Vance warns that AI is being weaponized to manipulate history, surveil, and censor speech by foreign adversaries.However, tech moguls like Peter... Thiel, Elon Musk, and others are already using it for surveillance and manipulation through companies like PalantirRecall that Palantir was being used for tracking of citizens during the Trump “Covid pandemic” and its being used to track people who criticize the Israeli government, speech that Trump & others in the GOP wish to criminalize46:16 to 1:00:42 Why and How Christian Beliefs are Foundational to Political LibertyThe relationship between spiritual and political realms ("Athens and Jerusalem"), emphasizing that modern society's reliance on science and technology as replacements for God leads to a new form of pagan worship, not true liberationFreedom is not the absence of restraint but the pursuit of virtueLiberty in America was fundamentally tied to its Christian roots, not in theocracy but in a societal ethos shaped by Christian principles1:00:42  to 1:08:33 LIVE listener comments 1:08:33 to 1:10:15 The Strange Goat Statue at Mar-a-LagoSymbolism that highlights the complex relationship between politics, idolatry, and power in contemporary America 1:10:15 to 1:28:00 Greenland, the New Frontier of Resource Control for Trump’s Technate Forget CO2, Methane — those gasses are just a smokescreen.  The Technate wants ENERGY as CURRENCY.  Here’s how Greenland, Panama, and Canada play into this technocratic dystopia 1:28:00 to 1:43:17 NOT Babylon Bee: Bill to Rename Greenland, “Red, White and Blueland”Egos, names, and the useful idiots of MAGATrump throws out AP reporter because the organization refuses to use “Gulf of America” instead of Gulf of MexicoTrump proposes a “Garden of American Heroes”, 250 statues1:36:10 to LIVE listener comments 1:45:24 to 1:55:00 Thank you to donors and LIVE listener comments 1:55:00 to 2:02:30 Paris Agreement: A Collapsing House of Cards & Pledges          The Paris Agreement, once hailed as the savior of our planet, is now teetering on the brink of collapse, dubbed a "house of cards" by the skeptical voices from across the pond.

Starting point is 00:00:32 We all know what it feels like, but sometimes it doesn't come easy. I'm Garvey Bailey, the host of Happy Enough, a new podcast from The Globe and Mail about our pursuit of happiness. We know people want to live more fulfilling and positive lives. But how do we actually do that? Is there a happiness code to crack? From our relationship with technology to whether money can really buy you happiness,
Starting point is 00:00:59 we'll hear from both real people and experts to demystify this thing we're all searching for and hopefully find ways to be happy enough. You can find Happy Enough wherever you listen to podcasts. In a world of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. It's The David Knight Show. As the clock strikes 13, it's Wednesday, the 12th of February, year of our Lord, 2025. Well, we're going to take a look today at judicial supremacy, because this is what is going to determine whether there is going to be any change whatsoever. We see judges shutting down Trump's executive orders left and right. So where does the real authority lie?
Starting point is 00:02:24 That is the true constitutional crisis. Yeah, the MAGA people are laughing about the fact they say, well, it's a constitutional crisis. There's been a constitutional crisis for a very long time. This might be a good precedent if they push this through and establish and rebalance the balance between powers and the federal government. But we're also going to take a look at what happened with the meeting yesterday about Gaza with the Jordanian president. And what were the reactions afterwards from himself and from other people after this meeting? Is that going to go through? And we'll look at Doge. They are now talking about, well, we need to find out
Starting point is 00:03:03 how these bureaucrats who get hundreds of thousands of dollars wind up with portfolios worth millions. Would that be somebody like Fauci? Well, that's good, but it may be concerning about the beginning of artificial intelligence to audit us all. We'll be right back. Well, J.D. Vance is warned about the weaponization of AI, and it's something we all need to be very concerned about. Of course, he said this in a context of appearing before a European group and trying to convince them not to put restrictions around American technology. And so there were a lot of assurances there. Are these empty promises? He said, AI is being weaponized to rewrite history, to surveil, and to censor speech.
Starting point is 00:03:57 Seems to me like I've seen that happening not just in Europe, but in America as well. He's calling on the nations of the world to ensure that artificial intelligence has now become a tool for government-imposed censorship, encouraging the embrace of what he calls a new industrial revolution. Sounding similarly like Klaus Schwab. Of course, his masters are the ones who are running this whole thing. People like Peter Thiel and Elon Musk and all the rest of them, they're the ones who seek to install this AI surveillance and technocracy.
Starting point is 00:04:35 And of course, when we look at artificial intelligence, what does it do? It imitates, doesn't it? It's not creative. It doesn't have any original ideas. What it does is it imitates, doesn't it? It's not creative. It doesn't have any original ideas. What it does is it imitates. It surveils for the purpose of manipulation. It gives us propaganda. Bias is built into it.
Starting point is 00:04:54 It feeds us lies. And so we look at this, imitation, manipulation, lies. Does this sound like satanic technology? Yes, it is it absolutely is it has satanic values if it isn't built and operated by satan and who knows that it isn't because it's all being done by governments and by people who run the government who quite frankly if you look at what they do it looks like they have sold their soul to the devil uh as much if not more so than the music stars who openly say that yeah i made a pact with a devil whatever right the politicians would not say that but their actions say it very loudly vance addressed world leaders at the ai summit in paris stating
Starting point is 00:05:47 and we're going to talk about the other paris accord can anything good come from paris these jackabons we saw the olympics but of course the whole 15 minute city thing began in paris brainchild that marxist mayor there i think she's from spain or something hildalgo is her name and uh so you know this is an outsider who is imposing uh communism on them as if they needed any help to the french republic and the jacobins that were there but uh no 15 minute city that's what the yellow vests were all about. And then, of course, we had the Paris Climate Accord. Here is the Paris AI Summit.
Starting point is 00:06:39 Vance said that the U.S. feels, quote, very strongly that AI must remain free from ideological bias. Well, maybe you need to take a look at all the chat gpt and all the rest of these programs they spend a lot of money hiring people at essentially minimum wage to put bias into these things it's built in at an expense with humans he says it needs to be free from ideological bias and that american ai will not be co-opted into a tool for authoritarian censorship. First time I used ChatGPT, I've had a few questions about the pandemic, about vaccines, about climate. It's like, I'm not asking it any more questions. I don't care if it can design circuits. I don't need circuits designed.
Starting point is 00:07:20 I need the truth. I need the truth about these other things that are out there. So if it's going to lie to us about these fundamental things, I'm not interested in it. I can use it to make crazy pictures. I can certainly imagine strange things. Anyway, when we hear him talk about this, it's going to be free from ideological bias. It will not be used for authoritarian censorship, propaganda, or lies, any of that kind of stuff. These are just platitudes.
Starting point is 00:07:53 This is not the reality. Vance's masters, as I've said before, you know, Thiel, Musk, people like Alex Karp of Palantir, they use it for these other purposes. It is pure evil how they intend to use this stuff. Alex Karp, a Palantir. They use it for these other purposes. It is pure evil how they intend to use this stuff. The vice president voiced concerns about reports that some foreign governments, foreign governments, not the U.S., of course, are considering tightening the screws on U.S. tech companies with international footprints. And that's why he was talking about this.
Starting point is 00:08:25 And these foreign governments will be doing all this bad stuff. But it won't be done by America. Not America. Although he didn't mention China or its new AI entity, DeepSeek by name, Vance said, quote, foreign hostile adversaries, quote, unquote, have weaponized AI software to rewrite history, surveil users, and censor speech. It's only the foreigners who do that, of course, not us. He said, some authoritarian regimes have stolen and used AI to strengthen their military, intelligence, and surveillance capabilities, to capture foreign data, and to create propaganda
Starting point is 00:08:57 to undermine other nations' national security. Well, other than stealing it, stealing AI, those are all things that we've done. And it's all things that Sam Altman wants the government to do. And of course, it kind of rings hollow to talk about how somebody stole his AI program when the whole purpose of AI is to steal intellectual property from actual humans all over the place. Every bit of intellectual property. Your thoughts, whatever you say, not just things like movies and books and films. But it trains itself on that, reproduces it.
Starting point is 00:09:38 He says, this administration will block such efforts full stop. Well, the United States is certainly using AI to strengthen its military, isn't it? Using it to strengthen its intelligence and surveillance capabilities against us as well, not just against foreign actors, against us. And we'll talk about that with Palantir. The Trump administration will ensure that AI systems developed in America are free from ideological bias and never restrict our citizens' right to free speech. We can trust our people to think and consume information. Is that why they put all the bias and lies in there about the pandemic and the vaccine and climate and on and on and on, all of your core agendas?
Starting point is 00:10:22 Yes, you'll tell us the truth that there's only two genders. And everybody, oh, wow, that's good. These guys are on our side. It's called a con game. They have to tell you the truth about some things in order to get your confidence. So they can lie to you about what really matters to them. That's the way these con games work.
Starting point is 00:10:43 We allow our people to develop their own ideas and to debate with one another in the open marketplace of ideas uh-huh yeah i hear you well tell that to uh to vance tell that to vance tell that to your masters peter teal and uh the guy that you know he was j was J.D. Vance's mentor. And, of course, Peter Thiel founded Palantir. And there at Palantir, we've got Alex Karp. And I just played this for you the other day, how Alex Karp was talking about he's ecstatic because he's making so much money there at Palantir. And he gets to do exactly what he loves to do, which is to murder people.
Starting point is 00:11:26 We're doing it. We're doing it. And I'm sure you're enjoying this as much as I am. Let's not talk to analysts about the burden of being right, our burdens of investing in ontology, our burdens of actually looking at the math. Palantir is here to disrupt and make the institutions we partner with the very best at the math. Palantir is here to disrupt and make the institutions we partner with the very best in the world when it's necessary to scare enemies
Starting point is 00:11:52 and on occasion kill them. And we hope you're in favor of that. We hope you're enjoying being a partner. And we're really happy and very, very focused on what we're doing. Well, who are his enemies that he wants to scare and to kill on occasion when it's necessary? And we're doing well who are his enemies that he wants to scare and to kill on occasion when it's necessary and we we're doing it we're doing it well he's talked uh in the not
Starting point is 00:12:13 too distant past about campus protesters who are protesting the actions of the israeli government and uh he thinks it is very important to shut down that free speech. How about that, Vance? You think that that is something that is what the U.S. government should be doing? Or farming out to a military industrial complex contractor like Palantir? What I think is an often overlooked part of this battle is we kind of just think these things that are happening across college campuses especially are like a side show no they are the show because if we lose the intellectual debate you will not be able to deploy any army in the west ever and that's
Starting point is 00:12:59 and then of course our adversaries that's right now if they lose the intellectual debate then they won't be able to do pandemics with us. They won't be able to take everything, all of our food, all of our appliances, all of our transportation, our clothes. They won't be able to take all that away in the name of climate change if they lose that intellectual debate. So it really is about the First Amendment. First Amendment was first for a reason. It's not, you know, the Second Amendment is important, but not as important as the First Amendment.
Starting point is 00:13:30 I've seen the shirts. I've even got one, you know. George Washington didn't defeat the British by out debating them or whatever, right? He used firearms. But look, the pen is mightier than the sword and we know why that is because the pen turns the hearts and minds of people and then how are they going to use those swords why would they use them would they just surrender them would they surrender
Starting point is 00:14:00 to the lockdowns and all the rest of this stuff. And so when we look at Palantir saying, this is the war, this is, forget about, you know, trying to find the terrorists abroad and threatening them, scaring them and killing them. Let's threaten, scare them, who knows, you know, maybe kill people here domestically as well. People whose speech we don't like. And now we've got the Trump administration
Starting point is 00:14:20 saying that if you criticize a foreign government, then that's a hate crime. That's what it is. It's not anti-Semitism. It's a hate crime. And, you know, it's a criticism of a foreign government, rather. They want to call it anti-Semitism. They call it hate speech. And again, as I've said, you should never have any hate crimes because you don't have the ability to discern that with accuracy. You can look at motives. That's something that has always been looked at in conjunction with something that somebody actually does. But now they treat your speech as if it were violence.
Starting point is 00:15:03 They say that over and over again. And so people are being locked up for speech. That's the way you get there. And that's the way they're getting there now. Now, if I'm going to be convicted for hate speech when I criticize a foreign government, I wonder if that foreign government is governing our government. Don't you think they are? Does it necessarily follow? Why would our government make it illegal to criticize a foreign government and of course make it a penalty to disobey their agenda
Starting point is 00:15:37 when it comes to lockdown and all the rest of this stuff? I want to play for you something that I did a short clip. I did a week after the election. It was November the 10th, 2020. And it was in response to what had been done on, you know, this is coming back the Monday after the election. And I think it was a Monday, is it the Monday or the Tuesday, because it was something that was brand new. And what had happened was, you had the election,
Starting point is 00:16:11 then on Saturday, they declared Biden the winner, and then on Sunday, 60 Minutes had a canned piece about how the military was going to deliver all the vaccines and track all the vaccines. And then we saw a Wall Street Journal talking about a program that had been set up called
Starting point is 00:16:26 Tiberius. And Tiberius was going to be tracking the people who got the vaccines and the people who didn't get the vaccines. Because we had seen the forms go out in August of 2020, and it was all this information about you personally, when and where you got the vaccine and the lot number but then there was also something there that said refused oh so you're tracking the unvaccinated as well as the vaccinated right and of course the only thing they wanted to do to track the vaccinated really you know the only information that they had there that was medical was a lot number.
Starting point is 00:17:12 We subsequently found out that the concentration of active ingredients varied from 3 to 100, and I forget what the measurement was, but it varied by a factor of 33. And they found that the lots where it was the highest was where you had the instantaneous adverse effects. This is not due to just normal variation from person to person taking a drug no they were they're rolling the stuff out and testing it with different concentrations to see where the threshold was but again this is tiberius and it was for the military industrial complex to roll out and to track these vaccines. And I said, you know, it's kind of interesting because Tiberius was the second emperor of Rome, that empire. I said, this is kind of like the second shoe to drop along with 9-11. Because 9-11 and dark winter were launched at the same time. As a matter of fact, dark winter was two weeks before 9-11 and dark winter were launched right at the same time as a matter of fact dark winter
Starting point is 00:18:06 was two weeks before 9-11 9-11 helped to usher in the surveillance and police state and we know what this second version was used to usher in Yeah, Tiberius, our second generation emperor. Well, you know, don't you just love the military industrial complex and all the tough talk? Now, I'm going to tell them to execute it. I'm going to get it out there in 24 hours. I'm going to be able to track this everywhere. That's right. And we know exactly where this stuff is.
Starting point is 00:18:42 I'm going to bang my fist on the table and my fist on the table. Where is that shipment there? Get that out there to those people right now. Don't you just love that tough talk from the military? Don't you just love the military industrial complex? Don't you just love the empire we have become? Founders of this country understood that when we became an empire, the use of the defense forces that protect us abroad would return and turn on us. And now the military has crossed the Rubicon, just like our political class.
Starting point is 00:19:17 You are the enemy. They begin with economic sanctions, this war on the American people, on the middle class. Sanctions to destroy the middle class, to destroy the middle class to destroy our freedom destroy our human dignity and now it's come to this we've got some more clips about this yeah let's talk about the next move you know i said um when i watched the 60 minutes uh uh piece about operation warp speed and how the general is going to get it out he's going to execute it we're going to get it everywhere to everybody right at once within 24 hours. And then we've got CDC out there. They're going to report to us within 24 hours.
Starting point is 00:19:48 Everybody that gets it and where they got it, when they got it, how they got it. And they're also going to report to them within 24 hours, according to the CDC documents that I've read to you. The people who refused it. That's also going to be reported within 24 hours. And I said, I thought it was interesting that it was named tiberius because tiberius was the second emperor of imperial rome when rome became an empire and got rid of being a republic and this is now our second false flag i don't know but then it got even more significant because I noticed that Wall Street Journal was bragging about the fact that it's Palantir, Palantir, that the military has signed on to do the tracking for the COVID-19. State, local health officials and the military. now this should not come really as a surprise because palantir's entire business model
Starting point is 00:20:45 since they were created by funding from the cia and incutel they were created by the cia and their major contractors have all been the military and the surveillance state from the very beginning and they're very conscious about the analogy that they use they call themselves palantir because they're a data mining company and they talk about the hobbit and the shire and they have all these different things in their headquarters and of course if you remember the lord of the rings the palantir with the crystal balls and you can even see that in their logo crystal balls that were used by the kings to communicate with each other and then it got hijacked by the dark side maybe it was dark winter when that happened i don't know the dark side saron hijacks that and then with got hijacked by the dark side. Maybe it was dark winter when that happened. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:21:28 The dark side, Sauron hijacks that. And then with the Palantir, if you look into that Palantir, he can look into you right there. You remember that from the movie, right? He can look into you. And that's what they're doing with their data analytics. They're looking into you.
Starting point is 00:21:40 Now they're the company, of course, that's been tapped to track this. And, you know, Palantir does consciously like to name their products after what they're really designed for. And they were the ones who named the system Tiberius. Significant names and a nod to what this is really about, the empire. And, of course, if you point out the empire, the emperor has no clothes, you'll be attacked by the mob rather than thanked by the mob. You know, that's the difference in the fable in reality if you point and say this guy funded operation warp speed tens of billions of dollars and now the election's over he's not stopping it if you do that the mob of fans of the emperor with no clothes come after you that's right they don't like that
Starting point is 00:22:27 they don't like you point out that their emperor has no clothes yeah well you know i said that about how trump had set up palantir to attract the vaccines that he had created that he continued to cheer until even six months into his reelection campaign. They don't like you to say that. They don't like you to see that Trump had set up the tracking of vaccination status. That was also done by Biden. MAGA didn't want to hear it. Alex Jones didn't want to hear it either.
Starting point is 00:23:01 And I knew that. I knew he hated what I had to say just as much as the manga people did because that's where he's going to make his money drifting the manga people well kwd 68 says is ai being ideological it's time for an executive order we got to shut that down yeah it's uh i'm not worried uh well i am worried about the dei but we can take care of that ourselves i'm worried about the cia that's what I am worried about the DEI, but we can take care of that ourselves. I'm worried about the CIA. That's what I'm worried about. And the intelligence community, the military industrial complex.
Starting point is 00:23:31 Eric, thank you very much for the tip. And Gustav Seibin, thank you very much for the tip. He says, take a look, David. It's a war between national freedom and international slavery. Well, that's true. And he's got a website there, us.europathelastbattle.net. Europathelastbattle.net, but it's us.net. So, yeah, while they're watching us, these watchers, interestingly enough, want us to watch.
Starting point is 00:24:02 They want us to be spectators. And there was an excellent article by john stillman on brownstone he says how do we forge a spectator class that's what they want us to be they want us to be the spectator class and we've heard call row say that we are history's actors we will act and you will analyze and you will talk about it while you're analyzing and talking about it we'll do the next thing and then you can react and analyze to that do we want to get stuck in this trap this is what they want us to do and we've heard the same things from Yuval Harari he wants you to be taken out he wants you to sit there and watch porn and play video games and watch TV and watch sports and take drugs and just leave them to do what they want to do. They want to create a spectator class, a pacified spectator class.
Starting point is 00:24:53 And so Josh Dillman said, My father could disassemble and rebuild a car engine in our garage. I, like many of my generation, was steered toward the civilized path. White-collar work, climate-controlled offices, and an increasing detachment from the physical world. While I grew up loving sports, memorizing baseball stats with religious devotion, and finding genuine joy in games, something fundamental had shifted in how men engage with athletics today. In dimly lit rooms across the nation, millions of men gather every weekend adorned in jerseys bearing other men's names, not as a compliment to their own achievements, but as a substitute for them. Let me repeat that. These people devote themselves to watching sports not as a compliment to their
Starting point is 00:25:50 own achievements but as a substitute for any achievements of their own he said a growing segment of young men face an even more insidious form of spectator culture while their fathers at least watched real athletes achieve real things many young people now idolize social media personalities and content creators becoming passive observers of manufactured personas who achieve fame primarily by being watched watched they can recite influencer dramas achievements, but they don't know the stories of Solzhenitsyn. They've never built something with their own hands. The virtual has replaced the visceral. The parasocial has replaced the personal. History shows us a recurring cycle. Where are we in this cycle?
Starting point is 00:26:45 And interestingly enough, you've heard this analogy before, and it breaks down into the four generations, this trance and how we're talking about in the fourth turning. Hard times create strong men. That's the first generation. Second generation, strong men create good times. Third generation, good times create weak men. And the fourth generation, weak men create hard times. And it repeats again. That's the cycle, the cycle of history. Hard times create strong men,
Starting point is 00:27:23 strong men create good times. Good times create weak strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men, and weak men create hard times. Where are we? Well, we're the tail end of that fourth one. We are in the fourth turning, the tail end of the fourth turning, where weak men create hard times. That's where we are. You are there. We're all there. That's the overall system that we all have to live in regardless of our individual variations. Our sophisticated entertainment serves as a digital opiate. And they've openly said that's what they want. Yuval Harari. Yeah. We're going to use it as a drug for people. Keeping the
Starting point is 00:28:04 masses content while their capacity for meaningful action atrophies. You know, this is beyond bread and circuses. This is beer and circuses. Super Bowl weekend. This transformation is not accidental. He says, as I explored in my engineering reality series, the systematic reframing of physical fitness as problematic represents a calculated effort to weaken societal resilience.
Starting point is 00:28:32 Major media outlets like The Atlantic, you know who they work with and for. They work for NATO and the globalists there. And NBC, of course, have published pieces linking physical fitness to right-wing extremism. While academic institutions increasingly frame workout culture as problematic, even gym ownership has been characterized as a potential indicator of radicalization. This erosion of self-reliance extends far beyond fitness, though. A friend who's spent decades as an auto mechanic recently confided to me that he's grateful to be nearing retirement he said these teslas
Starting point is 00:29:10 they're not even cars anymore they're computers on wheels that's what eric peters calls them devices devices um when something goes wrong you don't fix it. You just replace entire modules. And he told him, he said, what was once a, that's what he said, when you just replace entire modules. His comment is, what was once a craft that any dedicated person could learn has become an exercise in supervised dependency. Klaus Schwab openly predicts that by 2030, LA will be private car driven free. And of course, so does Elon Musk. Elon Musk is showing this picture. It's silent, but for those of you who are watching it, you can see the cyber cab. It has two seats in it. It has no steering wheel, no brakes, no gas pedal. It will drive you you everywhere he's getting ready to roll this thing out there they show it navigating its way across a couple of planks and so forth and elon musk says
Starting point is 00:30:13 he's going to get rid of it why is it that when klaus schwab says exactly the same thing as elon musk klaus schwab is bad but elon musk is good or we ignore it for elon musk and it's the same thing that we do with trump you know trump says or it's the same thing that we do with Trump. Trump says or does exactly the same thing that Biden does, and we ignore it. Elon Musk does exactly and says the same things that Klaus Schwab
Starting point is 00:30:35 says, and we ignore that. Klaus is a villain. Musk is a hero. Trump is a hero. Biden is a villain. Even though they say and do the same things. Even Klaus Schwab openly predicts that by 2030, LA will be private car driven free. Just a fleet of self-driving Ubers.
Starting point is 00:30:55 Or perhaps Teslas. You won't fix anything anymore because you won't own anything anymore. The COVID response revealed this agenda was striking clarity. While liquor stores remained essential businesses, why would they be essential? Look at Soviet Russia. Vodka, alcoholism became epidemic. It was one way for people to try to cope, and they openly encouraged that. Churches, however, were shut down at the very beginning. And this is what happened during the Trump shutdowns, isn't it, as well? And the Trump shutdowns, and it was even upheld by some of his Supreme Court justices
Starting point is 00:31:35 who worked along with the leftists. And they said, no, you can open up the casino after this has gone on for a while. All right, we'll let you open up casinos now, but you can't open up churches. And so some people held a church service in a casino. How's that? Are we allowed to do that? No, no. PBS said the number one most dangerous thing you could do would be to go to church.
Starting point is 00:32:00 But he focuses on liquor stores versus gyms he says um uh liquor stores are essential businesses while authorities closed beaches parks and gyms the very places where people might maintain their physical and mental health what about the churches where you maintain your spiritual health and your mental health as well, which is downstream from your spiritual health. No, we got to definitely close that. He said, isolation over community, compliance over resilience, pharmaceutical dependency over natural immunity. You know, when you look at their paradigm, you got this virus, right? They've got virus. Oh, we haven't isolated them, but we have determined that they exist somehow.
Starting point is 00:32:49 And so let's assume that that's true. And let's assume that the purpose of the vaccine is to train your immune system with something that is dead or weakened so that your immune system will remember, recognize, and attack the real thing when it encounters it. So it's just a training operation. Now, what is it when you get sick with something and you recover? Well, that means that your immune system has identified a real threat and shut down the real threat. And so that's like telling somebody who, let's say the early days of dogfights.
Starting point is 00:33:24 Somebody learned to fly a plane. let's say the early days of dogfights. Somebody learned to fly a plane. Somehow they got involved in some dogfights, but they hadn't been to school to learn how to do dogfights. You know, that was a thing. Somebody had to do it first before they could teach other people how to do it, right? So they get into dogfights and they are very successful and they win time and again.
Starting point is 00:33:46 And then the military says, well, yeah, the problem is, though, you can't be a fighter pilot because you haven't gone to training yet. We need to have you go to some simulation games about this stuff. Of course, our military today would do exactly that type of thing. That's exactly the type of thing that they would do and send them to DEI training as well. But that's the the type of thing that they would do and send them to dei training as well but uh that's the absurdity of this if you have if your body has fought off some disease according to their paradigm it has learned that but no we heard exactly the opposite which made no sense whatsoever fauci saying no no no natural immunity you can't have natural immunity now well if you can't have natural immunity then the vaccines aren't going to work maybe that's why they don't work right maybe everything about that paradigm is wrong
Starting point is 00:34:28 nevertheless he said true masculinity has never been solely about physical strength history's greatest examples of masculine virtue weren't just men of action they were men of principle, wisdom, and moral courage. He says from Marcus Aurelius to Omar Little. I have no idea who Omar Little is, but I do know the Lord Jesus Christ. He was meek, but he was not weak. He set his face like flint to go to Jerusalem, even though he had just told his disciples he was going to be killed there. He laid down his life for his friends, for you.
Starting point is 00:35:11 And when he set his face like flint, you know, that is not in like flint. They picked that up. Why did they pick that up? Well, because flint is tough. You know, we want to have a spy in like flint they picked that up why they picked that up well because flint is tough you know we want to have a spy in like flint we have a spy who's tough now what was what is it about flint well think about the flint lock right it was something that was used in early days for weapons but when they used it for the flint lock they used it because it could be struck again and again and again, and it was tough. They would use that spark after striking the flint again and again and again.
Starting point is 00:35:55 So Christ took the repeated blows. He was tough. He was durable. He wasn't weak, but he was humble and meek. That's your example. But he did more than just provide an example for us. He provided a way for us to get right with God. He says, consider how many men today silently acquiesce to policies they know wrong. How many men embrace narratives that they privately doubt. How many submit to institutional pressures that violate their conscience. This is why I focus so much, and he mentioned earlier,
Starting point is 00:36:36 Solzhenitsyn's, why I focus so much on Solzhenitsyn's live not by lies. That's what people needed to hear. They need to hear that in 2020. Oh, it's just 4D chess. Trust the plan and all the rest of this stuff. Yeah, right. Yeah, Trump is lying to them. But don't worry. He's on our side still. Maybe he's lying to you. If somebody's a liar, they'll lie to both sides. But yeah, you need to not live by lies. You need to
Starting point is 00:37:08 not live by double think. You must not look at this and say, look at how bad this vaccine is. We see that. Whether it's W&D or whether it's Breitbart or on and on, Zero Head, you name it. All of these people, they will talk about how evil the vaccine is and they'll never connect it to Trump. Give him the credit he demands. Don't live by lies. Don't embrace this double think that the vaccine is bad, but the guy who gave it to us and brags about it is good.
Starting point is 00:37:40 During COVID, we watched as men who understood the importance of natural immunity outdoor exercise and community bonds nevertheless enforced policies that harm their neighbors and their families they chose institutional compliance over moral courage career over civic duty majority approval over personal conviction and folks this is what the media is about. I see it everywhere. So few people. So few people will tell you the truth. They will tell you what is in their interests.
Starting point is 00:38:15 And that's especially true now, the alternative media. Just as bad as MSNBC and CNN. So, real strength, he says, is not found in anonymous aggression or digital posturing he says i learned this firsthand during covid when i spoke out against the vaccine mandates and became a pariah for defending personal choice and bodily autonomy well i went a little bit further i attacked the poison that alex was calling sugar water while numerous brave keyboard warriors attacked me online he said one incident stands out a friend forwarded me a reddit thread where someone had posted personal information about my family me trying to
Starting point is 00:38:56 dox him hoping to incite harassment against me all because i stood up for bodily autonomy and opposed arbitrary biomedical segregation. The initials, though, gave it away. It was my own neighbor, someone I had known for years. When I confronted him in person, this digital lion transformed instantly into a cowering mouse. I've seen the same thing with Alex Jones. These tough guys. You want to fight?
Starting point is 00:39:29 You got one. What did he do? He rolled over for Trump. Give me a break. Civilizations thrive when diverse virtues work in concert, he said. And what he's talking about is husband and wife, mom and dad. You have builders and nurturers working together. You have protectors and healers.
Starting point is 00:39:50 You have strength balanced with empathy. That's why God created us differently. Today's systemic erosion of both is not random but calculated. As men are steered toward passive consumption, and women away from their intuitive wisdom, both are replaced by institutional authority. A nanny state that attempts to fill both roles and achieves neither role. Well, that is absolutely the truth.
Starting point is 00:40:21 And, you know, we saw this in the Super Bowl, didn't we? And let me give you an example. This is from the Super Bowl. This is a Mary Sue fantasy of football, a Mary Sue fantasy football league. Take a look at this. This is a woman who's going to show these tough guys, a woman of color, by the way. Who's going to show these tough white guys what's real. Let's settle this once and for all. Your best guy.
Starting point is 00:40:49 Girl. Whatever. Versus our best guy. You think DEI is dead? Not that Brad. I'm Brad. I can read. So she's going to show up this huge guy.
Starting point is 00:41:18 There you go. You got folded up, Brad. Get her. Okay, okay. That's what I'm talking about. He can't lay a hand on her. And neither can anybody else. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:41:32 Leave the past behind. Buy Nike gear. And you'll be just like her. Yeah. Superhuman strength. How many times is Hollywood and Madison Avenue going to sell us that lie? Well, you know, here's the real reality. Yeah, the NFL flag football.
Starting point is 00:41:51 NFL flag football. You know, let's let women and men play together. Well, here's the reality. Tyreek Hill runs back a punt return against 40, 40 female football players, and they can't play a hand on him. Yeah, yeah, okay. There's fantasy football and reality football. Two different things.
Starting point is 00:42:23 So the first one was from the NFL, and they do not want to get rid of DEI. The other one was the reality. And then this was a commercial. That was a Super Bowl commercial. And talking about life. Harrison Ford. The longest thing we ever do is live our lives. But life doesn't come with an owner's manual might have been nice but that means we get to write our own stories
Starting point is 00:42:52 oh that's right if you if you let's just stop it right there i saw that and it's like oh life doesn't come with an owner's manual. Yes, it does. It comes with a manufacturer's manual. It's called the Bible. Basic instructions before leaving earth. You have an owner's manual. If you throw the owner's manual away, then you can just do whatever you want, right? That's what they're selling you. Follow your dream.
Starting point is 00:43:22 You're not responsible to anybody or anyone. You'll answer to God someday. That's the reality. And here is an Irish teacher who has been punished for standing up to the transgender ideology and asks why the church has betrayed its Christian faith. Because he was teaching at a nominal Christian school run by the Church of Ireland. They call themselves Christian, but they're not. They don't follow Christ.
Starting point is 00:43:52 They don't follow his rules. They've thrown out the owner's manual, right? Say, we're going to do it our own way. We don't care. You don't own us, Christ. This is the Church of Ireland running this running this school that's why i call them nominal christians i said we're christian well christian name only um enoch burke an irish teacher who is christian has been persecuted by the state for standing up for children and for
Starting point is 00:44:17 his christian beliefs his crime was to refuse to call a child they them and to return to his place of work while the appeal for his dismissal is waiting to be heard and for this so-called crime he has spent more than 500 days in jail over three stints and he now faces fines of over 190 000 pounds pounds. That's $236,000. More than a quarter, well, nearly a quarter of a million that he has to pay in fines. He was suspended and later fired from the church's school after refusing to address a pupil.
Starting point is 00:44:55 See, the church is not, not only not defending him, the church is his persecutor. We're at the point where the nominal Christian denominations have become the persecutors of Christians're at the point where the nominal Christian denominations have become the persecutors of Christians. And of course, that's where you'd expect it to start, isn't it, if you look at history? So he is fired from the school after refusing to address a pupil who was
Starting point is 00:45:18 undergoing so-called transitioning to appear as a different gender with the chosen pronoun and the new name. And following his suspension, he continued to show up to the school in an attempt to teach lessons resulting in court injunction that barred him from the school grounds. His brother said judge after judge has refused to vindicate and uphold his constitutional right to freedom of religion and expression. What about my beliefs? See, you're going to dominate me and you're going to tell me that I have to say that 2 plus 2 equals 5. That's what this is all about.
Starting point is 00:45:52 Orwell knew that. Enoch Burke's ongoing imprisonment is a true face of the so-called inclusive LGBT movement. This is a sincere, upright Christian teacher arrested and imprisoned after simply refusing to endorse and to affirm transgenderism, an anti-Christian ideology that entraps vulnerable children and puts them on a fast track to abuse, mutilation, depression, and sadly for so many suicide suicide well um when we come back we're
Starting point is 00:46:31 going to talk about freedom and uh how that uh really is necessarily religious and how you cannot separate that out north North American House Hippo says, My employer has put dozens of electric buses into service. We're instructed to give the bus two minutes to boot up. The instructions on how to start the bus runs four pages. Better follow those instructions. You don't want to start that thing burning. That's not a good thing at all. Well, I would imagine that this is going to be short run
Starting point is 00:47:07 with any luck while it is charging one of these things is charging and nobody's around with any luck it'll spontaneously combust and take out the bus stations as it did in stuttgart and i think munich it did it to german cities it did it in france uh we got pictures of a french bus that just pulled over to let people get on. It spontaneously combusts at the top. So make sure you've got some fireproof clothing. Happiness. We all know what it feels like, but sometimes it doesn't come easy. I'm Garvey Bailey, the host of Happy Enough, a new podcast from the Globe and Mail about our pursuit of happiness. We know people want to live more fulfilling and positive lives.
Starting point is 00:47:51 But how do we actually do that? Is there a happiness code to crack? From our relationship with technology to whether money can really buy you happiness, we'll hear from both real people and experts to demystify this thing we're all searching for and hopefully find ways to be happy enough. You can find Happy Enough wherever you listen to podcasts. We're going to take a quick break and we'll be right back. © transcript Emily Beynon You're listening to The David Knight Show.
Starting point is 00:49:12 Well, let's continue on with this. And let's talk about the church and the political order. You think it has a place in the political order you think it has a place in political order in terms of freedom you know i had a lot of people who had put up i'm a christian i'm libertarian um on twitter in the days when i wasn't shadow man somebody put something under one of my posts and said you know uh did you know that you're shadow band i said of course i know i'm shadow band i have been for years it's quite obvious i mean you just especially mean, especially because you look at the number of people that have even seen what you put up. Not the number of people that liked it or retweeted it.
Starting point is 00:49:52 Just how many people have seen it. Just look at somebody who's got a post that maybe doesn't have that much engagement on it. But they might get a few thousand views on it. And maybe they've got 10,000 people or something. I've got just under, well, 138,000 or something like that. And, you know, I might have 100 people see the tweet. And people who have 1,000 followers might, you know, get that amount. So, yeah, heavily shadow banned. And I said, well, you know, you can get get um that amount so yeah heavily shadow ban i said well you can get rid of that
Starting point is 00:50:27 it's like why would i even bother on musk's twitter um you know if um it either shadow banned me again or banned me completely if he saw my tweets there so um you know i'll just put it up there if uh whoever um god wants to see it they'll see it i believe in god's sovereignty, you know, I just put it up there. If whoever God wants to see it, they'll see it. I believe in God's sovereignty. So, you know, I kind of live, I'm not desperate to try to get myself in front of a lot of eyeballs there. But I'd have a lot of people back in the day when I wasn't shadow banned. A lot of people say, how can you be a Christian and libertarian? And I said, well, that's why I called it libertitarian. Because I'm about liberty.
Starting point is 00:51:09 I'm not about the libertarian party. You know, we just used to call people who wanted freedom, they used to call them liberals. And liberals, the people we call liberals today stole that like they steal everything. They steal your money. They steal your rights. So they stole the name liberal from people who wanted liberty. And then had to come up with another name, libertarian. But of course, the LP is pretty libertine as well in terms of trying to divorce liberty from a moral foundation. I don't
Starting point is 00:51:40 think you can do that. I don't think these two are opposed to each other, being libertarian or Christian. So, in fact, I don't think you can, you have to have both of those, you can't have liberty away from Christ. Freedom is in Christ. Outside of Christ, you are enslaved to whatever it is that you serve, whether it is money or power or sex or drugs or whatever. You've got an enslavement to that.
Starting point is 00:52:09 But it's also the fact that the founders of this country understood and said, we have a form of government that will only be able to be sustained if the people are moral. And so this article from Kevin Shroom, an American reformer, says the ancient question, what has Athens to do with Jerusalem? In other words, if Jerusalem would represent in the old days a metaphor for a spiritual center and Athens would represent the political, you know, what do the two have to do with each other? So we used to need God, but now that science and modern medicine, this is the argument, right? We used to need God, but now that we got science and modern medicine and we got AI, we don't need God anymore. We've been set free from the need to believe in God. We believe in science and self and in the state.
Starting point is 00:53:04 Yeah. And what will take Christianity's place, he says? Well, it's not going to have its place taken by atheism. No, you're going to serve someone. You're going to worship something. You know, the heart is an idol factory. If you look at Bob Dylan, during his short Christian phase, he said, you're going to serve someone.
Starting point is 00:53:24 You're going to serve something. You're going to serve something. We're always out there looking for something to idolize, aren't we? So he said, it's going to be a new paganism. As many people have pointed out, the return of the so-called strong gods of antiquity. Mysticism, the dark arts, and scientism is a part of that science as a religion not as a thought process not as a way of proving the physical reality of something or of disproving something that somebody has said that's equally important no no no we're not going to look at data you can't see the data you can't see the data from fatch you can't see the data from pfizer you can't see
Starting point is 00:54:04 the data from michael mann you can't see the data. You can't see the data from Fauci. You can't see the data from Pfizer. You can't see the data from Michael Mann. You can't see the data, period. You just do what they have to say. It's an argument from authority. These are the people who are our high priests, and whatever they say, we must follow. The ability to refashion human nature, in other words, to make a biological boy into a girl, to even turn men into gods, or basically to create life without having two parents. Being able to genetically modify a baby, hatch them, and so forth. This is playing God. And when you look at this, the whole aspect of, well, we're going to join with machines and we're going to become cyborgs as the Baphomet billionaire, Elon Musk wants us to believe.
Starting point is 00:54:51 And we're going to become powerful. We're going to merge with AI and the robots and we're going to live forever. That's what he's selling. That is the transhumanism. But of course, transgenderism is an important part of that. If you can become a different sex which you can't and it is what they do is they mutilate people they butcher people it's a frankenstein approach and all of this stuff about brain computer interfaces and the singular and all the rest of the stuff. This is, this is heinous Frankenstein type of science.
Starting point is 00:55:28 The kind of freedom that is often pursued these days is dangerous and elusive. It's dangerous because once it is obtained, it's often misused and abused. Freedom turns to vice if it is not disciplined. That's a freedom turns to vice if it's not disciplined. That's why the founders talked about happiness. When they talked about happiness, it wasn't just a, oh, great, I feel good today. No, no, no. They were talking about happiness in the philosophical and the rhetorical world in which they lived.
Starting point is 00:55:59 Happiness was about achieving a state of virtue. It wasn't just about satisfying whatever your animal instincts were. No, it was about pursuing virtue. True freedom begins by being set free from sin. Set free for a relationship with God and Christ, reminding us that he is God, not us. The original bondage is the bondage to sin. Made in God's image, we have stiff-armed God. We have sinned against the one who not us. The original bondage is the bondage to sin. Made in God's image, we have stiff-armed God. We have sinned against the one who made us. Sin brought spiritual death, alienation, bondage, spiritual confusion, a disconnection from reality. If you disconnect from God, you have disconnected
Starting point is 00:56:39 from the ultimate reality. In his infinite mercy, God chose not to leave us in bondage, but sent his son, the God-man, Jesus Christ, on a rescue mission. He died a substitutionary death, was buried, raised from the dead, knowing these truths, and knowing the person of truth, sets us free from sin, from death, from future judgment. True freedom comes from truth, forgiveness, and spiritual liberation. You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free. Freedom in Christ sets us free from the main bondage we experience, and that is the bondage of thinking that we are God. That's exactly the opposite of what they paid big bucks
Starting point is 00:57:24 to have Harrison Ford tell you. Life doesn't come with a manual. You got to figure that all out yourself. Well, no, actually, it does come with a manual. And if you know Christ, you also get a helper. Rather than the false freedom play God, we're set to free our true selves in Christ. So he talks about this in terms of the founding of America. And he talks about it in terms of horizontal freedom.
Starting point is 00:57:55 He says true freedom doesn't terminate in personal individual freedom. Personal freedom is not a spiritual cul-de-sac. When a person is set free in Jesus Christ, they long to be free in other ways as well, politically, economically, educationally, socially. One freedom follows another. And this is why anti-Christian and anti-God cultures hate the gospel. Cultures like North Korea, China, India, you name it, right? They seek to suppress it.
Starting point is 00:58:27 Why? Because politicians always want to see, of all people, politicians want to see themselves as God. They don't want to have any competition. But they also don't want people becoming free. They want you to be controlled by them. For example, America can claim a Christian founding because the earliest settlers desired the freedom to worship God according to the dictates of their
Starting point is 00:58:52 own conscience without unwarranted government intervention. Yet this led to more than just worship. It led to settlement. It led to societal development. It led to the Protestant work ethic because of the belief that God has honored by the use of our freedoms an effort to build something, to create something, to fulfill the dominion mandate of Genesis. America was and is a unique experience in human liberty because the freedom that produces and builds rather than tyranny, authoritarianism, and all-encompassing government. That was the mindset of the people there. You know, when people argue, was America a Christian nation or whatever? It was, this is not to say
Starting point is 00:59:38 that the politicians were Christians. Some were, some weren't. It's not to say that the people who wrote down these basic philosophies were Christians. Some were, some weren't. It's not to say that the people who wrote down these basic philosophies were Christians. Some were, some weren't. But Christianity pervaded American society at the time, just as this kind of spectator paganism, hedonism permeates our society today. It was a very different society. America is not anything like the America that was gifted freedom by God.
Starting point is 01:00:15 Because that's the other part of it. It's not a spiritual cul-de-sac, but it's also not something that we do ourselves. Our spiritual freedom, as well as these other horizontal freedoms, are gifts from God. That was something that was acknowledged by our founders. So America was and is a unique experiment in human history because of that freedom that produces and builds. America was not a Christian nation
Starting point is 01:00:41 in that it was a theocracy, like Israel was a theocracy. However, it was and is, let's that it was a theocracy, like Israel was a theocracy. However, it was and is, let's hope that I don't know, I don't think that it is anymore, a Christian nation and that its DNA was Christian from the outside set. Its founding principles were Christian. In brief, objective, vertical freedom in Christ led many to seek freedom on horizontal levels, political, economic, social, educational. This is why the Declaration of Independence says,
Starting point is 01:01:12 we hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal. By the way, it holds that the creator is also self-evident, doesn't it? And that is true. We understand that the things that we see were created by things that we do not see. We understand there had to be an intelligence behind the creation of things as complex as us, even as complex as our DNA.
Starting point is 01:01:36 It has to be a creator. It is self-evident, isn't it? And that we're endowed by our creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, the self-evident God and the self-evident God-given truths form the basis of the pursuit of a free society that is productive.
Starting point is 01:01:59 That is why you can't separate these things. Well, when we return, we're going to talk about ego and vanity you know we're going to talk about uh the ego and vanity of this administration in particular what is going on in greenland and also canada panama what is this obsession that trump has with this well there's an interesting op-ed piece out of RT, and this is a foreign perspective. A lot of people have guessed as to what the motivations are of Trump. Why is he so focused on Greenland, Canada, and the Panama Canal and so forth? And we've seen explanations.
Starting point is 01:02:39 Well, you know, it's the 10 districts that the Club of Rome had and all the rest of the stuff. They have a different idea for that. And that's what we're going to talk about when we return and we'll be right back Thank you. You're listening to The David Knight Show. We were talking during the break. The listener said the worship of academia is the opposite of science. Yeah, that's Francis Bacon. Contrasted the scientific method that he came up with with academia. Any critical thinking or actual science is taboo to these people you got to follow their dogma blindly or you are anti-science
Starting point is 01:04:52 yeah and that's uh that's from the very beginning as i've always said yeah science should always be skeptical because people don't have perfect knowledge. And knowledge is always increasing. And so you see science changing as well. And so science is never settled. And if you ever hear anybody say that science is settled, ignore them. They don't know the first thing about science. Jason Barker. Hollywood does not specialize in telling a story anymore.
Starting point is 01:05:22 It's all about normalizing a narrative. Isn't that interesting? You know, it's the perfect place for them to sell narratives, isn't it? Because they're selling you a narrative story. And I used to live in that world. And I guess I should, you know, always the question was, you know, are we manipulating society? And I would hear them talk about this because i would go to these video software dealer association conventions and stuff and we would go there to you know see the latest
Starting point is 01:05:51 shelving or whatever you know but they they would also have um you know movie stars like charlton heston they're signing autographs and stuff like that um i'll tell the story uh we were one of these things. And, of course, they got all these people around there promoting their movies. And some of them are pretty big stars. And some of them were not. And I was there with Karen. And I'm talking to her.
Starting point is 01:06:15 And over her shoulder, I see Dr. Dean Adele, who I knew from the Today Show. And he was a guy who I didn't really pay that much attention to but i don't remember what he was health issues or something like that for the today show in the morning and i would catch him sometimes a little better but i knew who he was it's like um and and he's sitting there and there's nobody around him and he's on a bench and he's got a video that he wants to hawk right and um and i i saw him and i like dr dean adele and karen turns around she says who she had no idea this guy was and when i said it's dr dean adele his face lit up it's like finally somebody's recognized me and then she goes who who that guy who is he you know and then his whole face just sunk again
Starting point is 01:07:07 you know he's he's by himself yet again but uh we would go to these things and um you know they would talk about uh coming dvd technology or whatever in the days when everything was vhs and uh it was you'd hear some of these people would, would talk about, um, you know, they, they were aware of what they were doing, aware that, cause we have people just like I confronted, uh, that guy about, uh, well, you've got DVD, you've got the technology to produce airplane versions, cleaned up versions of stuff. So people can watch it with their family and not be offended and embarrassed and things like that. And I don't know, we don't want to do that. Other people would say, why don't you focus more on family entertainment? Why are you making all this stuff R-rated or worse? Look, we don't set societal values, they would say.
Starting point is 01:08:02 We are reflecting what you are. No, they weren't. No, they weren't. No, they weren't. They were the tip of the spear. They were moving things. They were the ones who were the movers, the shakers, the narrative builders. They absolutely were. And since then, I have heard some of these people talk about, some of these writers talk about how they would lay on a couch and they would, you know, maybe take some drugs or whatever.
Starting point is 01:08:30 And they just kind of channel these narratives. And it's like, where do you think that's coming from? You think that's satanic? I do. I do. And, of course, a lot of them, you get a lot of this predictive programming that is out there. Oh, look at this. Hollywood made a movie about this exact false flag or whatever that the government is pushing
Starting point is 01:08:48 on. It's contagion or whatever. You know, they made all these movies about this stuff in the past. Well, the CIA had a website for that. They would work with Hollywood. And you could see the public. If you're somebody who creates stories or you're a screenwriter or something like that, we've got a lot of great stories for you.
Starting point is 01:09:06 Come to us and we'll give them to you. Or we'll help you to develop an idea. We'll make it more interesting. They put themselves out there to help with that stuff. And you want to talk about a satanic group channeling evil, that's the CIA right there. That's their job description, I guess. As far as I'm concerned, that's their job description I guess uh as far as I'm concerned that's their job description uh octo spook how long before the sexually mutilated children grow up and realize what's been done to them and strike back with a vengeance well some of them
Starting point is 01:09:34 I've already started with the lawsuits so some lawsuits have already been filed uh and it may get worse than that who knows uh brian and deb mccartney it has always been about indoctrination rather than entertainment but they hit it and they did it much better in the days gone by that's right you can see all that stuff you can see it and if they wanted to push you in a particular direction first they would take the taboo and they would make a comedy out of it, right? Whatever was the taboo that they wanted to erase, they would make it funny, and then they would, so you're laughing at this thing, right? And then they make it sympathetic.
Starting point is 01:10:18 And then before you know it, they're giving you a narrative that this is superior to the way that you are. That's always been the way they would run it. Risha M. I was wondering how much Donald Trump charges for Mar-a-Lago membership. $200,000 to hang out there. That's crazy. Well, you know, I'm getting a little bit ahead of myself where I was going to bring this in.
Starting point is 01:10:41 But since you brought that up, this interesting thing appeared. Somebody got a picture of that. This is a goat. where I was going to bring this in, but since you brought that up, this interesting thing appeared. Somebody got a picture of that. This is a goat, and it looks like it's covered with bills. If you look closer at those bills, it's a $100 bill with the image of Donald Trump, and it's plastered all over that goat. And here's a collage of what some people put up like the one where trump is looking in the mirror and what he sees is uh a goat head in a suit the satanic stuff yeah yeah two hundred thousand dollars to get you in there um the internet reacts
Starting point is 01:11:20 to a golden hoofed trump cash covered goat idol at Mar-a-Lago. The statue covered in $100 Trump bills that say, In Trump we trust, replacing In God we trust. I don't know. You know, they keep making these idols. They keep setting him up as a savior, as chosen one and all the rest of stuff and then when you call them out on no no no we're not worshiping him as god well if it looks like it smells like it walks like it that's what it is it is idolatry but let's talk a little bit about Greenland. Oh, to look around at the patch of ground.
Starting point is 01:12:06 Oh, let Mother Nature sit. And who better to bring it to us? Though it's horrible to visit, it's a miserable place to live. So what is this about? This horrible place to visit and a miserable place to live? Only 56,000 people there, but a massive amount of land land a lot of resources there and i've said all along so uh is trump going to bribe these 56 000 people to sign on to become america you know to assert their right of self-governance and pay them off with our money, and then turn the natural resources over to his buddies?
Starting point is 01:12:45 There's an interesting op-ed piece on RT from Konstantin von Hoffmeister. What's his name? Hoffmeister. Von Hoffmeister. A political-cultural commentator from Germany. Author of a new book, Multipolarity. And so, his take on it is a little bit different. He says, here's why Trump really wants to get his hands on Greenland and Canada. And Canada. He says, in a world caught between ecological limits and technological ambition, the revival of long dormant vision of the technate.
Starting point is 01:13:19 When he talks about the technate, he's talking about what we call the technocracy. But he's really, you know, the technocracy but he's really you know technocracy is a form of government he's talking about the technate as being the people you know the you know the people all these uh billionaires uh amazon um jeff bezos and you got apples um i think tim cook was there i know that sandar peachai was there. I know that Sondar Pichai was there from Google. And, of course, Musk and all the rest of them all lined up. Zuckerberg, Meta, and Facebook, they're all lined up there. I've never seen that before.
Starting point is 01:13:54 The technate billionaires. The long dormant vision of the technate suggests that America's future may be shaped not by traditional geopolitics, but by the pursuit of industrial autarky, resource control, and the promise of a self-sustaining technocratic order. And of course, this is something that has been talked about in a great deal by the Huxleys, you know, the grandfather of Aldous and Julian Huxley. Aldous Huxley gave us Brave New World. Julian Huxley coined the term transhumanism. And their grandfather, Todd H.G. Wells, who gave us these ideas of technocratic rule in terms of things to come and the movie, the shape of things to come. I forget which one's the book and which one's the movie.
Starting point is 01:14:54 And the grandfather of Elon Musk, Joshua Haldane, who was in Canada. He was brought up on charges, tried, beat the rap, and beat it out of Canada and went to South Africa because of all this stuff. So it was really the vogue in the 1930s that the technocrats were the ones who should rule everything. So getting back to this op-ed piece, he said it was an unexpected move. Bewildering, bewildering analysts across the globe after securing victory in the election,
Starting point is 01:15:19 Trump did not immediately focus on the perceived strategic rivals like China, Russia, Iran, as the geopolitical forecasters had so confidently predicted. Instead, his gaze settled on Canada, Greenland, and the Panama Canal. Territories that at first glance seemed disconnected from the expected choreography of American foreign policy ambitions. A lot of people were saying, what is this about? You didn't talk about this. I voted for him.
Starting point is 01:15:45 I didn't vote for him to take over the Panama Canal or Canada or something like that. Well, he was owned by the technocracy. That's what they want. This pivot raised a chorus of speculation and debate. Many theories put forward,
Starting point is 01:16:00 yet among the multitude of explanations, only one has managed to weave together the strands of Trump's apparent unpredictability into a coherent narrative. This theory traces the logic of these moves back to a long-forgotten vision of the technocratic society that emerged in the technate, lie in the vision of a society governed not by politicians or financiers, but by, or I would say, you know, lawyers. But, of course, I guess that's being redundant for the politicians. Not governed by politicians or financiers, but by scientists and engineers, guided by the principles of efficiency, technological mastery, and resource optimization. And, again, that is key with the things to come or the shape of things to come. And H.G. Wells, I think he lays that out precisely.
Starting point is 01:16:50 In the worldview of early technocrats, economic systems based on arbitrary currencies and speculative markets were seen as chaotic relics of the past. They wanted to get away from currencies. They wanted to get away from currencies they wanted to get away from stock markets they wanted to get away from these economic systems and the politicians instead they proposed that energy itself measurable and quantifiable should serve as a basis for all economic transactions and and you know really there was a kind of an echo of that. When Henry Kissinger, one of these globalists, if ever there was one, one of the key globalists, when he created the petrodollar, what he did was he wedded the fiat currency of the United States and Bretton Woods, too.
Starting point is 01:17:41 He wedded that to energy, in a sense. But these people were saying, no, no, we're just going to price everything in energy. Think about how they want to, with digital surveillance, they want to look at all of our transactions and all of our economic activity in terms of how much energy is used. It isn't about emissions, folks. That's nonsense. And we've talked about that over and over again. No, it's about measuring what you do with energy. When you look at the CBDC objectives, or if they do it in some kind of a de facto manner,
Starting point is 01:18:17 where they surveil our economic activity, they're surveilling our use. That's what the carbon tax is about. It's a tax on your energy use, and this is technocratic in its essence. So they propose that we would just look at energy and energy use. That would be the way that we price all activity.
Starting point is 01:18:40 It should serve as a basis for all economic transactions, which is what they're talking about. Forget about the, look, CO2 and methane. Oh, that's just smoke and mirrors. To get you confused, it's really about measuring your energy use. The technate would thus become self-contained and self-sustaining entity where wealth is defined by the availability of natural resources. Hmm. Hence, they want to have their own personal power stations for their
Starting point is 01:19:13 companies and for themselves, of course. It required a very particular environment, one with abundant natural resources, advanced industrial infrastructure, and a population trained to navigate the demands of highly mechanized society. The ideal setting, according to the early technocratic theorists, was North America, with its vast mineral wealth, fertile lands, and unmatched potential for hydroelectric and for industrial power. Canada, with its rich deposits of metals and minerals, and Greenland, with its untapped resources of
Starting point is 01:19:46 rare earth elements were integral to this vision. The Panama Canal was a lifeline, connecting the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, and it would further ensure the region's strategic autonomy from global supply chains. Musk's indirect connection to this vision adds an intriguing twist to the story. Musk, known for his futurist ambitions and his technological ventures, is the grandson of the former director of the Canadian branch of Technocracy Incorporated, an organization that once propagated these very ideas
Starting point is 01:20:20 before its activities were curtailed by the Canadian government. As I said, Joshua Haldane, he was brought up on charges trying to overthrow the government. And he got out. Whether Musk consciously channels this legacy or not, his influence within Trump's circle has evidently revived interest from the concept of a self-sustaining North American technate. From this perspective, Trump's desire to acquire Greenland and to secure control over the Panama
Starting point is 01:20:47 Canal becomes less of an eccentric detour and more of a calculated step toward fulfilling a technocratic vision that has long been dormant but never entirely forgotten. And I think this is true. I think this is a more focused explanation of this than the Club of Rome and the Ten Regions. I always said from the very beginning, I thought it was about the resources, and I thought it was about giving the resources to his friends. And when you stop and reflect on what the technocracy has always been about, the fact that elon musk and peter teal i mean they have peter teal funded the singularity uh elon musk is an evangelist for it you know the singularity of society they have an annual thing um ray kurzweil is featured as a speaker there all the time you know we're going to merge with the machines and all the rest of the stuff that's
Starting point is 01:21:42 what they mean by the singularity when you look look at these guys, these guys are dyed-in-the-wool technocrats, transhumanists. And it's in his DNA. It's in his family. And it's not just a political idea. It's a spiritual idea. And it's got some real spiritual connections with it. You know, nothing to think about when you see him wearing a Baphomet costume and so proud of it that he makes it his profile picture for about two years.
Starting point is 01:22:11 Most analytical political analysts saw his rhetoric about Canada and Greenland as either bluster or opportunistic real estate maneuvering. Yet when viewed through the lens of technocratic theory, a different logic emerges. The energy-intensive industries that would power a new era of American greatness require access to mineral reserves, to hydroelectric power, to strategic shipping routes. Canada's vast natural wealth, Greenland's potential as a future resource hub, and the Panama Canal's role as a vital artery of trade are not peripheral concerns. They are central to the construction of a modern technate and everything about it. All of this, you know, we're going to have a global idea.
Starting point is 01:23:01 Global currency is going to measure your energy usage, not about emissions. Again, that's a smokescreen. By 2025, it seems key figures in this administration have recognized that achieving this vision would require more than tax cuts and deregulation. It would demand the strategic acquisition of resources and infrastructure beyond America's current borders, assets that could anchor a new era of technological and industrial expansion. The technate is not merely a speculative idea, but it is a pragmatic blueprint for securing
Starting point is 01:23:36 national prosperity and increasingly multipolar world. Now, having said that, I know that the Trump fans will, I put some truth out there that I know that they're going to say, see, he's a G, he's on our side. He's going to make America great again. And he's going to do it by establishing a technocracy where everything that we do is measured in terms of the energy usage and controlled on that basis. Isn't that wonderful? Don't you love it? It's great because it's Trump. Now, if it was Klaus Schwab, it'd be bad. But if it's Trump or Musk, that's good now. And so it is the self-interested technate. Folks, this is elitism on steroids. It is Satanism on steroids. And yet you have the MAGA people. They're masquerading this as making America great again.
Starting point is 01:24:31 And these satanic elites will do this with the help of useful idiots like this guy, Representative Buddy Carter out of Georgia. A Georgia congressman has moved to help Trump acquire Greenland. He wants to rename Greenland Red, White, and Blue Land. This is not the Babylon Bee. This is what you would expect from a Babylon Bee headline. This is for real. He's introduced this bill in Congress.
Starting point is 01:25:04 And he calls it the Red, White, and Blue Land Act of 2025. For real. He's absolutely, he's introduced this bill in Congress. And he calls it the Red, White, and Blue Land Act of 2025. He's introduced a bill in Congress. Now, so far, he just introduced this. He introduced it yesterday. So far, he doesn't have any co-signers. But I'm telling you that if Trump looks at this and likes it, he'll get co-signers. They will kiss the ring.
Starting point is 01:25:34 He introduced, a buddy Carter, introduced the bill on Tuesday, proposing Greenland's name be changed to red, white, and blue land. America is back and soon will be bigger than ever, he said, quote unquote. President Trump has correctly identified the purchase of what is now Greenland as a national security priority. Let me just say this for all the newbies and naive people out there. Whenever they talk about national security, they're not talking about your security. They're not talking about making you safe. They're not talking about making americans safe it has always been national security became the primary directive of government continuity of government and all the rest of stuff right after world war ii ended national security has always been about saving them and letting the rest of us die um you know they got their places, Raven Rock, their underground. Continuity of government is really
Starting point is 01:26:28 what they're talking about with national security. It's not what you think. It's like the education stuff, right? The education department, public schools, it's not about educating people. It's not about teaching Johnny how to read, write, and do arithmetic. No, it's about, it's an instrument of societal control. National security is an alibi for them to make government secret and to spy on you and to do whatever they wish to create any kind of war abroad, any kind of assassination or coup abroad. That's all under the rubric of national security. It's not about your security. It's antithetical.
Starting point is 01:27:08 National security is antithetical to your safety, to your security. It's antithetical to America. So, so far, nobody has joined on to this. Greenland, this is what the bill says that he's introduced i mean this is a real thing this is not the babylon b this is fox news reporting this okay it's really hard to tell even babylon b didn't come up with something this ridiculous quote greenland shall be known as red white and blue land any reference in a law document, paper, or other record of the United States to Greenland shall be deemed to be references to red, white, and blue land. This is almost like a satire of Trump renaming the Gulf of Mexico.
Starting point is 01:28:02 And I imagine Trump will not sign on to this if all it is is about the name if he had put something in there to you know authorize money for the purchase or the bribery of citizens they were there the bill has no co-sponsors as of tuesday evening uh the um but trump wrote in december of 2024 says fox news he, for the purposes of national security and freedom throughout the world, the United States of America feels that the ownership and control of Greenland is an absolute necessity. Because, you know, Trump is the United States of America, right? He didn't do a poll to determine that. No, it's what he thinks. So that's what america is about
Starting point is 01:28:45 at the beginning of february the danish prime minister affirmed that greenland is quote not for sale unquote but said she was open to the u.s increasing its footprint in the arctic region she said i totally agree with the americans that the high north that the arctic region is becoming more and more important when we are talking about defense security and deterrence and it is possible to find a way to ensure stronger footprints in greenland the united states already has is there and they can have more possibilities and again it's not about even uh opposing the russians that right after world war ii ended they had 10 000 people at that base that they still have but they've drawn it down now to 200 from 10,000. It's not an issue of even defense, military defense. She said at the same time, we are willing to scale up from the kingdom of Denmark,
Starting point is 01:29:33 and I think NATO is the same. So if this is about securing our part of the world, we can find a way forward. It'd be interesting if that became a point of division between the U.S. and NATO to get us out of NATO. But when we talk about renaming it, red, white, and blue land, the teeth have come out over the Gulf of America. This is a big ego thing with Trump, a big ego thing with him. When he was holding his um press conference again doubling down on gaza and we're going to kick the people out of there permanently and all the rest
Starting point is 01:30:11 of stuff when he was doing that on air force one on his way to the super bowl after playing golf with tiger woods he's got a big sign off to the side with the only things labeled on there is gulf of america gulf of america yeah there you go show that yeah there he is as he's holding his press conference gulf of america established 2025 it doesn't say that i don't know the fine print there says i can't read it but nevertheless gulf of america he's got that there while he's talking to the press. Well, we had an AP reporter that was barred from the White House over their refusal to use the term Gulf of America. The AP said Tuesday the White House barred its reporter from an event with Trump after the news agency refused to adopt its executive, his executive order, renaming the Gulf of America as the Gulf, the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America. The AP condemned the move as a violation of press freedom, while the White House Correspondents Association called it unacceptable.
Starting point is 01:31:14 The White House Correspondents Association, this is like a trade guild. They also have a say over who's going to show up, be allowed to get into the press room. But, you know, the AP has its style sheets, right? And the AP has done this type of thing as well. They are very zealous about particular terms. They will take the high ground in terms of a debate by labeling things. For example, as I've said over and over again, you are not allowed to talk about somebody's being pro-life. According to the Associated Press,
Starting point is 01:31:50 they must be labeled as anti-abortion rights, or the AP will not pick up your story and propagate it out to other people. So they will essentially shadow ban you, right? You have free speech, but you don't have the reach because the associated press is something that so many news outlets would subscribe to so they said we were informed by the white house that if ap did not align its editorial standards with trump's executive
Starting point is 01:32:17 order renaming the gulf of mexico the gulf of america that ap would be barred from accessing an event in the oval office this afternoon ap's reporter barred from accessing an event in the Oval Office. This afternoon, AP's reporter was blocked from attending an executive order signing. And so they say in their style book, again, they got a style, same place where they say, well, you will refer to people as undocumented migrants. You will not refer to them as illegal aliens. You will not call them anchor babies you'll call them children of undocumented immigrants or whatever right the ap says in
Starting point is 01:32:51 its style book that the gulf of mexico has carried that name for more than 400 years and as a global news agency the ap will refer to it by its original name well you know google maps and Apple programs and stuff, they have looked at it and they said, well, depending on what jurisdiction you're in, if you're in the United States, we will relabel it on the fly as Gulf of America. If you're anywhere else in the world,
Starting point is 01:33:14 we'll call it Gulf of Mexico. But the White House, they said, cannot dictate how news organizations report the news, nor should it penalize working journalists because it is unhappy with their editors' decisions. But isn't that what AP also does? Associated Press does that. The White House would not allow me in, for example.
Starting point is 01:33:34 I had somebody contact me just last week and said, why don't you try to get in on the White House? I said, well, first of all, I can't stay in Washington, D.C. The place has a stench of death about it to me, an oppression. But I said they would never accept me. They'd never accept me. I couldn't get into the press conferences. Even when I was working for InfoWars in 2016 and Alex was doing everything he could to cheer on Trump, they wouldn't let me into washington uh uh press briefing uh his um
Starting point is 01:34:07 his press secretary wonder personally what can you remember what her name is um but um no she was there the whole four four years and uh she wouldn't let us in and so the white house doesn't want me there uh the white House press corps, that guild, they don't want me there. I'm persona non grata there. Even PayPal doesn't want me in. But look, you're not going to get through that. It's censorship all around. And so it is interesting, the way Breitbart put it, they said AP wines.
Starting point is 01:34:42 AP wines. Well, I think they got a legitimate beef, you know, but the White House has done that to everybody. You know, they don't like your reporting. They don't put you in and they can have any arbitrary reasons that they don't like. And the same thing is true of the liberal reporters guild that is there. They don't like you. You don't get in either. Most news organizations, including Reuters, call it the Gulf of Mexico, although where relevant the Reuters style sheet is to indicate the context about Trump's executive order.
Starting point is 01:35:13 In other words, I refer to it like you see people with X. Right. First, it was Twitter now known as X. Then it becomes X, formerly known as Twitter, that type of thing. But, you know, so this is the little war of words. Trump, however, has a plan to build 250 statues of American heroes, as he calls it. And Reason took this on because they don't like the expense. It would be extremely costly and unnecessary, they say.
Starting point is 01:35:41 It would be known as the National Garden of American Heroes. This is the essence of what I see. Like I said, I don't want to go to Washington, D.C. I'll be more than happy if I never get anywhere close to that place again in my life. I can't stand everything about it. It's got all the worst aspects of a large, congested city, combined with all the worst aspects of a large congested city combined with all the worst aspects of a large congested government um but uh when i go to last several times i went to dc i said this place is so
Starting point is 01:36:14 depressing i i can look around i can see statues to washington or to jefferson but it's like a mausoleum where not only have these people died, but the concepts of liberty have died. And the whole thing was like a big cemetery to liberty. Because it doesn't live there anymore. And so I understand why Trump is doing this, of course. It's very important to the left to tear down statues, right? That's why they've been doing it so much black lives matter and other things are going around all over the
Starting point is 01:36:48 place doing it in the uk as well uh throwing statues down destroying them throwing them into the sea as i've said before that's one of the last stages of a successful revolution is you get to tear down all of the markers and monuments to civilization past. And so I understand that this is a reaction to it. They don't really address that and reason. They address the cost. One order Trump signed would prioritize the construction of 250 statues of historical
Starting point is 01:37:19 figures and a garden in which to put them. And I'm sure one of them is going to be Donald Trump, don't you think? He'll be doing his butler pose or something. They've already got a big statue about that, but I'm sure it'll be a reproduction of that statue, maybe on a smaller scale, maybe on a bigger scale. Who knows? But again, D.C. is nothing but a graveyard of liberty and monuments to liberty that has died. And so you know maybe he'll put uh maybe maybe he'll put a a gigantic baphomet goat there and cover it with a hundred dollar bills i don't know whose idea that was but uh you know that would that would fit in there wouldn't it so uh it's exactly this the type of thing that he would do uh guard goldsmith good to see you there guard uh liberty
Starting point is 01:38:04 conspiracy and find him on rockfin and twitter on weekday evenings he says given the wasteful nature of the feds how about changing the name of greenland to wasteland t.s elliott style yeah that's right debt land how about that debt land we we're going to go into even more debt to buy greenland and so we could call it debt land uh audi modern retro radio good to see you audi um i're going to go into even more debt to buy greenland and so we could call it debtland uh audi modern retro radio good to see you audi um i'm going to put together a little side-by-side clip of uh your interview with the guy who does the the james brown impersonations um uh but uh that was an interesting interview and it's good to see you uh it's good good to see you there um with your youtube video um anyway he says uh
Starting point is 01:38:46 there's not a doubt in my mind that the transhuman agenda is the devil and his followers plan to have a blissful eternal life without almighty god it is a fool's errand it absolutely is and it's based on the oldest lie right there at the very beginning of genesis telling adam and eve you will become like god and you'll live forever. Just do what is forbidden. North American House Hippo. The cost to purchase, based on $100,000 per citizen, Greenland could get it for $600 billion.
Starting point is 01:39:18 It's a steal. You don't even have to blow up the buildings. It's already a wasteland, a horrible place to live, a miserable place to live, horrible place to visit, and a miserable place to live. Canada, based on $100,000 per citizen, cost us $4 trillion.
Starting point is 01:39:38 Oh, that's just, you know, we blow through that in just under a year. Mexico, $12 trillion. Just print it. Yeah, that's right. You don't even need to print it. We're not going to have physical cash anymore. That's the other thing.
Starting point is 01:39:53 We talk about the penny. It's also the nickel. The nickel costs twice as much to make as its value. And the response to all that is, so what? I mean, do you use it once and throw it away well maybe you do with the pennies i mean i used to when uh the the boys were young every time we would go to some amusement park or some historical area they would have these penny smashers right and and you'd put it in there and smash it and give them a little metal that was an imprint reminder of where they had been but you generally don't dispose of pennies that way.
Starting point is 01:40:26 So, you know, they typically remain in circulation for quite a number of years. And in the past, we've always addressed this when the metal content became too expensive. And I looked at the mint when I talked about this. The prices have gone up about 25% for the penny for the nickel for the quarter and they've gone up about 25 percent just a little bit under that for the for the dime in just the last year so it is rapidly escalating or maybe what is happening is the dollar is rapidly losing its value.
Starting point is 01:41:07 That's what we need to be concerned about. We keep seeing these real indications of what real inflation are. They have rigged that metric like they do every other metric when they talk about employment, when they talk about COVID cases or bird flu cases or inflation. Everything that they tell you is a lie. And it's an absurd lie, absurd in its totality. And its absurdity is just so far out from what the truth is. And so when we look at this, the question is, is that a real measure of inflation?
Starting point is 01:41:43 The cost of printing the pennies and the nickels and the quarters and the d is, is that a real measure of inflation? The cost of printing the pennies and the nickels and the quarters and the dimes, is that the true cost of inflation? Perhaps it is. You know, they play these types of games by saying, well, we've got computers and look, the prices remain the same, but look at how much faster they are or some other metric like that. Or look at how much more the hard disk drive can hold, and now it's at the same price. So therefore, it's effectively cheaper, and they use that as a game to bring down the rate of inflation. They're lying about that. But always in the past, what did we do?
Starting point is 01:42:20 Well, they stopped making the penny out of pure copper or the dime out of pure silver and so they make them uh as a you know a cheap base metal it's called the basement of the currency and they would make it out of a cheaper metal and put a thin veneer of the other stuff on there and hope that you didn't know the difference and but rather than doing that you know that would be the response if the if they're getting too expensive dude but rather than do that trump has decided that he'll get rid of the penny so on the same basis as people were saying yesterday what other things is he going to get rid of if you get rid of the coins what you're going to be
Starting point is 01:42:58 doing is making it very expensive for people to use paper currency. Now, the paper currency, it might cost, you know, for the lower denominations where they don't do as much anti-counterfeit things, you know, a dollar bill costs way under a dollar to make and so forth. So, they're not even close to the cost that it takes to print those things. But are you going to start rounding stuff up to the cost that it takes to print those things. But are you going to start rounding stuff up to the dollar? If you do, you're not going to want to use cash, right? It's going to be one way to discourage people from using cash. I remain a skeptic, and I remain concerned that this is a first move towards the elimination of cash.
Starting point is 01:43:41 And I'm serious about that. As I said before, I think the analogy is the bump stock. The bump stock in and of itself was not important. Neither is the penny in and of itself, not important. But it's the precedent and establishing us on this path to be able to do gun control by executive order, to be able to say that, well, because it costs too much to print the money, physical money. Well, then let's just stop it and we'll just issue credits. Because that's the way the quantitative easing operated. They didn't print a bunch of bills.
Starting point is 01:44:19 They just put the digital credits on the computer. And I played it when Jerome Powell was talking about that. Well, you're going to print more money. Well, we don't actually print it. We just put credits on the computer. Because I talked about it. I said, you know, try to visualize how much the $3.5 trillion that Trump put in there to assuage people, to move the Overton window towards a universal basic income, to normalize that. You know, $3.5 trillion with that first stimulus check and things like that, CARES Act.
Starting point is 01:44:53 I said, you know, if you were to stack freshly printed $1 bills, you know, they're nice and flat, and you stack them, you could get them as far as to the moon and a good ways back. That's how much that was. So sometimes you use those analogies, the kind of thing. Your intestine is so long that if you were to eat lunch in New York, you could have a bowel movement somewhere in New Jersey or Maryland. I don't know what it is, what it works out with. It's that type of thing.
Starting point is 01:45:23 Just try to visualize that. No, don't try to visualize that. We'll be right back. ¶¶ © BF-WATCH TV 2021 liberty it's your move and now the david knight show i want to take a moment here and thank people who have sent us contributions by mail we talked about uh zell and i'm now behind again on zell uh so we'll do that as well as cash app i'm behind on Cash App. But I want to thank people for these are checks that were sent for the first week of February that we picked up and have now entered, and we've updated the gas gauge. We're about a quarter there.
Starting point is 01:47:35 But I want to thank Russ and Terry P., John W., Christopher M., Mark C., H.D. from North Carolina, Mary N Stacy P Joel B Lloyd P Bruce W Timothy W Heidi W and Marty K. Thank you all so much for supporting us. That's what keeps the program going. And a nice note here from Stacy. As I do the severe cold, I've been very busy fixing things. Therefore I'm behind on my monthly thank you to you so no problem at all i appreciate that support uh please know that i'm so appreciative
Starting point is 01:48:13 of your time and effort to keep us informed uh and i've just included a few feds as well uh so um i've included february's too as well sorry, not feds. I was thinking of referring to a federal fiat currency there. I feel for Karen. Last winter, I went out to take care of the chickens, slipped and broke my nose glasses. Such fun. But the little girls are worth it. The pain wasn't so fun, however.
Starting point is 01:48:40 Yeah, Karen really does enjoy the chickens. And she's missing them now because you can't get out there to them at all. As a matter of fact, when you're talking about slipping on the ice guard, a seasoned veteran of the cold winters in New Hampshire, when I told him what happened, he said, you know, you need to get these things and just kind of slip them over your shoes. And we're going to do that. And basically it's like a tire change for your feet you know it's got some spikes on it
Starting point is 01:49:09 and it's uh rubberized there that that would have made a world of difference so i'm going to take guard's advice there uh it says your whole family travis and his um growing family karen uh said are in my prayers i'm praying for the whole world because something is happening. Perhaps a guard may mention this, but my old 1860 farmhouse had two tremors. The first was not so bad. The second one was worse. The whole house shook. The animals, horses, mules, dogs all felt it. A bit scary. And it just occurred, I said. So, yes. And this is also, I'll read one more here. This is from Martin, Marty from Clifton Park, New York said, thank you for another excellent month and closed is support for February.
Starting point is 01:49:54 I added $5 to acknowledge Whistler's wonderful contribution of the Alfred Hitchcock video, a stellar depiction of his image. And I really do like it. And that was all him uh he did everything he wrote the script uh got the audio together did all the visuals and everything so fantastic job he really got it in the spirit of hitchcock too uh but um dg8 thank you for the tip says david musk is doing a good job of exposing government waste but it's all for nothing whatever is saved will go to fund gazalago that's what they could call it gazalago uh and 500 billion dollar stargate project is all smoke and mirrors well
Starting point is 01:50:32 the stargate project is supposed to be funded by them individually but as elon musk said they don't have the money what trump is going to bring to the party is he going to get regulations away from him which is very telling as i've said before if we want to have economic growth then get the government's boot off of our throat and let us work deregulate deregulation doesn't cost anything and that may be something that might come out of this um you know what doge is doing there it's too soon to tell and i'm going to talk about that first i want to talk about the paris agreement uh but then the next thing i want to talk about is the real fight that is happening you know all of the all the statements about taking up
Starting point is 01:51:17 taking people's resignations and shutting down this agency and that agency, none of that stuff is going to stand if they don't fight in these judicial challenges. That's where the rubber meets the road. It ain't over till it's over. And so we don't really know what is going to happen with that. Just like we don't know the stated policy has changed, the stated policy has changed in terms of the border, in terms of immigration and other things like that. But for practical purposes, the rate of Trump's deportations is less than it was at the beginning of the Obama administration and half what it has been under the Biden administration.
Starting point is 01:52:06 So we'll have to see. The number of crossings has dropped something like 94%. But we saw something similar to that at the beginning of the 2017 Trump administration. And then it picked back up and we started getting caravans. And he didn't do anything to shut the border until he shut it over the fake pandemic. And that was the order that he brought back in order to say, well, we're going to deport people. So they keep that going. As I said, Biden has extended the COVID emergency to December of 2029. So they keep using the COVID fake pandemic as a means of martial law, as a means of getting around the Constitution, as a means of letting them do whatever they please.
Starting point is 01:52:48 And this is a gift from the Republican to the Democrat, from the Democrat to the Republican. They keep passing that thing back and forth. They pass the baton back and forth. It's a tag team match. Sheely A says, America can't even afford to make a penny it's over yeah well like i said yesterday i always said trump made no sense now i've been proven right uh north american house fo when new york city subway opened starting in 1904 the companies were happy to accept a franchise from the city in exchange for keeping the fare at five cents for 50 years.
Starting point is 01:53:26 That's how non-existent inflation was. Those subway companies were nearly bankrupt by the 1940s and the city took over the subway. I didn't know that. That's interesting. Perhaps that explains why the Kingston trio had a big head about the fare increase in Washington and Boston, the MTA.
Starting point is 01:53:45 Remember that? The guy gets on the subway, and he doesn't have the money to pay the full fare. Will he ever return? No, he'll never return, and his fate is still unlearned. He may ride forever beneath the streets of Boston, but the man who never returned. One of my favorite songs. Anyway, three little birds uh the nickel is already the least used coin and will become obsolete pennies and nickels will be worth a dollar each or more
Starting point is 01:54:12 in the collector's market there you go as a matter of fact when i talked about yesterday i talked about uh the silver market and it was an op-ed piece of a guy who was saying, hey, you know, right after, I forget the time frame, but it was, you know, about 10 years or so ago. I think it was right after the recession thing. But he said, we found out that these people that we had silver contracts with, when we wanted to take physical delivery, they couldn't deliver it. And they gave us a runaround. What should have taken five days took nine months to repatriate this stuff. And I read you the ordeal that he went through with all that stuff. And so he said, I think we're going to see that again.
Starting point is 01:54:54 And I think we're going to see it again with gold because we've got these ETFs and this paper silver, paper gold. Tony Arderman and I have talked about that many many times how that doesn't seem to track the spot market very well and so when i talked about that i had a listener who sent me a video of um this guy who's got a youtube channel he calls himself the silver seeker not surfer but seeker and he's a silver collector and sells it and that type of thing. And so I don't know the whole thing. That's the name of his YouTube channel. But he went to this silver show, I guess.
Starting point is 01:55:36 It's kind of like a gun show. People set up their table, and they're selling gold and silver. And so he went around and talked to the different silver dealers before and after the show and um said uh you know so how's it going you know our sales up and everything said we're not selling anything he said people are selling it to us because they need the money because the the economy is bad uh but um you know there was a dichotomy between what was happening in the markets as well as what was happening with silver. I still think silver is more of a, you know, it's less of a, you know, the central banks are not holding silver,
Starting point is 01:56:17 the central banks are holding gold. And so in that sense, I see gold as being a check against the fiat currencies to some degree. And I see it as more tied to the financial services, whereas silver is very heavily tied to commodities. And so it's tied to people using it to make things, solar panels and other things like that. Solar panels use a lot of silver. But that's also going to be dependent on whether or not we're in a recession, like a lot of these different things. And so silver is historically undervalued,
Starting point is 01:56:54 and it could go up really big. But I see it as kind of more susceptible to volatility and other things like that, more like Bitcoin than like gold. But we'll see what happens with it. You know, everybody needs to do their own research to see what is happening with it. But, you know, again, if you want to get gold or silver or even now Bitcoin, Tony can help you at Wise Wolf Gold.
Starting point is 01:57:21 And he's set up DavidKnight.Gold. That'll take you to Wise Wolf Gold. Let him know that you came through us. And you can even start to accumulate this stuff on a regular basis as part of a savings program to start trying to get out of this fiat currency that they're doing everything they can to eliminate. And it also, you know, one of the reasons that you look at the silver stuff is if we collect this stuff for a worst-case scenario,
Starting point is 01:57:47 silver is more amenable to being a currency substitute. When you look at gold, it's a large quantity of value in a small package, and so it's hard to subdivide it in many different ways. That was the advantage of silver that it could be because its value was less it could be used maybe more easily than gold but let's talk about the paris agreement at the center of this mcguffin you take everything from us the paris agreement is now a house of cards ready to be toppled says the daily skeptic out of the uk and i'm sure they would like to see this happen because they have been the victims of this green schemes uh more
Starting point is 01:58:35 than anybody else and as a matter of fact it's the labor government in the uk that is complying with the paris climate accord more than any other country but they're saying only five percent of the countries have delivered climate plans for meeting targets under the paris agreement and so they said only about 10 actually it's 13 this is one article here it was actually 13 out of 195 have submitted plans for the deadline. That means that 83% of the countries, the nations missing the deadline account for 83% of global emissions, I should say.
Starting point is 01:59:16 So they have the report. They've not filed their TPS report. Yeah, could you get that on my desk by later this afternoon and all these different countries are saying no we're not going to do that so each country is required to provide a tps report a stricter plan for cutting greenhouse gas emissions by 2035 including a detailed outline for how the nation plans to achieve its targets the nation's missing the deadline account for 83 percent of global emissions it's not about that at all it's not about the emissions emissions it's about the omissions it's what they want to omit from your life because they want to
Starting point is 01:59:57 measure your energy usage and have dominance trump withdrew the u.s from the agreement upon taking office well no we were never in it you can't get out of something that you were never in he kept us in for the full four years that he was in there the first term and now he's keeping us in for another year but we were never legitimately in it cannot talk about this without talking about that fraud so most countries have missed the deadline china has not confirmed when it will release its report but of course china is not required to do anything why bother to report right india same thing uh india says we're in no hurry why are they in no hurry because china and india
Starting point is 02:00:39 can for much longer do whatever they wish china is building uh putting on line um multiple dirty coal power plants every week they can continue to escalate the use of what the un and the paris climate accord is saying is going to kill the planet they can continue to put this stuff in they don't even have to plateau. Everybody else is supposed to plateau, and now we're in the cutting stage. They're still able to continue to add more of this stuff. So China has not confirmed when it'll release a report. India said we're in, quote, no hurry. Canada and Japan have made their reports public, but they've not submitted them to their masters at the UN. Australia said, we're going to wait till after the elections.
Starting point is 02:01:29 Why would they do that? They don't want the people who are voting to see how they're going to be betrayed by the politicians. So they're going to wait till after the election. The US, Brazil, Switzerland, the UAE plans are not compatible with the Paris Climate Accord, says the UN. However, the UK is compatible. The UK is in compliance with this stuff. It's one of the reasons why UK power prices are four to five times what they are in Germany. And it's why all of the factories in the UK
Starting point is 02:02:05 are being shuttered, because it's about affordable energy and making it unaffordable. And so for our poor friends in the UK, their government is following it to the T and shutting everything down. This is all part of a process that the UN calls review and ratchet.
Starting point is 02:02:28 Oh, that pretty much says it, doesn't it? We're going to ratchet this thing down. Yeah, that's the review and ratchet process. Some countries who have submitted new plans, such as Brazil and Mexico, have actually reduced their ambitions. But the EU says, we can't really comply with this. It's just too stringent. Even the EU is saying that.
Starting point is 02:02:52 But the UK is going to do whatever they can. They're going to kill the farms. They're going to kill the cars. They're going to do everything. Whistler says, it looks like their 83% number doesn't account for nations like China and India that are meeting the non-existent requirements placed on them. That's right. Because that's what the environmentalists have always said.
Starting point is 02:03:11 How can this be about global warming when you let the two biggest emitters go free? The 83% is just nations that aren't playing along. The nations that were supposed to restrict themselves, but they haven't been able to restrict themselves enough. Because if they do, the frogs that are being boiled in the water are going to wake up. Well, we're going to take a quick break, and when we come back, we're going to talk about whether or not these reductions that Musk and Trump are trying to do are really going
Starting point is 02:03:42 to go through. Are they going to stick? Or will the judiciary shut them down? And we see this already happening. It's only been a couple of weeks. And how is their response? Well, they don't have the votes in Congress or the Senate, but they do have, all they need is one judge somewhere. And that one judge can override everything that the president and Congress does. And so they're going to have to take this on, and it's going to be an interesting fight.
Starting point is 02:04:07 And this is a precedent that if they win in order to do something that they want, this will be a big win for all of us. We'll be right back. Good evening. Tonight's tale is a story of paranoia and a most unexpected perpetrator, the common cow,
Starting point is 02:04:24 or more specifically, what comes out the other end. Yes, the air is thick with intrigue, as it seems that in our modern age of propaganda, even a humble bovine's backside can be branded a national security threat. The menace is invisible, silent, yet deadly. Carefully contrived to panic the masses into accepting the government stepping in, jack boots and all, with their solutions.
Starting point is 02:04:57 Because who better to stop a gaseous threat than a bunch of political windbags? But one must wonder, is this truly about saving the planet, or are we simply being led to pasture? Is it merely a MacGuffin? The David Knight show serves as a breath of fresh air for those who still believe that truth can stand up to scrutiny. And he's found that the government narrative smells suspiciously like a load of bull.
Starting point is 02:05:29 So if you want to help others catch wind of the BS being shoveled out of Washington, please consider supporting the show. And now back to our regularly scheduled program. You're listening to The David Knight Show. All right, let's talk about Doge's big challenge. And it's not just the judges. It's the American people. As Reason points out, Americans hate inefficiency, but they love bloated government.
Starting point is 02:06:02 And I've said this for the longest time. It isn't just about making government efficient. You have to take a look at what it is that government is doing. And government is doing a lot of things that government should not be doing. Government is doing a lot of things that are legally bankrupt and will financially bankrupt us as well. And yet Americans, by and large, want that. So the public worries about corruption, worries about bureaucracy, but many of the public want more of the same. And of course, the Democrats don't make any secret about it, but secretly the Republicans are, many of them are of two minds with this stuff.
Starting point is 02:06:42 They are torn between the two. I remember for the longest time, you know, the Tea Party were taxed enough already. Okay, so what do you want to do? Do you want to cut spending? Oh, no, no, no, I don't want to cut spending, the Tea Party. Don't want to cut any bureaucracies. I mean, you know, you talk about getting rid of the IRS
Starting point is 02:06:59 at that point in time, it's like, are you crazy? Or any of the other agencies. You know, I don't want to get rid of the department of education whatever no we're taxed enough already well yeah you they just can't connect the dot they can't go uh connect the dots they can't go full circle to understand what is happening with it and so um reason uh or rather doge said um doge is saving the federal government approximately a billion dollars per day mostly from stopping the hiring of people into unnecessary positions, the deletion of DEI, and stopping improper payments to foreign organizations, all consistent with the president's executive order. A good start, though this number needs to increase to about $3 billion a day.
Starting point is 02:07:50 Well, understand that, you know, we talk about the warfare welfare state. The entitlement spending that is built in, they're not going to touch that. And that's going to be off limits. And the military industrial complex is going to be off limits because a lot of these technocrats are making lots of money off of that as well. And so there really isn't the money to get rid of a trillion dollars or $2 trillion or whatever that's there. Now it is good to eviscerate these agencies because the regulations are killing our economy. And so I do applaud that. I think that's the right thing to do i would like to see the agencies completely gone rather than just cut down and then rebuilt with their people in there because what happens and we've seen this over and over again supreme court justices are the best cases somebody might have a conservative record once they get on the bench though they usually go native they usually turn
Starting point is 02:08:46 into dc liberals there's a few exceptions like clarence thomas and scalia but for the most part they make a hard left turn after they've been there for a short time the trump administration also sent a letter to the majority of the federal government uh government's roughly three million workers the voluntary nature of the plan blunts inevitable complaints from unions about purging the federal government of dedicated career civil servants so that and it also stops the legal challenges on that so if they voluntarily take a payout that's fine but a lot of the people that are taking a payout we're going to be people who are going to leave anyway so it's kind of a bonus for them.
Starting point is 02:09:27 We will have to see what the results will be in the coming months and years. But if it works out, it's a pretty good launch for an administration and its advisory board that are less than two weeks old. Unfortunately, Americans aren't sure where they stand on all this, says Reason. So you've got the public fretting about corruption, inefficiency, red tape, but it wants increased spending and it opposes cuts in government at the same time. So when you look at the media, they're portraying this as a constitutional crisis. And this is all part of their orchestrated campaign to push back. The mainstream media, the left media, will call it a constitutional crisis and the judicial branch
Starting point is 02:10:07 will start shutting this stuff down and that's what we're seeing now and then response to all this cnn says uh the uh their their chief supreme court analyst and this is telling because that's where they're going to take this thing is to the supreme court said as trump team overhauls the government a constitutional crisis looms this is going to be a repeated theme that we see over and over again in the mainstream media on saturday a federal judge temporarily restricted musk's government efficiency team from accessing the treasury department's payment system that covers social security benefits and federal employees salaries among other payments uh well it's not they're not coming after social security uh that's one thing among other payments uh well it's not they're not coming after social security uh that's one thing that is that is clear as a matter of
Starting point is 02:10:50 fact what trump has said is that he's going to remove the taxes from social security which i think is a legitimate thing to do why you know the government gives you social security and the government taketh away social security blessed be that government. But, you know, you pay into this, you get a little out of it anyway. But, you know, they're not going to do anything to Social Security. And I think that they have a moral obligation at this point, not a constitutional obligation. I don't see anything in the Constitution to support the welfare state. The welfare general clause that's there to provide for the general welfare, well, that was handled with the 9th and 10th Amendment. If you don't specifically have powers
Starting point is 02:11:31 delegated to you in the Constitution, specifically, you don't have them. You can't derive them, right? It has to be specifically delegated to you by states or by the people. So there's no constitutional authority for it. However, if they have been taking massive amounts of money from people over their entire life on the promise that they're going to give it out, they have a moral obligation.
Starting point is 02:11:52 Otherwise, it's even more fraudulent than it is. People think they've got an account in Social Security that's a giant Ponzi scheme. But nevertheless, they always will try to portray it as that, because that hits a nerve, and rightfully so. Musk responded by calling the judge corrupt and saying that he needs to be impeached, and he's absolutely right about that. What they don't say with CNN is that this, as I pointed out yesterday, they went judge shopping on Friday night after hours, knowing that this guy was the only one there, you know, as Goat Tree has said. Got to watch out for the holidays when the people who are typically there to do cybersecurity,
Starting point is 02:12:34 run the machines or whatever, they're taking a holiday and they've got the third or fourth string people in there. Maybe somebody's new, somebody's temporary, whatever. That's when they can really pull the stuff over on people. Well, you know, that's what they they did they had this night court judge essentially this engelberger or whatever his name is we'll get to it in a minute here but uh they they found it they knew that he would be there and so he makes a ruling real quickly that night they don't even have anybody from the department of justice to make an argument that
Starting point is 02:13:03 this is a power that the president has. Instead, he makes a ruling for the people who sought him out. And his ruling is so broad that it even prevents the secretary of the treasury from being able to see this data. Now, it's not just the Doge team, but it's the actual secretary of the treasury can't see the treasury information. Musk responded by calling him corrupt. Yes, he is. And saying that he needs to be impeached. Yes, that's absolutely right. And I'm glad to see him saying that, because they need to focus on judicial reform. And you're not going to have any judicial reform unless you're going to throw some of these rascals out. So I say about the January the 6th stuff, you've got to throw some
Starting point is 02:13:42 of these judges out. You've got to impeach them. Maybe put some of them in prison for what they did. Some of the people in the Justice Department, Merrick Garland, for example. If there's no teeth to the rules, nobody's going to obey these rules. And so you need to put the fear of prison in them if they don't have the fear of God to get them to, or the fear of losing their cushy job. Politico playbook said, Donald Trump's stunning disregard for almost every legal norm is hitting crisis point this week as the government suffers multiple defeats in courts across the land. On Monday alone, five different judges around the U.S.
Starting point is 02:14:21 issued temporary blocks on five different trump ordered executive actions per a message last night from political leader legal never before has a new judge clashed with the courts on such a scale and so again they are going if they don't shut down this judicial supremacy if they don't shut down this judicial overreach if they don't shut down this judicial overreach, all this stuff is a moot point. It'll all be shut down. The Washington Post headline, what is a constitutional crisis? And then they said in the article that Trump potentially broke laws by trying to rein in the deep state and cited many legal experts who claim we are in a constitutional crisis. This has now become the echoing term of the establishment media.
Starting point is 02:15:11 Constitutional crisis, constitutional crisis. They know this is going to come down to a fight between the executive and the Supreme Court. And I think the people around Trump know that as well. J.D. Vance has already talked about Andrew Jackson, just as I've talked about him for years. Again, the relocation of the Cherokee, the Supreme Court was for it before they were against it. After they saw how bad the relocation process was, they said, no, we're not going to let you do that. And Andrew Jackson said, well, you've issued your opinion. Let's see you enforce it. And he continued to do what he had the authority to do. It's not to say that the policy was right, but he had the authority to do it. And the Supreme Court, as even Alexander Hamilton, a big statist, a big, you know,
Starting point is 02:15:58 central government power guy, he said, you know, the founders looked at the court system, the judicial branch of government, and said it was the least dangerous because it didn't have any power to enforce anything. Nevertheless, what we have seen is that with Marbury v. Madison, the court gave itself the authority to do constitutional review. We will tell you what is constitutional and what is not constitutional. And at that point, Jefferson said, well, that undoes the entire constitution. So the question is, are we going to get our constitution back? It is a constitutional crisis. Crisis is, you know, the Chinese character for crisis is danger plus opportunity. We have an opportunity here. And the deep state, the bureaucratic entrenched state, the judiciary, which has usurped so much power,
Starting point is 02:16:50 and it's not just them usurping it. It was gladly handed to them by the Congress and by the president, even Trump. Again, going back to the DACA thing. That was an executive order from Obama. He says, I'm going to get rid of DACA. So he issues an executive order. He gets sued, and'm going to get rid of daca so he issues an executive order he gets sued and he says well let's see what the court has to say about it oh
Starting point is 02:17:08 the court says i can't do it okay good i don't have to do it i can use them as an excuse and that's the same reason that the congress has abdicated its authority to the supreme court because they don't have to be held responsible for anything that is unpopular they can campaign on doing the right thing or campaign or even on doing maybe can campaign on doing the right thing or campaign even on doing, maybe it's not even the right thing. Maybe it's just the popular thing. But if it's controversial,
Starting point is 02:17:31 what they can do is they can defer to the court. And then they've got an alibi. And so the question is, are they going to do that this time? You've got Musk saying, impeach that judge. You've got J.D. Vance saying, we've got executive authority here. And these judges don't have any authority in this area. More on that in just a moment.
Starting point is 02:17:54 The Washington Post saying it's a constitutional crisis and saying that Trump has potentially broken law, steamrolled Congress and has a billionaire donor trying to dismantle the U.S. government as his administration taunts the authority of the courts to stop them. And what appears to be a pursuit of some of the most expansive and aggressive presidential power in American history. Well, that brings up a question. All of government, the power of the purse resides with Congress. And they are the ones who initiate and approve all the spending bills. And so the president isn't spending any new money. So he's not usurping that power of the Congress, which is to spend the money. And so that brings up the question, since the executive is a manager, is he obliged to spend all of the money that has been budgeted for these things?
Starting point is 02:18:51 I would say no, right? He's not making new money. I think we've had some of that with Biden and his largesse for Ukraine. But does he have to spend all the money that the Congress has allocated to these various bureaucracies? Or can he say, well, we're not going to do that. We're going to cut it back. Can he do that? I mean, so far, he's not gotten rid of any agencies. He's just reducing the amount of money that they've been spending that has been allocated to them. Seems to me like that's a legitimate constitutional thing to do. The Congress allocates the money, but the executive doesn't have to spend the money that's been allocated to it.
Starting point is 02:19:32 So the New York Times says, although there's no universally accepted definition of a constitutional crisis, Trump has created a constitutional crisis. Well, how do you know that if you don't have a definition for it? I don't know what a constitutional crisis is, but I'll know it when I can't define it, but I'll know it when I see it, just like pornography, right? The judge said about that. ProPublica says that Trump's purge is a crisis that has tested the limits of the presidency. So on CNN, they do have one conservative that they've got there scott jennings and um he said
Starting point is 02:20:08 they said we do have a constitutional crisis and the constitutional crisis is being caused by these judges that's right um and uh north american house hippo says great elon now do the federal reserve yeah hopefully they will. You know, there's talk about doing that. He's mentioned it multiple times, giving Ron Paul the ability to audit the Fed. That'll be an interesting thing if that happens. That would be great. Anyway, he says, he called this a continuation of the lawfare against Trump.
Starting point is 02:20:43 Scott Jennings, a political contributor on cnn said let me read the tweet just so the people understand this is a tweet from jd vance i said jd vance is pushing back on this he's talked about andrew jackson and then he said this he wrote this on sunday he says if a judge tried to tell a general how to conduct a military operation, that would be illegal. If a judge tried to command the attorney general on how to use her discretion as a prosecutor, that is also illegal. Judges aren't allowed to control the executive's legitimate power. That's what J.D. Vance said.
Starting point is 02:21:23 He said the word legitimate is doing a lot of work here. But we do know that judges do get to say whether the executive is complying with the law or not. That's been the case for decades, hundreds of years. But still, the judiciary is micromanaging things. That's the point that J.D. Vance is making. And he's absolutely right about that. And he was very well stated a very articulate argument here he says there's a difference between saying whether you're complying
Starting point is 02:21:52 with the law and then you have these individual district court judges setting effectively setting broad federal policy that is specifically reserved for the president of the United States. I think we do have a constitutional crisis, and it's being caused by these judges. They're not here to tell us how to spend the money. They're not here to set broad federal policy, he said. That's Scott Jennings at CNN, referring to the tweet that was put out by J.D. Vance. Judges don't get to tell a general how to conduct a military operation. at CNN, referring to the tweet that was put out by J.D. Vance. Judges don't get to tell a general how to conduct a military operation. They don't get to tell the attorney general how to use her powers as a prosecutor.
Starting point is 02:22:40 And they don't have the ability to tell the executive how to be an executive. And I don't think that they have the ability to command that money that has been allocated by the Congress be spent. You don't have to spend all that money. I mean, every year you look at these, you know, you look at schools and stuff, they got their, we're at the end of the year. You know, so we got money left over, spend it all. Because if you don't spend it, they're going to reduce our budget next year. They're going to say, hey, you didn't need all that money. We're not going to allocate it to you so spend all the money that you still got left over that kind of nonsense these judges are supposed to be setting discrete settling discrete and specific matters not setting policy he said i think vance is right
Starting point is 02:23:20 and so i hope that trump will fight it this time. He didn't do it last time. It looks like Vance is up for it. It looks like Musk is up for it. And I think that would be a very good precedent. He'd be setting a precedent and it'd be a good one for a change. He set a lot of really bad precedents. And so we look at these judicial orders. We've got judges ordering that the CDC, the FDA, and other agencies have to restore these DEI pages. Now, that's the kind of micromanagement, the kind of detail management that they don't have any authority to do, but it's being done by district court judges setting policy for the entire country. A federal judge on Tuesday
Starting point is 02:24:01 yesterday ordered U.S. health agencies, such as the CDC and the FDA, to restore data and web pages that were taken down in recent days. He ordered them to comply with a Trump administration order on gender ideology and diversity rules. So they said, take down your DEI pages. And they took them down. But then they went to a judge and the judge said, no, you got to put them back up. Who are you? Who are you? This is not your purview.
Starting point is 02:24:32 U.S. District Judge John Bates. I can make a joke here, but I won't. He included for the health disparities among LGBT youth is one of the pages. Another page was interim clinical considerations for use of vaccine for impacts prevention, uh, fast facts, HIV and transgender people, HIV data pages,
Starting point is 02:24:57 and the page for the U S global HIV program called PEPFAR. No, they're focusing on HIViv quite a bit quite a bit in the uk as a matter of fact they want to institute they had an hiv day and again this goes back to the first abuse of the pcr remember that carrie mullis, who got the Nobel Prize for producing the PCR thing, said you can't use it for diagnostic purposes. He says, I'm not going to take a position as to whether or not AIDS is caused by a virus, HIV. I'm not going to take a position on that. Other people did. But he says, I will say that you can't use a PCR test to determine as a diagnostic.
Starting point is 02:25:45 You can't use a PCR test to say that HIV causes AIDS. But that's precisely what Fauci did. And I think that's precisely why Kerry Mullis died a few months before they ran off this second thing, using the PCR test now for everything, COVID and all the rest of this. As soon as he died, they used that. Maybe they killed him killed him i don't know i wouldn't put it past him look they killed tens of millions of people with that shot you don't think they would kill some person who's going to blow the lid on the fraud of this stuff and he pushed out pretty bad pretty heavily against fauci on the hiv thing but now you've got Keir Starmer in the UK talking about HIV. We've got
Starting point is 02:26:30 HIV day, and we're going to have HIV tests given out to everybody, you know, like they did with a COVID test. Here's Keir Starmer. I did an HIV test. It's really simple. It's really painless. The test can be sent drwy'r post. Mae'n wythnos testio yn dda, felly mae'n ffri. Mae'n llythyr iawn, dim ond ychydig o'r pwynt o'r pwynt, ychydig o'r blwyd, mae'n mynd i mewn i'r capswl, a'r ddwy ffluid cymysgedd eraill yn cael eu testio. Mae'n hawdd iawn iawn i'w wneud, iawn iawn iawn iawn. Mae'n bwysig iawn i'w wneud o do it because there's just under 5,000 people
Starting point is 02:27:06 who have got HIV but don't know. I found out today that I'm the first Prime Minister to... Well, how do you know they've got it? It's not about me. I'm surprised. But I would just encourage other leaders, community leaders, those that can reach right into different groups within our communities, do the test yourself, show other people, talk it through explain um because you know we have to try and make sure just as many people as possible do you get tested yeah we've got 5 000 people who haven't don't know it well how do you know they've got it you haven't even claimed to have a pcr test on them but as that is coming out a lot of people
Starting point is 02:27:43 have played this clip where they're bragging about how they used hiv and the trump shots before the virus meets our cells is what triggers the most protective antibody response so keith must make the spike protein in the lab locking it into exactly the same shape by adding another protein that acts a bit like a clamp. This is all fiction, by the way. And that protein is a tiny fragment of HIV. Well, whatever they're putting in there, they're then testing for it, right? And they're using all these lies about COVID and all the rest of this stuff.
Starting point is 02:28:22 They've got their own political agenda for that. So, yeah, again, a lot of these pages hiv hiv hiv uh the cdc page that had the title safer food choices for pregnant people was renamed safer food choices for pregnant women oh judge doesn't like that either. When the previous version of the CDC page is accessed, it displays a message saying that it's moved to the one referencing women because only women can get pregnant. This is a judge that has inserted himself into this. The CDC displays a message on all of its web pages now that reads cdc's website is being modified to comply with president trump's executive order so now i guess maybe what they'll do is modify their website to say that cdc's website is now being modified to comply with the judicial orders of a u.s district judge because that's now what is really happening.
Starting point is 02:29:31 He's put himself, that's why I talk about judicial supremacy, and it must be destroyed. Hopefully, this clash will destroy it. We'll see. But again, these people, the CDC, the FDA, all these other people, these health organizations, they had no problem at all with Trump's executive order of March the 13th, 2020. They were fine with that. They don't like his executive order taking off all the tranny stuff. But it's going to come down to a fight with the courts. Appeals court rejects Trump's administration bid to immediately reinstate a funding freeze.
Starting point is 02:30:04 Who are they? GOP Representative Crane has now drafted an impeachment article on the judge who blocked Doge from accessing the Treasury information and, as I said before, even blocked the Treasury Secretary. That's the arrogance of these judges. And so I'm glad to see it eli crane called judge ingall mayor's actions judicial overreach and he does need to be impeached i hope they do meanwhile we got elizabeth warren lion liz who says only congress can shut agencies down not trump or musk she's worried about her frankenstein child the consumer financial protection board cfpb and uh she says uh she went on with rachel maddow and she said warren said
Starting point is 02:30:55 only congress not donald trump not elon musk not some 22 year old programmer uh eat your heart out liz he's a lot smarter than you are uh only congress can shut this agency down but here's the trick on that when you notice none of the republicans are oh yeah they know you know beat on their chest and they're big manly guys yeah it's about men versus women isn't it liz yeah uh and they keep putting in these bills to say let's shut down the consumer agency but they don't actually want a real vote on that now let's stop and talk about this agency that was created by elizabeth warren and i think barney frank had something to do with it but it's her child her baby she's upset about this i played the clip for you yesterday which is that you know
Starting point is 02:31:41 they've uncovered uh fraudulent claims and stuff like that well you know, they've uncovered fraudulent claims and stuff like that. Well, you know, we always had courts where people could sue things, but, you know, they're for the consumer. Well, no, they shut down over a period of about four or five years. It was about 150 banks a year were going under because of the new regulations. And they were the small and medium-sized banks. The big banks could handle it.
Starting point is 02:32:03 You know, it's government regulations, as one person says, it's kind of like a spider's web. It catches the small gnats and flies, but the big bumblebees go straight through it. Well, that's the way it was with the big banks and her Consumer Financial Protection Board. The regulations were just blown right through with these other guys, but it trapped and killed all of the small and medium-sized companies. But let's talk about this idea that only Congress can shut this stuff down. When Elizabeth Warren created this thing with her legislation, they specifically put the Consumer Financial Protection Board out of the reach of Congress. They made them funded by the Federal Reserve instead of funded by Congress because that's how Congress exercises control.
Starting point is 02:32:53 Congress could defund, Congress could kill any of these agencies by defunding them. Instead, what they did was they gave the IRS seven times with Republicans in charge, gave Mike Johnson, gave them seven times what their current budget is. Grew them by 700% or whatever. That's just inexcusable. But the Congress could go the other way, right?
Starting point is 02:33:21 They could cut the budget of one of these things because they are the ones who control the purse strings. So that's how congressional control is exercised. Elizabeth Warren is saying, well, Congress needs to control this. Well, that's through the money that is allocated. But she short-circuited congressional control because, and she did it deliberately because she knew how this was going to be used. And so what she did was she funded it from the Federal Reserve, not even from the Treasury Department. Funded it from the Federal Reserve to get it out of the control of Congress. She designed this thing to short-circuit the control of Congress, and now she's whining that Trump and Musk are shutting it down.
Starting point is 02:33:59 What a liar. She said, you know, they tried to shut this down through the courts. And you know what the Supreme Court of the U.S. said? Not once, but twice. They said the thing is perfectly constitutional. Supreme Court gets things wrong all the time. All the time. Yet, it's going to go forward.
Starting point is 02:34:17 If you want to change it, you've got to go back to Congress, she said. Or maybe you've got to go to the Federal Reserve to see what's going on with all this stuff like they've been so far detached from the constitution that we've all we've got all kinds of you know dodges and cover-ups and secret agreements and all the rest of the stuff all over the place and have been there for a while she said also said warren did she said the current fdic staffing shortages threaten the safety and the soundness of the banking system. Well, the soundness and the safety of the banking system were threatened by the lockdowns that she supported. As Gerald Salenti has said,
Starting point is 02:35:00 it's the commercial real estate crisis that's about to unfold, could be unfolding soon. You know, five years since all this stuff was shut down, a lot of these agreements are coming up for renegotiation in terms of evaluating the loss. But of course, the lockdown cleared out the cities, cleared out the people working in the office buildings, and it is creating a commercial real estate crisis, which the banks are heavily involved in. And if the commercial real estate collapses, it'll pull the banks down with it. Gerald Salenti is exactly right about that. He's been saying that for five years. So she cheered this lockdown.
Starting point is 02:35:40 She pushed for the lockdown. If the banks fail, the safety and soundness of the banking system is threatened by the lockdown that she and the Republicans did, right? Democrats and Republicans did that. The FDIC is simply an insurance corporation. Now, she's saying that they need to be able to do evaluations of banks, and it threatens the stability of the banking system. Well, it was people like Elizabeth Warren and the policies that she was about, which remember we had those three banks that failed. One of them was not insolvent. It paid off 100%.
Starting point is 02:36:16 It was shut down because it was handling crypto and because Elizabeth Warren and the Democrats wanted to make crypto illegal, they forced the shutdown of that bank, which was completely solvent. So you want to talk about the safety and the soundness of the banking system? These technocrats, these Democrats that are out there. It's just unbelievable. Well, E. Pigeon VII says, Elon Musk and Twitter will have all the fbi backgrounds of the entire federal government yeah i know and and we're going to talk about that next we're going to talk about
Starting point is 02:36:53 the fact that musk says that he's not going to start looking at some of these bureaucrats and politicians so you know they make thousands of dollars and they wind up with net worths that are in the millions of dollars. How does that happen? Are they really good investors, you know, like Nancy Pelosi? Or are they gaming the system? Now, I'm in favor of that for people who have government jobs. I think they ought to be held to a higher standard, financially as well.
Starting point is 02:37:21 But I'm very concerned because all this money that's going into the IRS, it's not all going into armed agents. It's going into something that's far more dangerous, artificial intelligence. And they're going to be using that to audit everybody in the same way that he is going to be auditing some of these people there. This, to me, seems like another prelude. I think people are going to say, well, it's too soon to say that. No, I don't know. I mean, you look at where these people are going, right? It's just like with a penny.
Starting point is 02:37:53 I see that same type of thing coming along. Artificial intelligence grabbing everybody's data, auditing everybody on the spur of the moment. I mean, this could be a real tyrannical government because that's the purpose of the income tax. If they wanted to just raise money, as I said before, they would have done a VAT or something like that, some kind of a tax that they add at every level when something changes. But that doesn't give the American government the kind of insight into people's lives that allows them to come after you.
Starting point is 02:38:27 You don't sign that paperwork and incriminate yourself. Well, they're going to come after you for that. You've got to sign that piece of paper. You've got to report all this stuff and say that it's all true. And then that gives them leverage over you. That's what it's ultimately about. It's not even about the money. They don't care about the money.
Starting point is 02:38:43 They don't care if the budget is balanced. The Democrats don't care. Trump doesn't care. He wants the ceiling off for another two years. The Democrats say, well, deficits don't matter at all, period. But what matters is that they get a financial statement from you that they can come after you for. Jason Barker, CDC and NIH websites have several links that go nowhere now. I've been having issues getting the stuff that I used to be able to access.
Starting point is 02:39:08 I have been experiencing it for months. So it's not a Trump program thing. They are burying data. Well, there you go. Okay. Yeah. They always, that's, that's the key. They want to hide what you see.
Starting point is 02:39:22 We are all dead says the easiest way to start actually fighting would be to nationalize the central banks you could in theory do that with a stroke of a pen and then move off of fiat but the central banks are their center of power that's right that's right and um you know you do that type of thing and Andrew Jackson did, and somebody shows up to shoot him at point-blank range. And the gun misfired, and Andrew Jackson beat him severely with his cane at the time. And it was funny, you know, 100 years later or whatever it was, 100, 150 years later, they took the gun out of the case and pulled the trigger and it fired right away. Interesting story. Cecilia 14.
Starting point is 02:40:17 David, I know off the subject, but please be the only one to bring up East Palestine, Ohio. Trump is not helping them. And Vance went only for the photo op. That's right. It's in Ohio where Vance is from. You would think they would do something about it. Isn't it interesting how they have given short shrift? It's not a priority for them either.
Starting point is 02:40:38 I mean, I know that finally for the first time in Western North Carolina, they've got the Army Corps of engineers there and they're pulling out as i pointed out yesterday they're pulling out smashed up cars that were in the river they're getting them out they're getting a lot of debris out of the river they've got the department of transportation is there now the federal guys are also there along with the corps of engineers even though fema's not doing anything you've got department of transportation you've got army corps of engineers that are helping them. They said they should be able to get Interstate 40 up and working next week.
Starting point is 02:41:11 But I don't know. I mean, you know, it is amazing that Joe Biden didn't lift a finger to help anybody, not in Palestine, Ohio, certainly not in Western North Carolina, and not in palestine ohio certainly not in western north carolina and not in california and um of course not in maui either really and so the question is uh is trump gonna do anything about trump is so focused on what's going on with israel that he can't be bothered with what's going on in america they really don't care about the people in ohio at all and they are getting completely ignored and um and it's a it's a small uh small town small group of people and that's part of the problem you know you get attention and then the next thing happens and everybody
Starting point is 02:42:00 focuses on that unless they bring that back and start complaining about it. You know, the North Carolina thing is a much larger area. But, again, they just ignored it for four months. Now, finally, something is being done. But I think they could do even more than they're doing now, if they had the kind of priority that he has for Gaza. So we're going to take a quick break. And when we come back, we're going to talk a little bit about the audits, and then we're going to get into Gaza as well. Hopefully, we'll have some time for that.
Starting point is 02:42:29 We will be right back. Here's a little song I wrote. You might want to hear it in your pod. You'll owe nothing, and be happy. Ain't got no cash, ain't got no car, but 24 booster shots in your arm. Owe nothing, be happy. You can't even buy shit in the store, because of your low social credit score. Oh nothing, be happy. You will own nothing.
Starting point is 02:43:27 And be happy. Be happy and eat some bugs. 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. of these traitors. Making sense common again. This is The David Knight Show. Well, HiBoost says,
Starting point is 02:43:54 remember when Musk bought Twitter and he dropped all the internals of the government colluding with Twitter over the election fraud and over COVID and what happened? He said nothing. That's right. A lot of this is being put in there for self-aggrandizement, for PR, and for leverage over politicians. The politicians are scared to
Starting point is 02:44:12 death of him now, and for good reason, I think, because he can expose a lot of information about them. Will anything happen? I don't think so. And so that is the question. Are they going to fight? If they wanted to actually make this stuff happen, question are they going to fight will they you know if they wanted to actually make this stuff happen they would actually have to fight the judiciary and re-establish the constitution and even if they lose in the supreme court say so what you made your decision let's see you enforce it we're going to shut this down i have the authority these people are all underneath me i don't think they're going to do that though that's why i say you know when you look at what is happening the the all the stuff the border stuff
Starting point is 02:44:46 sorry i had to sneeze there all the border stuff deportations or anything that's all right now that's just a pr campaign it's not happening it's not even happening at the level that it was happening under biden it's total baloney but let's take a look at what was said elon musk vows to root out the highest paid corrupt dc bureaucrats as he stuns america alongside trump says the daily mail we did find it sort of odd that you know there's quite a few people in the bureaucracy who have ostensibly a salary of a few hundred thousand dollars but somehow managed to acquire tens of millions of dollars in net worth while in that position which is what happened in usa id so we're just curious as to where that came from he said maybe they're really good at investing in which case we should take their investment advice perhaps
Starting point is 02:45:42 you should follow nancy pelosi's husband and there was somebody who actually did that to show you know where they are investing which is doing insider trading uh trump rubber stamped what musk was up to telling reporters we don't want an unsuccessful guy doing this and i fully expect said musk to be scrutinized and to get a daily proctology exam, basically. Might as well just camp out there. So he's saying all this, not on Twitter, but he's saying it from the Oval Office, as you saw the pictures there. He and his young son are there in the Oval Office. His son is named X. X.
Starting point is 02:46:24 He's got an obsession with that, doesn't he? Musk scoffed when asked about his detractors. He said the American people voted for these cuts. He says, I have detractors? I don't believe it, he said. Well, first of all, you couldn't ask for a stronger mandate from the public. The public voted. A majority of the public voted for President Trump, he said.
Starting point is 02:46:42 White House Press Secretary Caroline Le levitt had claimed that doge unearthed 50 million dollars being spent on condoms headed to gaza trump added that to that by suggesting that hamas fighters were using those condoms to create bombs population bomb anti-population bomb i guess that in the past Hamas had used condoms, balloons, and other inflatables to set fire to Israeli farmland. Maybe it was really about trying to give them $50 million worth of condoms for a depopulation movement. We've been known to have things like that.
Starting point is 02:47:22 What do we call it here in America? Oh, yeah, we've got Planned Parenthood have things like that what do we call it here oh yeah you got uh planned parenthood things like that uh but on tuesday musk conceded that the 50 million dollar condom story about gaza was inaccurate he says first of all some of the things that i say will be incorrect and some should be and and should be corrected so nobody's going to bat a thousand he said i'm not sure why we would be sending 50 million dollars in condoms anywhere frankly i'm not sure that's something that Americans would really be excited about. But they are claiming that they have slashed over $100 million in DEI funding at the education department. Now, are we going to have a judge somewhere that says you can't do that?
Starting point is 02:48:01 You've got to fund that. Again, that's ridiculous. This is where the fight needs to be had uh and again i i don't i don't trust musk i don't trust trump to do this stuff but um whistler says if you think the condoms are giving the palestinians are dangerous weapons wait till you see what we're giving the people killing the palestinians there's a different there's a much more powerful bomb yeah as i pointed out yesterday that that uh satirical clip of of the trump hotel has got way more than 18 holes out there uh that he builds it right there in the
Starting point is 02:48:38 center of gaza one program reportedly told educators to, quote, help students recognize areas of privilege and power. Well, okay, that's fine. This stuff has been coming from the Department of Education. They hand out the money. They hand out the curriculum. And it's always been about that. You go back to the No Child Left Behind stuff that was being sold by George W. Bush. They've had one reprehensible set of curriculum after the other,
Starting point is 02:49:06 and they push that stuff out, and it becomes a standard even for private schools and church schools. They'll still teach that standard. So if you set the curriculum, you can set it. And if you send the money, you can set the curriculum. So you send the money, then you can set the curriculum. You set the curriculum. You determine what's going to be taught.
Starting point is 02:49:24 People are going to teach to that because that's what's going to be tested and other things like that. But you're still going to, even if they stop the funding of this, this has been going on for a couple of generations now. So even if they stop the funding of it, even if you have prohibition of them teaching it, even if you have state prohibition of it being taught, even if it comes down to the level of the principal, guess what? These teachers have defiantly said in Texas and elsewhere, we're going to continue to
Starting point is 02:49:52 teach it. I'm in control of my classroom, and they are. That's where the rubber meets the road. And so if these people believe this stuff, if they're thoroughly indoctrinated in it, as they are, after having gone through the schools and then go through the college and get their teaching degree in college and then they come back into the school and so forth this recycling has created this filth and it isn't going to go away with just some prohibitions in some places doge announced the termination of 89 department of education contracts totaling $881 million and a post on Monday night.
Starting point is 02:50:27 Of the nearly $1 billion, Doge identified $101 million that was being used for DEI training, including teaching educators to, quote, help students understand and interrogate the complex histories involved in oppression and to help students recognize areas of privilege and power on an individual and collective basis that's just simply marxism your tax dollars are being spent on this said musk when he commented on that and um nikki neely founder and president of Parents Defending Education, said, DEI was never about equity. It was about enforcing ideological conformity and institutionalizing discrimination. It was about Marxism.
Starting point is 02:51:14 It was about racism. It was about struggle sessions. Denounce yourself. Be anti-racist. It's not enough to not be racist. You have to be anti-racist, and you have to be anti-racist it's not enough to not be racist you have to be anti-racist and you have to be anti-racist against yourself that's a classic uh struggle session from communism but look if you're going to be defending parents defending education if you want to defend education you've
Starting point is 02:51:37 got to do it yourself there's no other way to do it no other way it's even If you even do it in a charter school or a private school, you still have to know what is happening there. I mean, I just talked about a guy who has $235,000 in fines, and he's had 500 days in prison. He was a teacher at a Christian school, and they were demanding that he use pronouns, and he refused to do that because he is a christian school wasn't christian but he was so you never know what's going to be in any of these schools you have to assess that out yourself and you really need to do the teaching yourself it's the easiest way to do it it's the only way to be certain that it's going to be done that way but look this is a purpose of all government schooling. It was a stated purpose.
Starting point is 02:52:28 You know, I had Alex Newman on to talk about that. He wrote a book about the history of this going back to the 1800s. People like Horace Mann and Thomas Dewey and so forth. They were always focused on the school as an institution of social engineering. This has always been the purpose of the schools. And folks, it is the purpose of the private schools as well. So Trump and Musk said they went through, they found people who were 150 years old getting social security payments. Well, that's good. And they should not be getting those. It's obviously fraud.
Starting point is 02:53:04 They're not getting those payments. Somebody else fraud. They're not getting those payments. Somebody else is. It's not 150 years old. But this is kind of a harbinger. As they put this out and everybody cheers that this is a harbinger of artificial intelligence doing auditing. Not just of their books and not just of the bureaucrats who become multimillionaires. I think that stuff ought to be audited. And I think if somebody is going to be working for the government or they're going to be
Starting point is 02:53:30 a politician or whatever, they need to be held to a higher standard. Of course, they're held to a lesser standard. Nancy Pelosi and others have made it legitimate for them to do insider trading. And the people who are their staff members can also legally do insider trading. I don't know how far that extends out away from Congress and its staffers if it extends out to other people in the bureaucracy. But that ought to be looked at more carefully. If you're going to take a job like that, that ought to come along with a job. But do you really want the income tax to have AI auditors of everything that you want to do?
Starting point is 02:54:07 Because that's what's coming. That's what this sevenfold increase in the budget is about. That's what this is preparing everybody for. So that's the bad side of this. We can cheer getting rid of the waste, fraud, abuse, and corruption. But understand that's not where this ends. This is preparation and precedent for what is coming. We're going to take a quick break, and we will be right back.
Starting point is 02:54:37 Excellencies, ladies and gentlemen, your annual global risk report makes for a stunning and sobering read. For the global business community, the top concern for the next two years is not conflict or climate. It is disinformation and misinformation followed closely by polarization within our societies. In a world of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. You are listening to The David Knight Show. All right, welcome back.
Starting point is 02:55:34 Let's talk a little bit about Gaza. And I just happened to have, that was next on the list, but I just had a comment here from Ben Miller. He said, did DK say the other day that Gaza is 18% Christian? I looked it up and found there's just a few hundred Christians in Gaza. Well, I don't know which is true. Quite frankly, what I was doing, I was reading somebody's comment. That wasn't something that I even read off of an article. That was something that a comment that somebody put up. So I don't know if their comment is right or your
Starting point is 02:56:00 comment is right. People are welcome to do their own research the question is though um is it uh is it okay to do it if they're not christian is it okay to do it if they're not jewish or do they have uh rights as individuals for what is being done there that's the real question uh colonel mcgregor says the gaza plan from trump reveals that he's not a free actor, but simply a puppet of Netanyahu. He said Trump's plan for Gaza represents a callous disregard for human life, regardless of what religion they have. And a complete lack of respect for the people who live in that region. And we've kind of seen that when he talks about Greenland, Panama and Canada, right? Yeah, you can't. Canadians are nothing.
Starting point is 02:56:45 We're going to take your country in that time. I was surprised, said McGregor, at the callous disregard for human life and Trump's plan. The idea that somehow or another, mystically, magically, we're going to remove over a million human beings. We're going to erase the place where they're from and their country and their heritage and establish an international beach resort on their land he said that was just incredible secondly he said the author and foreign policy consultant expressed dismay just reading this article from life site they expressed dismay that trump quote did not have his national security advisor at least contact many of
Starting point is 02:57:25 the leaders in the Middle East throughout the Islamic world and ask them their opinion on this proposal. As it turns out, he didn't do that. So first demonstrating a callous disregard for life, a complete lack of respect for the people that live in the region. But it was also incomprehensible that you would say something like this publicly without first establishing whether or not it made any sense. He said no one will support it. Saudi Arabia has made that clear.
Starting point is 02:57:55 Egypt has made that clear. Jordan, etc. Everyone has come down and said this is outrageous. And now he looks foolish as well as not very smart. Let's be frank, he said. Trump is really in many ways a prisoner of his large donors, including the likes of Jewish Zionist Miriam Adelson. Or, you know, you could also gave him $100 million.
Starting point is 02:58:16 But look at Elon Musk gave him $250 to $300 million. He is captive of his large donors. And I played for you yesterday, the debate back in 2016, where he's going back and forth with Jeb Bush. And he says, Jeb Bush, you're owned by your donors. I'm not. I'm not beholden to anybody and all the rest of this stuff, right? Well, now he is. He absolutely is anyway he says uh zionist uh miriam adelson
Starting point is 02:58:48 last year gave him 100 million dollars on the condition that he would allow israel to annex the annex the west bank and effectively destroy the occupied territory in a similar way to gaza trump made these promises said mcgregor they sent their money in and now he has his closest advisors the people around him consist of people that are very close to these donors and they're reminding him of his obligations he said ronald reagan was faced with such a crisis at one point he had to distance himself from these donors and focus on governing in the best interest for the nation. He suggested that Trump do likewise. But he said Netanyahu is predicting, is practicing American foreign policy through ventriloquy,
Starting point is 02:59:33 he said. Trump is just his puppet. And he said that Netanyahu was there as Trump was putting out this absurd idea of owning it, and he's continued with it. I mean, even the people in his staff, remember the pictures of Susie Wilde, like, what is he doing? The White House pulling back and said, this is just a temporary thing, right? Love it, saying that, White House press secretary. No, he's made it very clear now. He's come back multiple times saying it's going to be permanent. He says Netanyahu is grinning like the proverbial Cheshire cat in delight. And so now as Israel is expanding even into South Syria, there is a state of panic going out throughout Syria. But let's take a look at what Trump had to say about taking Gaza.
Starting point is 03:00:30 Yet again, when he was meeting with the King of Jordan, who came to the White House with him, he says it yet again. We're going to take Gaza. Mr. President, you said before that the U.S. would buy Gaza, and today you just said we're not going to buy Gaza. We're not going to have to buy. We're going to have Gaza. We don't going to have to buy. We're going to have Gaza. We don't have to buy.
Starting point is 03:00:47 There's nothing to buy. Not going to pay anybody. What is that? No reason to buy. There is nothing to buy. It's Gaza. It's a war-torn area. We're going to take it.
Starting point is 03:00:59 We're going to hold it. We're going to cherish it. We're going to get it going eventually where it's going to be created for the people in the Middle East. It's going to be for the people in the Middle East. But I think it could be a diamond. It could be an absolute tremendous asset for the Middle East. And you're going to have peace. It's going to bring peace in the Middle East.
Starting point is 03:01:19 Gaza, the way it is right now, every 10 years you're going to have the same thing happening. I've watched it so long, all the death and destruction of gaza the civilization's been wiped out in gaza now it's going to be a tremendous thing it's uh it's front who did that who did all that stuff right uh a civilization has been wiped out all this death and destruction is kind of like this a passive sense that he had about COVID. Look at what COVID did to us. I don't know how this happened. It happened because of your actions.
Starting point is 03:01:53 A civilization has been wiped out because of Israel's actions. All this death and destruction. It's just awful. There's nothing there. There's nobody that we need to pay. I'm just going to take it. Who are you going to pay? I'm not paying anybody. I'm just going to take it. There's nothing there. They bombed
Starting point is 03:02:09 everything out and it's all fine. Thanks for listening. Have a good day. Hello, it's me, Volodymyr Zelensky. I'm so tired of wearing these same t-shirts everywhere for years. You'd think with all the billions, I've skimmed off America. I could dress better. And I could, if only David Knight would send me one of his beautiful grey MacGuffin hoodies or a new black t-shirt
Starting point is 03:02:35 with the MacGuffin logo in blue. But he told me to get lost. Maybe one of you American suckers can buy me some at the David Knight show dot com. You should be able to buy me several hundred. Those amazing sand-colored microphone hoodies are so beautiful. I'd wear something other than green military cosplay to my various galas and social events. If you want to save on shipping, just put it in the next package of bombs and missiles coming from the USA.
