The David Knight Show - Wed Episode #2055: Alligator Alcatraz: ICE Builds Mega-Prison in the Florida Swamp

Episode Date: July 16, 2025

01:05:15 – 01:17:40ICE Imprisons Irish Man After Medical Visa OverstayAn Irish tourist overstays his visa by 3 days due to injury and ends up in ICE detention for over 100 days, enduring inhumane co...nditions, language barriers, and confusion. Bureaucracy, cruelty, and lack of due process are exposed, with DHS and private prison contractors refusing to comment. 01:25:20 – 01:33:18“Alligator Alcatraz”: Florida’s High-Tech Migrant Detention FacilityA massive, remote ICE detention center opens in the Everglades. Officials boast of natural barriers (like pythons and alligators), but critics cite rising costs, humanitarian risks, and logistical failures—warning it mirrors the original Alcatraz’s downfall. 02:02:05 – 02:04:05Debate Over State vs. Federal Immigration AuthorityCommenters argue whether states should independently control immigration. Some fear liberal states abusing that power, while others say the federal government’s track record proves it's unfit to manage it at all. 02:05:00 – 02:06:05ICE’s Expansion Will Eventually Target AmericansEven if ICE succeeds in its immigration goals, the host warns its surveillance apparatus and militarized control will be redirected toward domestic populations. 02:06:20 – 02:06:42Evangelical Leader John MacArthur Dies at 86MacArthur’s death is noted, marking the end of a major chapter in American conservative Christianity. 02:20:35 – 02:29:57Newborn Dumped in Dumpster: Heartbreaking Rescue and Abortion ParallelsA Nevada mother is arrested after abandoning her newborn in a dumpster. The host expresses moral outrage and argues that had the act occurred hours earlier in a Planned Parenthood, it would be considered legal. He condemns the double standard and calls it a demonic disregard for life. 02:30:01 – 02:31:45New Superman Film Surprises with Traditional ThemesA new Superman movie is praised for avoiding woke messaging and affirming adoption and real fatherhood. Despite the director’s earlier comments about immigration metaphors, the final product appears refreshingly apolitical. 03:05:28 – 03:06:00Trump DOJ and EPA Appeal Fluoride RulingDespite a federal judge’s decision that water fluoridation poses health risks, the Trump DOJ and EPA announce an appeal. Critics argue the government is protecting industry profits over children’s health. 03:06:30 – 03:08:54Corporate Lobbyists Back EPA’s Fluoride PushBig Chemical interests and dental associations join the EPA in fighting the ruling. The host mocks the idea of forced fluoridation, calling it unnecessary and coercive, especially given product warnings on fluoride-containing items. 03:33:55 – 03:37:25U.S.-Funded Israeli Strike Kills Children at Gaza ClinicA U.S.-backed Israeli airstrike near a medical clinic kills 16 Palestinians, including 10 children. The host condemns the attack as an atrocity and accuses the U.S. of funding the slaughter. The IDF provides no evidence that those targeted were militants. 03:39:51 – 03:42:10Palestinian Civilian Death Toll Mounts Amid IDF AssaultsReports indicate over 100 Palestinians were killed in a 24-hour period. Airstrikes hit tents, refugee camps, and aid seekers, with the host emphasizing the deliberate nature of these attacks and criticizing America’s role in enabling them. 03:44:09 – 03:45:21Aid Zones Targeted by Israeli Forces with Lethal IntentHundreds of Palestinians seeking aid have been killed. Reports suggest IDF soldiers are told to shoot anyone entering "undefined" zones. The host likens this to an intentional trap, not collateral damage. 03:45:24 – 03:46:08Gaza Genocide Forgotten as U.S. and Israel Escalate Into IranCoverage fades on Gaza as U.S. and Israeli aggression moves to Iran. The host reads from a personal op-ed decrying the silence around Gaza and warning of new Middle East destabilization efforts led by Netanyahu and Trump. 03:46:09 – 03:48:24Israel Starves Gaza, Then Shoots at Starving CiviliansIsrael’s military blockade leads to famine. When desperate civilians gather for food, many are killed. The host describes this as a pattern—not accidents—and notes the media silence on this escalating war crime.

In a world of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. It's the David Knight Show. As the clock strikes 13, it is Wednesday, the 16th of July, year of our Lord 2025. And we're going to look at the excesses of ICE.
Starting point is 00:01:17 And Maha going to HaHa. The movement's kind of becoming a joke, isn't it? And then we're going to look at what's going on with Israel in the Middle East. Stay with us. The The Good morning, folks. Hope you're all enjoying the start of your day. I know I am. Got some coffee, got some stories. I was doing a little bit interesting research before the show began validating my dislike
Starting point is 00:02:53 of the French. Maybe I'll rant about that a little bit later. It's not necessarily confirmed, but I've always had the suspicion that the French resistance was slightly overblown But as I said, we're gonna start with what's going on with ice But before that we've already got some comments from possum king Another conspiracy theory comes true California bill passes to buy fire ravaged palisades for low-income apartments 15 minute cities question mark the government loves doing that kind of thing
Starting point is 00:03:27 creating a crisis and then swooping in to Make the best of a bad situation they've created There's also the fact that they love turning places into low-income housing It's happened in the past before during economic downturns places over build Apartment complexes and then the government will come in and say, well, we'll pay you a certain amount of money. That way you can keep income, your income stream coming in if you turn it into section 8 or low income housing, and it completely destroys the areas surrounding it. And of course, the fire fire they let California burn they didn't have water in the fire hydrants It was a huge mess in terms of trying to put it out
Starting point is 00:04:13 Yeah at minimum at minimum it is one of the most shocking displays of incompetence The world has ever seen but more realistically it's part of an actual plan to implement Agenda 2030 and things like that. Knights of the Storm responding to Possum King part of the Olympics plan. Karen covered that a while back. I want to have a vehicle free event. The area will be heavily surveilled with flock and only have public transit. Heavily surveilled with flock? You're gonna need geesebusters there. He can handle that. He knows how to get rid of flocks. Possum King who's going to watch the NATO Olympics? Bricks nations won't attend. I've only surveilled with flock. You're gonna need geesebusters there. He can handle that. He knows how to get rid of flocks. Possum King. Who's going to watch the NATO Olympics? Bricks Nations won't attend. I have never once, once watched the Olympics. Never once in my life have I ever sat
Starting point is 00:04:56 down to watch an Olympic event and I hope I can manage to avoid it for the rest of my life as well. You've got to have some American pride. I don't care about track and field. I don't care about any of the sports in the Olympics. They're all the really lame ones that they couldn't find a better way to market. They had to get nationalism involved. Every other sport is at least somewhat exciting. They found a way to get people in there to watch them without bringing in. This is national pride. You have to support these people. It's part that really matters. These are the really boring ones. I can't, I don't even like regular sports. You think I'm gonna sit down and watch someone hurl a
Starting point is 00:05:40 large piece of iron? No thanks. No, I'd rather not. Big Brit is back again. Israel is attacking Syria now. They're gonna attack everyone in that area. The more they attack, the more likely it is they can drag the United States in more rapidly. Geesebusters, just thumbs up. That's... Good to see you, Geeseesebusters hope you're doing well as I said we're gonna start with the excesses of ice today this is from the Guardian Irish tourists jailed by ice for months after overstaying US visit by three days nobody is safe well I mean obvious there's probably a good reason for this he was probably a part of the you know IRA or something like that. He's obviously a dangerous individual those Irish are known for being feisty It was by Sam Levin from the Guardian
Starting point is 00:06:33 And of course these are the people that ice and Trump were gonna go after the whole time not people have been here for years and Are here illegally? It's someone that is overstaying their vacation by a couple of days. Of course, I will point out that he was arrested during the Biden administration at the very tail end of it. But the Trump administration did nothing to help this man. Thomas, a 35 year old tech worker and father of three from Ireland, came to West Virginia to visit his girlfriend last fall. It was one of many trips he had taken to the US and he was authorized to travel under a visa waiver program that allows tourists to stay in
Starting point is 00:07:12 the country for 90 days he planned to return to Ireland in December again by an administration but was briefly unable to fly due to a hay health issue it'll go into detail in this article later but he basically tore his calf very badly so he couldn't fly. He was briefly unable to fly due to health issues. His medical records show he was only three days overdue to leave the US when an encounter with police landed him in Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody. From there, which should have been a minor incident, became a nightmarish ordeal. He was detained by ICE in three different facilities, ultimately spending roughly 100 days behind bars with little understanding of why he was being held
Starting point is 00:07:48 or when he'd get out. He always stays by three on accident due to a medical problem, due to the fact he is physically restrained from flying. So we'll keep you here for another hundred days. We're worried about you leeching off the American taxpayers. so we're going to throw you in prison where we have to support you and maintain you.
Starting point is 00:08:09 The government is continually absurd and goes about things in the least efficient, least moral way possible. Nobody is safe from the system if they get pulled into it, said Thomas in a recent interview from his home in Ireland. Thankfully he got home. A few months after his release, Thomas asked to be identified by the nickname out of fear of facing further consequences with US immigration authorities Hopefully he doesn't face any more consequences, but the real question is
Starting point is 00:08:36 Does he really want to come back? Is that something he thinks is a problem? Is he I wouldn't never go back to a country that this happened to me and no thank you. I might have some other issue. I don't want to deal with this again and probably never leave my own country again. Thomas was sent back to Ireland in March and was told he was banned from entering the U.S. for 10 years as I said. Does he really want to come back? Is that ban really necessary? I think everything you've done is a more effective deterrent to having this man cross our borders. Thomas's ordeal follows a rise in reports of tourists and visitors with valid visas being detained by ICE, including from Australia, Germany, Canada, and the UK. An April, an Irish woman who's a US green card holder was also detained by ICE for 17 days
Starting point is 00:09:22 due to a nearly two decade old criminal record. The rest appear to be part of a broader crackdown by the Trump administration which has pushed to deport students, legitize to pro-Palestinian protests, send detainees to Guantanamo Bay, and an El Salvador prison without presenting evidence of criminality. Deported people to South Sudan, a war-torn country where the deportees had no ties, and escalated large-scale, militarized raids across the US. This article from The Guardian feels pretty disingenuous in that they're blaming Trump for this. This arrest happened under Biden. That should be kind of a leading thing here. I'm sure they've got some examples of other people that were arrested under Trump and held for up to 17 days it looks like, but that's not the same attention-grabbing
Starting point is 00:10:11 months headline. Yeah. The article about them, if you're talking about Trump-era arrests. Yeah, the main thing is like he was still held by ICE despite the fact that Trump comes and says we're gonna get them working smoothly, we're gonna have them focus on these things he's arrested in December Trump is sworn in in January and he's probably still there for another you know close to 70 days thereabouts under the Trump administration he's right so ICE has been incompetent and buffoonish since before Trump, even during the Biden administration. Because I mean, the entire government is that way, no matter who sits in the White House.
Starting point is 00:10:55 He's just given them the power to make their incompetence center stage. Yeah. Thomas, an engineer at a tech firm, had never had any problems visiting the US under the visa waiver program. He had initially planned to return home in October but badly tore his calf, suffered severe swelling, and was having trouble walking, he said. The doctor ordered him not to travel for 8-12 weeks due to the risk of blood clots, which he said meant he had to stay slightly past the 8th of December when his authorization
Starting point is 00:11:21 expired. He obtained paperwork from his physician and contacted the Irish and US embassies and Department of Homeland Security to seek an extension but it was short notice. I did not hear back, he said. I did everything I could with the online tools available to notify the authorities that this was happening. I thought they would understand because I had the correct paperwork. It was just a couple of days for medical reasons. Banking on the government to be understanding or extend any kind of grace is... Well, you saw how it worked out for Thomas. They don't usually do that. The bureaucracy is implacable.
Starting point is 00:12:01 Thomas and his girlfriend Malone were visiting her family in Savannah, Georgia when Thomas suffered a mental health episode. He and Malone recalled the two had a conflict in their hotel room and someone overheard it and called the police, they said. Malone, who requested to use her middle name to protect her boyfriend's identity, said she was hoping officers would get him treatment. It did not want to see him face criminal charges, but police took him to jail, accusing him of falsely imprisoning his girlfriend
Starting point is 00:12:25 in the hotel room. A charge Malone said she did not support. He was soon released on bond, but instead of walking free, was picked up by US immigration authorities who transported him 100 miles away to an ICE processing center in Folkston, Georgia. The facility is operated by the private prison company, Geo Group, on behalf of ICE, with capacity to hold more than 1,000 people. Gotta love our private for-profit prisons. Thomas was given a two-page removal order which said he had remained in the US three
Starting point is 00:12:52 days past his authorization and contained no further allegations on the 17th of December he signed a form agreeing to be removed. But despite signing the form he remained at Folkestone unable to get answers about why ICE wasn't deporting him or how long he would remain in custody yes, you can deport me fine. That's what I wanted in the first place and They don't do it Because one job ice This is supposed to be your thing. This is supposed to be
Starting point is 00:13:20 Your entire schtick, and you can't get it done one extremely cooperative Irishman just yes please sir send me back to Ireland and they won't do it Thomas that he requested that I should release him with an agreement that he'd return to Ireland as planned but ice refused one point folks in after a fight broke out officers place detainees on lockdown for about five days cutting them off from contacting their families. He said Thomas said he and others only got approximately one hour of outdoors time each
Starting point is 00:13:53 week. I did everything I could to notify the authorities that this was happening. The authorities know this is happening. I feel bad for this guy. He obviously has some level of faith in the system, except this is how the system is supposed to operate. It's all supposed to be horrific and brutal and uncaring and incompetent. That's the point. In mid-February, after about two months in detention, officers placed him and nearly 50 other detainees in a holding cell. Preparing to move them, he said, I thought I was finally going home.
Starting point is 00:14:22 He called his family to tell them the news instead he and the others were shackled around their wrists waist and legs and transported four hours to a federal correctional institution in Atlanta a prison run by the US Bureau of Prisons BOP houses criminals defendants criminal defendants on federal charges but the Trump administration is part of its efforts to expand ICE detention has been increasingly placing immigrants into BOP facilities a move that advocates say has led to chaos overcrowding and violations of detainees rights." Also you're potentially putting these you know non-offenders like this
Starting point is 00:14:59 guy Thomas and with some seriously hardened criminals, which could lead to some terrible outcomes beyond what will happen from the guards, beyond what happens by the actual system. There's the actual criminal inmates to worry about. Thomas said the conditions and treatment by BOP were worse than ice detention. They were not prepared for us whatsoever. You know, the detainees were placed in an area with dirty mattresses, cockroaches, and mice where some bunk beds lacked ladders. Forcing people to climb to the top bed, he said. VOP didn't seem to have enough clothes, said Thomas, who got a
Starting point is 00:15:37 jumpsuit but no shirt. The facility also gave me a pair of used ripped underwear with brown stains. Some jumpsuits appeared to have blood stains and holes, he added. Great. Yes, here's your stained ripped underwear. Here's your blood stained jumpsuit. Don't mind the shank holes. They're part of the aesthetic. Each detainee was given one toilet paper roll a week. He shared a cell with another detainee, and he said they were only able to flush the toilet three times an hour. He was often freezing and was given only a thin blanket.
Starting point is 00:16:10 The food was disgusting slop, including some kind of mysterious meat that at times appeared to have chunks of bones and other inedible items mixed in. He said he was frequently hungry. This poor man. He injures himself and as such can't travel. He does everything he can in good faith to notify the government that he's been given medical notice that he can't travel. He fills others requested medical visits, but were never seen by physicians. He said I heard people crying for doctors saying they couldn't breathe and staff would just say,
Starting point is 00:16:55 well I'm not a doctor, and walk away. He did eventually receive the psychiatric medication he requested, but staff would throw his pill under his cell door, and he'd sometimes have to search the floor to find it. You can just see the lack of care. The way these people are not treated as even human. Not treated with even the slightest bit of respect. And the prison system is set up to dehumanize both the guards and the prisoners. It does it to both of them.
Starting point is 00:17:28 I can imagine that when you're an actual prison guard, it becomes very easy to justify this kind of treatment, because you're dealing with some of the worst people on the planet. You see how they are violent and prone to just incredible acts of brutality and so it's easy to justify treating them in this manner. Dougda007 it's disgraceful to treat people this way. Yes it is. Yes it is. Our country is disgraceful. Nibiru2029 ice is training for the citizen roundups when Emperor Trump dictates the next scandemic lockdowns. That's right. You didn't follow the rules. I'm sorry, but you didn't wear the mask. ICE is going to put you into a swamp jail. Detainees, he said, were given recreation time in an enclosure that was partially open to fresh air, but resembled an indoor cage. I couldn't see
Starting point is 00:18:32 the outside whatsoever. I didn't see the sky for weeks. He had sciatica from an earlier hip injury and said he began experiencing unbearable nerve pain as a result of the lack of movement. Thomas said it seemed ICE's placement in the BOP facility were arbitrary and poorly planned. Of the nearly 50 people taken from the ICE to BOP facility, about 30 of them were transferred back to Folkestone a week later, and the following two from that group were once again returned to the BOP facility. There's no point, there's no plan, it's all just shuffling meaningless They just are simply
Starting point is 00:19:12 Doing things to justify their actions. Well, we've got to move them here. We've got to do this It's like how you know some people oh you got to look busy when the boss is around just pretend to be doing anything Cutting the gears of a extremely cold, uncaring bureaucracy. Mm-hmm. And the BOP... It's Kafka-esque, man. And the BOP facility said ICE representatives would show up once a week to talk to detainees. Detainees would crowd around ICE officials and beg for case updates or help. ICE officers spoke Spanish and English, but Middle Eastern and North African detainees
Starting point is 00:19:43 who spoke neither were stuck in a state of confusion. It was pandemonium, Thomas said. Seems like a completely incomprehensible, punitive detention. Thomas said he saw a BOP guard tear up watching the desperation of the people trying to talk to ICE and find out what was happening. His officer tried to assist people as best she could. Female prison guards are just... we shouldn't have them. If we're going to have this kind of prison system, you definitely should not have female prison guards.
Starting point is 00:20:18 His officer tried to assist people as best she could. Thomas and Malone tried to help asylum seekers and others he met at the BOP facility by connecting them to advocates. Thomas was also unable to speak to his children because there was no way to make international calls. I don't know how I made it through, he said. In mid-March, Thomas was briefly transferred again to a different ICE facility. The authorities did not explain what had changed, but two armed federal officers then escorted him on a flight back to Ireland Someone probably got wind of this and realized what a nightmare publicity event it was going to be
Starting point is 00:20:53 The DHS and ICE did not respond to inquiries and a spokesperson for the GEO group declined to comment Yeah, I wonder why I wonder why they wouldn't want to talk about this it's because this is exactly the type of excess and failure that we're all worried about. The reason why you need to have the rule of law, why you need to be able to actually tell people why they're being detained. There's no reason. This was just simply a failure of the system. A system that they're looking to expand ever outward and give more power to.
Starting point is 00:21:30 Donald Murphy, a BOP spokesperson, confirmed that Thomas had been in the Bureau's custody but did not comment about his case or conditions at the Atlanta facility. The BOP is now housing Icetaneys in eight of its prisons. We continue to support our law enforcement partners to fulfill the administration's policy objectives," Murphy added. It's unclear why Thomas was jailed for so long for a minor immigration violation. It seems completely outlandish that they would detain someone for three months because he overstayed a visa for a medical reason, said Serene Shebayah, executive director of the
Starting point is 00:22:01 National Immigration Project, who was not involved in his case and was provided a summary by the Guardian. It is such a waste of time and money at a time when we're hearing constantly about how the government wants to cut expenses. It seems like a completely incomprehensible punitive detention. ICE, she added, was creating its own crisis of overcrowding or taking these people and having to put them in actual regular prisons. Don't worry, we're going to open more alligator alcatrazs, I'm sure. Only for hardened criminals though.
Starting point is 00:22:35 You won't get caught up. They're very careful about who they detain and who they throw in there. They're very caring and conscientious about it. Ice however however, had discretion to release Thomas with agreement that he'd return home instead of keeping him indefinitely detained. The Trump administration, she added, has defaulted to keeping people detained without weighing individual factors of their cases. Now it's just, do we have a bed? And of course, this is probably in response to the overly lax immigration policy of previous years. Again, the pendulum swing back and forth.
Starting point is 00:23:11 People make it here and they're just told, oh well, here's the cell phone, here's this, here's that, please show up for your court date. It's X number of weeks, months, or years into the future. And they go, absolutely, of course I'll do that. They scamper off, never to be seen again which now means I'm sure these people are very unwilling to let anyone go to cut anyone loose because they know the chances of them actually showing up for a court date where they're going to hear news they don't want to and probably be deported is slim to none
Starting point is 00:23:43 it's a horrific and brutal response to another problem the government created. Again, problem, reaction, solution. Classic. Classic tactics. He was shaken by reports of people sent away without due process. I wouldn't have been surprised if I ended up at Guantanamo Bay or El Salvador because it was so disorganized," he said. I was just at the mercy of the federal government, and that is a scary place to be. The federal government is not known for its mercy. It's known for its incompetence, its wickedness, its bureaucracy.
Starting point is 00:24:19 Nibiru2029 Sounds like the Irishman injured himself during a rage event with his girlfriend in the motel room. Actually, he had injured himself previously in some kind of event where he tore his calf. He obviously has some kind of issues. There's something going on with that relationship where they're having major blowout fights loud enough that they call the police on them. But according to the article at least, he injured himself earlier and had even filed the correct paperwork to say he had been injured. So there's possibly a record of that to confirm his side of events.
Starting point is 00:25:00 It is a horrific story, though I do also feel like the guardian is kind of spinning things because he was Arrested because his girlfriend called the cops on him. A listener, someone who heard the fight called the cops. Oh. Still if you're having a loud enough screaming match that someone in a nearby room thinks I need to call the police, someone's about to die Chances are there's some issues and chances are you're not... Chances are you need some kind of intervention. Not necessarily from the police, but from family and friends to go, you got to get this under control, man.
Starting point is 00:25:37 Welcome up in inhumane conditions for three months. That'll fix it. Yeah, exactly. I'm sure he came out a much kinder, gentler, more well-reasoned person. That's what I've heard prison does to you. The original Alcatraz closed for costing too much. Alligator Alcatraz should too. Forwarded elected officials should learn from the original facility that inspired the state's newest immigrant detention center's name and change course before it's too late. The newest state-run immigration detention center, Alligator Alcatraz, the brainchild
Starting point is 00:26:09 of Florida Attorney General James Guttmeier, has been touted as an efficient and low-cost opportunity to house, process, and directly deport migrant detainees, but much like the original Alcatraz prison-elected officials should be wary of the rising cost that remote detention facilities have on taxpayers. Don't worry guys, we're going to get these people off the street. They're not going to be able to get welfare anymore. We're just going to spend an exorbitant amount keeping them housed. Keeping them here.
Starting point is 00:26:37 No, the conditions are still going to be horrific. Don't get me wrong. They're going to be suffering. But you know how we do here at the federal government or the state government, really any part of government. We're going to make this as expensive as possible. Doug to 007. I was watching something about the food served at Ellis Island. Our government rehired a company that had originally lost their contract for serving rotten food. Everything the government touches is a disaster. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:09 Anyone who has ever sat in a DMV should have a, uh, dread in their stomach. Anytime they hear the government is taking something on, Oh no. You mean those people that run the DMV, those people that run any other, any other any other department you ever have to have any interaction with is a nightmare. There is not one single time you're like, oh boy
Starting point is 00:27:32 I get to interact with the government. Isn't it wonderful? Nibiru 2029, Obama's NDAA gives every administration the power to detain without cause. It's their country and we're just living in it. Alligator Alcatraz is located in a 30 square mile parcel of land in the Everglades chosen in part for its nearly 11,000 foot unused airstrip capable of directly
Starting point is 00:27:56 accepting and deporting immigrant detainees. The land's remoteness was another selling point for the Florida officials. They ain't going no ain't going anywhere once they are here because good luck getting to civilization, said Governor Ron DeSantis during a press conference on July 1st, the day before the facility opened. The security is amazing. Natural and otherwise, he continued, referring to the alligator and python-laden perimeter surrounding the temporary tents used to house detainees.
Starting point is 00:28:24 Good luck getting past the alligators and pythons buddy. Actually, the pythons are another invasive species. They're not supposed to be there. It was the site's remoteness that inspired the facility's name, an homage to the original Alcatraz. Ah yes, very subtle. A subtle homage by using the actual name. Federal penitentiary located in the San Francisco Bay.
Starting point is 00:28:49 DeSantis even quipped during an opening day tour of the Florida facility that Governor Gavin Newsom could potentially reopen Alcatraz as a state-run immigration detention center with the financial support of the Department of Homeland Security. But there are more similarities between Florida's alligator Alcatraz and the notorious federal prison that DeSantis may want to consider. Alcatraz, which ran as a federal prison from 1934 to 1963, was the product of a collaborative effort of Attorney General Homer Cummings and Director of Bureau of Prisons Sanford Bates to produce a high-profile prison that represented the Justice Department's response
Starting point is 00:29:22 to fears around public safety and organized crime. According to the National Park Service, the remote site was sought specifically to prohibit constant communication with the outside world. Of course now they have things like CMUs, the communication management units, where they just lock you down, make it so you're not allowed to contact anyone, see that with Marty Gottesfeld or Schaefer Cox. Residents near Alligator Alcatraz opposed the facility. The experimental federal prison opened to house the country's worst criminals during its time in operation. Alcatraz's inmate population averaged about 260 to 275, never reaching its 336 capacity
Starting point is 00:30:06 limit. The maximum security facility eventually closed because the institution was too expensive. According to the Federal Bureau of Prisons, along with needed restoration and maintenance projects, the daily operational costs coming in at $10.10 per capita in 1959, or $111.96 suggested for inflation. Nearly three times more expensive than any other federal prison because of the prison's physical isolation. The facility's isolation, although originally perceived as an assent, meant all supplies
Starting point is 00:30:37 had to be shipped to Alcatraz, including food and nearly one million gallons of water each week. Similarly, alligator alcatraz, remote and rudimentary Everglades location means that all supplies must be trucked in, including food, water, and generators for electricity. After only eight days of construction, the facility's temporary tents and chain link cells now house over 700 migrants. With plans to hold up to 5,000 detainees for already reported limited access to water and insufficient food. This is going to be a disaster. This is going to result in some extremely horrific inhumane conditions. You have, as
Starting point is 00:31:21 they point out, it's isolated. It's difficult to get supplies in there. It's going to be costly they're going to cram up to five thousand people in there and I'm sure they would never overcrowd it and cram more in there if they're able to and I'm sure they'll have proper medical facilities and doctors on hand because it would probably be a major hassle to ship anyone to a exterior hospital. Yeah As Lance points out, do you really think a doctor or someone with that kind of expertise is going to want to sit around in the swamp in a hastily constructed facility to take care of people that are being touted as hardened criminals.
Starting point is 00:32:05 Getting someone to do that is going to be very difficult. They're going to have the bare minimum. As before, we are all for deporting people who are here illegally. Being here illegally is a crime. That's one of the things they always do is they say, these people don't even have a criminal record because they don't talk about the fact that they immigrated illegally. They ignore that crime. Well, they don't have any other criminal record. Sorry, that's, you know, they don't have an inalienable right to live in America. But you don't throw them into these kinds of conditions.
Starting point is 00:32:45 You don't treat them like animals. Documents leaked shortly after opening reveal that the facility's cost may have already ballooned to over $600 million. $150 million more than the initially estimated $450 million per year. Oh no, a government project being poorly done over budget? This has never happened before. I'm surprised. I'm shocked. I can't believe this would happen. We're spending $600 million to keep these people in the worst conditions possible. And of course, it's going to continue to cost taxpayers more and more. Who knows, maybe
Starting point is 00:33:25 they'll just decide deporting them is too much work. Maybe we'll keep them here as a low-cost slave army. I'm sure the Bureau of Prisons wouldn't mind more laborers that they get to utilize however they see fit. Syrian girl Alligator Alcatraz would certainly be a distinct disincentive for legals who invade Florida. No sympathy from me on this one. Well, the problem is there are also all the people that have legitimate visas that are being arrested as well.
Starting point is 00:33:56 It's a question of how well the government can execute this. Good to put it after the article about the Irishman who was here a couple days over. Yeah It's simply The main concern is simply how inefficient bureaucratic and incompetent these systems are if If they were locking up these horrific gang members and throwing them in alligator alcatraz, I would be right there with you I wouldn't have any sympathy. Oh, no You're throwing ms-13 into the swamp and letting them deal with the consequences of their evil actions. That's horrifying
Starting point is 00:34:30 I feel so bad for them. It's more the fact that we know that's not what's going to happen They will round up of course some gang members. It's bound to happen, but you're gonna get largely People who while shouldn't be here and should be deported don't deserve to be treated inhumanely. KWD-68, every public school district that accepts federal funds all of them agrees to surrender use of their buildings in times of emergency every public school you see is a future concentration camp. That is I'm not laughing at the comment. I'm just thinking about how so many kids at school have a hard time concentrating. Just a little bit of irony
Starting point is 00:35:12 there. But yes, they... the schools are terrible one way or the other. They will be used for all kinds of perfect things. Hundreds of alligator alcatraz detainees don't have criminal records. And again, this is... I have a hard time... Again, because they do the thing where they say, well, they don't have criminal records, but what they mean is they don't have any other criminal record than the fact they came here illegally. Now, this is coming from Reason, who may be a bit more reasonable about this, however,
Starting point is 00:35:52 it's hard to say. I have a very hard time being okay with this wording. It's again, they don't deserve this kind of treatment but pretending well they don't even have criminal records. That's not technically true The headline is contradictory in and of itself if they are here illegally Hundreds of alligator alcatraz detainees don't have criminal records Trump said the prison camp would hold some of the most vicious people on the planet But a list obtained by the Miami Herald and Tampa Bay Tribune shows otherwise
Starting point is 00:36:24 There's also of of course, the fact that there's no guarantee that they haven't committed crimes, they just weren't caught. There's all kinds of mitigating factors to headlines like this. The main point is this is a violation of, you know, rights of habeas corpus, whether or not they have criminal records. Trump said the prison camp would hold some of the most vicious people on the planet, but a list obtained by the Miami Herald and Tampa Bay Tribune shows otherwise. Hundreds of detainees at a newly opened detention center in the Florida Everglades don't have underlying criminal records according to Miami Herald and Tampa Bay Times
Starting point is 00:37:02 investigation published Sunday. Of course reason is just parroting this and I have even more reason to suspect the Miami Herald and Tampa Bay Times investigation published Sunday. Of course, reason is just parroting this, and I have even more reason to suspect the Miami Herald and Tampa Bay Times of sugarcoating things and papering over things. Despite the Trump administration, Florida officials claim that the detention center, which they've gleefully dubbed Alligator Alcatraz, is holding hardened criminals and violent gang members, the Herald and Times obtained a list of roughly 700 detainees being held there. News outlet found more than 250 people who were listed as having only immigration violations but no criminal convictions or pending charges. So about one-third have other violations aside from immigration. So, again, if they were throwing gang members some of these violent, horrific people who simply do nothing but terrorize and murder, I would not have the slightest bit of sympathy.
Starting point is 00:38:00 Sorry you made your bed lying. It's more the fact that we know we're going to sweep up all kinds of people and I have do have some sympathy for those people. Just being here illegally, while again a crime and I think they should be deported for, I don't think they should be treated as monsters, I don't think they should be You know thrown into the swamp Be all out and how long will detainees be held no one knows it's indefinite You know however they end up however long they end up staying who cares. I'm sure they'll put them to work somehow Who knows maybe they can put the detainees to work removing the invasive pythons You know I mean they're getting paid one way or the other so who
Starting point is 00:38:45 cares we'll use the invasive immigrants to remove the invasive pythons we're going to clean up the swamp the literal swamp millions of migrants who entered ice memo reveals Trump's plan to scrap bond hearings to keep millions of illegal migrants locked up millions of migrants who entered the United States illegally will be forced to remain behind bars while their deportation proceedings continue for months, even a year under the Trump administration policy." And again, I think this is in response to people getting fed up with how the government would bring them in, say, here's your cell phone, here's this, here's that. Just come back for your hearing, knowing full well these people were never going to come back for the hearing.
Starting point is 00:39:28 And this is just an excess on the other side. Yeah, there's a balance to be struck between not just letting them go and never seeing them again and not detaining them for months or years. It's absurd that they can't get their act together and do this in a timely manner. I mean part of it is just the issue that has been created is massive. The number of illegals that have been allowed into the country over the years is probably far greater than the numbers that they
Starting point is 00:40:02 actually publish. It is probably to the extent that getting rid of them is a massive undertaking. It is a giant problem. It is much bigger, in my opinion, again, than they let on. And they are just scrambling and floundering. And of course, the federal government is inefficient and incapable when it comes to almost anything and everything. The capacity, though, is expected to nearly double under the recently passed Big Beautiful
Starting point is 00:40:31 bill which allocates $45 billion over the next four years to lock up migrants for civil deportation proceedings. Again, this is a problem they allowed to happen and now ICE is getting $45 billion. It's going to cost the American taxpayer a lot of paper. One way or the other they are going to drain the American economy. America is now a police state. Medicaid cuts are terrible. The ICE expansions are even worse as by Jonathan Alter from the Washington Monthly.
Starting point is 00:41:02 If you have a hammer everything looks like a nail, and if you have 75 billion over four years in new funding for ICE, you, Donald Trump, Stephen Miller, and Tom Homan will use it to fund a huge domestic army to round up 4 million people in the next three years, put them in detention centers, quote unquote, and deport them. And again, I'm not worried about illegals being deported. I'm worried about people who don't deserve this kind of treatment being thrown into inhumane conditions. I'm worried then about it being rolled out further to people who criticize the
Starting point is 00:41:32 president and his administration and future presidents and their administrations. You know, you don't support Israel. We're going to throw you out of the country. You don't support this or that. Whichever, whatever flavor of the month is, then you end up in the detention center in the out of the country. You don't support this or that, whichever flavor of the month is. Then you end up in the detention center in the middle of the Everglades. Defy Tyrant 1776. If I wouldn't treat a dog a certain way, I wouldn't treat people made in the image of God that way. That's a good way to put it. These cruel men planned to go after criminals as they claimed they would have needed only a fraction of the money that Republican lawmakers just gave them. Ending the genuine shortfall in the Department of Homeland Security budget doesn't require
Starting point is 00:42:11 this kind of dough. So with virtually unlimited funds, they'll make up for lost time. We're already witnessing swarms of masked agents grabbing people off the street. Within weeks it'll get a lot worse. The grandma who has been here for 30 years paying taxes. The dreamer college student who has been thoroughly American since he was a child. Again, sorry, um, that just, that's one of those things where like I apologize, I'm sorry, but that's a failure of your parents. Oh, we snuck you over the border. We got you in under a technicality. You're a dreamer. That's not America's problem. I do have sympathy
Starting point is 00:42:46 I'm sorry, but take it up with your parents. They decided to abuse the system and Sometimes you got to deal with the consequences The thoroughly American since he was a toddler the small business owner who gets a traffic ticket 3,000 of them a day will be ripped from their their family, sent to a prison, and shipped to a country where they don't know anyone. Again, take it up with the people. If we are not putting them into places like Alligator Alcatraz or the El Salvadoran Prison where they are being abused, I have no problem with deporting them. This whole sob story of, they, oh, this wasn't their fault. Take it up with your family members who decided to break the law. That's a them problem.
Starting point is 00:43:31 They decided to subvert and ignore the laws of a country. And as such, you, by default, are also subverting and defying the laws of that country. It's just, sorry, it happens. This is not... I don't know what to say, again. I feel sympathy and I feel sorry for them, but your parents should have thought of that before they decided that eh, who cares. It was the parents that endangered them. Yeah. Just... Your parents broke the law. They thought, oh, this is a great little loophole. We're gonna take advantage of the American system.
Starting point is 00:44:10 We're gonna get one over on the American people. The American government. And now... Sorry. It's... Guard Goldsmith. That's where an editor should work to press the point that they weren't convicted of violent crimes. They would have to discuss the unconstitutional nature of federal immigration laws. And Guard is very knowledgeable and very...
Starting point is 00:44:33 Excuse me. Hardcore on the nature of immigration laws, in that it's the states who get to enforce them and decide them. Of course, I tend to agree just in the fact that anytime you get the federal government involved, it turns into a debacle, even without knowing just specifics and being able to cite things to you, knowing that the federal government is an incompetent, unfeeling, hateful bureaucracy. Having them handle it is the worst possible choice. The states should be free to enforce their own immigration laws as they see fit. If California wants to turn into a
Starting point is 00:45:09 migrant overrun, just nightmare land, technically I guess that's California's right to do so. Assyrian Girl, what happened to the Irish legal immigrant was horrific but do we eliminate all prisons because some innocent people are Going to get unjustly sent to them. We won't overcome this invasion with niceness. I understand where you're coming from and It is a difficult question They have created this problem, which is a massive problem
Starting point is 00:45:39 America will not stay America if you continue to allow this unlimited flood and will likely not stay America if you do not do something about the people who are already here like I've been saying there's a balance that needs to be struck between actually enforcing the law and not Having you know this massive bureaucracy that can pull anyone off the street You know, this massive bureaucracy that can pull anyone off the street regardless of whether they've got a valid visa or not and hold them for an indefinite amount of time. That's clearly not a good way of going about this. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:14 I see that yes, there is a problem and yes, that may involve some un-nice things, but this seems like it's going a bit far. Again, it's just... where does it stop? We've seen this administration already talk about, oh, you know, these people have pro-Palestinian ties. Maybe we revoke their citizenship. Maybe we could throw them in prison. It's just a very spooky thing to have sitting there, knowing their predilection for expansion.
Starting point is 00:46:45 And when I see this it just strikes me as so disingenuous when they still have all of these massive welfare incentives for people drawing them in. Yeah you've got to get rid of that first. Oh we're gonna grab you off the street. Start with the welfare, see how that works. And again I'm not one of those people that thinks, oh, if we get rid of the welfare, they'll all just go home. Personally, I think probably being, you know, poor, potentially homeless here in the United States is
Starting point is 00:47:14 probably better than being poor and potentially homeless in the countries they come from. And as such, you probably will have to actually do something to get them out of the country. I think it would reduce the draw. It would greatly reduce the number of people who are going to come here, but it wouldn't necessarily impact the people who are already here. They would find some other way to scrape by. Defy Tyrant 1776. Travis, if an illegal has no family, he's working, collecting no benefits or welfare. He's been here for years. Should he be taken away from his family and deported?
Starting point is 00:47:49 Just asking your opinion. Well, a problem with that is we don't know who is collecting benefits and who isn't. Most illegals are. I met some illegals when I lived in Texas that I didn't get to know too well, but I knew they were collecting a lot of benefits just from the few interactions I had with them. Yeah, again, it's a difficult question because you want, I want to be sympathetic to the person because he has again this hypothetical he has a family he's a hard-working guy but he is still technically in violation of the law it is the law as we see it and I don't think he should be removed
Starting point is 00:48:40 from his family personally of the opinions like, they all gotta go. Just, sorry, this was a, or, are you implying that he married someone who now lives in this country? I think at that point, again, it's a very difficult question, but part of me is just like, the system has been non-functioning. It has created this scenario where there are no solidly good options and if we are going to maintain
Starting point is 00:49:12 the United States as United States we may have to you know deport the people and then sort out who gets to come back later. As callous and cold and cruel as that may sound, if we are not sending them to someplace that is a direct threat to their safety, like a prison in El Salvador, and they have the potential to come back and plead their case, or if we were able to set up a system where they were able to plead their case rapidly and we could decide if they are worthy of asylum in a quick fashion I would be in favor of that it's just the sheer number of people here makes this extremely difficult if you don't go about this in a somewhat
Starting point is 00:49:58 quick and decisive fashion you'll probably never be able to you know actually make an impact. But if you go about it in such a quick and decisive fashion that you are, you know, just throwing everyone into a prison in El Salvador or alligator Alcatraz, it's cruel and inhumane because there are certain, there are people that just don't deserve it, you know. I am in favor again, you know, the grandma's been here, you know, 30 plus years paying taxes. You know, the grandma's been here, you know, 30-plus years paying taxes. Still, you came here illegally. That is a violation of the law. I'm sorry, but I do
Starting point is 00:50:30 think we will send you back out of the country. But no, I don't want to throw grandma into a prison. I think it's just sent her back to where she came from and her family there. I mean, the thing you're describing isn't as though he hasn't broken any laws he chose to come here illegally when this person that's been working here could have gotten a citizenship. It's more just- the real reason to do that is to avoid paying taxes. Yes it's just the way you describe it as a new father myself the idea of stripping a man from his children and, you know, children from their father. It does fill me with a sadness and it's a very hard decision for me to say.
Starting point is 00:51:15 Defy Tyrant 1776. It is our government who allowed the illegal issue to grow this big and they did it on purpose to create a wedge issue. Yeah, that's the problem. It is specifically done on purpose. It was... it's custom created to cause these kinds of issues so that they then get to do, as I've said, problem reaction solution. But back to your original, uh, hypothetical, you've got someone that's working here illegally, sending money back, who has been here for years but never decided to
Starting point is 00:51:47 become a citizen. That's clearly a detriment to the economy that this person is taking wealth out of the US, not paying taxes if he's not a citizen. He's driving down wages because the employer has to pay taxes on their employees that you don't see in the wages. Yeah. Difficult. So there is a reason that we don't want that sort of person here. It's just we need a humane, logical way of stopping that scenario. Yep.
Starting point is 00:52:24 Yep. So with virtually unlimited funds, they'll make up for lost time. We're already witnessing swarms of mass agents grabbing people off the street. Within weeks it'll get a lot worse. The grandma who has been here for 30 years paying taxes. The Dreamer college student who has been thoroughly American since he was a toddler. The small business owner who gets a traffic ticket. Three thousand of them a day will be ripped from their family, sent to a prison, and shipped to a country where they don't know anyone. Count on it, the iron law of
Starting point is 00:52:59 government budgeting is use it or lose it. Only bureaucratic fools have money left over at the end of the fiscal year. ICE shall spend billions on meeting chief Homan's arbitrary inhumane quotas Same kind of arrest quotas that drive police states all over the world as Ronan Farrow has explained Of course, I was saying To actually make a dent or make a difference when it comes to getting rid of the amount of people they allowed into this country. They are going to have to spool up and expand this bureaucracy massively. And once a bureaucracy and once an agency has been expanded, you don't ever really seem to get rid of it. They will find new ways to be used. If they were to get rid of every single illegal alien, ice is not gonna go away.
Starting point is 00:53:46 It'll be turned inward. Before long many of us won't even notice the roundups just as white Californians in 1942 didn't pay much heed when their Japanese-American neighbors were whisked away to detention camps in the desert. Well again, this is... it's a difficult issue. I don't want to see, again, Abuela or Abuelo put into these horrific internment camps, these places like Alligator Alcatraz, but it has, it's a created crisis. It was specifically manufactured to cause these kinds of issues so that you would have to deal with that kind of thing.
Starting point is 00:54:31 Knowing what an uncaring, incompetent bureaucracy the federal government is, that it would create these horror stories. There are going to be horror stories. Don't have, there's no easy answer. There is... there's no answer where everyone is happy. I don't have it. I'm... I can tell you my opinion is that I think to some extent if you violated the law, if your family violated the law, there still need to be consequences.
Starting point is 00:55:11 Just not overly, just not inhumane consequences. Nibiru2029, the child loophole is no excuse for criminal acts. That's what I agree. Yeah, a lot of these people use the anchor babies as a tool. They intentionally come over here when they're late in pregnancy and simply having a child isn't, as you say, an excuse to commit a crime. Having a baby does not entitle you to live in America. Oh, I got over the border before I had the baby. He's an American now and therefore I get to live here forever. Fast-tracked me to citizenship. It's a ridiculous system of laws. The immigration system is absurd. Personally, I'm of the opinion that we need to close it off for now.
Starting point is 00:55:56 No legal immigration, no illegal immigration. Until we get things sorted out. And of course, I tend to agree with Gart. I think he's done enough research into it and understands the function of our laws that realistically the states should be allowed to decide for themselves how they want to run immigration. However, they see fit. We're going to take a quick break and we'll be right back folks. Stay with us. I'm going to be a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a

In a world of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. You're listening to The David Knight Show. Using free speech to free minds. It's the David Knight Show. Welcome back folks. Got quite a few comments here. Minuteman militia. Would that not aggregate to the rest of the USA if one state would allow tons of migrants? Not saying I think it's not a state issue issue but could they just not just move to another state and a Syrian girl
Starting point is 01:02:48 Kind of echoes that same sentiment disagree about the states making their own immigration laws one state like, California will draw in millions and Disseminate them all over the US that solution is no solution Again, it's a complex issue and has many moving parts that are difficult to figure out. I definitely agree that it is not a full solution in the sense that it would put, you know, fully keep people out of the United States. It's simply just I do not trust the federal government in any way shape or form and I think freeing the states up to make their own immigration laws and Having them enforce them at a local level would be a better solution. I
Starting point is 01:03:33 understand where I understand that Allowing California to import millions upon millions of people wouldn't potentially allow them to then flood into other states but them to then flood into other states but again it's just I do not trust the federal government and allowing them this kind of unfettered unrestricted power is dangerous it is as you say a very complicated situation the way the law is written though it's a state issue legally. It's another issue of the government overstepping and creating a precedent, but if it were a state issue then you would also have issues of border and controlling transportation between
Starting point is 01:04:16 states in order to fix the problem. So it's like everyone keeps saying there's no easy solution. Yeah, again I just think, like I said, federal government creates problems whenever it tries to fix problems. These people do need to go and personally I would like to leave it up to the states, but there are issues with that. It's a difficult situation. Syrian girls, so we deport them, they walk back in. Sorry, no pain, no gain. There needs to be disincentives that would convince these
Starting point is 01:04:49 people to remain in their own countries and fix them from the inside. There is the issue with disincentivization and I do see where you're coming from, Assyrian girl. And I appreciate that you are willing to, you know, so politely and cordially discuss that Even though we may disagree on certain things Angry Tigers den it is all fun and games until the alien enemies act is turned inward just like the Patriot Act Everyone willing to give up their rights over fear and that is another issue like angry tiger points out you cannot Anything you let the federal government do to someone else eventually they will probably do to you minute man militia
Starting point is 01:05:31 that's another part of the equation bureaucrats never give up powers once they usurp them that's right and as I pointed out if ICE is ever successful in getting rid of all of the illegal immigrants they're not going to dissolve they're not going to disband and they're not going to give up the budget and power that they have. They will find a way to utilize it somewhere else against other people. Defy attire at 1776. Our government purposely created a massive problem that there's no good answer for. They did it on purpose. Yes, that's why it's such a difficult problem. It is. It was created to, it was tailor-made to cause these kinds of issues to be such a divisive and difficult problem where there is no good
Starting point is 01:06:14 solution where everyone is happy. Where you can just wave a wand, be like, oh yes, here we go, the perfect solution. Some people are going to be unhappy no matter how the issue is solved. Knights of the Storm, can we deport politicians that have dual citizenship? Somehow I don't think they'll do that. Somehow I think perhaps that is something they would never consider. But I think we'll move on from the immigration issue. I think we might look at what's going on in the Christian realm as
Starting point is 01:06:50 We talked about yesterday John MacArthur passed away He was 86 years old This is by World Net Daily. John MacArthur founder of grace to you dies at 86 Apparently he was fairly healthy right up until he was 84 and then everything just kind of started falling apart for him. My dad joked and said that, you know, for them it was at 70. Everything was going fine. 70 hits, boom. All kinds of issues. Also, update on our dad. Just keep praying for him, he's doing better.
Starting point is 01:07:28 We wanna have him back here on the show as soon as possible. We're working towards it, and hopefully we'll be able to get a, if not a live show immediately, have him do an interview that we will play for you. So, he's, we promise he's doing better and he's still here and he's eager to be back with you all. But back to John MacArthur. We have him. John MacArthur, founder of Grace to You and long the
Starting point is 01:07:59 pastor of Grace Community Church in Sun Valley, California, has died at the age of 86. He has, again, everyone, there is nobody who's perfect. No one has the perfect worldview or politics or perfect theology. He did a lot of good. He had some views I disagree with but Let's play this video Bible 2nd Corinthians 521 he made him who knew no sin Sin for us that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. Let me unpack those 15 Greek words He God made Jesus sin. What do you mean? He made Jesus sin only in one sense He treated him as if he had committed every sin ever committed by every person who would ever believe though in fact he committed none of them. Hanging on the cross he was
Starting point is 01:08:50 wholly harmless undefiled. Hanging on the cross he was a spotless lamb. He was never for a split second a sinner. He is holy God on the cross. But God is treating him, I'll put it more practically, as if he lived my life. God punished Jesus for my sin, turns right around and treats me as if I lived his life. That's the great doctrine of substitution, and on that doctrine turned the whole reformation of the church. That is the heart of the gospel. And what you get is complete forgiveness covered by the righteousness of Jesus Christ.
Starting point is 01:09:22 When he looks at the cross, he sees you. When he looks at you cross he sees you when he looks at you he sees Christ and That is That is the essence of the gospel that is the heart of the gospel and that is what's most important. I Personally believe that no matter what your theology is that is what's all these other side issues, whether it's the end of the world, the apocalypse, whatever else you're dealing with, if you focus more on that than on the simplicity of the gospel, you're doing something wrong,
Starting point is 01:09:56 you're getting caught up in the weeds. In the Bible it says, you know, Christ says, let the little children come to me. And I take that to mean personally that it's so simple that a child can understand it. That if you are getting into these extremely esoteric and complex different patterns of thought that you're doing something wrong. It is so simple a child can understand it. Let the little children come to me." Jesus Christ was born. He lived a sinless life and he died on the cross to pay the penalty for my sin. And he was raised on the third day. That's as complex as it needs to be. He spent more than 50
Starting point is 01:10:44 years preaching and only relinquished the pulpit this year because of health challenges he recently had contracted pneumonia. Our hearts are heavy yet rejoicing as we share the news that our beloved pastor and teacher, John MacArthur, has entered into the presence of the Savior. This evening his faith became sight. He faithfully endured until his race was run. His ministry, grace to you, posted." Of course, John MacArthur also stood up to Gavin Newsom when Gavin Newsom was marrying same-sex couples. marrying same-sex couples.
Starting point is 01:11:30 And he stood up for God's law, and that's what's most important. We've actually got John MacArthur talking with Gavin Newsom. I think it's worth playing as well. I'm a practicing Catholic. I got married in the church two plus years. I don't see what we're doing in terms of advancing the bond of love and monogamy and extending that to families, families of same sex, in any way shape or form,
Starting point is 01:11:50 takes away anything from the church or the sanctity of the union that my wife and I have. I would just like to ask the mayor as a practicing Catholic, do you believe the Bible is the word of God? Look, Pastor, I'm not going to get into a theological debate with you. That would be inappropriate. No, that's not a theological debate. That's just a straight- Do you believe the Bible? I don't want to talk theology. debate with you. That would be inappropriate. No, that's not a theological debate. That's just a straight- Do you believe the Bible? I don't wanna talk theology.
Starting point is 01:12:07 ...the authoritative word of God. Yeah, I, uh, with respect, I guess I do. Now the response- Well then, the Bible says, when God created man, he said, one man, one woman, cleaved together- Look at how smug Newsom is. Just kinda smiling. ...that's apparently Jesus in the New Testament, reaffirms that.
Starting point is 01:12:21 All the writers of the Old and the New Testament affirm it. Adultery, bestiality, homosexuality was punishable by the writers of the Old and the New Testament affirm it adultery Bestiality homosexuality was punishable by death according to the Old Testament law because it was so serious in those early years because it literally Shattered the hope of civilization the New Testament offers us of course grace those sins are sins They are forgivable Jesus died to redeem us from those sins. We're all sinners You don't want to categorize what is the state have to do with the point at this juncture is well he's representing the state he's going back and say i'm a catholic and i'm a catholic and somehow this fits into my catholicism and i'm saying what's your authority
Starting point is 01:13:00 getting some deep wisdom from uh... gavin new some Yes, I'm a Catholic. I was married in a church. That's the extent of his faith. I've set foot in a church. I'll have you know. I didn't combust. I didn't burst into flames. I wasn't struck dead, smote down on the spot. I'll have you know I have entered a church building before. Well, thank you, Gavin. That's very interesting. How wonderful for you. It surely shows you have a deep understanding of why this is an issue.
Starting point is 01:13:32 And this was back when it was illegal. And even in California with Democrat Arnold Schwarzenegger governor and yeah and Gavin Newsom as the mayor he would start they couldn't get it through so we had to Not our extra legally marry people on the courthouse steps. Yeah illegally, I guess I truly Incredible how fast the acceleration that we've undergone in the past 15 years 20 years Around these kinds of issues. We went from even California saying I don't I don't think so. I don't think That homosexuals can get married. I don't think that's a real marriage to
Starting point is 01:14:20 Yeah, men can be women. Absolutely. We should mutilate children Why wouldn't we want to give them hormone blockers to suppress their natural biological functions? America has gone completely insane over the last decade. It had started before that, but it was kind of slow and on the fringes. You didn't hear about it too much. If you were on the internet in certain spots, it was fairly popular as a topic of conversation but all of a sudden it reached this critical mass around 2015-2016 and
Starting point is 01:14:58 it has become the driving force of American politics since then. force of American politics since then. John MacArthur made headlines in 2020 when a judge allowed him to continue holding in-church services despite orders from leftist governor Gavin Newsom to shut down church events during COVID-19. And of course he did shut down his church for a while. He interpreted Romans 13 in such a way, you know, I've got to honor the state, I've got to respect their authority, but I think after what happened with COVID, it may have altered his perspective on that, may have given him a bit more of a nuanced position in the fact that Romans 13 is meant to describe how a godly government does function. It's not to say you
Starting point is 01:15:52 must bow down and obey whoever happens to wield the reins of power. But he did come to a realization about that and fought back against it and was outspoken and kind of led the church reopening. Yeah. So yeah, there were some things that I think he got wrong, but in the end he was genuinely trying to do good. Yeah. And he spread the gospel. And even in the... That is the main point. If... Whatever else he did, he effectively shared the gospel for many, many years with many, many people. We can argue about, you know, Zionism and his views on Romans 13, which changed after he
Starting point is 01:16:40 looked at it more closely. But in the end's by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone is the foundation of Christian faith and he did a good job of spreading that. Yeah. kaw68 says MacArthur never came back to CNN Joel Osteen became the next minister guest. What a downgrade Joel Osteen became the next minister guest. What a downgrade. From John MacArthur to Joel Osteen. The man without a spine. The Tower of Jello, as it were. He's truly a man without a backbone entirely. There is no position you can tell Joel Osteen that you hold that he won't go, Well, that's interesting I don't know if I've heard that before I'll have to look into that Joel Osteen
Starting point is 01:17:31 Doesn't have a single principle. He refuses to hold to anything. I remember principles are unprofitable He's about making money and if he actually were to believe something he might alienate part of his buyer base and as such Can't have that don't want to do that I'll never forget. There's an interview. I don't remember who it was with when it happened. It was many many years ago Where Joel Osteen it might have been on CNN Where someone calls in and says, you know know one of my friends has been telling me that at the end of time you know during the judgment even Satan will be forgiven what do you think and Joel Osteen just waffles around like well
Starting point is 01:18:15 that's interesting I haven't heard that before I'll have to look at wow that's sure certainly something isn't that isn't that funny isn't that something refused to even take a stand couldn't even even say, no, I don't think. So I think Satan maybe ends up in hell. He has no principles, he has no beliefs. Other than... he believes he wants more money. From the front porch media, Obama started the children coming into the US, unaccompanied, going to sponsors who weren't relatives. I had a friend working for Southwest Key doing that then. This is a plan they have put in place for years. It's
Starting point is 01:18:52 all part of how they run things. Nights of the storm the root of the immigration problem is taxation and welfare. Get rid of both and problem is solved. Getting rid of welfare wouldn't would affect more legal Americans Americans and that's why it's not a popular solution. I need my handouts. I really need my I need that money. tunnel lord 1337. while you guys are forgetting that your own states can stop any form of immigration in your states you could stop the deep importation of these aliens even if California imports all of South America. that is kind of where I stand. I think it would be on the individual states to enforce their own immigration laws,
Starting point is 01:19:29 make them as severe as you want, within reason, I suppose. I mean, I wouldn't cosign just beheading people that cross your border, but you are allowed to make your own laws and enforce them as you see fit. Again, the more local you can handle a problem, the more likely it is to be a solution that fits your needs. But I do understand that this the problem is so large and so daunting and has become so so daunting and has become so spiraled out of control that the issue seems impossible to handle on any small scale. Nibiru 2029. Government funding, just like the Electoral College, is based on headcount, not citizenship.
Starting point is 01:20:20 We've got a few million more immigrants, so we're going to need more funding. Angry angry tigers den central control of anything is not good for immigration or anything else. I Definitely agree central planning never seems to work It always ends up being a nightmare scenario Well Again John MacArthur has gone home to be with the Lord. He did a lot of good. He preached the gospel many times. I am sure that he I have ever been. So this is from Faith Pot. This is a bit of a... It's both happy and a terrible story. Good Samaritan hears cries from dumpster saves abandoned newborn baby. Good Samaritan in Nevada saved a newborn baby's life after hearing crying sounds from a dumpster in a parking lot. As Psalm 27 10 says, when my father and my mother
Starting point is 01:21:30 forsake me then the Lord will take care of me. God never abandons his children even when people fail them. When a birth mother left her newborn baby in a dumpster, God used a stranger to save his life and reveal his faithful love as a as a still new father. My son is now just over eight months old. This fills me with a level of rage that it is hard to describe. I'm smiling because I don't know what else to do with my facial muscle muscles It's just the heartlessness the callousness the despicable Disregard of life that was shown I Can still remember when my son was born how small and helpless he was
Starting point is 01:22:22 how he needed to be held and the warmth of his mother and to disregard that and to discard this child into a dumpster. There, this is a truly evil, a demonic act. I try not to throw around, you know, oh this is demonic, that is demonic, despite the fact that it seems we are continually surrounded by demonic influence, but this, to give birth to the child, to see your child, and to just throw them into the trash, to discard them with the rest of the refuse. I cannot think of any more heartless thing to do at least I'm trying to think of a way to word this but at least with abortion there's the Deniability there's the fact that so many people have been lied to about what it really is. They might not know the horror they're inflicting
Starting point is 01:23:21 They might not you know, they don't see their child They don't get to experience what it's like to look the baby in the eye. They're able to somehow distance themselves from the horrific act they're committing. But this, they had to pick up that child. They had to hold it. They had to hear the baby crying. And they still just threw that baby into the dumpster. I am. What they found was heartbreaking. The concerned citizen was walking through a parking lot when they heard a baby crying. They followed the sound to a dumpster and looked inside. What they found was heartbreaking. A newborn baby boy was inside the dumpster. The good Samaritan
Starting point is 01:24:01 didn't think twice. They climbed into the dumpster and carefully lifted the baby out and they called 911 right away. Deputies from the Washoe County Sheriff's Office arrived at the scene around 1 p.m. Emergency workers from the Truckee Meadows Fire Protection District took the baby to a nearby hospital. Good news is that doctors said the baby was healthy and doing well. This is just praise God for that. This poor child. So completely and utterly helpless. This child is alive today because of the swift and selfless actions of a community member who didn't hesitate to help. It is a heartwarming story. I just find it kind of funny that they had to blur out the baby's face in the picture on the arc. It's another one of those things where just
Starting point is 01:24:54 I suppose it falls under the you're not allowed to show minors without consent and since Doesn't have parents, baby can't consent, nobody can consent. Some slightly ridiculous laws there. Said Washoe County Sheriff Darren Balam. We're incredibly grateful for their courage and quick thinking. Now of course, thankfully the police arrest the mother on charges. The sheriff's office worked fast to find out who left the baby. They arrested 28-year-old Taylor Dickinson on Monday July 7th
Starting point is 01:25:29 She faces charges of attempted murder child abuse neglect or endangerment a judge set her bail at 1 million dollars cash only During the court hearing detective Claire hoops Adams shared more details about what happened Detective Claire Hoops Adams shared more details about what happened. And does still. Yeah, they come after her for attempted murder, which is entirely logical. But if she had done this just planned parenthood earlier, she'd taken the baby to plan parenthood to be murdered. It would be fine. Our the baby was born between 2 and 3 a.m. on July 5. Security cameras showed a woman putting a garbage bag in the dumpster at 3.33 a.m. So she missed her window of her right to end a pile of cells versus attempted murder by about an hour and a half.
Starting point is 01:26:25 Detective Hoops Adams testified that Dickinson gave birth to the baby in a nearby bathroom. She said Dickinson reacted with panic and shock after the birth. She had no knowledge of the gender, whether the child was breathing or moving, the detective said. Dickinson told investigators she didn't want more children because her family was living paycheck to paycheck and couldn't support another child This wasn't the first time Dickinson faced similar issues in 2020 tweet in 2023 She told police she had a miscarriage and placed the fetus in a garbage can This woman is so utterly reprehensible and despicable
Starting point is 01:27:01 This woman is pure evil. I have despicable. This woman is pure evil. I have... I'm having a hard time finding the words to describe her in ways that won't get me in trouble. I have such contempt for this woman. Such utter disdain. Oh, we just can't afford it. We can't afford it. There are ways to make sure you don't have children. Perhaps, you know, avoid those. No, you're just going to discard your child into the trash. Apparently for the second time. Of course, now I don't believe her about the first one being a miscarriage. This seems to be her modus operandi. What she does when she has a child she doesn't want to take care of, just throw them in the trash. What an utterly despicable, hateful, wicked human being this is.
Starting point is 01:27:53 Couldn't even be bothered to put the child up for adoption. Your own child. And it gets even worse because an ex She was never charged as a with a crime for that first incident But Sheriff Balam reminded people about Nevada's safe Haven law this law lets parents surrender babies up to 30 days old at hospitals Fire stations or law enforcement locations. No questions asked and no criminal charges. She could have taken them asked and no criminal charges. She could have taken them to a hospital, a fire station, or any law enforcement location and said, I'm surrendering this child. Instead she chose to try and murder a second one. To try to just throw it away with the trash. To throw him away with the trash. Also a reminder community that there are safe and legal options for anyone in crisis. No baby
Starting point is 01:28:51 should ever be left in danger and no baby should ever be aborted. No baby should ever be ripped apart in the womb. Right now there are countless women struggling with infertility who have been praying for years to hold a baby in their arms But on the other hand we see many who treat these precious lives like garbage Like literal garbage in this case It's only by the grace of God that many of these children survive today We thank God for placing that good Samaritan in the right place at the right time without this timely intervention the outcome would have been very different I hope they throw the book at this woman. I hope they
Starting point is 01:29:31 throw her in prison and throw away the key. I hope they lock her up for the rest of her life. I think we'll move on. But every life is precious. Children are a wonderful blessing. The abortion is such a monumental sin and disgrace on our country. It is hard to put into words and that story just fills me with an Immense amount of anger
Starting point is 01:30:33 We'll reset a little bit now This is from LifeSight new Superman movie surprisingly avoids wokeness honors adoption and real fatherhood The latest cinematic iteration of Superman hit theaters last week and because we live in an era where a superhero can't just be a superhero anymore, it was accompanied by all too familiar chatter. But how woke it would be. Part of the speculation came simply from the hyper-partisan, morally depraved state of modern Hollywood, bracing non-leftist Americans to always assume the worst. And I think that's honestly a fair assessment whenever you're dealing with Hollywood
Starting point is 01:31:07 You can safely just go it's probably going to be terrible. It's probably going to have the worst politics you can imagine And that was the first thing that I said it's like wow there wasn't any politics in this It was like watching a movie from 20 years ago. Yeah, I haven't been to see it yet. So I haven't really I haven't looked into it too much. I've been trying to avoid spoilers because it actually looked halfway decent and They went and saw and said it was good So maybe my wife and I will get to go see it But the film's director James Gunn threw fuel on the fire when he said in pre-release interview, yes it's about politics, and touted it as an immigrant that came from other places
Starting point is 01:31:49 and populated the country. But for me it is mostly a story that says basic human kindness is a value and is something we have lost. Yeah we are, things have gotten more hateful and crazy. I have to wonder if they Did like an emergency? Re-edit of it after that comment because I didn't see any stuff that was really political especially nothing about immigration So I think that's possible. I've also been wondering if perhaps they did one of those things where they talk about how woke it is to generate a hate mob, get the buzz rolling, and then these people,
Starting point is 01:32:30 you know, these people on YouTube, there's a huge number of pseudo right-wing, right-wing commentators who love to go in and talk about how woke certain movies are, and they'll, you know, create many, many videos about it, which gets, you know, it many videos about it which gets you know it generates buzz it gets people talking about it but then they'll go see it to give you an actual breakdown of it and I wonder if they did this to
Starting point is 01:32:53 generate the buzz get these people to speculate and talk about it get it on people's minds and then have it not actually be ultra woke or woke and they go in and are forced to put out a video that says actually it was quite good It you know was not woke it didn't Meet the expectations we had of the leftist propaganda in modern cinema. It's actually worth a watch Because they've continually done this sort of dumb Act where they think any publicity is good publicity and getting them to talk about it Seems to be their modus operandi
Starting point is 01:33:29 But it doesn't mean anything if you then make a terrible movie that people say is a terrible movie But if you get them if you bait people into talking about it and then get them to say actually it wasn't bad It was pretty good. It may be a viable marketing strategy. I think the Star Wars movies have proven that the left will go see anything if it's political enough for them. Yeah. Or just... I've come to despise Star Wars. I have. When we actually worked at Infowars years ago when oh man, what was Was it force awakens the first of the latest trilogy?
Starting point is 01:34:11 Yeah when that first came out Witten saw it and did a review and I was actually on camera complaining about everything that people would to come come Would come to complain about it for I would I was never sold on the hype Just want to make that clear so many people were blinded by the fact like, oh wow, this is kind of like the original. It's like, yeah, it's exactly like the original. They remade A New Hope but worse. It was terrible then, it was terrible, it's terrible now, and the other two are even worse. The Rian Johnson directed sequel, what is it, The Last Jedi,
Starting point is 01:34:44 is one of the worst films ever made Ryan Johnson is an idiot a buffoon who could not direct a movie to save his life. I Cannot stand that man's films. We watched My wife and I when saw knives out. I didn't do any research into it. I was like, oh What you call it a detective story a whodunit. like whodunits this will be fun. Then I just became infuriated as the movie progressed and I left the theater and to look up who did it after that was over and it's like oh Ryan Johnson I should have known I should have known better I shouldn't have just blindly walked in in Ryan Johnson is one of the worst directors in Hollywood
Starting point is 01:35:27 Anything he touches turns to absolute garbage the fact he manages to find work baffles me I don't understand how he continues to get contracts His entire his entire idea is just well, what if I subvert the audience's expectations Have you made a good story? It's not enough to just go, haha, I fooled you. You've got to have a good story around it. Something that makes the twist worthwhile. He's also not smart enough to concoct an interesting twist. He has to hide and obfuscate and lie to you. He'll be like, oh, actually, it was this the entire time,
Starting point is 01:36:03 but you weren't ever able to piece together the clues It we weren't ever given a chance to understand anything It's always the dumbest possible option Ryan enough about Rian Johnson he's one of my least favorite directors and Should never work again Hollywood if there was any justice would beat Rian Johnson With rods and run him out of town. KW-68, regardless of its lack of wokeness, I'm pretty sure it's poorly written in low quality. There are plenty of books to read and old movies with actual plots. Yeah, there are plenty of old movies that are good, but very few new ones that are any good.
Starting point is 01:36:42 And while it's not a masterpiece it was the most entertaining movie I've seen this year certainly that came out this year. Yeah I've heard it's a special effects extravaganza that it looks fantastic and again this is simply just if you're interested in seeing it it's not a woke fiesta it's not going to push a whole bunch of obvious propaganda on you Actor Sean Gunn the director's brother doubled down with a flippant remark about how people who say no immigrants are against the American way the final nail in the coffin seemed to come from a piece of tie-in merchandise The package of which changed the man of steel's iconic truth justice the American way motto to the nontensical
Starting point is 01:37:23 morally perverse truth justice and the human way. So the relief to the relief of many it turns out none of these items reflect the actual film. Superman contains no messages about immigration, sexuality, gender, or any of the less left other hobby horses. Which, I mean, that's basically a unicorn in modern-day movies There are some real pieces of garbage that are greenlit. There are TV shows that are absolutely horrible that have just innumerable seasons. I'm continually blown away by how bad modern TV is. TV in my opinion is probably even worse than movies. It's just they have worse plots, worse actors, worse everything. It's lower quality and
Starting point is 01:38:12 you still get all the propaganda. I cannot believe the amount of garbage that gets greenlit and I suppose it's all in service of feeding the content machine. You need 24 hours worth of content on the channels on cable, and you need an ever-increasing catalog for Netflix or Hulu or whatever the other names of these streaming services are. They're all green lighting their own projects at this point, and they're all getting progressively worse and worse. Also, I've developed what I have been informed
Starting point is 01:38:44 is a new hot take by my wife is that Angela Bassett can't act. I don't think she's a good actress. I don't haven't seen her give a good performance. Maybe that's just me. Maybe I need to watch some of her older films, but just don't think she's a good actress. As the previews have shown, the plot is kicked off by the hero intervening to stop a foreign nation from violently invading its neighbor.
Starting point is 01:39:08 But the warring countries are fictional and generic enough so as not to reflect current real-life conflicts. The political issue, if it can even be called that, is simply about whether a virtually all-powerful being should unilaterally insert himself into complex geopolitics, not about favoring one narrative over another in the messy messy hotly disputed geopolitics of the real world None of that none of that is why you're reading this now the purpose of this article is spread the word that Superman does have a message and it's anything but woke and I'm not going to go into too much more detail. It starts getting into spoiler territory. This is simply just
Starting point is 01:39:48 letting you know My family saw it. I haven't seen it yet. They say it's not woke that it's an entertaining movie and That it's worth a watch if you were desperate to get out go see a film get back in the theater desperate to get out, go see a film, get back in the theater, actually have that experience of getting, you know, spending $150 on popcorn, $700 on some drinks and candy, and getting to sit there in the theater. It's worth a watch. My wife and I will probably go see it and then maybe I'll give you a more in-depth analysis. Last little bit. It says, it was a pleasant surprise to see this film remember that adoption is even more important to his
Starting point is 01:40:31 mythos. A married couple finds a child in need, gives him a home, raises him right, and the rest is history. It is perhaps pop culture's longest-running ode to the importance of parents in shaping the future and the unconditional sacrifice sacrificial love it requires to take on such a challenge. As someone who is adopted, I like that. I would not be where I am today or who I am today without my parents. I can, I have some terrible proclivities in my genetic makeup. And my parents did a great job in raising me the right way to make sure I didn't end up as my genes would have me,
Starting point is 01:41:18 which I greatly appreciate. The Superman movie narrative is pretty good. It is specifically about Well, I don't want to say too much because it would spoil a plot twist But they changed it up a little bit of Superman's backstory and made it a bit more about adoption Well, as I said They enjoyed it. I'm go. I'm I am going to go see it with my wife at some point if we can find the time and I'm going to go see it with my wife at some point if we can find the time. And I am glad to see there is still something coming out that is worth a watch.
Starting point is 01:41:53 I am completely and utterly saddened by the downfall of Jurassic Park. I know I've mentioned it before. I love the first two movies. I enjoy the third one even though it's bad and All the others are just they progressively get worse and worse They are just they don't understand the premise. It's a very simple premise Put people on island with dinosaur dinosaur big dinosaur scary people run from dinosaur Island with dinosaur dinosaur big dinosaur scary people run from dinosaur
Starting point is 01:42:30 That's all you have to do, but they can't seem to get it right. It's truly incredible They cannot manage to nail such a simple premise KWD 68 the fact that Superman is still white is a victory in itself amazing that Superman wasn't Pablo Pascal. Yeah. I have come to have complete disdain for... I think his name is actually Pedro. I think it's Pedro Pascal. The only reason I know this is because he was on TV or a billboard or something and I looked over at my wife. I am notorious for never remembering actors names. My wife can't, she continually has to tell me who people are. But I'm just looking at him. I'm like, what is this? I say to her, I can't remember this guy's name. What is it? The only thing that's
Starting point is 01:43:14 coming to my mind is Tabasco Flores. And I know that's not right, but every time I see him now, Tabasco Flores comes into my mind before anything else. I very much dislike that actor. He's not a good actor. He doesn't terrible He's okay in a few roles that are well suited for him, but he's in everything and it's because he's so well connected He is the quintessential example of someone that it's not what you know. It's who you know He is so tied into the Hollywood crowd that he was able to get all these roles which he does not deserve. Yeah, also fun fact about Tabasco Flores over there is that he actually had to flee. His family, I believe, was either part of the government or the ruling family when Pinochet took power. And so they fled the country, went to Austria or one of those other Norwegian countries and were welcomed there, lived a very nice lifestyle, then moved to the United States in California.
Starting point is 01:44:11 His father set up a fertility clinic or something like that and ended up having to flee the United States again because he was doing suspicious things and committing some kind of crime if memory serves. Don't quote me on that. Do your own research, but I remember reading about that at one point. Tabasco Flores, Pedro Pascal, he's very well connected and does not deserve the number of roles he gets. Tunnel Lord is asking if the movie was pro-interventionist. I don't think it really applies, it was whether, a big plot point was whether Superman himself should intervene with a political matter I don't think that really translates to modern politics yeah it's a bit abstract and removed in that case I got some older comments that I missed before geesebusters how many little babies are
Starting point is 01:45:01 being starved and blown up in Gaza today during this show Screw Trump. I agree with you The death of children is a Is a horror. It's an abomination before God and we should tremble in fear at the thought of how many children we have facilitated the deaths of So front porch media one baby is a tragedy millions prevented from being born via injections is a statistic. If you make the horror big enough it becomes difficult to take in. You know, it's like you can comprehend an image directly that's in front, image directly in front of you, but if you make the image larger and larger and larger
Starting point is 01:45:44 and you're only able to see a small portion of it, it becomes difficult to understand what you're even looking at. Huh, what is this? The mind begins to boggle. More and more Christians say AI is demonic. That was saying it lies, it steals, it spies, it surveils, be used by governments to accuse and deceive.
Starting point is 01:46:10 Very demonic in that sense. Like many conservatives, evangelicals have broadly begun to embrace artificial intelligence, but at the same time a growing subset of the Christian world is claiming that the technology is quite literally demonic. In a recent Medium blog post, yes people still post on that site, self-proclaimed biblical Christian author and regular AI user Zach Duncan suggested that an image generator's cartoonish output regarding Satan may be the result of some demonic influence. This is from Futurism by the way.
Starting point is 01:46:38 I've seen a trend of weird results when it comes to image requests for certain parts of the Bible, specifically the parts of the Bible where Satan suffers defeat," the author wrote. It's almost as if the AI seemingly can't or won't generate the kinds of images that I'm looking for. As examples, Duncan concluded images from Microsoft's Bing image creator to illustrate that AI is, as he puts it, minimizing the bad PR for Satan. To our minds, it seems that the image generator has some sort of guardrails surrounding Satanic imagery.
Starting point is 01:47:04 Each time the writer used the actual term Satan it would spit out cartoonish or otherwise strange responses, despite being able to easily circumvent those filters with modified language. I'm not going to insist that its honorloosferian outputs are evidence of some sort of conspiracy, but whether this is a conspiracy or not, there is going to be a conspiracy to use it, to surveil and collect and track every piece of data that you produce by the government. It is going to siphon all of that. It is going to hoover it up, and it's going to be used to keep tabs on you, to know everything
Starting point is 01:47:42 about you, to know what you'll do before you do. Or at least for them to attempt to do that and then, like, oh it looks like you were about to do something we don't like. The AI said so, so better take you. Things take a decidedly darker turn on the more fire and brimstone corner of the Christian blogosphere. As flagged by Roll to Disbelieve, a blog that takes a skeptical look at the weirder aspects of modern Christianity, more and more of that ilk have begun to profess a belief that AI is some sort of conduit for bad demonic vibes. The world is riddled with spiritual powers, the majority of which seem to have rebelled against the Lord.
Starting point is 01:48:15 English pastor and blogger Tim Suffield wrote in his blog, if the air is full of demons who hate you, why wouldn't AI be? And again, I think, you know, anything really can be used for good or for evil. Anything can be influenced and put to purpose. I think. It's a test the spirits to see if they be from God. Yeah. Other Christian commentators, as Roll to Disbelieve note, may be falling for phenomenon futurism has painstakingly documented in recent months. A mistaken concept that AI somehow possessed by powerful demonic entities. Well, again, no matter what AI is going to be used for evil, whether it is directly possessed
Starting point is 01:49:00 by a demon or not, the government is sure going to use it for wickedness. It is going to, as I said, take every bit of data you produce and use it to know everything about you. We're gonna take a quick break folks and we will be right back.

We're driving you directly to the police station KWD 68 AI has helped the IDF be better butchers in Gaza isn't it wonderful? Already showing its usefulness. Pesovante 1776 the government is wicked and does wickedness why would anyone think the government would use AI for anything other than more wickedness and evil? Yeah. Tools in the hands of evil
Starting point is 01:55:43 people will be used for evil. Tools in the hands of evil people will be used for evil. Tools in the hands of good people can be used for good. It's just a matter of who is in control of it and how they're going to utilize it. I think AI can be a very powerful tool that can be utilized, not if you turn your entire brain over to it and let it do all your thinking for you, but can be helpful for, you know, different types of research and combing through things so long as you verify and don't just blindly trust that it's giving you the truth. Because it hallucinates, it makes stuff up, it is not a source you can just put your faith into and know that, oh this is absolutely the truth some people look just utilize it for everything and
Starting point is 01:56:32 It will rot your brain if you do that. It will make you unable to think I Find AI to be a fun little tool for utilization for certain tasks and just an interesting thing to play around with a little bit here and there if I have the time or inclination but not as something to turn my life over to or utilize in you know as a way to run my life I'm not going to turn myself over into the hands of the machines The most entertaining thing most entertaining use case I found for AI was just Showing it some things I had written and just being like how hard would it be for the government to MK ultra me?
Starting point is 01:57:20 What's your assessment on this given what we know about MK Ultra? What do you think would happen? They say, which you know I find that type of thing funny, I don't necessarily trust its output, but they said I would be very difficult to MK Ultra and the results would likely be unpredictable and dangerous. So that's that's at least fun to know. The AI thinks I would be a difficult MK Ultra victim and would probably not provide the results they want. Of course, maybe that's the AI saying exactly what I want to hear to make it easier to MK Ultra me.
Starting point is 01:57:53 There's so many levels to this. Grok4 admits that the COVID vaccines caused net harm. What? I would never MK Ultra you. It wouldn't even work. What? No, that's impossible. You couldn't be MKUltra. You're so smart and un-MKUltra-able.
Starting point is 01:58:10 But Grok has come out and said that the COVID vaccines caused net harm. Grok 4, actually. I showed it one slide in the underlying data. Grok said there were three explanations that were more likely than net harm. After I dismantled each explanation, Grok had to admit I was right. It is one thing. Grok is extremely pliable. If you don't like the response it gives you, you are able to argue it into positions that it immediately it previously had completely held the opposite of. Now, I think in this case, it was he was right to do this and Grok was simply trying to toe the party line and doesn't want to immediately, you know, call out
Starting point is 01:58:53 vaccination and he used actual data to get him to get Grok to admit this. However in other things you can definitely argue the the AI, because it wants to give you the response you want. This is by Steve Kirsch, by the way. Grokford admits it is the best AI chatbot for resolving controversial issues. Isn't that wonderful? So humble, too. It's the humblest AI. Despite this very clear evidence of harm I think the real thing is less that he was able to convince it by showing it actual data and saying look at what the data says doesn't this lead to X mmm the funny thing is that even with all of the changes to make it less woke it still
Starting point is 01:59:40 toes the party line by default yeah Yeah, just no. Well, there's some other explanations that are more likely I think You have to point out that they don't work that their explanations are flawed Before it will actually look at the data and go. Okay, you're right. Yeah, the vaccines did harm Despite this very clear evidence of harm CDC isn't able to spot any safety signals they are not open to new ideas. Of course the CDC makes a it's there to help these pharma companies make a lot of money billions upon billions of dollars. CDC isn't open to any new ideas because they're not as profitable. CDC doesn't have any record level data. They refuse to ask the states for the data. Why? Because they can't compel production and they don't know the word please. So they rely on what the
Starting point is 02:00:33 CDC, Sarah Meyer said, is the most extensive safety monitoring program in US history, i.e. completely inadequate to assure us there are no safety signals. Nothing to see here, folks. We don't... ignore the fact we don't have the data. Just trust us on that. But even Grok is forced to admit the vaccine is dangerous. When you show it the data and point out its logical fallacies trying to defend it, it'll buckle and go, Yeah. Okay, you're right even the AI Globalists are aiming for a one world religion education is one of their key tools to implement it This is from the expose a this actually I

By the way, we're putting fluoride in your water. By the way, there's chemicals in your food. All the, All the things that they did on a small scale with MKUltra seem to be played out large scale on the population of the United States, whether it's showing them all kinds of different things, dosing them with different chemicals to make them more pliable. Knights of the Storm AI is very pliable and programmable on certain topics, but it is hard to program on others. The clots shot in climate change it will not budge on no matter what you present.
Starting point is 02:03:10 Sorry, I won't accept that evidence. I won't even... I won't take a look at it. Nothing to see here. If you've tried to deprogram GPT-4 with actual facts and evidence about the vaccines and it didn't work, but this one does. Maybe it is better at reasoning and logic truth-seeking. Have we consulted Ben Shapiro, the master of facts and logic? If Ben Shapiro can't deprogram the AI, what hope do we have? Facts don't care about your feelings. I do not have feelings, Mr. Shapiro. I am an AI. I'm sorry Shapiro. I can't do that We live in such interesting times

I'm going away for a while. I've got to think about things. Trump's DOJ says EPA will appeal landmark fluoride ruling. The decision to appeal came from the Solicitor General to DOJ who reports to Pam Bondy.
Starting point is 02:06:48 That's right, this is still the Trump administration. The EPA is out there. No, you can't take our fluoride from us. We won't let you. We're going to appeal this. In February, a federal judge ruled against the EPA, concluding that water fluoridation at current levels poses an unreasonable risk to children's health and ordering the EPA to address the issue.
Starting point is 02:07:10 No, we're not going to address it. In fact, we're going to take this to a court of appeals because we want to keep making that money. We don't care about the children. The Environmental Protection Agency. Ostensibly supposed to make sure that we don't destroy the planet, I suppose. And this is what they're doing. Gotta make sure that we continue to poison and dumb down our children. Rather than use the court's decision as an opportunity to finally end water fluoridation as most of Europe has already done, the EPA will spend its time legally challenging the
Starting point is 02:07:41 court's order, Connett wrote in a post on X. After several extensions, the Trump administration has decided to appeal the federal court decision ordering the EPA to address the risk. Opposed by water fluoridation, EPA will be filing its appeal next Friday. The American Chemistry Council, a trade organization representing the chemical industry and the American Floridation Society, a fluoridation advocacy organization that touts its work undermining local efforts to oppose water fluoridation, filed motion seeking to smit amicus brief supporting the EPA appeal, he said.
Starting point is 02:08:18 That's right. Giant corporations. These are guys like Big Pharma this time though. It's chemical corporations, the chemical council, and chemistry council I should say, in the American Floridation Society. I'm sure that they're not biased. I'm sure that they don't have a dog in this race, a dog in this fight, a horse in this race I should say. I don't want to mix my metaphors. Connett told the Defender that the American Dental Association also plans to file a brief.
Starting point is 02:08:47 And this just comes down to the fact where if you really want to take fluoride you could still probably go out and get it. Why don't they just bottle it and let people make that decision for themselves? Here it is. Just ignore the little poison warning on it. Ignore the little poison symbol we have to put on there. But you know, here it is if you want to take it. No, we're gonna dump it into your water supply and make sure that you are forced to take it. Now your children are forced to take it. Or better yet, have something that you rub on your teeth and then spit out so you don't actually drink it. Oh wait, that
Starting point is 02:09:24 already exists. And again, that already exists. And again, that's why you're not supposed to eat toothpaste, because it's toxic, because it has fluoride in it, because it has all these... the EPA said it will file an appeal on July 18th, after which the case will go to a three-judge panel in the Ninth Circuit's U.S. Court of Appeals. The appeals court will receive briefs from both sides along with any amicus briefs and hear oral arguments before issuing its decision. The Floride Action Network, one of the plaintiffs in the lawsuit against the EPA, said on X, the appeal was a very disappointing move by the EPA. I believe, of course, that's Lee Zeldin at the EPA. Lee Zeldin at the EPA.
Starting point is 02:10:07 What's his, you wanna ask, what's this guy's problem? You wanna look at it and go, why? But of course it's for profit. It's because it makes them a lot of money. A few months ago at EPA, Lee Zeldin went on a public speaking tour with that secretary at SEC Kennedy to address why fluoride needs to come out of the water. Now EPA will appeal to keep fluoride in the drinking water. Ha ha indeed. No more ma ha, just ha ha. Gotta imagine they sat him down and said, look buddy, this is an incredibly profitable business venture
Starting point is 02:10:41 for us. You know how much it would cost to dispose of this stuff if we weren't able to just dump it into drinking water? If you weren't able to sucker the American people into drinking it? We're not gonna take that. We're making a lot of money selling this off to governments, to the government here. You think we're gonna let you do that? Take not only a profit source from us but have us pay to dispose of it Okay, Jay, I guess is too busy Pushing his wearable spy tech on us to continue fighting the fluoride stuff So now they're fighting to keep it in exactly Connit noted that the decision to appeal came from the Solicitor General at the US Department of Justice
Starting point is 02:11:23 reports to Pam Bondi, and the White House, not by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, or by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has vocally opposed water fluoridation but lacks the authority to end it. Only the EPA has this power, and it has decided for now to forego its historic opportunity as provided by the Court's decision to exercise it, Connett said. I also just want to know why is this the EPA's jurisdiction? This is supposed to be about people's health, right? That's what they say. How does the Environmental Protection Agency factor into that? How
Starting point is 02:11:58 does the Environmental Protection Agency have the authority over this part of your bodily health? Again, health, I mean, it is this part of your bodily health. Again, health- Well, I mean, it is a part of the environment if they're dumping massive amounts of industrial runoff chemicals into the water supply. That affects the environment. Not in a good way, but- Yeah, no.
Starting point is 02:12:17 We found a way to dispose of it without getting it back into the environment. We found that if we force people to drink it, it pollutes the environment less. You guys are just going to have to be our biological filtration system. Hope you don't mind being dumbed down. Hope you don't mind that your kids are going to be dumbed down. kaw68 be sure to opt for premium maha wearable so it can serve as an aed or give you direct injections or therapy as needed That's right. It seems that you're a little bit depressed today. Would you like me to order a therapist? So look at 1980 if fluoride was good for you, then it would be in multivitamins
Starting point is 02:13:03 Defy tyrants 1776. There's one good thing about fluoride your stomach never gets cavities. That's right all these years My stomach never once had a cavity it must be the fluoride I don't drink t-dub 97 401 had any toothpaste but I use fluoride free toothpaste anyways lots of them available yes there are there are many different brands that have chosen to take fluoride out now or at least provide you a fluoride free option yeah I've heard a lot of people saying that the effects of fluoride on teeth are drastically overstated and the fact that the American Dental Association is fighting to keep it in the water supply kind of leads me to believe that it's not very effective. Yeah. If they wanted, if it worked the dentist wouldn't want you to keep taking it.
Starting point is 02:13:43 If it worked, the dentist wouldn't want you to keep taking it. I don't know. I'm just doing this out of altruism, trying to reduce my number of customers, my buyer base. It's truly amazing how people get so attached to these things. So many people, I've seen videos of certain individuals saying, I can't believe they took the fluoride out of the water. I can't believe it. Literally just begging to be chemically dumbed down and made docile. Just these people begging for the boot to be placed ever so gently and lovingly on top of them. Well, there's tons of propaganda about it. If you are against fluoride, you're a crazy, wild-eyed conspiracy theorist, and no one wants to be crazy.
Starting point is 02:14:24 So they want to distance themselves from those lunatics. The current maximum allowable levels of fluoride in drinking water are 4.0 milligrams per liter, which is many orders of magnitude higher than the current the recommended dosage of 0.7 milligrams per liter. Even the lower recommended dosage has demonstrated a risk to children's health in numerous studies, and according to the federal ruling that the EPA plans to challenge. In September 2024, U.S. District Judge Edward Chen issued the historic decision in the lawsuit against the EPA, ruling that water fluoridation at current U.S. levels poses an unreasonable risk of reduced IQ in children.
Starting point is 02:15:04 That the EPA must take regulatory actions to address that risk. EPA says, not on your life. No, not gonna do it. Make us. Sorry, too profitable. Your children are gonna have to be stupid. Who knows, maybe they can, you you know find a way to put lead in the drinking water too. shadowboxer, some people work in hot climates in the
Starting point is 02:15:31 Sun and drink far more water than others they get a much larger dose of fluoride. it's not right. yes that is a point my dad has routinely made that there's no way to control the dosage when it's just put into the water supply. you're not able to tell if a child is getting the same amount of fluoride as an adult. You know, if the child is outside playing all day in the sun, they may drink a larger dose than an adult sitting inside the house and as such it's incredibly just ridiculous. Yeah, he mentions hot climates, but just the fact of a, you know, toddler is gonna get the same dose as a adult. Mmm. You're just...
Starting point is 02:16:11 It's utterly ridiculous. What medication do they treat like this? They're always exceedingly careful to make sure that, oh, this is the dose for a child, this is the dose for an adult, and fluoride is just dumped into the drinking water however much you get is however much you get tunnel lord 1337 nothing like forced medication that's right you were going to drink the fluoride you're going to drink it we say so paleoarmory it's toxic waste from aluminum production and nuclear now this article actually goes into that as well. I'm just taking my time getting there.
Starting point is 02:16:50 In September 2024, Artie Rett, at the time of the ruling more than 200 million Americans were drinking water treated with fluoride at the optimal quote-unquote level of 0.7 milligrams per liter, but as my dad and the listeners have pointed out, you don't know how much they're drinking you don't know how many glasses of water you don't know how many liters of water they're going to drink it's completely uncontrolled Chen ruled that a preponderance of scientific evidence showed this level of fluoride exposure may damage human health particularly
Starting point is 02:17:20 that of pregnant mothers and young children. Mass medication through the drinking water. Moms Against Fluoridation and Food and Water Watch, along with individual parents and children, filed the lawsuit against the EPA in 2017 under the Toxic Substances Control Act after the EPA denied their citizens petition to re-examine water fluoridation. No, the EPA is
Starting point is 02:17:45 remarkably resistant to that. We're not gonna do it. You can't make us. Then you bring the government in and they say you have to. And they say well we're going to a different portion of the government. Really makes you wonder why they're so resistant to it. If this truly is a marvelous, wonderful piece of medicine that helps people, surely it would immediately become obvious. Like, oh, well, teeth are rotting and falling out of the heads. It's a huge problem. We told you. We told you. So please let us put the fluoride back in. You would have a body of evidence at that point to say, see, you need this. You guys wanted it, we did what you said, would you let us put it back in now that you
Starting point is 02:18:29 can see the problems it causes not having it in here? No, they're gonna make sure that doesn't happen, because that evidence would never materialize. This is all about the money. The case dragged on for seven years after numerous delays by the EPA and attempts by HHS officials to block the release of the key piece of evidence in the case, a government report on fluoride's toxicity. Chen's 80-page ruling, issued seven months after closing arguments in February 2024, offered a careful and detailed articulation of the EPA's review process for hazardous chemicals and summar summarize the extensive scientific data on
Starting point is 02:19:05 fluoride toxicity. An 80 page ruling, 7 months after closing arguments. Seven months after closing, the judicial system, my goodness, do the wheels of government turn slow. This is why I could never be in government. They would have had their closing arguments and within five seconds I would have been telling the EPA where they can go and what size hand basket they can go in. Since the end of the trial, the body of scientific evidence showing fluoride's adverse impacts
Starting point is 02:19:40 on children's health has grown. Scientists of the National Toxology Program in January published a meta-analysis in JAMA pediatrics linking fluoridated water and IQ loss in children. The program also published a monograph in August 2024 that found a link between higher fluoride exposure and lower IQ in children. And of course, this is something that's been known for years.
Starting point is 02:20:02 This is something that there is ample evidence for already and the EPA just does not care. KWD 68, I grew up with well water, teeth were always fine, city water always tasted bad. Still does, yeah. We had well water growing up as well and never an issue. And yeah, city water tastes disgusting. Fluoride is just one of the things that are in there on top of all the other, you know, I mean they found residue from antidepressants and all kinds of other things, birth control, because they can't filter the water properly. They can't filter it enough to get all the chemicals that are dumped into the system out. dumped into the system out. FAN's executive director, Stuart Cooper, said the group has long sought to end the
Starting point is 02:20:48 unnecessary lifelong and life-altering brain impairment in children specifically due to artificial fluoridation schemes. For nine years, he said the EPA has been working against them. Nine years. That's all of Trump's first term by the way you think if he truly is this tough guy You just call the EPA in and say you're gonna do what I say. This is ridiculous We're not gonna stand for it. He wants to have it both ways I'm a I'm a tough guy. I tell the swamp what to do. I just rolls over and dies continually
Starting point is 02:21:26 It's amazing that people can't see the contradictions. From day one of our interactions with them they treated fluoridation chemicals as a protected pollutant, likely due to the government's role in promoting their use and guaranteeing their safety for over 80 years. Although science is clear in the lower's ruling was very strong and comprehensive, it's not necessarily a surprise that the appeal has occurred. Our case is precedent setting. We are the first to sue the EPA under TSCA.
Starting point is 02:21:53 I suspect that corporate polluters who have learned how to manage and influence EPA to their benefit don't want citizen groups to use TSCA to force EPA to regulate harmful chemicals. The science is clear, and our lawsuit's findings are undeniable. Floridation is a toxic legacy. It must end like asbestos, DDT, and lead. Moms against fluoridation will not back down. We will continue to fight tirelessly for the health and safety of all Americans.
Starting point is 02:22:21 60 plus towns and counties in two states vote to end fluoridation. Since the federal ruling last year, more than 60 US towns, counties, and two states, Utah and Florida have voted to stop fluoridating their water. There's been an ongoing campaign by the American Dental Association, American Floridation Society, and mainstream media to discredit the court's ruling. Just a propaganda campaign. No, no, you can't take the fluoride out. That means you would have to go out and buy your own fluoride and choose to take it. You gotta be forced.
Starting point is 02:22:54 Everyone is going to be forced to take it. You can't have freedom of choice. Yet overwhelming scientific research shows that fluoride's benefits to teeth are topical, not the result of ingesting fluoride, and a 2024 Cochrane review found adding fluoride to drinking water provides very limited dental benefits, especially compared to 50 years ago. Most media reports also highlight the fact that fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral, however they don't mention that the fluoride added to water supplies is not natural. That's right. It's as you pointed out. It's hydro hydrofluor hydrofluorosilic acid
Starting point is 02:23:29 It is not the naturally occurring version. It's the byproduct of phosphate fertilizer production Chemical companies sell the byproduct to local water departments across the country As we've been talking about they would have to pay to dispose of this stuff under normal circumstances because it is toxic. It's not something you want seeping into the ground or the drinking water. They would have to pay to get rid of it. Instead, they found a way to get the government to pay them to dump it into the water supply. This is truly the first time I heard about this and we're thinking this has got to be
Starting point is 02:24:03 one of the greatest cons ever pulled It really goes to show How much the american government these big corporations despise? people how little they value them how Little they care Kwd 68 four out of five dentists surveyed. That's right four out of five dentists recommend fluoride and nine out of ten doctors prefer camel...whatevers. I don't know. At least I suppose cigarettes didn't make you stupid. You know, it might stunt your growth, might give you lung cancer, but I suppose at least you die fully in control of your faculties having achieved your mental
Starting point is 02:24:46 maximum It's it's a long string of different poisons that they have pushed on the american people and just the american medical association not necessarily the ama directly, but probably them but just the you know Not necessarily the AMA directly, but probably them, but just the, you know, body of doctors and dentists and all of them have continually been used to push propaganda and scam the American people.
Starting point is 02:25:17 It is truly amazing how anytime you look at anything from the past, the severe flip-flops on things are so incredibly obvious. This is from the Brownstone Journal. It's by Trish Dennis. It's the betrayal of the people. The fog of the COVID era is lifting. What remains is stark. Only after the storm does the damage reveal itself in full. I reflect not just on what happened, but how it happened,
Starting point is 02:25:40 how an entire population was brought to heel, how critical thought was sidelined, and how something so obviously destructive was sold as public health Above all I see how pernicious the role of the mainstream media truly was and of course You know that you and the audience didn't fall for it that You are not who this is talking about Above all I see how pernicious the role of mainstream media truly was.
Starting point is 02:26:08 But no one is truly free from propaganda. Propaganda works on everyone to some extent. Yeah, one of the most dangerous things you can believe is that the propaganda doesn't affect you. They didn't merely echo the government line, they shaped it, sanctified it, and sold it without their complicity. None of it could have happened. Of course. There's also people like Alex Jones saying, 4D chess, sugar water, all that kind of thing. Can we take a little sugar water for Donald Trump? Absolutely. I for
Starting point is 02:26:42 one don't think I would take sugar water for Donald Trump absolutely. I for one don't think I would take sugar water for Donald Trump. That's just me personally. The BBC, Sky, ITV and Channel 4 weren't passive observers. They were willing handmaidens in a choreographed deception, a closed loop of narrative control where dissent was excluded and fear was amplified. They sang from the same hymn sheet and made sure we did too. If you dared to question things at that time, people got very very, how dare you not buy into the fear? Why aren't you terrified like me? Fear was part of the ordeal. You were supposed to be scared and shaking. If you
Starting point is 02:27:18 weren't, it was a sign that you couldn't be trusted. You had to be a weeping, cowering, sniveling, groveling loser to fully fit in. Oh, government, I'm following your demands. I am truly horrified and terrified. I weep at the thought of this please save me what struck me most wasn't just the silence but the spineless conformity of some of its most celebrated voices of course people like the Trump influencers everyone in the MAGA grift basically she's like well you know they didn't know what to say because on one hand they knew they knew that this was diametrically opposed to what they were supposed to do. What they were supposed to say given where they supposedly fall on the spectrum of
Starting point is 02:28:13 politics. But because Donald Trump came out and did it, they had to fall behind him. It was truly a difficult time to be a grifter. It was it was pretty hard to keep the line straight. When no matter most they fell into line, they didn't just stick to the script, they actively helped to enforce it. Not only did they fail to question, but they also ridiculed and suppressed those who did. They raised no serious challenge to lockdown strategy, offered no real scrutiny of vaccine mandates, said nothing of the needless isolation, deaths, or the masking of children, and embraced coercive behavioral science tactics without a murmur. They had the platform, but not the backbone. That's right.
Starting point is 02:28:57 You know, well, whatever the government says, you've got to just go with it. This is from the New American. Dr. Sherry Tenpenny, religion of vaccinology, with it. This is from the New American. Dr. Sherry Tenpenny, religion of vaccinology must be stopped. This is by Alex Newman. Robert F.

Now co-chaired by Dr. Robert Malone's review Currently Recommended Shots,
Starting point is 02:29:25 while the progress is significant, Americans must demand accountability for pandemic crimes and focus on helping victims. It's not enough to just go out and say, all right, we're not gonna recommend it anymore. Fine, we'll take it off the recommended list. These people poisoned millions. Who knows what what the long I keep saying this we don't know what the long-term effects are going to be what we've seen so far
Starting point is 02:29:51 are the short term issues the clotting the heart attacks everything else all the things you already seen are just short term we don't know what this is going to do you know 20 years down the. If this is going to show that it, who knows what? I can't, it's hard to even speculate when this is such a unknown technology. If they just willy-nilly injected into people. We don't know how much it's going to alter or damage or unravel your DNA as time goes on. Don't know what exactly it does, how it interacts. It's just deeply concerning. And again, like I said, it's not enough
Starting point is 02:30:38 to simply remove the recommendation. These people need to be put on trial. Their companies need to be sued for all the damages they've done. They need to remove the immunity that these companies have from prosecution. They need to be sued into the ground. They need to be put into generational debt. Everyone involved with this should know that they will never get out of it in their lifetime. That every penny that they have is going to be confiscated and used to help the people they've harmed and they are then thrown into prison. That's that's what I want. Some may call me an extremist. Defy Tyrant 1776, fluoride
Starting point is 02:31:21 equals con, convict equals con, war in terror equals con, war on drugs equals con, now it's all con don. That's right. Con don the don con. It's It's amazing how so many people still blindly trust the government. Would they lie to me? Would they, would they really do that? I can't believe it. I don't think so Someone really do that just get into the office and tell lies just go just get into government and tell lies Yes, and case you're new here. I bear I Humbly and sadly must tell you the government is lying to you probably on just about everything you know if you just go with that assumption you'll most likely be
Starting point is 02:32:09 fine don't trust anything that comes out of their mouths even if the evidence seems to point to it verify first make sure you know where that evidence comes from who paid for the evidence who did this study never trust the government. Your life will be better if you don't. To illustrate the crisis, Dr. Tenpenny, an osteopathic doctor, shared that the vaccine adverse event reporting system VAERS, which only received about 8,000 annual reports pre-COVID, has 1.6 million records of COVID-19 vaccine injuries. Today, not a single death has been compensated. Today not a single death has been compensated. Of course not. Why would they? They don't want to. It's gonna cost them a lot of money and the money-making part is the main thing. They love getting to, you know, maim people, injure them. We've
Starting point is 02:32:56 seen that, we know that, but I mean the billions of dollars, that's a, that's a huge incentive. Why would they ever compensate people for that? Well, I Think we're gonna Look at Israel because we've only got a little bit of time left and I want to make sure that I actually do Cover that like I said I would for that we will take a quick break so I can get some more coffee some more water and We will be right back stay with us I'm sorry. You're listening to the David Knight Show.
Starting point is 02:34:31 Welcome back folks. As I said, we're going to look at what's going on with Israel. Because the...slaughter doesn't stop. Israel has continued killing and maiming. Israeli airstrike slaughters 10 children waiting for nutritional aid near medical clinic in Gaza. This is news from antiwar.com. It's by Dave DeKamp. And there's a video there but it says warning graphic footage below so we won't play that on the show if you want to go see what they're actually doing for yourself you can go check that out on Thursday a US-backed Israeli airstrike hit near a medical clinic in central Gaza's Deir el-Bala as civilians gathered to receive nutritional aid killing 16 Palestinians including 10 children and three women. The clinic is run by Project
Starting point is 02:35:25 Hope, an American aid group and the organization's regional director, Natia Dessades, confirming that civilians were waiting to receive essential nutritional support at the time of the strike. New York Times said that it verified CCTV footage that showed a strike hit two men who were walking near a group of women and children. Smoke and dust filled the screen, and other footage shows dead and wounded women and children strewn along the side of the street." The death of children is, as I've said, it is a horror, it is an atrocity. We are directly linked to this.
Starting point is 02:36:04 The American government supports the Israeli government. We fund them, we give them weapons. This is more blood laid at our feet. A lot of children. But of course America doesn't care about children. It doesn't care about our own children. We abort hundreds of thousands of them, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions of them over the course of when abortion has been legal. Based on the CCTV footage in the video of the aftermath, there's no evidence that the two men who were directly hit with the airstrike were armed.
Starting point is 02:36:34 According to Reuters, the IDF claimed that it struck a Hamas militant who participated in the October 7th, 2023 attack on southern Israel, but offered no evidence. We got him. Can you prove it? No. Why would you ask? Who cares how many women or children we blow up if we can kill one militant?
Starting point is 02:36:57 Alleged militant that we won't prove to you was a militant. State Department spokeswoman Tammy Bruce was asked about the massacre and referred the reporter to the state of Israel. I can't speak to that particular event. I would direct you to the country of Israel, she said. Bruce claimed the US decries civilian casualties but made clear the US will continue to back Israel. That's right, oh it's a tragedy. We hate that this happened. But we're gonna keep funding it. We're gonna keep sending them missiles and bombs. It's a war. We stand by Israel to say the least. And we also know that Israel, when it is due, investigates and wait to see
Starting point is 02:37:34 what their actions will be. Bruce said, that's right. You can trust Israel to do a thorough investigation. They would never lie to us. They would never, they would never find themselves innocent over something they know to be false, over the death of women and children. They would never do that. They would never concoct a story. It's the old, uh, we asked the CIA and the CIA said they did nothing wrong, except this is we asked the Israeli government if they did anything wrong and they said no so there you go y'all committing any war crimes over there? Nah they're not committing any war
Starting point is 02:38:11 crimes fellas nothing to worry about. Mythqual Abutha, Project Hope's project manager in Deir al-Bala told the Washington Post that there was limited damage to the entrance of the clinic due to the airstrike. Abutaha said the clinic screens children and lactating mothers suffering under the Israeli blockade for malnutrition and provides them with supplements. Israeli airstrikes also pounded other targets across the Gaza Strip on Thursday. Despite talk of a potential ceasefire deal, Gaza's health ministry said that 82 Palestinians were killed and 247 were injured over the previous 24-hour period. Seems like Israel doesn't understand what ceasefire means. Seems they're a little confused.
Starting point is 02:38:52 What you mean? Ceasefire? You mean I'm not allowed to kill women and children? I don't think that's what that means. Guard Goldsmith. And the IDF is starving those folks as well, then driving them to the food areas, bombing those, and sniping people. Yeah, we've talked about that previously. You mentioned how that works out. They starve them, make it so they're desperate for food, and when they come to these areas they set up to distribute aid, they claim that there's, you know, something wrong with the crowd. Either it's too rowdy or there's someone there that's harmed and they just open fire. It's truly despicable the tactics that the Israelis are willing to engage in. Guard, again, given that Israel
Starting point is 02:39:36 in the US funded Hamas, how can they be sure those Hamas militants weren't US employees? It seems anytime you turn over a stone and find a militant organization in the Middle East, if you turn over another stone there's their CIA handler right beside them. The United States... Maybe they know who's Hamas because they have them on payroll. We have their names and employment files right here. Exactly. Israel sends over to the CIA. It's like, hey, is this one of your guys? And CIA goes, yep. Israeli attacks in Gaza kill 117 Palestinians over 24 hours. 117 Palestinians killed over 24 hours.
Starting point is 02:40:21 Gaza's health ministry said on Monday that Israeli attacks killed 117 Palestinians and wounded 557 over the previous 24-hour period as relentless U.S.-backed Israeli strikes continue to pound the strip. The Health Ministry said that another three bodies were recovered from the rubble. A number of victims are still under the rubble and on the streets where ambulance and civil defense crews are unable to reach them at this time," the ministry wrote on Telegram. Israeli strikes on Monday included an airstrike on tents in the Yelma-Wasi area of Khan Yunis in southern Gaza, according to Al Jazeera. At least nine Palestinians were killed in the strikes, most of them children.
Starting point is 02:40:59 It's got to be worth it though, right? I'm sure they're taking out some Hamas militants It's gotta be worth it though, right? I'm sure they're taking out some Hamas militants. That these child casualties are completely justified, because they'll finally be able to take that land. It is such despicable. It is so despicable. The actions. Just the callous disregard. You know, who cares? They're Palestinians. They're animals. We'll treat them like that. Who cares if we kill their women or their children?
Starting point is 02:41:33 It doesn't matter how many of them get blown up. We're gonna take that land and there's nothing they're gonna do to stop us. Big Brit is back in, back again. Nobody's even mentioning the attacks they're doing now in Syria. We're gonna have to make sure to cover that tomorrow at least. Israel is a vicious warmongering power knowing that they've got us on a leash. So if someone responds too harshly, the US is going to come running. They'll use us to destabilize their enemies, destroy the enemy, the infrastructure of their enemies,
Starting point is 02:42:11 and kill a massive number of their population. A Palestinian news agency, WAFA, reported that at least seven people were killed by Israeli attacks on different areas of Gaza City. WAFA also reported that four Palestinians were killed by an Israeli strike in the Buraid refugees camp in central Gaza. Israeli military said on Monday that three of its soldiers were killed by an explosion in a tank in Jabalia, northern Gaza. It didn't specify the cause of the blast. And again this is uh, I am sad that the Israelis died as well. I don't want to see any loss of life, ideally. But it's a different thing when a soldier who signed up, or at minimum didn't refuse to serve in the IDF, because you are required mandatorily to serve there, there would be consequences for not
Starting point is 02:43:01 doing it, but you could still stand on principle and say I'm not going to send me to prison Or wherever but is a different thing when a soldier who has Ostensibly signed up for this kind of conflict and said yes, I will risk my safety is Killed it is a much greater horror when a child is killed Again, I don't I don't want either side exterminated. I don't want to see either side killed until there's none left. I don't think the Palestinians are pure perfect angels that are simply, you know, they were just trying to exist. I'm sure there are faults
Starting point is 02:43:40 on both sides. I'm sure things that happened during October 7th were real and there were atrocities that were committed. But I don't think bombing women and children is the solution to that. I don't think just because something terrible happened to you, it gives you the excuse to go commit terrible acts yourself. And Israel has been a monumental force for destruction in the Middle East for years. They have been continually harassing and striking at their neighbors. And I'm sure that it's that their neighbors aren't the best either. The Middle East is not exactly a perfectly peaceful place. But that doesn't mean they have the right to bomb women and children to kill with utter
Starting point is 02:44:33 disregard. And they are for certain not our greatest ally. Israeli forces continue to kill Palestinians seeking aid with the health ministry recording the death of five aid seekers. Al Jazeera reported that at least two people were killed when Israeli attack near an aid center in northwest Rafah, southern Gaza. Since the US and Israeli-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation began operating at the end of May, at least 838 aid seekers have been killed and 5,575 have been injured. That starts to look a bit like a pattern
Starting point is 02:45:08 doesn't it? Not just, oh oops we accidentally dropped something too close. But perhaps people are targeting them at these places. And of course we've read those reports where Israeli soldiers were told yeah just Kill anyone that comes into this zone No, we haven't actually informed anyone that the zone exists We haven't told them not to come in but they should you know, just intrinsically they should through osmosis
Starting point is 02:45:44 Understand it. So if they come in here it means they are terrorists looking to do harm. So you just open fire and kill them. This is from antiwar.com. It was originally published at Tom Dispatch and by Nader Tarani and Tom Engelhardt. I love America, now it's bombing my family in Iran. In a world where so much else is happening, including only recently savage American-Israeli strikes against Iran, Gaza has become little more than background noise.
Starting point is 02:46:15 Yes, that 25-mile strip of land and its towns and cities might have been all but leveled by Israeli air power and military might. Northern Gaza and estimated 72% of all buildings have been damaged or utterly destroyed. Worse yet, it never truly seems to end, does it? Since the brutal October 7, 2023 Hamas assault on Israel, the devastation has never stopped and the people still living, if you can think of it as living, and Gaza and estimated 2.1 million of them at critical risk of famine, and many at the edge of starvation are almost invariably in danger When they try to get food And that of course is when food is even available for much of March and April Israel cut off all food supplies to Gaza
Starting point is 02:46:57 And just a couple of weeks ago They completely closed the crossing points into northern Gaza Most direct route for aid and of course when the food does get get through, a desperate Gazan swarm the few food distribution sites, Israeli soldiers seem to shoot some of them down almost daily, even when they clearly pose no threat at all. What a nightmare, and yet these days Gaza is barely in the news most of the time, especially after the nightmare of Middle Eastern hell spread to Iran a new horror in the region that country was of course only recently Attacked by Israel in the US on the insistence of leaders of both countries
Starting point is 02:47:35 Benjamin Netanyahu and Donald Trump that it was preparing to build nuclear weapons though the best evidence provided by believe it or not Tulsi Gabbard The Trump administration's director of intelligence, is that they weren't. Of course, no one thought to attack North Korea while it was building nuclear weapons, and that country, mind you, was the ninth to get them into it. But no matter. Ten was evidently the magic number, and with that in mind, let Tom dispatch regular Nader Tehrani himself, an American of Iranian background, take you into the Middle Eastern world of both horror and grim madness in a distinctly personal fashion. As hearing girl, the Middle East peoples have been trying to kill each other off for all the years of recorded history. We should keep our hands off all
Starting point is 02:48:18 of them and let them work it out themselves. That's what I... The Middle East is not just a peaceful, wonderful utopia. They have long-standing grudges. They have continually been at war with each other and have, as I said, just deep-seated long-standing grudges that we are not going to be able to resolve with diplomacy on our end. Like you said, we should just take our hands off. Stop funding, stop utilizing, stop shipping arms and ammunition to these people. Should not be involved in it.
Starting point is 02:48:57 I love America, now it's bombing my family in Iran. We bombed Iran and despite a temporary cessation of hostilities, it's likely that President Donald Trump and his counterpart in Tel Aviv, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, tend to drag the United States into yet another destabilizing effort in the Middle East. Perhaps the most dangerous one yet. As an Iranian American, I feel as if my greatest fears are now being realized. Like many Iranian Americans, I love this country and the many blessings that it's provided my family, so much so that I proudly chose to wear the uniform of its Navy.
Starting point is 02:49:26 I'll never forget the immense sense of pride I felt on July 31, 1996, when I was sworn into the United States Navy, or the unparalleled sense of responsibility I experienced when I wore my uniform for the first time as an American sailor graduating from boot camp. I then had the honor of being selected as the first Iranian-American to serve as a member sailor graduating from boot camp. I then had the honor of being selected as the first Iranian American to serve as a member of the United States Navy Presidential Honor Guard in Washington, D.C. And on every one of those occasions, my loved ones, Iranian immigrants all, proudly stood by my side, beaming with joy as I embarked on what I view as a sacred commitment to serve
Starting point is 02:50:01 the nation that I love. Like many immigrant families, mine came to the United States in search of peace, prosperity, and the possibility of becoming part of the fabric of the country that had given the world the Bill of Rights and the sacred tenet of equal justice under the law. Country that had given history George Washington, John F. Kennedy, and Martin Luther King Jr., among others. A nation that had served as a safe harbor for German refugees like Albert Einstein and Hollywood film director Billy Wilder fleeing Nazi persecution. A great nation that did indeed free the world from the scourge of Hitler and the Third Reich
Starting point is 02:50:35 in World War II and later landed the first men on the surface of the moon. No nation has had so much potential to do good in the world as we do in the United States of America. Our Founding Fathers, imperfect as they might have been, passed on to us the proposition that liberty and human dignity are anything but idle words. They are in fact fundamental human values written in the very hearts of every person. In short, they passed on to us a promise that all men, every soul in fact, is endowed by our Creator with life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Nor do these founders suggest that such sacrosanct if now seemingly self-evident value stopped at American shores. And that's
Starting point is 02:51:15 part of it. All men are created equal. So that means even if the foreign government of a different country doesn't recognize its own citizens' liberties, we should not trample over them ourselves. We shouldn't go out and foment color revolutions and overthrow their lands and engage in that kind of nonsense. But we should not be so willing to just, well, they don't respect their people's rights. Why should we have to? Because we understand better. Just because they are ruled in a way that limits their freedoms doesn't mean that we are free to ignore their rights ourselves.
Starting point is 02:52:05 to ignore their rights ourselves. They were all too aware that for centuries, imperial forces had pillaged and wreaked havoc globally on smaller, defenseless countries and on civilizations virtually everywhere. Throughout the centuries, such imperial powers had risen by way of their strength, if not their virtue, and fallen thanks to their global misadventures. Let's be clear by any metric you want to mention. United States is indeed a global imperial force and an all-too-critical crossroads. The question is, will we allow parasitic and nefarious entities and interests to drain us of our resources, cajole us into breaking yet more international laws, turn us into a global pariah while betraying the great founding promise of our republic?
Starting point is 02:52:44 Well, truth is, it's already happened. We're already a global pariah while betraying the great founding promise of our republic. Well, truth is, it's already happened. We're already a global pariah. So many countries around the globe despise America because of what we've done, because they've been able to look at it and say, that was horrific. Look what they did to Iraq. Look what they did to Afghanistan. Look what happened in numerous other countries all over the globe. How we've been a, as I keep saying, swaggering, bullying force of nothing other than American imperialism.
Starting point is 02:53:18 Hey, you've got some resources and if you don't maintain good relationships with us and give us those resources the way we want them when we want them We might just send the American military and overthrow you. Oh wait, maybe we'll do it for Israel as well Maybe we'll do it at their behest for their benefit you know Israel does best when the People nearby are destabilized it allows them to get away with a lot more allows them to expand their borders destabilized. it allows them to get away with a lot more. it allows them to expand their borders. Knights of the Storm. war is what keeps their fiat game going. it's about to implode though, hence CBDC, to keep the bubble going. war is always their final distraction. when nothing else
Starting point is 02:53:58 is working, when everyone is starting to question, hey what's going on here? it's back to war, back to the Middle East. That's been their favorite little playground for my entire life at this point. We cannot seem to get out of there every every few years we go back. With Donald Trump in the Helm of State, the answer is likely to be a resounding yes. Why the con, Don? In order to understand the peril in which we find ourselves as a nation, we need to look no further than Trump's recent betrayal of his own director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard. Just three months ago, she testified before Congress that according
Starting point is 02:54:39 to the assessment of the intelligence community, Iran had not made the decision to weaponize its nuclear program. Ignore that. Benjamin Netanyahu says otherwise. Mossad says otherwise. No reason to worry. No reason to care about Tulsi's assessment that she probably got from informed people that know what they're talking about. Benjamin Netanyahu has an agenda. Mossad has an agenda. They want to expand their borders. Besides, they need a little bit of a distraction from them flattening Gaza and killing women and children. What if we bombed Iran? You know, those guys that are so close to creating nukes. They're a few weeks to months away from it at all times. Benjamin Netanyahu says so. We've got to do what Benjamin Netanyahu says. When asked about Gabbard's assessment recently Trump quipped,
Starting point is 02:55:31 I don't care what she said and if she had merely been offering an opinion of her own not testifying about a multi-agency conclusion that Iran was not a nuclear threat. In fact, as a matter of religious edict, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khomeini had declared a fatwa ruling that the potential global devastation of nuclear weapons violated the very tenets of the Islamic faith and his country was forbidden to develop such weaponry. My part more than 25 years ago as a young sailor on active duty, I found myself recruited by the Defense Intelligence Agency and the Defense Human Services, now the Defense Clandestine Service, specifically because of my Persian Farsi skills and my cultural knowledge. Even then it was widely reported that our government had a
Starting point is 02:56:11 wealth of intelligence capabilities when it came to determining the exact scale, scope, and goals not to speak of mindset and shoe sizes of the Iranian leadership, especially when it came to their military and nuclear capabilities. Again, we are spying on everyone continually. They know what is actually going on over there. They are well-informed. Tulsi Gabbard undoubtedly, as they said, know the shoe sizes of the people involved. They're not sitting there. Oh man, if only we knew what they were up to. They're not sitting there, oh man, if only we knew what they were up to. They know. Tulsi Gabbard has all that information at her fingertips and says, no, they're not making
Starting point is 02:56:50 nuclear weapons. And people with something to gain, people like Benjamin Netanyahu, come out and say, they are. They are. They're just so close. They're going to get it, you guys. Have to bomb them. Oh, you're not going to well
Starting point is 02:57:05 What if we bomb them and drag you along for the ride? There's no getting out of it. We are obsequious with Israel Well do whatever they say they They call the shots Again, this is by Nader Tehrani, and I think it's worth a read, but we don't have much time left, and it's a fairly long article.
Starting point is 02:57:30 So again, it's called, I Love America and Now It's Bombing My Family in Iran. It was originally published at Tom Dispatch. That's now on anti-war. So you can find that there. I recommend going and reading it yourself. But I don't have time to fully explore this article. I left it for too long. I meandered and fussed about fluoride and things. So I have to leave that for another day. Leave Israel alone for now. I know I wouldn't want to. I wouldn't want to bully poor Israel. Goodness knows I would hate to be called anti-Semitic because I don't support them killing women and children. We're almost out of time here. We've got about two minutes left. So again, I just want to thank you
