Starting point is 00:00:55 You're listening to The David Knight Show. As the clock strikes 13, it's Wednesday, September 11th, 2024. Year of our Lord, 2024. We're going to begin by talking about what everybody forgot to talk about. 9-11, the germ game. What is going on? They practiced it for 20 years. They ran it out four years ago. Of course, nobody's going to talk about it.
Starting point is 00:01:38 ABC was part of it. Trump was part of it. La La was part of it. We're going to take a look at the debate as well. It is truly amazing that nothing of any substance is ever talked about in these shows, these pageants.
Starting point is 00:01:56 And of course the Russians are laughing at us rightfully so. We'll be right back. Outside the Pentagon, CNN's military affairs correspondent, Jamie McIntyre. Jamie, you got very close to where that plane went down. That's right, Judy. A while ago, I walked right up to next to the building. Firefighters were still trying to put out the blaze. The fire, by the way, is still burning in some parts of the Pentagon.
Starting point is 00:02:54 And I took a look at the huge gaping hole that's in the sideway. But from my close-up inspection, there's no evidence of a plane having crashed anywhere near the Pentagon. The only site is the actual site of the building that's crashed in. And as I said, the only pieces left that you can see are small enough that you could pick up in your hand. There are no large tail sections, wing sections, a fuselage, nothing like that anywhere around. Yeah, no large pieces, nothing like a tail section or or fuselage or an engine or anything and they put some things out there later they put some pieces out there later but he says yeah there's fire still burning it had been quite some time and they still hadn't bothered to scatter out there
Starting point is 00:03:39 any airplane parts yet again we're all the witnesses were all the cameras pentagon was covered with cameras one of the few places on earth covered with cameras at that time now everything is well they went around they confiscated some nearby cameras still no eyewitnesses and again the person that i met uh down in texas a tourist area he said yeah talking in the nobody was there um off season and uh karen is looking around the store and i'm just kind of standing there and uh she starts telling me her life story how she and her husband had opened this up and they're making the things that the knickknacks and stuff that they sell and how fortunately for her her husband retired first and she left because she said i was working in the very office where the plane went in and she said we were doing so much research into so
Starting point is 00:04:35 much money that was lost and we had so many people taking early retirement out of the military out of congress in lieu of being prosecuted she said there was trillions of dollars missing. Or not trillions. It was billions of. I think, well, I get confused anymore. I can't remember. We talk so much about trillions and billions. I know it wasn't millions.
Starting point is 00:04:57 How much was it that was missing? I think it was six trillion. It was astronomical. Anyway, she never would put the pieces together i asked her you know what do you listen to for news well listen to uh abc and things and like the people that run the debate last night look if the public will believe 9-11 they will believe anything and i gotta say that if politicians like Donald Trump, like Rudy Giuliani and others, if they will embrace the lies of 9-11, when they obviously know better.
Starting point is 00:05:35 That was one of the things that, oh, look, when Trump was running in 2016, he said, well, I can't believe that building just went down. Like it was a controlled demolition type thing. He didn't use those words. He said, I can't believe it just fell down. That's one of the strongest buildings anywhere. That really doesn't make any sense. He said, well, it made sense to parrot the party line
Starting point is 00:05:59 if he wants to become president, which is what he did. So there was a lot of people were concerned about it because it just doesn't make any sense and so they did a an inquiry a commission and uh george w bush put this guy in charge today i'm pleased to announce my choice for Commission Chairman, Dr. Henry Kissinger. Yes, sir. Do you have any concerns about once the Commission begins its work, if fingers point to valuable allies, say Saudi Arabia, for example, the implications, policy implications this could have for the United States, particularly at this delicate time. I have been given every assurance by the president
Starting point is 00:06:46 that we should go with the facts leaders. Yeah, that's right. Henry Kissinger, Mr. Bilderberg, Alex Jones hated Henry
Starting point is 00:07:03 Kissinger and Bilderberg, but he loved henry kissinger's little guy steve pachinik who uh covered up actually um he didn't cover up he was he was part of operation gladio where they ordered the assassination of the kidnapped italian prime minister aldo moro according to the italian government but you know this is a great source on the inside a guy who worked for kissinger yeah it's kind of interesting isn't it but um he did their little cover-up and they got that there by the way it was a little over two trillion travis says i was thinking six trillion because then yeah that's what uh that's what trump did to the deficit you know trump and biden three to three trillion a year plus uh each year so uh what we've been
Starting point is 00:07:52 going through the last four years is just the other shoe to drop the germ game you can call it a plandemic or whatever what they did was they did a germ game it was a game it was a game they had run this thing over and over and over and over again as a simulation and then they did the real life game well when uh russia looked at the debate according to them uh they said that it is essentially a pageant yeah it's a it's a pageant it's a pageant that's what it is yeah a show a show that's what they said they didn't a pageant. It's a pageant. That's what it is. Yeah, a show. A show. That's what they said. They didn't say pageant, but it's a show. But it really was more like a pageant.
Starting point is 00:08:28 It was like a beauty pageant, you know. And you're Burt Parks. Or you're Donald Trump, the guy who ran the beauty pageants. Except it was really pretty bad. Not a good event for Trump at all. On Rockfan, Jason Barger checked in and said, morning, uh, uh, David and family. I watched the debate last night. I feel like I woke up a little dumber this morning.
Starting point is 00:08:52 Jason Barker, nice of the storm. Foxhole report. Yeah, it definitely was an idiocracy. And, um, Russian foreign ministry spokesperson. You know, they'll tell you the truth about America. They'll lie about Russia, but they'll tell you the truth about America. They'll lie about Russia, but they'll tell you the truth about America. He said, to be honest, I don't know why you think that's big news. Is it big news that we could see yet another show performed by people who clearly take no responsibility whatsoever for their words or for their actions, we could add.
Starting point is 00:09:26 But the spokesperson just said, Maria Zakharova said just for their words, you should answer for your sins, she said. At least for the second half of the 20th century, at least for a couple of decades. How about for just the last four years? You think Trump, you know, from 2020 on, Trump and La La, you think they could answer for their sins? No. Not at all. Not even going to talk about it.
Starting point is 00:09:52 At least sort things out with yourselves in Afghanistan. Sort things out with yourselves in Iraq. At least ask each other. Have you managed to do anything, anywhere, without staining yourselves with blood? Yeah. to do anything anywhere without staining yourselves with blood yeah um so this is why trump really was not able to debate because he doesn't want to answer for his sins and so how do you how do you criticize um lala for locking people down uh la la and biden mandating stuff and then saying it's your body your choice when it comes to killing babies how do you do that well you can't do that if you were also part of the lockdown process if you put people like fauci in charge if you didn't do
Starting point is 00:10:40 anything to help people so here's my take on the um on this uh uh this whole thing you could watching it and then looking at the reaction i think was very telling you go to drudge report drudge report is you know just happy dancing all over the place it's the end and it shows trump with a ai picture of him surrounded by cats and other pets and stuff, because that was, I think, um, one of the lowest points of the, uh, of the debate, in my opinion, you know, there's a drudge report, uh, the end, you know, for Trump, there was so much that could have been talked about with what was happening in Ohio.
Starting point is 00:11:23 But he chose to focus on the highly disputed, difficult to prove issues about Haitians and cats and pets and things like that. Yeah, we saw pictures of them killing geese. There's a picture of one of them walking with a dead goose. And it is likely that this happened. There were a lot of people who said it. But of course, he gets facted by the so-called moderator. The first thing Trump should have done if he was in charge,
Starting point is 00:11:53 he says, so wait a minute, are you the moderator or am I debating you? Because if the mayor says it, this is the mayor that's not doing anything to help anybody there in Smithfield. Oh, the mayor says it. Well, I've got a lot of other people here who you just dismiss. You don't care what anybody says except for the mayor. And guess what? The mayor doesn't care what anybody says. And we played clips of all the people talking about the massive crime
Starting point is 00:12:16 and intimidation and other things that were happening there. And the city council just ignores it. The police just ignore it, regardless of what is happening with that. But we'll talk about this coming up. When you look at Haiti and you look at what happened there, this is a massive failure by the Biden administration that is wholly within his administration, beginning in 2021. You know, there was the country descended into chaos they sent in kenyan police to try to keep order this is all part of the u.s and the state department trying to keep order there and it has completely failed for three years and that's why why do you have all
Starting point is 00:13:01 these haitian refugees in the first place? Because of a failed Biden policy. Trump doesn't talk about that. Why? He doesn't know anything. He didn't prepare anything. He doesn't know anything about principles. He doesn't have any policies, really. He doesn't plan on doing any of this stuff.
Starting point is 00:13:18 It was all about him, and it was so easy for Lala and the moderators to make it about him and he took the bait he absolutely took the bait it was so bad as a matter of fact that the harris camp is now saying we want another one of those one another one we'll see what happens taylor swift immediately jumped in and uh endorsed trump and on the other side this this is what I like to look at. I like to look to see how the two different sides are portraying the opinion polls and all the rest of this stuff.
Starting point is 00:13:50 Again, as if it matters, folks, you don't have a say in the government of our country. It was the most obvious thing in 2020, wasn't it? We were being run by public health departments from Fauci down to the local county being run by public health departments from fauci down to the local county
Starting point is 00:14:07 it was public health departments unelected bureaucrats who were telling us you got to wear a mask you gotta you gotta do this you gotta do that you know uh simon says do this and all these ridiculous things at the time can only walk in one direction in the store stand on these little things that we put on the floor it was like a children's game and you know these useless masks these useless superstitions don't step on a crack you'll break fauci's back you know that type of um all of this stuff we were governed by all that stuff and i said in 2020 i'm done with voting look at who did who voted for these people that are ruling us this is medical martial law and guess what these people are the ones who are picking who's running and they're going to pick who the president is it's not going to be your
Starting point is 00:14:59 votes if they think that trump is going to be more useful as an agent of chaos, they'll put him in. If they think that Lala Harris will be more useful as an agent of chaos, they will put her in. And so when you look at Breitbart as-checking lala harris and saying you know this and that about what trump was saying um i said taylor swift endorsed trump no no sorry yeah i misspoke of course not she she endorsed lala of course i'm sorry thank you for correcting that uh uh yeah it's a live uh it's a live thing it's a good thing i'm not debating um everybody be all over me it's like this guy is worse than biden um but um the uh uh when you look at breitbart they're trying to make every excuse in the world they can. They didn't have any clips showing Trump owning her.
Starting point is 00:16:12 Same thing on Twitter. Where are the clips of Trump owning her? Gone. So, yeah, my take on all of it was you look at it, and she was just unbelievably smarmy, smirking as she looked at him constantly. When he would talk, she would look over at him and smirk and roll her eyes or whatever. When she was talking, he would look straight ahead at the camera to be the mugshot thing, but he didn't look like he was in charge he just looked like he was angry how does that help him quite frankly so when the two of them and they kept them on the split screen just like they did with biden and trump and biden was like la la you know
Starting point is 00:16:59 looking around all over the place but she was focused on him. She was very controlled in what she did and what it was in the split screen. It was a mug shot versus a smug shot. And people are going to look at that and they're going to say, well, you know, he looks really angry and scary. And with all the January, the six things I've heard from the media, maybe I don't want to that to me. I haven't seen people talk about that juxtaposition but i think him making himself trying to look like a badass you know he looks just angry and
Starting point is 00:17:34 deranged in a sense and she looks condescending smirky and smug and it was annoying but um that's the that's the issue and so there was nothing on zero hedge nothing on most of most of these sites that do update in the morning nothing at all about it so it's like oh this is this is really bad well the other sites were just happy dancing the the left democrat sites were happy dancing so that's my take on it yeah before they do any polls or any of the rest of the stuff now it remains to be seen how the public will react to this did people watch it i don't know what the ratings are i haven't seen that yet uh it is the only debate but it also is just to show it is irrelevant and uh so um travis says if kamala yeah kami kamila if kamila wins we can rename america to la la land that's right that's
Starting point is 00:18:39 california all of america will become la la land why well uh again uh he was not prepared to handle the abortion issue he was not prepared to handle the immigration issue that's his issue that's his issue and he hung his position on that issue on whether or not pets are being eaten by Haitians in Smithfield. That's just plain stupid. And what he said about abortion was stupid as well. And it was fact-checked. And that was one of the things, the first things that I noticed was I thought it was outrageous that both of these moderators were debating him. Oh, no, you said this, and that's absolutely not true there's not any
Starting point is 00:19:25 kids that are being killed at full term and it's like well they eventually did come back and allude in a very indirect way to comfort care uh referred to well the governor of virginia so they just decide if they're gonna let the babies die or whatever no that's not it at all he's such a poor communicator you know that he is the antithesis of reagan reagan was the great communicator uh trump doesn't communicate at all and he communicates things that he doesn't i think intend to communicate and certainly that is grabbed and and uh elevated by the other side but uh he doesn't talk about comfort care. Look, comfort care, and this is a key thing that was in the Kermit Gosnell trial.
Starting point is 00:20:10 In that trial, you had to be on the jury. You had to be pro-abortion in order to even sit on the jury. You had to agree with Roe v. Wade or they excluded you. And so when Kermit Gosnell was on trial, they had an abortion. I don't know if she did abortions or she's an abortion expert or whatever. There's an excellent film, a Gosnell film about that. It's a courtroom trial. They don't get gory or anything, but that is the focal point, really, of the trial. And what got him convicted was when this person comes in and explains what standard practice is and what the law is.
Starting point is 00:20:55 You cannot kill a child after an abortion with direct action. You can, however, set them over on the side, which is what the governor of Virginia, Ralph Northern, was talking about. You can set the child over on the side and just let them die because they've already been injured, probably pretty seriously with the abortion attempt. So you can just set them over there and let them die. Don't give them any medical care.
Starting point is 00:21:22 This is what the Romans used to do with babies that they didn't want. They'd take them to a particular spot, just leave them out in the open, let them die. Don't give them any medical care. This is what the Romans used to do with babies that they didn't want. They'd take them to a particular spot, just leave them out in the open, let them die from exposure. Healthy babies that were born that they didn't want. And the Christians would go and watch that happening and then take the babies and adopt them. So he didn't explain that. And it's a key thing.
Starting point is 00:21:44 And the moderators, as well as La La, everybody on the, you know, on Trump's side were saying it was three against one. And they're absolutely right. It was three against one. That's one of the things that could be used. I don't know how, you know, you've got the two camps that are so invested already in their two candidates that no debate is going to change that but you've got the independents and i don't know how they'll perceive it it was uh highly biased but again trump comes across as uh deranged narcissistic angry uh so who knows how that's going to be perceived by the independents uh I can't really identify that with that.
Starting point is 00:22:25 I'm an independent, but I'm not a voter anymore. Don't care. I'm not playing this game anymore. I want people to look at their local situation. And, you know, when we talk about what the mayor was doing, he should have talked about what the mayor was not doing. That's what he should have focused on. And that's why it's important that you focus
Starting point is 00:22:46 on your local elections. You've got to have the right people in city council. They'll make things much worse or they can make things much better. And if they're going to be on the side of Washington, which is there to attack you and to destroy our country, like the city council and the mayor and the police department there in Smithfield, Ohio. If they're on the side of Washington and the globalists, well, that's going to be really bad. You better pay attention. Better get somebody who's going to do the right thing. But getting back to the abortion thing, he didn't talk about that.
Starting point is 00:23:21 Later on, he goes, oh, you know, the governor of Virginia just said you you can send them off to the side decide what you're going to do with them but even more so than that as lala came back and said well i i don't want to you know full term no we just want to uh go back to roe v wade well under roe v wade in 1996 they allowed partial birth abortion. That's full term. And that's just a fiction, saying that baby hasn't been born. That was literal murder. That was semantics. That was prevarication to say that wasn't a murder of a full-term baby.
Starting point is 00:24:03 And I know because I was running for congress in 1996 and that's what changed my mind on abortion and uh showed what their real agenda was what this truly was about partial birth abortion was allowed under roe v wade they specifically outlawed it because it was such a heinous practice but um he let him get away with that and then he also said well i had states i think states many states are doing wonderful things some of them harsh some of them very easy and uh yeah we want uh the people to to control it that's what democracy is all about it's now that is wrong it's all about the 10th amendment and supreme court finally got the 10th Amendment right.
Starting point is 00:24:45 And I've been saying that all my life. After I changed, after I started paying attention to Roe v. Wade. For decades, I was saying, this is a violation of the 10th Amendment. Which is what Dobbs' decision said. It's a violation of the 10th Amendment. The Supreme Court doesn't get to decide that. And guess what? Neither does the President.
Starting point is 00:25:05 Neither does the Congress. That should have been his answer. I stand with the Constitution, he should have said. So we can play Monday morning quarterback. But Roe v. Wade did not ban full-term abortions. What Roe v. Wade did was Roe v. Wade banned prohibitions of early term abortions. See what a difference that is? Does he not?
Starting point is 00:25:31 No, of course he doesn't because he doesn't care at all. There aren't any issues that matter to him except Donald Trump. It's all about him personally. It's not about any of these issues with other people. And that's the fatal thing, the fatal flaw in his campaign. Remember Hillary Clinton? His campaign was, I'm with her. It was all about her.
Starting point is 00:25:57 I'm Hillary Clinton. I'm great. It's my turn. That's what Trump is doing this time around. I'm Donald Trump. I was wronged i'm great it's my turn i want revenge don't you want revenge that type of thing that's that's a really bad place to be so um when it comes to the uh pets just in case you think i'm exaggerating
Starting point is 00:26:20 this in springfield they're eating the dogs the people Springfield, they're eating the dogs, the people that came in. They're eating the cats. They're eating the pets of the people that live there. And this is what's happening in our country. And it's a shame. Yeah. Very convincing, isn't it? Again, nothing at all about the Biden state department uh the mess that they've created
Starting point is 00:26:46 for the last three years in haiti nothing at all about the open borders nothing at all about local government failing to protect people we just walked right into that and they camped out on it and then there was this where they asked him about health care. I had a choice to make. Do I save it and make it as good as it can be, or do I let it rot? And I saved it. I did the right thing.
Starting point is 00:27:14 But it's still never going to be great, and it's too expensive for people. And what we will do is we're looking at different plans. If we can come up with a plan that's going to cost our people, our population, less money and be better health care than Obamacare, then I would absolutely do it. But until then, I'd run it as good as it can be run. So just a yes or no, you still do not have a plan. I have concepts of a plan. I'm not president right now. Oh, I got concepts. I got concepts. concepts do you have a plan I have a concept
Starting point is 00:27:48 of a plan that's even worse I've got a plan well you're president did you have a policy to act on the plan no I didn't but now as a candidate I don't even have a plan I got a concept of a plan well here's my concept of the way the government works. Trump, health care ain't your business. It's not the business of government. He's right where Hillary Clinton was 30 years ago, 31 years ago. Health care is something that needs to be fixed by government. When Trump ran in 2016, as I said, they memory-holed his plan, his concept of a plan, because it wasn't his.
Starting point is 00:28:29 It was an excellent program. I remember going over it point by point for the radio audience, and I said, this is great. It creates a marketplace. It creates competition. It gives people purchasing power. It gives them information about doctors and hospitals to make an intelligent decision about healthcare providers and on and on and on. Never referenced it. He never referenced it. It was up on his website. He never referenced it. They just got rid of it. Same kind of stuff that Lala's doing. None of these issues that they talk about, they have positions, positions, and they're constantly switching positions
Starting point is 00:29:07 because they don't have principles. And because they don't have principles, they don't have policies. And there really isn't anything to debate. You're going to talk about, well, who got the best zinger in? Who had the best sound bites? Who looked better on TV?
Starting point is 00:29:24 All of that kind of stuff. By the way, when you talk about late-term abortions, Tim Walz signed a full-term abortion bill. They want to say that's not happening? It is happening. Walz is, he just didn't know anything. He doesn't pay attention to any of it. And then when they challenged him on, you know,
Starting point is 00:29:47 things were said by Lala, she was not corrected by the moderators when she talked about Charlottesville and the fine people. That's a lie. It's been debunked. They're talking about the bloodbath, trying to imply that Trump was saying there's going to be a bloody revolution. No, he was talking about financial issues. It's going to be a financial bloodbath. But they did get him on the lost by a whisker thing.
Starting point is 00:30:12 David Muir said to him, well you admitted that you lost. You said that you lost by a whisker. I didn't say that. And he said, yeah you did. And then he says, well it was sarcasm. And that's when he engaged him. And again, I thought it was really not his responsibility as a moderator to try to fact check him. That's one of the reasons why Trump said, well, I had that debate with, he meant to say, Megyn Kelly, because it was Megyn Kelly who was debating him. And she was rightfully criticized for that. But, you know, you ask the questions and then you let people fact check them later on.
Starting point is 00:30:53 You don't do it as a moderator. But, yeah, it was a debate with him and Megyn Kelly. And it was a debate with him and David Muir and this other person, Lindsay Davis, I think. I don't watch ABC News at all, at all. I'd never seen these. Well, I'd seen David Muir before, but I'd never listened to him. And I'd never seen her, the other co-moderator in this stuff. But when Trump recalled it, when he was talking to Lex Friedman, he said, when I debated Rosie O'Donnell what was wasn't rosie it was megan kelly but uh it is a pageant it is concept it is total nonsense
Starting point is 00:31:33 and um so they didn't talk about uh the 10th amendment uh they didn't get to talk about the second amendment either uh it was kind of interesting. You could make a long list of all the things that they didn't talk about that are of substance. But the key things that they didn't talk about were the germ games that were played on us by Trump in 2020 and by the Biden administration for years. So when we talk about Second Amendment, it was kind of the Second Amendment. It was tangentially referred to harris said she's not going to take away anybody's guns but she wouldn't explain why she had changed her position says bearing arms gun control was on a few issues that abc news
Starting point is 00:32:16 moderator david muir and lindsey davis didn't directly bring up during tuesday's debate but harris's 2019 plan to ban so-called assault weapons, to mandate gun owners, turn them over to the feds, and a mandatory buyback was still referenced on a couple of occasions. And again, just like what the Russian spokesperson said, you don't really have any right to talk about this stuff, and you can't really talk about it because you haven't confronted your sins. Now they were referring to your wars, your bloodshed abroad. But this particular case, just like Trump can't come after them for their hypocrisy on abortion, things like that, because, you know, he, he, he can't call them hypocrites for talking about your body,
Starting point is 00:33:04 your choice, when they did mandate vaccines for so many people. And this way, he can't really come after her for the gun issue either. Because when she was running in 2019, she said, I'm going to, and I said it was going to be done, she was the Democrat who jumped on it first. I said, after Trump used an executive order to do the bump stock ban, I said, the Democrats are going to do it.
Starting point is 00:33:33 And it wasn't even a week after he did it. She came out and said, and when I'm president, I'm going to give Congress a hundred days to pass my list of gun control items. And if they don't do it it i will do them all by executive order i said see and then later biden said the same thing uh so davis asked harris to explain why her positions on so many issues have changed over the past five years including uh shifting away from mandatory buyback along with some other flip-flops on fracking and on universal health care though harris promised to address every one of the issues he spoke of she neglected to mention the gun issue and why she no longer supposedly supports a confiscate a compensated confiscation
Starting point is 00:34:19 scheme so then trump brought it up on two separate occasions which led her to insist we're not taking away anybody's guns and yet uh that's exactly what she wants to do she wants to do it by executive order he can't come after her on a constitutional basis because that's what he wanted to do he set that precedent such a move would be a constitutional abomination says bearing arms but that wasn't a deal breaker for harris five years ago and guess what it wasn't a deal breaker for donald trump either this is why i say both of these people are picked by the establishment and they're going to pick the person in this election not you you won even, your vote won't even matter if you're not in a tight state. I mean, if you're in a solidly Republican or solidly Democrat state, your vote won't matter whatsoever.
Starting point is 00:35:14 And there's only about seven states that are borderline. And I have no confidence that the votes are going to be counted honestly in those states. And why would the Trump people, they've spent the last four years saying the elections are rigged. Why would they think that's going to happen? Now, they're going to be picked by the people who picked these two as contestants. So, Harris says she won't take away America's guns because she owns one. I own a gun for probably the reason a lot of other people do. Is she afraid the government's going to take over our country?
Starting point is 00:35:51 That's the purpose of the Second Amendment. The rest of the stuff, does she do any hunting? Does she hunt cats and dogs or wild geese? I don't know why she needs a gun. She's got so many people with guns that protect her all the time. And so does Trump. Trump can't say that he even owns a gun. It sounds a gun, but he doesn't own a gun. Uh, I own it for personal safety. She said, and, um, an aid at the time said she had bought a handgun years before her statement, but it's all locked up. She would never use it.
Starting point is 00:36:21 She doesn't need to use it. And so, um, uh so they move on to war. And Harris says in the debate that there are no U.S. troops deployed in combat zone, which is a lie. Anti-war calls her out on that. As of today, there's not one member of the U.S. military who is in active duty in a combat zone in any war zone around the world for the first time this century, she said. Well, any war says U.S. troops are deployed in Iraq and in Syria under the anti-ISIS coalition and they actively participate in combat operations.
Starting point is 00:37:00 Less than two weeks ago, seven U.Ss troops were wounded in a raid against a suspected isis hideout in iraq so we're still in iraq trump said we were lied into iraq so why did he stay there his entire four years and why three four years later are we still there Because it was all based on a lie. You'll always talk about that with Dick Cheney. Dick Cheney was a warmonger. How he lied us into that war. And yet, Trump won't get us out of it.
Starting point is 00:37:37 Just like he didn't get us out of Afghanistan. And what about Syria? When did we put troops into Syria? Under Trump. We should go there and take the oil, and that's what they're doing. They're occupying the Syrian war fields. So when you see that American troops are getting shot at or they take some incoming rocket fire or something like that in Syria,
Starting point is 00:37:59 you say, why are we in Syria? Trump put us there. And, of course, Biden and La La want to keep us there as well. It's a uniparty. They're both doing the same thing. That's why they have been allowed to be present, because they don't challenge the real government there in Washington. U.S. troops have also been injured in recent weeks by drone and rocket attacks on U.S. bases in Iraq and Syria. Back in January, three U.S. troops have also been injured in recent weeks by drone and rocket attacks on U.S. bases in Iraq and Syria.
Starting point is 00:38:26 Back in January, three U.S. Army Reserve soldiers from Georgia were killed by a drone attack on Tower 22, a secretive U.S. base in Jordan on the Syrian border. Why do we have secret bases in Jordan? And why do we have troops in Syria? And were they in Jordan or were they in Syria when they were killed? And why are we, and how did we get there in Syria? Harris made the false claim while discussing the U S withdrawal from Afghanistan.
Starting point is 00:39:01 She criticized Trump for negotiating the deal that led to the withdrawal. She said he bypassed the Afghan government. He negotiated directly with a terrorist organization called the CIA. No, Taliban. Sorry, Taliban, not the CIA. He doesn't negotiate with CIA. He does what they tell him to do. And so does she. Trump defended the deal, calling it a very good agreement. He criticized the way the Biden administration carried out withdrawal. Well, they did a withdrawal because they had to, not because they chose to. And you didn't do a withdrawal for four years. As I said, he's got blood on his hands for the people.
Starting point is 00:39:38 There were more people that died every year than died in that single event of the withdrawal from Biden. Uh, more people have died every year from, from with Trump while they were occupying Afghanistan. There was never any plan to leave Afghanistan. They loved, uh, the, uh, poppy fields that could create opioids and export them worldwide. CIA loved that. Uh, there's lithium. There's a geopolitical position that is there.
Starting point is 00:40:06 For all those reasons, they never planned on leaving Afghanistan. And although we were told that we went to war with Afghanistan because men in caves had flown planes into buildings, two planes into two buildings, three buildings fell into their footprint. So that war was based on a lie as well. Wait a minute. Are they all based on lies? Yeah. These people did the worst withdrawal, and in my opinion,
Starting point is 00:40:37 the most embarrassing moment in the history of our country. Well, he had four years to do it. He forgot to do it, I i guess it just wasn't on his list of priorities or something uh the only thing i can think of why he was so poorly prepared is because um laura loomer was seen exiting the president trump's plane before the debate perhaps she's the one who prepared him for the debate if he was being prepared for the debate by laura loomer and matt gates that explains everything folks everything just chain yourself
Starting point is 00:41:19 to the podium that's probably what she told him uh debate preparation lol that should be the initials of laura loomer uh what a joke what a joke so trump pushes the baseless claim about immigrants eating the pets according to nbc and again they're going to litigate this back and forth why not talk about what is actually happening in Haiti? What is talking about being talked about with the border? And I focus on this and they're focusing on it because immigration was his issue to win. He won on it in 2016 and he could win on it now.
Starting point is 00:42:00 Instead, he focuses on the least provable, most, you know, uh, know, they're laughing at it. I think that this is likely happening. I think people in Haiti are starving. And we know, there's a lot of reports, I should say. You never know anything for sure, right? There's a lot of reports that that type of thing was happening in Venezuela and other places where the economy was ravaged by Marxist policies like the kind that Lala Harris wants to put in.
Starting point is 00:42:31 And so with what is happening in Haiti, the political unrest, the civil war, the very fact that these people are refugees, it's likely that they were trapping down anything that moved to eat it. That's what happens when people get in desperate times and are desperately poor. And there's unrest and economic oppression. They grab animals and they eat them. It's one of the things we always thought was interesting about China. When we go to the restaurants, they had such a wide variety of strange things
Starting point is 00:43:05 that they would eat. And so, well, it really kind of comes from the hard times that they've had under communists. And just anything that moves, we'll eat it. So, again, David Muir comes back and says, well, city manager says that's not happening. Trump says, well, there's people on TV and there's people on social media that are showing this stuff. And, you know, who are you going to believe? It's what he should have said. But he didn't.
Starting point is 00:43:35 Vance hedged in a statement earlier on Tuesday, even saying, well, it's possible, of course, that all these rumors will turn out to be false. It was shaky ground for them in the first place why make it about that because he wasn't prepared because he's just entitled the springfield mayor uh repeat on tuesday city had no documented cases of immigrants eating pets rumors like these are taken from real issues such as housing concerns there's real issues about crime and intimidation and there's people that i played the clips for you talking about that and telling the city council that and the city council didn't want to hear it didn't care so immigration was his issue to win but he made about something that was a bit shaky uh so as that was happening
Starting point is 00:44:28 they actually got him into a narcissistic rage talking about the election talking about him as well uh it was not a good look and it was a really bad debate for him and again i think that's not just my opinion but that's the opinion of the people who are trying to defend him now and attack her uh in the ways that an informed candidate would have attacked her to start with so what is really going on in the west right it's a symptom of something that is much larger and the daily skeptic referred to roger scrutin's term that he created he called it uh oikophobia i think this is not a fear of pigs um and i don't know if i'm even pronouncing it right but i think it is called oikophobia. It is a hatred of your home, hatred of your homeland, right? Self-loathing as a nation, as a culture, a tribe.
Starting point is 00:45:38 And that's really what is going on in the West. And it's a very intentional program that uh intentional uh program that has been created that ran through universities and roger scrutin uh wrote about it roger scrutin died what a couple years ago travis yeah travis likes roger scrutin read him quite a bit uh he had uh an excellent series that actually got picked up on the BBC talking about beauty and how Western civilization doesn't even care about beauty anymore. We don't make beautiful, ornate buildings, whether they're church buildings or secular buildings or anything. Instead, we have this brutalist architecture, and it looks totalitarian. And that really is
Starting point is 00:46:22 the kind of architecture that for most of the 20th century we had. Just plain, stark buildings made out of the raw material. The university I went to, University of South Florida, the engineering college that was there, looked like something straight out of Kafka or Orwell or Soviet Union or something like that. Just bare concrete flat walls like a fortress or something um i guess it's cheap because communists immigrated here and got heavily entrenched in the architecture yeah yeah that's right all other materials were seen as bourgeois glass steel and concrete were the mediums of the proletariat that's good yeah you're absolutely right and, you know, we have to shun beauty. Just like we have to shun whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is pure.
Starting point is 00:47:11 That needs to be shunned as well. Like I said, I haven't watched, I just don't have time to watch movies. And I don't go to movie theaters. And so I haven't seen Kevin Costner's Horizon. But I saw a film review that made me want to see it because the film reviewer was just mocking it. He said, he's corny. He's sentimental about America and about human nature and the West and all this other kind of stuff. And it's like, wow, wow, you are so incredibly cynical. It's like, please, please consider me to be corny
Starting point is 00:47:47 because I want to uphold those values. And so did Roger Scruton. That's what we want to conserve, right? People talk about being a conservative. What is it that you want to conserve? Do you want to conserve our morality? Do you want to conserve our dependence on God rather than being lovers of self? do you want to celebrate what is
Starting point is 00:48:08 noble and true and right and pure as we are told as christians to do so paul told the philippians to do uh do you want to do that or do you want to celebrate what is perverse and false and debauched and that's what hollywood does he says um in this article from daily skeptic said honestly often harsh self-criticism is embedded in the western tradition indeed it's the core means by which our civilization has flourished over the centuries from the medieval era through the enlightenment and into modernity and of course we should always take a critical look at ourselves but and we should take a critical look at our historical figures right you don't give thomas jefferson a pass on slavery but you look at it in the context of his time what he was trying to do um and and you understand he's a fallen person he has his own hypocrisies and so forth
Starting point is 00:49:06 but that they moved the uh they moved the bar for society and for nations and i think they left some people behind but they moved the bar significantly so you celebrate what they did like frederick douglas said i love what he said i love what jefferson did paraphrase him i love what jefferson did but let's extend that to everybody that was the only thing that they didn't do right they didn't extend it to everybody but they extended it to most people at the time and you know they acknowledged that slavery was a wolf he said we've got it by the ears now what do we do with it what do you do with this issue? Well, he wasn't a Christian, and you had William Wilberforce as a Christian in the UK.
Starting point is 00:49:52 He took it on, and he stopped it. But Jefferson was a little bit before William Wilberforce even. Over the preceding decades, this tradition of thoughtful, constructive critique has been transmogrified into a poisonous campaign against the heart of Western civilization. In his 2004 book, England and the Need for Nations, Roger Scruton termed the rising liberal ideology of self-contempt, he called it oikophobia. The ancient Greek word for home is oikos. And thus, oikophobia, Scruton wrote, is stretching the Greek a little, the repudiation of inheritance and of home. It manifests as a consolidated, wide-spanning offensive
Starting point is 00:50:38 against the historical, theological, literary, legal, and social inheritance that formed the modern West, he said. He observed that the left's oikophobic movement was cultivated in Western universities over decades. It was propelled especially by the Frankfurt School, a left-wing academic circle that originated in the Weimar Republic of the interwar period. Of course, Frankfurt School was heavily involved in um not just universities but culture especially movies and things like that uh critically its founding thinkers moved to american universities during the 1930s and within which they exerted a profound
Starting point is 00:51:19 and lasting influence uh many of the writers and i I list a bunch of them, which you probably would not know, describe the institutions and the very structure of Western civilization as being inherently oppressive. Sound familiar? They've been building this up for a century, folks. They've been corrupting the institutions for a century or more. They have been marching through the institutions for a century or more. They have been marching through the institutions for a century or more. Just as Antonio Gramsci, founder of the Italian Communist Party,
Starting point is 00:51:52 the person that Pete Buttigieg's dad spent his entire life studying and celebrating, and then sent him to Harvard to study under somebody that also was an admirer and a follower of the Italian Marxists that immigrated to the country. The Frankfurt School began a surreptitious, long-standing war against the foundations of Western civilization from inside its finest academic institutions. In his excellent book, Fools, Frauds, and Firebrands, Thinkers on the New Left, Roger Scruton dismantles the intellectual nonsense machine, he called it. Created by the modern left, he observes that according to the left-wing rubric,
Starting point is 00:52:35 the, quote, condition of society is essentially one of domination, in which people are bound to each other by their attachments and distinguished by rivalries and competition. And they used to make it about social class and economic things. As I've pointed out many times, they realized by the middle of the 20th century that wasn't working. We're going to make it about race. And we're going to make it about sex.
Starting point is 00:53:01 And that's exactly what we did. They did. The left forged new cultural fault lines out of race, sex, and sexuality. This politics of personal identity eventually evolved into the woke dialectic, which now dominates our universities with its crude caricatures and biases. And I would say prejudices. Importantly, this is not the first time that the intelligentsia had led Western societies dangerously astray. In a recent essay, Niall Ferguson illustrates the parallels between the left's ideological
Starting point is 00:53:36 capture of the modern university and the leading role played by German academics and the Nazi movement. He says, non-Jewish German academia didn't just follow Hitler down the path to hell. It led the way. Anyone who has a naive belief in the power of higher education to instill ethical values hasn't studied the history of German universities in the Third Reich. A university degree, far from inoculating Germans against Nazism, made them more likely to embrace it.
Starting point is 00:54:05 That's very important. Because for the longest time, haven't you heard? How did the most scientifically and culturally advanced Western nation, Germany, fall for this stuff? The universities. The educational system. What have they focused on here? This is why I focus so much on homeschooling.
Starting point is 00:54:29 You've got to get your kids out of this assembly line to hell. It's an assembly line to hell for our society, and it's an assembly line to hell for them individually, rejecting God and Christ. And so that's where your battle is. Your battle is not on that debate stage. Western civilization is being destroyed, and they've got these two idiots up on stage hurling insults at each other.
Starting point is 00:54:56 Well, how did he look? How did she look? How did they react to this? What was that? Who had the best sound bites? Who owned the other person? Folks, our society is being burned down by design. We don't have the great replacement.
Starting point is 00:55:10 We've got the great judgment of God on us. Just look at who's picked to be our ruler. Is that debate last night not evidence of God's judgment against us? And we can say that about all of the Western countries, all of them. Last night, not evidence of God's judgment against us. And we can say that about all of the Western countries. All of them have leaders that are in bed with and beholden to and walking in lockstep with this globalist agenda to take everything from us and enslave us. That is God's judgment, folks. It is a global judgment on these civilizations. He says, the ideological basis, I'm sorry, not ideological, theological basis of the modern West,
Starting point is 00:55:58 Christianity has been assailed ferociously by the secular left. And who do we have to defend it? We got a bunch of people who went to seminaries. Seminaries. They're for the most part are as bad as the regular universities. And so they got, you know, they got rainbow stuff all over their pulpits. The attack gained momentum throughout the 20th century. It was given a strong boost by the popular new atheist movement of the early 2000s,
Starting point is 00:56:30 which targeted Christianity and the Bible in particularly. Yeah, that's right. So Orwell said in 1941, he wrote a short essay called England, Your England, talking about how they had mocked traditional customs and simple patriotism, the kind of stuff that they mock Kevin Costner for trying to do in his movie. I don't know if he pulled it off or not. But Orwell said in 1941, England, Your England. This is three years before he wrote 1984 and 1948. I'm sorry, seven years. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:12 And left-wing circles that has always felt that there's something slightly disgraceful and being an Englishman and that it is a duty to snigger at every English institution. See? Oh, same thing now here in America. Somebody does a heartfelt story about America. First time I saw this, we had the video store early 1980s. I was all about the catalog. And we had a guy who came to work for us.
Starting point is 00:57:37 His family was very, very rich. He was in college and they'd given him a Mercedes to drive around in. And it always was strange to me that he wanted to work in the video store because he obviously didn't need the money but he liked movies and he liked talking to people and um so one day he's there and i'm talking to him about movies i said uh uh ever seen uh you know i said something about how the west was won or i had a trailer of it or something. Somehow it came up and he'd never seen how the West was one.
Starting point is 00:58:11 So you've never seen how the West is one. That's like the American great mythology about founding of this country. He never saw it. I explained it to him and he just kind of thumbed his nose. I don't see that you don't want to see that's how we got to where we are that's that's my worldview right there pal uh not i don't get my worldview from the franklin school i get it from john ford get it from the john ford school uh anyway there are a lot of different directors he did direct a
Starting point is 00:58:46 segment of it and it was kind of disjointed but it was a great movie i saw it and it made such a big impression on me when i was a kid it was such a wide screen they only had three movie theaters when i was growing up in tampa and they were all downtown they had the classic tampa theater which they spent millions of dollars making this thing very ornate. Unfortunately, I never thought it was very beautiful. It was kind of a Spanish architecture that I never really liked, but they made it look like you were outdoors under the stars, you know, and like there was a balcony there that, you know, it was pretty, pretty amazing. And it still is a very amazing building still there.
Starting point is 00:59:23 Then there was one right across the street from it. And then there's one down the way. And one down the way had set up their, um, uh, set up their small movie theater, had an incredibly wide screen. And so they start the movie and then the curtains open up, you know, like a typical wide screen would be, and then it keeps opening up and it was like 180 degrees going around you and um so it was it was pretty impressive that they had done such an ultra widescreen production but and it played there for quite some time went to see it several times but
Starting point is 00:59:54 uh yeah that's um you can push people at a young age one way or the other, can't you? So, he said, it's a duty to snigger at every English institution. From horse racing to suet pudding, it is a strange fact, but it is unquestionably true that almost any English intellectual
Starting point is 01:00:19 would feel more ashamed of standing to attention during God Save the King than of stealing from a poor box. See, that's what's wrong with our country. Part of that is what people are trying to reclaim in the MAGA movement. I understand what they're looking for. MAGA people, you're not going to find that in Donald Trump.
Starting point is 01:00:46 He doesn't share your values. He doesn't share your concerns. He doesn't share your constitution. He doesn't share your culture. He doesn't share your religion. And he cares nothing for you. We'll be right back. Thank you. you're listening to the david knight show well i want to uh read you a note from david weatherly his wife is undergoing surgery this
Starting point is 01:02:46 morning and um it may still be going it was scheduled to start early early this morning at 7 a.m um well i hope it's over i hope it hasn't had to go on for that long uh i'll just read you what he wrote and tell you that he and his wife could certainly use your prayers this morning. He said, it's just after 4 a.m. I'm taking my wife, Melissa over to the Orlando regional medical center, which is going to have heart surgery performed on her this morning.
Starting point is 01:03:14 Something called a fib, uh, something I know about long story short involves deliberately scarring her heart tissue. Uh, as if the Trump juice didn't do that already, to control her AFib. Dr. Google says there's possible side effects, one of them being death. So they could certainly use your prayers. He said she also has the flu.
Starting point is 01:03:36 So her surgery was supposed to start at 7 a.m. this morning. So please keep David and his wife in your prayers. And I want to thank those who have sent checks. I think we moved it up on the gas gauge here. First week of September, checks and cash that were sent in the mail. RD from Oklahoma, HD from North Carolina, TK from Ohio. Thank you very much. Appreciate that.
Starting point is 01:04:06 That's very generous. Marty K, Timothy W, Michael T, Anita S, Joel B, Ben and Cindy B, Mark C, Gene and Michael M. And all of you, several of these people made very, very generous contributions. I really appreciate that. And Gene and Michael Wright, thank you for your excellent pro-life coverage of Daleiden and the FASAC victims of the lawfare. Our two adult children were adopted and were homeschooled. I wish the women voting for Lala would see, and she doesn't say Lala, I say Lala, would see the abortion for what it is, murder. And I tweeted out yesterday afternoon after the show, I said,
Starting point is 01:05:00 if only Trump would talk about David Daleiden, because Lala Harris is trying to scare people about how Trump is going to come after them and so forth. But I said, here's the situation. She does that. Here's a set. And of course she did. He didn't have me to come back for it. But when she does that, I said, he needs to talk about David Daleiden, which I had talked
Starting point is 01:05:23 about. And I pointed out that David Daleiden said uh she actually came after me she wants to tell everybody that trump is going to persecute them for political purposes that's what she did to me she persecuted a whistleblower she didn't go after the wrongdoer she didn't go after the people who were killing babies for hire to harvest their organs, harvesting their organs while they're alive, and then sending them to Fauci, it turns out, and others like that. And so I said, you know, he could turn this whole thing around,
Starting point is 01:05:57 and he could talk about how this is heinous, and he could talk about it in a way that he doesn't have to, um, be hypocritical about it. You know, cause if he talks about my body, my choice, um, he didn't care about our bodies and our choices when they were putting out the mandates about lockdowns and masks and all the rest of this stuff.
Starting point is 01:06:18 Uh, but that would have been an opportunity for him to talk about it would have been an opportunity for him, uh, to move the bar. Even if he doesn't have the guts to show people the babies ripped apart. You don't have the, you can't do that. You can't even show the, uh,
Starting point is 01:06:36 40 ultrasound or little baby Samuel grabbing the surgeon's finger. You can't show the positive sides of it. You can't show this is a real human being and you can't show what they do. The real human being, you can't and won't talk about it at all. You deserve to lose. You coward, you Craven coward.
Starting point is 01:06:57 You'll do anything. The globalists tell you to do. You'll sell anything. They tell you to do. You'll come out and you'll make fun. You'll be the comedian along with Fauci's straight man, about any alternative treatments after they scared everybody to death of the flu. So let's talk a little bit about what he could have talked about instead of cats and pets and Haitians. He could have talked about this, which is actually happening in El Paso.
Starting point is 01:07:26 It's not just Aurora, Colorado, just outside of Denver. It's not crime inside of Denver. It's not even the crime in Smithfield, Ohio, but it's also in El Paso. And it's the same Venezuelan gang that's there. Hatchet-wielding, hard-partying migrants take over a Texas hotel and turn it into a haven for this Venezuelan gang, the Tren de Aragua gang. It's my guess.
Starting point is 01:07:54 I don't speak Spanish. I have no idea how that's pronounced. But it's in El Paso. And they're hanging out in a hotel that's, interestingly enough, called the Gateway Hotel because El Paso is really kind of a gateway for this stuff. Cops have been called nearly 700 times to this one hotel in El Paso. Surveillance footage shows one man wielding a hatchet. Others are spotted with knives.
Starting point is 01:08:19 At least one man was seen firing a gun, said the El Paso County attorney. Local officials are now working to shut down the hotel and take back control of the business which they say has become a blight on the city of 680,000 and it's not just that one hotel el paso is known as a waypoint for his venezuelan gang members after they cross in the u.s and before they head on to cities like New York and Chicago and Denver. That's nothing. Chicago. Problems with these Venezuelan gangs as well. So gang members have also sought refuge at another hotel in El Paso,
Starting point is 01:08:56 a Motel 6. I guess they leave the lights on for them. Biden has left the lights on. That should be the motto of Border Patrol. We'll leave the lights on for you. How about that? Two Venezuelan migrants believed to be linked to the gang ran off to the El Paso motel in June, three days after allegedly taking part in a violent jewelry store robbery in Denver.
Starting point is 01:09:21 Yeah. So this is there should be concern due to the establishment, the rise of Venezuelan criminal organization, trend day Aragua at the gateway hotel. We discovered several Venezuelans have the tattoo identifiers said one El Paso cop, just like, uh, these other gangs, right? It's like MS 13. They, they it's written all over their face. That to be a real inspector. Clouseau not to understand what is going on here. They just don't care.
Starting point is 01:09:53 They don't care. It's literally written across her face, but let's talk about the pets. Yeah. That's what Trump chose to talk about. Probably under the advice of Laura Loomer and Matt Gates. So, uh, this was sent to me by listener bruce and i think it is a perfect metaphor for the u.s and what is going on with the open borders you know we tell everybody come here we got all kinds of free stuff we'll give you free free free come here and fulfill your dreams. America is a land of dreams.
Starting point is 01:10:26 We want dreamers. We want people who have a, it's not an American dream, but they want the migrants' dream of owning a home here and having the government help them to get it with nothing down. And so in Pakistan, they opened up a mall, and they called it the Dream Bazaar. Oh, okay. And they were telling people that they get pretty much anything they wanted at an incredibly low price.
Starting point is 01:10:54 Here's what happened. You can see here's the mall, the Dream Bazaar in Pakistan. Then this happened. Total chaos, grabbing everything, looting everything, destroying it. Look at that. Oh, kind of looks like Colorado or Smithfield. Into absolute chaos. This is Dream Bazaar. It's located in the city of Karachi in Pakistan.
Starting point is 01:11:40 According to reports, it was established by a Pakistani businessman living abroad. The mall was marketed as Pakistan's first mega thrift store. And the promises were lofty. Apparently, you could buy anything for as less as 50 Pakistani rupees. That's around 18 cents. 18 cents. The opening day was a party. The dime store.
Starting point is 01:12:01 The store announced special discounts. There were aggressive marketing campaigns. It was set to be a grand affair. Dream Bazaar opened at around 3 p.m. local time. But by 3.30 p.m., it was completely looted. Thousands gathered outside the mall ahead of the opening. When the gates opened, they rushed in. The crowd swelled every minute.
Starting point is 01:12:25 The mall management tried to keep things under control, but soon it was impossible. And things descended into chaos. People looted the entire store. They took whatever they saw. Some carried them out in their arms, while others brought bags to stuff goods and carry them home. Meanwhile, the security there was overwhelmed. The crowd overpowered them. They beat up the security personnel,
Starting point is 01:13:09 glasses were shattered, the property was destroyed. Some people even filmed themselves while vandalizing the store. That sounds familiar, doesn't it? Outside the mall, things came to a standstill. Traffic stopped and people gathered. But where were the police? Well, they were nowhere to be seen. Oh, sounds familiar. others lamented the lack of rules or ethics but more importantly it's a commentary on the country itself and its economy well you know obviously the problem is these people are refugees and they need help and they need to come to America they got a dream and a lot of them fulfill their dream at the dream bazaar they looted took whatever they wanted they were told you can buy
Starting point is 01:14:02 anything for 18 cents so they show up and it's like, well, I think I'll take everything. It is a perfect metaphor, I think, for what is happening with the open borders of the West, not just the United States. Understand, this is a globalist agenda. It's a globalist agenda that we've seen unfolding for quite some time. And it is a globalist agenda that trump never did anything to stop except when they told him that you got to control the borders because of the germ game and so to play the germ game he controlled the borders for a short period of time but he didn't build the wall he didn't do anything else prior to that and of course then they opened everything up for everybody at the next stage of the germ game.
Starting point is 01:14:46 But the only difference is that these people are not crossing an international border to do this. They're just coming into a mall to take what they want. But we're promising people the world. And when they come here, they're going to take whatever they want. So we have the UN legal officer. And of course, they're going to take whatever they want. So we have the UN legal officer. And of course, they're involved in this, heavily involved in all this. These NGOs, the UN, and of course, privately being assisted and funded by the U.S. government as well. A UN legal officer is caught on hidden camera stating that the un's ambition is to become a world
Starting point is 01:15:27 government uh this is stephen crowder and i'm doing a james o'keefe type of thing they recorded a un official a legal officer for the un or hey paoletti a self-described globalist and legal affairs official in the UN treaty section. He said on camera, they created this institution, the UN, which is the closest we've ever gotten to kind of like a world government, a world state, he said. The undercover reporter asked, you mean like a world government? He says, exactly. He said, one of the objectives of the UN is to create an identity of global citizenship, of someone who shares an identity, a political identity with everyone on the planet.
Starting point is 01:16:17 He limited, however, that the UN is not as effective as it should be, though this could change if the organization had its own military power. You see, when they were talking about Brexit, they mentioned the fact, well, you know, the EU is looking to have an EU army. There's a couple of things that are necessary for a global government. Like any other government, you have to have a source of revenue. You have to have a global tax. Oh, you mean like a carbon tax or something like that? Yeah, exactly like that. You've got to have a global problem.
Starting point is 01:16:51 A pandemic MacGuffin or a climate MacGuffin. And then people have to pay for this problem. Some kind of a global tax. And then you have to have a way to enforce that so you got to have a global police force or a global military that's there as well all those things are necessary and so when the eu was rumored that they wanted to have their own their own army everybody debunked that said ah that's just a crazy conspiracy theory The next thing they'll be doing is telling us that the Haitians are eating cats. And then after Brexit, the documents were released.
Starting point is 01:17:33 And it's like, yes, we are looking at how we can set up an EU army. But they just flat out lied about it. And so did the media as well. The UN doesn't have its own army, Pelletti said. The undercover journalist says, well, should it? Oh, absolutely, he said. Exactly. You're not going to have a real government if you don't have a real army
Starting point is 01:17:54 and if you don't have real taxes that are global. So, he said, in terms of asked being asked for to respond to this um a u.n official said well i will just state for a fact that this is not you know when someone is recorded without their knowledge in a private setting we need to call la la harris and have her prosecute this reporter see that's what happened with david del. Now, this particular guy did not admit to a crime. What he did was he admitted to a criminal conspiracy for a global government, and he's in their legal department. But she said, I don't think any good journalist could interpret this as being the official position of the UN. And you know, this journalist should be
Starting point is 01:18:43 jailed because they're obviously not good. And this is obviously misinformation. And the UN. And you know, this journalist should be jailed because they're obviously not good. And this is obviously misinformation. And the UN, among other global organizations, has called for us to punish that with being locked up, as a matter of fact. The Summit of the Future is coming up. The Pact for the Future is coming up and just coming up at the end of this month. Very, very soon. Last American Vagabond has been covering that extensively, trying to get people to wake up to that. I'm going to have Ryan Christian from Last American Vagabond. He's coming and he's going to be on the third hour today.
Starting point is 01:19:18 We're going to talk about that. We're going to talk about the Pack for the Future, Summit for the Future. We'll see if he's got any comments on this um, uh, this show, this pageant that we were presented last night as well, but this document, the, uh, packed for the future has 60 actions that member states should take and nearly all of them, the agreement makes it clear that the country's interests revolve around the UN and its globalist system. You see, it's, they're even talking about it being the UN 2.0.
Starting point is 01:19:47 This is the point at which it starts to consolidate and subordinate the members that are there. Buried toward the end of the pact is a requirement that member states embed UN agreements and resolutions in their own national laws. The pact will be accompanied by two annexed documents. and resolutions in their own national laws. The pact will be accompanied by two annexed documents, the Global Digital Compact and the Pact for the Future Implementation Roadmap. See, it's that thing, the implementation roadmap. It's like the germ games that they practiced for 20 years.
Starting point is 01:20:21 How are we going to implement this? Well, okay, we put out some uh some legislative patterns you know after the simulation the germ game two months before 9-11 and then the anthrax attack a week later then two months after that they put out a roadmap said here give yourself this power you're going to need it coming up and that's exactly what they used 20 years later the model state health emergency powers act after the summit the un will monitor the implementation Coming up, and that's exactly what they used 20 years later, the Model State Health Emergency Powers Act. After the summit, the UN will monitor the implementation of the pact by countries who have signed on to it
Starting point is 01:20:53 with regular reviews and assessments to ensure progress and accountability. Now, this is coming from the expose news. They point out, since they're in the UK, that the UK has expressed its commitment to it. And then they ask the question, did you give your government or its appointees permission to negotiate or to agree to this pact on your behalf? Did your government make you aware of the pact's commitments, the impact that it will have on you and your children's lives, or even notify you that this is being negotiated
Starting point is 01:21:22 and being put to unelected bureaucrats to sign on your behalf and it's on the 22nd of september so we're only 11 days away it's very similar to what was going on with the un pandemic treaty and changing the irh ihra rules and sneaking that stuff in. And unfortunately that got significant coverage and push back on that. But even taking a look at the Paris climate accord, all these questions, did your government or its appointees give permission to this?
Starting point is 01:22:01 How are they ratifying this? You know, did our Senate ratify the Paris Climate Accord? No, they didn't. John Kerry said he and Obama did it themselves. We self-ratified that. And the Republicans let him get away with it. That was in 2015.
Starting point is 01:22:18 When Trump took office in 2017, nobody would say, and the Republicans were in the majority in the senate mitch mcconnell could have stopped it he could have held a vote and that would have shut it down instead mitch mcconnell just went along with the fact that kerry and obama supposedly ratified us into a treaty just forget about what the constitution says right that doesn't apply at all to these people it really doesn't it's only useful for the purpose of us to look at what a legitimate government should look like and would do and it is also the constitution is only important for that and to show us that these people are lying criminal oath breakers who had never had any intention of paying any attention to the Constitution that they swore to as a condition of their office and their authority. So they are without legitimate authority.
Starting point is 01:23:16 When people like Mitch McConnell, and I would say every single Republican senator. Did you see Ted Cruz or Rand Paul or Mike Lee or any of these people that are supposedly supposed to be about freedom and Constitution? Did you see any of them object to it? Of course, you didn't see Marco Rubio or John Cornyn or anything. No, they didn't care. None of these Republicans cared. And Democrats just go along with it because it's the party line. And so when Trump gets in, well, I don't know what we need to do about it he's got
Starting point is 01:23:46 uh this this globalist this environmentalist this guy who pushed pedophilia at the boy scouts rex tillerson and um he's got him as uh he's got and then he's got ivanka and they're saying no don't get out of the paris climate accord uh and then there were got Ivanka and they're saying, no, don't get out of the Paris climate accord. And then there were people in the administration saying, no, you need to get out of it. And so what he did was he pretended that we were in it rather than just saying, this is null and void rather than publicly saying Mitch McConnell needs to take the lead on this or any Senator needs to say, this is null and void because we never voted on
Starting point is 01:24:25 this but they won't do it and so when you look at something like the pact for the future it is very concerning because it wouldn't be the first time they've slipped something like this through now let's talk about really what happened in haiti and let's talk about the fact that the biden administration and blinken own this situation this is what they should have been talking about instead of the pets and the wild geese and poisoning pigeons in the park or whatever. Secretary Blinken visited Haiti as the U.S. backed police force from Kenya is failing to wrestle control from the Haitian gangs there. So we got gangs everywhere. You know, anarchy is not really the absence of government. It's not really that there's no government.
Starting point is 01:25:11 What anarchy is, is really a lot of little tiny competing governments like gangs that are happening. That's what anarchy looks like. Libertarian Institute says the U.S.-backed government and Kenyan police struggling for legitimacy as the Kenyans have been unable to take port-au-prince from the gangs and the paramilitary groups according to the washington post blinken's trip to haiti is an unusual attempt to boost the country's interim leader and deliver a message of support for u.s-backed international policing mission that has so far failed to make a significant impact.
Starting point is 01:25:47 After Haitian President Mosey was assassinated in 2021, when Biden was president, or figurehead, let's just put it that way, Biden was figurehead at that point in time, the so-called Biden administration backed Ariel Henry's claim to power in Port-au-Prince. Under Henry, Haiti descended into chaos. Paramilitaries and gangs taking control of most of the capital city. In response, the White House and Henry worked out a plan with Nairobi to have armed Kenyans deployed to Haiti to take control of the armed groups and to transfer it to the U.S.-backed government. However, the plan backfired, and gangs shut down the airport in Port-au-Prince,
Starting point is 01:26:31 while Henry was in Nairobi inking the deal to have the Kenyan soldiers, that he called police, deployed to Haiti, and he was unable to return to the country. But Trump wants to talk about pet food. Does he even have a clue about this? Nairobi's security force has failed to have a major impact on the ground. With its Haiti policy failing, this White House is seeking to escalate the Kenyan mission to Haiti by declaring the police to be official UN peacekeepers.
Starting point is 01:27:11 Let's bring the UN into it. Appeal to the authority of the UN. See, we are the UN. We are NATO. They're not these separate organizations that are attacking. We, our government is using these organizations to start wars, to attack us. So there's video of Haitians fleeing the country's violence, you know, running to the mountains and so forth. And then, you know, coming to America and going to Smithfield, Ohio and places like that. That's what should be talked about.
Starting point is 01:27:43 Why do we have 20,000 Haitian refugees in the first place? Failed Biden policies. But we're going to give them a pass on that because Trump doesn't know, doesn't care. This is why I say he is absolutely going to be useless to help people. And I've said it before, I'll say it again. It'd be better for me, personally, in this broadcast, if Trump were president. Because then I could show everybody, again, what an incompetent, bumbling tool he is.
Starting point is 01:28:14 Or fool, depending on which it is. But if he loses, everybody's going to say, well, look at Lala Harris, and you didn't defend Trump and so forth. And I was like, well, my answer will be they picked whoever was going to be the most useful for chaos in America, whether they think it was Trump or Harris. And so you have the governor of Pennsylvania who was one of the two governors that Lala was thinking of. Josh Shapiro in Pennsylvania, or Tim Waltz, she went with what a lot of people call the more radical of the two, and I think that probably he was, or is, because he is so focused on things like, you know, gender mutilation of children.
Starting point is 01:29:01 He loves that. That's just a source of pride and joy for him to be able to chop up the genitals of little kids and give them drugs to sterilize them and and kill them at an early age but this is what's happening in pennsylvania this is her uh plan b governor he's punishing anybody who works for the pennsylvania government he's taking away their first amendment rights completely the governor of pennsylvania has issued an executive order stripping state employees of the first amendment rights the foundation for individual rights and expression they go by the name fire that's the acronym says that shapiro's quote sweeping executive order insists that public
Starting point is 01:29:45 employees even when not on duty even when not on duty that's such a perversion of the first amendment the first amendment protects your free speech even while you're on duty and we just had a supreme court decision about that coach who silently prayed on the 50-yard line after the football games. And they got fired. And they said, no, you can do that. You can't stop the free expression of religion. You can't stop the free expression of political beliefs and things like that in school simply because somebody is on the payroll of the government. That's not what establishment of religion is about.
Starting point is 01:30:27 Not at all. Establishment of religion, as I've pointed out many times, this country was founded, one of the core values of this country was the free exercise of religion because there had been so much religious persecution where they had come from in England and so forth. And so you had all these different states had an official state religion. In Pennsylvania, it was the Quakers. In Rhode Island, it was the Baptists.
Starting point is 01:30:51 In Maryland, it was the Catholics. In a lot of the New England states, it was the Congregationalists. They were very concerned when they created the federal government that somebody there would say, this is going to be the official American religion, and it would come after their established religions. And so that was what that was about. With an established religion, you had to, you were forced in some states to attend that particular church,
Starting point is 01:31:18 and all of them, you were required to pay money, which is exactly parallel to what is going on with the official indoctrination camps that we call schools now, the seminaries for Satan, that secular religion of secular humanism. We are not right now at the moment forced to attend. That used to be what was happening when I was a kid. You were forced to attend, and you were forced to support it like to be the what was happening when i was a kid you were forced to attend and you were forced to support it like an official state religion now you don't have to
Starting point is 01:31:51 attend but you still have to pay to support it another reason why it should be shut down so um you're not establishing a religion if you're simply an employee who puts a Bible verse up on their desk or who prays silently or does anything like that. So this is actually going to when they're not even on duty. They're now gagged from expressing any opinion that someone somewhere somehow could define as scandalous or disgraceful. These are very subjective terms, aren't they? And this is much broader than religious freedom even. This would extend to politics and any kind of social commentary, anything that was scandalous or disgraceful.
Starting point is 01:32:40 And this is coming from some of the most scandalous, disgraceful people we've ever seen in America. FIRE called that an impossibly vague restriction, effectively prohibiting wide swaths of speech protected by the First Amendment. They said free speech is the keystone of our democracy, and today it's being threatened in the Keystone State by Governor Shapiro. No elected official can slap a gag order like this on state workers this is an abuse of power and we're looking forward to challenging this flagrant government overstep in court so i mean what is going to be scandalous or what is going to be disgraceful or prohibited by the people what is their standard it's just going to be whatever they don't like
Starting point is 01:33:24 this is very similar by the way to what the the Republicans and DeSantis did in Florida. You're not going to say anything that's going to hurt the feelings of Jewish people, or we'll come after you and put you in jail as a crime. Free speech is freedom to offend. And the response to offensive speech is to speak back, to debate, to expose. But what if it is not about Israel or politics? What if it's about something you say about the misgendering of kids, the gender gaslighting?
Starting point is 01:34:02 Well, that would fall into that, I'm sure, as well for the Democrats. They sent a letter a few weeks ago, concerned about this, but Shapiro's office did not respond. The state is strategically putting all the chess pieces in place to punish everyday Americans for nothing more than saying something that the government doesn't like. Because, you see, this will apply eventually to climate deniers. We're called deniers if we deny their Gaia religion.
Starting point is 01:34:32 We're infidels. Call me a climate infidel. Let's just make it clear. I'll accept that term. I accept the term conspiracy theorist, anti-vaxxer. I am a climate infidel as well. All those things will be punished by the government of course um our job is to smack those pieces off the board before somebody gets fired for speaking their mind and in fact the third u.s circuit court of appeals whose decisions are
Starting point is 01:34:55 binding in pennsylvania earlier blocked a state agency enforcement of an agency's ban on workers wearing political masks well i think the n95 are political masks i don't know his administration then followed with a warning about anti-semitism see this is what he's targeting just like the santas anti-semitism uh christism of israel must be punished it is more important than the first amendment but But then they also throw in there, to try to balance it out, was Islamophobia. There we go. See, we're not just doing this for Israel.
Starting point is 01:35:32 We're doing it for Islam as well. Well, we're the Christians. Is it okay to hate Christians? I guess it is, right? And quite frankly, that's not a balance. I should be able to criticize Islam. I should be able to criticize Islam. I should be able to criticize Israel. I should be able to criticize anything that I want to criticize.
Starting point is 01:35:51 If I can't, then it isn't free speech, is it? So, and when we talk about the information that's out there, how do we determine? I spend a lot of time talking about this, um, this, uh, the eating of pets and Smithfield, uh, I was talking about it the other day. I haven't said, uh, you know, I should have tied, uh, somehow I should have tied Smithfield into the Simpsons. That's the town that they live in Smithfield. And, uh, my son said, it's funny.
Starting point is 01:36:22 You should mention that. Look at this meme that he'd saved on his phone. And, uh, you know, the, the Simpson's dog was saying his little helper and it's got Bart Simpson saying, uh, it's not safe for you to go outside right now. But when we look at that, how do we determine what's true and what's false? Well, you know, if the mayor says that it's true right i had that argument with jake tapper on twitter briefly until he banned me uh they had put out uh sam hyde whenever there's a shooting or something like that sam hyde will always uh put out a meme or his followers will put out a meme saying that they've apprehended the shooter at Sam Hyde or something like that and so CNN reported it and I trolled them on Jake Tapper reported I
Starting point is 01:37:11 trolled him on it and he said well we were told that by U.S. congressman I said oh so that's your standard you anything that a U.S. congressman tells you you'll put that out you won't check it right and then he banned me didn't want to respond anymore to me about that but that's true yeah what what is the standard and so um i had a listener send this to me i talked about the uh the truck that went through the bridge uh vertically not horizontally now the covered historical covered bridge is over 100 years old took it out because it was so heavy it was an electric vehicle a ford lightning the ford uh f 750 and he sent this to me he says no he says um it wasn't a ford f 750 but it was a um a dump truck that went through the bridge and that was interesting because and
Starting point is 01:38:09 so i looked at it and and you have two different statements you know what he sent me was and i don't want to discourage people from sending me stuff i've made many mistakes before and i corrected them sometimes i catch them before the people like the uh megawatts instead of kilowatts or kilowatts instead of megawatts. The other day I mentioned. But yeah, always tell me I want to correct it if I've got a mistake. But in this particular case, I think the AP got it wrong. I don't have a lot of respect for the AP. If you've noticed, if you listen to this program, you know, I call them associated propaganda all the time.
Starting point is 01:38:44 They're not associated press. These are the people who are supposedly the standard of objective journalism, and yet they're enforcing and have been enforcing redefinition of terms on people for a very long time. And so here's the AP story. It says dump truck leaves a hole in a covered bridge when it crashes into the river in Maine. The driver of a dump truck learned the hard way that it's not best to tempt fate on a covered bridge originally built before the Civil War. And it's a very brief article. It's only about five paragraphs.
Starting point is 01:39:19 Now, they said the weight limit on the bridge was three tons, and the dump truck carrying crushed stone was, quote, multiple times that, unquote, said Paul Merrill, spokesperson for the Maine Department of Transportation. That's the only quote they have in here. And the quotes are not around the term dump truck. And so when I looked at this, I thought, well, where did I get this from? Well, I got it from the drive, the drive, the drive is a publication. That's all about cars and transportation, stuff like that, right? Cars and trucks and stuff like that. Here's their headline.
Starting point is 01:39:56 Overweight Ford F seven 50 plunges through historic wooden bridge in Maine. So the question is who's right. These are contradictory. One of them says it's a dump truck. The other one says it's a Ford F-750. Well, take a look at that bridge. Scroll that up a little bit, Travis. Look at the bridge on the left. Now, do you think that first of all, I looked at that and I was like, I don't know that a dump truck, a big dump truck would actually fit through that.
Starting point is 01:40:26 I actually don't think it would. And I don't think if you pull that back up again, I don't think a dump truck, yeah, there's a dump truck there. I don't think a dump truck. That's actually a Ford F-750, so I think it's just disputes in terminology. Oh, it could be both of those. Okay. I think the F-750 is set up like a mini dump truck.
Starting point is 01:40:40 I see. So that's why they called it a dump truck. So maybe they're both kind of right. But I even looked up how they called it a dump truck so maybe they're both kind of right but i even looked up how high is a standard dump truck a standard dump truck is um 18 to 20 feet high i don't think that ford f750 is that high even with that dump truck attachment on it so it's just semantics that are there but again the bridge height is only 10 feet high a standard dump truck is going to be 18 to 20 feet high so again when we look at this you know we could get tied up in the in the dump truck or f750 stuff just like they're getting
Starting point is 01:41:22 tied up well is it cats or is it geese that they're primarily killing there? The real issue is why do we have so many Haitian refugees? Why are they overwhelming that city and these other issues that are there? That's the bigger picture. And the bigger picture of the truck stuff is the fact that we have these mandates that are being put on us. Unbelievably expensive vehicles that are being put out there and nobody wants them. And it's all part of taking down Western civilization. Volkswagen can't compete because energy costs are too high.
Starting point is 01:42:03 They're shutting down steel plants. The last steel plant in the UK shut down about a year ago because the energy costs are too high. They can't compete with China. China's been given a preference with the Paris Climate Accord. We didn't get a chance to vote on it. Our representatives didn't get a chance to vote on the Paris climate accord. This is how they're rolling this stuff out on us. And we're being rolled by this show that keeps us focused on the personalities and the parties that are involved. So we're gonna take a quick break and we're going to come right back.
Starting point is 01:42:37 Stay with us. They're doing what in the place they named after me. Good thing. I have the David Knight show to keep me informed on the plots of these traitors. Making sense common again. This is the David Knight Show. We do. I mean, certainly the local elections make sure you don't have a city council, a mayor like they have in Smithfield.
Starting point is 01:43:03 That's very important. But there's other things that we can do to protect ourselves. I talk about the civildefensemanual.com when we start looking at the gangs that are coming into this country. Being left alone, the police, I'm not going to do anything about that. Why is that a surprise? I mean, we saw that going back to the Rodney King riots. In L.A., when those Rodney King riots were happening in L.A., it was still a novel thing to have SWAT teams and armored vehicles for the police and everything. That was all happening first and foremost in L.A. with Daryl Gates,
Starting point is 01:43:38 the local cop that was running things in that city. He was militarizing the police like nobody else was doing. And then when the Rodney King riots broke out, what did they do? They circled the wagons around the police station, around City Hall, and let everybody else fend for themselves. Well, you better start learning how to fend for yourself. You better start having people who are going to help you circle the wagons around your home.
Starting point is 01:44:01 And that's what the civildefensemanual.com is really excellent about. And also making sure that if there's some kind of grid down or societal collapse or emergency that you still have access to food. But there's other things that we need to do. And that is to protect ourselves financially. What can you do with that? Certainly the stock market is looking shaky.
Starting point is 01:44:21 Economically, things are looking very shaky. It may get even worse. Goldman Sachs reports that gold shines bright amidst all the risks that are here with commodities and other things goldman sachs indicates current landscape poses significant risks for many popular commodities with gold emerging as the premier safeguard against value erosion and that's's why a lot of people jokingly call it gold in sacks. Analysts at Goldman Sachs assert we strongly believe in the diversifying role of commodities and investment portfolios based on several structural drivers, including commodities
Starting point is 01:44:57 hedging role against supply disruptions, not an uncommon occurrence in energy, and the potential for sharp rallies and select industrial metals driven by a combination of long supply cycles and structural green metals demand growth, which would also indicate silver. However, this is the type of thing that is business as usual. We've always talked about these types of things. Business cycles, increase of inflation and stuff like that. This is very different, though though because these people are very intent on completely restructuring the financial system they want to put us into a digital surveillance mode a central bank digital
Starting point is 01:45:38 currency and the rest of this stuff and then of course we have just on the economic side, not even looking at the new world government police state surveillance stuff. We have this ongoing slow motion collapse of the commercial real estate market that was kicked off by Donald Trump. Nothing has been done to change any of that. It was the germ game proposal. That's going to take down most of the small and medium-sized banks, most likely. There may be a massive bailout, but I simply don't see them doing that for the small and medium-sized banks.
Starting point is 01:46:15 They only do that for the banks that are their partners, the too-big-to-fail banks. So with all that on the horizon, what should you do? Well, according to Goldman Sachs, they say we're going to focus on our highest conviction views in the current environment, namely higher implied oil volatility. We're going to be long on gold. It means they're going to invest in it and hold on to it.
Starting point is 01:46:38 And short, the long-dated European gas. The surge in gold purchases by central banks has been remarkable. Global net gold purchases by central banks reached 483 tons in the first half of this year. The most on record. It is a 5% increase over the previous record of the first half of the preceding year. So in 2023, the first half, they set a record. The first half of this year, they broke that record. It's a new record.
Starting point is 01:47:11 A 6% year-over-year increase, up 6% over the record last year. Goldman Sachs remains optimistic about gold's prospects. Gold stands out as the commodity where we have the highest confidence in the near-term upside. The firm has set a bullish target of $2,700 per ounce for early 2025, driven by three factors. First, they believe the tripling in central bank purchases since mid-2022 on fears about U.S. financial sanctions and U.S. sovereign debt is structural and will continue, they said, whether it is reported or unreported, they said. And so this is really what has kicked off the destruction of the petrodollar, and it's going to continue.
Starting point is 01:47:59 The financial sanctions of the Biden administration. The sovereign debt that was really kicked into high gear with Trump. Trump took that slope and he kicked it up to a new angle. And Biden continued on that trajectory, that same angle, both of them rapidly increasing sovereign debt. Secondly, they anticipate that imminent Fed rate cuts are poised to bring Western capital back into the gold market, a component that's largely absent of the sharp gold rally observed in the last two years. So that's their opinion.
Starting point is 01:48:37 And when we look at, hang on just one second here. When we look at the IRS, the IRS is saying, well, what can we do to try to get people a little bit more solvent? They're looking at, and of course this is limited by income means and they limit it to people who are below the median income. But the IRS is coming up with plans, floating plans on how to boost retirement savings with a $1,000 Savers Match Program. And I'm like, where's Congress in all this? Now the IRS is creating fiscal policy with this? Well, they're loosely basing it on the SECURE Act, SECURE 2.0 Act, to replace the savers credit. And what they're saying is that if you put into this savings program $1,000,
Starting point is 01:49:31 then the government will match it, you know, like in a matching employer's contribution. But, you know, it is, you're much better off instead of getting fiat currency and instead of only doing it once you're much better off with the tortoise in the hair approach right the tortoise does it slowly and surely step by step always doing it that's why Tony has set up the wolf pack for you to jump in at whatever level that you can afford and on a monthly basis each month set aside gold and silver depending on what level you put in he sends out a different package but you always get the discount of a group buy and so that's one way to gradually accumulate it uh keeps the irs
Starting point is 01:50:19 out of it and it keeps you out of the fiat currency. And so you can do that, or you can buy gold and silver directly with Tony. He doesn't have any lower limit on that. You can get to Tony through davidknight.gold. That'll take you to Wise Wolf. That's what Tony Hardeman has. And it's not just gold, but it's also silver. This is an article from zero hedge silver the unsung hero of the new economy saying silver demand is going to continue to surge as tony has said many times based on
Starting point is 01:50:54 things like solar panel uh solar yeah solar panels solar power artificial intelligence in 2023 alone the silver market experienced a 15 supply deficit furthermore the market is expected to reach a cumulative deficit of 1 million ounces between 2020 and 2024 and of course the trajectory of the green new deal which is what biden says they should have called the um the inflation reduction act and lala harris even referenced that say yeah we should have called it that uh that trajectory is going to go up even faster um travis says people in chatter commenting that most dump dump trucks are only about 12 feet high since the u.s interstate overpasses are between 14 and 16 i think maybe 18 to 20 is
Starting point is 01:51:46 probably with the bed raised to dump whatever it was carrying well that's that's reasonable um who knows uh but meanwhile um the world is burning down we'll take a quick break Sous-titrage ST' 501 You're listening to the david knight show all right so um yeah regardless of the height of the dump truck height of the bridge is 10 feet so if it's 12 feet or 18 feet uh and it didn't hit the top so it either wasn't a dump truck or it was an unbelievably, ridiculously heavy Ford F-150. And that was my point. I said, look at how heavy electric vehicles are. That truck weighs 9,000 pounds. Is that efficient?
Starting point is 01:53:15 No, it's not. How is that green? Green was supposed to be about being efficient. Nothing about this. It's all a massive transfer of wealth. It's all about making sure that we can't have private vehicles because they will not allow any so-called solution to their so-called problem except one. Just like with a vaccine, we've got a phony problem. We got the so-called pandemic the germ game and the only
Starting point is 01:53:46 solution that's going to be allowed is the vaccine we have a phony problem so-called global warming the only solution is going to be allowed are going to be very expensive very heavy vehicles and they're having to redesign parking garages uh because they said well if everybody buys electric vehicle, we put all of them in the parking garage. We don't have the capacity for that either. That's the issue. It's not about how this story was reported, but not any kind of dump truck is going to go there.
Starting point is 01:54:16 They could have called it that simply because they got a 9,000-pound ordinary F-750 and filled it with rocks but going back to 9-11 more fire department new york members have died from world trade center illnesses than were killed on 9-11 now dying slowly and this is not exactly because of what rudy did there's the and this is only looking at the fire department in new york this is not looking at people who were in other capacities you know there were other emergency workers policemen there are people who live there there are people who went in and cleaned up this mess that that happened 23 years ago they were in a rush to get all the evidence removed and so they sent people in they They didn't have masks on.
Starting point is 01:55:06 These people got respiratory illnesses. But this is looking primarily, as I've said many times, Rudy has killed more people, perhaps, than the so-called Saudis on magic carpets. He certainly has killed more firemen, although you could say that these people were there as part of their job at the initial event. 23 years after September 11th, illnesses linked to the World Trade Center terrorist attack have now killed more members of the New York City Fire Department than were killed that day. On that day, the Twin Towers fell and also Building 7. They don't ever talk about that
Starting point is 01:55:45 uh which was not hit by a plane 343 members of the fire department were killed and the 23 years since 360 members have died of world trade center related illnesses uh but not mentioned here is how many New Yorkers in general, right? Policemen, just ordinary people that were not there as emergency workers. We have seen our members become sick because of the time they spent working in the rescue and recovery. So they're going to go in and try to rescue and recover people that way. But the cleanup crews that went in that were not given masks, I remember it was a very big deal about, was it Christy Whitman, I think it was, and New Jersey, anyway, there was criticism of her, but not of Rudy for pushing so hard to get all this material removed, you know, the still burning thermite and things like that.
Starting point is 01:56:43 It was a cover-up. The cover-up was mandated and, of course, necessary for their purposes, but unnecessary to risk the lives of other people. And as that is happening, we look at what the bigger picture is now with the war in Ukraine. What they debated about was whether or not it would have started with Trump in office. And what was going to be done to stop it. And Lala Harris says, well, he's just going to surrender to stop it.
Starting point is 01:57:17 She's not promising to stop it. And he doesn't talk about his plan of how he would stop it. Like it's just going to be a charm offensive. That's how he's going to stop this war, with a charm offensive. Well, meanwhile, you have Lloyd Austin telling Zelensky that long-range strikes in Russia will not be a game changer. In other words, it's not going to be another red line. We're going to give you longer-range missiles.
Starting point is 01:57:44 You know, it was a big discussion, which weapons should we give going to give you longer range missiles you know it was a big discussion which weapons should we give or not give because this may you know obviously everybody knows at this point that nato is after russia uh but you know we don't want to ramp it up too quickly and so they got a series of red lines and they've been kicking these red lines down one after the other. And so now, you know, it was going to be a big red line to have F-16s, but they put F-16s in. Then according to them, I don't know, I haven't seen Russia taking credit for shooting down the F-16. According to them, it was friendly fire that shot down this F-16. Maybe it's just incompetence.
Starting point is 01:58:24 I don't know but now they are going to give them even longer range missiles to shoot into russia they're not going to stop until this thing escalates into a world war three that involves us that's the bottom line we're already in a world war three and they want it they want to ramp it up. And there's no talk or plan about stopping it on either side. La La doesn't even talk about stopping it. Trump doesn't talk about his plan that he claims that he's got. And the latest $250 million weapons package for Ukraine, approved and released by the Biden administration,
Starting point is 01:59:01 noticeably absent were the longer-range missiles, which Linsky had long been pleading for. But Austin is saying that's coming. Not a problem. We can do that. And we don't have to worry about crossing that red line either. There are a lot of targets, he said, in Russia. It's a big country, obviously.
Starting point is 01:59:23 And there is a lot of capability that ukraine has in terms of uavs and other things to address those targets he said an amazing cavalier attitude isn't it but then it starts to fall into place when you realize that the company that he used to work for raytheon is um the key supplier of all these new and replacement weapons that they're going to do. This is what Zelensky said. He said, we need to have these long-range capability so that Russia is motivated to seek peace. This is what this is about.
Starting point is 02:00:00 War is peace, as they said in 1984. And that's what Zelensky and Austin are saying. The Pentagon is inking a deal with Lockheed Martin and Raytheon. The people that Lloyd Austin worked for for so long that they had to have a special rule there to bring him back in the Pentagon. For the largest javelin missile order ever. And so, again, Raytheon and lockheed martin as a matter of fact you know lockheed martin was just recently in the news they're working with darpa for a surveillance and speech control of the internet wasn't that interesting that we have our military think tanks
Starting point is 02:00:41 and our big military contractors coming together to work about how they can watch us and censor us. My son saw that. He said, well, if only it had been Boeing, we could wrestle a bit easier that they were not going to be able to accomplish that. We're going to take a quick break and we're going to have our guests from
Starting point is 02:01:00 last American vagabond. Ryan Christensen is going to be on, and we're going to talk about what is going on with the UN Pact for the Future and the summit that is coming up in 11 days. We'll also talk a little bit about the state of politics here in this country. We'll be right back. ¶¶ S.A. © BF-WATCH TV 2021 ORGAN PLAYS ¶¶ Defending the American Dream. You're listening to The David Knight Show. All right, welcome back.
Starting point is 02:04:04 And joining us now is Ryan Christian from The Last American Vagabond. I wanted to get his, he's not part of the left-right Hegelian two-step here. So I wanted to get his take on the politics because, you know, it's just going to be, he said, she said, for most of the media, we're going to take a different approach to this and i also wanted to get him on because they're going to be having live coverage of the un summit um the pack for the future that's going to be happening there that's a very concerning thing that we need to have all eyes on because they keep playing this game over and over again but joining us now is ryan christian of the last american vagabond thank you for joining us ryan hey my pleasure david good to see you again good Good to see you. What was your take on the pageant last night?
Starting point is 02:04:49 Something up right there. The pageant or theater. What's interesting is, to be completely transparent, I didn't watch the entire thing. I have a hard time doing that these days in general. I know. I didn't watch the whole thing either. I had to get away from it. I had a friend send me a text message and say, this is crazy.
Starting point is 02:05:05 My dad's listening to it on one side of the house. My wife is listening to it on the other side. I got nowhere to go. Get away from it. Well, you know, what's funny is I make the same point around like the state department briefings, the white house briefings. It's just painful these days. I mean, even the people in the room, the way they engage with them, it's, it's the point is that if I take the time to really go through it, I'm going to have to take notes because I'm going to want to address it. And it's like, I ended up with like 45 pages of notes of like, you know, probably take me four hours to cover all the lies that were put out. But what I tend to do is look at the, you know, the, the different kind of highlights and what the reports, the parts people are highlighting from what they
Starting point is 02:05:39 thought was important. And then I, if it's important enough, I do tend to go back through it. But overall my, my impression of it it because i was looking at it more this morning it is different than i think people expected but i'm very right out of the gate i want your eyes to know that this year more than ever or this cycle i feel that there's more coordinated effort than i've seen in the past and i could just be my own personal kind of feeling about it but But I'm saying that because I tend to feel like we should be skeptical or questioning more than usual whether these things are like being highly coordinated. I just want to put that out there, my personal opinion.
Starting point is 02:06:13 They always are. Look at the way they got her in. I mean, no, she hasn't gotten a single point, a single vote is a point that a lot of people are trying to make out there. She's just installed, you know, as a candidate. She got less than 1% when she ran as a candidate four years ago the thing about that though i find interesting is i think a lot of this is about sort of doing the thing that's actually the reality like kind of making like
Starting point is 02:06:33 the point is that we already know the primaries are kind of an illusion like the dnc made that clear but let's not pretend it's only one side they don't really have to do what we want anyway so the fact that that didn't happen is sort of like, well, we like it doesn't. I mean, it should happen if it was actually being done properly, but it wasn't. So it's kind of like a, you know, that's where it's at now. I feel like you're trying to shove these things in your face. But to the point about the actual back and forth, it ended up to show where ultimately it seemed that Kamala Harris, the weeks leading up to it was almost I don't know whether intentionally, but she was like she did very airhead comments like she was a lot to know what's going on all the time but then she came out in this debate and and seemed to put forward a very you know most of her responses seemed to be
Starting point is 02:07:12 pretty good to highlight the the claims of trump that weren't accurate so on but the same the point was that everyone's making the moderators seem to only apply that fact-checking their aspect of one side of the discussion, which is true. But they're all lying all the time, in my opinion. So it's sort of like a coordinated thing right there. But it did end up in a way to seem to highlight that Trump wasn't as strong in a lot of the things that they were pretending. You know, I just was clear. My opinion is they're both pretty much the same thing.
Starting point is 02:07:40 And they're both just as dishonest. The way this went out or ended up sort of. I don't know. It makes me wonder whether or not this might go a different way my opinion is i think trump is sort of the selection with all this but either way everyone seems to be on the same page that it didn't really change anything people who are voting already made their mind up the moment these people announce their candidacy and that's the real problem with our current political dynamic it's really it's all boiled down to that person's a little bit worse than what i might be forced into and that's so childish at
Starting point is 02:08:09 the end of the day and so that's kind of where i think it ended up it was theater it was entertainment and that's what i talked about yesterday in the run-up to this i i played a clip from thomas massey who's just had enough of this stuff he goes here we're going to do another theater i've been involved in this don't expect me to be an actor in this play again yet again you always come up with the last minute continuing resolutions so you can justify throwing everything into one giant basket called the omnibus bill and that's really kind of in a sense what happens with our political with our presidential race right I got an omnibus
Starting point is 02:08:45 candidate over here and I've got another omnibus candidate over there. And both of them, it's like, if you went to the grocery store to buy groceries and say, sorry, you can't do any shopping yourself. You can't make your own choices. You can pick, we've prepared two baskets for you. This is what's in basket A. This is what's in basket B. Which one of those two baskets do you want? And oh, by the way, you're going to have to eat everything that you take home. You know, and it's like, well, wait a minute. But that's what elections are. It isn't like an a la carte.
Starting point is 02:09:11 I want this or this or this. And the government increasingly, it's now become orthodoxy of both parties that the government should do everything. thing uh you know when when trump they they hectored him over uh medicare for all or whatever and what he was going to do about uh obamacare and he says well i you know i i have a plan i've got a concept of a plan and all the rest but he never questioned the issue of whether or not the government should be involved in our health care see and that used to it it was only when Hillary Clinton, when the Clintons got in, that was what, 30, 31, 32 years ago? That was when they first started saying, well, we want to have the government run health care in the United States. And that was a big issue. But now both parties have bought into that presumption that the government should run health care.
Starting point is 02:10:02 The question is, can Trump run health better than Lala can run healthcare? Right, right. And see, that's the same point, isn't it? It's the exact same point. It's all being distilled down to this binary dynamic where it's the reality, nobody, the vast majority does not have their needs met, if honestly ever, with that dynamic.
Starting point is 02:10:18 But the point to see is not just that it's always just two choices that aren't the reality. What we want is that they use the illusion of the back and forth to bring you into that the point you made about the health care is so important because i mean there's a valid conversation to be had about why there are people and i could take a further step back and acknowledge it's because of other government lacking in policies but that are in need in situations where they can't get what they might need and so on and but my i would i always lean on the side of less government liberty in the same way even though that would bring about problems the point is i can understand why there might be an argument about around medicare for all kind of
Starting point is 02:10:52 thing but that was my first point it's like i'm like well hold on we just saw what they would do through covet 19 like how can we even ignore how those things can you know it's obvious what they would do but to your point is that it comes to a position now where instead of acknowledging that maybe we shouldn't even have them involved, they drive you in a position where you're like, well, her stance on government controlling everything is a little bit worse than his stance on government controlling everything. And that amounts to the same thing. The basket thing is a great analogy. I'm going to have to use that. And the point is not just you have to eat it all.
Starting point is 02:11:21 You're not going to get half of what you want and half of it might not be the brand you like. But too bad. Those are your choices. It's crazy crazy or you get home and you find that the boxes are empty there's yeah there's not actually any cornflakes in this thing you know it's just an empty box wait a minute uh that's supposed to be border patrol uh there's nothing in there you know i voted for a border patrol or whatever you voted for yeah you go back and you and you look at it like you point out that you know how did we like government running our health care four years ago i hated that but of course trump thought it was a great deal he thought he saved lives and he goes back to this old nonsense about the 1917
Starting point is 02:11:54 flu epidemic again to defend what he did and and you know he didn't make any mistakes all the mistakes that were made in his administration were because of the germ game that they played on us it's just insane what they're doing but they do this over and over again and everybody you know keeps falling into this same thing i i so many of these um you know um a long time ago when i was much younger i would hang on these things and i would think about what uh what they're doing and and how it's trying to be you know how it's going to be perceived by the other side it was going to be to this guy's advantage i'm just so far beyond that i'm like thomas massey's like i've seen this before and i know that this is just fake uh and it's just to keep people distracted from doing the real
Starting point is 02:12:38 things that are going to make a difference in their life can i come around that point alone like i it's so funny i was just thinking about this yesterday it's difficult to engage like for what we're doing david we have to be open-minded enough to engage with the people that are you know maybe they just literally for the first time in their life decided to look into politics today you know and like we have to be open-minded enough to be like okay that we've gone through so much more in the scene these days and also that we could just be wrong you know the problem the reason I'm saying all this is that I'm at the point where you're saying right there
Starting point is 02:13:08 where I'm having a really hard time engaging honestly with people that are taking some of these things seriously. And so I have to temper myself. I'm like, I can't be rude. I can't, but it's really difficult because some of this stuff is so cartoonish. And so obviously against our interest that it's hard for me to engage with this as if I might want to get you know it could be the option it's just
Starting point is 02:13:29 difficult you know but it's we gotta be open-minded enough to consider there might be other options but like what thomas massey is saying is that it's it's not necessarily that that like i think what we're saying is that it's like a an obvious manipulation where both sides are dishonest i mean he's kind of saying that, but he's also really just saying that they just give up with the end. Like they want the same act, but at the end of the day, they kind of know that they're not going to get it. So it's more theater in that way.
Starting point is 02:13:52 But even if you take his point, just that being the only problem, it shows you that they are still lying to everyone that they're talking to, convincing them that they're going to get this. And the reality being, it's only going to come around to the, if ever at a point when it's not necessary or after the fact, when they think they need it for the election and all of that, ultimately,
Starting point is 02:14:10 which we can touch on, I think is a Trojan horse for the digital ID, which overlaps with the pack for the future. But the point is, however you look at it, we're all being played and people like Massey, whether he's playing a role that I'm just being skeptical here as the, the one that kind of the revelation of the method comes out and shows you.
Starting point is 02:14:24 So you gain the support. And, you know, that happens to whether whatever it is, it's the truth. And we are being played, you know. Yeah, there was an interesting article today on Brownstone. It's Jeffrey Tucker. This is what happened to libertarianism. He said this should have been in 2020 and on. It should have been their moment to shine.
Starting point is 02:14:42 And I was just so it's like yes yes he nailed it exactly right because you know when you look at what happened to the libertarian movement uh small l and big l the libertarian party there was only one candidate that i could find that was actually taking on the lockdown that was uh donald rainwater in indiana who was running for governor he's he's running again this time and he's he's got some really good economic issues that i had him on we talked about but um he was the only one who was pushing back against it and all of a sudden he's up like 15 16 points or something like that in the polls you know of course what we always see happen is that as you start get close to the election date everybody reverts back to their you know, and so they'll say they're going to vote for an independent or a
Starting point is 02:15:28 third party candidate, but then they go back, they fall back into, well, I'm going to vote for Republican or vote for Democrat. That type of thing always happens. But while he was doing that, I was so disappointed to see the national libertarian party was completely AWOL. And what Jeffrey Tucker talked about, i i didn't realize that um because i have not really followed um them since then you know it's like okay we're done i i used to be very active in the libertarian party and it's like that's that's it um after what happened in 2020 but this time around jeffrey tucker says the guy that's running uh for president in the libertarian party uh he was out
Starting point is 02:16:05 there telling people they needed to wear a mask it was a cheerleader for paxlovid and all the rest of this stuff and shaming people if they didn't follow this and really the presidential candidate was about as bad in 2020 as he is but here's a guy that you know now for a couple election cycles this has happened he says so what's happened to the intellectual movement we've really lost that idea uh of the constitution of individual liberty that's just really been flushed to the side for the most part i think it's the same as always you know and this it shouldn't be that we we this will it's always the way this has gone as far as i can tell it doesn't mean it can't change in the future so i always want to make sure we're you know thinking about this hopefully i do believe we can't change it which is why they're trying to suppress what we're talking about,
Starting point is 02:16:46 but it's like the green party or anything else, you know, it very rapidly gets co-opted by the same corporate entities and the same power structures that want to keep us falling into the left, right paradigm. And, you know, and to your point about people falling in line at the end, it's, we're seeing it more aggressively now than I think I've ever seen, which shows you just how vulnerable it is right now, but that it's, it got very quickly dialed in you know like usually we hear it every year most important election of our lifetime very quickly we saw it happen both kamala and trump are like gushing about how this everything will end if we don't vote one way or the other this time and the problem is that it's just it's people want to do what they believe in they want to you know
Starting point is 02:17:23 i want to vote libertarian i want to vote green party whatever it is but then they get convinced by the adult conversation you know the way that they're projecting it today that well all these people telling you to vote your third party your vote you believe in they don't understand how politics works an adult will recognize the lesser of evils i mean it's just it's always the same conversation that boil it it makes you ignore your own principles at the end of the day and it's always that way like maybe there's one election out of 10 you know cycles of elections where it seemed that way and i can get the logic of it but if it's literally every time and literally every time is the same narrative um and this is why i think they're so desperately trying to
Starting point is 02:17:59 pull new moves to change the situation because i think people are seeing this more than ever i really do and so i think go ahead i i think that that it's also people want to do something right they see this and that you know being passive and just letting this happen is not an answer so it's like what can i do and the national media and the establishment the government is very quick to come out and say here you can do this and they give them a fidget spinner right and so they go sit in the corner and they play with a fidget spinner think that they're doing something you know and when there's really things that they need to do they need to do they need to investigate what's happening at a state and local level and we had a situation here we had an excellent um senator who
Starting point is 02:18:38 had taken on the banking system and uh and he had taken on a lot of of the and actually also put in a thing about stopping out of state money. But even though he's Republican senator, he couldn't get it passed by the other Republicans. And so guess what? Out of state money in the banks came for him and took him out. And so you've got to get involved and you've got to get involved at the primary time, because if you don't do that, then they're going to put in their people and you're not really going to have a choice when it comes to the final election and they're now starting the big guys are now starting to pay attention to the state and to the local elections they don't want you paying attention to that they want you still doing the fidget spinner of the presidential election and everything rides on their presidential election i don't even think that even think that Congress is going to do anything to help us.
Starting point is 02:19:27 So I'm looking at it and saying, well, we need to figure out how we're going to nullify what's going on and do it at the state level and do it at the local level. Because that's worked for medical marijuana. It's worked for other things we've seen. Nullification work. And in the case of that, they stopped Jeff Sessions. That was his passion passion to stop it and yet because he didn't have any constitutional authority to do that they had states all over the place doing first medical marijuana then recreational marijuana i don't i don't i'm not a marijuana
Starting point is 02:19:57 advocate i'm a constitutional advocate and when people say if you start nullifying federal governments overreaching their unconstitutional acts then that's going to lead to civil war. That's not true. And you can always point to that and especially point to that for the left, because they're the ones who typically support marijuana reform and that type of thing. And you can point to it and say, that was done peacefully, wasn't it? And so we can follow that model for a variety of things. And I really think that's really about the only thing that we've got left in terms of politics. And I don't make politics my entire life, but I think
Starting point is 02:20:29 when you look at politics, that's the key thing at this point in time is state and local elections. Yeah, I agree. Well, to be clear on my stance on that in general, like Catherine Austin Fish just said in a recent interview, in her mind, the presidential election represents about 1% of what you can do to actually affect change. And I completely agree with that. If anything, quite frankly, I do believe my personal opinion is, is I don't think your vote speaking specifically about the presidential election, but quite frankly, I, I, I generally think this broadly, your vote does not translate to the outcome for, and there's a whole conversation to have in there about the nuance about that. But for two things, one hundred hundred percent agree if you're going to make an effect anywhere with a vote regardless of the circumstances local
Starting point is 02:21:08 is where it's at i completely agree with that and i wouldn't say that they're only now doing that i'd say that's always kind of been the case so they're very aware of how they can use even the smallest elections you know trickle up in that same way but i i would argue that that basically putting it this way that if you think your vote makes a difference, obviously I support that. But I only ask, regardless of my opinion, but I only ask that you do what you actually believe in, which I was saying before. Don't fall into what they convince you is what adults do, lesser of evils. Just stick with what you believe in and vote for who you actually believe. That's Trump or Kamala.
Starting point is 02:21:41 Then I support that choice, even though I disagree with it. But I think that more people are showing that, like all the comments I see online are all, well, they're both terrible, but I'm honest enough to acknowledge that I have to do this or she'll win or whatever. And so I'm like, well, you stick Jill Stein or whoever else who you actually think might make that difference and stick with that.
Starting point is 02:22:01 I just think that's super important. We're at a point where we can't, we got to stop compromising our principles because people in the adult conversation, they keep framing it that way, tell you otherwise, you know, that's, it's important today. Oh yeah. Yeah. Well, you know, when you look at it, as you point out, I think, you know, we've got the whole thing exactly upside down because as Musk has said, you know, he said, look at what Soros is doing. He's putting money behind local district attorneys because what he wants is chaos.
Starting point is 02:22:27 And that's what he's getting with these district attorneys. And so he's not focused that much on Washington. And so Musk is saying, you know, the smart money is going to be focused on things. The closer you are to yourself, the more effect that you're going to have. And, of course, that is true even getting out of the political sphere and focusing on your family, focusing on your life, making preparation about your life. We don't want to ignore the politics, but we want to keep an eye on it so we know what we need to kind of defend against.
Starting point is 02:22:56 And then, you know, make some effort to try to nudge things in a particular way to the extent that we have the capacity to, but recognize realistically that you're not going to have a whole lot of say about that, but you do have a lot of say as to whether or not you're going to prepare, whether you're going to train, whether you're going to make alliances in the local area, that type of thing, that you do have some ability to do something about. I think that's really important. But it's kind of amazing to me how they get caught up in these petty side issues so they don't have to talk
Starting point is 02:23:25 about the fundamental thing and of course they talk about gun control trump can't really say much about it because he did uh set a precedent for doing gun control by executive order it's really right really crazy kind of tight it's the interesting thing when you look at them more than i've ever seen and maybe by design i don know. Their narratives are shockingly aligned right now. Like, it's really strange. Like, there's the typical wedge issues where we know they disagree. But at the end of the day,
Starting point is 02:23:51 like, I think Jill Stein's one put out this compilation of their different rallies that were basically around the same time where they were, you know, pro-Israel, go against Iran, war for forward,
Starting point is 02:24:01 biometric surveillance wall, like all these different points. And they're all kind of cheering how my guy's doing this. They're not. And they're both like, yay, pro-America. war for forward biometric surveillance wall like all these different points and it's like it's and they're all kind of cheering how my guy's doing this they're not and they're both like yay yo pro-america you know it's really an alarming thing where they're framing themselves as like the counterbalance and even even in the debate she Israel won't be here tomorrow if she wins and she's like that's not true I've supported my whole life and I'll support their war it's like if they're debating about who supports Israel more.
Starting point is 02:24:25 I don't know why the people, I mean, I think most people see it, quite frankly. I think the only people driving this machine forward are the ones like we talked about that are team support politics. They've chosen already. It doesn't really matter what they have to say. Yeah. Oh, I agree. Yeah. Even on the things that she's flip-flopped on, right?
Starting point is 02:24:40 Nobody holds her feet to the fire, fracking, all the rest of the stuff. Oh, yeah. Because what she does is she does a focus group, which is the same thing that all these politicians do. The Republicans for years knew that everybody wants to push back against. They don't like Obamacare. They don't like the open border. So I'll talk about Obamacare and open borders and I won't do anything about it. And of course, that's she can play that game as well. You know, I can do I can support fracking as a candidate and then, you know, go the other direction when I become president.
Starting point is 02:25:05 So they're just whatever they know that you want to hear. They have focus groups and they just have positions and they can change their positions just as easily as shifting in a chair. Let's talk a little bit about what's coming up in terms of the UN pact for the future, because you're going to have reporters on site covering that as that's going through in about 11 days right yeah yeah it's it's basically now and so derek will be on site and he'll be doing stuff for t-lab live on our show as well but i believe he'll also be putting stuff on conscious resistance so make sure you check both out the the interesting thing about this that i find so alarming is that it's getting little attention and i find the this so what we're talking about is the the summit of the future and then within it they're talking about the pact for the future and that's the real alarming part for me because it's it seems to have
Starting point is 02:25:53 all of the same possible mechanisms that like during the covid19 discussion we all were and it hasn't gone away so we're clear about that but the the pandemic accord and all these different overlapping points were very clearly identified as a problem, right? Everybody was highlighting this. There were a lot of shows about it. So even still right now, we should be paying attention
Starting point is 02:26:12 to the way that goes forward. But Derek and I had a great interview about this where walking through the actual points, it seems like it has all of the same kind of mechanisms, at least potentially, but with far less oversight or far less, you know, like that truly matters anyway, but far less like acknowledge, veryy all these general concepts that could be used in
Starting point is 02:26:29 the same way and i'm i i opened i wondered out loud whether the pandemic accord which which has happened a lot through history was sort of like the the clumsy on its face we're going to control your life thing so we all push back on it and then we accept the lesser of it you know how they do that right that's what i think this might be that about the world economic forum you know it's always interesting because uh you know we would go to the the bilderberg group and we would talk about that and nobody was talking about the builder group but the world economic forum they wanted all kinds of press coverage they invited it and they put this cartoon Nazi out there. I mean, you know, Klaus Schwab is just like a bomb villain. It's straight out of central casting, and it's like, pay attention to this.
Starting point is 02:27:12 Watch this. And everybody's like, but where the real work is getting done is at Bilderberg, at the Club of Rome. They got one after the other where they're meeting, and nobody talked about these. So they basically set up a lightning rod of criticism which is the world economic forum and and i agree with you and and we also see that regardless of what their rationale is you know whether it's we're all going to die because of uh global cooling or then we're all going to die because of global warming or we're all going to die because of a pandemic whatever it is it's always the same solution we're going to have a population we're going to have central control we're all going to die because of a pandemic whatever it is it's always the same solution we're going to have depopulation we're going to have central control we're going to have
Starting point is 02:27:48 tracking of everybody and so they come up with these different mcguffins i call them to get people afraid but it's always the same solution whether it's a pandemic or it's climate change or freezing or heat or whatever it's always the same solution and so that's really what this is about this is about you know creating the structures to uh to govern us and i think the thing that is is very concerning about it uh and this was brought up um by expose news out of the uk that said well where is the discussion about this in the political sphere in the uk where are our representatives on this we're you know do we have a say in this and and you know why is this going well the same thing happened with the paris climate accord and uh they always run this stuff through they jam it through without getting people involved and i think that's the the really
Starting point is 02:28:33 concerning thing that we really need to pay attention to it absolutely well they the a very common tactic today if not like the only thing they seem to do anymore is use the justification like the same it's a climate change model right we're all going to die it's it's our fault we have to do this we can't really wait for democracy because we're all going to die it's like the same even though we all know that democracy the mob rule like the point is that they ultimately use the act the idea that we've destroyed this and typically pointing at the other party that's usually how that goes right the whole scarecrow thing and so they get us in the idea that we have to rush through this and so on, and then not dive into the reality and the facts and so on.
Starting point is 02:29:09 And I think that the two main things around what this all is obviously tied to is just general world governance. I think that's what all of these main points are about, about driving us to a point to where, and obviously technocratic technocracy overlap, where we're not talking about necessarily the old classic politician like i i mean that may even be what claude schwab was supposed to kind of like taint us against but more so like the engineers and the
Starting point is 02:29:33 scientists you know and so on like let them decide because we don't know enough that's the idea behind that and really it ends up just being elitist oligarchs in the world that decide these things for everybody and so that's what this is about is setting up this framework to make it look like, no, we're not going to have some world government. We're going to have a mechanism in place that should there be an event, which is really what this is around a world event that suddenly justifies that
Starting point is 02:29:54 we need coordinated action. That may well be what the COVID-19 illusion amongst a lot of other technological experimentation and science, you know, memory platform stuff may have been one of the main points setting us up to go, look, that's how we failed because we didn't have this in place kind of an idea. And so now this is about setting up this framework and then triggering what
Starting point is 02:30:13 they're, they talk about in this discussion, a planetary emergency, or at least acknowledging, claiming, pretending one, whatever to drive these things into place and then never relinquishing that power. This is the Patriot act that never went away. It's the same stuff we've always seen. And then the other part of it, and there's more than just these two main parts, but me relinquish in that power this is the patriot act that never went away it's the same stuff we've always seen and then the other part of it and there's more than just these two main parts but me to my in my mind these are the central parts and then the digital framework because that right in this main discussion they keep highlighting the global digital compact so this is exactly what i'm worried about now to go back to the point we said before
Starting point is 02:30:41 the save act thomas massey's point all these different it's right now and that back to the point we said before, the SAVE Act, Thomas Massey's point, all these different, it's right now, to his point where he says they don't even really want it, I think it's really just about, I think they all want it. It's a Trojan horse for digital ID using the real ID compliant identification combined with Biden's mobile driver's license push. Once that comes into play, that removes the other options for paper stuff because be digital, making it digital for all of your identification concepts. And then you go back to the actual save back. And the only thing you have are real compliant IDs and that's digital identification. So that's driving us there. So when we get to a place
Starting point is 02:31:14 where they're having a digital compact for the world, all that means is the same point, but on a global scale. And as we've all highlighted yourself, Catherine, I mean, it's this, I don't see how we come back from that. That once we get past that step, the censorship will become insurmountable. I mean, I don't want to say it's not possible, but let's just say it is, if we recognize right now that we're under
Starting point is 02:31:33 some massive control, the insurmountable kind of effort that they, the average person starting a new show has no chance today with the level of censorship, right? 40 times worse once they have a situation where it's not even accountable if it is even right now the digital control that boxing you out from websites or domains like just how about just not even being able to access the internet if your social credit score is too low we've all talked about this stuff oh yeah that's what i think this is absolutely about yeah yeah as a matter of fact you know microsoft's been working on the con the coalition for content providence and authentication uh ccpa i call I call it the Chinese Communist Party of America, where they can mark you.
Starting point is 02:32:08 They can use, and the partnership is with Intel and other processors as well as Adobe. So they've got the hardware and the software that's going to mark you, and then they've got their mainstream media that's going to decide whether you are somebody that should be allowed to talk or whatever, and you won't be able to even upload stuff. That's going to decide whether you are somebody that should be allowed to talk or whatever, and you won't be able to even upload stuff. You know, that's going to be the interesting thing. And I'm kind of in that situation right now with Spotify.
Starting point is 02:32:31 Spotify has taken the lead in podcasts to ban me. They banned me within a couple of months of me starting my independent show. I'm banning there as well, by the way, a while ago. And they've talked about giving their, you know, leasing or selling or whatever their technology to other podcasts so they can do the same thing. It's just a matter of time before that happens. And so they'll stop it on the upload side of things. But it is a completely comprehensive thing to shut down anybody that disagrees with them. It's just astounding to me to see how everyone is is pushing censorship and you notice there wasn't a single question about
Starting point is 02:33:09 that and the exactly right the uh so-called press of abc doesn't care at all about censorship and neither the candidates brought it up either so you know it was just fine for it to happen during trump he was it was only a problem when he was kicked off, just like the police state and the SWAT teams attacking people's homes and throwing flash grenades into the baby's cribs and stuff. That's only a problem if it might have happened in Mar-a-Lago, if it had the potential to happen,
Starting point is 02:33:38 even though it didn't happen in Mar-a-Lago. But now it's a problem because they could have potentially done something like they're doing to everybody all the time in our homes. It's that kind of voyeurism that is really kind of occupying the average American where they don't care about what happens to them or their neighbor. They only care about what happens to the guy that they've identified as a person who's going to save them. That's the only thing they care about. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:34:06 Well, it's kind of the othering, right? It's like the dehumanization. It's the same thing we're seeing in our country right now with left and right. It's been that way for a long time, but it's,
Starting point is 02:34:13 it's the idea that it only matters if it challenges our worldview or our beliefs or what we want to happen. It's just hypocrisy, plain and simple, you know? And it's, if you think for one second that the censorship digital ID stuff is only coming from one side, it's not, it it's it's both sides and different flavors it always
Starting point is 02:34:28 is coke and pepsi it's the same thing every single time you know and so right now they're both clearly pushing digital biometric wall digital identification from different angles it's it's very very clear and so i and they may not even know that themselves i'm not convinced that in these individuals necessarily are in the know about these larger plans. Frankly, I find it more believable that these are useful idiots, all of them, Congress. You know what I mean? But I mean, I'm sure at some level there's inside to it. But that's the thing I really hoping Americans can come to terms with right now is that this is very clearly something that is bigger, even than our election system, our political dynamic. There's something that is global. And if we can see it like that in other contexts the covet 19 illusion you know globalism in general we have to ask or
Starting point is 02:35:10 the israel conversation i mean americans more than i've ever seen in my life are like openly discussing israel's aggressive control over congress yeah and that's important it's not about jews or israelis in particular it's about zionism but that's important And that right there is a huge part of globalism because of a lot of the right narratives. They seem to try to decouple Israel from the obvious globalist direction that they have as well. The important things to see that it's one in the same. And it's all about keeping you compartmentalized in all of this. And by doing so, we're sleepwalking into the very control structure that will allow this to continue. Yeah, and it's about it's just OK.
Starting point is 02:35:46 Whoever wants to buy influence, it can be a foreign individual. It can be a foreign government. But it's all right. You know, she gets a half a billion dollars in one month and three hundred and fifty million the next. That's fine. That's good news. That's good news. The media likes that because she's going to spend that money with them.
Starting point is 02:36:00 And so they're not they don't have a problem with it. And, you know, Trump is the same thing. Yeah. The Israel used to own Congress and rightfully so. He said, right. Is that right? You know, but when you look at it, as you're pointing out, they have they have their ways that they can channel both the left and the right to their common purpose. Their common purpose of having digital ID and total surveillance for the right.
Starting point is 02:36:22 They're buying into it because they're concerned. They want to verify because they don't want their jobs being taken by foreign people coming in so let me have set up a system where i've got to get permission from washington to work uh let's take a look at um you know what is going on the border well let's put all kind of technology that we can down there at the border to keep people from getting into the country or getting out at the same time right right and then let's also look at you know what is going on what we don't want the kids looking at pornography so let's have an id right for people to be able to use the internet uh you know it's just you you
Starting point is 02:36:54 can find an issue as and i think what do you think is the common thing here i look at it as people every problem that comes up they believe that the government should be the solution to it. And more importantly, that the federal government should be the one to solve it. And that's what makes everybody so vulnerable to, well, okay, we've got a problem with the border. We've got a problem with people taking my jobs. Or we've got a problem with the kids watching pornography. What's the government going to do about it? And that's what these debates are really feeding.
Starting point is 02:37:24 What are you going to do about this problem in my life? You know, I've got a next-door neighbor that I don't like. What are you going to do about it? And that's what these debates are really feeding. What are you going to do about this problem in my life? You know, I've got a next door neighbor that I don't like. What are you going to do about it? You know? Well, exactly. Well, that's the thing is that that's what we were just discussing. Is it kind of, you know, that's what the point about how the majority in any election cycle are people that don't partake. And then the people that do usually 40% of them are independent you know it shows you that it's all about trying to drive you in to pretending that the left and right are the only things that matter in this conversation and then
Starting point is 02:37:50 making forcing you to have to pick between the lesser of evils and that there's no other option there right there are people in this conversation that are talking about less government or burning it down entirely but they're never going to be allowed to be on that stage and so this a lot of the americans that engage in this are of the mind that it's either not there or that it's not prominent enough to be able to be considered because, well, they're not showing it to me. But that's obviously a false assumption because clearly there are a lot more people that want this change. The idea that only government can make a difference in your life, I don't believe that most Americans even remotely believe that.
Starting point is 02:38:27 But sadly enough, we get forced into it again. Back to the point. That's why I think all this is happening. They're cranking up the heat and the violence because that's what drives people back into their comfort zone. Because right now there are people asking questions they don't like. And so when the war and people's lives are made more uncomfortable, so you become emotional, become vulnerable, and then you fall back into line. I genuinely think that. but whether we should want government
Starting point is 02:38:47 our lives i mean i don't i think that it's a kind of quintessentially american to have less government our lives and now here's trump and kamala and they're both representing basic you know i mean the funny thing is about the whole communism verse that they're both authoritarian capitalists all the way through and it's very clear that they have differences but they are not the as different as they try to make them out to be like you said more government more control in your life period yeah that's right yeah yeah the old paradigms of um you know used to be well uh the government you know the republicans are going to give you freedom in economic sphere and the and the democrats and liberals are going to give you uh freedom and your civil liberties and that kind of stuff that That's all gone away. They're all,
Starting point is 02:39:27 and this idea that, well, there's government and then there's business and they represent different interests. No, they've merged. And so there's this merger of the parties. There's this merger of government and business and all the rest of the stuff. So these, these paradigms that have been out there, that even people are in the third party aspect. And again, Jeffrey Tucker touches on this when he talks about it. He says, well, you know, we have the combination of these two things. I've been saying it for the longest time.
Starting point is 02:39:52 You know, the liberals will say, well, business can do nothing right. Government can do nothing wrong. The conservatives or libertarians will go the other direction. The problem that they don't see is that they've merged. You've got a fashion system here where you've got corporations and government have merged for their common interest, and neither of these paradigms are capable of addressing that, because that's not even a part of their fundamental, they don't want to, it's not a part of their fundamental assumptions, and so they can't deal with this problem because their assumptions
Starting point is 02:40:19 don't fit reality. Right, well it's the same old, it's a classic saying, right, you can't solve a, first step in solving any problem is simply acknowledging you have one. And they all seem to be pointing in any direction other than the obvious problem. And whether they see the problem or not,
Starting point is 02:40:32 it's not being addressed because nobody wants to talk about it. And I think it's more so about the fact that, you know, these are NASCARs, right? You just can't see all the patches and advertisements all over them. Like they're being funded
Starting point is 02:40:42 and lobbied. And I mean, you know, it's very, very obvious and we all joke about it but yet weirdly when it comes to these important moments those were told anyway the the larger conversation and this is usually people that have their entire wealth or identity invested in the system try to convince everybody that might be somewhat aware of it that it's not what you think you got to vote otherwise nothing matters and we go through this for that's really the point of the four-year cycle it's like right when people start going maybe there is something oh wow we get pulled right back into it you know it's like every single time you know yeah yeah that's why you know i i look at this and i just you know i want to try
Starting point is 02:41:17 to get people focused on on other things and uh you know rather than than these things that are just uh kind of a sisyphus task you keep this rock up, the same rock up the hill over and over again, and nothing ever changes. Yeah, it is crazy. Well, what else is on your mind? They're at Last American Vagabond. covered a really terrifying story that i think my impression of where this goes the thing that really worries me is that i i see through it sort of like the outlines of maybe like a new form of governance like we've all talked about technocracy it's not a new concept it goes back to the early 70s right the idea clearly whether with good intentions or not it was it represents today
Starting point is 02:42:02 in my opinion the opposite of what it pretends to be right this is just a very clear technocratic elitist mindset about you know overlapping with with eugenics and all sorts of terrifying things in my opinion and the point is that i see technocracy sort of showing itself in ways that i think circumvent government is the best way maybe to put it and so in honduras pierre teal backs a company that essentially has tried to start or has started what they are pretending is some libertarian utopia and not even remotely what it is in my opinion at all based on every possible metric to sum it up rather quickly there's a lot in this story but in 2009 in honduras the u.s government backed a coup which is pretty common knowledge these days. We do that all the time, don't we?
Starting point is 02:42:46 Oh, yeah. It's Tuesday, right? It's probably happening again. We're overthrowing this week, yeah. Yeah. But so essentially, it caused the chaos that we might expect, which is usually the objective to a degree, so they can take advantage of all sorts of things. things now what's important to recognize is a series of leaders went after that which caused you know it's right even even to this day it's one of the most dangerous places on the planet as i understand it the point is at once that happened it created the chaos that they allowed
Starting point is 02:43:14 to happen because these despots are doing what they want taking what they want and they use that chaos to justify the need for sustainable you know special development zones is what we've heard them call before it comes from sustainable development zones which is un 2030 point right now in this country they call them z's or zed zede which is just another name for the same exact thing so it's important to recognize these comes from a un 2030 objective this is peter teal's back company these backing vance that's trump's cabinet it's important to see how these things are all connected but the point is that they backed this pretend libertarian utopia city in a location. Well, first they, sorry, I'm jumping. They created the Z, the Z zones under the guise that they were going to help people because of the chaos. They tried, they started
Starting point is 02:43:56 to set this up. They got pushed back from the constitutional court because nobody wanted it. So what'd they do? The legal thing. They kicked people off the judge positions and they put people in place that would vote the way they wanted them to, you know, otherwise completely illegitimate, right? And they got this passed. So then once they got it passed, they then started to set up these fake libertarian cities.
Starting point is 02:44:14 Now, it hasn't really accomplished anything. People are worried. It's already starting to absorb other parts of the area. It's a very weird dynamic. Now, jumping forward to right now, a presidential cabinet ran entirely on the idea that we're going to get rid of these zds the people in honduras are wildly outspoken about how they don't want this and essentially it's important to understand that
Starting point is 02:44:33 this zone this area they built one of them's called prospera i think it's roton the island they have their own laws they have their own tax system they have their own police force like there's no sovereignty there's honduras they've lost that area is no longer theirs it's wild so it's like this new world right exactly this new government got put in place right and then they removed the law because they immediately voted for it nobody wanted it so now it's technically illegal even though they're already starting to build another one which shows you don't care about the laws now what the important part is they're now suing Honduras for $11 billion. The GDP of Honduras is $35, $36 billion.
Starting point is 02:45:08 New York Times thinks they're going to win this. So here's my point in all this. Right now, they're going forward anyway. The current government is telling us, on September 5th, they openly said they're doing it again. They're marshalling their forces. The U.S. government's going to back another coup, which I think they know, which is why they're not caring about this. But here's what's important. What happens?
Starting point is 02:45:26 Like right now, how does that make sense? Like what happened? Who has control over this area? They're the ones in control. So what does the government mean in that context? What happens if they win, which it seems they might? Do they take all the assets of Honduras because of a bankruptcy? And what does that mean for the people?
Starting point is 02:45:40 The government doesn't go away. But arguably, a technocratic steel-backed entity owns everything so they're technically in control of everything even though the government's there so my long point essentially pointing out there's lots of these things happening in the world is this an example of technocracy these elitist oligarchs sort of taking control of land and land grabs without even going through some illusion of a democratic process it's kind of terrifying and i think an important part is to see how this ties back to teal and you know
Starting point is 02:46:09 palantir israel all these different overlaps but just that concept alone worries me about where this goes and how they're sort of like reimagining the way that we should live under technocrats as opposed to elected governments even though that's not even what's happening anymore it's interesting yeah you know when you look at palantir that'sir, his connection to Palantir is one of the things that really concerns me about Peter Thiel as well. He's not what he appears to be. Musk is not what he appears to be. And, you know, I guess he wants to have like another Rhodesia
Starting point is 02:46:36 or something where he's the, we call it Thiel-esia or something. Peter Thiel villager, I don't know what he would call it. But, you know, that's the whole thing. And Musk Starlink, by the way i'm sorry i forgot that musk starlink is being allowed to be used for these for these areas but as i can tell not for all of honduras so i think that's interesting i think that relates to the military purpose that might be coming go ahead sorry i just want to include that's interesting yeah so so what is your take on it i mean are they just trying to set up an example here is this going to be like the home base for them to flee to if they have to because in the past i talked to hugo daguerres
Starting point is 02:47:10 uh he wrote about artificial intelligence he worked in the field and he was a true believer in it he thought they were going to create a godlike intelligence and so forth and he said but before that he said when people realize what they're doing in other words the technocrats he said what i think will happen is people will come for them. And to defend themselves, he said, they'll most likely set up some kind of high frontier type of thing. Gerard K. O'Neill talked about in the 1970s. You had Jeff Bezos referenced it a lot. And you saw it in Elysium, you know, where they got these toroid-shaped things.
Starting point is 02:47:45 And so he said, I think that they'll set these things up and flee to that and then, you know, conduct a war against us with superior technology. He called them Cosmos and the people that would be left on Earth, he called them Terrans. And he said, you know, I think that they'll flee to their space bases and then, you know, as a refuge, maybe they're going to just go to honduras you know i'd say it's funny as i take as much as you're there's there's jokes we made about these people but i tell you there's something about that that i take very seriously and that's a terrifying thing like
Starting point is 02:48:18 even the space aspect i've been saying this for so long and i don't know why it doesn't get i mean it's probably why it doesn't get much attention but how do we don't know what the hell is going on up there in space like there's been a long period where they have the ability to do all sorts of things i mean even like how do we know that they haven't even made contracts with other governments to be like look let's just black this out people don't need to know like colonies space wars i mean i'm not saying i'm thinking that's happening i'm just saying the fact that we don't know is pretty crazy to me it's a wild west up there for governments and technocrats. You make a great point in regard to Honduras and all the, by the way, I love your point
Starting point is 02:48:51 there. It's a terrifying reality, but we have to realize that the point he's making is these people are wildly powerful, influential, in some cases overlap with government. And they could literally be creating a situation where they're driving into reality their worldview, which is technocracy. That's kind of terrifying. But yeah, the Honduras point, it could be, right? So my take on what it ultimately comes down to, it could be sort of a test bed, you know, like a litmus test to see how people respond. The main point to make is that the people of Honduras, that's, again, the new administration was running on the removal of those but the idea that they violated their sovereignty i mean they're even trying to argue that they violated the
Starting point is 02:49:28 original contract even the contract with the illegal governments both by the way the presidents that existed during those illegal contracts are both indicted by the current government and even the u even the u.s government acknowledges that both as criminals so it just shows you how ridiculous this all is but the point is that i think it's really about testing to see how we respond to what people will do to see how far they can take it but i mean it could be more than that you know this could be the beginning of something i just think it's important to highlight that if it's that easy uh you know i mean it shouldn't be easy but military power a quick coup overlapping with a corporation swinging in making a contract with the government the illegal government put in
Starting point is 02:50:04 place and then just saying well too late you can't take this back even though the laws have changed even though it turns out you didn't even meet the contract to begin with and now my point is that like i said before they just posted something on twitter where they're saying they're building another city on the island that prospera is on now but that law has been removed for a long time now so my point is i'm convinced the people behind this that's the theal company why would they do that if the law doesn't back it i think that they're they think there's something in their mind that tells them they're going to be
Starting point is 02:50:34 able to get away with that that's why my feeling is that's why she's saying that about the upcoming coup that they think there's going to be a power swing and that they won't have to worry about it that's completely my opinion but so that's all about where this goes and the shifting of power and whether government is a thing of the past you know it's just a thought but it does worry me yeah it is interesting when you go back and look at it i've talked many times about how peter teal's uh grandfather uh you know was fully on board with technocracy back in the 1930s as hg wells was doing things to come in shape of things to come that They did the movie. They had the book.
Starting point is 02:51:06 And he actually tried to enact that. And Canada had to flee to South Africa. So there's a certain, you know, this kind of resembles this in a lot of different ways. The idea that, you know, they're going to kind of hedge their bets to make sure, even though they're making so much money out of government. And that's the key thing. You know, Elon Musk became the king of crony capitalism. He made so much money and became so wealthy,
Starting point is 02:51:32 and he's going to make even more doing the fact that he's able to get the satellites up and Boeing. You know, NASA said, well, we want to have another company that's doing it. Boeing can't get their act together. He's able to do that. So he's on track to become the world's first trillionaire by maybe 2027. So it's just a vertical takeoff in terms of the power that these people have. But Thiel and the powers and the companies that he's put in there, Palantir, that's unbelievably powerful. And so they put themselves into key technologies that
Starting point is 02:52:06 the government is relying on and a big part of that is going to be artificial intelligence because in my opinion that's the killer app of ai it isn't that they're going to have autonomous robots that are going to come around and try to you know kill us individually they want to use the artificial intelligence as a way to propagandize and to surveil us. I think that's the killer app. I think that's what they've been working on for a long time. And so they're insinuating, inserting themselves into all of these key choke points, essentially through technology.
Starting point is 02:52:36 Yeah. A hundred percent. And one of the important overlaps that we shouldn't miss with, with all of it, with Musk and the star link. And, you know, is the idea that what this is overlapping with the conversation we just had by the way with the pack of the future and the the digital i mean
Starting point is 02:52:49 this might very well be the beginnings of what this is meant to kind of the need that they're building that needs the the the role to fill and like for example the 15 minute city the smart city dynamic i mean it may not be exactly the same, but it's the same general idea that we're simply in an area that is run by technocrats or run by people that are arguing they know better about your life. You know, and so it's a different flavor of the same kind of thing. And so what really should be worrying for the people that think they're on the side of the party that is against this. Right. It's largely people tied right back to the administration that's running on Trump's side who are building this thing, you know, and that overlaps. And there's all, there's so many overlaps to these people with the actual WHO overlap and the world economic forum. I just, if people are just kind of being willfully blind about it, you know, but your point is right.
Starting point is 02:53:36 I think it's all about building into a position where artificial intelligence, digital identification, these things are not just necessary, but paramount to the way that the city functions all of course always framed under the guise that it's better for you and it'll make your life more convenient you know and you know maybe that's in some minds maybe that's what they're actually doing but it's like that for that to turn into a technocratic nightmare yeah you know and that's what we're all worried about is i want the positive if that's something that's genuine i mean i technically i actually don't i don't want any of this stuff mean, like, I'm open to the idea that things might be positive. But we need to realize that if you open that door, it's like a dual-use concept. It is going to be used against you eventually.
Starting point is 02:54:13 And I don't think we should take that step. Yeah. Oh, I agree. That's what's happened, really, to technology. But, you know, when we look at the technocracy versus Marxism versus, you know uh populism or whatever you take these different approaches and the dangerous things about all of them you know we're talking about fascism or populism or marxism or technocracy the thing that makes them dangerous is the element of authoritarianism and totalitarianism and they all have that in there as a strong aspect of what they're doing
Starting point is 02:54:46 and so uh they can all lapse into that commonality you know we're so used to thinking that marxism is completely opposite from fascism and it's not you know when you you look at the nolan chart you see that they're down there at the bottom because they're both authoritarian or totalitarian and the same thing can happen with technocracy it's just how they market it to us one of them might come in and say well we want to have a brotherhood of man that'd be marxism so you got to give all power to me the other people say well we got a different mcguffin we want to focus around our culture and our nationality so give all power to me they've all got it's just like the other things it's like well we need to depopulate the earth whatever it is they've always come back to the same thing they have different ways to sell
Starting point is 02:55:29 it to you and and the reason i mentioned this is because when you look at the dangerous tendencies that i see in the electorate is the idea that as i said before we got a problem it needs to be solved by the government and we need a savior well let's get a billionaire who says he's on our side. And I see that with Elon Musk. I see that so much with the people, the MAGA people who are focused on Trump. Look at this guy is rich. He's powerful.
Starting point is 02:55:54 He knows he's successful because obviously because he's got a lot of money. And so if he's on our side and I think he's on our side because look, he's given us free speech on Twitter and I'm not seeing any free speech on Twitter. But they imagine that, and you've got all these people who are cheering Musk and think that he's on their side, and he's going to be the guy who's going to save us after Trump. And that's such a dangerous thing. And they're playing these people, I think. Here's the thought.
Starting point is 02:56:20 Oh, 100%. I completely agree with everything you just said. One thing that's jumped into my head, based on what we were just discussing, right? So if we're thinking this out, let's just say for sake of conversation, the long play is to get Americans comfortable with the idea of technocratic leadership, right? And one thing Matt Erritt and I have talked about over the years is he's under the mindset that this is a very long play. This goes back to power structures, blood bloodlines to go back a long way
Starting point is 02:56:46 in the mindset being that at one point in time there was a shift from kind of a monarch mindset into something where at least we pretend we have the power to elect who we want and the argument is that that was something that was a veil pulled over eyes where they convinced us we were choosing but we really weren't and now we're at a point where that veil is being removed because they've decided well we're going to step back out of the shadows for whatever reason you know and so it's possible to consider the fact that this whole thing is about manufacturing elon musk into some kind of position he's already accepted a position but whether it actually happens that's still up in the air but he said it he's accepted that's the department of government energy which just happens to be doge which i find ridiculous you know the coins always are they serious are they
Starting point is 02:57:28 i don't know but he said it publicly trump stood up in an interview and said i hope he's accepted it and i think it's good so my point is what happens if elon musk takes a pretty prominent role right and then runs for president next time right i mean there you go just boom just like that and all of a sudden you've got a literal technocrat oligarch elitist military contractor who's the good guy saving free speech i mean that's a pretty terrifying step right there i mean if that happened my opinion would be that would be that's likely coordinated yeah oh i agree i agree it is a crazy time that we're living in and things are accelerating uh very very rapidly and um you know i think it is the again we go through i believe these cycles of history like they talked about uh strauss and
Starting point is 02:58:11 how talked about in the fourth turning i think we're at the tail end of that and i think this next administration whoever it is is really going to usher us in through this whole thing because it's going to take us right up to the end of it. They want to have their new society in 2030. That means that they've got to tear everything down and start rebuilding something else to get it there and in place by 2030. And so that means whoever this next president that they select that they're going to use to do this thing. So people need to be aware of the overall landscape, understand how the dangers are shaping up, and see what these threats are so that you can prepare yourself.
Starting point is 02:58:51 That's why I keep telling people, focus on your own life and don't live vicariously through these people who really don't care at all about you. I mean, we can just see that with January the 6th. They just use people and cast them aside for their own benefit. It's just absolutely amazing. Well, it's always great talking to you, Ryan. And tell us a little bit more about The Last American Vagabond. And is it spelled out, lastamericanvagabond.com? Is that the website?
Starting point is 02:59:19 Yeah, thelastamericanvagabond.com. Okay, good. And we also have our sub stack at TLA Vagabond. I think it's at substack.com. Okay. And we also have our, our sub stack at TLA vagabond. I think it's at sub stack.com. I think that's what it is. Um, you know, but just,
Starting point is 02:59:29 it's all on the website. If you go to the last American vagabond.com, you'll find links to everything. As I say, in this, about every interview, don't, don't let the platforms be the conduit between you and our information,
Starting point is 02:59:38 right? Go directly to davidknight.com, go directly to the website, check out our content, you know, as opposed to the platforms. Cause I think there's control happening through those as well. But yeah, the platform, I think, is right now, by the way, we're under some pretty heavy attack, as always, I think.
Starting point is 02:59:53 But the website, I had a really amazing interview with Catherine Austin Fitz that was focused aggressively about all this stuff around the two-party illusion, the election, around digital ideas. She's always great. Oh, outstanding. And she had a really crazy conversation about, important and crazy around neurological weapons. I'm sure you've talked about it. I've talked about the neuroscience. But saying that she has experienced it, been there, seen it,
Starting point is 03:00:18 and her argument is that's part of what's happening in this election. Anyway. People need to check that out at The Last American Vagabond. Sorry. An excellent interview with Katherine Austin Fitz. Thank you so much, Ryan Christian. Thank you all for joining us today.
Starting point is 03:00:31 Have a good day. Let me tell you, the David Knight Show you can listen to with your ears. You can even watch it by using your eyes in fact if you can hear me that means you're listening to the David Knight show right now yeah good job and And you want to know something else? You can find all the links to everywhere to watch or listen to the show at the David night show dot com.
