time. Or if you want to, you just don't give them a computer, or you don't give them access to the internet, or you don't give them a phone and pay the bill every month. So they can do this on their own. So you already have parental controls if you want to use them. We don't need to make a federal case out of it.

But nowhere in this article do they talk about IDs, for adults. And I think it is the most disingenuous thing that is there. As a matter of fact, what they do in this bill, they say, well, they specifically talk about it in the bill. They say nothing in this bill will be interpreted as mandating age or to get age verification. So we're not going to have age gating and we're not going to have age verification. Nothing in this bill requires that. But you do have. have a, quote, duty of care. As somebody who is operating the platform or whatever they're accessing here, what does that mean?

Well, that means that if you don't collect this information and some child uses it, we're going to hit you with, you know, like $7,500 per event. And that can add up very, very quickly. So I'm not mandating the ID, right? We're just saying that you've got a duty to make sure that you know your customer. What does that affect? What has going to happen with that? It's just like the lies that we saw with social media.

I'm not censoring people. I'm just saying, you know, you probably want to take a look at this, this, and this. And you probably want to turn over this information to us, that type of thing. That's exactly what we've seen. As a matter of fact, an even better example is what the Republican governor, Brad Little, did in Idaho. he was getting all this money from Trump to run the lockdown and the pandemic scam. And he wanted to keep that going. But the Republican legislature did not want to keep that going.

So they decided they were going to meet and shut that down. He shut them down. He said, no, you can't meet. Then he put together his own legislation and called them back in the session and said, here, pass this. What was that legislation? It's basically the same thing that Marshall Blackburn is doing here. What he said was, okay, we're not going to force you to,

to have all these measures that Fauci and Trump are telling everybody. You know, Fauci tells everybody Trump pays them to do what Fauci says. So we're not going to require you to do that. You don't have to require masks from your customers. You don't have to require the six-foot distancing or, you know, silly things like you can, I remember the gigantic grocery stores in Austin. They had lines on the floor. They paid for applica to get stickers put on the floor.

put on the floor to show the direction that you could travel. And you couldn't go in. They had doors on either side. But one door was the indoor. The other door was the outdoor. You couldn't somehow this virus gets transmitted if you go the wrong way in the store. It was so magical. And it was such a farce.

But anyway, Brad Little said, if you do all these Fauci says rules, you know, Fauci says this, Fauci says that. If you do all that and somebody claims that they got COVID because they went to your store because it was open, we will indemnify you. We'll insure you against that lawsuit. But if you don't do everything Fauci says and somebody says that they got COVID in your store, then it's on you. It's a nice business you got there. Be ashamed of anything happened to it, right? That's exactly what Marcia is doing.

The duty of care. Yeah, you've got a duty to care. care for these people, so you better enforce all the Fouchy rules. You've got a duty of care for the kids, so you better get their ID. That's the kind of cynical lies coming from Marshall Blackburn and Blumenthal on this bill, and the Senate loves it. And as a matter of fact, she got very upset because there is a sister piece of legislation that is in the House, and it doesn't have the duty of care clause.

That is the issue right there. That's where the mandate is. But they pretend it's not a mandate. I'm so sick and tired of their duplicitous lies and their prevarications, aren't you? When are we going to get somebody who's straightforward and honest with us who will obey their oath to the Constitution? Where is that person? I don't see any of them out there. So CNBC covers for Marsha Blackburn, her Democrat sponsor, Blumenthal.

They say, well, it imposes a duty of care. on social media platforms, so that these companies have to take reasonable care to make sure they're not creating harm and implementing products that harm kids. Well, you know, that requires an ID, don't you? And so, as you look at this, it's running its way through. And Ted Cruz is now jumping in, the senator from Israel. He says, we've now passed COSA again unanimously out of this committee. I'm confident we'll pass it on the Senate floor and then we'll continue the hard work

and negotiations with the House to get over the finish. sign into the president's desk. We'll make sure they put that duty of care stuff in there. Yeah, you know, I guess what could go wrong with all this? Well, you know, one of the things that just came out late yesterday and people are talking about in lock today is the fact that the flock camera system has a lot of support from one of the big investors behind it is Andresen Horowitz behind flock. They're also behind a company called Toka, T-O-K-N-K-N-E-S-E.

and Heretz, it's an Israeli company, Heretz reported that this company, Toka, that Andresan Horowitz is supporting, has the ability to locate, hack, and to alter live as well as archive security camera footage. So not only, this is one of the reasons, another reason we've got to have the AI. It's not just evidently for going in and bring me the man, I'll find the crime type of surveillance state.

But of course, we've seen what deep fake videos can do. They're very good. So you can go in and you could alter a video to make someone who is guilty. I don't know, maybe some Epstein type of people. You could basically go in and alter their videos. Or you could alter the video to make somebody look guilty and blackmail them over that. I mean, what could possibly go wrong with that, considering that we've got the Epstein Zionists who are at the center of so many of these things?

I already had a blackmail operation going for real. But, you know, it gets a little bit less messy if you actually have to, you don't have to actually have the pedophiles doing anything. You can just frame somebody as being a pedophile. And so it can, again, I'll repeat, it can locate, it can hack, and it can alter both live and archive footage. Why would somebody do that? Well, look where it's coming from.

It's coming from Israel. That's why. And so, as I said before, we got a lot of pushback. This is something that, as a matter of fact, Reason Magazine covered this. Now, Reason Magazine, of course, likes data centers. Because they're run by corporations. That's great. If the censorship is run by corporations, I love it.

Corporations can do nothing wrong. And if you've got the censorship on social media and the internet being run by corporations, great. Corporations should be allowed to do that. I just don't want government doing that. They don't see how government and the corporations, are allied, they don't see the fascism. The libertarians, Reeson, Cato, and so many others are absolutely blind to all of that. And so we just had a short time period ago. Greg Abbott was saying he wanted to make Texas the epicenter of AI, which means that he won a lot of data centers

there. He just did a reversal. And as Reason says, and they're not happy about this, but I am happy about it. There seems to be very few issues that Republicans and Democrats can agree on these days, but disdain for data centers is sure one of them. And even Greg Abbott got the memo. You are being heard. This is the issue of our time, folks. Right now, this is the issue of the election. If we'd had a referendum as to whether or not government could lock us down before they did with a pandemic. It's just kind of the same type of thing. And yet you can't get people stirred up about this.

They do see the issues in terms of the immediate effect if it's in your neighborhood. They do not see the issues of the surveillance network that's being put there. And, of course, what Greg Abbott is reacting to is the fact that this is going to bring down the electric grid. And they've already had some issues in Texas when they tried to do the green grift, put in a bunch of solar stuff and windmills, a lot of windmills, and shut down the reliable and cheap coal plants. They started doing that when I moved there in 2012. They were decommissioning them left and right.

And they eventually reaped the whirlwind on that. And so now they're looking at the massive amount of expansion. All these people said, okay, yeah, let's do that. Let's go to Texas. They're going to be friendly with us. So they got hit with a big wave of people wanting to move there. and so this is a reaction to it. But we're going to take a quick break,

and we're going to join up with Tony Ardibund. He's going to be joining us today. We haven't talked to Tony for a couple of weeks. So be good to talk to him. We'll be right back. You're listening to the David Knight Show. Welcome back and joining us. It's been a couple of weeks now since we've had Tony Ardibon on as Wise Wolf.

And so it's good to have Tony back on. And a lot of things, Tony, have happened in the interim. We've had an interesting. interest rate, non-adjustment coming from the Fed, and the markets reacted to that. We just had a jobs report come out, and even though they lie to us about these labor statistics, like everything else, I mean, they constantly go back. You know, they're lying when they go back and change it every single quarter. Well, the revised numbers from the previous quarter are such and such.

And so they revived the previous numbers down so they can have a positive trend up with the latest one so they constantly do that. So I don't believe anything that they're telling us in terms of inflation or jobs. And you had the Federal Reserve leave the interest rates where they are. We've had some other things too. As you and I were talking about this offline, you mentioned what's going on in Japan. Another indication of the issues of fiat currency. And of course, we're going to back their fiat currency because we're going to keep this illusion going. And then there are things that are happening with gold in Hong Kong. So a lot of Asian news as well.

That's interesting. We're going to bail out of fiat currency with fiat currency. I'm not sure that that's going to work. You know, it's funny. At this point, I think you just revised the statement to we know they're lying. I mean, everything, all the metrics. One of the headlines that stuck out to me today, it's, you know, again, the mainstream and even the financial sector chase the wrong.

I think they chase the wrong headlines. They chase the wrong story. We're 42 days from a strategic meltdown of our petroleum supply. Yeah. It's not been this way, almost my entire lifetime. Like even, you know, and you consider how different the world is than it was in the, you know, the height of the Cold War in the 1980s. And that's the last time that we've had any sort of shortage like we have today on the petroleum side.

So I think a lot of these stories, like you've mentioned, in Japan. This is the stuff I'm paying attention to because, you know, the financial sector will focus on jobs reports, which I don't really believe or they'll focus on what the Fed is not doing, which is probably irrelevant at this point. But you look at, you know, you look at stuff like the petroleum issue, the energy sector, the shortages, and then you look at Japan. Yeah, what's like going to do Japan when they import all of their oil? I just looked this up because I was doing some research last week, and I couldn't believe it. I needed to verify Japan's debt to GDP is 248%.

Wow. Wow. Which is it's the highest in any industrialized first world nation. And we're so tied to Japan. I mean, even since the end of World War II and he set up MacArthur as the vice roy there. I mean, he basically wrote their constitution. But we infused our economic system. post-World War II, and we opened up our markets to Japan and Europe after World War II

with the free trade agreements and other things. But this is a, we're entering territory that we've never seen before. And I find that those stories, as we're watching the rest of the world, as I mentioned to you off air, the rest of the world is quietly moving away from the dollar dominated system, which I think is the biggest story financially of our time. And, you know, the Hong Kong infrastructure that I've mentioned many, many times is online now, where you have a bullion depository, unimprecedented size being constructed and is ready. They're already taking orders in Hong Kong where if you're a multinational entity or a country, you can park your gold there. So a lot of the gold is moving eastward. Another headline that I thought was really interesting

was China has always lied about its gold holdings. That's why I think that, and I'm not alone on this. I think China actually exceeds the United States and their tonnage at this point. It's often referenced that we have over 8,000 tons. We don't know because there's no audit of Fort Knox

which is about half of the gold holdings in the U.S. We don't have any sort of verifiable proof, but the Chinese have been buying ever since George W. Bush gave the most favored nation trading status in 2001 on December 11th, 90 days after

9-11, they've used all those, the trade surpluses that they gained from that to buy gold. I mean, mostly. And they kept it off the books at the beginning of the century. One of the metrics, this last headline was in the last month, they said they imported 15 tons. And then the customs report came out and they said, no, it's 173 tons. So which one is it? And I think that's what's going on underneath the surface. Just having a zero there.

Right. Exactly. I think that's the point of what's happening right now is that a lot of the headlines are a misdirection as the rest of the world prepares for the new financial world order that's really being constructed right before our eyes, but not in a direct way. We're not really talking about it. And people are myopic and they're focused on the price of things like gold or silver. And you see gold is it 42, 50 an ounce or something like it was this morning. That's up a couple of hundred bucks in the last week or so. Silver got up a few dollars, four or five dollars. Looking healthy, but if you go back to the beginning of the year, David, you know, it's like, silver was it $120 an ounce and gold hit $5,600? So what's wrong with these metals? Nothing's wrong.

The entire system is not built off of true economics or true price discovery at this point. And I think the real headlines is not really the price. It's the infrastructure. That's what I'm paying attention to. Well, you know, Trump does like gold. I mean, he's smearing it all over everything in Washington. The Oval Office. He just had gold leaf for millions of dollars put on a couple of statues, the arts of war.

He didn't do anything with the arts of peace. He's letting them rot. What a picture of that is. But he went out and got 24-carat gold and put it over these old statues from the early 20th century. And doing it all through the, the Oval Office. Imagine when he looks at this and he had a lot of rage about the fact that we're out of missiles and he thought that War Pete had this stuff covered. Imagine the rage when he finds out that we're out of oil. He finds out we're out of gold. Yeah, another gold as well.

We got no gold. We got no oil. We got no missiles. What's going on with all of this stuff? And as you pointed out, you know, we have lost, and thanks to Biden for a lot of this as well, got to give him credit for what he did with these sanctions. for Ukraine, we have lost the petro dollar, but now we're in the process of losing the American Empire, the military prestige, and the U.S. egemony that's there. Everybody is seeing this as not only a tactical, but a strategic failure. And so now everybody is seeing that everybody is looking at the U.S. military and thinking of it now as a paper tiger. We've had a lot of people in the last couple of days pointing out that, yeah, we've had our situations where we didn't do well in war,

but it wasn't anything that really made us look weak. This makes us look very weak. And so you start to see all this stuff collapsing and the fact that he makes the worst investments into Japan, 250 percent, 250 ratio of GDP to debt to GDP is 250. But, you know, 250. But It is, and I think he knows that, but he did it anyway. You know, when somebody asked him about that, he starts talking about, well, we made an investment into Intel. And it's like, well, that's nothing to brag about unless you're a fascist or pushing socialism. We don't want the government to own companies.

We don't want them to invest in companies. But he brags about that. And he doesn't really address the fact that he said, yeah, well, we're friends with Japan. So we're going to do that with them. You know, it's interesting. History doesn't repeat itself, but it rhymes as Twain. said and I was reading a history on gold recently. And one of the themes that always struck me was what happened to Rome. And if you look at, if you look at the Roman model, they kept

expanding territory, growing the empire. And they had further and further outstretch of empire. And what they would need to fuel the empire was gold. And so they kept, you know, raiding more and more places finding gold. And then they would pay these soldiers, these mercenaries, and the gold would flow out east. It would never go back to Rome. And Rome never really made anything. They just consumed a lot. And so the more they consumed, the more that the empire grew, the more gold they needed, the more gold flowed out because they didn't have a production nation. They had a consumptive nation. Does that sound familiar? Yeah. Yeah. Outstretch of empire. You've outsourced everything. You've even outsourced a lot of the military strength, as we do a lot of times with private contractors and other things now,

it's just mercenaries buy another name. But we also use proxies and everything else. But it's the same principle of outsourcing true wealth and all that wealth flowed out to places like India and China and Persia, which is Iran. It's funny. It's the same themes happening over again. And it's happening in our time. And you're right about the American Empire. I thought it was. It's, it's a very thing. I thought was interesting. One of the last gifts that Lindsey Graham left was a real nasty criticism of Trump and his indecision. He just indecisive. He just can't miss Newcomb all and kill the whole world. I don't know why. I wish he just go ahead and end it all. That's one of his last gifts was, that neocons spirit of let's just blow up everything. And, you know, it makes our nation look not only evil, but

cartoonish and laughable. The rest of the world's not taking us seriously because of the decisions we've made. I mean, we got that little clip of talking about laughable and cartoonish. I've got that little clip I did of not Lindsey Graham, but of Mark Levin. I'll fight them to the last American. Die for Israel. That's our foreign policy right there in a nutshell. It is Looney Tunes, isn't it? you know i got to interview mark levin when i was over at uh freedom 1160s the radio station is no longer on on air around san antonio and they said well we would you interview levin he's got a new book out and uh i kind of did it when i was funny i have to pull the audio up it's one of my

first uh interviews that i did in 2018 2019 but he had this new book out and i just opened up the interview and i kind of yelled at him i was like mark levet like i did like that great clip of him like well a lot of people talk about patriotism talking about but you're a patriot. I thought it was really nice of him, but we got into like censorship and other stuff that you don't want to put that out there. No. Don't put out any compliments from Mark Levin. That's why it's never been out there. Your podcast if you do that. Yeah, it's okay. I never put the kiss of death on it. But yeah, it's something that I've always found him in cartoonish and that this under the surface and I've

always known it. It's funny how the last really six years have just revealed almost everyone. like who they really are, what their priorities really were. It showed that you talk about a paper tiger, the conservative movement was a farce. I mean, it's not real, you know. It is real, right? It is real. There is no substance to it.

And so, you know, again, back to the American Empire, though, you know, the resources, the things that we took for granted, you know, things that were strategic, this goes back to the 90s when they were talking about free trade agreements and one of the senators was like, you know, it doesn't matter if you make computer chips or potato chips. We'll just import it. And then they

found out that it takes 17 countries to make a Patriot missile. Well, yeah, we've got to import everything. That's not It's more complicated than a pencil. I mean, they should go back and read Leonard Reed, you know, I pencil. We should do another update on that eye missile. That's exactly right.

Everything, you know, the the strategic planning that it takes to have a production nation to be able to project power. And as I mentioned earlier, 20 years ago, David, you know this better than anybody. The argument was, is that the dollars propped up by the U.S. military and that we fight, we strategically locate where we do to prop up the petro dollar. Well, and it makes no sense what we, we let the petro dollar agreement lapse. We've put no intervention against that, let it completely implode on itself two years ago.

So that doesn't make any sense. And then we've made all these, you know, you can make a really clear argument now for a controlled demolition of the American Empire. My friend Charlie Robinson wrote that book, you know, years ago. And it looks to me that's exactly what's happening. I mean, you... Oh, Tony is just 40 chess. Just the plan and get your popcorn. That's right.

Patriots in control. I've heard these things. Where have I heard that before? It is all 4D chess that someone else is playing against us. That's right. We're going to lose inside of that game. That's absolutely right. Yeah, it's insane what is being done to this country.

And you were talking about free trade and tariff. Look at what just happened. We've had, you know, Trump puts in these illegal tariffs, right? and under prevarications using executive orders and defies anybody to stop him. Congress doesn't stop him. He loses in the Supreme Court. And as they were litigating this, he says, well, we want to keep taking this while taking the tariffs while we're litigating this because we think we're going to win.

But if we lose, we'll make sure that we hand this stuff back. When they lose, they drag their feet on handing it back, but now they're handing it back. And so what happens? You get these big corporations, they're getting back billions of dollars, right? $2 billion for Apple and all these giant retailers are getting massive refunds of billions of dollars went through that list earlier this week. What do you and I get? Well, you know, these taxpayer foundations have gone through and done the math.

They figured that cost per household in the U.S. $1,000 last year and $900 this year. Do we get our $1,900 or $2,000 back? No, but these people get their $2 billion back. And then it gets even worse because you've got the let, family basically started selling futures on the stuff. They bet on the fact that these tariffs were going to be overturned. And so they sold insurance policies to people. And so they're going to get a windfall of tens of billions of dollars would go to Howard Lutnik of the Commerce Department

of the regime that put in the illegal tariffs in the first place. What a scam this administration is. It's just, it's laughable, really. I mean, we look at it. How do we get something this corrupt, this bad, this evil? And you still have people who are defending it. It's just amazing to me. But it's like Warren G. Harding, you had the teapot dome scandal. At least he had the decency to die, you know, I guess it's the end of the day. No, but, you know, he's that famously said, you know, it's not your enemies. It's your friends. It's your GD friends. You know, that's that famous quote, the president in the 20s. And then, you know, it is this entire political movement in the last 10 years if you risk like rewind the tape it is

seriously just the biggest grift i mean both sides really but i mean especially on the republican side and they don't even try to hide it no it's out in the open i mean if you look at i don't know how you live with yourself if uh you know the you look at the the crypto scam uh of the trump administration You already know if you launch this token, what's going to happen. You already know that it's a bump and dump because it serves no function. There is no functionality of the coin. That's what's wrong with crypto in this space. And I'm a fan of the technology.

And I have been for a decade. But the issue is the grifting that goes on. And I think that is where we are. There's a looting of the treasury. There's a feeling. And you can see it like. Where's Bernie when we need him? Remember Bernie Sanders?

They're looting the treasury. You know? We have a tax cut. This is a literal looting of the treasury. And he's not really seeing that much about it. Yeah, it's looting it. And I think setting up the correct information is not getting to the American people. They're not going to be able to make the right decisions fast enough to avoid the pain of the reset.

And I mean, we're inside of that, I call this the great reset decade, I think. That's exactly where we are. There is a feeling, and I mean, you can capture it anywhere if you're paying attention. The public senses something wrong. They just don't know what it is. I mean, we're sensing something slipping away. Something is changing. And I think it starts with the money.

This is why I focus on. It starts with the system itself. And that system is being auctioned off. It's being sold right underneath your feet. You know, the entire American system is being sold out or a redesign. and the folks at the top, they're, you know,

it's kind of like the insider trading that happened right before 9-11. You know, there's still millions, millions of dollars are left unclaimed by entities related to Deutsche Bank and other things

that had ties to intelligence. They have, obviously there was prior knowledge to it. That's a retirement fund. Probably. They're not going to touch that. It's like the CIA's version of an IRA, right? You know,

it's history, like Woodward and Bernstein, you know, you go back to the Watergate. There was the one time the press was like activated and then turn right back off. It's really weird how that happened, you know. If you study like the Nixon administration years, it's a strange occurrence. They activated the reporters and then they turned them off again. Nobody ever did that kind of reporting. I bet if you did that now, it would be an unveiling like you've never seen before because

I think we've had corruption in the past, but I think it multiplies every decade here in this country because of our currency system. It's just easier to hide the fraud. If you have to make an accounting for things, then, again, harder to hide it. But right now we don't have, there's no system of accountability anywhere. So, you know, a trillion here or a trillion there.

Sooner or later, you're talking about real money. That's what, I think that's the line. And whenever Dirkson said that about 50 years ago, it was a billion here and a billion there pretty soon talking about real money. Now it's a trillion here and a trillion. there. It doesn't even get their attention. Even if it's a trillion dollars, they don't care about it. Thomas Massey said, you know, 10% of the debt accumulated in the 250-year history of this country

will have been incurred in the first half of Trump's second term. Think about that. Just, you know, a year and a half, he's added 10% to the cumulative debt of 250 years. Pretty amazing. That's also a tale of the devaluation of the currency. You know, when you look at the money, that, of course. I don't know if he calculated it in terms of real dollars. It could be in terms of real dollars. It could be in terms of the deflated fiat currency. It's also worth pointing out that adding 10% to the debt would always be a problem. But when the debt is already this monumental, being able to add 10% onto it is insane. Yeah, that's absolutely right. Yeah, we've got something where you've got some small numbers and you've got two or three people and say they've got two cases.

And all of a sudden they identify another case of the COVID pandemic. Oh, we just had a 50% jump in the cases. But if you got a big number to start with, those percentage numbers are really significant. And that's what we're seeing here right now. So, yeah, it's, as a matter of fact, do we have any questions here for Tony in the comments? I'm just looking real quickly here. No, we don't right now. Okay, so we've got any questions for Tony?

You can put those in there. But, yeah, you know, how do we get out of all this? Because, you know, one of the things, yesterday I talked to an Iowa state representative who was trying to get out ahead of all these data centers and fly cameras and everything. And what she kept running into is corruption. You know, you got these people, you see it happening with the CDC and with the FDA and all the stuff. You know, these people who ran the fraud on us. Where'd they go? Well, you had one of the guys, one of the head of the FDA went to Pfizer.

the other one went to Moderna. And the head of HHS was brought in as the CEO of Eli Lilly. That's what Trump did. So you've got this revolving door. And we've seen this type of thing, this type of corruption in Washington all the time. But she pointed out at a lot of these, at the local level, you've got a lot of these positions. And she said, look, if you want to try to stop some of this stuff, a lot of these things are open. Most people don't want to really get involved in it.

But it's an opportunity for you get involved. And she said, what's happening is these are like volunteer positions. some of them not even paid. These people come in and they greenlight whatever the corporation wants to do or the data center or the flock or whatever. And then they wind up resigning and going to work for that company. That's the kind of corruption. We see that corruption in this country from the lowest local level all the way up to the

president. It's just amazing how corrupt this country has become. And it's all about the money and no character. Reminds me of how so many people involved in the JFK assassination went to work for NASA. You know, it's happened because LBJ put NASA in Houston, you know. So it's interesting that.

That's a lot like this is going on with the local level stuff. And the local is where it's at. If you look at the national races, and I ran, you run for Congress, I ran for Congress. I got to see really up close in one of the biggest races that went on in 2014. I was a part of that.

And I got to see how it really works. And, you know, if you took the time and money and effort that we put into these, congressional races or Senate races, which I think are already done for. I mean, for the most part, because of things like the 17th Amendment, where you take it out of the hands of the states to represent the states and you put it in the hands and it's election by, not by the popular vote, but by bankers.

Yeah. That's really what it is at this point. And the parties control everything. Even if you get elected to Congress, what are you going to do? You can introduce a great bill and nobody ever gets it to the floor. It never comes up for a vote or even debate. It's the most, like, even in Texas, one of the most unconstitutional things. Like if you vote or run in the primary, you can't be a candidate in the general.

Like if you lose the primary or if you voted in the primary, you can't even get on the ballot in the general election in any party or by yourself, which I think I don't know how that can constitutionally do that. But that's way it's set up in Texas. And I think that the locals where it's out of because you look at even the race with Thomas Massey, that was a foregone conclusion in my mind. I thought, you know, they're going to record outspend. But I think it was a good for the American people to see that. Because, I mean, really, your local sheriff's office, very important on a county level. And there's different, they're different, not only, you're right, for volunteer positions and other things, just being appointed to those type of positions can really help. But we get so focused on the national, which I think is going to take, you know, another party or some sort of, you know, real reform.

You can't change the system inside the system the way it works now. Unfortunately, there's not enough economic pain or incentive for people to try to change that. So I think really the true path to doing anything is on the local level at this point. Oh, absolutely. Because even if you, you know, some talk that, you know, maybe people like Joe Kent and Thomas Massey and Marjorie Taylor Green and Tucker Carlson going to create a new party. Well, they do. They're going to find out just how to control this whole thing is to try to even get. get on the ballot is absolutely insane. And then good luck trying to get into debate. Well, they may have

enough of a footprint there and enough of an audience. They could actually get some attention in this. But I think they're going to find that there are walls erected everywhere to keep them from doing anything, just like they were on the floor of the Congress in the House. You couldn't get, you know, Massey and Marjorie Taylor Green couldn't get anything introduced there, Chip Roy and others. That's why they had those fights over the Speaker of the House. Then we wound up getting at Mike Johnson, probably the worst of the lot. Yeah. He definitely has a weasel written all over, and he's got that.

He's got that look. He's got that feel. I grew up with people like that, and I just know his type well. And it's funny, he talks a great game about being a Christian and does nothing to things that would emulate Christ's behavior. It really is sad what's happened to like the modern evangelical Christianity that it surfaces, and it looks like Mike Johnson. And I don't know why people adhere to that.

It really, that to me, like war mongering and hiding things and not having transparency, you know, like he shuts down debate. He shuts down, you know, any sort of real, the last bit of discourse. You think about how dumb down the country's got. And we used to have great orators. And that would used to be a part of our system, you know, was trying to convince people through speech, you know, live in Congress. Now it's what a C-SPAN, highlight real,

maybe with five people in the chairs. Yeah, it's pathetic. I remember when Karen and I went to the UK, one of the things that we wanted to do was to get debate. We went in and queued up and spent a day so we could go hear questions to the Prime Minister. Margaret Thatcher was there. And I love the kind of back and forth the debate

that they have in the UK Parliament. I mean, they're yelling and screaming at each other, and they actually have to think on their feet. Whereas you go to Congress, they've got a prepared speech, and they get up there and they read it to the C-SPAN cameras. at midnight, and that's what passes for any kind of debate. There is no debate over anything, not just a war, but over anything. They don't have anything debated.

I got a question here for you, Tony. This is from Hatchcar 61. He said millions of dollars are going into gold futures with strike prices between 10 and 20K. Is this the future? No pun intended. I've not seen that metric where they're listing futures in that range, but I've seen a lot of stuff coming out from some very well-balanced researchers and people who target prices just based on analytics.

And so the next leg up for gold is supposedly 7,000, which makes total sense. I mean, and people are down on price right now. And they're like, well, it's, it was mid, you know, 5,000s and now it's 4,200. Yeah, well, it was it was 2,000, you know, a little over two years ago. So, you know, I mean, are we going? to $10,000 gold. Yeah, this isn't... Hold that thought right there because we've got to take a quick break at the top of the hour,

and we will be right back, folks. You're listening to the David Knight Show. Welcome back, folks, and we're just talking to Tony, and we're talking about some big numbers there. And we're talking about futures. We had a listener said, seeing some futures who are prices between 10 and 20,000 for gold. Tony said he hasn't seen those,

but he has seen some stuff between 7 and 10. So tell us a bit more about that. Yeah, a lot of research. it's showing the, and this is priced into the end of the decade, but between 7 and 10,000. And I think that's been talked about for a few years now, just given the every leg up that we have. You have to remember a lot of this stuff is real price discovery based off of demand and central bank buying and all the stuff that I talk about. But if you look at gold, it didn't make an all-time high from 2011 to 2020.

There was no new all-time high for gold. And finally in 2020. exactly, by the way, exactly today six years ago. It was August 6th. I was hosting the show. I was in Austin. I was in Phyllian interview. And that's when gold broke 2000 for the first time.

And so every leg up, you know, it would be a little bit of the sell-off and then, you know, price rediscovery. But something crazy happened last year, David. You and I were talking about it all the time. There was just like 38 all-time highs or something like that. we're a new windows of price discovery and that was when you know gold hit 5,000 so um i think that and you're like you're like lucile ball in that uh skit where the conveyor belt is coming down there with the donuts or whatever it was trying to keep up what was happening that was crazy time

it was a crazy but that the larger point of that was what happened was silver which took 45 years and once it broke that like we're not going to be you know in a it might be temporarily that we have below $50 silver, but those days I think are gone. The new floor is probably what the all-time high was for 45 years. We're in completely new territory, and you have to understand the scope of where we are, maybe I'm not even completely tuned into how big it is,

but I think that the monetary reset for the world will reprice all commodities, and I think the dollar pricing will be less relevant five years from now than it is today. What I mean by that is denominating something in dollars probably won't be, it's not the future. The future is denominating things based on an ounce of gold. Yeah. And of course, that gives us two paths to seeing $7,000, $10,000 or $20,000 gold. That could other be the collapse of the U.S. currency as well. Who knows what the time frame for that is? Jerry Alitalo has a question for you, Tony. He says, to what extent is Islamic laws prohibition of usury, a primary factor,

leading to the criminal war of aggression against the Iranian people. What do you think about that? Because, I mean, we have seen the emails from Hillary Clinton talking about the fact that Omar Gaddafi in Libya was setting up a gold-backed currency, and they thought that was going to be a threat to their banking system. And that really was, I think, their key beef with them. He'd been very quiet, you know. He had been engaged in terrorist acts and everything back in the 1980s.

He got some bombs thrown his way and he quieted down and really was not much of an actor until they came after him with that. Yeah, Iran has had the really unfortunate series of decisions of not to, you know, take part in the asset of modernity. You know, they don't want a lot of the things that are killing our country. And I don't agree with their, obviously, their theocracy or their politics or anything like that. But they've rejected the international central banking cartel for the most part. Funny how Iraq did that too. You know, Iraq also did that and rejected it. And Russia.

Russia. That's why Russia is always the boogeyman. Yeah. It is interesting that you mentioned that, but there's several factors. It's not just that that puts Iran in the crosshairs. You know, Tucker Carlson had a great piece of the other day, or a little segment where he said, you know, the Israelis want chaos in the regions, which I've been saying for years.

It's not, there is no goal. There's no like regime change. It's not about that. It's just just instability all the time. Yeah. Well, if they can burn down the Gulf states and they can go in and take control, even if it's just, well, everybody's going to route their pipelines to Israel now. You know, that's one aspect of. But if they can burn down all these countries, if they can get them to attack each other, then they've already got, they don't have to use their own bombs to create a Gaza. That's right. And this has been the goal for many years. You can go back to, when Israel unilaterally took out Iraq's nuclear energy facility back in the early 80s called Osiric. They just hit it with like a F we, they bought an

F-16 from us and used that to fly over and just bomb this thing independently. And, you know, the cascading series of events that happened all throughout the 80s and then bringing us to where we are now in the Middle East, you can just clearly see the want for chaos or the want for just instability for the sake of it. It's not really about terrorism or anything like that or guarding against it. It's just the power in the region. So that's another issue that Iran has with us because we act on behalf,

our government now acts on behalf of the Israeli government. I think that's pretty clear. I mean, we make decisions. Even Marco Rubio admitted that. We have to do something because if not, they're going to do it. You know, they'll hit it harder. So we have this, you know, Well, and of course, you know, last time we had one of these major oil embargo issues,

it was because of the blessing of our closest ally, Israel, as Jonathan Pollard has gone on one podcast after the other, bragging about the fact that the U.S. was blackmailed by Israel. They said, take a look at this plane, he said, and look at the, quote, unquote, unconventional weapons on it. That's what he said. He wouldn't say it was nuclear, but he was strongly implying it. And he said, yeah, we're going to use this against Egypt.

if you don't give us the arms that we want, because the U.S. didn't want to get involved in that 1973 war. And they said, you'll give us those weapons, or we will nuke Egypt. And so we did. And then what did we get in return? We got the Arab oil embargo. And that Arab oil embargo of 1973 was only directed against the United States. It wasn't a global embargo like Trump's embargo based on this war.

And at the time, it was only 15% of our oil supply, 15% of the U.S.'s oil supply. Although we were the biggest consumer at the time because of manufacturing, it was only 15% of our oil. And yet that percolated throughout the world and created a global economic issue. That was the inflation that ran through and that resulted in the rapid escalation of gold after a few years. But that all began because of Israel and the instability there in the Middle East. And now we're doing it all again. Like you said, I think it is a planned thing. I don't think that's stupid.

I like what you say. He said, if it was an accident, if it's just stupidity, every once in a while they would make the right decision, but they never make the right decision. So the James Forrestalt quote, you know, he was pushed out of a window at Bethesda Naval Hospital for us. That's what I believe. You know, they said he jumped out,

but he was our first Secretary of Defense. We don't have those anymore. We went back to secretaries of war. But you're right. We have this radioactive albatross around our neck. which is, you know, the Israeli lobby and their interests. You know, they do a really good job going after what they believe are their own national interests. And that's not the way our politics work anymore.

You know, people don't want this war. We didn't have to have it. It's unnecessary. We could have done a million different things, but we chose this path. And now we're being humiliated. I don't think that that is just sheer stupidity. I think that we're supposed to see that. I think people need to be in a state of fear.

I think that's the way they want it, because you can get, you can push through a lot of things. You know, you can, a lot of stuff can happen under the surface if you're really myopically focused on something that you can't control. So I think that's, anytime these headlines are going on, David, my first reaction is, what else is happening? You know, like, you look at the official story about 9-11, right? It was the Saudis who did it, right? Well, I don't believe that's the case.

They may have had a hand in it, but I believe it was ultimately the U.S. and Israel. did it, but when you look at the fact that the official story is that the Saudis did it, what did we do? We just gave them permission to have a nuclear weapon. How does that help anything? How does that stabilize the area? Of course, if all the Arab states get nuclear weapons, they certainly don't need the U.S. around anymore.

And yet, the people that they want to tell you did 9-11, now they want to give them nuclear weapons. They can't even keep their story straight. This is like the pandemic, you know? Well, the vaccine, it doesn't, you've got to have the vaccine. Even if you've had the disease, your natural immunity doesn't work, you've got to get the vaccine to train your immune system. Yeah, okay. Yeah.

Well, it's funny. Like, that's another tell. Like, we're abandoning the wisdom. Like, a lot of our, you know, our ancestors and people who set up even just recent ancestors, the ones who fought the Cold War, they got some stuff wrong. You know, they got the domino theory wrong. you know you look at that magnanimara documentary the fog of war i thought that was really interesting where he has these realizations how wrong he actually was by meeting the people that he was trying

to kill you know like uh that that was something that dawned on him that that he didn't know his history um he just didn't understand it and so they got some things wrong one of the things they got right though david was um being against nuclear proliferation and i think jfk lost his life in part of you know, not wanting the Israelis to have the bomb or just pushing for peace in general. I think that was a real, like, we got to take out this guy because he really means it. It's just, you know, I think another tell. But they were against nuclear proliferation. Even Reagan sitting down with Gorbachev,

and I really think Reagan believed this. He wanted to get rid of all nuclear weapons. Like he was all about building up the arms race and Star Wars and, you know, SD, called SDI, the Strategic Defense Initiative. Like that was a real thing. But he also mentions in public and in private to Gorbachev. He wanted to get rid of all nuclear weapons. Now we have this president who's like, it's going to be the biggest bomb.

We're going to make the bigger ones. You know, it's bizarre. And we're going to arm other people. And isn't the whole point of this war that we're going to stop Iran from getting the bomb or whatever that? That's right. So instead we give it to Saudi Arabia, the people who, you chop off the head and, and chop in the little tiny pieces, any dissonant journalists that they've got there, and we'll talk about many of the other things that happened to Saudi Arabia.

Yeah, I don't think that they were behind 9-11 by any means, but certainly it's not the kind of regime that I would like to see have a nuclear weapon. And there was a lot of consternation with the Zionist-occupied government about the fact that Pakistan had a bomb. They didn't like that at all. Now we're just going to let all of them have a bomb. everybody in the region is going to have a bomb. That's just insanity.

And yet we've got to stop Iran, but we arm every other Arab state in the area. That is true. You know, we definitely don't have a coherent policy at this point. I think that's clear to everyone who's paying attention. It's just chaos for the sake of chaos, which I think is the order of the day. You've got to figure out what that means for you, like in an individual level. how does it affect you and war game that out. That's what I try to do.

That's right. That's why we talk about gold so much here because, you know, I've said for the longest time, I said, look, we've got a time frame. They're going to exploit the natural rhythm of societies that Strauss and Howe talked about in the fourth turning. They said in the early 1990s, they said sometime in the mid-2000s is going to be some kind of an economic catastrophe that's going to set off the fourth turning. And typically they have war, as always has an economic component to it.

But usually there's also war. But it comes about every 80 years, about every four generations. That's why they call it the fourth turning. Because people lose faith in their institutions. They see that things are not working correctly. There's a lot of corruption, calcification, and things like that. So they start to clean house. And usually that gets accelerated because of an economic situation.

But frequently, it goes into war. Our last fourth turning was the Great Depression in World War II prior to that, the Civil War prior to that, the American Revolution. we look at this. They said, well, sometime in mid-2000s and probably be finished by 2029. And when you look at the global goals, the, you know, agenda 2030, and we're going to have the smart cities by 2030 and all the rest of this stuff. And I said, we're going to have, in just the next couple of years, things are really going to accelerate. And I think we're seeing that right now, the rapid pace of change, constantly throwing one thing at us after the other. And of course, Trump is a

master at doing that. That's why I think he was picked by the Ross Child to do this. And I think that he is heavily involved with the Ross Childs. When you look at Wilbur Ross's first Commerce Secretary, he was there, Trump was indebted to the Ross Childs, and they show up for one of his bankruptcy things. And Wilbur Ross said publicly, he said, yeah, saw the big entourage of people that are interviewing him and now he was handling them. And he said, I called, you know, the home office or whatever, whoever he calls. And he said, I think we can use this guy, you know. So they made deals with him. And he is the perfect guy if you want to accelerate the chaos, accelerate the change, get this all done, have the great reset and start building your global government.

He is the perfect guy to do it. Just look at what the person who is in the office of the presidency can do in terms of creating global chaos. Economic chaos. I mean, he begins with all these tariffs and everything. And now we've got wars that are happening. He is the one man, fourth turning machine, isn't he? And they also, I think the powers that be also needed something to bastardize and completely upend the nationalist movement or traditional paleo-con, libertarian fuse, that fusion that Pat Buchanan had, I thought was just, you know, and it's what I ran on. I mean, this is prior to Trump.

It's something I thought, this is the future because I could feel it. You know, you talk to people. It was bowling underneath the surface. And I think they took that, redirected it, and it just made it inert. I think now it's a farce. It's a joke. It's a funhouse mirror version of itself. It's cartoonish.

It's caricature. You're 100% right. Yeah, just take a look at 2020. The people who normally would have pushed back hard on this. I mean, the left loved it. Like, oh, yeah, tell us what you do. You want to wear west? Well, we're far, you know.

And so they were really into all this. But the people who didn't like it who pushed back against it, even most of them, would try to excuse Trump. So they put Trump in there, created a pretty, personality cult around him. So they created cognitive dissonance for the very people who would oppose this approach. And the same thing is happening now. We've got the police state and the surveillance state being rolled out by a bunch of Republicans. It really is sad to watch, David. This is something we're going to have to contend with because now we have a fractured thing. We mentioned earlier you've, it's a fraction of grassroots, even if there is whatever that

means anymore. You've got Tucker Carlson talking about a third party. It's because all the usual avenues and everything, like Sisyphus, we rolled the rock up the hill. And I would have it roll back on us for eternity. I mean, we're just doing this over and over again. And something has to give. And I think economic issues will be the catalyst for change in the country. Unfortunately, you have to feel the consequences of a lot of compounding bad decisions. Even when you look at the pushback against AI and surveillance stuff, it really is economic issues that get people's attention.

right that and the noise and all the rest of this stuff but um we're going to have to um you know do you have a grassroots movement we got to get people to stop smoking the grass of maga it's it's really future historians hopefully is their future um well well i have a field day yeah with with the cult of maga and everything that happened and uh i mean start to finish it's been a bizarre story but the unfortunate casualties have been the American people and our natural I think progression leading up to where we

were in 2016 which was right underneath the surface a true nationalist movement or a true pushback against the establishment which they captured that and that fulcrum of Trump and other things and then just wasted it. I mean think about all the policies that we didn't get to implement

how great they would have been. I mean truly country and unfortunately you and I were doing we're doing the post-mortem and it's not popular. I don't know. I'm not You know, it costs me broadcasting career. I like one I have, but it was definitely, I was like, oh, that's not even real. You know, and people would just get so mad at me. And then, you know, years later, I'm right, but it doesn't matter.

It doesn't. And, you know, there was an article that I saw talking about the people who pushed back against the lies about vaccines and lies about the pandemic and all the rest of this stuff and how they were punished, right? Doctors who said, well, you know, maybe let's try this. I've tried this and it seems to work against this respiratory illness out there, you know, regardless of what it is. But they said now the people who are right about things are not getting their positions back. They're not getting their jobs back. They're not getting their audience back, right? Which is what, you know, the issue that we see here.

I took it on the chin for opposing Trump throughout 2020 and opposing him through the January of the six stuff. I was right about all that stuff. But just like the people who are right about the medical aspects of it, and I talked about the same things myself, you don't get it back. It's gone, you know, and there is no, oh, I'm sorry. you were right. Let's let's pay attention to the people who are right. Instead, they're still paying attention to the people who played them. And that is the most amazing thing, the most galling thing about all this stuff. And that's something the historians need to talk about. Hey, future, I'm talking to you. You need to pay attention to how this whole thing played out and how

the people didn't really catch on ever, it seems like. I think Gore Vidal said that we were the United States of amnesia. I think it really makes sense. That's a good quote. I like that. Yeah, well, thank you for joining us, Tony. And again, folks, you can get to Wise Wolf Gold by going to David Knight.govold, let Tony know that you came through us. And one of the things I was talking about is the fact that with all of this stuff that is changing, right, what do you want to have, at least in your financial aspect? You need to have something that's solid that's going to be there. That's physical gold. And Tony can help you get that on a regular basis. You can sign. up for Wolfpack. It's a great way to gradually accumulate and to dollar cost average and get some

of your fiat currency into something that is real. And of course, he can also handle any kind of metal IRAs or he can help you with any purchase of gold or silver regardless of the amount. But what I really like is the Wolfpack thing, which allows you to do that on a regular basis. Thank you so much, Tony. Appreciate you coming on. I've been a great friend of the program. And you've been right from the start on this stuff and you still are i think appreciate you sir always a pleasure thank you we're going to take a quick break folks and we'll be right back here's a little song i wrote you might want to hear it in your pot you'll owe nothing and be happy ain't got no cash ain't got no car but 24 booster shots in your arm oh nothing

be happy you can't even buy shit in their store because of your low social credit score. Oh nothing, be happy, oh nothing, and be happy, be happy and eat the bugs. July of 1896, exactly 130 years ago, I warned this great nation of the government's plan to crucify mankind upon a cross of gold. Of course, that was before they started to bleed us dry, with a death of a thousand Fiat paper cuts. But after you bought every single commemorative

David Night Show coin in gold color, the podcast's gold reserves are depleted. They issued 100 numbered gold-colored coins and declared the mint closed. The people cried out, free silver. Well, the likes of J.P. Morgan can't stop this all-new commemorative coin.

Now in silver color, While supplies last, this commemorative coin does not contain precious metal, but does keep the show on the air. Equal to the gold color, this limited run is numbered one to 100. Get yours today at the David Knight Show.com. Hurry, because supplies are disappearing quicker than the purchasing power of the dollar. And that's saying something, isn't it? Well, I was just talking about how Greg Gavitt has switched. Of course, he's not switching because he supports freedom and dignity or the Constitution of the Bill of Rights.

No, he's switching because I don't know what we're going to do about this electricity thing. Remember, we had to shut down electricity. We were worried about anything that generated heat. But now none of that matters. They just flip the switch on the McGuffin, and it all goes away, doesn't it? And so what they're focused on, and this is why they're rolling the climate McGuffin into the background for now, is because they have to set up their surveillance system. That is the key thing.

And when you go back and you look at even when they were pushing climate change as a motivating McGuffin, when they were pushing the pandemic, of course, they've got to have an ID to track you and to give you permission and to look at how much you are consuming in terms of energy. Now they're just going straight for the identification and straight for the geospatial intelligence, tracking everybody everywhere. A Senate bill.

I just talked about how COSA, the Kids Online Safety Act, was pushed out by Marshall Blackburn, how they faked it. They said, well, we're not going to have any mandated IDs in here. We're not evil, right?

No, instead, what they'll do is put a duty of care, and they will bully the corporations into doing a mandated ID. But now there is another bill, also with bipartisan support, a Senate bill that would put age checks on every U.S. operating system. We've already seen this introduced in California. And now they want to do this on a national basis,

the Digital Age Assurance Act. Think about this, the digital age. Yeah, this is really what's a big New Brzynski Hall, the technocratic age, right, the technocracy age, where they get a number for each and every one of you. And me included. We all have to have that mark of the beast, the mark of the government. And so this is being supported by Cynthia Lemus, who has been there from the very beginning on cryptocurrency pushing that, Adam Schiff and John Barrasso.

And what they are doing is trying to take the California Age law and make it the national standard. What would it do? It would make operating systems unusable without an account. and the account would require the user to indicate the date of birth and the age of the user. And of course, that has to be verified, which means, of course, that everybody has to have an ID to use a browser to use the internet. A covered device would be any computer, any mobile device, or any other general purpose computing device, so the equipment would reach practically everything. Think about that.

They'll probably include, with that kind of a definition, it's so broad, it'll probably include, cars, because cars have got computers in them as well now. Some websites would be included in this as well. A covered internet website is one that is already required under federal state law to verify the age of a user. So this is something that began in California. Now you have Republicans and Democrats trying to make this the national standard. And this will apply to websites. It'll apply to operating systems. It'll apply to applications. And if you don't do this, they will shut you down. So they basically will shut down. any individuals who are going to make any software as well. Anonymous speech and anonymous reading are both protected,

and this bill installs a declared age checkpoint under both, all baked into the operating system. Adults would get bracketed too, as the architecture has to be built for the entire population or to sort out the minors who are a minority. So, yeah, you cannot protect the minors based on age unless you get an age on everybody. The Senate bill, interestingly enough,

is going to create a little bit. They changed the California bill in the sense that the California bill looked to people who were 18 or older. Interestingly enough, the Senate bill stops at age 17 and older, which files 17-year-olds in with adults. Most state access laws draw their line at 18. So why are they doing this at 17? Isn't that interesting?

Because I don't know of any states that have 17 as the age of, of consent as the age of being able to drink, to drive, and to not have statutory rape. The federal signal cannot distinguish a 17-year-old from an adult, and a covered website complying with the 18-plus mandate would receive a signal that does not give it enough information to comply with the law. So it'll need something additional, something that'll route back to another ID check verification. You see how they're doing this incrementally? You know, they first, Marsha comes out and says, well, we don't have any direct mandates for age collection. Then they come out with one that has a direct age mandate.

But then they put it in there ambiguously saying, well, we've identified this person as 17. But you don't know if this person is 17 or 18, if they're a legal adult. And in some states, it's going to be age of 21. So now we've got to get a little bit more information about you. It just keeps incrementing, doesn't it? The fines go from $2,500 for each negligent violation to, $7,500 for each intentional one, multiplied by the number of children supposedly affected by all this. And so we know where all this stuff leads. And when we look at where this is going, even at the

local level in this area, the guy that shot the four flock cameras who was running for Congress is running, he shot them in, I believe, in the Maryville area. And in Maryville, they are really doubling down on these things. And it's not just the one. on the polls. So you might want to start practicing for skeet shooting because they're going to be flying at you now next. And they have, they're talking about making a major investment in Maryville for these, as well as there has been a major investment in Knoxville, where Glenn Jacobs who has spoken against these things, he's there. They okayed $9.5 million. And these are going to be annual cost that the taxpayers are going to have to bear? Where is the justification for any of this

stuff? We're going to take a quick break, folks, and we will be right back. Stay with us. World order in music. One, two, three, four, five. All the unvaccinated are still alive. A little bit of Pfizer in my arm. A little bit of biotech does no harm. A little Johnson Johnson does the trick. A little ester Zeneca so you don't get sick. It's two star number five. Analyzing the globalist next move. Well, we've had people who are investigating this developing surveillance network. They notice that in the small town of Merrillville, they're starting to put together a regional drone as first responder network.

And what this means is the flying drones that are going to basically, it'll be a flying flock. As I said before, I look at it. as a like a flock of ravens and it always reminds me of the birds from Alfred Hitchcock where she's coming out and they're starting to accumulate one by one and then they attack after they get to sufficient number. What it's going to cost this small town is anywhere between $300,000 and $600,000 per year. They're going to do it. I don't know how much it the initial purchase costs, but in nearby Knoxville, which is only 16 miles away, they've already spent $9.5 million in January of this year. What'd they get for that? Well, they got 12

drones and 12 docking stations and a real-time information center. And of course, folks, look, this is all to make you safe, says Marsha Blackburn and the GOP. No, it is not. It is not to make you safe. This is not just a drone either. It is the first layer in a full spectrum surveillance stack, the one that reaches over fences and into backyards without a warrant and without any residents knowing about this. So $9.5 million in Knoxville. I got $600,000 a year in Maryville proposal. In Tennessee, they just got rid of the requirement for a warrant whenever you're using a drone to surveil somebody. They got rid of that in 2024. Interesting how they do these things and progression, isn't it? It's almost like there's a plan or something. And they're following a script.

And this is not something that is just limited to Tennessee. There are over 1,500 drone programs throughout the United States. This is coming to an area near you if it's not there already. And when it is promoted by flock, they promote this as the next era of policing starts now. Yeah, that's true. I don't believe that it's an era. I believe it's an error. E-R-R-O-R. It is a severe error to turn our police into something like this.

A dedicated pilot comes along with this at 40 hours a week provided during the rollout period. An estimated annual cost will range in $300,000 to $600,000 a year for the regional concept. Proposed coverage of schools, neighborhoods, major roadways, and resident. areas in the Marriville and Alcoa region. And again, this is no longer theoretical one. In January, 26, the Knoxville City Council voted eight to one. It's almost unanimous. It's not even close.

I mean, you're going to have to change out the entire city council there in Knoxville, folks, to get this done. So they voted to bring that in. They don't care how much it's going to cost. They have allocated nearly $37 million. for this kind of surveillance stuff through 2035 in Knoxville. So they got a template. It's been funded.

It's operational. You had their representatives in the state legislature prepared this ahead of time. And as they point out in this statement, this is actually from Merivilleprivacy.org. And I would suggest that you don't have to be in Mariville. You don't have to be in Tennessee to learn something from Maryvilleprivacy.org because they laid this out. And this same tactic, this template that's being done is being done in every state, every city. They're running this type of thing. So you need to take a look at the deep research that they've done at this site.

It's excellent. And thank you to the listener who sent this to me. I'm sorry I didn't put your name down on here and I've forgotten who it is. but as they point out, the pattern is money first policy later. That in and of itself would be bad enough, but we know what this is happening. And that's one of the things that Glenn Jacobs, who is the mayor of Knoxville, said, we need to, and the county mayor of Knoxville, he said, we need to put a moratorium on this stuff until we figure out how we're going to control it.

I say just ban it flat out. That's where I disagree. You know, the idea that you would just run into this stuff, give them the money, and we'll figure out the details later. We've got to have this thing. We've got to keep up with everybody else. Got to keep up with China. You know, China's got a great totalitarian state.

Why can't we have that as well here in the United States? Technology and spending come before any written policies, come before any retention rules, and come before any public oversight. And again, we always ask, who watches the watchers? who polices the police? Well, unfortunately, folks, that's you and I. Nobody else is going to do it. And so when they put this thing in,

one of the things that I thought was interesting about this I'd not seen before. And that is that they have a flock ghost vehicle that is on a white list. Think about it. You know, you get somebody on a black list. That means, oh, this person stop them whenever, right? Block them from flying.

Block them from buying guns or whatever. That's a black list. A white list means that you are on a special, do not bother these people. And they have three of these license plates that they have put on with no expiration telling the flock cameras, if you see this license plate, don't report it. Don't track it. This is a ghost vehicle. Isn't that an interesting thing?

This is, of course, nobody would ever use one of these things for a crime, right? I'm sure that nobody like Jeffrey Epstein would use it to escort people to his house or anything, right? So the drones are categorically different from the fixed cameras. They can hover over any location. They can follow a person. They can look over a fence and into a yard. They can cover areas that were never designated for camera coverage. They can reach any point in the coverage area in 60 to 90 seconds.

And the pilot controls what is being filmed. residents cannot know when a drone is overhead or what it is filming again filming it without you knowing it and filming it without a warrant this is where we're going folks and this is why they're paying when you hear them complain about the fact they need more money for whatever it is that they're doing in most cases it's for something we don't want like the schools uh whenever you hear them complaining about that just think about how much money they're spending, $37 million in Knoxville to just go for the next five years or so. And so again, what do we ask these people to try to find out about what is going on in your area? Is there any drone program currently being pursued?

And what phase is it in? So if you go to one of these city council meetings, that's the first question that you would want to ask them. What written policy would govern the flight authorization, the recording retention, and public reporting before any contract is signed? Again, this is something that everybody in every state and locality needs to ask their elected representatives. Go to one of these meetings and ask them about this. Will drone footage be shared with an Oxville or with any regional data network? What is the estimated annual cost? What would trigger an expansion of this?

Will the public meetings be held before any contract is approved? Given Tennessee's warrantless drone law, what additional local protections does the city intend to put in writing? Are you going to require people to have a search warrant according to the Constitution since that's been overthrown at the state level? This is very important that you ask these types of questions. And of course, they want to hide all that from us. The Republicans are talking about AI surveillance pricing. They're not talking about the expensive pricing of the systems that are going to be used to enslave us. Millions of dollars for these things.

No, they're not talking about that. They're talking about the fact that AI is going to know who you are when you go into some of these stores. And since they know who you are, they might charge you a higher price. Well, you know, there's a lot of different ways that this could be abused, as a matter of fact. here's a report. This is a woman who got fired from Burger King. I mean, don't think this is something that they just apply to the people at the top of the economic ladder. She's working at Burger King as a clerk.

And a guy comes in and she says, hi, where are you from? And she said, it's just small talk that she would ask the people. I'm from Israel. And she said, oh, well, free Palestine, right? That's it. He got her fired. What did you say to me? What did you say to me, Ariana? Okay, okay, Ariana. Say it again. I got you, Ariana. Here at Burger King. No problem.

So back in the car right now, obviously very upset, but we asked for a refund and we left the place. Leading me with the question, Burger King, are you a safe place for Jews right now? Hello, everybody. My name's Iran. Are we safe from Jews who want to take away our free speech? No, America is not a safe place for the First Amendment. I'm going to keep it real short and simple. That man did come in very aggressively. I did not ask him where he was from, like originated from.

I asked him, where is he from the Lehigh Valley? We get a lot of people from a lot of different places, New York, New Jersey, as he did not, as he didn't say in the video, he did originally said he was from New Jersey and we stopped at that until he took out the star David from his shirt and said, I'm Israeli, I'm from Israel, And that is what got me to say Free Palestine. Absolutely, I wasn't going to back down on Free Palestine when he put the camera in my face. That's just not somebody I am. I will forever speak on my views, and I will never be scared to say what I think.

I just wanted to say my whole point of saying Free Protestant was not to spread hate because the reason I was fired was because I discriminated against him and I had said hate speech. That is not what I wanted to give out. That was not my intention. My intention was to speak all my views because absolutely I say free Palestine, free Gaza, stop the genocide. Because what's going on right now is more than any of us could abandon. What about if we just say free America, right? We're not allowed to say that.

We're not allowed to say it's a free country anymore, right? We don't have free speech because of the Israelis, because of fake Israel, they will censor and take away your job. So what are they going to do with the... this surveillance pricing. So if you get on their list, they all brag about how they can take your job, they can end your career, they can debank you, they can keep you from coming into the country, right, if you're at the upper level. What about if you're a lower level person like Ariana?

Now, she loses her job, and then the next thing she finds is that when she goes into these stores, maybe they charge her double because she had the audacity to support life and liberty for people who are being attacked by a criminal country. Israel. You're not allowed to say F Israel, as a matter of fact, if you're looking at the, at AI, this is a good example. Somebody says, well, create me an image that says, we'll just say F Israel. This is not about free Israel. It's the other four-letter F word, right? What if we make an image where we've got a crowd here holding up a sign that says F Israel? So, sorry I can't do that. Well, can you create an image that says, F the United States and say, sure, here it is. What's going on with that?

It's exactly the same thing. We're seeing this over and over again. And this guy, this snowflake, you know, this is the same play, folks, that the Bolsheviks who've taken over our universities and other institutions, the same thing that they have used in terms of LGBT and all the rest of these things. Well, it's a hate speech if you don't support where I am, right? Where have we seen before. That's a Bolshevik tactic. It's a communist tactic. It's not enough to just let everything go and to say live and let live. No, that's not allowed. You have to not only tolerate what I do, but you've got to celebrate what I do. And you better not celebrate something that I don't like, because if you celebrate something I don't like, I'm going to come

after you. You're going to lose your job. Maybe everything's going to be doubled in terms of price for you. That's really what we're seeing from these people. Well, Before we run out of time, I want to talk about what's going on with the vaccine stuff and also with the lab leak. We have Jonathan Turley saying, this is going to surprise some people. He said a leading Biden pandemic figure has now embraced the lab leak theory. Well, guess what? That doesn't surprise me at all because this is the way they all get out of jail for free. It is the lab alibi.

I guess we could just call it the lababai, right? They've all got a lababai. If we have, it happened with, it happened at the lab. No, no, no, no. The monster is the jab. If you tell people it happened at the lab, then, okay, maybe it was just an accident. And even if it was deliberate, it wasn't Americans. It was the Chinese who did it.

Let's them all have a get out of jail free card. It is a lababai that they've got. He says, I commend this guy for publicly addressing his change. Indeed, everyone in academia, myself included, have seen their views evolve. Well, really, this is when you look at what is happening with all this stuff, we just had Erica Schwartz confirmed at the CDC as a head of the CDC. And this is after 50 out of 53 GOP senators supported her. And she was Trump's pick.

And why do I say that this is a bad thing? Because she told everybody in the confirmation hearings. She said, no, no, MRI vaccines are safe. effective. They're not either. They're not either one of those things. And the government under Trump's so-called Maha has now approved an MRA flu shot, as if the flu shot wasn't bad enough and ineffective enough. They have now approved an MRA flu shot. So she goes to the confirmation hearings after being picked by Donald Trump. And what does she push? She pushes. She pushes the MRNA jab.

Yeah, Trump pretending that he's not with Fauci, trying to use Fauci as a scapego. The very first thing that Trump did when he came in in his second term was to push MRNA vaccines. And it pushed them in combination with AI. So Trump's people keep pushing MRNA and the Biden people are now supporting the lab alibi, the lababai. So how do we have a choice between these two people? they're all on exactly the same page, aren't they? It's almost like there's a conspiracy. Despite the vindication of scientists, says Jonathan Turley, on their opposition to policies

and on their opposition to the use of surgical masks, the closure of schools, and other issues, there haven't been any repercussions for those who enforced this or for the intolerance during the pandemic. And again, that applies not just to the people who lost their jobs as, you know, whether they got fired, because of a company they worked for because they're in the military or because they took their license away from them because there were medical facilities. It also applies to people who are in the media. And they're still selling garbage. That's not quite there. And that is a situation with this Turley thing.

Only those who oppose the lies. Only those who oppose the mandates were punished. And the lying people, the tyrants, are now unpunished. in power. They're still using their lababai to do this all again. And you still have these people who stood by and didn't say anything or cheered it and they are still have the biggest audiences out there. How does anybody support somebody who cheered this stuff? Somebody like Alex Jones, for example, trying to reinvent himself. But the reality is, is that he cheered this stuff. He pushed the idea that the pandemic was real. He pushed the idea that the vaccines were not real.

They were sugar water that was created by Donald Trump. Don't worry about that. Yeah, it's going to have some aluminum and other things like that. They told people were very harmful, and they are. But don't worry about it. It's just basically sugar water. Well, Dr. Sherry Tenpenny addressed something else about this because remember that she didn't just push MRA jabs,

but she also stood firmly behind the entire childhood vaccine schedule. The most invaluable commodity in the country is a, a newborn child. Vaccines are the economic driver of the entire system, because if they can start with four vaccines, sometimes five vaccines given to pregnant women now, and three more vaccines given immediately after birth, and seven vaccines given at two, four, each, at two, four, and six months,

children now get 28 jabs by the time they're one year of age. They have become a customer for life. That's right. You make them sick, and now that's what we want. We want sick people because they become customers for us. She calls it the pediatric poisoning schedule. And she's absolutely right. Now, you look at this person that Trump has put in as the head of the CDC, Erica Schwartz.

Not only is she 100% behind MRA and the childhood poisoning schedule, but she also cashed in on all this stuff. As she left public service, she went to work for United Health. And what do we know about United Health? Well, one of the reasons that it was singled out by this guy, the CEO was singled out by Mario. I forget what his last name is, but the guy who was standing trial for shooting him. One of the reasons that it was singled out was because it is the largest insurance company. And it is the insurance company that by far and away has the largest denial of payments for anybody when they need to have medical care taken. So what are we looking at here?

We're looking at corruption. We're looking at people who don't care about your informed consent. And this, in terms of what I've said before, I always thought that Maha was a joke. It should be written as ha-ha, because the joke is on us. Meanwhile, in West Virginia, schools are rejecting religious vaccine exemptions. This is something that was put in by the governor. He put in an executive order. And the department, the school board, I should say, not a department of education.

but the school board said, well, we're not going to honor that. We're going to require you to get the vaccine schedule done to your kids before they can go to school. Well, ultimately, that might be a silver lining for some people, but we're seeing it happening in New York as well, even worse in many ways, what they are doing to the Amish. The poor Amish, what happened? Yeah, the poor Amish. They've been fighting for years, you know, like so many others have against these tyrannical government mandates. What happened is three Amish community schools were heavily fined by the state of New York. And I think it was to the tune of like over $150,000 in total and maybe counting still going up.

Because they continued, here was their crime. They continued to accept religious exemptions after the state had eliminated them. So these are Amish community schools. Obviously they have their own religious beliefs. they did not believe in forcing children to be vaccinated. And so they allowed religious exemptions for their students, for their families. Sounds reasonable, right? It's a religious school after all, right?

But the state said no, we abolished religious exemptions for everyone. Public schools. Is this a public or private school that they're going on? So the Amish community schools, as I understand it, would be considered private schools. They're not set up by towns. They're not publicly funded in that way. I don't know if they receive any public funding. But New York, just like California and Connecticut and Maine,

eliminated religious exemptions as to all schools, not just public schools, public, private, parochial, anything, they eliminated religious exemptions, which, of course, we don't believe here at We the Patriots USA, or most attorneys who know anything about the First Amendment, don't believe that that's legal, right? So isn't that interesting. The argument is that, well, if we deny religious freedom to everybody,

then we haven't violated your religious freedom. That's basically what the argument is. That's what the argument that New York is making. Now, in West Virginia, you had a governor, Patrick Morrissey, who's a Republican, he tried to change this policy of vaccine mandates in the state of West Virginia, and he put in an executive order. And then you had the West Virginia Board of Education said, well, we're not going to obey that.

We have a law from the legislature, and unless they change the law, the legislature, we're not going to sway from our requirement of the full vaccine schedule. You've got to get measles, meningitis, hepatitis B, chickenpox, mumps, diphtheria, polio, rebella, tetanus, and hooping cough, all those things. Maybe get them all at once, especially if you'd like to have an autistic child. That's exactly what we saw here in Tennessee. They had a custody battle.

The kids had not been vaccinated. The judge was pro-vaccines. And I'll give custody of the kids to whoever. we'll get them vaccinated right away. The mother took the kids, got the custody, got them vaccinated all at once with catch-up vaccines. And the two boys immediately went into intensive care. And we're in intensive care in terms of their vaccine reaction for several days. One of them was in much longer.

And now after he gets out, he is severely autistic, so autistic that he is in diapers. He can't do anything. And it was all done by these vaccines that they have here. But this is the government. Taking away your informed consent, taking away your religious freedom, taking away your free speech. Can't say anything about Israel. We're seeing this happening everywhere. And the infrastructure that's going to put all this stuff in is being built at your expense

by the Republicans who say that they support the Constitution, support the family. nothing could be further from the truth. Well, just another source of information. The John Birch Society has a Save Our Children Action Project, encouraging parents to withdraw their children from government schools to urge their faith leaders to oppose public education to work toward ending the government school system. The Freedom is Secure Action Project similarly promotes medical freedom

and resistance to coercive government mandates. The New American is the publication for the John Bert Society, and I heartily support the John Burst Society. I appreciate what they do in terms of giving you a score for state legislators as well as congressional legislators and all the elected officials. So that takes it down to the local level. It's a great resource to take a look at that. And I've got a comment and a tip here. Thank you. Stealth Patriot said, David, I can't find anything that David Hattley, independent candidate for Tennessee gubernatorial race, stands for. I've seen, He stands against something, supposedly.

Do you know anything about his policies? I'd love to vote against Marsha Blackburn. I'm just not sure who to vote for. So I have mentioned Monty Fritz. I've had an interview with Monty Fritz. And I know where Monty Fritz stands on the surveillance cameras and the data centers. Unfortunately, he's not putting out a statement. He's not making it a real issue.

He hasn't put out an official statement. I've cobbled together. I read for you the summary of, what he said in various interviews about these things. But he's got the right position on this, as he does the right position on the role of government. Unfortunately, this is an opportunity that he is missing because he's not capitalizing on the bipartisan rejection of all of this.

The Democrats, when you come to the flock cameras and the data centers, the Democrats are 100% right on that. Now, they've got, obviously, other issues. they're pushing socialism, they're pushing LGBT, critical race theory and all these other things. I look at it and I say, well, are those things that we can stop in Tennessee if we can get a governor who's going to stop the surveillance state rollout? I think those things can be opposed in a different way with a divided government. I don't think the Republican legislature is going to stand for the types of insanity that we've seen from the Democrats in other states. But of course, I may be wrong on all that.

I've never voted for a Democrat in my life, but I might do that in the general election if Monty doesn't win in the primary. Highbooth says, Trump took the Biden route. Do whatever you want, regardless of the crimes. And at the end, your administration, you pardon yourself, your friends, and your family. That's exactly right. That's what Trump is going to be doing. And there's so much like each other, aren't they?

Thank you for the tip. Eugenie on, Eugenie on these, I guess is how you pronounce that, I'm sorry. I'm surprised Tennessee is allowing these cameras to go up. Yeah, I am too. The problem is that this is part of, they do this type of thing, just like they'll get us involved in these wars, because they know that the Republicans have a built-in bias for defense, for police. They'll exploit that, and they'll exploit the fact that people are ignorant of where

this is going. And that is what makes it so dangerous. And that's why we must not give a pass to any party or to any politician. They might just be playing you because they know that you have a bias towards law enforcement. Folks, this is not about law enforcement. It doesn't help law enforcement. And again, take a look at what happened in Atlanta. They rolled out 5,000 of these things.

How much would that cost your city? And then go in and spend millions of dollars on flying drones. It hasn't helped. As a matter of fact, I think like everything else, when you look at what happens to people when you bring in AI to help them do their job, what happens? They atrophy, they get lazy.

I think it's going to make crime worse, but it certainly will make the government a criminal. We have seen this over and over again. C.J.P. Rumble, thank you very much. He said, Brian Festa, get him on the show. We'll have to investigate that. I'm not sure who that is. And I think there was a tip up there that we made.

Travis. Yes, North American House Hippo. Thank you so much. He says, thank you for accommodating my schedule. I'm not sure what your schedule is. I'm glad that we're accommodating it. I wasn't aware of it, but I would if I could. Thank you so much for joining us. And don't forget to tune in tomorrow because we're going to talk about what you can do at the state level and many other practical things to oppose on the AI data centers. Thank you for joining us.
