Starting point is 00:00:30 of deceit. Telling the truth is a revolutionary act. It's the David Knight Show. As the clock strikes 13, it's Wednesday the 3rd of June, year of our Lord, 2006. Well, the government will never tell you the truth, not about economic metrics, but you know, we may have AI be able to help us on this. Someone has now found out what the real growth and inflation data has been, and guess what? We've been suffering from stagflation for several years. As a matter of fact, since the planned dimmick. So we're going to take a look at that in light of what you and I can do about it. And we have newly released body cam footage from cops in the UK showing their complicity
Starting point is 00:01:22 and the murder of a young 18-year-old because the murderer claimed that this guy was racist. We're going to take a look at that. What is happening in the world? West, as well as this government's tactic, a divide and conquer. Many people are taking the bait. It is a horrific story, however. We're going to show you the body cam footage. And then we have Trump. Speaking of weaponization, Trump has selected the despicable Stalinesque thug, Pulte, who ingratiate himself to Trump by coming after his enemies. He now wants to put him In charge of DNA. What does that say about domestic spying? Well, gold is waiting as the global markets are tempting the unprepared is the headline from Zero Hedge. And I think it's a good way to put it.
Starting point is 00:02:20 2026 is screaming uh-oh signals from every sector and asset class. This explains why the longer term case for gold could not be more obvious, regardless of the natural price retractments and retrace. in the near term. And of course, what is happening with that? We've also got screaming headlines all the time about what Trump claims is going to be happening, but never does seem to happen. Gold has overtaken U.S. bonds as the world's favorite investment. This is a headline most of yesterday on Matt Drudge, and yet, if you listen to Tony Ardman, he was talking about this a couple weeks ago. Escalating fears over Trump's wars and his tariffs have pushed central banks to dump treasuries. So we stop and think about this left-right march of tyranny, this left-right march to the great reset. We had Joe Biden basically discredit the financial system that Americans have benefited
Starting point is 00:03:22 from for so long, and the empire requires for its unlimited spending. He discredit. He discredit credited that with his sanctions and the weaponization of that system, Trump comes in and right away, he starts with the tariffs, then he starts adding wars and other geopolitical uncertainty. The share of gold in central banks official holdings of foreign currencies climbed to 27% last year, surpassing their holding of U.S. treasuries at only 22%. The European Central Bank said central banks are using gold to shore up their balance sheets
Starting point is 00:03:59 against the headwinds of geopolitics, because geopolitics has become as unstable as Trump's personality. It's ego politics. It has absolutely nothing to do with anything other than his whims, but of course, it serves the greater long-term agenda, a bipartisan agenda of Great Reset. A bank site of survey from late 2025, 2025. 2025. This is before the Iran war. Central Banks said that geopolitics was the third biggest risk they faced behind only cybersecurity and other cyber incidents. But in April, a month after the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran, 70% of central banks said geopolitics was the number one risk they faced this year. A third of central banks also said geopolitics would be the most important factor guiding the management of their foreign
Starting point is 00:04:55 currency reserves over the next five years. Yeah, this is going to take us well past the end of the fourth turning. And that's really what Trump's role is. He is Mr. Chaos to bring in the fourth turning. Gold is traditionally viewed as a haven when markets or politics are stormy. However, central banks have grown more cautious as Trump. has pursued unpredictable policy on the world stage. Everything that he does is unpredictable. Again, he's gone to war with every country. It's not on the basis of trying to protect an industry or trying to fund the government.
Starting point is 00:05:37 It's based on his own personal preferences. And we can see that when he gets upset with a politician and another country overnight. What's he doing? He jacks up their terrace. And then he changes his mind. He always chickens out on the tariffs. and he has piled on more debt. And you're going to see massive amounts of debt piled on with war,
Starting point is 00:05:58 with the massive militarization increase, which is the dying struggle of this empire. They want to hit a record amount, and then they immediately want to increase that by another 50%. He and Hexeth. Central banks are now wary about the potential weaponization of reserves after Russia's central bank had its U.S. assets frozen. So that was Biden's contribution.
Starting point is 00:06:24 He discredits the financial system that's there, and Trump starts to bankrupt it when he comes in. This is a one-two punch. Since the lockdowns, there's been a 12% loss of GDP. Half of U.S. dollars purchasing power has been stolen. This is from Jeffrey Tucker at the Brownstone Institute. and he points out that they have run the study once before, and people complained about it because, again, the federal government always lies to us about all these statistics and metrics,
Starting point is 00:07:01 whether it's unemployment or whether it's the actual rate of inflation. It's all a lie. Always is a lie. As a matter of fact, one of the first things they mentioned about Kevin Warsh coming in was that they were going to, again, modify the way inflation is calculated in a self-serving way because Trump wants more inflation. He needs more inflation. He needs to monetize the debt.
Starting point is 00:07:23 He needs to be able to pay back this massive debt that he was largely responsible for bringing in because so much of it has been added in just the first term of his and second term, the first term of Biden's. And now in the second term, he's exploding this debt. And so he has a lot of culpability in this. And yet when we look at it, He needs to monetize this because if he doesn't inflate, he's not even going to be able to pay the interest on the debt.
Starting point is 00:07:53 So many of us have had the intuition, says Jeffrey Tucker, that the economic damage from 2020, including industrial stoppages, monetary printing, supply chain disruptions, extended school closures, and general population demoralization was in fact far greater than official statistics indicate. That's right. His first time around, he did so much damage.
Starting point is 00:08:20 And that was when he first got into a fight with Thomas Massey. Thomas Massey was pushing back, if you remember, on the economics issue. And he forced all of these congressmen when many of these idiots thought they were going to die. He forced them to come back to vote on this. He said, no, if you're going to spend $3 trillion on this, you know, essentially he didn't call that. But what essentially it is is moving the over. and window towards universal basic income with the stimulus checks and all the rest of stuff.
Starting point is 00:08:50 He said, you're going to have to come back and vote on this. So Trump wanted to get him out right then, but he couldn't do it until he got the money of the Zionist billionaires. They were able to get him out. It's true the official data is bad enough, showing a 26% loss in purchasing power, slow growth and output, and only marginal improvements in real income. But the labor participation rate and worker population ratio never fully recovered. and they continue to fall.
Starting point is 00:09:18 That is where we are right now. The damage from his first term, we're still feeling it, as he starts to pile on new issues. AI has come along now to make these complicated calculations possible to show what the real aspect is. I think this is one of the key things. Ones that seek to discern and to delineate the huge gaps between official data and reality.
Starting point is 00:09:43 real data concerning real prices, many different methods that the Department of Labor uses to address price changes. You know, years ago, it was Jim Rogers, wrote a book called Investment Biker. He and his girlfriend went around the world on a motorcycle. Of course, he had to take a boat in many places to get across the oceans. But he wanted to be up close and personal to really observe the cultures and the economies in various places. And one of the most interesting takeaways I think he had was he said, you can tell the level of corruption in a government by the difference between the official exchange rate for their currency and what the market exchange rate is, the actual market, which in many cases was a black market.
Starting point is 00:10:30 And what we're seeing here is a gauge of the corruption of our own government, how it manipulates the data in order to lie to us, right? statistics don't lie, but liars use statistics. For example, housing prices are not measured directly, but they're converted into something they call the owner's equivalent rent. Medical service prices are adjusted for consumption, not for what the actual final bill is. When the quality of a good or a service improves, these statisticians apply what they call hedonic adjustments, which invariably are designed to minimize the price increases and never run in the other direction.
Starting point is 00:11:14 I'll tell you how that works, for example. And they've been doing this since the late 1990s, 1998, as a matter of fact. And what they do is they come out, and let's say that you buy a computer from a particular company, Apple or Dell or whatever. And, you know, you would pay $3,000 for it back in the day. Okay. Well, then the next year, the price doesn't change, let's say. Maybe the price is about the same. Maybe it goes up a little.
Starting point is 00:11:40 But they come out and they say, well, you know, this year's model is a lot faster than last years. And so what these criminals at the government statistics office do is they normalize the price to the performance. And they say, well, even though you're paying the same or more for this, because it's a faster computer, it actually went down in price. Now, you and I know that's not true. The older computer is not available from them for new if you were to do that.
Starting point is 00:12:11 Where does this leave all those who are looking for a plain index of prices, says Jeffrey Tucker? Well, a veil has been put over that basic question. However, there is a new service called Reality Index. This is being done by Tom Elliott, who lives in Madrid. And he has deployed AI to wholly reconstruct price indices in a way that is consistent with actual prices. And his results are absolutely eye-popping, says Jeffrey Tucker.
Starting point is 00:12:41 The Wall Street Journal has also taken notice of this. So it raises a possibility that we could finally get to the truth about these economic statistics. The core of the problem is a constantly changing methodology in official data. The formula has changed eight times over 35 years. So they're changing the way they calculate inflation about once every four. years in major ways. All the changes seem technical and vaguely justifiable when they explain it, but what you get is wild distortions in the data. For example, in 1983, owner's equivalent rent replaced the basic price of houses. So we all know what the price of houses are. As a matter of fact,
Starting point is 00:13:25 they are constantly adjusting these things in the marketplace and the people who assess your property for taxes. They come up with a price. But the federal government does use that when it does calculations of inflation. They based it on the estimate of what a homeowner would have to pay in order to rent their home. And that is something that is not objectively determined, folks. In real life, people pay mortgages, property taxes, and home prices. But when home prices and mortgage rates rise faster than rents, the new formula understates the housing inflation real household face. Then in 1998, they did when I was just, talking about, the hedonic adjustment from an observation that quality is always improving.
Starting point is 00:14:10 Is that the case anymore? Yes, in qualityification, that's the term that's become so popular recently. Yeah, instead of in shittification and qualification. Yeah, quality is always improving. You certainly notice that, don't you, with the software and computer issues, especially in digital goods and computer functions. You might be paying the same even more, but you're getting more bang for your buck, are you really? Notably, hedonic adjustments never run the other way.
Starting point is 00:14:44 How much inflation is the stuff from Google, from these CEOs that get in, that ruin everything? How much is that worth in the other way? That's right. Yeah, they go in and vibe code this stuff and now nothing works. So now what does that make me the effective price of my digital products here? This is beyond laughable what they're doing here. So what happens is we strip all this away and we examine actual prices reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics without all of the many adjustments. We find that a basket of goods and services that cost $100 in 1980, today cost $515 based on the reality index that was calculated.
Starting point is 00:15:28 The official CPI reports only 391, so that's bad enough. Think about it. The official statistics, even with all this manipulation, the official statistics are saying that you need just a little bit less than four times the number of dollars that you had in 1980 in order to get the same stuff. But the reality is that you're in a bit more than five times the number of Somolians paper monopoly money. $1.1980 was worth only 26 cents today. According to the reality index, the loss is even greater. $1.1980 is now really worth only $0.19. This is a shocking devaluation. And yet, most of this, folks, has happened with the lockdowns.
Starting point is 00:16:26 Even though we had a lot of inflation in the late 1970s, the early 1980s, most of this has happened with what Trump and Biden have done. They've really accelerated this. That's the bottom line on this article here. From the beginning of the COVID period to the present, Elliott's data estimates as much as 40% loss in purchasing power over just six years. Perhaps it's closer to 50%. Trump is killing us, folks.
Starting point is 00:17:01 He's killing us economically. He wants to kill us in terms of the surveillance state. When you look at this guy that he's put in there, Bill Pulte, what a crook, what a criminal, what a thug. He's basically implemented this Stalinesque meme, bring me the man and I'll find the crime. He wants to put him in as Director of National Intelligence. And I've said for the longest time, national security has nothing to do with war and peace and our safety. It has everything to do with the government being weaponized against us. And we'll get into that in a moment.
Starting point is 00:17:38 What's going on with the DNI and with a Pulte? Nevertheless, COVID cut the value of the dollar in terms of goods and services to half or more of its former value. That is what Trump has done. He's working hard to make it even worse. The official definition of recession is two quarters of declining real GDP. However, when we look at the actual data as this guy has done using artificial intelligence, because again, that is the superpower of this stuff. You know, we look at it in terms of the hysterical failures of self-driving cars
Starting point is 00:18:17 running through a construction zone with a panicked passengers in it as the police are chasing and with sirens going on or plowing headlong into floodwaters. But the reality is that it is very, very, very good at auditing. That's what Bill Pulte used it for. That's what Elon Musk used it for. And that's what another person has used it for to audit the official numbers from these lying government statisticians. And when you look at that, you see that we have had consistently negative GDP and all but three quarters since the summer of 2022. In other words, a recession officially is two quarters of decline in GDP. And yet we've had a decline in GDP in every quarter, except for three of
Starting point is 00:19:09 them. And this is since 2022. And those three quarters output barely rose above zero. Mostly real GDP has been falling. This has been a recession without end. And so then Trump doubles down and wants to take us to war. Beautiful, isn't it? If you want to destroy the country, and I believe it has. That's why he was selected. We've seen as much as double-digit declines in GDP overall since 2020. This is the cumulative loss that has spread out over six years. That's roughly half of the losses of the full period of the Great Depression. Think about that.
Starting point is 00:19:51 So when you compare this to the Great Depression, as Jeffrey Tucker does, we are roughly half of the losses of the entire Great Depression already in six years. And they're able to keep that concealed from you through lies about government statistics. At least during the Great Depression, people knew it was happening. It was documented officially. But in our time, things are different. We have heard nothing for six years except happy talk about the economic recovery. And the fact that we're just winning really big.
Starting point is 00:20:28 And Trump comes out with one meme after the other to show to it, to prove to us that we're winning. I think people in the middle of the Great Depression were tired of winning. Yeah. They were doing back than we are. We're just completely gaslit with all this stuff. Meanwhile, Trump is amending tariffs on imported steel, aluminum, and copper. Again, he always changes his mind. And he should change his mind.
Starting point is 00:20:54 because this stuff is unbelievably stupid. But he needs the taxes, folks. This is not going, we're not going to tax our way to prosperity. He needs the taxes just to try to pay for the interest on the massive debt that he has created. That's the reality of what we're looking at here. And that's why he's fighting so hard for this. And now, because he did it thumbing his nose at the law and at the Constitution, I'm a dictator.
Starting point is 00:21:21 I can do anything I want. He's gotten slapped down now by. the courts, and now he's looking at having to reimburse people for this, and now he's really freaking out about that. Got very angry last week at the golf course. Rising Eels, the most misunderstood, important signal of 2026? Ask this article from Zero Hedge. 145 trillion dollars in global bond market, which is $20 trillion greater in size than the global stock market. and it remains less understood yet far more significant as an economic indicator. And again, I began by saying that central banks, because of the capricious,
Starting point is 00:22:03 unstable, he's not a stable genius, he's a unstable idiot. Because of this unstable idiot, the central banks have said, that is their greatest risk. So what are they doing? They're avoiding U.S. treasuries. And as this article from Zero Hitch points out, that is one of the big economic indicators, significant economic indicators. The boring bond market is foretelling an historical sovereign debt crisis that's already playing out before way too many closed eyes. So we don't realize what has happened to our economy. We don't realize what has happened to inflation.
Starting point is 00:22:42 We don't have the full picture because they continue to lie to us. And because everybody's caught up in this bipartisan cheerleading. Everybody wants to cheerlead either Biden or Trump. Guess what? They were both horrible. Both of them were horrible. Yields on sovereign IOUs. That's what we're talking about here, bonds. Whether you're talking about British, American, German, Italian, Japanese,
Starting point is 00:23:04 are climbing to the highest levels that we have seen in decades. The yields rise when trust in government bonds is tanking. And again, at this point in time, at this fourth turning, everybody's trust in these institutions is, tanking and the distrust is well earned. The dying trust has a lot to do with global debt levels at over $360 trillion. U.S. public debt levels are reaching an embarrassing $40 trillion marker, which effectively makes America one big bad credit. Yeah, it's not a big, beautiful bill. It's a big, bad credit card bill that we're getting. And we're going to hit that $40 trillion, I think,
Starting point is 00:23:49 when I was looking at the rate that it was happening. This is a couple of months ago, but now they're accelerating this. But at that rate, it was going to hit in September. You know, we may wind up hitting that $40 trillion right as we're running out of oil supplies. Because Trump is really drawing down very rapidly the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. The yield on the U.S. 10-year bonds has risen by 75 basis points in a matter of months, despite the Fed having yet to do any raising of interest rates. And why is that?
Starting point is 00:24:24 You know, we have seen in the past that when the Federal Reserve comes in and arbitrarily sets the bond rates, that the market doesn't follow on that for home mortgages, right? We've seen over and over again. They would come in and lower the interest rates, and yet you would see the home mortgage rates stay the same or go up. More often they have gone up. Why is that? well, because the market is making that decision.
Starting point is 00:24:49 And the market is speaking rather than the dictates of a chairman. And so what happens is the people are looking at this who are actually have the money and are actually going to make the loan and they say, well, because they are feeding inflation with a lower interest rates, I'm going to have to go up on the interest rate on this 30-year mortgage. Because if I don't, you know, it's going to be monetized with inflation. I'm not going to get my money back at all. And that's why this works this way.
Starting point is 00:25:19 The Fed openly losing control of the bond markets is what we're really looking at. And so what will they do? Well, one of the things are going to do is they're going to change the metrics yet again in terms of how they calculate inflation. The slow yet steadily increasing death spiral of fiat currencies is fascinating, obvious and yet totally ignored by the current stock chasers, at least for now. So they're looking at in this article here the fact that we've got the stock market bubble. What's going on with this?
Starting point is 00:25:54 Aren't they not aware of what's going on? The signals coming from the bond market? It's also a perfect setup for gold. Fake liquidity now and an almost mirror image of the 1970-1980 era, when the dollar lost 50% of its purchasing power and gold went from $35 an ounce to $850 an ounce. And, of course, we also had the oil embargo then as well. At that point in time, it was OPEC. Now it's Trump doing the oil embargo with this war that he started.
Starting point is 00:26:26 And his is worse because there is only affected 15% of U.S. oil that we had. And that had effects that were global. This is affecting 20% of all global. oil. Bigger effects, much bigger effects. And not only is it a blockage and a stoppage, but it is also attacking production. During the opaque oil embargo, they just stopped shipping oil to the U.S. Now what is happening with this war that Trump has started, they are destroying production capacity, as well as messing up the supply chain. By the current bull run and gold, the 1970s didn't happen in a straight line either. Midway through that infamous decade, gold saw sell-offs,
Starting point is 00:27:15 which shook out speculators, yet made longer-term investors generational level wealth. And so what happened was the beginning of 1970s that kicked all this stuff off. You had the OPEC, old embargo. Then things seemed to normalize, and gold started falling in price, and a lot of the speculators got out. And then things got really serious. and that's when at the tail end of it was when the biggest run-up happened. The recent price declines in gold are thus no surprise within a secular cycle. Gold's value, liquidity, and prominence have been confirmed by forced sales from sovereign central banks to fund managers in order to create needed liquidity in times of stress.
Starting point is 00:28:00 So another is going to look at that. There has been a lot of people jumped into it when they saw something that was going up really quickly. And then as soon as they see oil changing really quickly, they jump off of this train and onto that train. Or they have to. Or you have countries like Turkey and others who they may be an oil producer, they may be an oil consumer. Either way, they're looking at a lot of problems. If they're a producer, they can't get their product to market. Or if they're a consumer, they're looking at massively escalating prices for the energy that they're using.
Starting point is 00:28:34 So they're having to liquidate some of their gold. Meanwhile, stocks are defying sanity, valuation, and common sense. By literally every metric, the S&P is grotesquely overvalued. And I think it will be a quote that lives in infamy. Pam Bondi, who cares about Epstein? The stock market, the Dow is at 50,000. That's going to be the quote of the decade, I think. When people go back, it's going to kind of encapsulate all.
Starting point is 00:29:06 of this insanity perversion, from temptation to lying, is where we're going, yes. Those who would put the stock market value above justice will receive neither. That's right. That's good. Yeah, I just like liberty. Yeah. So, again, Kevin Warsh is going to just start lying even more so about these inflation things. The guy who's in-laws are part of the Estee Lauder fortune has been brought in to put makeup on this pig. You know, it's interesting just from a personal standpoint, Karen and I were talking about it. She went home one year from college and she went to work for Estee Lauder. She could not handle the smell of the stuff.
Starting point is 00:29:49 She was having all kinds of reactions to it. And so they said, well, I tell you what, we'll put you in our hypoallergetic line of clinic or whatever. And she got into that still same thing. She just had to quit that. It stuck, basically. Warsh intends to measure PCE inflation under a new metric that he calls trimmed mean PCE, effectively removing all bad inflationary data to create a fictitious notion that inflation is under control.
Starting point is 00:30:24 And if you even announced how they're going to game the system, they always tell you that they're going to make this change. And yeah, this is what we're doing and we need to do it. but we really need to understand what the real motivation is. When even the official math is bad, what is disturbing is that even the official lying information that they have manipulated to look better, even that looks bad.
Starting point is 00:30:44 As we're talking about, the consumer price index comparing your purchasing power from 1980. If you had $100 then to buy the same stuff in terms of goods and services, you'd need just under $400. The reality is that you would need over $500. And so even the official lies are bad when I talk about the policy that is here. And so it's kind of interesting when you look at these MAGA cheerleaders, and of course, the Daily Wire is full of them.
Starting point is 00:31:15 They should call Ben Shapiro's organization the Daily Liar, because it's not just Ben Shapiro shilling for Israel. It's also Dave Rubin, shilling for Trump. And so he was in a... a debate. It was called Surrounded. It was hosted by Jubilee Media. They have one guy there, and he takes questions, and people come up to the table, and they ask him a question. And I want you to hear this particular question here.
Starting point is 00:31:44 What is, let's see, that is disappeared. I don't have that. Do you have the Dave Rubin one metric question here? What is one main metric that Donald Trump has made better off since he got an office So like an example would be GDP, unemployment, inflation, et cetera. Well, right now, first off, the big, beautiful bill was just passed last year. Oh, big beautiful bill. Now, right?
Starting point is 00:32:10 Let's repeat that. Okay. So we are going to now see results of that. Like, even the tariffs, all right, so let's do tariffs. Are you for or against tariffs? Against the universal tariff. So what's the main metric that he made better off? What's the main metric that he made better off?
Starting point is 00:32:24 GDP, unemployment, inflation? Do you have any idea? Listen. I don't think you do. Do you think, hold on. So you're arguing that things economically were better under Joe Biden. At the end of his administration, absolutely. So can you give me an example of how?
Starting point is 00:32:41 Yeah, GDP growth was better off. Real median wage growth is better off. Inflation was better off the end of his administration. Unemployment was better off the end of his administration. But none of it was good. Growth in the past four years just last year under Trump's administration. The inflation, 3.8% year over year since Trump got in office, we're seeing all of those economic indicators become worse off.
Starting point is 00:32:58 Can you tell me anything that he's done to make it better off? You say it's broken for Democrats. It sounds like it's broken right now under Trump. Have you looked at the stock market? It's worse off in terms of the growth in 2025 as compared to 2024. If you look at Zhao Jones and S&P 500. They're both up quite a bit right now. But lower rate, lower rate, and doing quite well.
Starting point is 00:33:14 You know, things don't happen overnight. So Donald Trump, for example, things don't, that's true. It's going to take a while to see this. There's actual reality. Like, you put policies into place and they don't just kick in the next day, right? Donald Trump, Donald Trump said, Donald Trump said when the tariffs, you said in a year, prices would be down 50% for electricity. Are they up right now? Hold on. Donald Trump, when he brought in the idea of tariffs.
Starting point is 00:33:37 Yeah, the bottom line is that you notice that Dave Rubin's response was slogans. Oh, we got the big, beautiful bill. Oh, we got tariffs. That's going to take care of everything, right? I just throw those words out there. Let's not bother to do any math. Let's not look at anything. And of course, this other guy is right. Things are trending down. But it's not to say that they hadn't trended down with Biden as well. It's not to say that things were good under Biden. They were not good under Biden. And so this is what you get with this, uh, left, right march down, uh, circling the drain. Uh, it is absolutely ridiculous. Are you four tariffs? Are you for tax? Yeah. It takes a while for this stuff to kick in. And by the way, folks,
Starting point is 00:34:21 the tariff problems have really not kicked in yet. A lot of this stuff is, um, uh, again, a lot of the companies are reluctant to raise their prices. But they're either going to go out of business or they're going to raise their price. And that's where we are right now. So that kind of stuff is now kicking in. So speaking of stocks, though, the stock market just did something that is very similar to what happened during the dot-com bust. And what is happening right now is that the S&P closed at a record for the last trading day of May. But here's what it did that it was doing just as part of the,
Starting point is 00:35:01 dot com bubble bursting. And that is that it was very narrowly focused on just a few stocks. The what is echo of what happened 26 years ago with a dot com crash is that only 20 stocks out of the index hit a record. Of those 20, only seven were not directly related to AI to one thing, right? Before it was internet related. And so what we're seeing right. now is a very narrowly focused on the numbers are almost exactly the same. We've got a handful
Starting point is 00:35:36 of stocks very narrowly focused on one opium industry that's going to be revolutionary, but it's not producing anything yet. That is what is really happening. Michael Hartnett, at Bank of America, pointed out in a note to at the end of last week that it was only 20 stocks that hit new highs at the very top of the internet bubble in March of 2000. While the widely followed strategist said that the speculation price action is likely not over yet. This occurrence is the latest sign that it is nearing. Hartnett believes central banks and rising interest rates will ultimately spell the end, giving clients a post-bubble roadmap. Well, as I pointed out last week, we had Jared Bernstein, who was an economic advisor for Biden, was a run an op-ed piece for the
Starting point is 00:36:29 Atlantic, I think it was. And he said, well, I just realized that the cumulative debt is a problem. He just realized that. And I didn't know who this guy was. Tony knew who he was. And so we talked about Jared Bernstein last week. We're going to have somebody send me this clip of Jared Bernstein. It's even worse than you might think. The U.S. government can't go bankrupt because we can print our own money. It obviously begs the question. Why exactly are we borrowing it? a currency that we print ourselves. I'm waiting for someone to stand up and say,
Starting point is 00:37:04 why do we borrow our own currency in the first place? Mm-hmm. Like you said, you think the dollar. So why does the government even borrow? Well, the, so the, I mean, again, some of this stuff gets, some of the language that the, some of the language and concepts are just confusing. I mean, the government definitely prints money, and it definitely lends that money, which is why the government definitely prints money,
Starting point is 00:37:34 and then it lends that money by selling bonds. Is that what they do? Biden, Economic Advisor. They sell bonds. Yeah, they sell bonds, right, since they sell bonds and people buy the bonds and the money. Yeah, so a lot of times, at least to my year, with MMT, The language and the concepts can be unnecessarily confusing, but there is no question that the government prints money, and then it uses that money to, um, uh, uh, uh, so, um, yeah, I guess I'm just, I don't, I can't really talk. I don't, I don't get it. I don't know what they're talking about, like, because it's like, a lie. The government clearly prints money. It does it all the time, and it clearly borrows. Otherwise, we wouldn't be having this debt and deficit.
Starting point is 00:38:27 conversation. So I don't think there's anything confusing there. Yeah, not at all. As a matter of fact, he keeps going back to MMT. He mentioned it a couple of times. He's not MM and then he starts and then he mentions it fully MMT, the modern monetary theory, which I say really stands for magic money tree. This is what the Democrats resort to, but of course, Republicans really aren't much better. You have Alan Greenspan, this guy who's supposed to be such a genius. There's what he had to say. The United States can pay any debt it has because we can always print money to do that. So there is zero probability of default. This is the guy who criticizes stock markets for irrational exuberance. And of course, if he were around today, that would certainly
Starting point is 00:39:16 apply. But this whole Federal Reserve thing where we borrow the money from this independent corporation, this whole thing is irrational. They can't explain it. It makes absolutely no sense. Why? Because the whole thing is like a Ponzi scheme from Sam Bankman Fried. It is a lie of the first order of magnitude. It's one of the biggest lies ever put out there.
Starting point is 00:39:38 This is why these people in Wall Street are constantly cranking out, whether it is securitization of the failed housing market, the mid-2000s, or whether it is the tokenization, which is what they're going to use for the great taking. Folks, they've been taking us on this stuff for the longest time. That's what I say. Get out of this system as much as you can. Of course, none of us can get out of it 100%. We're all going to be injured by this, but get out of it as much as you can.
Starting point is 00:40:08 Escape from this system. The May stock boom was driven largely by semiconductors, specifically by memory chip makers. A growing number of strategists and investors are concerned that if this bull market doesn't start to broaden out, it will ultimately be its undoing. even though the U.S. and emerging equity indexes have reached new highs, their advances have been extremely narrow. And I say when you look at this, it looks like a pen.
Starting point is 00:40:34 When you get a really narrow group of corporations and they're only ones who are gaining anything and everybody else is declining, and that narrow group is based on irrational exuberance, really does start to look like a pen for the bubble. Post-bubble investor roadmap since 1929 is long bonds. However, gold has surpassed the bonds in holding. What does that tell you that the central banks are betting on? So the Fed is trapped between inflation and a debt crisis. Spraughts McIntyre says, well, either way, gold wins. Despite gold's recent disappointing price action, long-term bull case has rarely looked stronger.
Starting point is 00:41:21 The Federal Reserve faces an increasingly impossible balancing act between inflation, economic growth, and rising sovereign debt risks, according to one fund manager. Ryan McIntyre, the president of Sprott, Incorporated, says the Fed is now walking back extremely difficult path with very few viable policy options. He believes that ultimately this is going to drive investors toward gold. He said, you don't want inflation. so you have to keep rates somewhat high. However, you don't want the economy to slow down too much, so you've got to keep rates somewhat low. If either of those goes too far out of range,
Starting point is 00:42:02 then you risk losing control of bigger things. And so the Fed is in a tough spot. I guess they're between Iran in a hard place, aren't they? And so Trump, of course, is pushing for lower rates. He's got to have lower rates to monetize the debt. He's got to have lower rates. in order to even make the interest rate payments. So again, it's pushing towards inflation.
Starting point is 00:42:26 What has really caused the headwinds here for gold recently is the shift in rate expectations. People shifted from asking how many rate cuts we're going to get to whether or not there will be any rate cuts. Rate increases this year. However, despite short-term pressure from higher yields, he said gold's structural bull market remains intact because the deeper issue confronting investors is not simply inflation. It is whether or not this sovereign debt of over $40 trillion is sustainable. The most existential threat remains to be, remains the sovereign debt risk. This is one of the reasons why Thomas Massey was handing out all the incoming new freshmen's congressman.
Starting point is 00:43:09 He was handing them the debt counter that he wears on his lapel, showing the numbers rapidly going up. The rapidly deteriorating U.S. fiscal position is one of the most underappreciated risks in global markets. He noted that the U.S. debt held by the public has climbed above 100% of GDP, levels that have only been seen during World War II. That growth rate can't even cover the net interest. This is the point where policymakers are losing all flexibility, all options. They really are running out of tricks. They've got a lot of them up their sleeve, and there's more and more lies coming. But the reality is going to catch up with them.
Starting point is 00:43:54 If fuels start getting higher, that's going to be very difficult for equities for the stocks, meaning that the S&P 500 is going to start struggling. You start to get these warning signs from the bond markets saying that we need more yield to compensate for the financial outlook here. If you want to avoid being affected by the prospect of these government security, is becoming riskier, all roads lead to gold. And that's why the central banks are doing that as well. Gold ultimately becomes increasingly attractive as confidence in sovereign debt erodes and policymakers run out of credible options. The longer we spend not addressing our spending problems, the tougher
Starting point is 00:44:32 the road's going to be. Do you think that Trump is ever going to stop spending money that he doesn't have. That's how this guy bankrupted six casinos and how he is their choice, the Rothschilds and others, to bankrupt America. So as we look at this, these things are gold and stocks and bonds. They're being blown around by every ridiculous lie and pronouncement from Donald Trump. Here's an example. Gold rebounds after Iran and the U.S. reaching outline over ceasefire deal? Well, that was the end of last week. What's the reality today? Well, it looks completely different, doesn't it? Even in the same day, you can have Marco Rubio yesterday say, well, I think we've come to an agreement to have a ceasefire. And I think we're looking at the end of
Starting point is 00:45:27 this conflict here with Iran. They don't like to call it a war. And then immediately, later that night, you have Iran firing missiles at a U.S. base in Kuwait. Every time these guys make a pronouncement about how they're winning, every time they make a pronouncement about how the war is going to end, the markets react right away. As a matter of fact, as we're starting to see this, it looks like these lies and these constantly changing pronouncements are a deliberate manipulation of the marketplace by people associated with the Trump administration in order to make corrupt insider trading moves and massive amounts. of money. It's not just a lie. It's a lie with a purpose of corruption. That's what we're looking at with the Trump administration. And so gold will rebound after they talk about a ceasefire deal. And then the very next day, you'll see gold falls with inflation worries rising on the Middle East conflict. So they're ripping these markets one way and the other with these pronouncements.
Starting point is 00:46:32 How much longer will they be able to make these statements and move the markets this way? They talk about how they've got an M-O-U, a memorandum of understanding. And yet what's really happening is we've got an M-O-U-T-H, a big mouth that is out there. There's no understanding. There is no memo. There is simply the mouth out there that is manipulating the markets. And so this one from Kikko says, gold prices are captive to Iran headlines. All that pretty much sums it up.
Starting point is 00:47:09 They're captive to the headlines. And the people who are moving these markets in one way or the other, whether it's a stock market or whether it's gold, it's these headlines. And it's these lies that they're using out there. Well, we've got some comments here before we take a break. Stealth Patriot. Thank you very much for the tip. So as our number of data centers are ready, far exceeds the number in China with their police surveillance state. Maybe the CCP are not trying to see under their cc.
Starting point is 00:47:39 citizens skin. Oh, no, they are, but they have their own ways of doing that. And I tell you what is being set up here, though, is China has been a beta test site for all this stuff. And we're going to get it on steroids here. That's what they're really going to do. Yeah, they're just saving all the data of what's underneath their citizen's skin here in the U.S. for the time being. Yeah, the U.S. has been preparing for a very long time. Even going back to a about a decade ago when the NSA built that data center in Bluffdale, Utah. That's when they start storing all the information because they know that they're going to be able to data mine it and come after their enemies. And now we've got Trump putting in this guy that has already done that for him.
Starting point is 00:48:24 I mean, that was a big red flag for everybody. This is the guy that he wants to put in as director of national intelligence. We don't even need to have a director of national intelligence. And as we always see, and the founders warned us of this, it was Madison. who said the instruments of war abroad will become the tools of war abroad or something like that will become instruments of tyranny at home. And that's what we constantly see. This whole thing in the national security state, the CIA, you look at the CIA documents now showing that they were behind the Kim Trail poisoning of our country. They've been behind cultic stuff, poisoning
Starting point is 00:49:02 water, LSD, the drug issues. And of course, then they create the drug issue, then they create drug war because a drug war advances their mcuffin becomes the mcuffin for them to put in the police and surveillance state so think eric says fiat currency backed by nothing will intentionally lead to universal basic income ubi will lead to a lower population check out the study by john b calhoun called universe 25 we'll have to look at that i've not seen that before but yeah um it's a depressing way to control people. And you're right, it will lead to depopulation. It will lead to essentially lobotomizing people,
Starting point is 00:49:45 which is really behind the fluoride and the water stuff as well. I mean, just look at any projects or reservations that they put the Indians on. It's all just depression, drug use going rampant because why wouldn't you? There's nothing else for you to do. You have no responsibilities. Yeah, they would do that on the Indian reservations. Very good example. I mean, that predates the concentration camps, the Nazis, and all the rest of the stuff.
Starting point is 00:50:12 And, of course, they took away the Indians' ability to provide for themselves, which was nomadic. They locked them up. Wouldn't even let them grow their own crops. It was a horrific situation. But it is exactly what they're trying to do with technology now with these smart cities. And the corruption of the government agencies that ran at the Bureau of Indian Affairs is legendary as well. Narrow Way, Narrow Gates ministry. Gas stations are already beginning to run out of diesel fuel with no resupply date.
Starting point is 00:50:42 It began in Fort Myers yesterday. The fuel shortage has begun and will continue slowly, but we'll pick up as supply dwindles. Yeah, that'll be a metric for Dave Rubin. I mean, this guy has already be clowned himself with all of his predictions about what was going to happen with a war. Now he doubles down on that with all of his blind faith and partisan politics. and Donald Trump. It's just incredible. No valid Charlie says, fix your eyes and teeth now. Learn to grow food, learn to forage food, learn to make and use colloidal silver. I absolutely agree. That's all very good advice.
Starting point is 00:51:22 Well, we're going to take a quick break. And when we come back, we're going to talk a little bit about the developments in the corruption wing of the, it's not actually a wing, it's the entire regime the Trump regime what broke yesterday with the slush fund as well as with Epstein. So we're going to take a quick break and we'll be right back, folks. You're listening to the David Knight Show. If you like the Eagles, The Cars, and Huey Lewis in the News, love the classic hits channel at APS Radio.
Starting point is 00:52:49 Download our app or listen now at APSRadio.com. And oh, by the way, you know, as we began by talking about the fact that gold surpassed U.S. government bonds in terms of foreign central bank holdings, you may want to pay attention to that and mimic that for yourself. And if you want to do that, if you want to start having physical gold that you control yourself, so it's not controlled by these hucksters in Wall Street or in Shanghai Gold Exchange or something like that, go to David Knight. That'll take you to Tony Ardabin, the guy who was telling us that that was happening. before it got picked up by the mainstream media and the Drudge Report, David Knight. Dot Gold will take you to Tony Ardivins and Wise Wolf. You can start to accumulate even small amounts of gold on a regular basis. That's something that Tony does that other people do not do.
Starting point is 00:53:38 And, of course, he can also help you with your IRA. He can help you with to get that into metals, gold and silver. He can also handle any large transactions that you want as well. But you can set up a regular savings program to kind of average out the, dollar cost of this stuff as people are still jumping around in every pronouncement from Trump one way or the other. Again, David Knight.Gold. And then, of course, gold is not the only thing that is on sale right now. Homestead Products. Shop has got a couple of interesting things. We've got organic mimosa tea. Just relax a little bit. Chill out. Have some mimosa tea instead of a moon pie,
Starting point is 00:54:19 as a matter of fact, doesn't have all that sugar in it. And also on sale right now, at Homestead Products. Shop is dehydration fresh eggs. It has no antibiotics, no hormones, and it's from their own free-range chickens, and it will last for two years. That should help you get well into this depression that they are engineering on us right now. Again, those dehydrated eggs that will last for two years
Starting point is 00:54:47 in a very excellent packaging. That is on sale right now at Homesteadproducts. Well, the Trump administration, after all the pressure yesterday, I talked about this weaponization fund and how all these Republicans were saying, you've got to stop this. I mean, even a very conservative congresswoman in Florida was pushing back against that. Lindsey Graham was pushing back against it. So the Trump administration late yesterday said they're going to drop the weaponization fund. As a matter of fact, we had Todd Blanche was on talking about this. He went to Congress and he had this to say.
Starting point is 00:55:22 We are not moving forward with the fund, period. We, we, the reasons for the fund is something that President Trump talked about for a long time, which is the fact that there were a lot of people in this country who had their government weaponized against them. The reasons for the fund, I think, were, were, we remain as important as they were before, but we are not moving forward with the fund. Not moving forward ever. Correct. Oh, there's no more fund then.
Starting point is 00:55:50 Well, to the extent there was a fund. the fund wasn't set up yet. There were no commissioners named. There was no, you had a plan. No claims brought anything in front of, there was no claims made yet. So yes, we're not moving forward with the fund. You and Associate Attorney General Woodward signed earlier documents regarding the settlement and this fund. Would both of you now sign and release documents reversing the DOJ's position on the fund? I'm not, we're not moving forward with the fund. I'm not sure what that means to sign documents reversing. There's nothing to reverse. We're not moving forward with the fund. We know about the court case, the decision when we've heard press reports,
Starting point is 00:56:33 obviously, but is there any way that you could put this in writing? I don't know if there are other ways that you could use another vehicle to move forward with a similar fund or similar intention. And we just want to reassure the American public. We've heard from both Republicans and Democrats, constituents and Americans across the country about this fund. And I think they would love to be reassured that this fund will not progress. I'm telling you it's not. I guess I'm not sure. I'm not trying to be flip up with you.
Starting point is 00:57:07 Well, see, the thing is that just as I was talking about yesterday, the judge that they were taking this before, they made all these announcements about what they had agreed to. Yeah, Trump was suing for $10 billion. So we came up in an agreement for about $10. two billion of that. And she said, wait a minute, nobody told me about this. I didn't get any your official paperwork on all this stuff until after you made this announcement. What's going on with this? And so she's investigating them for fraud at the request of 35 retired federal judges
Starting point is 00:57:37 who were picked by both Republicans and Democrats over a period of time. And so there are a lot of questions about the fraudulent nature of this stuff. And of course, he has not said that he's going to change the statement that he wrote after that, saying that the IRS will never investigate the Trump family, which is worth $100 million to them. Again, all this stuff about it being about J6 people was just a distraction. It was a distraction of Trump trying to redirect attention away from him helping himself to a fortune, a literal fortune. So he threw in the J-6ers, I said they're not going to get any money out of this. And all the people started talking about that and criticizing him for that.
Starting point is 00:58:21 I said, that's not really what it's about. It's about Trump himself. And it still is about Trump himself. To be given the ability to not ever be audited. Did they do that for any of the other rich people and billionaires who had their information leaked? No. None of them sued, as a matter of fact. And none of them got any immunity against any IRS audits moving forward.
Starting point is 00:58:45 and so, you know, there was a lot of people that this information was leaked by a contractor to the IRS who worked for Booz Allen Hamilton, and he wanted to expose these rich people who don't pay any taxes. And so we saw people like George Soros and Bill Gates and on and on, Elon Musk, you name it, Bezos. Yeah, they're not paying much in taxes if they pay anything at all. I think George Soros hadn't paid taxes for three years. And so he was trying to embarrass that.
Starting point is 00:59:12 None of them sued the government. none of them got immunity from the IRS audits except for Trump. And when you talk about the J6 stuff, again, that was something that absolutely was a non-sequitur from a legal standpoint. You cannot sue saying the IRS did something to me over here. So now these people are not a party to that are going to get paid compensation. It was amateur legal stuff that Todd Blanche was doing. He still is doing all of this stuff. As a matter of fact, it also came up about Epstein, and he had this to say.
Starting point is 00:59:52 There's a lot in here. I am shocked at this. There's also this set of files in the file. This is investigation into the potential co-conspirators of Jeffrey Epstein. I almost use up all the blank ink in the hallway because it's all covered up. It's all covered up. Got to get more toner. American people are not stupid.
Starting point is 01:00:16 They know that when members of Congress have to go in and actually unredact, try to find the truth for these victims, something is corrupt. Something is corrosive. Yeah, there is something really, really corrupt, isn't there? As a matter of fact, the Treasury is now readying the Trump $250 bill. And again, there is a law against that sort of thing, but that's not going to stop Trump. He's going to get Mike Johnson, this time, instead of just doing what he wants and fighting it in the court. This time, he's going to take the approach of getting his sycophantic House Speaker, Mike Johnson, to change the law. The law was there to stop any living person from appearing on U.S. currency.
Starting point is 01:01:05 Existing law does not authorize a $250 Federal Reserve note either. But legislation's already been introduced to solve both of those problems, at least on paper. But what do we do about a guy who is not just a drunken sailor like Pete Hagsuff? What do we do about a guy who's drunk on narcissism and vanity? That's really what we're talking about with Trump. As one person suggested, if Trump wants his face on money so bad, bring back the penny. It's already orange and worthless. And it costs more to make than it is worth.
Starting point is 01:01:39 It's a perfect metaphor for Trump. Not the $250 bill, but of course the $250 bill. is a perfect metaphor for the kind of inflation that he's bringing to us. The $250 bill is the new penny. That's right. American tradition is that ordinary currency avoids living leaders. This goes back to 1866 after the superintendent of the National Currency Bureau appeared on a five-cent fractional currency note.
Starting point is 01:02:07 This caused a public outroar. Congress responded by banning the portrait or likeness of any living person on currency notes, bonds, or securities. And there is a larger lesson in this. Public money should not become a vanity project for officials who still hold power. But everything in this administration is a vanity project for Trump. So, you know, whether you're looking at him, going out and trolling the Kennedy Center by putting his name on a line above the title of the building, that has now been removed, as I pointed out, he had a bad week last week when they took that down. but his image has been on a lot of different things. They've got him on the National Park passes.
Starting point is 01:02:51 He's got it on passports. They've put his picture up on many government buildings like the Department of Justice, like he was some kind of a fascist dictator. Oh, wait. Then you've got the National Park Service, which has put his picture on the Park Pass. And they are warning people because so many people are putting stickers over Trump's face. I can understand.
Starting point is 01:03:14 They don't want to see this scowling face looking back at him. So they put stickers over it. So the park service says that your park pass will be invalid. If you cover Trump's face with a sticker. How about that? They can't do that. National parks used to protect glaciers and wildlife, says Mike Levin. Not Mark Levin, but Mike Levin.
Starting point is 01:03:37 He says, but now they're apparently responsible for protecting one man's feelings. I would say his vanity. And so the State Department unveiled their limited edition passport design for 250th anniversary. That includes Trump's portrait. So he's got his portrait on park passes, on passports. He wants to put it on currency. People want to deface him. And they're saying, well, you're going to invalidate all this.
Starting point is 01:04:07 And, of course, he also, I think this is one of the most ridiculous things. they renamed the U.S. Institute of Peace, named it after him. This guy is so obsessed with a Nobel Peace Prize, with getting his face associated with peace, and yet I have not seen a bigger warmonger in my entire lifetime. I mean, just the other day, he was saying, well, Oman better watch it, or blow them off the map if they do this or do that.
Starting point is 01:04:37 And it's a, that's, that, that, kind of threats of violence. Basically, it's terrorism when you talk like that. We see that all of the time. They would like to control. Nobody's going to control it. It's international waters. And Oman will behave just like everybody else who will have to blow them up. They understand that. They'll be fine. Yeah, we'll have to blow them up. So Trump's faces also appeared on large banners at federal buildings, including the Department of Justice, the Department of Labor, and the Agriculture, agriculture buildings. It's just insane what this guy is doing. He is not just stupid and derange, but he is a level of narcissism that you just not seen before. You see this all the time with
Starting point is 01:05:25 powerful people. Yes, they are egotistical and narcissistic, but never to this extent. He's also put his name on a lot of federal initiatives. We have the TrumpRX.gov, the Trump accounts, the Trump gold cards, which, by the way, nobody is interested. and paying one to five million dollars to get at the head of the line on these green cards. The Trump Institute of Peace. Yeah, welcome to the Donald J. Trump Institute of Peace. The best is yet to come. Yeah, we're still waiting for peace, aren't we?
Starting point is 01:05:59 There have also been efforts to rename airports after him. I think the thing that is going to be attached to his name forever is Jeffrey Epstein. It's always going to be Epstein and Trump. He may want to attach his name to the JFK building, but it's always going to be Epstein and Trump. That's the reality that is going to be haunting him and Melania for the rest of their life. As a matter of fact, in addition to the support of the Epstein discharge petition, Nancy Mace has spearheaded other efforts to bring Epstein's sex crimes against children to the public light.
Starting point is 01:06:37 and yet she doesn't do it, right? Everybody's talking about it, but they don't do anything about it. The most amazing thing that I saw about all this was this statement from Alan Dershowitz, if you remember, this guy who is now because of Israel, Alan Dershowitz, this leftist New York City Democrat, is now supporting this leftist New York City Democrat Donald Trump because of their common love for Israel. But it was Alan Dershowitz, who was one of the two defense attorneys for Jeff,
Starting point is 01:07:07 Jeffrey Epstein, and he had this to say about Epstein being a spy. Could it be that Jeffrey Epstein just had a completely different life that he just did not tell you about? And it may also have included being a spy. I mean, clearly... Telling me that he worked for the Mossad would have given him a get-out-of-jail-free card. I could have gotten him no jail time. If he had told me he worked for the Mossad for the CIA, it would have been a slam dunk for me to go to whoever I had to go to, even up to the president of the United States,
Starting point is 01:07:37 and I would have gotten him a deal with no time at all. I have a second. You mean, if he said he was working with the Mossad or CIA, then he would get off being a pedophile. That's right. Because they do that stuff all the time. That's their MO, right? Yeah, they could have gotten a slam dunk case,
Starting point is 01:07:59 gotten him to get off Scott Free, get him the sweetheart deal where he, doesn't have to spend a bunch of time in prison like he got. That's exactly what he got. And that's exactly what Alex Acosta, who was the prosecutor who worked with Alan Dershowitz and who worked with Ken Starr. Ken Starr is supposedly this conservative Republican lawyer. He's worked with every Democrat criminal.
Starting point is 01:08:23 I mean, he let Bill Clinton off and he worked to get Jeffrey Epstein off. That's who Ken Starr really is. And Alex Acosta, who was the federal prosecutor, when he was questioned about this back before this all really blew up big, he said, I was told that he was intelligence and to leave him alone. He was told that he worked for CIA, that he worked for Mossad, and that's why he was given the sweetheart deal, where he could basically, it was on day release, just like Otis the town drunk from Andy Griffith show. He already got that sweetheart deal. And so that's the most amazing thing is that Pierce Morgan let,
Starting point is 01:09:03 Alan Dershowitz say that, but you heard what Alan Dershowitz said right there. He said, so he was, if he had been openly said that he was with Mossad, he'd be let loose. He says, wait so while and he goes, yeah, because that's their MO. That's what they do. They set up honey traps and they blackmail people. And of course, the CIA does that as well. And so the question is, when is the truth going to come out of this? But we already know the truth. And we know they're not going to do anything about it. It's just like they're not going to do anything about the COVID stuff. But if Trump is worried about his name, he is never going to get the stench of Epstein off, no matter how many things he puts his name on.
Starting point is 01:09:43 And all of this stuff about the Peace Institute and the Nobel Peace Prize, that all just makes him look more desperate and phony. You want to say something like that? Epstein Island asks, why can't Trump go to prison for child molestation? Well, because he works for the same people. That's right. that's right yeah they would have to impeach him first and then they could send him to prison and i certainly do support uh both of those things happening well we're going to take a quick break and when we come
Starting point is 01:10:12 back i want to talk about you know you talk about people getting away with murder literally right well that's what happened in the uk and there was a heinous case there of an 18 year old who was stabbed by a Sikh uh they're allowed to carry ceremonial knives and nobody else in the UK be armed with anything, right? Nobody can have guns for protection. Imagine that. But not even knives. They come after you very strongly if you've got even like a kitchen knife. But these guys can have ceremonial knives, which can, and swords, which can kill people. And so there was an altercation, and the police show up. And this Sikh guy says, he's a racist. He was yelling stuff. And And meanwhile, this guy that he has stabbed is bleeding out.
Starting point is 01:11:02 And we're talking about how horrific this is. I've had this in the deck and I haven't gotten to it for over a week. But now we've had in the last day or so, we've had footage from the body cameras showing this young guy dying and showing the way the police were treating him. And it is beyond disgusting. But it is a metaphor, folks, for what is happening in our society. We're going to cover that when we come back. We'll be right back.
Starting point is 01:13:05 You're listening to the David Knight Show. Whether you're feeling like the blues or blue grass, APS Radio has you covered. Check out a wide variety of channels on our app at APSRadio.com. All right, welcome back. And Marky Mark, New Jersey says, why is Trump trying to sour relations with Oman? Since they're on the Arabian Peninsula, we've always tried to have a good relationship with them.
Starting point is 01:13:33 And again, when you look at it, it was in the context of this toll situation. And, of course, Oman and Iran have cooperated on, I think it was liquid petroleum, liquid natural gas. And they had a partnership with that. And so what they were saying was, well, we'll split the toll with Oman since, you know, Iran is on one side of that narrowest area. And Oman is on the other one. But, you know, you could ask yourself the question, Why did Trump pick a fight with Canada? Why did he pick a fight with Greenland?
Starting point is 01:14:05 This is Mr. Peace that is out there. Everything about this guy is about picking fights. He wants to pick fights with people because that's his MO. That's what makes him look important. And quite frankly, when you look at this particular thing in the UK, you can look at this and say, you know, why is this happening in our countries? And I think the reaction to all this stuff, I can already see people out there.
Starting point is 01:14:32 There's so many memes out there saying, well, when the police killed George Floyd, that was riots all over the world. But a white guy gets killed like this and nobody pays any attention to it. Don't fall for that. That's the entire reason why they opened up their country to this because they want that kind of conflict. Because they want to pick one side, because they want you fighting the other side rather than fighting them. See, the real issue is not even as much the people that they brought in, that they brought in that they knew would be dangerous, that would be raping women, they'll be murdering people in the streets. It's not even about them as much as it is about the people who did that to you, the people who protect that. And as we're looking at this, this is the picture that is now circling around.
Starting point is 01:15:19 As I said, they handcuffed this guy who was the victim, who was stabbed, who died. They handcuffed him and would not give him. any medical aid as he bled out. And so this picture is going around. This is, you'll see the blue gloves there of the police handcuffing him. And that white hand there is the guy who is losing all of his blood. He's bleeding out there on the street. And for the people who say, well, we couldn't get anybody.
Starting point is 01:15:47 That's the first excuse from the police was. We couldn't get anybody there quickly enough. You'll see as I play this for you, and I'm going to play it narrated by his father. His father, his sister, and his mother were on the courthouse steps after this guy with a knife and the sword, ceremonial sword, murdered him. He's been convicted of murder, but the penalty that he's getting is very light. In the UK, they don't have the death penalty. He's, I think, 23 years old. He will go to jail for 21 years minimum, and gave him a life sentence, but he's not going to do life.
Starting point is 01:16:24 He'll get out probably at the age of it. 44. And in terms of whether or not something could be done, the police said, well, nothing could have been done in time. No, he survived for an hour. That's how long they left him there, bleeding on the sidewalk, handcuffed, after they handcuffed him and drug him over the gravel. And the other guy was never even handcuffed that was there. And so I want to play for you. And he was on his way to a hospital when they arrested him. Yeah, yeah. They, they, They stopped him from going to hospital, handcuffed him, drug him across the gravel, and let him bleed out. That's your government.
Starting point is 01:17:04 That is a metaphor for what they're doing to Europe in general. And folks, it is a metaphor for what Trump and the Republicans are doing to us with Israel, with the anti-Semitic charges. They want to destroy this country and turn it over. The biggest traders are at the top. That's who you've got to get really angry with, the people at the top. But here is the family describing this, and I intermix it with the actual body camera footage. Henry did nothing wrong. He was one of the kindest, friendliest, and most inclusive people you could ever hope to me.
Starting point is 01:17:41 He was amazing in every way. On the 3rd of December last year, Henry was walking home from a night out with his university football teammates when he encountered Vikram Degwa. a man openly carrying a large knife on the streets of Britain. That knife was used to take Henry's life. He should have been safe walking home. Instead, he became another young life loss to the brutal reality of knife crime in this country. Henry had been stabbed multiple times, and as his chest filled with blood, he tried to escape. He was chased, abused and filmed by Vikram Degwa and others.
Starting point is 01:18:33 When police arrived, Henry was lying on the floor, barely able to sit up and plainly in severe medical distress. I was in bed to sleep, whenever he was fighting up, they hurt someone to catch. Grab his other arm. Clavis. What's happened to you, right? You've been stabbed, whereabouts? Don't think you have, mate. Hand?
Starting point is 01:19:02 What you're gonna keep you up, hand? What are you in the cuff, mate? Yeah. This is the... This is the... This is like... You've been walking,
Starting point is 01:19:20 you've been walking, you're into foot. With his final words, he told officers that he could not breathe. He told them he had been stabbed. In fact, Henry told officers that he could not breathe nine times. He told them he had been stabbed four times. The response from one officer was, I don't think you have, mate. Keep you on your side, mate.
Starting point is 01:19:58 You've had a red reef then? So again. Saying to him, keeping him on his side. We were sad when we had him here, but he didn't like it. The police have said they were misled by the murderer and that the scene when they arrived was complex. Unfortunately, it seems to us that truth is much simpler. The police were told by our son himself
Starting point is 01:20:23 and by a member of the public who called 999 that they heard someone shout that they had been stabbed. but the police did not believe them. Henry was pulled across the gravel, his hands forced behind his back, and he was placed in handcuffs. Instead of being treated as a dying victim, police formally arrested Henry for assault
Starting point is 01:20:47 and read him his rights. What's your name, mate? By the moment you are under arrest, that's for assault, so you do not have to say anything may harm in defence. If you do not make your mind questioned, something which you later line of court, anything you do say may be given an evidence, right?
Starting point is 01:21:02 That was the last thing he heard. Henry did not die with dignity. He did not die with the care he deserved. He lost consciousness before anyone believed him. It's going to be sick, I think. First want you to call it. Yeah, we've got this male. He's been beat up.
Starting point is 01:21:39 Are we able to get an ambulance, please? We hold Vikram Digwa, solely and 100% responsible, for the brutal murder of our son. But Henry should not have died on the streets of Southampton in police custody. The way he was treated was inhumane. It absolutely is amazing. It's beyond belief.
Starting point is 01:22:04 But we've gone on a long time, and I want to get Gerald on because I wanted to get his take on this as well. It was one of the reasons I wanted to play that. But this is a metaphor, really, really, for what is happening to our countries, not just in Europe, but also in America, how the life is being drained out of us for the benefit of people now in Europe. They're bringing in the people who are at the bottom of society. They're bringing in masses of poor people who are committing crimes. With us, it's coming in at the top. With us, it is the Zionist billionaires who are taking over our country and bleeding us out. And it is our government that is conspiring with them to use them to destroy our country.
Starting point is 01:22:49 Joining us now is Gerald Salinty of Trendsjournal.com. And again, you can save 10% off if you use the code night at Trends Journal. And Gerald, I started the program earlier today talking about economics and the fact that they have been lying to us. There's an excellent article from Brownstone, Jeffrey Tucker, where he was talking about how they lie to us with every one of the metrics. And of course, we've known that. They manipulate the inflation numbers, the employment numbers and all the rest of the stuff.
Starting point is 01:23:19 But as he looked at it, he said, there's a guy who's putting together real metrics using artificial intelligence to help him ferret through all of this buried data and get the right information. He said, if you look at his information, we have been in recession since 2022. He said, they tell you that, and forget maybe you know what the metric is. If you go two or three quarters, we have negative growth, then you're in the recession. session. He said every quarter has been in negative growth except for a couple and they were they were basically zero growth since 2022. So you've been talking about the fact that it was going to be worse than stagflation and this there's going to be dragflation and we have been in stagflation for quite some time and I think it's getting ready to accelerate into dragflation.
Starting point is 01:24:09 What do you think? It's going on all over the world. Yeah. You got Germany, France, one country after another, the UK, everybody, the whole world. And a bad situation, again, people forget what happened back in 2020. It's ancient history. They call the COVID war, quote, a pandemic. The world horror organization, oh, excuse me, the World Health Organization, called it a pandemic. It broke out on China, on Chinese.
Starting point is 01:24:44 Lunar New Year, the year of the rat, in January of 2020, January, February, March, three months later, they called it a pandemic when less than 5,000 people died out of 8 billion. Yeah. If they even died from that, right? Exactly. And again, going back to the data, the second country to lock down was Italy, when the average age of the people dying was 81 years old. That's right. That's right. And we reported that at the time. I remember John Rappaport was one who I first saw uncover that information. And we were talking
Starting point is 01:25:26 about it. I had John Rappapur on. He said, yeah, look at this. I mean, you know, they have on average two and a half comorbidities, things that could easily kill them on their own. And their age is over life expectancy. He said, this is not a pandemic at all. No. So going back to what happened. they locked down everything. Yeah, yeah. They destroy the global economy. That's right.
Starting point is 01:25:49 Hey, don't worry. Go home. Here's some free money. You're right. Hey, hey, hey, we're going to bring interest rates down to zero, all right? Hey, I'm a little slime ball. I'm a member of the Federal Reserve Bankster Bandit gang. I'm the head.
Starting point is 01:26:07 I'm Jerome Powell, some piece of scum. There's no inflation, Salenti. We were writing how bad inflation was. He didn't say that about me. No inflation. It's only temporary. Yeah. Remember?
Starting point is 01:26:23 Oh, no, no. There's inflation going up. We have Ms. Fasja Blute, that Janet Yellen, the former Fed head, that was the Treasury Secretary under Biden. Yeah, yeah. It's only transitory. Why, I find that exalt. How about making it transgender?
Starting point is 01:26:43 Let's really be stupid. Yeah. And what they did, they created inflation by the globe pumping out all of this cheap money back by nothing and printed on nothing. Yeah. Totally. Hey, you want to go buy a car? Out of prices only went up 40% since then. Hey, you want to, how about buying a house?
Starting point is 01:27:08 How the prices went up over a little 50%. Yeah. And, you know, the people that are out there, I reported this about a week ago, Jared Bernstein, who was one of Biden's economic advisors. And, of course, you look at this guy's history. He's a musician. He's not an economist. And so he absolutely has no clue. And somebody said, after we talked about that and laughed about this guy, he said, yeah, I just realized for the first time, I really do think now that debt is an issue.
Starting point is 01:27:38 You know, once we get to $40 trillion, it's an issue. It's like, really? You just figured that out. And somebody sent me a clip of him where he's being asked. People said, so if the government is printing the money, why do we need to borrow that? Why do we need to pay interest? And he just stumbled around and hemmed and haught. He had absolutely no idea.
Starting point is 01:27:57 He goes, well, I don't know. He goes, I mean, we are printing the money and we are doing it. I'm not really sure why that's there. And he keeps going back and mumbling something about modern monetary theory, MMT. But it truly is amazing when you look at all this. And, of course, Kevin Warsh, the new Fed chair, has already talked about how he's going to have a new metric to calculate inflation. They're going to rig it yet again. Yep.
Starting point is 01:28:21 So they could lower the interest rates to keep propping up the failing economy. This is an article that just came out yesterday from the conference board. They said that the business council conducted a survey, and they found that the overall score of business confidence fell to 47 in the second quarter from 59 in the first quarter. Any reading below 50 means negative outlooks. Only 15% of the CEOs said the economy is better than six months ago. What kind of moron would say it's better? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:29:08 What kind of imbecile crap are you spilling? out. Hey, hey, idiots, how about looking at the facts, huh? Yeah, that's right. And when you're talking about the debt level, it's not $40 trillion. When you put in Social Security government debt, it's more like $120 trillion. Yeah, that's right. And now with interest rates so high, they've got to pay more on their debt. This is the beginning of the death of the dollar. It's the death of this country. We didn't have to be bomb. by another country. We, we,
Starting point is 01:29:45 these slime ball, idiot morons that jokes call politicians that are nothing more than low-life pieces of crap from this country to hell in a city near you. That's right.
Starting point is 01:29:59 Everybody, almost everybody locked out. You see the roads up here. We've got this little clown boy over here, this noble, ignoble. I was, I was running a zoo before I became the mayor.
Starting point is 01:30:12 My daddy got me here. The roads are like crap. The place is a jerk. You look at the streets. You'll look at crap. Go to New York City. Boom, boom, boom, bump, all over the roads. The bridges are crap.
Starting point is 01:30:28 Hey, take a trip on in the subway. It's a night in Calcutta. No, we didn't get bombed out by another country. The political pieces of scum bomb this country into ruin. Yeah. The demo crap. and the repulsive kids. That's right.
Starting point is 01:30:46 And when you look at this horrific case of this 18-year-old who was stabbed and then the police, handcuff him and denied him medical treatment and he bled to death over the hour that they were delaying any medical treatment to him. I said that's a perfect metaphor. You know, they're doing this and now you've got people who are riding in the streets. They're very angry about this happening and comparing it to George Floyd and all the rest of the stuff. But they want us fighting each other. And really what we see with this is it's a metaphor. about what is being done in Europe.
Starting point is 01:31:16 It's also a metaphor I think about what is being done here in America. They are literally bleeding us out economically in many different ways as they've got us handcuffed. That's what our government is doing. And it's a bipartisan thing. It's Trump as well as it's Biden. Oh, yeah. Hey, how about, look what they did to people in ice.
Starting point is 01:31:34 Look at how they kill those guys. Yeah. Look at what they were doing. Oh, there's ice crap. That's right. Oh, Homeland Security, brought to us by a little. piece of scum, a little rotten, lying daddy's boy who should be in jail, or maybe they should do that they do in other states, execute them for lying us into the Iraq war.
Starting point is 01:31:58 Little Georgie Bush, he gave us Homeland Security. That costs us how many hundreds of, how many billions of dollars every year? Oh, Homeland Security did not exist. That's right. And that's when we did have security for the homeland. And it was Donald Trump when he was running said, well, I don't understand why Nancy Pelosi didn't impeach Bush over what he did with the Iraq war and all the rest of the stuff.
Starting point is 01:32:24 And now look at what this guy's doing. You know, it's even worse when you look at it. And what Jeffrey Tucker was, I want to say Jeffrey Epstein, Jeffrey Tucker was saying, he said, so far we have seen double-digit declines in GDP overall since 2020. since the pandemic. He says the cumulative loss has been spread out over six years. He goes,
Starting point is 01:32:48 the problem is we've already had roughly half of the losses that happened over the full period of the Great Depression. But the difference is that they've been able to hide it from people. They lie to everybody. Trump is out there talking about how he's winning and we're doing great and we've never had things this good before. And people, meanwhile, they lie through the statistics about employment and inflation. And people are just looking at it.
Starting point is 01:33:12 think, well, I guess it's just me. Same type of lies that they pulled on us during the COVID stuff, right? People are looking at this and saying, you know, this doesn't really add up. It's not what I'm seeing my personal life. Well, you just don't understand because we've got, here's what we're seeing nationally and that type of thing. It's the same type of thing they're playing on us. Now they're doing it economically. And this is already half of the Great Depression has hit.
Starting point is 01:33:39 And it's global. Yeah. It's global. You look what's going on in India. They started this movement called the cockroach party, a Gen Z. One of the head of the Modi's party called the young people cockroaches. And so they started a cockroach party. It's like the known things.
Starting point is 01:34:02 Yeah, young people are broke. That's why this guy, again, as a trend forecaster, it's not what you like, what you want, what you wish for. It's what is. This guy, Mondani. that won. Nobody. Nobody ever heard of the guy a year before he was running.
Starting point is 01:34:19 Gen Z. That's right. They got no jobs. They got no future. Bangladesh, India, Tanzania, one country after Nepal. Gen Z, Gen Z,
Starting point is 01:34:33 they're fighting against the governments. They have no future. Again, the big zone everything. Again, you and I've talked about this a hundred times. When we were young guys, there were hardware stores. There were grocery stores.
Starting point is 01:34:48 There were drug stores. There were shoes stores. There were clothing stores. There were fish stores. Now everything is a chain. Yes. They did away with the antitrust laws. And this little slime ball,
Starting point is 01:35:04 a t-shirt I did when he ran for office in 1992, was one of the worst. slick Willie. Oh, remember the Glass-Steagel act? Oh, I forgot that. All right, one after another. And Jimmy Carter, Jimmy Carter,
Starting point is 01:35:20 that slime ball that everybody looks up to? Oh, the guy that gave us al-Qaeda? No, no. Let's call it Mujahideen back then. We got to fight those Russians because they're trying to stop the Taliban over there in Afghanistan. Oh, that's the guy that began the push
Starting point is 01:35:37 for interstate banking. Back then, there was only intrastate banking. Bank of America was only in California. The bigs have taken over the entire country because these
Starting point is 01:35:52 low life pieces of scum that weren't worth a penny before they got into office are now multi-millionaires because they got paid off. This is not a republic or a democracy. It's
Starting point is 01:36:08 fascism. The merger of state and corporate powers. That's the definition of Mussolini. Yep, that's right. Yeah, take a look at that presidential library that Obama just opened up. The people who live there in that poor community, they are livid about it. It's one of the ugliest things I've ever seen in my life, and it costs nearly a billion dollars to put that thing up there. Can you imagine a billion dollars for this lying piece of scum, the Nobel Peace of Crap Prize winner that lied his way into office? I'm going to bring peace. I'm going to bring peace. I'm going to bring peace.
Starting point is 01:36:39 I'm going to bring peace, just like Trump. And what did he do? As soon as he got in, the Afghan troop surge. Oh, look what he did to Libya. Oh, everybody forgot that. It was the richest country in Africa. People had more rights and benefits than most of the world. Big tourism place.
Starting point is 01:37:01 I want that guy Gaddafi added here. Oh, brought to you by Obama, Samantha Power, Susan Rice and Hitleri Clinton. Yeah. Remember when they asked Hitler, how do you feel that you found out Gaddafi was killed? We came, we saw, he died. He can't make this crap up.
Starting point is 01:37:26 That's right. How about Madeline not all that bright? Remember, huh? Yeah, yeah. And if you go back and look at the emails that Julian Assange put out there, You can see how Hillary was saying, hey, we've got to get this guy in Libya because he's setting up a gold-backed currency that's going to compete against our fiat. Junk garbage that's out there. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:37:48 So it does come back to this money stuff as well. You know, we see what is happening on the streets. We see how they have deliberately sabotaged our societies. And yet, it's the people of the top who are literally bleeding us to death in so many different ways. Yep. and they don't give a penny for peace. That's right. Nothing.
Starting point is 01:38:10 That's right. Nothing. Zero. Oh, I had, you know, I had Warren Buffett's little boy. Peter Buffett was a tenant in one of my buildings. They had the Novo Foundation. Came to one of my peace rallies and never gave me a penny. Never get, a matter of fact, he wouldn't even say hello to me.
Starting point is 01:38:30 I'm a little giddy from the Bronx. Don't you know my daddy is? Oh, my daddy came from another rich family, These arrogant pieces of scum. They don't give crap back to the country. Oh, they hated the Carnegie's, but look what the Carnegie's did with the libraries, remember? Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 01:38:49 Yeah. They don't give crap back pennies. Oh, and look at that little Gates. Hey, Gates, as we say in the Bronx, you couldn't get laid in a whorehouse with a fistful of $10 bills. Yeah, you're right. That's why I'm a friend of Epstein.
Starting point is 01:39:05 I pay tens of thousands of dollars to get laid. Yeah, yeah. Absolutely is true. But, you know. Look at these guys. When you talk about... And that's the other reason why this Iran war is going on. Israel has, I believe, they have a lot of Epstein dirt on Trump.
Starting point is 01:39:27 Oh, yeah, I think so. Yeah. Absolutely. And it's kind of funny, you know, there's supposedly this tough talk that, Trump gave them, I mean, they just mentioned over and over again, you know, how tough Trump was and how he was screaming at him and cursing at him, all the rest of the stuff. I don't believe that for a minute. I absolutely is. They're trying to make Trump look like he's got a spine.
Starting point is 01:39:51 He doesn't have a spine when it comes to Netanyahu. I mean, they do whatever they want. Look what they're doing to the palace, the Lebanese people. Yeah. They've driven over a million and a 1.3 million people out of it. their homes. That's right. Do you, everybody listening?
Starting point is 01:40:09 Get out of your home. It's my word. God told me, I'm chosen. Get the hell out of here. That's right. Oh, no, no. We're stopping in Hezbollah.
Starting point is 01:40:21 Oh, those militants, them terrorists. Oh, you mean Hezbollah? The Lebanese men that drove Israel out of Lebanon? That's right. They were a reaction to Israel's first invasion. Yeah. And they call them all the prostitutes. media calls them militants and terrorists. That's right. Yeah. Yeah, when you threaten people
Starting point is 01:40:41 with the use of force or bombs as Trump threatened Oman just recently, we never had any issue with them, when you use force like that and threats like that and you attack civilian populations, that's what I always thought terrorism was. I still think that's what terrorism is. And so when you look at this greater Israel project, we all understand what truly is about. And we understand that, as are doing this in Lebanon, they're now attacking Christians. And this is something that these people like Huckabee and others, you know, he is just, he wants to be a Jew and they need to go ahead and make him one and take him down and circumcise him, I guess, because he just can't get over this stuff. He probably, probably been cut off already, would you kidding? Yeah, it truly is amazing.
Starting point is 01:41:28 But he just can't get enough of this stuff. And it truly is, we look at, what do you think about this week, we hear rumblings about how they're going to unify the U.S. and the Israeli military into the next NDAA, which is always a must-pass piece of legislation. And so now they're going to pull this together, unify them even more, give them even more money, and do it secretly because they're at the end of their 10-year agreement where we agreed to give them billions of dollars a year. And the way CBS reported under Barry Weiss, what they said was, well, Netanyahu says he doesn't want to take that money anymore. And it's like, yeah, he wants a partnership. And they didn't report that. He wants a partnership because he wants a merger with the U.S. military. And he wants to keep this
Starting point is 01:42:14 even more secret than it is right now. And yet you've got the media covering for all of that. Again, we didn't give it to them. The Nobel Peace of Crap Prize winner, Obama gave him, almost $4 billion a year since then. Well, yeah. Yeah. And it's an article in this Week's Trends Journal, United States of Israel, NDAA further integrates U.S. and the Israeli militaries. All right. Yeah. That's right.
Starting point is 01:42:46 This is the Zionist state of America. And Zionism is not a religion. It's made up by some little SOB may rotten hell theater Herzl back in the 1890s. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Nothing to do. Zionism, and we're going to steal that land. Yeah, I've played one clip after the other of people like Lauder, who is the father-in-law of Kevin Warsh, his family has the Estee Lauder Fortune.
Starting point is 01:43:19 One after that, he's also president of the World Jewish Congress, I think is what's called World Jewish Something. And being applauded as he's talking increasingly stridently about how they're going to punish and imprison people who, criticize the state of Israel. And just when you thought the military industrial complex couldn't get any worse, now they're going to merge with Israel, the people who are demanding that we lose our free speech, demanding that they not only be able to cancel us, but they also be able to imprison us.
Starting point is 01:43:50 And then they're going to have all the tools that are available to the military industrial complex, to the police state. That's the direction that they're going to be headed. And then just take a look at this guy that Trump put in there, Pulte. And this guy is straight out of Stalinism. He goes out and he uses his computer, his artificial intelligence to identify enemies of Trump. And, yeah, of course, Leticia James is as corrupt as they come, and she did weaponize government against Trump. That's still not the right way to do it to propagate this and to intensify the fact that whenever we have a regime change,
Starting point is 01:44:23 they're all going to lock each other up from the previous regime. But he also went after Lisa Cook with a Federal Reserve because of a policy difference. And so when Trump is out there saying that he's, going to start looking at people using the tools of government to investigate them for anything they say that is anti-American, what he's really going to be doing is going to be coming after people who are anti-Semitic, that label that they throw on anybody who criticizes that foreign government. Again, they're not Semites.
Starting point is 01:44:56 They're Eastern Europeans. Semites are from the Mesopotamia region. What's Milikowski? No, no, it's the name. Yahoo now. Oh, yeah, I forgot. Benghoreen, they all changed their name. Not all of them. A load of them. They're Eastern Europeans. They're not Semites.
Starting point is 01:45:14 This is stolen land. You know, I read to you before a number of times, the Balfour Declaration, 1917. His Majesty's government declares that the land in Israel, the land in Palestine, will be settled by the Jewish people, and we will use our best endeavors
Starting point is 01:45:31 to achieve the subjective. Oh, yeah, Balfour that sent it to the Rothschilds. Yeah, that one. Yeah, that's right. They made this stuff up. Well, you know, I've got a clip. I didn't play it today, but it's Helen Mirren, who is an actress who has been around for quite a while
Starting point is 01:45:49 and been in a lot of different things. And she had an interview where she said, she was there in the early days. Evidently, she's Jewish. And she said, I saw them dragging people out of their homes and taking their homes and goes, you know, you could look at that. and it was, I'm paraphrasing what she had to say,
Starting point is 01:46:03 but you look at that and it was like really awful. But it served this greater purpose and the beauty of what was happening because, you know, this is, they were creating a homeland, even though, you know, they had to break a lot of heads to do it. A bunch of crap. Yeah, it is amazing how they rationalize and justify what is literally genocide. I mean, you know, the term genocide was coined because of what the Turks were doing to the Armenian Christians.
Starting point is 01:46:28 And it was done by a, Jewish guy. And what they were doing was they were killing massive amounts of civilians because they wanted the land. And it's like, you know, we get to this point and you're going to get the message eventually and you're going to move out. That's exactly what the Israeli government officials were saying about the people in Gaza. They admitted it was a genocide. Well, they got 70% of it now. Yeah, yeah. Now they're going to Lebanon. Let's go back to Zionism. How about Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner? Yeah, go back to your Trans Journal, March 24, about Gaza.
Starting point is 01:47:06 This is very valuable waterfront property, and the Palestinian people should be moved into the Ngev desert. Yeah, yeah. And you're talking about the, how about the West Bank, throwing people out, bomb, destroying it? In violation, in violation of the Geneva Convention, and you were in Article 242. don't call them settlers they're invaders yeah that's right yeah you look at what these settlers do and it
Starting point is 01:47:37 truly is amazing when you see the videos of what they're doing just going out and and throwing people out their homes and uh you know violently and yeah it you know um when you look at the the original genocide again um this woman who works for stink yugar the young turds and i i've never liked his politics i've disagreed with them over his politics but and i thought it's that i thought it was kind of interesting that she is coming from an ancestry that was Armenian. And they were thrown out of their land in that original genocide by Turks. And so now she's one of the co-founders of the young Turks. It's kind of odd. But her grandmother went to Palestine. And they were living there. Then they got thrown out by the Israelis. Yes. This is the kind of thing that is happening
Starting point is 01:48:25 everywhere. And this is just, you know, the bullying tactics of rule by the sword that we're seeing, and this is 100% what Trump wants to do with everything. Yeah, when I told you about that, here it is the Balford Declaration, wrote about this in the Trends Journal in 2006. We called it Crusades 2000. We said that the Balfour Declaration
Starting point is 01:48:52 that laid the foundation of Israel, His Majesty's Government views with favor, the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and we will use our best endeavors to facilitate the achievement of this objective. His Majesty's government? His Majesty. His Majesty. You mean those murderous pieces of scum in the UK where the Sun never sets on the British Empire, and they dress up like little clowns in their costumes,
Starting point is 01:49:23 and you kiss their ring? His Majesty. If he was an Italian, you'd call him a mafia. That's right. His majesty, shove it. Oh, I'm the prince. I'm the princess. I'm the queen.
Starting point is 01:49:38 You're a bunch of pieces of murderous scum. Yeah, that's right. And when you look at what is happening with Greater Israel, they've got soldiers who have the patches showing the map that they want. And Tucker, when he talked to Huckabee, he said, well, you know, if they're going to go back to this biblical description there, and I disagree with that, you know, I believe the Bible. I certainly don't believe their interpretation of what is happening with us. But he says, if you look at this, that goes up and he mentioned all the different countries.
Starting point is 01:50:11 And Huckabee says, yeah, take them all. Well, you know, the country that is also on that list is also Turkey. And Israel is starting to have some issues with Turkey as well. Many people have suggested that maybe that's why Trump is trying to distance himself from NATO. It creates a big problem for the U.S. government if Israel attacks Turkey, doesn't it? Because Turkey is a member of NATO. If Israel attacks Turkey, it would be the end of Israel. And this war is going to ramp up.
Starting point is 01:50:43 They're not going to defeat the Iranians. All the lies. Hey, we destroyed their military. Oh, right? Hey, how about that egg shit guy, huh? Hey, they're toast. They're toast. That was three days after the war began.
Starting point is 01:50:56 The toast. I mean, the quotes, I got so many damn quotes. The war will end when they cry uncle, or when they can't fight any longer. That was Trump on March 7th. Trump, March 20th. I don't want to do a ceasefire. We're getting very close to meeting our objectives.
Starting point is 01:51:17 Yeah. Yeah, what objectives, yeah. Yeah, they changed the regime. They made it worse, didn't they? You ready for this one? They ask when is going to, war is going? going to end? This is March 13th. When I feel it my bones.
Starting point is 01:51:30 Yeah. Yeah. How can you get away with spewing out this crap? Yeah. When I fill in my bones, alright? What? You got so much damn fat, you got bones under there. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:51:46 You ready for this on? This is on April 7th. A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don't want to do that. I don't want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now, you ready? That we have complete and total regime change
Starting point is 01:52:08 with different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail. Maybe something revolutionary, wonderful can happen. Who knows? We'll find out tonight. One of the most important moments in the long, complex history of the world. He's great at doing this professional wrestling stuff, isn't he? Again, this is April 7th.
Starting point is 01:52:37 I own the trademark Presidential Reality Show. Yep, that's right. It's all it is. And when you look at these stories, Axios and everybody's quoting Axios, they've supposedly got these two or three anonymous officials from the Trump administration. Trump hates any kind of leaks. Notice that he doesn't hate what they had to say.
Starting point is 01:53:02 Because what they're saying is, and they repeat it over and over again in their articles, they keep using the term steamrolled. Yeah, he steamrolled BB Netanyahu and all the rest of the stuff. Absolute nonsense. We had one of the listeners here because Trump was so upset at the end of the week last week because all these different acts are canceling on his big party. and he goes, well, I'll just cancel it.
Starting point is 01:53:26 Just like I canceled the, um, um, this other stuff, which he didn't cancel. It was canceled by the courts doing that, but, uh, the tariffs, right? And, and so he says, yeah, I'll cancel that too. Um, he's getting canceled by other people. And, and yet as he says that, he goes, who needs these acts anyway? I can do it myself. And, um, and, um, and he starts talking about how he gets bigger crowds than Elvis. And so, uh, one of the listeners put him in an Elvis suit and had him dancing
Starting point is 01:53:53 with the straight of her moves in the background. And I said, yeah, he put up there caught in a trap. He's like Elvis. You know, I'm caught in a trap and I can't walk out because I love you too much, Bebe. Why can't you see what you're doing to me when they don't believe a word I'm saying? Boy, I tell you, that fits perfectly. That ought to be the song that he sings on July 4th.
Starting point is 01:54:16 You know, dress up in his fat Elvis suit and start gyrating with that stuff, shouldn't he? He moves like this. Yeah. Can you move like this man? You got any looseness in you? Could you go like that? Here, this is yesterday's one of our trend forecasts.
Starting point is 01:54:36 We maintain our trend forecast that the Iran war will not end and in fact it will escalate. Why? Because the United States in Israel will not agree to a number of Iranian demands such as Israel stop bombing Lebanon and stopped stealing
Starting point is 01:54:54 Lebanese, Gaza, and West Bank land. And the United States will not return the money it has seized from Tehran, which, according to Press TV, quote, for 47 years, the United States has held billions of dollars of
Starting point is 01:55:09 legitimate Iranian wealth, oil, revenues, central bank reserves, and commercial assets seized through illegitimate executive orders and maintained through political pressure, end quote, which they say total about $100 billion. Also, Iran will not give the U.S. its enriched uranium.
Starting point is 01:55:34 The U.S. will not lift most sanctions opposed on Iran, and the U.S. will not pay for the damage that resulted from the U.S. in Israeli bombing of Iran. According to the American Jewish Committee, over the course of the four, 40-day campaign. You ready? Mm-hmm. Israel conducted more than 10,800 strikes over 4,000 targets in Iran. Wow. The Israeli Air Force dropped over 18,000 bombs in more than 1,000 waves.
Starting point is 01:56:10 The United States carried out 13,000 strikes on Iran military targets. Mm. Therefore, the long of the war rages, the higher oil prices will rise, and much of the world, as we detail, in this week's and previous trends journal, will sink into dragflation. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:56:34 Yeah, there's an interesting guy as the University of Chicago professor. His name is Robert Pape. And he wrote a book called Bombing to Win. The reason he wrote that was because he started looking at what the U.S. military was doing over and over again. And it's not just Vietnam where they had the metrics. Oh, we dropped X number of bombs like you're just quoting there, right?
Starting point is 01:56:50 Well, therefore, that means, that we are winning, right? There's the same kind of stuff nonsense you hear coming out of Pete Hegsseth. And he pointed out, that does not win wars. You go back and you look at what happened with Korea, right, during the Korean War. It was unbelievable the amount of ordinance was dropped on Korea, basically bombed them into the Stone Age, literally. Still did not win the war.
Starting point is 01:57:12 The same thing could be done with Iran. They're still not going to win the war. And even when it comes to something like reparations, which in order to get that through, it would just be to kind of stand back and say, okay, now you can charge tolls through the Strait of Hormuz. That would essentially take care of that, that disagreement that they've got there, but they're not even going to budge on that. As you point out, they're not going to budge on anything. And they haven't achieved anything either. They did not want to talk about what this war was about. They didn't want to talk about what their goals were that they were going to
Starting point is 01:57:45 accomplish. They didn't want to have a declaration of war. You know, you have a fools rush in where wise men fear to tread. A wise person would have counsel. That's one of the reasons why it's in the Constitution for that. But they didn't do any of that. Instead, they just rushed in. And there's absolutely no way that they've achieved any of these objectives. They didn't want to talk about any objectives because they didn't want to box themselves in with that.
Starting point is 01:58:10 But they couldn't help themselves from talking about how they wanted regime change. They went in the nuclear program. They wanted to do this. They wanted to do that. And every one of these things that have eventually leaked out as de facto objectives, as they try to justify this action, they do have objectives. And every one of those, they've not only not achieved, but they've driven it in the opposite direction, haven't they? Again, this is the Israel war. Israel's doing what they want. They're stealing more Palestinian, Lebanese land.
Starting point is 01:58:42 They're murdering people. this is a very advanced country. It's a beautiful place. Same thing with Gaza. People have no idea how beautiful it used to be. Bob to ruins. This is the United Zionist state of America. Yeah, that's right.
Starting point is 01:59:00 What concerns me, Gerald, is I've seen Jonathan Pollard go on multiple shows, and I've played the clips home, bragging about the fact that Israel blackmailed the United States when Kissinger didn't want to give them weapons in 1973, or just before the Yom Kippur War, they said, send a plane and take your satellite, take a look at this plane. We got parked on the tarmac and look at what's under its wings. And he's real cagey about it. He goes, well, I can't legally say what it was, but it was a non-conventional weapon.
Starting point is 01:59:34 In other words, it was a nuclear weapon. And he blackmailed. He talks about blackmailing the United States with a nuclear weapon. And I say, we're going to use that against Egypt if you don't. do what we want you to do. And Jonathan Pollard, Mark Levin, and these shills for Israel are pushing really hard to escalate this into a nuclear war because they know that's the only way they can push this thing over the edge.
Starting point is 01:59:57 And it'll be the end of life on Earth. That's right. At the end of life on Earth. That's what they want. Well, again, you've been on target with all this stuff and you've seen this trend coming for a very long time. Trendsjournal.com. That's where you can get the magazine, a weekly magazine, a wealthy magazine, a wealthy,

They see the common man is simple, unsophisticated, ordinary. But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God. That is what we have in common.
Starting point is 02:01:07 That is what they want to take away. Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation. They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us. It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to. hire.
