The David Knight Show - Tue Episode #2,004: Hollywood Reels as Trump Proposes 100% Tariff on Services and Intellectual Property; Trump’s Alcatraz Revival

Starting point is 00:00:00 The In a world of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. It's the David Knight Show. As the clock strikes 13, it's Tuesday, the 6th of May, year of our Lord 2025. Well, today we're going to talk about tariffs in detail. I mentioned it briefly yesterday. The tariffs about film. And this raises a lot of very interesting questions. It's very telling, but it is also very fitting because let's understand that Trump's tariffs are not thought through.

Starting point is 00:01:09 They're not practical whatsoever. They are theatrical. And so, of course, it's a perfect match for his tariff programs. This is not about tariffs per se. This is about the Trump administration and the theatrical way, all of the tariffs, or the theatrical way that he's going to lock down America and damage us. It isn't about one form of taxation versus another. It isn't about fairness. It's about locking us down. And we're going to go back and talk about the lockdown as well a few years ago. But

Starting point is 00:01:43 we'll take a look at crime and punishment. The bonuses being offered to people to leave as well as reopening Alcatraz. More theatrics. But most importantly we're going to talk about the tokenization of everything. You better watch out for this. It's coming very fast. We'll be right back. Yeah the perfect example of what Trump is doing. Theatrical stuff. Maybe he understands, as we all do, films coming out of Hollywood are so bad that they need protection. But it's not going to help them. The ones coming out of Europe are not really all that much better. The New York Times says, the President's call for tariffs caused confusion in Hollywood,

Starting point is 00:02:32 and they came after he met with John Voight, who he says is his ambassador to Hollywood, his special, special ambassador to Hollywood. And the reality is that it is absolutely unworkable. It has immediately caused alarm throughout the industry. And what they said was, well, you know what we really want is we want some of your money. Give us some incentives, give us some tax breaks and all the rest of this. And he's talked about some of that

Starting point is 00:03:02 because understand that the tariffs are not going to be there in place of the income tax. They're going to be there in addition to the income tax. So we want some extensions and so forth. The President's social media post came out on Sunday, called for a 100% tariff. It's going to go big, go large on films produced outside the United States that caused confusion in Hollywood. Wait a minute, we do a lot of our production outside the United States. Probably the ten biggest production items that we had in the last couple of years all

Starting point is 00:03:33 came out of the biggest box office, figures I should say. All came from abroad. And the production is distributed. Like he distributed the manufacturing of cars between US, Mexico and Canada. That was his first administration's goal. Now that's got to stop and it's got to stop immediately. We're going to slam on the brakes and we're going to start violently twisting the steering wheel.

Starting point is 00:03:58 That's what he's doing. Left right left right left right. Slam on the brakes. What do you think is going to happen? Anyway, um, Tariff on films produced outside the United States caused confusion in Hollywood, which has lost a great deal of local and film production to states and nations that offer rich tax credits

Starting point is 00:04:15 and cheaper labor. So I'm worried that tariffs could cause more harm than good. Well, again, it's cheap labor and subsidies that they want. It's what all the big businesses want. And by the way, if you cater to the big businesses and you reassure a lot of these big businesses, they want cheap labor. They're not going to pay you. First of all, they're not even planning on having human workers in the factories they're

Starting point is 00:04:43 going to bring back. The reason they're doing this now is because of robotics. They don't want American labor. Get that understanding. Everybody thinks, oh, we're going to get good manufacturing jobs again. No, you're not. All the money is going to go to a few pals of his. I said that in 2017. When you looked at the tax cut, I said, look, I've seen Reagan did the trickle-down tax cuts and stuff, and I think there's an argument to be made for that. You know, there's varying opinions about it, but I wasn't as opposed to it in principle. When you look at what was happening to it, I said, well, they're not going to – they're not reshoring in response to it. You saw massive amounts of tax credits given to Apple computer.

Starting point is 00:05:28 What did they do? They bought their stock, bought their own stock. And all of them were doing that. I talked about it, Gerald Slinty talked about it repeatedly on my program. He said, they're not investing in America. They're not reshoring production in America. Not at all. And I said they're not going to reshor production in America until they have robots. Now we've got them. They're

Starting point is 00:05:52 planning on, look, Elon Musk is planning on putting out 5,000 robots this year factories and other things. They're talking about, well you're gonna see an army of robots walking down the street and so forth, right? There's a Chinese company says we're gonna match Tesla robots. We're gonna put out 5,000 as well. Everybody is focusing on not just the robotic arms that they were using to build cars in the past that were fixed in place and had a limited function in that type of thing. No, we're talking about generalized robots, humanoid robots to replace humans in the factories. They don't want you involved

Starting point is 00:06:31 in the factories at all. Elon Musk even bragged about that. He actually exaggerated it. He said, we have a cybernaut, juggernaut, something like that. He said Dreadnought Factory, I think is what it was. Where it's all robotics and we just completely automated. No humans. That's their goal. They're not gonna give you jobs. This is about Trump and his technocrat crony pals getting a big paycheck. I don't know who they think they're gonna sell it to, but it's like everything else. We're gonna take everybody's jobs. Okay, well then who you gonna sell it to but it's like everything else. We're gonna take everybody's jobs Okay, well then who you're gonna sell it to?

Starting point is 00:07:07 That they're not gonna sell anything to be this they're gonna be making things for themselves. They'll be making weapons to subjugate us How's that for blackpilling? We do have some pasta news coming up Anyway, John Voight Stephen Paul has manager, met with Trump over the weekend, shared their plans to increase domestic film production. They suggested federal tax incentives, changes to the tax code, which is not going to go away, the income tax code,

Starting point is 00:07:39 and production treaties with other nations and infrastructure subsidies. Handouts, handouts, handouts, crony capitalism folks. That's what it's about. It's the name of the game. Uh, Hollywood's top lobbying group, lobbyists. We're the lobbyists for the small businesses. Nowhere.

Starting point is 00:07:58 That's why you're not essential. Why Trump said you're not essential. Why he's working to get rid of the small businesses. Hollywood's top lobbying group, various unions, and the state's representatives who are pushing bills to increase state tax credits for the film and TV industry. A void emerged from these meetings with two one-page documents drafted by the MPA, Motion Picture Association. And again, this is a New York Times article. One letter encourages lawmakers in Washington to adopt manufacturing production incentives. They're

Starting point is 00:08:33 not manufacturing anything. Manufacturing propaganda, manufacturing consent, as people said, right? That's what they're manufacturing.'s the ultimate propaganda you manufacture consent that's the purpose of hollywood the other asks chandras to extend a section of the tax code that expires the end of 2025 because the tax code is not going away we're going to make these tax cuts permanent or whatever because the income tax is permanent this is just a new tax that's being added to everything else. So then they want to be able to expense TV production costs in the year that they incur them, that type of thing. I guess maybe now they're having to amortize it over a few years or something. So Hollywood is panicking.

Starting point is 00:09:20 After Trump proposes a 100% tariff on movies filmed outside the United States, of course, there will be, if this goes through, there will be, there will be, other people will match it, but it creates real issues. Because what we're talking about here is a service, and services are typically not tariffed. This could open a Pandora's box of massive tariffs on services. Guess who that would hurt the most? The United States, because that's what we do now. We don't manufacture hard stuff. We manufacture what we provide. It's a service economy. So who's that going to hurt? Us. Did they think about that? The other thing is the movies

Starting point is 00:10:01 are just basically intellectual property. How do you tariff that? Oh, it's good, because Trump... And look, we have... Show the picture again. They've got Shelley DeVille, I think, from The Shining, freaking out, screaming, because... Yeah, as long as we can make the libs lose it, it's a good thing. Yeah, Travis, can you show that picture? Many in Hollywood elsewhere are not responding with gratitude but instead are lashing out

Starting point is 00:10:31 at Trump. You see, they should be grateful. They should be grateful, says Breitbart. What pathetic sycophants they have become at Breitbart. Does any of this stuff rational? That's the question, Breitbart. Not, is, are they, did Trump do it? Okay, it's good.

Starting point is 00:10:50 If you disagree with it, oh, you are like this person pictured at the top of the article. Yeah, that's what you're like, right there, yeah. The film industry, steadily fleeing Hollywood and California for more than a decade, going to places like Georgia, Louisiana, New Mexico or cities like New York and Chicago That have been increasingly drawing production their way what they want is money. They'll come if you give them money North Carolina went through that for a while. We were there. They were giving heavy subsidies to films to make movies There as a matter of fact, I think the first, I think the Abyss was filmed in a decommissioned nuclear reactor, the cooling tower. They filled it with water,

Starting point is 00:11:32 if I remember correctly. Down in Wilmington, they were doing a lot of film work. They did some in Raleigh. Karen was an extra in a movie that was there. The just in terms of, I had some good starts, Robert DeVaughn was in it, it was Handmaid's Tale. She did it for one day and said I'm done with this. She didn't even know what the movie was about. It's pushing abortion and feminism anyway. The Gavin Newsom has desperately tried to offer tax incentives. Again, you know, pay me, pay me, pay me. These films are garbage. These films are pushy, hectoring propaganda. That's what they've become. That's why nobody's going to watch the films, because it's nothing but hectoring propaganda about LGBT and transgender and feminism and all the rest of stuff.

Starting point is 00:12:21 I don't want to have their clumsy, in-your-face, lapel-grabbing propaganda. It's not entertainment. Their agenda is everything. Everything. Trump has stepped in to offer tariff incentives to keep film producers from fleeing the country. Again, why don't you tell them to back off of the LGBT and you'll give them money. Well, actually he's the one who's backed off in Maine. He said, yeah, if you're going to do the transgender thing, then I'm going to take money from you.

Starting point is 00:12:56 And he's backed off of that, at least part of it, part one of the programs. The US Department of Agriculture was going to say,, we're gonna cut school funding of lunches. They backed off of that. They're still doing the Title IX thing, which I said has been on and off again. Obama tells them to do it, Trump tells them not to do it, Biden tells them to do it, Trump tells them not to do it, it's going back and forth, back and forth.

Starting point is 00:13:20 Yeah, but you know, play that game. Say to Hollywood, you're not going to do the LGBT or CRT or whatever in your films as propaganda. And then you'll get your tax subsidy or whatever. Look, I'm not interested in the government producing films. I'm just saying that they're not going to do any of that. Look, Trump never cared about that stuff anyway. So, he's one of the first people to suggest and to try to push in a tranny into his Miss Universe contest.

Starting point is 00:13:56 So, he doesn't care about that issue whatsoever. It's just some red meat that he's throwing to his base here and there. The movie industry in America is dying, he tweeted out, all uppercase. Dying a very fast death, he wrote on Sunday. This is a concerted effort by other nations and therefore is a national security threat. There you go. It's a national security threat. So it's an emergency and he can do it by fiat.

Starting point is 00:14:20 In addition to everything else, he said, messaging and propaganda. Yeah. Therefore, I'm authorizing the Department of Commerce and the... By the way, to call the films national security is one of the most absurd storylines, except that he did admit the quiet part out loud. Hollywood has for the longest time, it's not the foreign countries anymore than it is Hollywood. Hollywood has been the master of pushing out propaganda

Starting point is 00:14:54 on behalf of the American government. As I've said many times, the CIA had a site where they could go get story ideas, right? They said, we'll help you write the stories. That's why you get so much of the stuff. Everybody, look at this. The movies predicted what's happening. Well, of course they did.

Starting point is 00:15:10 Because the CIA has determined, you know, the intelligence community and DARPA and all the rest of these, they've got their plans for the pandemic and for all the rest of the stuff. They know what they're going to do. They write the script. They practice it with things like Dark Wonder, but they also take the scripts and they give them to the movies. So they can do that to condition

Starting point is 00:15:29 the public. Predictive programming. And, you know, that has been the case for a very, very long time. And then when you look at action films, they want to program the public there as well to view our unending, undeclared wars as heroic somehow. I had, like I said, I had a friend who went to West Point, he wound up in the Pentagon and he was part of the, he was reviewing scripts. When people wanted to have military assets that they would use in movies, he would review the scripts to see

Starting point is 00:16:05 if they were favorable to the US military. If they were, yeah, we'll give you equipment to play with and to shoot and all this other kind of stuff. If not, you don't get anything. So the trade representative for the Commerce Department immediately began the process of instituting a 100% tariff, said Trump, on any and all movies coming into our country that are produced in foreign lands and then all uppercase. We want movies made in America again.

Starting point is 00:16:38 Well, you know, we want to talk about propaganda and stuff. Hollywood is filled with propaganda and now Hollywood is filled with the most anti-American propaganda of anybody. Hollywood propaganda is more anti-American than most foreign films. It is adamantly set against our society, our history, our people and our Lord Jesus Christ. That is what Hollywood is against. It is an antichrist business. I would be happy to see them go away, quite frankly. Well, one person in Variety, one producer out of the UK, said this makes no sense. It implies that a US film is meant to shoot in the US.

Starting point is 00:17:26 But the Harry Potter films, Lord of the Rings, Schindler's List, Mission Impossible, Gladiator, Aviator, so many more are US films that shot overseas for obvious reasons. Do these films have to shoot in the US from now on? It's an absurd announcement with no meaning nor understanding of storytelling or creative impulses. He doesn't understand anything about the business that he's trying to help.

Starting point is 00:17:52 He's a bull in a china shop and he is full of bull about everything. Officials in France countered that the president's policy idea said that film production in their country is not even subject to tariffs in the first place because they are services, not products. Trump, do you really want to set up a precedent where services are taxed? Because we have a big trade surplus and services. We have a trade deficit and products. We have a big trade surplus and services. Well, I guess he doesn't know or care because he hit

Starting point is 00:18:34 every country with tariffs. And he hit increased tariffs on countries that we've got large trade surpluses with in terms of manufactured goods. He hit them with tariffs as well. He doesn't care. He doesn't know. He doesn't care. Doesn't know doesn't care. Anyway, technically films are services on which you can't impose tariffs. One French film industry insider said you could you'll end up in court and it will take months. We don't sell goods. We sell a service. So I don't see how that could

Starting point is 00:19:05 be taxable. It's difficult to know what we're talking about at this stage, what it concerns. It's still very vague and with Trump things can change every day. Trump is good for news, he's just not good for our economy. Everything changes with him on a daily basis. So what's new with Trump today? Well, you know, he just put on massive 100% tariffs and then next day he takes them off. That's newsworthy, but not good for the economy. So they are taking a wait-and-see attitude.

Starting point is 00:19:39 Maybe he can lock down film production like he's about to lock down other aspects of the supply chain in the United States. Many say there's no way to logically react until something actually happens. Don't take Trump seriously, but you should take him literally. An Italian producer noted that some films simply can't be made in the US. He said, I think the US studios will continue to shoot abroad when they want exotic locations. They aren't going to start shooting James Bond in Detroit, he said. But here's the issue.

Starting point is 00:20:12 A former Abu Dhabi film chief said, ultimately, it's going to push the studios to make much heavier use of AI. Perhaps that's what Trump is trying to do all along. There's AI buddies. You don't need to have a location with AI. It provides a backdrop. I mean, you don't even need to do all the complicated green screen stuff. And so it'll take the actors and put them in whatever kind of environment you want.

Starting point is 00:20:44 Is that the game? Push everybody to AI production? And then what are you going to do if it's foreign AI? Who wrote the software for the AI? Where was the computer located when it ran this AI background that's there. Well Hollywood Studios stocks fell, Netflix dropped 4%, Disney 2%, Warner 3%, Paramount 2%, Universal owned by Comcast, Comcast fell 1%. I'm fine with that. I would love to see the so-called entertainment industry go away. But it's the Trump effect on everything.

Starting point is 00:21:30 Webb Bush Securities wrote to investors on Monday that large studios, distributors and independent studios, quote, carry a significant amount of risk as, listen to this, they will have to lobby the Trump administration to set a reasonable standard for films. That's the other part of this, folks. Trump goes in and he does all this crazy stuff, right? And then you've got the lobbyists that come to the Commerce Department, they talk to Howard Lutnick and all the rest of them. They lobby them and, you know, it's like throwing your weight around, creating chaos and destruction.

Starting point is 00:22:02 And of course, there's a great reset aspect of that but it's also you know ripping the markets up ripping the markets down people that you know can do the insider trading on it right but it's also pushing and shoving people around so they not only come in and kiss the ring but they make the contribution as a lobbyist. Just look at the Trump inauguration. All of these technocrats out of Silicon Valley and other places showing up, giving record amounts of money to Trump for the inauguration. Where does that go? Where does that go? And they're buying favors Where does that go? And they're buying favors with him.

Starting point is 00:22:44 They're buying influence with him. They're investing as lobbyists for that. They don't agree with him even if he had a political philosophy. This is all about open naked corruption and a power play. That's what this is all about. That's all it's about. It's not about you. It's not about your agenda.

Starting point is 00:23:05 Don't project your agenda of making America great again on Donald Trump. He's not about that. It's about the play. It's about the money. It's about the payoff. It's about the power. It's not about you. It's not what you want. He says you're non-essential. He says small businesses are non-essential. Pay attention to what he did five years ago when he said it, when he did it. You think he's changed with that? No. So the analysts for Wedbush Securities estimated that 75% Netflix content is produced outside the US and foreign language movies and TV shows make a significant portion of Netflix's service content.

Starting point is 00:23:53 Terrors on intellectual property are a new issue that can raise questions for the industry. These proposing attacks on intellectual property, attacks on services, that's what this tariff is. Never had that before. And that would not be good for America if everybody starts doing responding in like kind. So this is from time why Trump's 100% tariff, 100% going large. Why it doesn't make sense at all. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick immediately responded and said, we're on it. We're on it. Yes sir, whatever you want. Yeah, you guys call me up, we'll make a deal, okay? You know, let's have lunch, we'll talk about what it's going to take to get Trump off your back. Okay. Oh, we're on it. Yes, sir. We're on it. Disgusting yes-men and bootlickers around him. They won't even

Starting point is 00:24:51 tell him that the MS-13 was photoshopped on the knuckles. That's how bad... Yes, sir, we're on it. Whatever. I know it's not the US government or the president's job to understand how movies are made, said an entertainment consultant, Catherine Arnold. But if you understand how complex and interconnected the global film market is, both on a production and distribution level, it is devastating and it doesn't make any sense. But Trump said he had done quote, very strong research over the past week. What? He did a study?

Starting point is 00:25:22 He said he did a study? Well, you know, a very strong research. That's a relative term for Trump. Did he actually read an article? Did he actually go beyond a headline? You know, usually I guess it's just glancing at headlines. Trump could actually try to reverse the trend by offering incentives and tax credit. In other words, buy them off, buy them off, buy them off. Everybody says that. Well, there was an article from Forbes saying Trump's movie tariffs would have

Starting point is 00:25:53 hit these recent huge US blockbusters from Avatar to Wicked. And as I said, I'm fine with that, you know, Barbie, tax it to death. So which recent blockbusters are filmed outside of the US? I'm fine with that, you know, Barbie tax it to death. So which recent blockbusters are filmed outside the US? Well, Avatar, The Way of Water, grossed 2.3 billion dollars. Yeah, I didn't see that. Not interested. Barbie, 1.4 billion dollars. Didn't see that. Not interested. Deadpool and Wolverine. Didn't see that either. Not interested. 1.3 billion. Jurassic World Domination. A billion dollars. Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness. 9.55 million. Okay, now look, they're going through all of these saying, now that was filmed in the UK. But you look at these other ones like

Starting point is 00:26:41 Jurassic World Domination. It was filmed in the UK, Canada, Malta, produced by US companies, Universal Pictures, Amblin Entertainment and the Kennedy Marshall Company and so forth. So they're listing all the different places, Minecraft, the movie, who cares, New Zealand, No Time to Die, $774 million, Thor, Love and Thunder, $1 million. Filmed in Australia. Wicked. It hurts the eyes to even look at the cinematography of that thing, let alone the content. 754 million dollars. Dune, part two, 715 million. Ten movies. These things are anywhere from 700 million to, you know, 2.3 billion and I couldn't care less. Not interested.

Starting point is 00:27:31 So why is film production down in the US? Could it be because it's garbage? Well yeah, that's a big part of it, but also it was the Trump lockdown that hurt. You know the Trump lockdown five years ago, remember that? Where nobody went to the movie theaters, everybody was afraid. Maybe they're still afraid. Production in Hollywood and elsewhere has declined in recent years largely because of the pandemic, says Forbes, and that's right. Yeah, he's hurt a lot of things. The knock-on effects, the higher inflation, the higher deficit,

Starting point is 00:28:04 all these are all knock-on effects from what President Trump did in 2020 and what Biden continued. It's a uni party. White House says no final decisions have been made on the movie tariffs. It's still exploring all options. Uh-oh, let's think about what we did here. Nevertheless, options. Uh-oh, let's think about what we did here. Nevertheless, Lutnick said, I'm on it. I'm on it. Yes, sir. Whatever you say, sir. You're a genius, sir. You're our stable genius, a stable coin genius, perhaps. Although no final decisions on foreign film tariffs have been made, the administration is exploring all options to deliver on Trump's directive to make to safeguard our country's

Starting point is 00:28:42 national and economic security, making Hollywood great again." Fortunately, you can't pronounce those four letters. Throw up if we get another ma-ha or something like that. It also suggests the White House may be exploring what legal avenues it has to pursue the complexities, the uncertainties of taxing services and intellectual property, that type of thing. Trump announced the tariffs Sunday night. Again, the answer to everything is to tax it, isn't it?

Starting point is 00:29:16 You know, we do well to think about what Ronald Reagan said in 1986 about the government's view of the economy. Now he was making fun of Democrats and I want you to listen to this short little clip of Ronald Reagan and see if you don't think he's talking about Donald Trump the Democrat. The government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases. If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it. Yeah, yeah. If it moves across the border, tax it. If it still keeps moving, regulate it to death. And then if it stops moving, subsidize it. That's what we're talking about

Starting point is 00:30:04 with all of this stuff. Well, we're going to take a quick break on Rumble. Soylent Goy says Trump's trainees and tiaras. This is a Miss Universe thing. Mr. and Mrs. Universe. Now, if it's Miss Universe, what do you do for the pronouns with that? Gender specific on Rumble, Ron Helton says there's a lot of cooperation between the military and Holly Weir to make military propaganda movies.

Starting point is 00:30:35 Absolutely, like I said I had a friend that's what he did. He was in that office. We're going to take a quick break. We'll be right back. Music You're listening to The David Knight Show. Yeah, no, boy, DGH says, David, this shows the man the White House rules nothing. Only a fool believes that Biden ran anything. That was the benefit. Look, when we look at the lockdown, what happened?

Starting point is 00:31:44 We were telling everybody, you know, your kid's in a classroom where they're putting out some really horrific stuff. Nah, it's not my kid's classroom. They'd believe it as anything. You know, yeah, it's happening nationally. It's happening at state level. It's happening at the county level. It's even happening at the same school, but not in my kid's classroom.

Starting point is 00:31:59 Then they saw that it was happening. And you know, we tell people, hey, the guy in the White House isn't running anything. And then we get Biden to show that, yeah, that's absolutely true. That's absolutely true. Trump is there to get things done the Democrats could never do. His base can't think, yeah, it's left, right, left, right. And I think all of this stuff, look, when you look at 2020, the election, you know, the lockdown, the vote by mail ballots and all the rest of the stuff, that was the key. They got people more focused on the voting machines. But the real issue in 2020, I think, for corruption was the mail-in ballots.

Starting point is 00:32:32 That was a Trump thing. Trump kept that going. He refused to have the big meetings because, hey, it's lockdown. We can't all die if we do that. And remember, at the beginning of it all, they had their CPAC, and remember how the Democrats all say, good, all the Republicans are gonna die. And they didn't. But nobody, including any of the Republicans, nobody that I worked with or for would point out, as I did, that, yeah, nobody died from CPAC, so it's not a real

Starting point is 00:33:06 pandemic. No, no, no. It had to be a real pandemic so we can sell storable food and masks and other things like that. And so Trump could have done the same thing. He could have held his rallies, his huge rallies and all the rest of the stuff. Nobody would have believed that Biden had won the election. But instead, he shut down his rallies.

Starting point is 00:33:24 He didn't hold them instead he does a vote by mail thing which is easy for them to stuff the ballots I think it was all deliberate I think they needed to get as I said he prepared the vaccine then Biden would force it on people with the mandates and then Trump and come back in and roll this back and get people's trust again. That's what they all say. R.F.K. Jr. said, I'm here to restore people's trust in these institutions that you shouldn't trust.

Starting point is 00:33:53 I'll say, that's my comment. And Tulsi Gabbard says the same thing as well. Trust is their plan. You don't wanna trust the plan. No, no, no, no, trust is the plan. The plan't want to trust the plan. No, no, no, no. Trust is the plan. The plan is to get you to trust them. That's why they go back and forth.

Starting point is 00:34:10 It's his turn now. Rumble DG8 says, David, I think Trump is owned by Israel. They got dirt on him through Epstein. Wilbur Ross was his handler the first time. Now it's Lutnik. Yeah, both of them the commerce secretaries. And of course, Wilbur Ross was there with the bankruptcies for the casinos and He was working for Rothschild. They were the bankers who were getting his you know

Starting point is 00:34:30 I'm gonna keep him afloat and even publicly said it he said I saw the crowds around Trump And I contacted him back at Rothschild's. I said we could use this guy let's work with it and He didn't care. You know, they bailed the thing out and all Trump on he didn't care. They bailed the thing out and all Trump went, he didn't care about having control. He just wanted to have his name on the building. And yeah, I think they got him with Epstein, absolutely. But you know what? He would do this just for the money.

Starting point is 00:35:00 He would do it just for the money, but I think they do it on him. So now the Trump administration says it will pay illegal immigrants a thousand dollars to self-deport. You know, I said this yesterday. I said, we've got this welfare magnet. We've been paying people to come into this country illegally. I said, you've got several different types of illegal immigrants, right? You've got some of them who come in here to work, some of them who want to live off of

Starting point is 00:35:19 welfare and then you've got some of the cartel criminals who are coming in. Well, you treat the cartel criminals like the criminals that they are. You should give them due process, however. For the people who are coming in, who are here for welfare, what you do is you take that welfare magnet and you don't just turn it off. You flip the polarity and you use it to repulse them. You start charging them. You start charging them extra for being here.

Starting point is 00:35:44 Put on fees, extra fees. Oh, you're not a legal resident? Okay, then it's going to cost you this much for everything, right? They deal with the government. Instead, our government is giving them free stuff, giving them Social Security, giving them welfare, giving them education for free and all that. No, no, no, no, no. If you're not a citizen, you have to pay, I don't know, $12,000 a year for an education. That's what they're handing people out now in Texas with this new voucher system. It's actually more than that. They're going to give, I think we're going to get to that here, but it's like 75% of what they spend on a student in school, 75% of what they spend on a student in school, which works out to be $10,000. So you charge whatever it costs for that education.

Starting point is 00:36:33 You charge that somebody. You don't build a new school for all the illegal immigrant kids who are coming in. And so you turn that around and they will go home. If they came here for the money and the welfare state, they will go home. If you turn that around, not give them any, but charge them. Now, when I got off of, that's what I said on the program yesterday. I've said it before, but then after the program ends, I say this headline,

Starting point is 00:36:58 well, Trump is gonna pay them $1,000 to self-deport. No, don't give them any more money. Charge them. Come on, it's too soft. Trump is a softy when it comes to these illegals. That's what I say. He should be charging them for all the services and fees and all the rest of this stuff. Charge them. Make the magnet repulse them. The wall, as I said, isn't going to do any good as long as you've got a welfare state here. And the Democrats had planned that with Cloward and Piven. They want to draw them in.

Starting point is 00:37:29 No, now push them back out. And you can do it in all different kinds of ways. Every time they interact with the government service and everything, you charge them for that. And charge them the full amount. But instead, they're going to pay them and hope that they go home. I'm going to keep giving them welfare, but hey if you agree to go home I'll give you a free flight and I'll give you a thousand dollars cash. How's that? The agency, which is the Border Patrol, said that illegal aliens will receive both financial and travel assistance to facilitate travel back to their home country through the Customs and Border Patrol home app home app This is rebranded from the Biden app. We don't want to say that we're still using the Biden app So let's shut down what we called the Biden app

Starting point is 00:38:22 which was The but that the CBP Customs and Border Patrol, one app. One app. No, no, no. We're shutting that down. And then they immediately open it back up with a different name. That's the difference between Trump and Biden. Same thing.

Starting point is 00:38:42 There's an app for it. They give them a phone and the phone's got an app on it so they can keep track of all of their illegals. Well, you know, if they wanted to get rid of them and they're walking around with a phone with an app on it, you gave them the phone. You mean tell me that you can't find them with a phone? You can find anybody with a phone. You can geolocate them with a phone and deport them, but no, no. Now we're going to give them $1,000.

Starting point is 00:39:08 How pathetic this is. What a poser Trump is on these MAGA issues. I just don't see why they can't understand it. Individuals who are not authorized in the United States will get their free phone and their app, but we won't use that app to locate them and send them out of the country. No, instead we will send them a thing and say, hey, you want a thousand dollars? On the day they took office on January the 20th, Trump moved to close down the Biden administration's CBP-1 app, which had been used by migrants in Mexico to schedule appointments at designated US

Starting point is 00:39:45 ports of entry. Upon the cancellation of the app, migrants could no longer schedule appointments and tens of thousands of border appointments were scrapped. More than 900,000 people entered the country on immigration parole under that app, generally for two years, starting in January 2023. So Biden gives them an app to help them come into the country. You can come into the country and you can schedule one of this stuff, right? Somewhere, you know, five, ten years from now we'll have a hearing and we'll talk

Starting point is 00:40:15 about that. Now Trump rebrands it and he uses the app to give them a thousand dollars and promise that they're going to go home. Trump said in mid-April we're going to give them a stipend. Why would you do that? Why would you do that? We're going to give them some money and a plane ticket and then we're going to work with them. If they're good, if we want them back in, we're going to work with them to get them back in as quickly as we can. Now, so, you know, what is the only problem here? It's not the welfare state or anything. The only problem is they didn't say, Mother, may I? Before they came in.

Starting point is 00:40:54 You got to, you know, wait for them to say, Simon says. Yeah, I guess so. This has been tried before, as I point out on AP News, the Department of Homeland Security said that it costs about $17,000 to arrest and detain and remove somebody in the US illegally, but now they can do it for $1,000, as opposed to plane flight. But a 2011 study by the Migration Policy Institute and the European University Institute found that there was about 128 programs around the world that did exactly this, often referred

Starting point is 00:41:24 to as pay to go programs Pay you to go home But the study found that with few exceptions such as one program to return people in 1990s from Germany to Bosnia These voluntary return programs generally failed as encouraging large numbers of people to go home So as this is happening, Trump is also pushing to get the military inside of Mexico. Trump says the Mexican president is afraid of the cartels because she rejected his overtures to have the US

Starting point is 00:42:01 Army go into Mexico and hunt them down. Yeah, I'm sure she is afraid of the cartels. She should be afraid of the cartels. It is a failed narco state where the cartels, if they can't buy you, they kill you in most cases. You know, and they hang these local officials from the bridges and so forth, hang their bodies from it. She should be afraid of the cartels. But I tell you what, the more dangerous cartel is the US government. You let the US government come into your country for a war? Who in their right mind would agree to that?

Starting point is 00:42:34 She'd have to be insane to agree to that. The thing that will not leave. The military industrial complex. A turn Mexico into a perpetual war zone. Oh yeah, sure, come on in. Let's do it. In one of the calls Trump said that it was important for the US Army to enter Mexico to help fight against drug trafficking. And he said, and I want to say that that's true. In some of these calls he said, how can we help you fight drug trafficking? He says, I propose that

Starting point is 00:43:04 the US Army come in to help you. And you know what I told him? She said, how can we help you fight drug trafficking? He says, I propose that the US Army come in to help you. And you know what I told him? She said, no President Trump, the territory is sacrosanct. Sovereignty is sacrosanct. Sovereignty is not for sale. Sovereignty is loved and defended, she said. She said that one day after Trump said she is so afraid of the cartels that she can't even think straight. But she is rightfully more afraid of the United States government, the Pentagon, military industrial complex, these policies. When asked if he was disappointed that Scheinbaum, that's the name of the Mexican president, turned down his offer, he said, I think she's a lovely woman. He would put her in

Starting point is 00:43:45 his one of his beauty contests, I guess. The president of Mexico is a lovely woman. He repeats it. I think she's a lovely woman. The president of Mexico is a lovely woman. She's a woman. She's a woman. She's a woman. But she's so afraid of the cartel, she can't even think straight. That's what he's trying to tell you. He's not emphasizing her beauty so much as that she's a woman who's afraid. She needs a strong man like me to take care of this, evidently.

Starting point is 00:44:10 First report last week by the Wall Street Journal, which detailed tensions between Trump and Scheinbaum toward the end of a 45-minute telephone conversation on April 16. "...while both countries have cooperated on certain security issues," said the Wall Street Journal. "...including allowing US drone flights to identify fentanyl labs, Shinebomb has consistently rejected any form of military intervention from the US on Mexican soil." She's shy of bombs. That might be dropped on them. We don't accept invasions or interference, she said last month.

Starting point is 00:44:49 We are not a protectorate or a colony of any foreign country. However, some in the Trump administration are taking no for an answer. They're reportedly considering launching drone strikes on drug cartels in Mexico anyway. The Crisis Group detailed last week, they said, if the decision is ultimately carried out, it would be the first time since 1914 that the U.S. conducts unilateral military action in Mexico. Some officials in Washington appear to be laying the groundwork for military action against drug trafficking organizations in Mexican territory with or without Mexico's

Starting point is 00:45:26 consent," said the crisis group in its analysis. Shain Baum says we can work together, but you in your territory and us in our territory. In early February, she agreed to mobilize 10,000 Mexican troops to assist in expanded efforts to counter cross-border trafficking." And again, has this worked? They stopped the fentanyl from coming across and of course they did that as response to Trump saying we're gonna put tariffs on you because fentanyl and immigration and things like that but of course he said the same thing about Canada where neither of those things are happening. Trump agreed to delay a planned

Starting point is 00:46:04 25% tariff on Mexico as a show of goodwill following her troop deployment decision. By mid-February, the US State Department designated six Mexican cartels as foreign terrorist organizations. In addition to El Salvador-based MS-13, the Venezuelanan based Trendy Gang, Tren de Aragua. I guess, I don't know, I don't speak Spanish. The terror designation provides more avenues for the US government to target the finances of these transnational criminal organizations.

Starting point is 00:46:36 They could also raise the possibility of military action. So we call them a terrorist organization. We're giving ourselves permission to invade your country. Following the terror designation, Scheinbaum reiterated her opposition to any U.S. intrusion into Mexico's territory. I do think that they are terrorist organizations. Let's understand that the drug war, which may turn into a physical war, a hot war, the drug war created all of this stuff, right? Al Capone and a lot of these other guys got pretty far with only about a decade of alcohol

Starting point is 00:47:16 prohibition. We've had this thing running for, what was it, 70, was it 71, I think we did that? So we're 54 years into this, are we? And they've had a lot of time to get involved, and it's not just drugs. Now they're involved in all kinds of stuff. Human, sex trafficking, all kinds of stuff. They've diversified, and it's huge. But what we did was this is the effect of prohibition. Again, I don't support any drug usage,

Starting point is 00:47:46 and you gotta ask yourself, why did America not have a drug problem when we didn't have prohibition? When you could walk into a drug store and you could buy over the counter cocaine, where you could get it in your Coca-Cola or whatever, right? When Sherlock Holmes could have a 7% solution of this or that. Why was it?

Starting point is 00:48:10 Well, I think there were spiritual issues, but I think, you know, the things that are wrong with our society. But I also think that the prohibition has been counterproductive for all of that. Counterproductive. They had people who were addicted to drugs. They had people who were, and the biggest drug that everybody was addicted to was alcohol.

Starting point is 00:48:31 And as I've said before, if I had been a politician in Congress or something, I would have said, yeah, let's try prohibition of alcohol because it's so horrible. A lot of people say it's more addictive than heroin. I don't know. But I would have gone along with that, but then they realized that it was a mistake and when they also decided they were going to prohibit it, they respected the Constitution

Starting point is 00:48:51 enough to do the 18th Amendment. Then they put in the 21st Amendment to reverse the 18th Amendment. But they had respect for the Constitution and they looked at it and they said prohibition is not working. So then they just said, well forget about it. We won't even bother with the Constitution. We'll just do it with regulatory stuff. And what they have done is they have given a monopoly to some very dangerous criminals. And they have made more and more powerful versions of what is being prohibited. And it has corrupted law enforcement. And it has corrupted the courts. And it has corrupted law enforcement and has corrupted the courts and it has destroyed our rights and other things with the SWAT teams, gives them an excuse to do SWAT teams and civil asset forfeiture. Drug prohibition creates its own problems and one of the problems

Starting point is 00:49:36 that it has created are the cartels. Now we want to have a physical war and go into Mexico. We're going to take a break and when we come back we and going to Mexico. We're going to take a break. And when we come back, we're going to talk about Trump's desire to return to Alcatraz kind of a film sequel, I guess we could say we'll be right back. The The The Making Making sense. Common again. You're listening to the David Knight Show. Alcatraz, the Rock. No one has ever escaped from this prison. This is Frank Morris. Armed robbery, burglary, grand larceny.

Starting point is 00:51:50 Morris has escaped from many prisons. But Alcatraz could be the exception. Some men are destined never to leave Alcatraz. Alive. This island is solid rock. No one's ever busted out. No one's ever made it. Since I've been warden, a few people have tried to escape. Most of them have been recaptured. Those that haven't have been killed. I may have found a way out of here.

Starting point is 00:52:08 No one has ever escaped from Alcatraz. I'm in. Me too. And no one ever will. There are twelve counts. And I'm in. I'm in. I'm in.

Starting point is 00:52:16 I'm in. I'm in. I'm in. I'm in. I'm in. I'm in. I'm in. I'm in.

Starting point is 00:52:24 I'm in. I'm in. I'm in. Icatraz. I'm in. Me too. And no one ever will. There are 12 counts every day. One, hold it. One long count. We count the hours. Tuesday night we go. Shake down. The bulls count us.

Starting point is 00:52:40 And the king bulls count the counts. No one has ever escaped from Alcatraz and no one ever will. See you later man. Goodbye and no one ever will. In 1962 that statement was no longer valid. Clint Eastwood is Frank Morris in Escape from Alcatraz. Well that's kind of interesting isn't it? I think I thought it was cool going back and looking at Patrick McGuinn, the prisoner, who is now the warden. I guess he's now number two. Or number one. I don't know. But yeah, that's a 1979 movie. Alcatraz was there for 30 years. I think it closed the year after that guy escaped. If

Starting point is 00:53:24 he did escape, they say if he did escape. They say he didn't escape. They said he drowned. So there's back and forth, right? There's been so many movies about Alcatraz. You know, perhaps that was what Trump was thinking about over the weekend. You know, he sees John Voight. You know, those subsidized films. We've got to have more films. Hey, you know, all these Alcatraz films I've seen. Because, you know, we've had The Birdman of Alcatraz. They had Burt Lancaster, always had big stars in it. This one with Clint Eastwood and Escape from Alcatraz. Both of those were based on true stories. And then there was one by Michael Bay, The Rock, with Sean Connery. He had a good cast.

Starting point is 00:54:03 But and of course, it originally began. Alcatraz originally began not as a prison but as a military base and so in that Michael Bay movie that's a fictional thing where there's some some terrorists, of course, you know, white American terrorists take over the base and so they get an older guy who had escaped from it, okay, kind of alluding to the escape from Alcatraz. They bring Sean Connery back in because he knows how to get in. You know, you got out, you can get back in. We need to get you inside and shut this type of thing down. So that's their fictional hook to it. But it does kind of go back to the fact that it was a military base in a sense. So Trump has said he plans to revive Alcatraz Island's historic role as a

Starting point is 00:54:53 maximum security federal penitentiary. Here's the thing, you know, Trump, how about if you kind of focus on stopping your genetic code injection, that'd be a good thing to do one day. Instead it's like, Oh, let's tariff the movies. Let's do taxes on services and intellectual property and all the rest of the stuff. Let's rip this up. Oh let's reopen Alcatraz. Hey how about undoing some of the damage that you did the first time through this genetic code injection? No, he'll never do that. Never do it. Anyway, originally constructed as a military fortress off the coast of San Francisco, Alcatraz served as a correctional facility for nearly 30 years.

Starting point is 00:55:32 Before its closure, six decades ago, subsequently transforming it into a popular tourist destination. You have to get about a million people a year. It's one of the national parks now. Trump said he had instructed the Department of Justice to quote reopen and a substantially enlarged and rebuilt Alcatraz, all uppercase Alcatraz, to house America's most ruthless and violent offenders. He said it will no longer be held hostage to criminals, thugs and judges that are afraid to do their job and allow us to remove criminals who came into our country illegally."

Starting point is 00:56:06 Kind of a knee-jerk reaction here. Positioned in a remote location about two kilometers off the California coast, it's about a mile and a quarter, Alcatraz, often referred to as the Rock, is notorious for its supposed inescapability of 36 inmates who attempted to flee, none were confirmed to have succeeded, though five remain listed as missing and presumed drowned. That's what escape talk, it's about, it's what the rock actually kind of follows up on, you know, the idea that these guys did make it because they didn't find their bodies.

Starting point is 00:56:44 The structure atop the island was initially erected in the 1850s as a military citadel to safeguard San Francisco Bay. The Department of Justice assumed control in 1933 utilizing it as a prison until 1963, the year after the guy escaped that they said didn't escape or whatever. Kind of interesting, isn't it? I mean, if they had... It was very expensive to run. And if they did, in fact, have five people who escaped from it in 1962, maybe that might have something to do with them shutting it down in 1963, you think?

Starting point is 00:57:20 Anyway, it is a culturally significant landmark regarded as a symbol of governmental pushback against rampant crime in the early 20th century. What was that rampant crime about? Prohibition, right? That gave rise to these drug deals. As a matter of fact, Al Capone was there. And so they used it in the first failed drug war in Prohibition. It was eventually deemed to be too expensive to maintain compared to similar facilities

Starting point is 00:57:48 because of the supply chain issues of being an island and that type of thing. Today Alcatraz is a national historic landmark. It's part of the National Park Service, as I said before. Gets over a million visitors annually. So Nancy Pelosi, whose district includes Alcatraz, how fitting, she should go there someday. Ha ha ha ha ha ha. Dismissed Trump's announcement as not a serious one.

Starting point is 00:58:16 Later in the day, the president told journalists that reopening the prison was, quote, just an idea I've had. Well, I don't know if that means that... Well, I'm not pursuing it anymore because everybody is pursuing it. He puts these orders out and immediately the yes men and the sycophants hop to it. That's their job. Just like Ludnik.

Starting point is 00:58:35 Yes sir, I'm on it. Yes sir, whatever. No matter how absurd. That's my mission today is to do this and I will work on it really hard until Trump changes his mind. And if the chump changes his mind then we can move on to something else. Perhaps it will be something useful. So he noted that when the United States was a more serious nation the government did not hesitate to lock up the most dangerous criminals.

Starting point is 00:59:03 Forget about the stuff about kinder and gentler America that George H.W. Bush was pushing. Yeah, that was smoke and mirrors anyway. But yeah, now Trump wants a more serious nation. Rebuild and open Alcatraz, all uppercase he wrote. He said, when we were a more serious nation and times passed, we did not hesitate to lock up the most dangerous criminals and keep them far away from anyone that they could haunt. Well, we're not hesitating to do that now, except the most dangerous criminals to them are not the people who do crime to us for

Starting point is 00:59:31 the most part. The most dangerous prisoners they put in the communication management units, that�s their domestic gitmos. You know, people like Marty Gottesfeld, who are actually political prisoners. People like Schaefer Cox, I think his name is Francis Schaefer Cox, but he goes by Schaefer Cox. People like that. They want to cut off their communications. They want to keep them in solitary confinement. What's dangerous to them is speech. That's why they are so intent on shutting down free speech everywhere. So yeah, our country unfortunately is really serious. Really serious. You don't think that we're serious? You should look at these CMS prisons. So he says, so today I'm directing the Bureau of Prisons together with the Department of Justice, the FBI, and Homeland Security

Starting point is 01:00:25 to reopen a substantially enlarged and rebuilt Alcatraz to house America's most ruthless and violent offenders. We will no longer be held hostage to criminals, thugs, and judges that are afraid to do their job and allow us to remove criminals who came into our country illegally." Well, those aren't actually the most ruthless and violent offenders. Those are people you'll find in the intelligence agencies. So he said, the reopening of Alcatraz will serve as a symbol of law, order, and all uppercase justice and we will make America great again.

Starting point is 01:00:58 Oh yeah. Well, people like Al Capone, Machine Gun Kelly, and many of these other people were there. Again, the birdman of Alcatraz was Robert Stroud played by Burt Lancaster in the movie about him. He was convicted of manslaughter in 1909, but then he murdered a guard in prison in Livingworth and they convicted him of first degree murder. And he got a death sentence that was commuted by Woodrow Wilson to life in prison. And he served out his

Starting point is 01:01:25 life there at Alcatraz. The federal government's response to post-prohibition post-depression America. That's what Alcatraz was from 1934 to 1963. I guess you know post-prohibition well we now have the Al Capone cartels, now have military equipment, so I guess are we post-prohibition, are we now moving into the, from the drug war to the Mexican war to deal with these cartels created by our policy, given incredible amounts of money by our prohibition and and I guess instead of being post-depression America we are now pre-depression America so we've got to have this type of thing well reason says if he's if he tries to reopen this it is

Starting point is 01:02:17 an expensive and unnecessary pipe dream pipe dream reopening Alcatraz be unrealistic and redundant," they said. We got lots of prisons. Lots of prisons already. And we got really bad prisons, like the communication management units, CMUs. That plan would likely require massive investment in a dysfunctional federal prison system that can barely staff the prisons that it currently operates," they said. It lasted less than three decades due to the exorbitant costs of operating an island prison. The Bureau of Prisons will vigorously pursue all avenues to support and implement the president's agenda, however, said the Board of Prisons director William Marshall, because

Starting point is 01:03:00 that's their job. Yeah, they do whatever the president tells them to do, no matter how ridiculous. I have ordered an immediate assessment to determine our needs and what the next steps will be." So, he said, we look forward to restructuring this powerful symbol of law, order and justice. I'm with you, President Trump. On it, right now. Reopening Alcatraz would likely take years of construction and a huge influx of funding and manpower into the Bureau of Prisons. Well, there we go.

Starting point is 01:03:28 I always want more people. And the problem is that they have a culture of corruption, as Reason says, in these Bureau of Prisons. And they've had chronic staffing shortages, facilities that are crumbling, all the rest of these things. And so last year the Bureau of Prisons announced that it would close a women's prison where sexual abuse was so common that it was known as the rape club. The prison guards raping the women. The Biden administration put retention bonuses in place to try to improve or at least maintain

Starting point is 01:04:06 staffing levels. It cost $229 million in incentives in 2024. Yeah, I have to pay them extra to work there. However, when the Trump administration came in under Doge, they reduced or eliminated those bonuses in February as part of the cost cutting measures. As a result, it led to a lot of resignations at numerous prison facilities, reopening Alcatraz would also be redundant. The Board of Prisons already operates ADX Florence, a supermax prison. That's the other thing. I was talking about the communications

Starting point is 01:04:44 management units. That's for our political prisoners and we have lots of them actually. Did you? Are you aware of that? Hope you are. Anyway, we also have supermax prisons and one of them is in Colorado. It holds the federal prison system's most serious and violent offenders. Terrorists, spies, murderers, cartel bosses, wholesome and solitary cells for 23 hours a day." That's what they do with the CMU as well. But they also are more careful even there in the CMU than the supermax about making

Starting point is 01:05:20 sure these political prisoners don't communicate with anybody. In fact, it is called the Alcatraz of the Rockies. No one has ever escaped from there. Former warden Robert Hood once memorably said that ADX Florence, this is the warden who was there, he said, �It is a clean version of hell.� He says, �I don't know what hell is, but I do know the assumption would be for a free person that this is pretty close to it. He told 60 Minutes in 2007. He's proud of that. Proud of that. ADX Florence has

Starting point is 01:05:55 been the subject of several high-profile lawsuits over the effects of prolonged extreme isolation on inmates' mental health. The problem, it would seem, isn't that ADX Florence is too soft, but that it's not outwardly hellish enough for the Trump administration's liking. It's not the sort of crude symbol and spectacle that the Trump administration prefers. And it's not good for TV, because that's what this is all about, right? We talk, you know, tariffs on Hollywood, bringing back Alcatraz and everything. So again, you know, all the tariffs are about TV.

Starting point is 01:06:38 And it's all about entertainment, aren't you entertained? Well, let's take a quick look as we go out. We'll take a look at the 1996 movie about Alcatraz that had Sean Connery in it, the Michael Bay pure fiction, The Rock. Alcatraz, The Rock. This cell block house is the most awesome scum in America. No other prison in history was more carefully constructed to make escape impossible. What's the matter, fellas? What's wrong with the tour?

Starting point is 01:07:11 The tour is over, Bob. But now, the only way to stop the unimaginable I'll come straight to the point. 81 civilians are under my control as of this moment. The battery of VX Gas Rockets is presently deployed to deliver a highly lethal strike on the population of the San Francisco Bay area. ...is to get the one man who broke out of the rock... Oh, I have a unique knowledge of this prison facility. I was, uh, formerly a guest here. ...to lead a chemical weapons specialist and a team of Navy SEALs to break back in.

Starting point is 01:08:02 It's Michael Bay. Oh, pressure. From Don Simpson and Jerry Proctor. And Nicholas Cage. The producers of Tide Gun and Crimson Tide. And Michael Bay, the director of Bad Boys. Sean Connery, Nicholas Cage, Ed Harris. This summer, get ready to rock! Yeah, how do we survive if we don't have Hollywood? It's absolutely essential to our society and our culture, isn't it? Okay, well...

Starting point is 01:08:38 Actually, no. We'll be right back. The Common Man. They created Common Core to dumb down our children. They created Common Pass to track and control us. Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing and the communist future. They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary. But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God.

Starting point is 01:09:20 That is what we have in common. That is what they want to take away. That is what we have in common. That is what they want to take away. Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation. They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us. It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide. Please share the information and links you'll find at TheDavidNightShow.com. Thank you for listening. Thank you for sharing. If you can't support us financially, please keep us in your prayers. TheDavidNightShow.com Alright, welcome back and I want to go over some emails that I've had. This is from one individual said, I found an old

Starting point is 01:10:26 clip of you. This is from Scott Maitland. He says, it's been a long time. He says, wondering how you're doing. I catch the show every now and again, but it's hard to find you on a good platform because I have to go searching for you. I know that's where we are. I have to dwell in the outer fringes of the internet here. If you want to find us, go to davidknight.news. We've got links to where the program is. Don't go to the places and search for us. I mean, maybe you can find me on iTunes. I've gone there, searched for the program, couldn't find it, but once we did find it, we put a link in on our site. It's a lot easier to find it with a link

Starting point is 01:11:05 there than is to go search for it so again if you want to find the program the best place to do that is not with a search function on these various platforms but with just go to David Knight dot news show you where you can get the live show show you where you can get the archives and that type of thing if you happen to be listening and for those who can't find us, if you would like the show and even leave a positive comment, that's a big help. Who knows, with enough comments like that,

Starting point is 01:11:35 we might actually show up in the search results on iTunes or something. Could all, it could happen, you know? Anyway, I found this clip of you, he says from 2020 or 2021. Actually, I found this clip of you. He says from 2020 or 2021. Actually, I looked at the link and it is from September of 2020, actually 25th of September 2020. And in it, I was talking about these vaccines. I want to play you a little bit of this clip because, you

Starting point is 01:12:00 know, I haven't changed in terms of what I've said about Trump, about the lockdowns, about the vaccines, all the rest of the stuff. That's one of the nice things about, you know, I was curious to see it. It's one of the nice things about telling the truth. You don't have to keep, you know, you don't have to worry about being consistent with the stuff. I did, the title of the thing was Trump Walked Into a Trap with Warp Speed Vaccine. I began by talking about that. Now, I don't remember, I don't think I really, you know, I know I didn't believe that he'd walked into a trap. But I was going with the MAGA approach. So that's like, okay, so he was had? Was he had? Okay, well it's time for him to wake up.

Starting point is 01:12:47 Because if he was doing this as Fort E. Chess, if he was doing this to go along with him so he could accomplish some greater good at some point in time. We're going to lock down the entire country, we're going to turn the hospitals into killing factories and all the rest of this stuff. But you know, at some point in the future, if I stay in as president, I'll be able to do great things. Oh really? Well, you know, at that point in September of 2020, they were still coming after him.

Starting point is 01:13:17 Even though he had done everything that they wanted, they were still coming after him. So let me play just a little bit of this for you. We can see we were About five years ago. All right, let's talk about the thing that's gonna save all of us from this lockdown tyranny At least according to President Trump and that's the vaccine Vaccine is gonna be it's the panacea for everything. It's the panacea for the disease. It's the panacea for the economy It's the panacea for the disease. It's the panacea for the economy. It's the panacea for the destruction of the Constitution. All this stuff is cured by a vaccine. We just don't know which of these many vaccines are going to cure it, but maybe all of them will.

Starting point is 01:13:59 And don't worry because they're working on this and we can really trust these guys. As NBC News points out, secret powerful panels will pick the COVID-19 vaccine winners. So the problem for President Trump is now NBC News and all these people are pointing out and I see this all the time from the left. Oh, this is a dangerous vaccine and, and this is all Trump's fault. And it will all be Trump's fault. And he deserves to get the blame for this when people are injured with this vaccine that he funded at a hundred times the level of what Bill Gates has

Starting point is 01:14:33 done previously. He deserves a blame and he'll get it. And he's already getting it for doing it. Here's the example from NBC news. These people are working under a cloak of secrecy meant to prevent undue influence. But in the Trump era, it's all Trump. Some worry the anonymity could actually invite it. So they're not going to criticize Fauci. They're not going to criticize the CDC. They're not going to criticize Burks. They're not going to criticize the WHO. Trump will get all the blame for this because he played along with these people. He tried to be nice. I thought they would

Starting point is 01:15:09 like him. He'd be part of the club. Yeah, I'll fund your vaccine. And then I come after him stab him in the back the same way he stabbed us in the back. The effectiveness of Corona vaccines that US taxpayers have helped to fund, including products from Moderna, AstraZeneca, Johnson & Johnson and others. These data monitoring boards will be operating in secrecy and the lack of transparency is exasperating, says NBC. Any political pressure to rush pharmaceutical companies or lean on federal regulators. And see, we've seen this in the last week we've seen CDC come back and say no you can't have it before the election Trump we're not gonna let you use this vaccine to take

Starting point is 01:15:55 away the veil of fear and lies that you allowed Fauci to put over the United States no no we're not gonna let that happen until after the election at the earliest and then we'll probably keep it around a little bit longer after that too. And so now you've already got the bureaucracy pushing back against Trump. He's getting all the blame for being the biggest pharmaceutical cheerleader we've ever seen and he deserves it. Calls are growing, they say. And so when that board members have any conflict of interest, you mean like Fauci and Gillian? Are you kidding me? Do members have any conflict of interest, you mean like Fauci and Gilead.

Starting point is 01:16:25 Are you kidding me? Do they have any conflict of interest? Montsef Slowy made $10 million out of a single press conference with his Moderna stock because that's the only product they've ever produced. Press conferences. That's how they've raised millions and millions of dollars and made millions themselves. We'll be right back. Stay with us.

Starting point is 01:16:44 All right. We were talking about the vaccines and as you see the headlines on a regular basis, the fact that you've now had the FDA, the CDC coming out and saying, no, I don't think we're going to have a vaccine before the election. And I don't think you ought to be pushing us to do this. And I think as now Redfield has said at the CDC, masks are more guaranteed to protect against the virus

Starting point is 01:17:06 than the vaccine. The masks that don't work will protect you more than the vaccine that won't work. And again you got Bill Gates attacking the FDA because they're talking about other treatments other than his vaccine. But we've seen all of these coming out from the usual suspects, the Washington Post, Bloomberg, Trump's promise of an October vaccine risks a letdown or a rejection. Another one, Trump contradicts health advisors on vaccine timetable. He continues to push and the way they're pushing back and it's a it's a pretty easy setup quite frankly because Trump is dead wrong on this operation warp speed he's walked into a trap trying to sit on the fence trying to appease these people and it's pathetic to watch and it's very dangerous what

Starting point is 01:18:02 he's creating. Yeah, he didn't walk into a trap. Uh, I didn't believe that then. And I'm absolutely certain of it now, especially if you look at the aftermath of this, we know that he was on board with this stuff all the time, all the time. Maybe he was deceived. Maybe he's that stupid, just like the MS 13 thing on the knuckles. All right. But, um, he was fully on board with that.

Starting point is 01:18:25 And so was Alex Jones. And so was the audience. Listen to some of the comments that I got here. So the vaccine is there just to get rid of their excuse of not having a vaccine so we can open up. That's the mindset of the people I was trying to talk to there. This one.

Starting point is 01:18:41 How about no thanks, we don't need a vaccine for something over 99% recover from if they ever get it. People are that stupid. Okay, they understand. Here's another one. Remember, Trump said it had to be safe and that would allow indemnification. And so, you know, again, don't worry, he's going to make it all safe.

Starting point is 01:18:59 Another one. Just calm down, David. Don't forget what happened to JFK when he went to fight the organization more powerful than him." I hear that excuse a lot. I've heard that excuse for JFK Jr. as well. So yeah, just calm down. We got lockdowns, we got masks, we got genetic code injections on the way that we know what that mRNA stuff is.

Starting point is 01:19:24 We already knew what that was. And the guy says, learn to choose your wars. Hey pal, if you aren't going to fight lockdown, masks, genetic code injections, a non-essential destruction of the middle class, a small business, if you're not going to fight that, what are you going to fight? You coward. Just again, these are the people. This is the audience that I was speaking to at Infowars. Don't go all suicidal, he says,

Starting point is 01:19:54 and waste all your efforts in the end. No single president can go up against the global agreement between countries to play out this planned pandemic scenario. So then what good is a president that you defend? What good is he if he can't do anything? They'll kill him if he does anything. Okay, well then, why you care about that? Figure out how you're going to get rid of Washington in your life. Focus on what's local. Focus on that. Focus on how you can cut off Washington, how you can work on nullifying what they're doing. No, no, no, no, we're still going to cheerlead for Trump. You know, so pick the fight. This isn't a big deal. 2020 is not a big deal. It's like, are you kidding me? Are you

Starting point is 01:20:34 kidding me? These people still think this way. I still think that 2020 is a big deal, frankly. So he says, don't let your emotions get the best of you. Just chill out. Or you, he says, will be a joke. So I'm the joke. I'm the joke for pointing out what Trump is doing with the lockdowns, the mass, the genetic code injection, the medical martial law. I was the joke. No, pal, you're the joke. You're the joke. So you'll just be a joke. You'll be lost and wiped out in history by the victor. Well, that probably is true, but I don't care. I'm not doing that. Are you doing this, folks? Are you living your life for how you're going to be remembered by anybody? Are you living your life so you can stash up riches somewhere or this or that? That's not what we live for. I work for one person, the Lord Jesus Christ. And I'm going to tell the truth as I see it. Maybe I get

Starting point is 01:21:37 it wrong. Maybe you don't agree with me. But I'm going to tell you what I see. No apologies for that. And I think quite frankly that report has aged very well. These comments have not. One person responded to that and said, well, actually I prefer the truth that he's saying. I prefer the truth as well. I prefer not to live by these lies that these people are trying to invent in order to make an excuse for what Trump is doing then and now. Another person says this SOB Knight is voting for Sleepy Joe. He thinks he would do a better job than Trump.

Starting point is 01:22:13 He knows damn well once they criticize his white wife Hooker daughter that he'd start crying and quit on all Americans. Knight is a joke. Okay, that, �Yeah, that�s one of the biggest BS cover-up lies ever.� Another person is starting to understand. He says, �It makes me seriously concerned that he�s part of the swamp. Trump is part of the swamp. Well, this is, you know, that was sent to me by Scott Maitland. He says, I've got a YouTube channel called Meatheads, our government, Meatheads are governing America.

Starting point is 01:22:58 MAGA, Meatheads are governing America. Formally known as the liberal circus, the channel started out making fun of the insanity of liberalism. And I had no idea I was building an audience of extreme Maga loyalists. And maybe he was referring to all in the family, the son-in-law, Rob Reiner, meathead, right? Meatheads were governing America, but now a different kind of meathead is still governing an America.

Starting point is 01:23:26 We're governing America, but now a different kind of meathead is still governing America. So when I criticized Trump over his push for the genetic code injection, he says, my audience freaked out and I've since lost about a thousand subscribers and my views are in the tanks. My problem, not yours, he said. It is my problem. Same thing. Same thing. I made the choice, he said, to dig in, not to give them what they want. Red meat because they're meatheads. He said,

Starting point is 01:23:50 he says, YouTube has lifted some restrictions. For example, I've talked about what the vaccines did to my family on several videos and have not been censored or demonetized. So I want to try to use this clip I'm sharing in my next video, I'll be posting in a few hours if that video doesn't get banned I want to start reacting to more of your content and I'll place links directly to your sites and he asked me for any links and so I sent him as a you know something to recommend viewers to his I I Said well, you know, you might want to start with a Derek bros interview that Derek did with me he It's up on my Twitter feed and what he was doing was this is the first time that Derrick had interviewed me. I've covered his articles

Starting point is 01:24:33 many, many times. He does a great job and he was trying to introduce me to his audience and so, you know, we talked about how I got into this and what was happening at Infowars and my worldview and some things. So he had a short clip on Twitter and then a link to the full interview. So I sent that to Scott. So I did take a look at this. This is from another listener, Josephine. I said, I've been begging people to boycott China for years.

Starting point is 01:25:03 Why is this a bad thing? Finally, we will not be under their thumb. I'm not seeing where I am so wrong. China has desired to rule us or just to kill us for years. I'm not MAGA, I'm not a Trumper. I've followed and supported your show for only a little while. And yes, she has supported us and one of the few people who do support us. And so I really do appreciate her doing that.

Starting point is 01:25:26 She says, I'm a widow who works hard. I can't find the word retire anywhere in the Bible. I like that. She says, I'm buying a farm and preparing for the worst, although the best is Christ's return. But the Bible says tribulation comes first. She said, I do believe that we need to empty our shelves of China and restore as much made in America as possible. But anywhere else doesn't upset me either. What is so wrong with working together

Starting point is 01:25:58 to bring industry back? I wish we had worked to buy elsewhere first so the shelves don't empty. But China is evil. Yes, I've been there. My parents were missionaries there for four years. We learned a lot. All of our literature has been copied and other people's names on the books, the poems and songs, etc. Yeah, that's the Bible they copied and altered it to suit their purposes and things like that. Yeah, that's exactly right.

Starting point is 01:26:32 But you know, when we look at this, that intellectual property theft, that's just another part. When you look at the China price, right, based on intellectual property theft, based on based on slave labor, based on currency manipulation, based on a monopoly of power. Those four things right there. Think about that in terms of the technocracy. Isn't the technocracy based on artificial intelligence? Isn't that based on intellectual property theft? Isn't all of it based on slave labor? That will be not necessarily your slave labor, it will be the labor of mechanical slaves, robots.

Starting point is 01:27:13 That's what the term robot means in Czech, the Czech language. When you talk about currency manipulation, how about a digital currency? Yeah, they can manipulate the currency. They can manipulate it that way, can't they, as well? And they talk about a monopoly on power. That's what the Green New Deal is about. That's why when Trump got in, he said, well, you don't want to build your factories here, you know, your factories without human workers, factories that are going to have the mechanical robots in it, the mechanical slaves. You don't want to depend on the infrastructure there, the grid. That grid is old. It's fallen down. It's vulnerable. Put your own power source right there at your factory. So again, all of those

Starting point is 01:27:56 things, low-cost energy, low-cost labor or no-cost labor, intellectual property theft, manipulating the money. Those are all aspects of technocracy and I think it's one of the things that makes it difficult for us to see what's going on with China. A lot of people look at China, of course China was a communist country under Mao, pure communism, mass murder of nearly a hundred million people and yet as it changed over the years it became the darlings of the globalists who

Starting point is 01:28:27 made it a beta test site for technocracy. We're going to go there and set up our great firewall of China where nobody can – we're going to control what people see on the internet. We're also going to do the biometric surveillance and the traffic system, you know, social credits, tie that into that, stop people from being able to work or to buy or to sell or anything like that with this digital currency. All of these different things that are there. China has been used as the beta test site for a kind of technocracy, a globalist technocracy.

Starting point is 01:29:07 And so these same things are being applied to us, just like they use it as a test site for all the lockdown and all the rest of the stuff that was done. See, the pandemic came from China, but the pandemic was the lockdown, the masks, all the rest of the stuff being mandated by China, and there were just a couple of months behind them. It wasn't some virus that escaped the lab. It was the beta test site for the technocracy for the

Starting point is 01:29:32 lockdown and the rest of the stuff. They did it even harder there than they did elsewhere, but China still fulfilled that role. And so we look at tariffs, as I've said many times, I have no problem with tariffs in principle. I have a lot of problems with China. I have no problems with tariffs in principle. My problem, because I've talked about how it's a form of taxation, obviously, and I have said I would prefer that form of taxation or any form of taxation, as a matter of fact, to the income tax.

Starting point is 01:30:01 I think that is the worst possible form of taxation that we could have. And so I have spoken in the past about tariffs for a very long time. I talked about the fact that when we had government that was small enough to fit in the Constitution with Thomas Jefferson, he said, I've eliminated useless offices and so forth, and so I've been able to eliminate all internal taxes so that no farmer, laborer, mechanic knows the tax man is all funded by tariffs. But that was a very small government, a very small government. And then later on you had the tariffs that were done, the Dingley tariffs that were done in the 1800s that Trump pointed to. That was not an engine of creation. What it was, was an engine of crony capitalism and protectionism. What was the engine of production was a virtually unregulated, as far as the federal government

Starting point is 01:30:53 goes, virtually unregulated society and the freedom for people to be able to innovate, produce, create businesses, manufacture things. That was the secret of success. Trump is absolutely wrong that tariffs were what made America great and prosperous. No they didn't. It was not having a big federal government around and a lot of rules and regulations where the federal government is stomping on our face in a Royal land fashion. And then we had a couple of other famous tariff episodes in the 19th century and 20th century. We had, and both of them are tied to a fourth turning. There were the

Starting point is 01:31:36 tariffs of abomination that the industrialists put on the South, massive, massive imposition industrialists put on the South, massive, massive imposition of tariffs. When you raise tariffs by an extreme amount, that's what we're talking about with the tariffs of abomination and with the Smoot-Hawley Act that I talked about yesterday. In both of those cases, it was a tremendous shock to the system. And both of those cases were really tied to a fourth turning. The terrorist abomination were met by threats of nullification and there was a nullification crisis. They were able to diffuse that because it was the 1830s and it was too soon to have a fourth turning.

Starting point is 01:32:16 But all of that resurfaced again in the 1860s as we had the industrial powers replacing the agrarian powers and the creation of a centrally controlled nation state. Same thing happened in Europe in multiple places. In Italy, it was exactly the same four years. Slavery was not the issue. It was a fourth turning. It was going from agrarian to industrialized society, going from a decentralized government to a highly centralized government. Those were the issues. And then we go forward to the Smoot-Hawley terrifying. The financial crisis that predicated that fourth turning in World War II was exacerbated by Smoot-Hawley. It was a massive shock to the system again. It was an attempt to isolate the United States from a shaky

Starting point is 01:33:05 global economy like we have now. And those kinds of repercussions went around globally and helped to start the Second World War. So both the terrorists of Abomination, Smoot, Holly, they were kind of tied to a fourth turning, two previous fourth turnings that we've had of the Civil War, of the depression of World War II. And so my problem with what Trump is doing is not tariffs per se, but the way it's being done. There was absolutely no thought, no forethought, no planning, just like we're looking at with these film tariffs.

Starting point is 01:33:41 There was no consideration or understanding as to what was going on. There was no strategy. understanding as to what was going on. There was no strategy. These tariffs will not fund the government. They will not replace the income tax. They will not protect any strategic industries. This was a slap in the face to everyone globally to try to exacerbate things. Trump is there to create chaos, to create war, to accelerate the demise of our societies as they are right now in a fourth turning. We're now in the last four years, the fourth turning, and that's his purpose.

Starting point is 01:34:16 And that's what's going to be accomplished with these tariffs. Animosity, hatred, war, sanctions against people. This is not about fixing it, well it is about resetting the world order, right? But by destroying everything and resetting it. That's the purpose behind this. Now, you can say, as I was telling people, that maybe Trump doesn't know what he's doing. Maybe he's stupid. Maybe he's trying to be complicit with these people.

Starting point is 01:34:44 I think he knows exactly what he's doing. I think he knows exactly what he's stupid. Maybe he's trying to be complicit with these people. I think he knows exactly what he's doing. I think he knows exactly what he's doing. He's there for round two of chaos and lockdown and the rest of this stuff. And the way he's doing it is with vacillation. There is absolutely, if he can, the only hope that we have that it isn't going to get really, really bad and drive us into really harsh economic times is if he backs off of this stuff. And that's what everybody's hope is, and we can hope for that.

Starting point is 01:35:12 You should pray for that. Because if he's going to be insistent upon this, he's going to do a great deal of damage. And damage is already being done that he doesn't care about. Because the small businesses don't have lobbyists that are going to come around and talk to Howard Letnick like the automobile industry or whatever. And so clearly with the automobile industry there was no plan. It was four years ago, five years ago, he was telling all of them automobile manufacturers, distribute your production between the US, Mexico and Canada.

Starting point is 01:35:43 Then he comes around and he pulls a rug out from underneath them immediately, instantly. And as I said, I don't agree with Biden's goals for the Green New Deal. I do agree with Trump's goals for trying to get China out of our life. But either way, both of these people, like petulant tyrants, demanded that it be done immediately. You go right now to electric vehicles, or you go right now to something that doesn't have China in it. We are interwoven with China.

Starting point is 01:36:13 You're going to have to undo those threads in an orderly, planned way, and it's going to take a little bit of time, or you're going to rip apart our society as well. And that's what he's working on. I'm absolutely certain that's what he's working on. I'm absolutely certain that's what he's working on. And so this is where I think we are. And if you disagree with me, that's fine. But that's the way I see this. In the same way, it's a continuation

Starting point is 01:36:40 of what this traitor was doing five years ago. Well this is from another listener this is from Sam he said as you said it's all about them their position their status it's not about what's good for the people their district their state their country it is beyond nauseating and what he sent me was an article saying James Clyburn says that quitting Congress would be to quote give up my life and that is it is sad for them isn't it I've said that many times you know Hillary Clinton talks about the politics of meaning for her politics and running other people's lives and dictating them for her that

Starting point is 01:37:21 is the meaning of life and the same way for all most of these people. This 83 year old Democrat says that quitting Congress would be to give up my life. To hear 83 year old James Clyburn, Democrat of South Carolina, tell it retiring from Congress is tantamount to giving up on life. On Sunday, the Wall Street Journal published a lengthy piece on old Democrat lawmakers who are unwilling to step aside. Although Clyburn quit as House Democrat Whitt in 2023, he still wields influence in the caucus, as does Nancy Pelosi and former Democrat leader Steny Hoyer, who also stepped down from their positions

Starting point is 01:37:58 but retained their seats. Nancy Pelosi actually was out of Congress and then came back in. Not only does Clyburn not intend to retire, he seems offended by the mere mention of the idea. Nancy left her seat. Steny left his seat. I left my seat.

Starting point is 01:38:14 What am I supposed to do now? He tells Wall Street Journal. What do you want me to do? Give up my life? You know, George Washington didn't see it as giving up his life. When he gave up his power, he was called like Cincinnati, the Roman Emperor who went back to the farm, so did George Washington. And George III said he's the greatest man alive to give up that power, to hand it over

Starting point is 01:38:37 to other people. He set up a precedent for the President saying that power is not the most important thing. That was what was unique about the American Revolution. These guys who did it, did it because they wanted freedom and they knew that they could only get freedom if they gave it to other people. That was what they valued the most, liberty, not political power for themselves. And you don't see, I don't see that with any other revolutions, certainly not with French Revolution or these Marxist revolutions that followed in the pattern of the French Revolution,

Starting point is 01:39:15 but I don't see it in the Republicans and Democrats today either. And so with Trump, it's just the uniiparty of power. Keeping power. Hoping that I'm going to live forever. And I'm going to stay in Congress forever because that is my life. Nearly 40% of Congressional Democrats are 65 or older compared to under 30% for Republicans. House Democrats elected 74-year-old Representative Jerry Connolly to serve as a ranking member on the oversight committee They elected him over Alexandria occasional cortex

Starting point is 01:39:52 Despite the fact that he had esophageal cancer Now he's going to be term limited by God you had Darth Vader Ginsburg Died on the bench and was replaced by a conservative Biden decided to run for reelection with disastrous effects for Democrats. And then you have David Hogg who at only 25 years old was recently elected vice chair of the Democrat National Committee. It sparked controversy with his pledge to primary out older and ineffective Democrats. And of course, it's James Carville who is 80 years old himself, exception to the idea. Debated hog on the matter he said I don't understand said Carville. You're not gonna raise money against Democrats or you're

Starting point is 01:40:33 gonna raise and run against Democrats? He would absolutely be I don't know how he's married to Mary Madeline. They're a good example of the political class. It doesn't really care about anything except winning, right? You know, he's with a club, she's with a club. And it's kind of like, you know, they could be... one of them could be rooting for the, I don't know, say the New York Jets and the other one be rooting for the New York Giants. You know, that's the way it is. And so they can have a marriage because they don't really, these are not issues, these issues don't define them. Their being in politics define them. But he's such an irritating guy. The only thing that is that accent that he's got, which is kind of humorous, he's got this heavy New Orleans accent. Anyway, maybe this is the deal.

Starting point is 01:41:28 We're looking at the next generation of Democrats. If the next generation is David Hogg and Alexandria occasional cortex, maybe that's why these people are scared to death. No, no, no, anything but that. Those are the people, Travis, you're going to have to deal with. That's your fight, not mine. I'm glad I'm not your generation here. I have to deal with people like Occasional Cortex and David Hogg and positions of power. I don't know. It doesn't look... unless this... if this country goes for them oh it deserves what it

Starting point is 01:42:06 gets and it's completely lost anyway so I guess that's really what they're worried about but we're gonna take a quick break before we do I just want to read some of your comments here on now rumble Audi modern retro radio good to see you there he says on Obama's last day of office, he signed an executive order mandating that nasal entry was no longer deemed invasive when administering medical treatment. Well, I didn't know that.

Starting point is 01:42:35 Well, they are working on their aerosol mRNA now. So, anyway, on Rumble, NavyDoc04, thank you very much for the tip, I appreciate that. And he says thank you for being consistent. Thank you. Thank you for your support, I appreciate it. On Rumble, Liberty Valor, governments are dangerous entities in the past century. 250 million people died due to government decisions to wage war. That's right.

Starting point is 01:43:02 Yeah, people, conservatives like to talk about how many people the communists have killed, but they don't like to include the wars, many of which were unnecessary. So, kick. Angry Tigers den. Unfortunately, our leaders over the years have put us in a position where China doesn't have to invade us or anything. All they have to do is stop sending us stuff. Yeah, it has been a long-term plan and you can't just flip it out, you know, on the spur of the moment. It's like the SSRIs, right? You start taking the SSRIs and no matter how bad the symptoms are, ooh, it feels like I'm on fire, so they stop taking it. Guess what? Now this psychotic episode where they, you know, it's murder suicide. We see that over and over again. I've had so many people on my show talking about that.

Starting point is 01:43:50 The SSRIs is one person who I talked to about it, ssristories.net, I think. They said, and we were talking about it, you've got to get off of it gradually, very, very, very gradually. I said, yes, kind of like scuba diving, getting the men's. They said, exactly, that's the analogy. They're diving deep, the nitrogen gets the pressure, dissolves the nitrogen in your body, and then if you come up too quickly,

Starting point is 01:44:14 it bubbles out, cripples or kills you. I had some diving instructors who had been underwater welders, and they were both seriously injured from the welding stuff but also they got bent as well so they were just doing diving instruction for kids you know well kids I was in high school at the time but and we had a lot of adults there wasn't like a kiddie pool you don't give scuba diving equipment to children but you can give them a snorkel or something then that's

Starting point is 01:44:44 scuba diving equipment they can blow their you can give them a snorkel or something, then that's scuba diving equipment. They can blow their lungs out. Anyway, the, um, yeah, that's what it's like. It's like, you know, the way Trump is trying, we've been submerged in this system with China and, um, you know, we've been down deep and we got to take a little bit of time and forethought to get out of this thing, or we're going to get bent really bad. Might kill us. Who knows?

Starting point is 01:45:09 That's my opinion. But Angry Tiger's Den. Good to see you there. Of course, he's got his program on Rumble as well as on X. On Rumble, DG8, thank you. He says, David, 95% of DCE, regardless of party, have been instrumental in moving everything to China. Everything Trump has merchandised was made in China, DC along with multinational corporations.

Starting point is 01:45:31 Well, I said that in, for a while off the road, said, well, actually, because there was that video that showed people in China making the Trump merchandise. They may have been stealing it, who knows. But he said that the Trump merchandise was They may have been stealing it, who knows. But he said that the Trump merchandise was made in America. But either way, they have been complicit in that. As I pointed out yesterday, when we look at the fact that we had, what was it, over 50% of the textiles in 1991 were made in the United States. Now it's under 5%, it's 4%, right?

Starting point is 01:46:01 That are made in the United States. How did that happen? As I pointed out yesterday, three months after 9-11, December 11, 2001, you had George H. W. Bush brought China in and gave them most favored nation trading status. Prior to that, China was treated as a trade pariah. They were like Cuba. You could buy stuff from them, but it was difficult. There was a lot of red tape and government permission to get anything out of China just like trying to buy from Cuba and so it was a George W Bush as

Starting point is 01:46:35 everybody is looking at what's going on with the Afghanistan war and 9-11 aftermath and You know the false flag with the anthrax and stuff and all that chaos and the false flag with the anthrax and stuff and all that chaos, he gets China into the World Trade Organization and they gave them most favored nation status. On Rumble, Ron Helton 1 says the trigger for the Civil War was the high tariffs on cotton which made the South the main funder of the federal government back then. Yeah, that's right. That's right. That's why the Terrace of Abomination nearly set it off at that point in time. In 1828 and 1830 they replied with that. It was able to be defused, as I said, because they were not at that particular

Starting point is 01:47:21 timing. Nobody was. But then it's not just the United States, but other people were poised to have a stronger nation-state central control as well as an industrialized society. Before we take a break, I've got a couple of things from David who's from Canada now living in the US. A couple of things happening in Canada that we thought were pretty amazing. A coroner calls a public inquiry for a quadriplegic man who chose MAID, the MAID program, that's the Physician Assisted Suicide, after developing bed sores in a hospital. So as a quadriplegic man, I mean he's, you know, he's not, he's always in a bed or a

Starting point is 01:48:08 chair or whatever, right? But then when they put him in hospital, he got the bed sores so bad, I guess he just told them, just kill me. And of course, in Canada, they will do that rather than give you any medical care. You know, we look at the Democrats dying in office, right? What we're getting from them is politically assisted suicide of a nation, but in Canada they're actually pushing this physician assisted suicide very hard. In Montreal, a woman dies at the age of 32 after being told that she was, quote, too young for breast cancer. We talk about

Starting point is 01:48:43 how bad the medical system is here, and of course it comes from a very bureaucratic government-run health care system. In Canada, she was complaining about symptoms and a lump and all the rest of the stuff. They just dismissed it and said, oh, you're too young to have breast cancer, so they didn't even bother to look. Throughout 2020, she sought answers for a lump in her chest, but it said she was reassured by multiple health care professionals in Ottawa and Montreal that it was a benign cyst without sending her for any imaging to

Starting point is 01:49:17 confirm it. Well, what was going on in 2020? They're telling everybody. No, no, no, no. Even if you are a cancer patient, we don't wanna see you. That was the rules. Those are the rules internationally. See, what Trump was doing was marching in lockstep with all these rules, Canada, Montreal, France, Australia, all of them were doing exactly the same stuff at the same time.

Starting point is 01:49:40 And what they were telling everybody is, we're not gonna treat people with cancer. We got something really important, this COVID pandemic. We've got to clear the hospitals out for that kind of stuff. So of course, they're just not even going to bother to look. And they'll tell her to go home. And then they'll come back and say, you know, we have a lot more people dying.

Starting point is 01:49:58 I guess it really is a real pandemic. But you know, government healthcare, what we have now has been brought in by stealth. It was Hillary who tried to bring it in directly, okay, and she didn't get in directly. But instead with Obamacare, what they did was they brought it in as kind of a crony corporate takeover. The insurance companies came in, they took over the reins of how they're going to pay people and they use that kind of pressure to essentially shut down anybody that doesn't vaccinate everybody, take away their practice. I got a specific example of that coming up here. And so you don't give

Starting point is 01:50:41 all the vaccines, you're out of business, especially as a pediatrician, you're out of business if you don't give all those vaccines, you're out of business, especially as a pediatrician. You're out of business if you don't give all those shots. If you got any concerns about any of them. Children's Health Defense has one lady who was forced out because she wouldn't give the COVID shots. She was gonna give all the other 76 shots that are out there, but she didn't wanna give the COVID shot.

Starting point is 01:51:03 And so they forced her out of her practice, bankrupted her, the insurance companies. That's how they did this through stealth. So Hillary tries to come in and do it directly. Yeah, we're just going to take over all healthcare. That didn't work. So then they use Obamacare to give you a caret. We're going to help you.

Starting point is 01:51:20 We're going to give you some insurance here. And then the insurance is used to twist uh, to twist the arms and to financially bribe and blackmail and threaten if they bribery doesn't work, they will threaten you and actually shut you down using the money, using the insurance. And that's how this operates. That's what Trump is doing in 2020 with all that stuff. And then when you look at the CBDC, Biden comes in just like Hillary Clinton, yeah,

Starting point is 01:51:46 we're going to do CBDC. And everybody's like, well, I don't want to have that. And so then they back off. And then you get what we're looking at right now, which is the crony corporate stable coins. And that's what we're going to talk about when we come back. The crony corporate version of digital currency, just like we wound up with the crony corporate version of HillaryCare. We'll take a quick break and we'll be right back. Decoding the mainstream propaganda. It's the David Knight Show.

Starting point is 01:52:55 On a rumble. DG8, I think he says, David, after Trump brought in Democrats like Oz, we'll be talking about him in a moment, RFK Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, Musk, his cult brought in Democrats like Oz, we'll be talking about him in a moment, R.F.K. Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, Musk, his cult applauds his uni-party administration. I'm sure if he had brought in Hillary and Carville, they would have called it 3D chess. Well, you know, probably Carville would have been a smarter advisor than the people that he's got in there. Equally evil, but you know, smarter and that stuff.

Starting point is 01:53:23 So anyway, let's take a look at some of the financial stuff. Gold is going up. Crude is crushed as stocks big wind streak ends abruptly, abruptly. And the odds for a rate cut have gone down. People are thinking that there's not going to be a Federal Reserve interest rate cut. Well, the anti-Trump media is awfully quiet about this story now, says a Trump follower on Town Hall. Now what story would that be? Oh, well now this person is blaming the anti-Trump media for pointing out the stock market tanked

Starting point is 01:54:01 because of concerns about what Trump was going to do with tariffs. You know, the presence of the tariffs, but then more importantly, the back and forth, back and forth, back and forth and locking people down. So it reacted that went down severely and everybody was talking about that. And already we had people like Cat turd and DC Drano and things like that when so it takes a big dip and then it comes back up like the next day and they go see all of you just panicked and you're wrong the stock market is back up then it went back down again and down and down and down and then it's had you know several days as I pointed out yesterday several days of going up and up and down and down and then it's had you know several as I pointed out yesterday several days of going up and up and up and that's abruptly down again

Starting point is 01:54:50 but as it's going up and up and up and gets back up to where it was again just like it did on a short basis has done this now on a longer dip and back up but still not ahead this person Matt Vespa on Town Hall, says, oh, so you don't want to talk about it. See, you're wrong. The stock market has recovered. Look, both sides want to boast about the stock market as if it was something that was real. Stock market is not real. It's one happy story or whatever. It's one con story, con game after the other. It's not real. And it is, you know, going in massive moves in each direction. The way to think of the stock market is as a derivative. The stock market is a derivative. It's just like the Securitized

Starting point is 01:55:41 Mortgages or like Paper gold or like ETFs or like The stable coins that are coming up and all this other tokenization We're talking about tokenization says tokenization is really taken off. It's going to be there. They're going we're gonna make virtual representations of real world assets They set up a little acronym there, RWA's, RWA's, real world assets. Yeah, we're gonna make virtual representations of those things and then trade the virtual representations

Starting point is 01:56:14 and fractionalize them and mix them with other stuff. How'd that work out for mortgages? We've already had real world assets that were tokenized and it was disastrous. It was a real disaster. And so think of the stock market itself as one of these kind of derivatives because it's not tied to reality. It's not tied to what is good for the economy. You know, you can have a company that does massive layoffs of thousands of people. Guess what? Its stock

Starting point is 01:56:43 is going to go up. Oh look, they just cut their labor costs. The stock market is not tied to reality and the stock market is not tied to the general public good in the economy either. And yet everybody on both sides, Democrats and Republicans, Presidents as well as pundits will point to the stock market to say, see what I'm doing is good and it's work. Stock market is not the economy. The stock market is a manipulated derivative of the economy one way or the other, but it certainly doesn't prove this guy's point. And it isn't that the stock market is doing great with this. It's still very shaky, going up, going down, because people are not sure about what is happening. All it takes is one story to send it up or to send it down.

Starting point is 01:57:34 In April, they were cranking out these stories, he said, about how this would be the worst market period since 1932. Why? Because Trump had initiated his tariff policy to reset the market and to protect American workers. No. It was because he slammed on the brakes, like I said, and then he started whipping the steering wheel left and right, left and right, left and right. Let's see what happens. You know, I did that as a 16-year-old teenager when I had a car, my first car. And, you know, I was being weird there trying to figure out what the limits were. And you mess around you

Starting point is 01:58:05 find out a real stupid way and he's fine he's doing the same thing you know he's they put him in the driver's seat first thing he does is he ramps it up to a really high speed and then slams on the brakes and starts twisting the steering wheel in different directions all the time that's what's going on with it and but this guy said so, it's all over. We've won.� Have you really? Have you really? What a naive op-ed piece that got published on Town Hall.

Starting point is 01:58:34 He said, �Liberation Day dividends are already pouring in.� This guy is as delusional as the people that he's criticizing, but on the other side. So let's talk about dividends pouring in. They're pouring into places like Tether that is tethered to Howard Lutnick, Lucky Lutnick. And so Tether has now got an AI platform to support Bitcoin and to support its stablecoin payments. He says so Tether AI, the forthcoming artificial intelligence platform for stablecoin giant Tether, will feature payments and major cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin

Starting point is 01:59:17 and USD Tether. How much worse could it get? Stay away from this folks. You want to add artificial intelligence to a digital currency right now at the beginning of this thing? This is where this is headed. So they said the company's new AI platform is designed to offer, listen to this, this is their term, quote, personal infinite intelligence. Don't walk away from people like this. Run from them. Run from them. Oh, it's so smart. We're now going to have personal, infinite intelligence. Smart finance. It'll be like the smart cities. It'll be like the smart

Starting point is 02:00:01 cars. It'll be like the smart guns. All those things are for stupid people. Don't be stupid. Stay away from somebody that promises you a smart currency with personal infinite intelligence. And what they mean by that is that it's not smart. You know, when we look at smart, it's at smart as an acronym for self monitoring and reporting technology It'll be monitoring and reporting on you

Starting point is 02:00:31 We they use the way they're using intelligence you think they're implying that this is smart That it's going to help and assist you. No, it's there to spy on you like an intelligence agency and No, it's there to spy on you like an intelligence agency. And it is there to help the government to spy on you. Why do you need to merge AI for this? Except that they want to control you. It doesn't give you more control of your money. And when you look at their, when they post this up,ether.ai personal infinite intelligence a fully grown open source AI runtime capable of adapting and evolving on any

Starting point is 02:01:11 hardware and device no API keys no central point of failure fully modular composable whatever that means I don't know what that means and it's infused to enable US dollar tether and Bitcoin payments. And here's what they say. It also is unstoppable peer-to-peer network of AI technology using billions of AI agents. You know, we talked about this the other day. These AI agents, Visa is pushing to have you use AI agents. They want you to give your credit card to AI so that you can tell it, go do my Christmas

Starting point is 02:01:57 shopping. You know the people I know and you know what they like, so I want you to go Christmas shopping. Here's my credit card. Have at it. Yeah, Visa would love that. know what they like, so I want you to go Christmas shopping. Here's my credit card. Have at it. Yeah, Visa would love that. Get you locked in to all kinds of stupid purchases, excessive purchases that they're going to charge you 30 or 40% interest on when you can't pay them off. And so they're talking about here billions of AI agents. Billions of AI. This is what

Starting point is 02:02:22 Tether is pushing for as well. Let these AI agents spend you into oblivion. Stay away from these people. Tether AI will not use application programming interfaces or API keys. It will not depend on centralized control points. Instead, Tether AI will offer a quote, fully open source AI runtime that will run on an unstoppable peer-to-peer network and be fully modular and composable with billions of AI agents and it will be hallucinating with your bank account. The announcement also says that Tether AI's P2P crypto payments will be infused with this open

Starting point is 02:03:07 source wallet development kit. That's what the WDK was, wallet development kit. Launched in November 2024. They don't want to call it a software development kit. It's a wallet development kit enabling self-custodial or non-custodial holding of the Tether dollar and Bitcoin. And so this is going to be non-custodial. It'll be eliminating reliance on third-party custody solutions. Oh, wait a minute. Wait a minute. Isn't Tether a third party? Aren't these AI agents a third party? And you're granting these AI agents the ability to charge you and buy stuff with your money, which is way more than you grant unless you're hacked, way more than you would grant to some of these exchanges that are going to hold the stuff if you don't take self-custody of

Starting point is 02:04:03 the crypto. Tether AI is part of a broader strategy to expand the company's footprint on artificial intelligence. In April of 2024, last year, a year ago, Tether announced company restructuring to introduce new divisions beyond stablecoin development, including Tether Data, a dedicated unit focusing on AI and P2P development. So Tether AI has been one of the key, has one key goal of providing the quote, ideal technological foundation, quote unquote, to achieve the vision of AI described by Isaac

Starting point is 02:04:36 Asimov. Well, there you go. I guess we've seen a lot of stuff named after Tesla. We had Tesla, the car company, then we had another truck company called Nikolai. So I guess people are going to start naming things after Isaac Asimov, his iRobot series. I read that when I was in elementary school. That's about appropriate level of wanting to actually do that.

Starting point is 02:05:02 They did a couple of, was outer limits. I think Did a episode that was kind of loosely based on one of the episodes in the high robot stories Anyway, I will in the coming decades become part of the very fabric of the universe. They said That's a pretty grandiose stuff, isn't it? I you ought to pour everything that you got right now into the AI stocks and everything else, don't you think? And give these AI agents full custody of all your money. What could possibly go wrong? I'm sure it'll be just fine. Everything is lining up.

Starting point is 02:05:37 Tokenization is having its breakout moment. Because we're not just going to do a derivative of reality with the stock market or with the ETFs or with the securitized mortgages that was a disaster and that other kind of stuff. No, we're going to do that for everything. We're going to make a derivative of everything. That's what tokenization is. It's the derivative of everything. Tokenization of real world assets, which henceforth will be called RWAs.

Starting point is 02:06:03 RWA's. which henceforth will be called RWAs. RWAs. It's evolving from an abstract concept to a practical financial tool as institutional players increasingly test and deploy blockchain based infrastructure at scale. Steve Potinik would be so proud. Except it's still not quantum computing and there's no there's no barcodes on this. On April 30th, BlackRock filed to create a digital ledger technology shares class for its $150 billion treasury trust fund. And so this will leverage blockchain technology to mirror a record of share ownership for investors.

Starting point is 02:06:46 The shares will track BlackRock's Treasury Trust Fund, which can only be purchased from BlackRock advisors or the Bank of New York Mellon. On the same day, maybe with this you could own a piece of the Panama Canal if Trump is able to get it flipped over to BlackRock, although China seems to be trying to block that. Imagine you're the corporation caught between Trump and China and all this stuff and is all of a fictional narrative anyway. On the same day, Libra, now Libra is Facebook, That's Mark Zuckerberg's attempt. Remember, he did a white paper, and he said, let's create a global digital currency. He wanted to call it Libra.

Starting point is 02:07:32 And buried there in the middle of his proposal was one sentence that said it was his plea to the governments to give him the authority to do this. He said, this could become a de facto global ID. Well, yes, that's the purpose. That's what the governments want out of it, a de facto global ID. But of course, what he did not say in there is that then with that global ID, you can completely control the people and make sure that they can't actually have access to their money. You can just take it away just like that. You can change the value of the money just like that or you can punish an individual that you don't like just like that. So Libra, again, Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, announced plans to tokenize half

Starting point is 02:08:16 a billion dollars in telegram debt through its new telegram bond funds. So now they're gonna create tokenized commercial paper, commercial paper, corporate loans. And they're gonna put that out there as a token. The fund will be available to, I love this term, accredited investors. You know what an accredited investor is. You gotta show them that you got a certain amount of net worth.

Starting point is 02:08:44 And just like Tevye, and if I were a rich man, if you've got the money they think you really know, that's going to be the assumption. But it's also because they don't want to mess with every little person. They want to make sure that you've got enough money that you can steal a big chunk of it and not get you so totally irate. They also want to make sure that you're an attractive target for theft. So accredited investors is the phrase that they use. It'll be usable as collateral for on chain borrowing.

Starting point is 02:09:14 Have you noticed this? Eric Trump said this out loud. He said, within 10 years, there won't be any banks. And it's the people who are creating the stable coins. The Trump association is doing it. Facebook is doing it. BlackRock is doing it. We're going to hold your assets, and then you'll be able to use them like a bank. And you can use it as collateral. And you can borrow against it using that as collateral.

Starting point is 02:09:41 And that's what Eric Trump was saying. All these people are doing. They want to replace the banks. That's what these politicians and technocrats are doing. They're moving themselves in there to replace the banks and become banks themselves. The week's biggest headline came from Dubai, where a multi-bank group signed a $3 billion real world asset tokenization deal with United Arab Emirates

Starting point is 02:10:09 based real estate firm MAG. MAG, not MAGA. This is in Dubai. So I guess it's the United Arabs. So it'd be MAGUA. MAGUA. M-A-G-U-A. Sounds like Lester Hickins, MAGUA. The deal is touted as the largest real-world asset tokenization initiative to date. Again, let's take your real-world assets, we'll

Starting point is 02:10:42 make derivatives out of them, they call it tokens, so we can steal it more efficiently and more quickly. We don't even have to call in any lawyers, we just flip a switch and all your stuff belong to us. He added, the growing adoption of big institutions gives the space more credibility, or maybe it gives it less credibility. What do you think? It's Christmas time. I don't know. But I'm surprised we even have Christmas stuff on the board there.

Starting point is 02:11:18 Get your David Knight Christmas album. It's May. It's time for us to start thinking about Christmas. It's only seven months away time for us to start thinking about Christmas. It's only seven months away, you know, less than. But yeah, it's... If I see BlackRock going in and setting up real world assets, tokenizing them, or even taking something that's not real world asset that doesn't need to be tokenized like Bitcoin, and they even tokenize that with an ETF. When I see that, that actually has less credibility for me in that space, as they put it. This individual said that the renewed interest in real-world asset tokenization is primarily driven by Trump's pro crypto administration and his growing regularity, regulatory clarity. Is clarity getting clarity and crypto, not in

Starting point is 02:12:14 tariffs, but we're getting it in crypto. And I would say I agree with that. It's becoming very, very clear that this whole thing is a record pump and dump scam being run by Trump and the Trump family and they are the key figures in all of this stuff. They said more than 10% of global financial assets could be tokenized by the end of the decade, by 2030. One other analyst at Redstone predicted that approximately 30% of global financial systems will be tokenized by the end of this decade. So between 10 and 30% is what they're expecting.

Starting point is 02:12:53 So it's somewhere between, you know, $4 trillion and $30 trillion of real world assets by 2030 so that you will own nothing. If the sector were to achieve the median prediction of about $10 trillion, that would represent more than 50 times the growth from its current value of about $185 billion. So these people are looking to really get rich quick. In just four years, they're going to have a 50-fold increase in the assets that they control. And as I said, Eric Trump says it's going to replace banks and it's going to replace them within the next decade, maybe within the next, this next term. Trump is giving conflicting answers over his meme coin

Starting point is 02:13:34 profits. This is coming from Coin Telegraph. They don't have a political axe to grind, but they focus on the crypto industry. Trump said in an interview that he's quote, not profiting from anything relating to grind, but they focus on the crypto industry. Trump said in an interview that he's quote not profiting from anything relating to crypto, but he quickly admitted that he hasn't checked to see if he made a profit. So again, this interview he had on Meet the Press on Sunday, there was a lot of things that came out of it. You know it. They misused his comment, took it out of context about the Constitution, but it was still very troubling. Because it gets back to the fundamental idea as to where the rights come from, who has rights, are

Starting point is 02:14:16 we going to recognize the rights of people in the United States if they're here, if they're citizens, if they're legal, if they're illegal, what are the conditions under which we're going to recognize rights? And I think that's a very slippery slope. That was really what he was talking about. He wasn't saying, well, I don't know if I have to follow the Constitution. No, he was responding to her questions saying, do you have to give due process to people who are foreign citizens,

Starting point is 02:14:38 especially to people who are foreign citizens here illegally? And that's what he was responding to. He says, well, I don't know about that. She said, do you have to follow the Constitution? Well, I've got lawyers. In other words, what he was responding to. He says, well I don't know about that. She said, you have to follow the Constitution. Well I've got lawyers. In other words, what he was saying was my lawyers are going to tell me whether or not they think that is constitutional and then we'll decide about that. He wasn't saying, well I don't have to follow the Constitution. But there was a lot of things that came out of that and you know his comment about, well you don't need $30 for your kid. You can get two and they're gonna cost you more money and I'm fine with that. I don't care.

Starting point is 02:15:07 We got ours. I don't care. So, there's another thing that he said. She asked him, she said, so you're not profiting off of cryptocurrency at all? He said, I haven't even looked. Haven't even looked. But I'll tell you what, look, if I own stock in something and I do a good job And the stock market goes up. I guess I am profiting

Starting point is 02:15:32 You know, here's the thing his family You know Eric and Don Jr. Are Essentially hunter Biden without the drugs and prostitutes, although they may have some on the side. I don't know I don't know about Don jr. As far as the prostitutes go, but the Basically, you know, they're they're hunter without all the vice Just criminals No vice Trump launched his meme coin the official Trump coin on January the 17th It hit a peak two days later

Starting point is 02:16:06 Just days before he was inaugurated These guys cash out and then it crashes The token has been in a steady decline since the launch But it surged late last month after its website offered listen this top holders of the coin a chance to dine with Trump on May the 22nd and it's currently trading down about 85% from its peak and that's after a big spike. It's still down by 85% but the insiders can still profit. If they make it go up they make it go down they can still profit off of this stuff. Doesn't matter

Starting point is 02:16:41 what the absolute value is, it's what the change is in this value. Trump said during the interview that he would contribute his presidential salary back to the government. Oh, okay. Trump change. We're talking about $400,000. This guy is dealing in tens or hundreds of millions of dollars in this other stuff, or billions. Yeah, I'll give my salary back. It's so little, who cares anyway, right? And so that prompted her to ask if he would contribute his potential crypto earnings as well. Well, I never thought of that. He said, I mean, should I contribute all of my real estate that I've owned for many years, if it goes up a little bit because I'm a president doing a good job?

Starting point is 02:17:19 I don't think so. He said, uh, so it's part of the interview, he made a meandering statement that reiterated his campaign promise to support crypto. I want crypto, he said. It's new, it's very popular, it's very hot, it's trendy, that's all I'm about, I'm about trends. It's new, it's popular, it's hot. And he is going to be raising millions from crypto and his meme coin just this month. Again, the $400,000? Let's chump change based on what he's going to get from his meme coins. CNBC has this article. Trump has

Starting point is 02:17:55 two crypto-focused dinners on the calendar this month. One of them was yesterday. The other one is coming at the end of the month. One aimed at deep pocketed political donors. The other at meme coin millionaires. Both of these are poised to help him rake in millions. And both of them are set up to allow him to launder these donations. The first event was a $1.5 million per-plate fundraiser yesterday among the priciest political fundraisers in recent memories. Well, I mean, you know, when you had Head Seth and all these guys on their Signalgate chats

Starting point is 02:18:34 talking about how they're going to bomb one of the poorest countries on earth, Yemen, and then they turn around and they go to a million dollar plate fundraiser dinner, that wasn't the scandal. The scandal was that they were doing it somewhere where they could be seen. Isn't that amazing? The scandal is not these people bombing another country without any kind of declaration of war, doing it for Israel, doing it for Saudi Arabia. That's not the scandal. The scandal is that somebody could see the big board. You know, they might see what we're up to. You guys are chatting on signal and it's not secure.

Starting point is 02:19:11 That's the scandal, right? And so that was a million dollar plate fundraiser. This is going to be, yesterday was one and a half million dollars. Price is going up for access. Amongst the priciest political fundraisers in recent memory, the second one is going to be on May the 22nd, so you can get to that one if you want to give him a lot of money and launder it through his Trump token. Hosted by MAGA Inc., the Crypto and AI Innovators Dinner was yesterday. Featured special guest David Sacks, who has been helping to rewrite the country's crypto and artificial intelligence rules.

Starting point is 02:19:44 It's all about AI. All about AI. Everything about AI. That very first day when he brings in Larry Ellison who doesn't know anything about medicine but what he wants to do is use AI to create custom-made genetic injections for you. AI and mRNA. And that's who Trump put in at the CDC. He told everybody, I'm going to put in Dave Weldon. Oh, this is great. He's a vaccine skeptic. Well, he was perfectly prepared to surrender his integrity and his objections to mRNA vaccines. He admitted it. And then on his way to the hearing, he got, he got kicked out and replaced with somebody who has been working with DARPA, BARDA, these people on AI and medicine. It's all about AI. AI and crypto, AI and drugs. Everything is AI AI. Connecting and weaponizing all of this

Starting point is 02:20:42 stuff. It's really like, you know like the military industrial complex has become the militarized artificial intelligence complex. M-I-A-I-C. Mike? I don't know. Big Mike. The second gala dinner will be held at Trump National, the President's private club in Washington D.C DC later this month. The guest list will be decided by a blockchain-based contest run by the creators of the Trump meme token.

Starting point is 02:21:12 Instead of cash, you can buy influence with him. Entry is based on how many tokens a user holds, with the top 220 people promised a dinner with Trump himself. If only I could keep down my lunch if I was if I was having dinner with him. I think I would lose my lunch. The contest runs through May the 12th so it'll take them 10 days to calculate who these top people are I guess. No, to tell them that they can come. Accountable.us, a center-left watchdog group that investigates corporate and political influence, described the leaderboard contest as, quote, the most nakedly corrupt self-enrichment

Starting point is 02:21:52 scheme in U.S. presidential history. They said it opens the door for wealthy donors, including potentially foreign actors, to buy access to the president while personally enriching the Trump family. Because crypto wallets are anonymous, pseudo-anonymous, not completely anonymous, but you can go through and eventually track where these people are. You can watch a particular wallet and you can see large amounts of money going there and there are ways that you can eventually find out who that belongs to. That's why they say it's pseudo anonymous.

Starting point is 02:22:28 Unless a holder has a publicly disclosed their wallet address, it's difficult to independently confirm the identities of the top token holders currently leading in the contest in January. For example, crypto entrepreneur, Justin sun upped his token stake in another Trump related crypto project. The, um, this guy, Justin, was the blockchain founder of Tron. He disclosed that he holds $75 million of World Liberty's, that's Trump's company, World Liberty's financial token. Now this is the same guy who was being investigated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, so then he gave $75

Starting point is 02:23:02 million to the Trump family and voila, the SEC drops its investigation. This is a guy who is in your face about his wealth and you know really cocky, arrogant, hubris. This is the same guy that spent I don't know, what was it? $5 billion or something for a piece of artwork what a joke it was remember that artwork that was a banana that was duct taped to a wall he paid millions of dollars for that and then in front of the camera as he takes the banana down from the wall that it was duct taped to and ate it ostentatious and this is ostentatious bribery of Trump with his 75 million dollar donation. Donald Jr. and Eric Trump are pursuing new deals that would enrich the president.

Starting point is 02:23:56 You see, Trump has got two hunters, Don Jr. and Eric. I guess you could also throw in Jared there too as well. It is a rush to cash in that involves billions of dollars with few precedents in American history. A luxury hotel in Dubai, a second high-end residential tower in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, two cryptocurrency ventures based in the United States, a new golf course, and a villa complex in Qatar, an all new private club in Washington. In many cases

Starting point is 02:24:25 these new deals promote over just the last week. Just the last week. Will personally benefit not only Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. but also President Trump himself. The brochure they put out for their $1 billion 80 story Trump International Hotel and Tower plan for Dubai said Challenge everything I guess they are they're daring you Daring anybody to challenge them on their open naked corruption because hey, he's been inoculated against this stuff We've seen so many times that the Democrats have come after him for non crimes that when it's a real crime He can you know say they're doing it again.

Starting point is 02:25:06 Units on sale for the first time at prices reaching 20 million dollars a piece and this was after a giant party held in Dubai this week, Donner, Eric Trump and the new project stop at nothing he also said challenge everything stop at nothing and this was also tied into his big crypto conference that was there as well. That's why so many of these things are happening in just the last week. Don Trump Jr. took a swipe at his alter ego, Hunter Biden, who sold paintings while his father served as president. He says, it's laughable that left-wing media thinks that I should lock myself up in a padded room while my father is president and cease doing what I've been doing for over 25 years to earn a living and provide for my five children." Who would otherwise, if he didn't do these billion dollar deals, who would feed his children?

Starting point is 02:25:56 I really sympathize with him, don't you? I don't know how the family would survive if he didn't do these kinds of deals using his father's connections. But you know, it was reprehensible when Hunter Biden did it, but now it's okay when Don Jr. and Eric do it. He says, however, if I did do that, I guess I could always take up painting, which I hear is quite lucrative. Well, not nearly as lucrative as you guys.

Starting point is 02:26:23 You guys are into much bigger projects than the Biden crime family. The Trump crime family is much bigger. So they said there's been issues in the past, of course. Billy Carter with Jimmy Carter, Neil Bush with George W. Bush, Hunter Biden and so forth, their business dealings, but these are relatives. Trump is, and his two sons are partners in these deals. It'll bring revenues that benefit the president himself directly. But I guess as long as he doesn't look, it's all okay.

Starting point is 02:26:56 Right. And there is a stable coin fever. And this is what you have to be concerned about. Right. The, uh, the artificial intelligence, you know, the AI, the smart contracts, all the rest of this stuff, that's what you have to be concerned about, right? The artificial intelligence, the AI, the smart contracts, all the rest of this stuff, that's what you need to watch out for, the stable coin stuff. This is where it hits you.

Starting point is 02:27:12 This is what you need to stay away from. You need to stay away from these real world asset tokens. Trump and his people are just con men and grifters. But stable coin fever, five major stablecoins are growing the crypto adoption. The stablecoins will be the de facto CBDC. It won't necessarily be just one of them. It could be five, 10, whatever, but it'll have all of them collectively will have the

Starting point is 02:27:40 same functionality as one CBDC. They'll still be able to track everything that you do. They'll still be able to take away all your money instantaneously or just cut you off from it. They'll be able to enact permissions. They've all got the smart contract stuff. So they'll be able to have everything that you do in life be set up as having to get permission. That's where this is going. And so these stable coins are there to get people to adopt crypto, to buy into crypto. And so as they're tokenizing all the real world assets into this subtle trap, and we'll talk about the Obamacare thing and how that insurance scam has taken over the medical industry by stealth.

Starting point is 02:28:28 Bribery, then control and blackmail or shut you down, that type of thing. Wonderful practice you got here. Be a shame if you were to lose it. So inject all these kids with whatever I tell you to inject them with or lose your practice. That's the way they get their hooks into you. And what they're doing with this is the same kind of subtle thing that they did with the medical insurance. So as they start putting stuff into these quote unquote real world asset tokens, make sure that you get something that is real and don't tokenize it.

Starting point is 02:29:05 That is gold, right? Start to set some of this stuff outside of this system. Stay away from it by all means, but you might want to get something into a system that is physical, that has privacy. They don't know that you've got it. It's not available to every thief in the world. Like these crypto things, you can go to DavidNight.Gold. I'll take you to Tony Arnabin, Wise Wolf Gold, and he can help you to start to accumulate

Starting point is 02:29:33 gold or silver on a monthly basis. He's got his Wise Wolf pack, and you can jump in at different levels from very little, like $50 a month or whatever, on up, and you can start to gradually accumulate gold and silver and start getting something that is a real-world asset that is not tokenized. And he can also help you with an IRA, a metal IRA, as well as you can just, you don't have to do it through Wise Wolf. You can handle any kind of transaction, small or large, but

Starting point is 02:30:08 it can also help you to gradually save. And of course, you can do the Wise Wolf things, you can do them all at once even. You don't have to sign up for a month of it. You can still do Wise Wolf on one month, and he's got a lot of different levels there. But again, as they're trying to push everybody into this virtual financial world, so they can rip people off, it's just amazing to see how this thing is ramping up

Starting point is 02:30:32 and to see how deceptive it is and how they're playing people for suckers. Don't get played by for a sucker. Stay out of this stuff, whatever you do. But one of your options is gold, and a great option is Tony Aarderman at Wise Wolf Gold. Well, we're going to take a quick break and we'll be right back. So So So So You're listening to the David Knight Show.

Starting point is 02:32:28 Well, I'm Rumble Ron Helton. So the stock market is a giant casino. It absolutely is. And so is crypto. Do you want to partner with a guy that has gone bankrupt six times with casinos? Of course, this time he's not going to go bankrupt. You'll go bankrupt. Instead of him, the Trump people are going to make out like bandits that they are. Groucho Marx

Starting point is 02:32:53 lamented how he lost everything with that casino. It's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard of. Right? And so that's the case. We look at the madness of crowds and everything. It was also Isaac Newton, a guy who developed, um, calculus as well as Newtonian physics, which still pretty much governs, uh, most of what we do for a practical basis, uh, one of the smartest people ever. And he got, uh, busted by one of these pump and dump schemes. I forget what it is. I think it was a South sea thing. It's either that or the tulip bulb thing.

Starting point is 02:33:28 But it snookered him and smartest guy got snookered by. He could figure out the tides, but he couldn't figure out the madness of crowds. So that's the key thing about the stock market. It's the madness of crowds, the popular delusions that come with it. Well, the Trump administration has now backed down from the

Starting point is 02:33:50 Saying they're going to take funds away from Maine because of the transgender athlete dispute in that interesting is unfrozen The funding for Maine schools and transgender athlete dispute at least part of it. That's the headline from for main schools and transgender athlete dispute, at least part of it. Now that's the headline from LifeSite, where you look at what has actually happened. What he did this time was a little bit different. In the past, and I've given this example to the people who defended Trump for doing the indefensible in 2020, the lockdown and all the rest of this stuff, I said he paid the government. Oh, it wasn't Trump.

Starting point is 02:34:24 It was the bad Democrat government. I said he paid the government. Oh, it wasn't Trump. It was the bad Democrat government. I said he paid them to do that. And it wasn't just Democrat governors who were bad. People like Mike DeWine, who was working with Vivek Ramaswamy as part of his team there. Okay. He was horrible. I'll tell you what, you get the vaccine, I'll enter you into the lottery. Well, you know what? You get the vaccine, you are in a lottery. You are gambling with your life. But you know, he was saying you could win a million dollars. Oh, you know, you could be disabled for life or die or get turbo cancer, heart disease, all this other kind of stuff. So, you know, there's Mike DeWine there in Ohio, you had

Starting point is 02:34:59 Brad Little in Idaho. They were some of the worst governors. They were right there with Whitmer, who Trump is now pals with, evidently, and thinks she did a great job because she was doing this, working for the same people he was working for. So when you, and I've given this example as the trainee stuff, right, in sports. They want to put the transgender athletes in with the girls in their dressing rooms and their showers and so forth. And so Obama says, if you don't do that, I'm going to take money away from you, the Title Nine funding. And Trump says, if you do do it, I'll take the money away from it.

Starting point is 02:35:36 Of course, Biden was saying, if you don't do it, I'll take the money. So they're both using that back and forth. You either, you do what they say about the trainees or you lose your Title IX funding. Well, the same thing is happening in Maine, but in addition to that, the US Department of Agriculture jumped into this situation in Maine and said, we are going to freeze the funding on Maine's child nutrition programming if you put boys in girls sports and so they threaten them with a lawsuit but I think more importantly I think they looked at this and said that's going to be portrayed as us starving poor children and of course

Starting point is 02:36:18 it would be because that's basically what it is you know I don't I don't agree with government schools I don't agree with government school nutrition programs but that's that's the way this thing would be portrayed and the way it would run out there. And so the Trump administration has now backed down and the US Department of Agriculture is not going to withhold money from the child nutrition program. It's kind of asymmetric. Instead, what they're going to do is they're going to go back to the Title IX thing, and that settlement that they reached over that is not going to change the lawsuit that's going on with the Department of Education, Maine in general, with funding.

Starting point is 02:36:55 That'll still happen with Title IX. The Title IX stuff is funding for athletes, for scholarships, for facilities, for general education. It's not about food. So it's not gonna be as easy for them to demagogue. And it looks more proportional to what is happening here. And it's been on and off and on and off, depending on who they're, Republicans or,

Starting point is 02:37:15 gendercrats, that's what you call them, gendercrats. The gendercrap party, that's perfect. I just anyway. Okay So slip of the tongue of Freudian identity, I guess we got through the gender crats So I said say domain went to court fought this unlawful attempt to freeze critical funding for our school lunch program and we won Said the governor of Maine Mills Mills, in a statement. But look, Trump doesn't have any principles here that he's defending. I want to give you an upbeat story here. This is one of the greatest stories that's come out. And we need to look at

Starting point is 02:38:02 not just the corrupt politicians who are trying to destroy us, but we need to look at the ordinary humans out there, the Christians who are doing the right thing. And this is a great, great story. This is a couple who – he saved her life in a swimming pool accident five years ago, and now they're engaged. But try to show the picture, because it's not just that simple. saved her life in a swimming pool accident five years ago and now they're engaged. But try to show the picture because it's not just that simple. She's now paralyzed because evidently she jumped into a swimming pool and shallow and I guess it doesn't say in the story but I'm assuming that she was paralyzed, kind of like

Starting point is 02:38:40 Joni Eriksson Tada, a Christian speaker and writer who had the same thing happen to her. She dove in head first and broke her neck. It was only about a week after their first date, Alan and Brooklyn were swimming with friends and she hit her head on the bottom of the pool. Alan who had just finished a lifeguard certification course saved her from the pool and took care of her until paramedics arrived. Brooklyn spent three months in Denver's Craig Hospital and even though their relationship

Starting point is 02:39:12 was still very new, Alan and his parents were there with her the entire time. Brooklyn told Alan that she would understand if he didn't want to date her any longer. She knew that not everyone would want to be able to handle this situation, but he told her that he didn't want to hear her say that again, and his devotion to her never wavered. He said, lots of people say it's like a coincidence or something, but I just think it's a God thing. That day was hard, but looking back at it, all the things that and all the good things and the blessings that came from it, it's just really amazing to look back and be like, God was with us this entire time.

Starting point is 02:39:55 The couple has shared so much over the last five years. She's been in a neuro-rehabilitation institute, hosted a private prom for the two of them at that institute, helped her to dance with her date. Allen has seen Brooklyn relearn how to drive and watched her embrace a new way of dancing in her wheelchair." So evidently, she's not as severely disabled as Jony Erickson Tata, who is from the neck down. She can't move anything. So evidently this girl still has her arms. To witness firsthand all that she's

Starting point is 02:40:31 got to accomplish and do even with the injury has been nothing less than amazing said Alan. I'm very blessed that I get to have one of the front row seats to that experience and just after Valentine's Day they got engaged. She said, I sit all day looking at the ring and then I'm like, that's probably bad but I just can't stop. I'm so happy, she said. Alan is in awe of his fiance's strength and resilience throughout the journey and Brooklyn calls her husband to be a blessing. Both recognize the part that God has played in it. From their strong initial connection to His role in saving her life, God has provided

Starting point is 02:41:17 for them both during her recovery and now as they prepare to get married. None of these things was coincidental. He saved her life in a pool five years ago. Now they're engaged. See that's the issue. That's what this is really about. It's people like that that can transcend what the politicians are doing to us and always will. And it's going to be that faith in God

Starting point is 02:41:46 that bears fruit in that kind of unconditional love for other people. Well there's something happening in a very tough place to reach people with the gospel. What place would that be? The United Kingdom, the United Kingdom, long been on the cutting edge of leftist ideologies of abortion and LGBT, socialized medicine, atheism, Islam, all the rest of this stuff. Now, they are having some success, some groups are, and being able to reach people with the gospel.

Starting point is 02:42:22 In fact, people have been arrested for thinking in the UK, thinking about their opposition to abortion in a zone that was set up to protect an abortion corporation, or just silently praying to the Lord Jesus Christ. That's grounds for arrest in the UK. And so in that kind of an environment, you now have suddenly people who are able to engage with people. In the past, anybody who presented the story of the Bible would be mocked, there'd be heckling crowds, there'd be police arresting you as a matter of fact.

Starting point is 02:42:58 We see this over and over again. Somebody starts talking about that and a group of Muslims comes up and starts heckling them. The next thing you know is the Christian who is speaking, who is arrested by the police. As I pointed out, when we were there 24 years ago, well, when we were there 45 years ago, there weren't any issues. People would stand up and they would, you know, before the massive influx of Muslims came in, people would be able to stand up in speaker's corner and they would, you know, before the massive influx of Muslims came in, people would be able to stand up in Speaker's Corner and they'd be able to talk about politics

Starting point is 02:43:29 or religion and people who disagreed with them would argue with them, but it was all very civil. We went 24 years ago, took the kids, wanted to go to Speaker's Corner, we always enjoyed that. And what we had then was a very large crowd of all young male Muslims, and they were getting very agitated and angry with this one speaker who was a Christian. And as I talked about in the past, we started seeing these Bobbies start accumulating around the fringes and talking into their lapels with their, and more and more of them were coming, they expected there to be an attack on this guy.

Starting point is 02:44:07 And so they were all coming to show a presence and to deter that and to protect him, to protect his free speech. Now, 24 years later, they arrest that guy because he's inciting these people who are intolerant of free speech. So a person named Scott McNamara founded the King's Army Group that marched near Buckingham Palace recently to proclaim that Jesus is Lord over England. I guess this is McNamara's band. So in a sense, I don't know what they're telling people. I mean, you know, if this is, if they're trying to establish a cultural presence that is counter to Islam, that may be a part of it.

Starting point is 02:44:54 That may be why people are open to hearing it. But you know, on the other hand, evangelism is really a proclamation. It's not an argument, right? We're going to proclaim good news like a town crier in the court square, and since that's what they're doing, I guess. I don't know, I'm just looking at this article, I didn't do any other research outside of it. They said it's been quite normal for Christians to be mocked and ridiculed and heckled, but

Starting point is 02:45:18 there's a difference now. There's a change. They said now we're seeing young people actually come to us for conversations in the street and actually wanting serious conversations and something is radically changed in people's hearts, he said. If you can turn up on the streets with a bunch of flyers and stop someone and say, �What do you know about Jesus?� or �Are you interested in spiritual things?� and just start a conversation, it's not difficult. And that's a remarkable shift for a place like England, he said. When the church wakes up, revival comes, and then there will be another great third awakening,

Starting point is 02:45:53 he says. Well, we can hope that that happens. And we need to regard the UK as largely an unreached people's group. We're gonna take a quick break and we will be right back. You'll owe nothing And be happy Ain't got no cash, ain't got no car But 24 booster shots in your arm Owe nothing Be happy You can't even buy s**t in the store because of your low social credit score.

Starting point is 02:46:48 Own nothing. Be happy. You will own nothing. And be happy. Be happy and eat the bugs hello it's me Volodymyr Zelensky I'm so tired of wearing these same t-shirts everywhere for years you'd think with all the billions I've skimmed off America I could dress better and I could if only David Knight would send me one of his beautiful gray MacGuffin hoodies

Starting point is 02:47:25 or a new black t-shirt with the MacGuffin logo in blue. But he told me to get lost. Maybe one of you American suckers can buy me some at thedavidknightshow.com. You should be able to buy me several hundred. Those amazing sand-coloured microphone hoodies are so beautiful. I'd wear something other than green military cosplay to my various galas and social events. If you want to save on shipping, just put it in the next package of bombs and missiles coming from the USA. Well, let's talk a little bit about nullification, when it's applied and when it isn't. We have a Florida attorney, the Florida Attorney General is telling state law enforcement, ignore the judge's immigration orders.

Starting point is 02:48:24 And I agree, I think they can nullify, but of course, on immigration, that is a delegated power to the federal government. It's probably not the best place to nullify. But he says, you know, we don't agree with him on immigration, so let's not enforce it. And what that really is,

Starting point is 02:48:44 the headline says nullification, put a question mark there. It's actually not so much nullification as it is noncommandeering, noncompliance, if you will. And that has also been recognized, that state officials are not required to comply with the, to help the federal government do what the federal government is doing. And they cannot be commanded, they cannot be commandeered, and they do not have to comply. So I think that's really what they're talking about.

Starting point is 02:49:15 In a sense, it is a form of nullification. But here's where they really do need to nullify. I talked about earlier this week the fact that the, so that was the attorney general, the surgeon general of Florida, Joseph Latopo has now on multiple occasions talked about how bad and how dangerous these vaccines are. And actually he was part of a study, we covered that study, that was talking about how dangerous the Pfizer vaccine was and how even comparing it to Moderna, Pfizer was more deadly. And so the surgeon general of Florida, Joseph Latapow, was a part of that study.

Starting point is 02:49:56 And the result of that, there was headlines and a lot of the alternative media was that the Pfizer shot, or call it the Pfizer shot, but actually folks it is the Trump genetic code injection. He said he's the father of the vaccine. He paid for it. He pushed it. He's proud of it. He continues to push it. He continues to be proud of it. That shot killed over 470,000 Americans, they said. But you know, this is something that I should have pointed out. That was pointed out by Brian Shalhavi at HelpImpact.com. He said, the problem is that they're still available to inject children throughout Florida. They're still available.

Starting point is 02:50:36 So if you want it for your child, you can get it. If you want it as an adult, you can get it. And stop and think about how horrific that is. They come in and say, oh, he killed about another half million people. About a half million people killed with this is the number that they came up with. And he says, well, the study itself didn't say that.

Starting point is 02:50:57 He said, this is something that's been put in by the alternative media. Well, it was put in by Steve Kirsch, who took the number for the all-cause mortality, compared it to the same parameters following the Moderna COVID shots, extrapolate their data, they multiply it by 50, assuming that it's the same in all the other states. That was Steve Kirsch who did that. He says, so we're not really sure of the number. I think it's far worse actually. but he said, still, it's an alarming study. But nobody asked, now what?

Starting point is 02:51:30 Now what? He says, shouldn't there have been, this is Brian at healthimpact.com, he says, shouldn't there have been an immediate ban on all COVID shots? Especially the Pfizer ones, at least in the state of Florida where the attorney general and the governor acknowledge and have acknowledged for quite some time. First it was DeSantis and Lattapoe who said, well, we won't recommend it for seniors, but you'll still let them get it. And when I've talked about this, I remember, and I think I've even played the scene once,

Starting point is 02:52:03 it was out of a movie called Montenegro. And I don't remember anything about that movie. I remember it was a housewife who went crazy or something. And at one point she says, beautiful basset hound. And she pours some milk. And she pours some poison in the milk. And she sets it in front of the basset hound. She says, I wouldn't drink that if I were you

Starting point is 02:52:26 she just kinda sits there watching the Basset Hound hoping that he will drink it and he walks away, she says, it's a smart choice that's what people like Rhonda Santis and Joseph Lattapoe and people like Laura Loomer when she's called out on it you know, hey you know, I didn't take the vaccine. I was smart enough. If you took it, it's on you.

Starting point is 02:52:47 Same attitude as this deranged, crazy, homicidal housewife. I don't care. Yeah, I'm not taking it. You know, Tucker said the same thing. I'm not taking it. Laura Loomer, I'm not taking it. But hey, if you take it because you trusted Trump or because you were intimidated by Biden's mandates or afraid because of the disinformation from the Trump administration the Biden administration if you took it Hey, that's on you. I don't really care

Starting point is 02:53:15 That is really reprehensible. So in Florida they said we don't recommend it for For elderly people now they're saying we don't recommend it for elderly people. Now they're saying, we don't recommend it for children, but children and elderly people can still get it. If you have a cradle that results in the death of one child, they will take that cradle off the market as they should. They'll recall it and they'll change it. Nobody's even talking about recalling and changing the Pfizer thing, let alone stopping it altogether. They're not even going to acknowledge that it's an issue. And even though the Surgeon General can be on this study that looks at how harmful it

Starting point is 02:53:55 is, he's not going to stop it? Seriously? That's what Brian Shohab is saying, and I should have focused on this yesterday. I wouldn't recommend it, but hey, you know, go ahead if you want to. Now it's not just that. You know, it's not just that people go in and they voluntarily want to do the childhood vaccine. He says, well, just before I get into that, he says, shouldn't criminal indictments be issued for everybody? I mean, it's not just an issue of, well, we're not going to recommend it.

Starting point is 02:54:25 No, you ban it, number one. Number two, you issue criminal indictments against people for this fraud and this murder and this harm that they've done. He said, shouldn't that be issued for everyone who participated in distributing these bioweapon shots, injecting them in millions of people, pushing them as Trump did? No, no, no. Trump is our savior. The obvious answer to all this is a resounding yes. He says it's not going to happen though

Starting point is 02:54:50 because Lattapoe is the big farmer's lap dog. And so is everybody around him, including Governor DeSantis and the father of the COVID shot, Trump, and his sidekick at HHS, R.F.K. Jr. He says, as I write this today, anyone living in Florida can still schedule a COVID shot for themselves or for their children as these dangerous shots are still being injected into the Florida population every day, including babies as young as six months old. How do we know that?

Starting point is 02:55:21 Because that's part of the 76 vaccine schedule things. They at six months, they come after the babies with a COVID shot. But it's even worse than that. It's even worse than that because it's not like people are going in and saying, you know, I want to get a COVID shot for my baby. And it's like, we look at it and we say, well, not that many people are still doing that, but it's going to be your physician is going to push it on you and here's why the physician will be pushing it on you and this is a piece from children's health defense. This doctor says I won't do that because I will do no harm. That used to be the basics of ethics in the medical community, but no longer. The pediatrician is suing the CDC,

Starting point is 02:56:11 explaining that the decision not to give COVID vaccines to kids caused her to lose her practice because of the pressure from the insurance companies, you see. It's just like CMS, how they were financially incentivizing under Trump, give everybody these, give them the ventilator, give them remdesivir, lock them down all the way, declare them as sick with COVID, even if they're not. And so in the same way,

Starting point is 02:56:36 they can use this as a weapon against people and say, well, if you don't, and we've talked about this before, that a pediatrician that doesn't get like 80% compliance of all their patients has their insurance reduced or cut off. In this particular case, it's directly with the government. It's Medicaid. It's CMS. This is this organization that is going to have Dr. Oz there.

Starting point is 02:56:59 And of course, Dr. Oz in the past had no problem pushing the genetic code injection. Now Dr. Oz is pushing artificial intelligence in healthcare, but he's not going to have any problem pushing the genetic code injection either because he's done it over and over again. Dr. Samara Cardenas doesn't regret choosing not to give COVID-19 vaccines to her pediatric Medicaid patients, even though the decision meant losing her Medicaid contract and then with it 1900 patients and losing her practice. But she doesn't regret it. In an interview, she's in California, she said safety concerns drove her decision to withhold the COVID vaccine from her

Starting point is 02:57:40 young patients. There's already a lot of information that the COVID shot had more problems than not. It made me feel very uncomfortable to administer this. And then she said in early 2021, the VAERS event, and by 2022, VAERS data showed that the COVID vaccines were associated with more injuries and deaths than all conventional vaccines combined in the previous three decades.

Starting point is 02:58:02 You know, we're already seeing that by early 2021. She said she was also alarmed to discover that some vaccine injury reports later disappeared from VAERS for that explanation. And so most states, including California, require pediatricians who treat Medicare patients to enroll in the CDC's Vaccines for Children program. The program requires doctors to administer all the vaccines on childhood immunization schedule

Starting point is 02:58:27 to their Medicaid patients regardless of the child's health status or their parents wishes. So this isn't simply, well I'm not going to recommend this to you. The federal government is going to be financially blackmailing pediatricians to push this on there and they're going to push it hard because if they don't push it hard, they will lose their practice. She said, I did break my contract, I guess, because I will do no harm. She said, I felt it was ludicrous and totally against any kind of science. It was better to do something for the whole country to get rid of the mandates to have

Starting point is 02:59:02 children immunized. So last week she sued the CDC over this vaccines for children program requirement to give COVID-19 shots to young children. Instead of seeking compensatory damages or lawsuit questions of safety and the necessity of administering these Trump shots to people. She said, no child in my practice ever died from COVID. Healthy children got COVID. It was treated like a cold, bad flu.

Starting point is 02:59:27 Now listen to what happens when she tries to not do it. She said she ordered other vaccines for her practice. That was the only one that she took out was a COVID shot. She said, we got an email saying, your order is incomplete. You need to order COVID. Subsequent conversations, they told her it was mandatory. And if she didn't order the COVID vaccines, the program wouldn't send her any of the other vaccines and she would be out of the entire program. And the worst aspect of this is that

Starting point is 02:59:56 they put this in for children so they could have that legal immunity. Thank you for listening. Have a good day. They created common past to track and control us. Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing and the communist future. They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary. But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God. That is what we have in common. That is what they want to take away. Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation. They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us. It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide. Please share the information and
