	The David Knight Show Yes, at the beginning of the program, I think 2023 is going to be the year of CBDC. And some very troubling things have come out about the financial system in general.
	But I want to begin with this article from Zero Hedge.
	These are the security features of American money.
	In 1739, Benjamin Franklin sought to tackle the issue of counterfeit money in America.
	And a visual capitalist site has broken down a graphic talking about all the different security measures...
	They're on a $100 bill.
	And so they've got all kinds of stuff.
	They've got watermarks.
	Oh, maybe Steve Pachinic was right, huh?
	Maybe they're quantum as well.
	Who knows? They've got a security threat.
	They've got 3D ribbons.
	Hey, you know, 3D chests, 3D ribbons.
	No, it's not. These are all things to stop counterfeiting.
	Of course, the simplest thing that they've had for the longest time is a serial number.
	But they also have something that's called a Uri-on constellation.
	It's a star-like grouping of yellow rings near the serial number.
	Only detectable by imaging software.
	Then they also have ink that changes color if you look at it from different angles because it's got little metallic flakes in it.
	They also have on the $100 bill a Liberty Bell image using that ink.
	They have micro-printing.
	That allows, again, for them to verify whether this bill is genuine or not, but you can't tell.
	It can't be seen by the naked eye.
	It can't be scanned by photocopiers.
	But it has USA 100 written invisibly in multiple places, only viewable by special equipment.
	They have something called intaglio printing.
	Rather than regular ink that is pressed onto a paper, intaglio printing uses magnetic ink and every different bill value has a unique magnetic signature.
	They've woven security threads and 3D ribbons throughout the paper.
	The paper itself is special.
	They have all these different things.
	Have you noticed something that is central about all this stuff?
	Does it protect you?
	Does it validate that this is a genuine bill, that it has real purchasing power?
	Of course not. This is all to protect the government from counterfeiters.
	But the biggest counterfeiter of all is the government.
	The government is creating fiat currency out of nothing.
	And yet they're moving people away from cash very rapidly.
	A Pew Research Center found that while it is dwindling, In its share of use among the population, 58% of people still use cash for some or all of their weekly purchases.
	That's down from 70% just four years ago.
	It's dropped from 70% to 58%.
	Or if you go back seven years ago, it was at 75% of people used cash, some on a weekly basis.
	Now it's down to 58%.
	So when we talk about security from our standpoint, We would typically think about, I don't know, the FDIC, for example.
	You know, we put this money in the bank and it's supposed to be insured.
	And yet we've had some very troubling statements made by the FDIC in meetings.
	Very, very long meeting, over three hours long.
	And again, this is the way they get away with stuff.
	I would go back and I would look at asymmetric warfare meetings from the military brass and stuff, and you just, you put to sleep before you get to anything of any value.
	But it's difficult. If you got through it, you could find some nuggets.
	And so, Wall Street silver.
	I guess suffered through this and pulled out a couple of cuts and listened to what they say about not alarming the public about how shaky our financial system is.
	It should be accessible when people need to know, but I don't think you have much hope of reaching a public that doesn't have a professional need to know.
	I completely agree with that.
	I almost think you'd scare the public if you put this out.
	Like, why are they telling me this?
	Should I be concerned about my bank?
	Like, my insurance company doesn't tell me what they're doing with my assets.
	They just assume they're gonna pay my claim.
	I think you've got to think of the unintended consequences of taking a public that has more full faith and confidence in the banking system than maybe people in this room do.
	We want them to have full faith and confidence in the banking system.
	They know the FDIC insurance is there.
	They know it works. They put their money in.
	They're going to get their money out. So there's a select crowd of people that are in the institutional side.
	And if they want to understand this, they're going to find a way to understand this.
	There's a bunch of law firms representing this room.
	There's a bunch of people that will charge them by the hour a lot of money to explain this all to them.
	And it's fine. I don't have a problem with that.
	And they all have huge staffs.
	But I would be careful about the unintended consequences of starting to blast too much of this out in the general public.
	Okay, now that was a meeting that happened in November.
	And you heard him say, the general public has more confidence in the banking system than the people in this room do.
	Who are the people in that room?
	Those are the people who are insuring the banks.
	If they knew what we know, we might start a panic.
	As a matter of fact, they talk about bank runs next.
	I wondered whether there are some market tests of whether you're being heard.
	And I think about TLAC. So, TLAC should...
	Spread should respond to good and bad news about the institutions, and it's really important.
	I mean, it's a little bit conflicted, right?
	I mean, it's important that people understand they can be bailed in, but you don't want a huge run on the institution.
	I mean, they're going to be.
	And it could be an early warning signal to the FDIC and the primary regulators when these things happen.
	And there may be some other...
	Prices, this is similar to what Jay was saying, in the market that you can tell whether people understand who's going to be protected, who isn't going to be protected.
	It would be, I think, an interesting study to look at the evolution of market prices in a situation like March of 2020, for example, and see whether people understood what might happen.
	So, you understand? He says, you don't want a big run on the institutions.
	And there's going to be.
	You heard him say that. And talking about people need to understand they might be bailed in.
	You understand? A bailout is when you get in trouble and they get you out of it.
	Bail in is when they create the problem and they suck you into it, right?
	They suck the money out of your account.
	out.
	That's what they're talking about.
	Zero Hedge has an article from Alistair McLeod about gold in 2023.
	He said, gold should be viewed from a monetary and an economic perspective.
	It is gold whose purchasing power is stable.
	That of fiat currencies is not stable.
	Analysts who see gold as an investment producing a return in national currencies have made a fundamental error.
	And that's what I've talked about over and over again.
	You know, we look at the fluctuating price of gold.
	Well, gold is, you know, pretty much standard.
	And he makes this case.
	He says, if you go back and you price commodities, or you price oil, or you price some other things, you price them in gold, it, you know, hasn't really changed that much.
	But with the dollar amounts, it's gone all over the place.
	He said, not only that, but when you look at what the central banks have, and you look at what the bank, the money that is there, just like you heard the FDIC talking about that, Well, you know, we may lose that.
	People don't realize that we may not be able to bail all that stuff out.
	He says, well, you know, a central bank's balance sheet, not just your retail account at a bank that is supposed to be insured, but the central bank's account is a liability.
	Under any definition, these are the characteristics of credit.
	And having to match debt obligations.
	Macro-economists, the people who tell you that, you know, you've got to balance things if you're talking about your own personal family's checkbook.
	But, you know, when you've got something that's really big, you don't have to worry about it, right?
	Keynesians and all the rest of the people, it's just this kind of idea, you know, from Looney Tunes that, you know, it's only the small rocks that are going to crush you.
	You know, the really big ones, they float.
	But macroeconomists have an explanation for why it is that they don't have an explanation for why it is that central banks continue to hoard massive quantities of gold in their reserves.
	Well, it's because they know there's nothing backing up any of this stuff.
	And at some point...
	The Looney Tunes character is going to realize he's been running on thin air for a long time.
	He's going to look down and see the ground and go straight down.
	It was illustrated this year when the Western alliance, led by America, emasculated the Russian central bank of its currency reserves with little more than a stroke of a pen.
	This is the other side of proof that the legal distinction between money and credit remains, despite any statist attempts to redefine currency as money.
	That can be reneged upon, further confirms that it's a credit status.
	And again, if they can do this to an entire nation, would Biden do it to you?
	Of course he would.
	Thank you.
	Thank you.

	We were all going to starve, so we had to prepare for that.
	No, nobody believed Paul Ehrlich then.
	Nobody. Well, I had a good friend who did.
	I've got to say that. That was something I always went back and forth with.
	But where are we today?
	You know, in 1970, they were imposing that first Earth Day.
	We've got to save the planet. We've got to ban all the cars.
	Well, we now have the World Economic Forum and Klaus Schwab saying, people have no right to To own their own cars.
	Quote, you can walk or you can share, but we'll own everything.
	You'll have nothing, especially a car.
	You have no right to anything, says this guy, Klaus Schwab.
	When's he going to get a punch in the nose?
	He's got a plan to enslave all of us, to impoverish all of us.
	Somebody needs to reset that plan.
	So, yeah, forget about the price of gas.
	This little man has demands.
	And says you have no rights.
	Who elected you?
	It is a vast conspiracy.
	And he is at the center of it.
	He is the front man right now.
	I would say even more so than Bill Gates.
	Klaus Schwab has declared that people have no right to own their own car.
	Instead, you can walk or share.
	That's what he said. Far too many people own their own vehicles.
	And this situation must be corrected.
	By pricing us out of the market.
	That is what this is all about.
	And by making things extremely rare.
	Right? Not only are electric vehicles going to be more expensive.
	Why? Because you got too many people chasing too few goods.
	They don't have the raw materials to make all of these cars.
	That's the bottleneck.
	There are automobile manufacturing plants to make electric vehicles and battery manufacturing plants that are springing up all over the place, but where are you going to get the cobalt?
	The cobalt is controlled by the Democratic Republic of Congo, which is not too democratic, actually.
	It's more like our Democrat Party.
	And they control cobalt.
	And they're looking at ways to extend their control.
	Who's number two in cobalt?
	Russia. Where are we going to get the minerals for all this stuff?
	Even if we didn't have issues with the political issues, there's not sufficient known resources to do all of this stuff.
	It's not just cobalt. It's other things like nickel and other things like that.
	We can build all the factories that we want, but we can't build these batteries in electric cars without the minerals that they don't know where they are.
	Lithium. Same story with lithium for the lithium batteries.
	And so that's going to price us out of the market.
	They're going to starve us for resources by their centrally controlled electric grid.
	And Biden is doing everything he can to make this happen as quickly as he can.
	Well, this next week or so, you're going to have thousands of private jets flying into Davos, Switzerland, for the World Economic Forum, annual forum that happens in January.
	They're out there telling you that you have no right to a car.
	They will have everything.
	You will have nothing. Are we really going to stand still for this?
	Are we really going to quietly go into this dark age?
	I just find it hard to believe.
	Where do we find the will and the public awareness to stand up to this?
	Yes, people are going to eventually realize what is happening as they're starting to wake up about the vaccines, but we could wait too long for this.
	Communal sharing of cars.
	Must become a part of the, quote, circular approach, unquote, in order to reduce global demand for precious metals and for fossil fuels.
	So now Davos is instructing their young global leaders that are embedded everywhere around the world.
	And again, that may include people like this guy, you know, Kevin McCarthy.
	Yeah, he's on their website.
	That's his picture, their own World Economic Forum website.
	That far too many people own private vehicles and they've got to be priced out of the market.
	To quote the World Economic Forum, the average car or van in England is driven just 4% of the time.
	This means that people in developed countries, including the United States, should not have the right to own their own car, comments a news punch.
	But going back to the World Economic Forum, they said car-sharing platforms such as GetAround and BlueSG, these would be car-sharing platforms in the UK, have already seized the opportunity to offer vehicles where you pay per hour used.
	That's what Eric Peters and I have been saying for the longest time.
	The automobile companies are fine with this because They like to, you know, it's more profitable for them to lease you a car than it is for them to sell you a car.
	And it's more profitable for them to rent it to you by the hour than it is for them to lease it to you.
	They just want to make sure that they're one or two, that the either one or two or three companies that are going to be allowed to have cars to lease out there.
	This is the way the government takes over individual automobiles.
	Because if they own all public transportation, they control you.
	They control your every movement.
	You're in prison. That's why mobility is so fundamental to all of this.
	But the most fundamental thing is speech.
	The end of private ownership is essential, they say, according to the World Economic Forum.
	Quote, a design process that focuses on fulfilling the underlying need instead of designing for product purchasing is fundamental to this transition.
	This is the mindset needed to redesign cities, to reduce private vehicles.
	Klaus Schwab is claiming current prices are severely underpriced.
	He said, first, leading democracies should agree to end the underpricing of fossil fuels.
	Except exactly the opposite is happening.
	They're adding all kinds of penalties and taxes and carbon taxes and all the rest of this stuff.
	He says the leading democracies of the G20 should collectively commit to phasing out the cost and tax breaks for the production and consumption of fossil fuels.
	That's exactly the opposite.
	They're giving tax breaks and incentives for the competing products, and they're adding penalties and fees to the fossil fuels.
	But he presents it exactly the opposite.
	It's a total lie.
	It's a total inversion of reality.
	He says, and so we need to phase out these subsidies for fossil fuels.
	And we need to cover, so we cover the cost of local air pollution and global warming.
	And so that we can help sustainable economies.
	We need to subsidize the green stuff.
	Oh, wait, you're already doing that.
	Thank you.
	Thank you.
	your day needs a little smoothing.
	Check out the Jazz Channel at APSRadio.com and the APS Radio app and leave the stress behind.
	As I mentioned at the top of the show, there are some very disturbing trends that are happening now in pharmaceutical that goes beyond the mRNA vaccines.
	The warp speed vaccines because they've got more mRNA shots.
	They're not stopping with a COVID shot.
	That was just the introduction.
	They're looking at setting up mRNA vaccines for all kinds of conditions.
	BioNTech has now dosed their first patient with a herpes vaccine that is mRNA.
	And do they really need to have more than one patient to get this approved?
	I'm sure they don't.
	They only need to have one patient, right?
	We don't need to run any tests. We don't need to take 10 or 12 years to do that anymore, right?
	As Fauci said, we're just going to do it from the inside with disruption and chaos, and we'll do it iteratively.
	Well, here we are. University of Pennsylvania and BioNTech established in 2018 a research collaboration.
	Aimed at developing novel mRNA vaccine candidates for the prevention and treatment of various infectious diseases.
	So they're advancing two mRNA vaccine candidates now for malaria and tuberculosis.
	They're already testing.
	And I'm sure, you know, after giving it to one patient, they'll wait a month or two and say, we're done.
	No more tests need to be done, right?
	But you're going to start seeing mRNA vaccines popping up for everything.
	Herpes, malaria, tuberculosis already.
	And we'll have to see what else they do.
	Now you have nanotech being brought into the mix as well.
	Not just genetic modification, but nanotechnology.
	Israelis are bringing miraculous cancer-killing tech to the marketplace.
	This is a story from WND. It's based on nanomachine breakthroughs of world-renowned scientist James Tour, who works at Rice University in Houston, but he is bringing this to market using an Israeli company.
	They're going to take this to market.
	So James Tour... Led a team that developed next-generation technology to target and to kill cancer cells with virtually no side effects.
	And if you believe that, I'll tell you a story about nuclear power that's going to be too cheap to meter.
	No side effects.
	It's perfect. It works perfectly.
	Tour, a professor of chemistry, is using the nanomachines, the marvelous motorized organic molecules, Created in a lab that won three chemists a Nobel Prize in 2016.
	He's using that to target cancerous cells.
	So here's how this supposedly works.
	These nanomachines identify a diseased cell.
	And they are equipped with a rotor and a stator.
	They are activated by ultraviolet light to drill through the cell membranes at a speed of up to 3 million times per second.
	The cancer cells then can be killed either by injecting chemical agents from the nanobots or by repeatedly piercing the cell to blast open tumorous membranes until the cell dies by necrosis.
	I'm sure that there's absolutely nothing that could go wrong with that scheme.
	These nanobots will be able to identify with 100% accuracy the cells that they are to destroy.
	And then they will inject poison only into those bad cells and or repeatedly drill them to death.
	And you don't have to worry about them doing that to any healthy cells.
	It's now closer to reality with the launch of an Israeli company called Nanorobotics.
	Nanorobotics is one of 16 companies that are working in nanotech.
	15 of the 16 are located in Israel.
	Nanorobotics is the only one that is based, however, on TOR's nanomachine technology.
	He said, when the three pioneers in the development of nanomachines were awarded the Nobel Prize in 2016, Tura was quoted in the New York Times story saying that the Nobel Prize would help to convince people that the nanomachines are not science fiction, but a gold mine.
	No, he didn't say that.
	He says, no one is making money on these right now, but that'll come.
	He predicted the first profitable use might be machines that open up cell membranes in the body to deliver drugs.
	He says it's going to be really quite extraordinary.
	I'm not sure if he's talking about his technology or the amount of money that he expects to make out of this.
	He explained that his nanodrills also can be programmed to target bacteria, not just cancer cells, but bacteria that have become resistant to drugs.

	They're turning the frogs clear.
	That's it. It's all those chemicals in the water.
	It's turning them clear.
	Scientists have long known about the glass frog, but did not understand how it made itself see-through.
	So, glass frog.
	Did you know about those?
	I didn't even know about the glass frog.
	The only frog I knew about was the velvet frog.
	Mel Torme, the guy who wrote Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire.
	That was his nickname. Anyway, it is able to pool blood in its body without being negatively affected by clots.
	Oh, is that why we're studying these frogs now?
	Blood clots?
	The findings could advance medical understanding of dangerous blood clotting, a common, serious condition that's been made much more common by the Trump shots.
	Perhaps they could use these glass frogs to see what happens.
	Maybe they could give them some mRNA injections.
	And maybe they could actually see the long strands of blood clots forming in these frogs and see if they can handle that.
	And if they can, maybe we can figure out what God did to counteract these mRNA shots in a glass frog.
	Hey, you know how we screwed up your DNA? Well, if you let us put some frog DNA in you, we think we can fix it.
	Yeah. We think. Well, the added bonus is that you could be the invisible man, right?
	You might be able to...
	Completely disappear from their surveillance cameras.
	You can actively see my heart failing right now.
	See, my skin is clear now, so you can see it seizing.
	That's great. You actually can see the heart in these things.
	You flip them over and look on the underside, and you can see the heart beating.
	In order to escape the attention of predators, the creature turns itself up to 61% transparent, disguising itself on the leaf.
	Isn't it amazing how intelligent these frogs are that they could design themselves that way?
	These people will never say that this is part of God's amazing design.
	This is just something that the frog was able to do.
	This is a National Geographic approach to nature.
	If you turn these frogs over, you can watch the heart beating by itself right there.
	They discovered that the creatures pool blood into their liver.
	They somehow... I wonder how they do that.
	How did they figure this out?
	How did they evolve this capability?
	This is the thing that I always loved when we did biology with you guys.
	You know, we look at the unique features of different animals because it was part of God's intelligent design.
	And it surely made biology a lot more interesting than what they reduced it to when I was in school, which was just a least common denominator of comparative skeletons.
	Anyway, they somehow pack most of the red blood cells into their liver so that they're not in the blood plasma.
	They're still circulating plasma, but they do it somehow without triggering a massive clot.
	Up to 89% of the animal's blood cells become packed together, almost doubling the size of the liver and allowing the frog to become transparent.
	At night, when the creature wants to become active again to hunt or to mate, it releases the red blood cells back into circulation, and the liver shrinks back into place.
	The ability to selectively pool and clot blood is the creature's superpower, says this article from the BBC. Um...
	The fool has said in his heart, there is no God.
	And that includes the people of the BBC. And most animals pooling blood together leads to clotting, which can be life-threatening, for example, leading to heart attacks in humans.
	We noticed that, BBC. We did.
	But maybe you haven't noticed.

	Meet the stars of show business and big business.
	Discover how life's winners live, love, and spend their fortunes.
	enter their dazzling world of luxury on privileged tours of the fantasy palaces they call home.
	You know, let's talk about the fantasy palaces that the Zelenskys call home and their fantasy shopping trips, the lifestyles of the rich and famous.
	You know, Zelensky's wife was in Paris and she was begging for more money and she got it.
	Over a billion dollars.
	You know, just to help with the extreme austerity that the people in Ukraine are suffering.
	And they are. At the hands of this corrupt dictator.
	And so, you know, while you're in Paris, I mean, you've got to pick up a few things, right?
	Fashion and stuff. So she goes to a store, and she spent €40,000 per hour at the store.
	The Zielinski's.
	Mrs. Zielinski.
	And she's in Paris, begging for more money.
	A €40,000 shopping spree.
	That's more than $40,000.
	Asking for money to make it through the winter.
	You know, she's got to get a new fur coat and stuff.
	Ukraine had obtained another $1.1 billion in emergency aid.
	Zelensky said Ukraine needed assistance worth around 800 million euros in the short term for its battered energy sector.
	His wife joined Ukrainians in asking for money in Paris for the past few days.
	Then a reliable store clerk, as the media is referring to this anonymous person, working at a very elite store, the Avenue Montaigne, I don't know how to pronounce it, I'm not, yeah, it's like French. They've got like a different word for everything, you know.
	And they love to throw in extra letters just to confuse you.
	You know, put a P on the end.
	And we want to say Renault and Pujot or whatever.
	It's like, it's Renault and Pujot.
	So, I'm not going to guess at the...
	Shouldn't have even tried.
	Anyway, they reported that Ms.
	Zelensky went on a Christmas shopping spree spending €40,000 per hour.
	But if we go back...
	And we look at when Zelensky was first elected.
	There was an interesting kind of quasi-investigation report from Reuters at the time.
	Let's go back to 2019.
	Zelensky is elected on a campaign of peace.
	Yeah, campaign of peace.
	And he got support all the way across Ukraine because Ukraine had been at war for five years since NATO and the Democrats had engineered a coup.
	They've been at war with the people who were trying to assert their right to self-governance, bombing civilians and that type of thing for five years, and people were sick of it, obviously.
	And so people in both Ukraine as well as the areas that were under attack by the Ukrainian government for daring to secede from them voted for the peace candidate Zelensky.
	And then as he takes office, Reuters has got some questions.
	The wife of the Ukrainian president got a penthouse bargain from a tycoon, they said.
	She got a great deal on a penthouse.
	And this is the way Reuters, in 2019, described political newcomer Zelensky.
	Zelensky, a comedian and TV star with no political experience, He won the April 21st presidential election after campaigning as someone who stands apart from the wealthy elite that dominates Ukrainian business and politics.
	He was going to be a man of the people.
	He was not going to be an elitist.
	He was going to bring peace to Ukraine that had been at war with itself for five years.
	But the deal over the apartment in the upmarket emperor complex on the Black Sea coast indicates the Zelensky family has benefited.
	From a transaction with a member of that same wealthy elite.
	Reuters was unable to establish why the apartment was sold at below market prices.
	Neither Zelensky nor his wife responded to requests for comment submitted via his campaign team and via companies that he owns.
	Zelensky's wife bought the three-room penthouse apartment in Ukraine's Crimean Peninsula for $163,000 in April 2013.
	Now, this is a luxury apartment.
	I know that this is below what the average price is in the U.S., but, you know, this is the price of their real estate.
	And if you look at it, it's a very nice penthouse.
	It is an apartment. It's not a full house.
	Six years earlier, she had bought this, April of 2013.
	According to the Declaration of Income and Assets filed this year by her husband and the Ukrainian Property Register.
	Now, the interesting thing about it was that's a fraction of Of what the listing prices were.
	Reuters went back and looked at what the price of real estate was at that time.
	And they said at that time, the price of an apartment in that emperor complex would range between $3,500 and $4,000 per square meter.
	Not square foot, square meter.
	And she paid $1,200.
	So normally it would go price per square meter, $3,500 to $4,000.
	She paid $1,200.
	A second listing in that same building, published about the time she bought the house, had a minimum price as $2,800 per square meter.
	She got it for $1,200.
	A Crimean real estate agent said these properties sold for between $2,500 and $3,000 per square meter, but could go up to $5,000.
	She got it for $1,200.
	So the person she bought it from is a former member of the Ukrainian parliament.
	His brother Sergei was a controlling shareholder and Ukrainian lender Brock Business Bank.
	It's funny because of the way they spell it.
	It's like Brock Business Bank, but they spell business as B-I-Z-N-E-S. I mean, these people spell like hillbillies, right?
	I could laugh at them like the French laugh at us pronouncing their words anyway.
	The unnamed former Brock Business Bank executives are under criminal investigation on suspicion that they embezzled money from the bank.
	And so this is the guy, you know, the bank that is under investigation for these types of things is the guy that cut her the deal.
	Truck driver Ron, thank you very much for the donation on RockFam.
	Merry Christmas. I'd like to see you playing the saxophone at the end of your show.
	I haven't played sax since I graduated from college.
	And so I don't even have one.
	And I would hate to think what they would cost today.
	I mean, the saxes that I had back at that time cost a couple of grand.
	So anyway, I don't know what they would cost today.
	Her apartment was listed for sale at a price of $790,000, more than four times what she bought it for, and higher than any of these other estimates here.
	And then, of course, last year, do you remember something called the Pandora Papers last year?
	October 2021, you had people in the UK. Now, of course, this is before anybody really paid much attention to Zelensky, before he became an international celebrity, speaking at every awards ceremony everywhere.
	And in October of 2021, remember, all this stuff with Russia started, what was it, end of February, beginning of March, if I remember correctly?
	I don't remember, but it was.
	So this is October, like four or five months earlier.
	And the Pandora Papers had come out, and it had shown Ukrainian politicians, featuring very prominently in these papers documenting corruption, but especially Zelensky.
	And so you had a lot of people in the UK, Ukrainian activists who are living in the UK, showed up to protest.
	They showed up at one of the places that Zelensky owned.
	They said the recent Pandora Papers revealed Zelensky was involved with money laundering of Kolomovsky's private bank funds that helped to buy him an apartment in London.
	This is not the Crimean one.
	This is now an apartment in London.
	They said, and there can be more of them that are still undeclared, said one of the protesters who organized the event.
	He added that corruption in Ukraine is reaching new heights with Zelensky, showing that he's not fighting it, but taking part in corrupt schemes.
	Now, this is a protest. This is about, you know, four to six months before all of this stuff, right?
	First, they loot you seven ways to Sunday, and then when you find out about it, you get angry about it, they take you to war, right?
	And then they make even more money while you lose everything, including perhaps your life.
	Let Zelensky take responsibility for his actions before the people of Ukraine.
	Let him return the money to Ukraine.
	He could sell his apartment or a few of them.
	He's got apartments all over the world.
	He must declare it, they said.
	The protesters in the UK, October 2021, held signs, Zelensky is corrupt.
	Sell your apartment.
	Return the money.
	Now his wife is...
	Going hat in hand, getting a billion dollars for the country.
	And yeah, they could use it because Zelensky's destroyed them.
	And that was the plan.
	Arrestovich, who worked for him, said in 2019, yeah, no, the war's not going to stop.
	He told the Ukrainian report.
	She's like, what? Surprised because they had campaigned on a platform of peace.
	No, the war's not going to stop. In three years, we'll be at war with Russia, 2022.
	And she goes, that's horrible.
	He goes, no, it's good. He says, the entire country will be destroyed, but we'll get into NATO. That's how corrupt they are.
	Reports reveal Zelensky-affiliated businesses used offshore schemes in 2012 to 2019 to dodge paying taxes in Ukraine.
	Now they don't have to do that anymore, right?
	That was just the build-up period before he became president.
	Now that he's president, he doesn't have to put it offshore.
	He can hide all of his stolen money there in Ukraine.
	Are we going to audit any of the over $100 billion we're going to send to him in just the first nine months of this disaster?
	No. No.
	The Pentagon says we can't do that.
	The State Department says we can't do that.
	We don't know where the weapons went.
	We don't know where the money went.
	Well, look at the Pandora Papers, and you can pretty much guess where the money's going.
	Into his pockets. Offshore companies connected to Zelensky and his business partners now own three properties in London worth $7.5 million, a $2.1 million apartment in an Edwardian mansion in Regent's Park, another $3 million flat in nearby Baker Street opposite the Sherlock Holmes Museum.
	I've been there.
	Not to his apartment, to the museum.
	Anyway, Ukraine features prominently in the Pandora Papers investigation with almost 40 Ukrainians named among politicians and businessmen from dozens of countries who used offshore companies for questionable deals and property acquisitions.
	So that was October of last year.
	September this year, just a couple months ago, you may remember this, there was a big brouhaha in the, uh, Media, because there were accusations that Zelensky had rented his luxury villa in Italy.
	Now, we talked about Crimea, London.
	Now, this is the one in Italy.
	Who knows how many he's got, right?
	The people, the protesters in Ukraine said he's got them stashed all over the place.
	Well, the one that he had in Italy, a luxury property, 15 rooms and a pool, it rented for 50,000 euros.
	Now, that wasn't what they had a problem with in the press.
	You know what they had a problem with in the press?
	Not the fact that this guy has, you know, where did he get all this money?
	I mean, it's like Obama. Obama's a community organizer.
	Where did he get, how did he become somebody's, you know, nearly a billion dollars net worth?
	How did Zelensky get all this money?
	Why is his name all over the Pandora Papers?
	And he's like, no, none of that. He rented it to the Russians.
	And they said, well, they weren't Russians.
	And other people said, but we heard them speaking Russian and Yeah, that was what it was about.
	And oh, by the way, at the time, as I pointed out, this Zelensky villa that they were concerned that they'd rented it to Russians, it was owned by a shell corporation that was based out of another country that was owned by his wife.
	Yeah, why would he do that?
	Unless he's trying to hide stuff, right?
	Zelensky's, here's another one.
	Zelensky's parents. I bought an $8 million property in Israel and were able to obtain Israeli citizenship, evidently for a price, right?
	$8 million villa in Israel.
	There's another one. And two Lexus bulletproof cars.
	I mean, if you're going to get a bulletproof car, you don't want to get an economy model, right?
	It's a small town where Jewish rich people from Eastern Europe gather.
	Rishpen, Israel.
	And so his parents are there.
	I think his dad was formerly an actor who didn't have a lot of money, but they're making sure that the Ukrainians don't have a lot of money.
	So these guys, you know, this is the lifestyle of the rich and famous.
	Multi-million dollar villas here, there, and everywhere.
	You cover it up with offshore corporations, with shell corporations outside the country, shell corporations that are in the name of your wife.
	But there's some things they don't have to cover up.
	For instance, you can have the war party.
	The war party in Washington, D.C. And what I mean by that is the defense contractors, the military-industrial complex, the war party.
	Four major defense contractors sue a party for the Zelenskys.
	And the Ukrainians actually put their names on the invitations as the sponsors.
	And they posed for pictures with Milley, General Milley, and Chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Mark Milley in attendance.
	The invitation said the event was supported by Northrop Grumman, Raytheon, the Employer of Austin?
	Austin had been at Raytheon so long they had to go back and change the rules to bring him back into the government as Secretary of Defense?
	I mean, are we a collapsing empire or what?
	There's absolutely no way that you can look at what's happening right now and not see that America is under economic, political, societal collapse in every way.
	Moral collapse, financial collapse, collapse of borders, rampant corruption in your face.
	So they reported that this has happened on Saturday.
	The celebration was hosted by the Ukrainian Embassy.
	It took place in downtown D.C. at the Ronald Reagan Building, less than a mile from the White House, with the chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff in attendance, sponsored by the War Party.
	It's a war Christmas party, isn't it?
	So this person who is a think tank expert said the explicit sponsorship Indicates how intimate major military contractors have become with Ukraine and how much they stand to gain from this war.
	Why is it that we're surprised when the pharmaceutical industry makes tens of billions of dollars killing people?
	You had, I think it was nine new billionaires created out of Trump's warp speed program.
	The military-industrial complex have been making tens of billions of dollars killing people, starting unnecessary wars.
	Not just to defend this country.
	Defending this country would be legitimate, but that's not how they're using the military-industrial complex.
	That's not why they've got wars like this one.
	It's not to defend us.
	It's not to defend the lives of Ukrainians.
	They're using the Ukrainians.
	The military-industrial complex in America...
	I saw somebody yesterday.
	In a car, driving along.
	Had the whole back of the car covered up.
	Pray for Ukraine.
	It's like, yeah. What are you going to pray?
	That God removes Zelensky and ends this war?
	Is that what you're going to be praying for?
	Are you going to pray for victory or whatever?
	What are you going to pray for?
	The invitation is a clear expression of how the war in Ukraine has been good for business.
	As Ukraine fights a defensive war, they said, Against Russia's brutal invasion.
	Ukrainians in Washington have been pushing for the U.S. to send Ukraine more weapons.
	So far, Biden's administration has committed a substantial $20 billion of military assistance since February.
	And they're going to ramp it up to over $100 billion.
	And as I said, if you look, I sort of look at that, you know, $100 billion, and we're talking about only nine months, except for 2021.
	That's, if you take that, if that's...
	You know, $100 billion for three quarters?
	You're going to wind up giving them about a little bit more than their gross domestic product.
	I don't know what they're going to give them in the next quarter.
	But their gross domestic product was $150 billion for about five years before 2021.
	And then all of a sudden, in 2021, it jumped up to $200 billion.
	And I said, yeah, that's interesting.
	Why didn't we hear about the economic miracle?
	I mean, there had to have been some kind of an economic miracle in 2021.
	Remember, none of this stuff happened until, you know, the end of February or March or whenever it was.
	I mean, you're still three months into, it was the first quarter of 2022 when this stuff kicked off.
	So why, in the year before that happened, did you see Ukraine's gross domestic product jump by a third?
	It's an economic miracle, isn't it?
	Why isn't everybody talking about that?
	We all need to be doing what Ukraine was doing.
	Jumping by a third. Well, you know, they were front-loading this, buying off all the politicians or whatever they need to betray their people and to use them as cannon fodder.
	The Ukrainian embassy was not shy about publicizing the event.
	On their Facebook page, they posted photos from the event, including one of Millie.
	What a joke that guy is.
	Using free speech to free minds.
	Music.
	It's the David Knight Show.
	The Christopher Columbus statues are reported.
	They boxed it up a few years ago up in South Philly.
	We have a very large Italian population.
	And it's now been unboxed.
	And there's videos of people going wild and cheering.
	A plywood box that covered a statue of Christopher Columbus in South Philadelphia for more than two years has now been removed following a ruling in Commonwealth Court.
	The ruling came down late last week and the box was removed late Sunday night.
	The court ruling also reversed a previous order and will allow for a clear structure to be built around the statue.
	You now have to protect symbols of our history and heritage and culture.
	You now have to protect them from vandalism.
	That's the world that we live in.
	But the mayor, Jim Kinney, wanted the statue completely removed, saying it was a matter of public safety.
	I think it'd be better if you remove the BLM and Antifa people and leave the statue there.
	I think we would be much better off with the statues than with these radical extremist Marxists who are determined...
	To tear down our society.
	In June of 2020, the statue became the point of contention between groups who wanted to defend it from vandalism amid ongoing social unrest and other groups who saw the statue as a symbol of hate.
	No, it's just a symbol of what they hate.
	The confrontation between the opposing sides resulted in violence Well, again, the statue has been there for a very long time.
	What has changed...
	Is that we give place to BLM and Antifa.
	And it appears that they have taken charge of West Point as well.
	The West Point superintendent just canceled an offensive Abe Lincoln mural.
	This is what is happening in the U.S. Military Academy West Point.
	This is written by John Hughes, who is a graduate of West Point.
	And he's very upset about what the current superintendent, that's the head guy there, Stephen Galland, what he is doing to alter and remove history.
	First it was Robert E. Lee.
	Now it is Abraham Lincoln because it's about erasing heritage.
	It's about erasing history, culture.
	It is not about racism.
	It's about their racism and about their Marxism because that's what Marxists always do.
	They erase religion, culture, heritage, history.
	They must level everything so they can do their reset with themselves in charge.
	So I wonder if anybody will ever remember this Stephen Gland, certainly anything positive.
	That's what these people do. They destroy, they don't build.
	Robert E. Lee probably did more for the Code of Honor at West Point than anybody else.
	He was, as a student, he never got a demerit in a system that was designed to catch people and give them demerits.
	His classmates called him the Marble Man because when it came to things like that, he was a person of such high character.
	He became...
	A superintendent at West Point is one of the reasons why he was so successful as a general in the Civil War because he had taught the people that he was fighting and he knew them personally.
	So he's playing a game of chess with these guys and he understands how they think.
	He was able to predict how they were going to react.
	And there were quotes all over the place about what Robert E. Lee said about honor.
	He was highly sought after, north and south.
	You know, they wanted him to lead the Union Army at the beginning of the war.
	But he saw his allegiance, first of all, to his state and not to the federal government.
	But even after the war, They were constantly coming after him, wanting him to endorse products and things like that.
	He refused to do that.
	He was not going to endorse products.
	Grant, on the other hand, signing away everything.
	But Lee would not do that.
	So the Superintendent West Point said, during the holiday break, we will begin a multi-phased process in accordance with the Department of Defense directives to remove, rename, and modify assets and real property at the U.S. Military Academy West Point.
	Anything that commemorates or memorializes the Confederacy or those who voluntarily served in the Confederacy.
	And so he says, we will also be removing the bronze mural at the main entrance of Bartlett Hall.
	This was created by a sculptor.
	It's a three-panel bronze mural dedicated in 1965.
	In September of this year, the public affairs spokesperson for the U.S. Military Academy seemed to defend it, telling ABC News that the artist, quote, wanted to create art that depicted historical incidents or persons that symbolized the principal events of the time, thereby both documenting and Both tragedy and triumph in our nation's history.
	See, they don't want a nation.
	They don't want our history.
	It has symbols on it, like the Tree of Life, that depict how our nation has flourished despite its tragedies.
	The obscure but recently noticed KKK image on the mural was meant to show racism within the tapestry of history.
	So because somebody portrays this big mural, and they've got something there that they were fighting against, and nobody even noticed it.
	That's what this guy who went to West Point, he said to most of the people there, never noticed that.
	Or the names or images of some specific Confederate generals, such as Lee, Stuart, Jackson, and Brooke.
	But it did not direct that the entire mural be removed when they talked about that at that point in time.
	So the Department of Defense didn't want the entire mural removed, but the superintendent did.
	He says the mural was well known to cadets.
	The tiny Confederate and KKK references on it were not, however, well known.
	The central large figure of President Abraham Lincoln, though, had a well-worn, sculpted head because cadets like myself used to rub the Lincoln head on the way to classes for luck.
	West Point has chosen to remove the entire mural that had references to the Union victory, to President Lincoln, to World War II, to Korea, because they're offensive.
	The revisionist targeting appears to have already spread beyond the Confederacy to key white figures in American history, even Union ones.
	And of course, we've already seen this.
	When they first started coming after Confederate statues, as he points out, quickly they started vandalizing the Statues and memorials to Grant, to Lincoln, to Roosevelt, to Wilson, to World War I memorials, and other non-Confederate, because this is about memory-holing history.
	This is a Marxist tactic.
	This is not about the Confederacy.
	They don't want to have the history or the heritage of the Confederacy.
	They want to create it in their own image, but they want to destroy all American history.
	Superintendent Galland also continues, he says, the recent trend of West Point superintendents to ignore any Freedom of Information Act requests and to deny that there is any critical race theory indoctrination at West Point.
	Last month, he quickly gave five cadets refusing the COVID vaccine mandate, general officer memorandums of reprimand, Despite knowing that very soon the mandate would likely be and was voted to be ended by Congress.
	But of course, that also was a symbolic vote.
	As Davis Yance pointed out, I replayed both the initial interview that I had with him and then the one where he came back after the NDAA was passed.
	We talked about that. It doesn't change anything.
	Anybody who is already in process is going to continue in process.
	And I think at this point in time, with the mandates having been going on for...
	What, 15 months now?
	September of last year? Everybody is in one process or the other.
	They've taken the vaccine or you're in the appeals process or you've been kicked out.
	They're not doing anything to help the people who've been kicked out.
	They're not doing anything to reinstate the benefits of the people who've been kicked out of the military.
	And this NDAA is a virtue-signaling head fake by Republicans.
	It won't do anything to help anybody.
	The guy who wrote this, by the way, is a physician, M.D., A West Point graduate, a veteran of Iraq and Afghanistan, and he, like a lot of other West Point graduates, are saying, what is going on?
	Well, we know what's going on.
	It is a completely politicized Pentagon.
	Pop, pop, pop, pop!
	Pop, pop, pop!

	A real concern about this stuff, and that is depopulation.
	One of the first medical pushbacks against this stuff was by Dr.
	Michael Yadin, who had been a VP at Pfizer.
	And the first thing he said, before anybody started talking about myocarditis and heart attacks and blood clots and all the rest of this stuff, the first thing he said was, this is going to sterilize people.
	Why did he say that?
	Well, as I said before, this is an article that I had not seen before.
	Breaking-News.ca out of Canada.
	November of 2021.
	And what Breaking News Canada found was a connection between a veterinarian vaccine called Spavac.
	Yeah, when I saw this, I thought, is this a joke?
	Spavac. I guess they could have one for males.
	They could call it a nano-neuter or something, you know, for the nanoparticles.
	Neuter your pet with nanoparticles, or you can spay your pet with this stuff.
	Well, this is not for pets yet.
	This is, they say, for wildlife, and the subtitle of this company, and it's a real company.
	This is real information. The subtitle that they have, they're, you know, SPAVAC for Wildlife Incorporated.
	It says, contraceptive vaccines for humane population control.
	Well, you get the real idea if you just take off the E, off of humane.
	Contraceptive vaccines for human population control.
	They are doing this under experimental use.
	They have an emergency use authorization for animals to do this.
	SPAVAC does.
	But the interesting thing about this, when you look at their website, and you can look at it yourself, spavac.com, they talk about the need for this, and they say they immediately start by attacking humans.
	This is why I say this is a program for human population control, not humane population control.
	Because they immediately start talking about humans.
	And you know, when I played Ellen Degenerate, you know, saying, oh, Mother Earth is in charge and, you know, all this Gaia theory and everything, humans were a virus.
	Considered to be a virus by these people who want to reduce population.
	This has been at the heart of the climate change thing.
	Paul Ehrlich is still selling that lie to people, the population bomb and all the rest of the stuff.
	And so the first thing they say when they talk about the importance of their product is, Here's why you need SPAVAC. Humans have had a profound impact on the Earth's ecosystem.
	Well, I thought this was about controlling harmful wildlife.
	No. Humans are bad.
	We are the virus.
	And so they say, you know, this is about population control of wildlife.
	They go on to say...
	The Anthropocene is proposed as the current epoch, which is viewed as the period during which human activity has been dominant influence on climate and the environment.
	Many wildlife species, even if they are considered endangered, are in overabundance in an ever-shrinking habitat and the habitat ranges that they occupy.
	Spavac is an effective tool to manage overpopulation.
	Well, it sounds to me like the humans are the problem.
	You know, we're crowding them into these, you know, even though they're considered to be endangered species, they're still overcrowded, and they're shrinking habitat.
	Who's shrinking their habitat?
	Those evil anthropoid things, you know, humans, mankind.
	They go on to say, overabundant species, even native ones, can reduce biodiversity by monopolizing resources, spreading infectious diseases, changing species composition, or relative abundance.
	That sounds still like humans.
	They will tell you that we're the ones who are spreading diseases.
	We're the ones who are changing species composition.
	As a matter of fact, we're doing it by genetic engineering in many cases.
	So, if mankind is the problem, And the Anthropocene is the problem.
	We've got to change that, right?
	I mean, that'd be the logical conclusion with all of this stuff.
	But they talk about their cases, and they focus on deer and wild horses, which don't really seem to be that big of a problem.
	You know, they have wild horses that the Bureau of Land Management says that they can't control, and so they want to reduce that, but not nearly as much as the Paul Ehrlichs and the Georgia Guidestone people want to reduce the human population.
	They only want to reduce the wild horse population by about a third, whereas they want the human population to be about one-sixteenth of what it is.
	Seems to me like the problem is humans, don't you think, from these people's perspective?
	So they say, what is SPAVAC? SPAVAC, according to SPAVAC, is an immunocontraceptive vaccine that uses the PZP antigen in a patented liposomal delivery system to create an immune response.
	We'll unpack all that for you.
	The immune system of the inoculated animal, and of course this is focused specifically on mammals.
	Mammals. Important to understand.
	Only on mammals. The immune system of the inoculated animal or mammal will produce antibodies to ZP. These antibodies competitively bind to the ZP surface matrix, thus blocking sperm from being able to bind and therefore preventing fertilization.
	So, they refer to it as PZP because they get it from pigs.
	Porcine. And the way this thing operates, the glycoprotein, which is found wrapped around all the eggs of mammals, including humans.
	One of these glycoproteins...
	ZP3 is a critical receptor protein for sperm and therefore key to fertilization of the egg.
	The porcine ZP vaccine is derived from pig ovaries and therefore when referring to this antigen using the vaccine we call it PZP. And so the bottom line is that they are going to focus on the eggs.
	Where are the eggs located? You know, the ovaries.
	Where does the vaccine accumulate?
	In the ovaries. But there's a lot more coincidence to this than that.
	If you, and this is what Breaking News candidate did, and this is why I think it's important.
	As I pointed out, this vaccine from Spavac, It requires being kept cold at minus 40 degrees centigrade, you know, like these other, you know, Trump shots.
	And it also has to be given as two shots a month apart.
	Wow! Just like the Trump shots.
	And those are two of the things that I really question.
	It's like, we've never seen this before.
	And any vaccine that has to be kept at these super cold temperatures and you get two shots one month apart?
	And it was very important for the CDC to keep track of that.
	You know, they wanted that reported by all the state health organizations, by all the individuals who are going to be out there vaccinating people.
	You tell us when you give them that first shot.
	We want to make sure they get that second one a month later and type it.
	We'd never seen that before.
	And that always was a red flag to me.
	This is highly unusual.
	But we had seen it before with SPAVAC. A vaccine designed to sterilize mammals.
	In addition, they talk about the fact that this vaccine does not stay at the injection site, but it accumulates in the ovaries, because that's the purpose of it.
	It wants to change these proteins, And, you know, bind with these things, and, you know, it's an antigen there that gets the immune system to make sure that it's going to block sperm from getting into the egg.
	It gets even deeper.
	Pfizer actually partnered with this company for the delivery mechanism of this thing.
	And they used the same technology, the same liposome technology.
	And then we find that, you know, you recall, and of course they point this out, and they had a link in the article at breaking-news.canada, that link in the article to a report that was set up to debunk, because, you know, a lot of people were talking about it.
	Steve Kirsch talked about it.
	Michael Yadin was the first one to talk about it.
	And the first thing, as I said, that Michael Yadin had a problem with, he said, I think this is designed to sterilize people.
	Yeah. And so Steve Kirsch talked about how it was accumulating in the ovaries.
	And so they linked to an article that was supposedly debunking Steve Kirsch.
	And they said, pay attention to the second table.
	And when you look at the tables in this debunk article, they drew big red squares around the table.
	This came out of the Pfizer report where the people said, hey, look, this concentrated in the ovaries.
	And so in the Pfizer report, they had a list, you know, different rows where all the different places in the body, all these different organs and locations where this stuff could accumulate.
	And then as you go across, they got the column headings as you go across, talking about concentrations, first of all, and then the percentage of the vaccine that was found in those locations.
	So for each location, they would look at it over a period of time.
	You know, what happens immediately after injection?
	What happens, you know, 6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, that type of thing.
	And they would show what was happening with the concentration.
	Then they had another section that said at those periods of time, you know, 6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, that type of stuff, that.
	What was the percentage of the vaccine that went to these different places?
	And so what they did was they drew a square around the concentration thing in red and said, see, it's not true.
	Most of the vaccine does not go to the ovaries.
	However, if you look at what they said was, don't pay attention to that.
	Pay attention to the first stuff, which is showing the concentration of where it goes.
	And the place it had the highest concentration was the spleen, which is not surprising since the spleen is going to be filtering the blood, right?
	And so it had, forget about the units here, it had 23.4 in terms of the concentration of the vaccine was 23.4 in the spleen.
	Number two, in terms of concentration, was the ovaries.
	12.3. The spleen makes sense because it's filtering the blood.
	But then it goes 12.3 to the ovaries.
	And you look at all the other categories of locations and organs in the body where it could go.
	And the next one, from 12.3, was 1.5, and that was the small intestine.
	Every other location in the body was less than one.
	So spleen, which is filtering the blood, gets 23.5 concentration.
	Ovaries gets 12.3.
	Small intestines gets 1.5.
	And everything else, less than 1.
	Many of them, much less than 1.
	So Pfizer's delivery system was designed by the people who set up a vaccine to sterilize mammals.
	Do you find that interesting? I find that interesting.
	Just a coincidence, I'm sure.
	So, they said, has it been tested?
	Well, a single dose of Spavac has been demonstrated to have long-lasting contraception.
	And here's what they found.
	They said that when they did it with a deer, that three single-dose deer trials, Demonstrated fertility control.
	Deer are a problem, they said, because, you know, cars hit them and they're destructive to vegetation.
	They can transmit disease and so forth.
	So we got to control their population.
	They said 41 free-ranging fallow deer were vaccinated with a single injection.
	None of them became pregnant for three years.
	They did it with another control group.
	Five captive white-tailed deer were given a single injection of spay vac.
	None of them became pregnant during the next three years of the study compared to the controlled deer population where 100% of them got pregnant.
	Well, isn't that interesting?
	And yet they have to keep doing this over and over again.
	So again, going back to the technology, the liposome is the nanotechnology that is a part of this.
	They call their thing Vaximax.
	It is a patented vaccine delivery formulation that provides controlled, prolonged exposure of antigens plus adjuvant to the immune system.
	It has a no-release delivery system utilizing highly engineered liposomes, which mitigates the propensity for antigens to break down, thereby extending the stimulation of the immune response.
	In other words, what they're doing is they've got a delivery system That means that it's not going to, you know, the immune system is not going to get to it until it gets to where it wants to go.
	And then at that point, it gets released by those membranes that are around the egg and does its thing.
	Spavac. Maybe that's what we should instead of the Trump shot, the genetic code injection.
	Now we got another aspect of it.
	The Spavak.
	The Common Man.
	The Spavak.
	They created common core to dumb down our children.
	They created common past to track and control us.
	Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing.
	And the communist future.
	They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary.
	But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God.
	That is what we have in common.
	That is what they want to take away.
	Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation.
	They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us.
	It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide.

	Americans are having less children now than in decades.
	slides.
	Just over half of women...
	Under the age of 45 are having babies in the U.S. And this has fallen dramatically.
	They said from 2002 to 2019, the share of women aged 15 to 45 with at least one child dropped from 2002 to 2019, dropped from 60% to 52%.
	Now they talk about the fact that, you know, they're delaying kids until they're older, they're focused more on career.
	This is a story coming from the Daily Mail, so they're not going to talk about how...
	The objectives of people in terms of LGBT and how that is distracting people, getting them to focus on themselves to the extent that they don't want to have a heterosexual relationship, they don't want to have kids, they just want to, like Sam Britton, they just want to dress up and wear high heels or whatever.
	But a lot of this is part of the career that's been sold to women.
	Women have been told that they do not want to Have kids because that's not fulfilling to be a mother.
	And nothing could really be further from the truth.
	One of the funny things is people have gone in and looked at the amount of anti-depression drugs people utilize.
	And in women, they basically track as the number of pregnancies goes down, the amount of Zoloft and things middle-aged women need goes through the roof.
	Yeah. Oh, yeah.
	Well, I've got a story about that, actually.
	That was where I was going next before I say that, you know, Daily Mail has also got a story about how one out of every four Americans are skipping to have kids, and they said it's over the fear of climate change.
	I think that is really virtue signaling.
	You know, oh, I care so much about the planet that I don't want to have kids.
	Yeah, it has nothing to do that you're a selfish child still yourself.
	That's right. Yeah, they care about themselves.
	But, you know, there's also a study that just came out, Travis, what you were talking about.
	The amount, you know...
	How the use of antidepressants is inversely proportional to the number of kids that you've got, type of thing, right?
	Your family. This is a study that says the best medicine for curing depression and anxiety, kindness to others.
	I've always depended on the kindness of strangers.
	Blank Dubois. No, this is about really doing nice things for people.
	If you're worried about the climate and you're freaking out, you truly are afraid of what is going on, you've got anxiety about a lot of other stuff.
	If you're depressed, well, the best thing that you could do is to actually help other people.
	This is coming out of Ohio State University.
	And they said a little bit of kindness shown towards others can help beat feelings of depression and anxiety.
	Scientists said that performing good deeds leads to notable mental health improvements not seen in two other therapeutic techniques They're commonly used to treat the condition.
	So they have two techniques besides doping people up.
	That's what you were talking about.
	In this particular one, they were trying non-pharmaceutical means to get people out of depression.
	That stuff is, as we've talked about many times, very, very dangerous.
	The SSRIs and other things like that, we call them murder-suicide pills.
	If you vary the dosage of that too much...
	It triggers reactions to people of all ages.
	That's why you see these people who many times will kill others and kill themselves, even killing friends, families, children, and then killing themselves, and they don't even know what they're doing.
	I talked to a person several years ago.
	She had a site, I think it's called SSRIstories.net.
	And she just had a long list of these events that people blame on the gun.
	No, it's actually the serotonin reuptake inhibitors that they're putting out there for people.
	And if you vary that, it does all kinds of crazy stuff to you.
	She had one story of a guy who showed up at his...
	In his classroom with a rifle, and he was pointing the rifle at the classroom and then pointing the rifle at himself in the back of the classroom.
	They eventually were able to get that rifle away from him, take him to a hospital because he clearly was not in his right mind.
	And when he recovered from it, he told them what happened.
	Yeah, just, you know, this medicine was doing crazy stuff to me.
	I didn't like it, so I just stopped taking it.
	Well, you know, boom. That's the type of thing that happened.
	But in this particular study, they didn't have anybody that was on pharmaceuticals.
	These were non-pharmaceutical treatments for depression and other things.
	They said kindness towards others was the only one of these three approaches that they studied that resulted in people, subjects, feeling more connected with other people.
	They said social connection is one of the ingredients of life that is most strongly associated with well-being.
	And, of course, this is why we have the satanic agenda of breaking up families, of not having children, the satanic government and corporation working together.
	They want to isolate us.
	They want to tether us to this digital world, to this fiat universe.
	The story also shows that acts of kindness are helpful for fighting depression and anxiety because when we help others, it takes our minds off of the negative thoughts that otherwise would be consuming our attention.
	They said, we often think that people with depression have enough to deal with, so we don't want to burden them by asking them to help other people.
	These results run counter to that.
	Doing nice things for people and focusing on the needs of others may actually help people with depression and anxiety to feel better about themselves.
	Yeah, it's better to give than to receive.
	You know, and we can all have, if we've done that, we all know that that is true.
	The project included 122 people that had moderate to severe symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress.
	So they separated them into three groups.
	Two of the cohorts were assigned to techniques that are often used for cognitive behavioral therapy for depression.
	So one group, they had them planning social activities.
	Another group, they had them doing self-appraisal, cognitive reappraisal.
	So the social activities group was told to plan social get-togethers for two days a week.
	Well, let's just mix it up.
	Let's have mixers with people, and I'll just interact with people, and I'll feel better, right?
	The cognitive reappraisal group kept records for at least two days per week, intended to help them identify and change negative thought patterns in a way that could lower both depression and anxiety.
	Subjects assigned to the third group, on the other hand, were instructed to perform three acts of kindness daily for two days out of the week.
	So you've got one group that gets together with people.
	Another group that does a self-assessment and reappraisal.
	How do I feel this way?
	Why do I feel this way? That type of thing.
	And the third group, you just say, do three acts of kindness daily, two days out of the week.
	Right? About 28% of the time.
	The act of kindness was defined as a big or small act That benefits others and makes other people happy.
	Typically at some cost to you in terms of time or resources.
	Some reported acts of kindness among participants included baking cookies for friends, offering to give a friend a ride, leaving sticky notes for roommates with encouraging words.
	It could be something that's really simple, right?
	And so if you pursue making other people happy, Maybe you will find it yourself.
	Maybe the founders were on to something when they talked about the pursuit of happiness.
	Of course, they were talking about a state of virtue and everything.
	But still, I looked at this and I thought, okay, we get happy, get over their depression and their fear, their anxiety, by doing things to make other people happy.
	It's kind of like, I've said many times, liberty is something that you can't have unless you give it to other people also.
	If that is your attitude, And that really is true.
	I mean, if you're going to say, well, I think there ought to be a law about this because I don't like it, you know, but if you try to shut down speech that you don't like, for example, you're going to find that your own speech is going to be censored because you're always going to find somebody who doesn't like what you're doing.
	And so you have to have that attitude that I'm going to allow other people to have this liberty.
	We also found that subjects across all the groups showed an increase in life satisfaction and a drop in depression and anxiety symptoms after the 10-week study.
	So all three of these things happened, but the difference was that the people who were doing acts of kindness Still showed a big advantage over other social activities and over cognitive reappraisal.
	This is why they want to isolate us.
	They know that we are designed by God to help other people.
	And that's part of the family dynamic, that they are working so hard to take it away.
	It's not just enough to be around other people.
	It's not just enough to do self-examination.
	Those are good.
	Those are helpful.
	But it's the human element in doing things for other people.

	Well, the New York Times is asking, can you find eggs here or there?
	Can you find them anywhere? This is Dr.
	Seuss or something. Forget about green eggs.
	You can't get any kind of eggs.
	And so the New York Times goes to Whole Foods in Manhattan to shop, of course.
	A grocery staple that for decades has been relatively cheap and reliable has now become elusive, even lavishly priced commodity.
	At Whole Foods, they said, the shelves were empty for the cheapest eggs that were $3.39 for a carton of 12.
	What remained were more expensive options like organic, cage-free eggs for more than $7 a dozen.
	Even then, customers were limited to two egg cartons, according to a sign on the refrigerator door.
	Due to a nationwide shortage of eggs.
	And, of course, we saw this. I went with Karen earlier in the week to the grocery store.
	And where the eggs are, they had signs that said, I think it was HPAI. Due to, you know, HPAI. And I had to look that up.
	I think it was HP. It was something like high-potency avian influenza.
	I knew the AI was avian influenza, bird flu, whatever.
	But that's all they said.
	Well, there's a lot more to it than that, quite frankly.
	That is a factor. It's one of many different factors.
	New York Times says since the outbreak was detected last February, more than 57 million birds and hundreds of commercial and backyard flocks have been affected by it.
	Flocks have been culled to prevent the virus from spreading.
	And so you've seen depopulation of more than 44 million laying hens in the U.S. since the outbreak, according to the Agricultural Department.
	And the President and Chief Executive of the American Egg Board says, while bird flu has played a role, increasing costs of fuel, feed, and packaging have also contributed.
	To pricier and scarcer eggs.
	Is avian flu a factor?
	Yes, she said.
	Is it the only factor?
	No. And I would argue that it's not even the biggest factor of where these prices are right now.
	There's an excellent video that came out of the UK. She's saying the same thing in the UK. Listen to what a farmer who was involved in the egg business had to say.
	Better get this one out there before the supermarkets put their story across and cancel everyone else out.
	So when you go into a supermarket now, you might see that there is a bit of an egg shortage.
	So not many eggs on the shelf to buy, not free-range, not organic, nothing.
	So you're struggling to find eggs.
	Supermarkets are going to tell you this is because of avian flu.
	Which to be fair, there has been a lot of cases of avian flu.
	But do you want to know the real reason why there's an egg shortage?
	It's because the supermarkets won't pay the farmers for the eggs.
	So the supermarkets have upped their price for you, the consumer.
	But they haven't filtered that price increase down to us, the farmers.
	So our cost of producing these eggs has skyrocketed.
	Feed, electric, the price of new birds, that's gone up.
	But our price of eggs has stayed the same.
	So we physically can't afford to produce these eggs.
	So currently there's been 8 million less free-range hens ordered for next year's flocks.
	So that's just under 8 million eggs every day that we're not going to be producing.
	So that's 8 million eggs less every single day that we don't produce.
	And we're already three million eggs short of being self-sufficient.
	So the UK have to import three million eggs every day to feed the nation.
	And now we're losing another eight million birds because the supermarkets won't pay us.
	And they're going to blame the farmers.
	They'll be like, oh, well, the farmers just stock them and produce you great British food.
	But we can't afford to.
	If the supermarkets paid us a fair price for our eggs, then we would stock our sheds and there would be more sheds going up and the UK could be self-sufficient in Great British eggs, but the supermarkets won't pay us.
	So if you can make any sense of that, or if you have any questions, I'm happy to answer.
	But yeah, the current egg shortage isn't really due to avian flu.
	It's because the supermarkets are refusing to pay us a fair price for our produce.
	You see, once we start kicking in the supply chain, once we throw that wrench in the machinery, it just starts going in every direction.
	Of course, there's a lot of different things that are happening.
	They're getting squeezed in the middle.
	They're not the middleman.
	They're getting squeezed by the middleman.
	They're also getting squeezed by the people who are transporting stuff, in many cases.
	Railroads. As a matter of fact, you've got chickens in California are starving because the farmers can't get the corn shipments to the chickens because the railroad's like, we've got other things that we'd rather do.
	They have to go to the transportation board and force them to deliver this stuff.
	And this is the second time this has happened.
	So you've got rising cost of supplies, you have shortages of things, and as he's pointing out, it's going to get much worse next year.
	This is why, even though we are now Closing in on three years of this insanity...
	Things are still continuing to escalate, and they're going to get worse next year because all of the shocks and the back and forth throughout the supply chain.
	So going back to California, millions of chickens have gone unfed as rail disruptions are delaying corn shipments to a California poultry farm, according to documents that provide unique details of how one shipper has suffered from poor rail service.
	And of course, we've seen other aspects of this.
	This is not the first time we've seen the railroads doing this.
	Well, I'm not going to carry this stuff.
	I've got some other things. People are paying me more for that.
	And it's just a lack of capacity.
	The same way we see things happening all the time now with the airline industry.
	Personnel shortages kick people out.
	People have died from this stuff.
	And antiquated systems that aren't working.
	The second largest freight railroad in North America.
	The supply issues also forced the company to shut down a plant that processes raw corn into animal feed to sell it, said the federal filings.
	That meant cutting off its dairy farm customers from cornmeal and giving priority to its chickens.
	They can't feed the cattle.
	I guess they can put the cattle out, maybe let them graze a little bit to give them something.
	I don't know. But they've got to give priority to the chickens.
	Why?
	Because the chickens start killing each other when they go hungry.
	After a flurry of correspondence that offers unfiltered insight into shippers' problems with rail service, the U.S. Surface Transportation Board ordered Union Pacific to deliver more corn-laden trains to Foster Farms.
	This is the second time in the past year that Foster Farms has had to ask the rail regulator to intervene directly because of Union Pacific's failure to deliver animal feed trains on time.
	It is also the latest in a long simmering tussle between shippers and railroads, which have seen profits rise as car loads are dwindling.
	So they're actually doing less but raising the prices.
	How did they get away with doing that?
	But that's what we're seeing. That's what the farmer said.
	So the people who are delivering feed to the farmers are doing less, but they're making a lot more.
	Their profits are soaring, even though they're shipping less.
	And as this farmer in the UK was saying, he said, look, all of our costs are going up.
	But they won't pay us any more at the supermarkets.
	So the supermarkets are getting a shortage, and it's going to get far worse next year.
	These service failures, which began in February 2022, have resulted in numerous instances where Foster Farms has suspended its production and its distribution of feed for tens of thousands of dairy cattle, tens of millions of chickens and turkeys.

	Let's talk about eggs.
	This is...
	I think we're being eggsploited here.
	There's a temptation...
	Do you remember the old Batman from the 1960s and had Vincent Price as egghead and it was one egg pun after the other?
	Well, it is a very serious situation because this is not about avian bird flu.
	It really isn't. But let's start with this.
	There's egg smuggling going on across the Mexican border.
	Now that tells you everything that you need to know, right?
	Because when you go back and you look at What happened with baby food, right?
	Well, people, if they could get across the Mexican border, they could find baby food on the shelves.
	They could get it at a decent price, but you couldn't in America.
	Why was that? Well, we were told it was because the FDA overreacted Through a story about contamination at a facility, and they had to shut down that facility.
	And because our supply chains in the United States are so heavily concentrated and consolidated and monopolized, that shutting down that one factory put a tremendous hitch in the entire food chain supply for baby food.
	And again, of course, if you have a child that doesn't have any health issues, you can feed that baby a lot of different things.
	But the baby food formula was pretty critical for some kids who had certain digestive illnesses.
	And that was a real concern for them.
	And so we had some baby food that was flown in from Germany.
	We had people who said, well, can we bring some in from...
	Oh, no, no, no, not going to open up the doors for that.
	So the FDA would stand in the way of bringing in baby food that was made in Mexico.
	Or even in Germany, they didn't like much of it.
	But, you know, hey, we could do a symbolic gesture and bring in a little bit on one plane load or two.
	But the FDA did not want to allow that to come across the border.
	And so now we've got a different situation.
	We've got a big egg shortage.
	Signs on the shelves saying, hey, you can't get eggs, and if you can get them, they're super expensive.
	And what is happening with this?
	Well, we're told that this is the flu.
	Is it? It's avian flu, but you can get it just fine in Mexico.
	It's, you know, in Texas, all the birds are dying, I guess, but in Mexico, they're fine.
	So, confiscation of egg products by U.S. border officers.
	Because you don't bring those cheap eggs in here.
	Why don't you want cheap eggs in?
	Why is that? Increased 108% confiscation did.
	From October the 1st to December the 31st, according to the Border Report, during that time, egg prices climbed to record highs.
	Aren't you glad that our Border Patrol is on the job?
	Stopping this dangerous trafficking and eggs?
	Yeah, yeah.
	43 million egg-laying hens recently died in a bird flu outbreak, according to the Department of Agriculture.
	That's the narrative. But that narrative is not true.
	According to a group called Farm Action, it is a farmer-led advocacy group.
	And on Thursday, they asked the Federal Trade Commission to, quote, promptly open an investigation into the egg industry.
	I guess they want it to be eggspedited.
	Sorry, I'll try not to do that too often.
	To prosecute any violations, I just can't help it, of the antitrust laws.
	And ultimately get the American people their money back.
	So big egg producers are behind what they call a collusive scheme, unquote, to gouge consumers, says this farm group.
	Just before testifying at an open meeting of the Federal Trade Commission, Farm Action, this is the group of farmers, Sent a letter to the agency chair, Lena Kahn, detailing its, quote, concerns over apparent price coordination, price gouging,
	and other unfair or deceptive acts or practices by dominant egg producers, such as Cal Maine Foods, Rose Acre Farms, Versova Holdings, and Hillandale Farms.
	Farm Action said, quote, egg prices have more than doubled for consumers from last year, going from $1.79 in December 2021 to $4.25 in December 2022 for a dozen large grade-A eggs.
	Major egg producers and their allies have blamed surging prices on a, quote, supply disruption, unquote, triggered by the deadliest outbreak of avian influence in U.S. history, calling it an act-of-God type of stuff, said the letter.
	However, based on its analysis of publicly available industry data, Farm Action determined that while the avian flu outbreak killed roughly 43 million egg-laying hens nationwide in 2022— Its actual impact on egg supply was minimal.
	This is why when you testify, they say, the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.
	You see, to say that 43 million egg-laying hens have died, it is not the whole truth.
	That is true.
	But it's not the issue.
	They said, So there's not a lot of missing birds,
	frankly. They said the effect of the loss of egg-laying hens on production was itself blunted by record high laying rates observed among the remaining hens throughout the year.
	So the total number of chickens, even though 43 million of them were put down, the total number of chickens in any given month was never more than 7-8% lower.
	And in all but two of the months, it was never less than 6% below.
	And they made up that small deficit in the number of birds by productive laying hens.
	More than made up for that.
	This sounds exactly like what happened with Hurricane Katrina.
	Beforehand, they were all hyping up about how it's going to destroy the refineries.
	It's going to destroy the refineries, and the gas prices spiked.
	And then afterwards, like, oh, none of the refineries were damaged.
	They were all fine, and the gas prices never came back down.
	Especially diesel, because we added diesel at the time.
	And, you know, another aspect of that was to – well, the real – they were putting out that narrative because they wanted to hide the fact that the federal government was putting in new arbitrary – Uh, things are going to increase the price of diesel fuel.
	So, instead of telling you this is because of new and unnecessary federal regulations, they say, well, it's because of the hurricane.
	And then, uh, then the hurricane narrative goes away and nobody connects the dots because mainstream media wants to cover for the feds.
	You're exactly right, Travis. Yeah, uh, so, anyway, um, so there's any egg shortage.
	You know, it's true, they had 43 million chickens dying, but the bottom line is, so what?
	And this is what we've been told in the UK as well.
	This is not just the US. Again, this is global, right?
	Isn't it amazing to see the global attack on our food supply?
	It'd be one thing, and that's where I think, you know, the farm action is kind of missing.
	They didn't want to go global with it because then everybody just says, oh yeah, you're one of these conspiracy theorists out there.
	But it is a global conspiracy.
	Why? Because these big corporations are multinational.
	And so you see the same types of things happening in the UK. I played that video last week where the farmer said, no, there's birds that are dying with it.
	That's not what it is.
	You're being squeezed by the grocery stores, and you're being squeezed by the egg producers, and they don't want to pay us any more.
	They want to cut down on, even though all of our costs for fuel and for feed have skyrocketed, they don't want to pay us any more money.
	That's another aspect of it.
	So with total flock size substantially unaffected from the avian flu, and lay rates between 1% to 4% higher than the average rate observed between 2017 and 2021, the industry's quarterly egg production experienced no substantial decline in 2022 compared to 2021.
	So why did it double? Listen to the way that it went up.
	Nevertheless, the weekly wholesale price for shell eggs climbed from $1.74 per dozen at the end of February to $1.94 in the middle of March.
	By the first week of April, it had reached $2.98 per dozen.
	Two months after this point, the wholesale price of eggs appeared to stabilize, but then it started increasing again.
	In July, it broke previous records and reached $3 a dozen.
	After dipping briefly in August, the rally in wholesale egg prices continued, hitting $4 a dozen in October and $4.50 a dozen the first weeks of December.
	According to Farm Action, major egg producers' massive price hikes are unjustifiable.
	In addition to the avian flu outbreak, Some have attributed skyrocketing egg prices to higher feed and fuel costs, but the dominant producer's course of business documents suggest these claims have little to merit, says the letter from Farm Action.
	For example, in a presentation to investors just this month, Cal Maine noted that the total farm production and feed costs in 2022 were only 22% higher than they were in 2021.
	So how did you wind up going several multiples of, you know, several hundred percent increase?
	The real culprit behind this 138% hike in the price of a carton of eggs, says the letter, appears to be a collusive scheme among industry leaders to turn inflationary conditions and an avian flu outbreak into an opportunity to extract egregious profits.
	That's theirs. I mean, I didn't spell it with two Gs, but it is egregious, reaching as high as 40%.
	The Chief Financial Officer of CalMain, the nation's largest producer and distributor of eggs, has admitted as much, saying in a recent statement that, quote, significantly higher selling prices, our enduring focus on cost control, and our ability to adapt to inflationary market pressures has improved profitability overall.
	There are going to be people who are going to exploit inflation, and they're going to be the drivers of inflation.
	Oh, well, you know, we've been told that there's going to be a lot of inflation.
	You should be expecting inflation.
	So we got avian flu.
	Oh, well, the price is going to go up, you know, from two bucks, from $1.70 to $4.55 a dozen.
	Contrary to industry narratives, the increase in the price of eggs has not been an act of God.
	It has been simple profiteering, said Farm Action's letter.
	And again, we see this is not happening in Mexico.
	I guess, kind of like Sherlock Holmes and he had the dog that didn't bark, this would be the chicken that didn't squawk.
	This disparity between the food supply here and Mexico.
	We're supposed to believe that Mexico is a third world country?
	Well, nothing makes you more of a banana republic than to have a corrupt government, which we have.
	CalMain's willingness to increase its prices and profit margins to such unprecedented levels suggests foul play.
	Of course, don't spell it.
	F-O-W-L. Fundamentally, this is not a laughing matter, quite frankly.
	They're coming after our food supply.
	Fundamentally, CalMain seems to be engaging in price leadership using the perceived flu outbreak and the inflationary conditions of the past year's cover.
	To establish a new focal point for egg prices.
	This pattern of behavior by the dominant firms in the egg industry raises significant concerns about monopoly power and potential antitrust violations in this sector.
	But do you think anything's going to happen with this administration?
	I mean, you know, pharmaceutical companies, the FDA, I guess they know better than to ask the FDA to do anything about this.
	So they're asking the Federal Trade Commission With its authority under the Sherman, Clayton, and FTC Acts to identify, challenge, and uproot anti-competitive arrangements.
	Collusion. This presents, they said, exactly the kind of monopoly or oligopoly power that is entrenched in a market with highly inelastic demand and that imposes substantial costs on the public.
	You see, when you have a consolidated industry, just like with a baby food thing, You got one gigantic factory and one gigantic, you know, the biggest factory of the biggest producer, and you shut that down.
	And how did they get that much?
	Well, they got it through collusion with the government.
	You know, when you go back and you look at the monopolistic situation with this, the baby food thing, they were able to establish a monopoly situation By getting lucrative contracts, monopolistic contracts to provide the baby food through the welfare, the various states and federal agencies.
	So they worked their way in that way, you know, by working with the government officials to get a contract that allowed them to essentially establish themselves as a monopoly.
	And then they put all of their eggs in one basket when it came to baby food into that one factory that then shut down.
	Going back to farm action, what Cal Maine Foods and the other large egg producers did last year and seemed to be intent on doing again this year is to extort billions of dollars from the pockets of ordinary Americans through what amounts to a tax on a staple product that we all need, eggs.
	Eggs. One of the questions that the Knights of the Storm had for Travis when they talked to him.
	They said, well, what is your family?
	Somebody put up a question.
	What has your family done to prepare?
	I'd like to know what you guys have done so that I can learn from you.
	And it's like, well, I know it needs to be done.
	We haven't done. We talked about it after the show.
	I said, yeah, our only preparation has been to move.
	I've gotten to know some farmers in the area, but we have not started our chickens up again.
	We lost two flocks when we were back in Texas.
	We've spent all of our time just trying to get relocated away from being adjacent to a very large and potentially very dangerous urban center and to get to an area where we're going to be able to – we've got some things that we can put together, but we haven't put any of this stuff together.
	Even to the extent that we had this massive snowstorm, we weren't even prepared with firewood for this stuff, let alone a good wood furnace.
	And so we are hopelessly behind in this stuff.
	So again, do as I say, not as I do type of thing.
	But we do have to get back into raising chickens.
	And we've been, you know, just working around the clock, trying to get everything organized after this move.
	It's It's been very complicated trying to keep the show going with the number of hours that we do the show and try to move across country and all the stuff that we got and all the adults and everything.
	And then, of course, going back and forth with weddings and other things like that.
	But we've been reluctant to start up the chickens again because we lost two flocks and we're really concerned about just feeding the hawks around here.
	Yeah. Or other wildlife.
	But it's something that everybody needs to do.
	And this is just another example of it.
	This type of monopolistic manipulation is happening throughout the food supply chain.
	And all of these companies and government agencies are about dominating everything.
	They said they raised these prices without any legitimate business justification.
	They did so because there is no reasonable substitute for a carton of eggs.
	They did it because they had the power to do it and they weren't afraid to use it.
	This kind of organized theft is exactly what Congress and the public that it supposedly represents empowered and directed the FTC to prevent.
	And so they're calling on the FTC to act.
	Using free speech to free minds.
	It's the David Knight Show.
	Hear news now at APSRadioNews.com or get the APS Radio app and never miss another story.
	Joining us now is Eric Peters, EPautos.com.
	One of my favorite sites because Eric covers things that are dear to my heart, liberty and freedom of transportation, private cars and things like that.
	He's got great reviews, but he also, you can't do anything today.
	Without getting involved in politics, because politics has intruded itself in every aspect of our life, and it is overriding our car decisions left and right.
	They're redesigning the cars left and right out of Congress and other places.
	But thank you for joining us, Eric.
	Oh, you bet. I'm standing here by my propane gas heater doing the Davos shuffle.
	That might have been a little bit too far for Biden.
	You know, as he came out.
	And the justification that he had for it was complete nonsense.
	This whole thing about childhood asthma.
	Seriously? Come on, you know when the gas is leaking because they put some, you know, stinky gas in there so that it has a smell.
	And it's not leaking, it's being burned.
	It's ridiculous. But it's of a piece, isn't it?
	You know, we've talked about how they want to push everything into a single centralized source of energy.
	That is electricity. You drive an electric car.
	They want you to have an electric heat pump in your house.
	And the reason for that is obvious because then they have absolute control over everything that keeps you alive.
	You know, your ability to stay warm, your ability to cook, to cool your food, and of course to drive.
	That's what this is fundamentally all about.
	That's right. And Kathy Hochul in New York was upfront about it, and so have the regulators and the eco-dictators in the UK and other places.
	They said, look, we're doing this to satisfy the climate gods.
	Biden came up with this bogus nonsense about asthma, and I think it's because he's trying to We're good to go.
	Construction, residential is going to start at such and such a point.
	We're going to give you another couple of years to phase it out for commercial, but you're not going to be allowed to have any gas, space heating.
	And then at the last minute, Kathy Hochul stuck in her thing into that same bill, saying we're going to cut off gas ranges and the rest of the stuff.
	And the chefs at the restaurants are like...
	No, you're not. That's going to put us out of business.
	And so they jumped the shark on that.
	They went a little bit too far with their bans too quickly.
	And that's a good thing to see people finally waking up to what is happening with us.
	It is. I think perhaps a lot of people are beginning to discern the common thread here, which has nothing to do with climate change.
	That's just the excuse to drag us back to a feudal state of the Middle Ages, where you had a pyramidal society with the Lords, And the priests at the very top, and today's priests, of course, are those who are promulgating this whole climate change religion, and everybody else is impoverished and underneath the foot of the lords and the priests.
	That is kind of a snapshot of what these Davos people would like to see happen.
	And they made it pretty clear in their last, you know, big confab that was in Egypt, COP27, they even created these little phony green tablets like the Ten Commandments, and they had ten environmentalist commandments, and they go up this little mountain and they look back at where the conference was and they said, That's not good enough.
	And they destroy the tablets. I mean, it's just, the whole thing is just a mockery.
	It's an imitation. But it's good to see them going too far on this.
	And you got an article about adaptable vehicles, and I want to talk about that.
	But before we do, just as we were talking off air when you got on, you said you had some idea as to what is going on with Biden.
	It looks like the establishment has turned on him, doesn't it?
	It smells like it.
	You know, I've got a pretty good detector for this sort of thing, and the same organs that were vehemently behind him when it came to anything, whatever indefensible thing he did, they would find a way to defend it.
	Well, now all of a sudden we've got these documents that supposedly were being stored in his garage at his Delaware house, and they're actually taking umbrage about that.
	There are negative stories about this.
	Ooh, how irresponsible. How could this be?
	And that suggests to me that maybe they're trying to figure out a way to dump The geriatric kid sniffer, you know, because they have a real problem on their hands.
	What are they going to do? The next election is only a little bit more than two years away now at this point.
	And I think he's a liability.
	He's becoming a liability for a variety of factors.
	And maybe if they can push him out of the way, then we get Kamala Harris as the new president.
	Perhaps she's going to then appoint somebody like Gavin Newsom as her vice president.
	And voila, there we go.
	Instant, you know, instant American Trudeau come 2024.
	Yeah, I just don't know how they think they're going to do much better with Lala Harris.
	I mean, she's not senile, but she can't complete a sentence or a thought.
	She says, oh, isn't that something?
	But when I look at this, Eric, I talked about this yesterday or the day before.
	I said, you look at David, it was yesterday, because we're only on Tuesday.
	Seems like a week is going by.
	I did a midnight show last night, so I lost track of which day we're on.
	But David Gergen, One of the mouthpieces, you know, certainly for CNN, but he's been on both sides of the establishment for many years.
	He was working with Republicans, you know, from Nixon and Reagan and everything.
	But, you know, he worked with Clinton and the rest of them, and they've got the knives out for Biden.
	And I think one of the things that's key that I talked about, Sue, what you think about this, I said, you know, it's come out that they knew about Biden's documents at least a couple of weeks before the election.
	Now, they would keep that quiet because they didn't want to affect the election.
	But they also knew about it well before they did the Trump raid.
	And I think that's even more significant.
	I question as I looked at that, because I don't think there's really anything in terms of the documents with Trump.
	They talk about a pardon for Roger Stone or something.
	But the documents that Biden has...
	Yeah, I think.
	Yeah. Bizarre thing where they're sending a plane with all this foreign currency because they were prohibited from doing that to pay them off and to ransom some people.
	So there's a lot of stuff there.
	So maybe, I looked at this, I thought, well, maybe they made that raid against Trump.
	They don't need any more things to come after Trump.
	They got so many different ones that they can't close a deal on any of those that this isn't going to help them.
	But maybe the more significant thing is of Biden and maybe this is a two-for-one and maybe the attack on Mar-a-Lago really was.
	I don't know. I'm kind of a deep conspiracy theorist.
	I see this as a two-for-one.
	Given that anything is possible, anything literally is possible these days, there's nothing that restrains these people.
	I certainly think that that's a plausible scenario.
	And as a legal matter, I'm not a lawyer, but I've been given to understand that in Trump's case, he is the former president, and there's a different standard there for the president to have hold of certain documents, whereas A lot of these documents apparently that Biden had date back to when he was the vice president.
	And did not have legal authority to do what he did.
	So, you know, we're going to see, I guess, over the next couple of days, weeks, what happens.
	That's right. Yeah, the Democrats want to get rid of Trump.
	Most Republicans do as well.
	But the Democrats, it looks like now, want to get rid of Biden because, as you pointed out, this is a lot more serious.
	There are more serious documents involved.
	And he was just the vice president.
	He wasn't the president. So this is potentially a lot more serious.
	I think it is killing two birds with one national security.
	And here's the other thing, Eric.
	Is anybody bringing up the Hillary Clinton, Clintonemails.com?
	Nobody's still talking about that.
	That's a big, you know, the dog that did not bark, you know?
	Why, if we're going to get ourselves all worked up about Biden and Trump, why are we not talking about Hillary here with all this stuff?
	Well, of course, because, again, it's cognitive dissonance.
	You know, the apparatus, just like in 1984 when the party orator, Shifts gears in mid-speech.
	You know, Eurasia is the enemy one moment, and then it's East Asia the next minute.
	And the crowd, like a bunch of trained SEALs, just claps their approbation.
	That's what happens these days.
	That's right. That's right.
	Well, let's talk about, if Davos gets his way, let's talk about adaptable vehicles.
	I think it's a great article. Tell people what you're talking about here.
	Yeah, well, we all know what's happening with regard to new cars and this push toward electrification.
	And the fact that most late model cars are very, very difficult to do anything other than basic maintenance on because of all the electronics.
	And when those parts no longer become available or they're discontinued, you've got a problem.
	You know, we were given a kind of preview of this during these supply chain interruptions that have happened over the course of the air fingers quotes pandemic.
	So when something goes wrong with these electronic systems, you have a car that's useless.
	It doesn't work and you have no way to fix it because The parts are specific to that vehicle, and you have to have that particular part in order for it to work.
	And in some cases, you have to have a dealer program the part in order for the vehicle to work.
	Well, with older but not ancient vehicles, I've got an 02 Nissan Frontier pickup.
	They have electronic fuel injection, but that's the only really electronic thing that they have.
	The rest of the vehicle, remarkably, is still essentially a mechanical device, very similar to the vehicles that were made 30, 40 years ago.
	And it's not too difficult, if you wanted to, to replace the electronic fuel injection, all the sensors in the computer, with a simpler mechanical fuel delivery system, meaning a straightforward intake manifold and a carburetor.
	And then you don't have to worry about any of that.
	You know, I've got an old muscle car.
	It's almost 50 years old.
	It still has its original carburetor.
	And it's easy for me to take it down and rebuild it, fix it, whatever.
	And even if I had to replace the whole thing, it's only a $500 part, brand new.
	And I'll never have to do that, probably.
	That's a growth industry for somebody to offer that service for people.
	Well, it is. And the point is that when we get to a scenario, like in Cuba, where parts aren't available but we want to be able to continue to move, it behooves us to figure out a way to keep our vehicles going.
	And this is one way to do that.
	If you have a relatively modern vehicle like my O2 Frontier, you can retrofit and adapt these simpler, more DIY-friendly components to it.
	And be able to continue to drive it.
	Whereas with the newer stuff, everything is completely electronicized.
	Everything. You can't do anything to these vehicles anymore.
	So it's just a thought that it might be a good thing to consider doing that or getting a vehicle like that, that you could do that with, given the way things are rolling.
	Yeah, and I can see that, you know, some new technology kind of coming to the rescue with that.
	Remember, we have Jay Leno in his garage.
	He got a lot of really, really old classic cars nobody's making parts for anymore.
	And when they would want to replace it, some of these things they would 3D print.
	I can imagine that you could probably have situations where people put up 3D printed files and sell them to you or even offer them for free for various car parts that are no longer around.
	I could definitely see that happening.
	But you're right. You and I talked about this years ago when they started coming after...
	John Deere. Farmers are used to fixing their equipment.
	That's one of the ways that they survive is by being self-reliant and being able to do things on their own instead of having to pay everybody for every service.
	But John Deere started shutting that down.
	GM was shutting that down, making things inaccessible under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act or something like that.
	We're saying, well, we always own the computer code, and you better not replace that or modify that.
	And if you were even to buy the part… You couldn't install it without having some John Deere dealer that was going to specifically program it and enable it for you.
	So they wanted to essentially turn you into renters forever, never owning anything.
	And you pay for it, but you never really own it.
	They retain ownership of that.
	And so that's been there in a lot of different ways.
	Yeah, and they're actually elaborating the principle.
	More and more, some of the...
	The features that you used to buy when you got a car.
	For example, I'd like to have heated seats or a heated steering wheel.
	You paid for that option and it was yours.
	You owned the car and that was it.
	Now they're selling these things on a subscription basis.
	The system is in the vehicle when you buy it, but it's only enabled if you sign up for a monthly or a yearly subscription.
	If you don't continue to pay them, Then the heated seats don't work anymore, and you never truly own the heated seats.
	Isn't it great? Yeah, it just keeps metastasizing, doesn't it?
	It truly is amazing. And you know, when you look at the complexity of these different cars, having a Miata, I was amused to look at what a company called Flying Miata would do.
	They would stuff V8 engines into little Miatas and stuff, right?
	You know about them. Well, you know, they did that just fine the first couple of generations, you know, and they do a new Miata about every 10 years or whatever.
	But... The first couple of generations, they were able to put that in there with no problem at all.
	Then when they get to the third generation, it got kind of complicated because now all of a sudden there's a lot of electronic things that are interconnected and they had to get a consultant to come in and it made a bit of an issue.
	Even though they had more room under the hood, it became a very complicated thing because of the electronics.
	And then when they came out with the fourth generation a few years ago and they wanted to drop a V8 engine into that, They said they nearly couldn't do it.
	They hired a whole bunch of different consultants because they had on the bus, everything was interconnected, whether you're talking about every system, emergency systems and driver assist systems that were there, as well as the heater and the radio.
	All these things were interconnected.
	It's not just the drivetrain.
	Late model vehicles have things called body control modules, which...
	Govern the operation of things like the power windows.
	And they won't work. If you take the electronics out for one thing, then nothing else works.
	So you essentially would have to gut the entire vehicle and then re-engineer it from the ground up.
	And yeah, it can be done, but it's prohibitively expensive.
	And essentially, nobody's going to do that except for perhaps a handful of very affluent people.
	So, you know, it's alarming to me as an enthusiast, as somebody who likes to be able to work on my own vehicles, what they have done now to just make these things essentially tablets on wheels or cell phones on wheels.
	And it's not just the electric cars.
	It's regular cars, too.
	They're not serviceable.
	They work great.
	Usually when you buy them, you just go and you don't really have to do anything to them in terms of maintenance.
	But then eventually you get to this point where things start to go wrong.
	And when they do go wrong, forget about it.
	You're not going to be able to do anything about it yourself.
	And nobody else may be able to either because the parts may not be available.
	Yeah.
	They, you know, this year they went back to the Consumer Electronics Show and we talked about it a couple of years ago before the quote unquote pandemic.
	And the kind of stuff that you're seeing there now, oh, look, BMW's got a car that changes colors all the time.
	It's like, well, how much does that cost to fix if you get a ding at the supermarket, you know?
	I mean, none of this stuff is practical, but it is all electronics.
	And you've got Sony coming out with their car in conjunction with, I think it was Honda or something.
	And, you know, they're putting together a car.
	Because it really has now become kind of a mobile boombox.
	And with many other types of things, it's really a piece of consumer electronics.
	That's why they've dominated the show for the last two that they've had over the last four years.
	They've only had two shows, but the last two of them they've had that way.
	But when we look at getting our independence, I like what you were talking about in terms of de-electronification of a car, whatever if that's a word.
	Yeah, de-electronization.
	I know. I come up with these neologisms to try to convey the point.
	Maybe they're a little bit awkward sometimes.
	Yeah, I think we're going to have to think of how we are going to do our own fuel as well.
	I talked about this on the show.
	I said, you know, I've seen for years they have microbreweries, right?
	And somehow they were able to get out of the clutches of the ATF. And around here, it's something that's just happened in the last few years.
	They would say, well, you can do beer and it can't have a high alcohol content or whatever.
	But around here... Something happened, and I don't know what the legal basis of it is.
	I haven't looked it up. But there are just tons of what they call moonshine places.
	So these are like a microbrewery, except they're doing hard liquor.
	And so if you can do something like that, there's got to be some way that we could do micro refineries, you know, where we could produce fuel of some sort.
	That's basically grain alcohol.
	Essentially, that's what we're talking about.
	Ethanol is alcohol.
	And you can make it from corn, and you can make it from a lot of other materials that people can grow on their own.
	You may not be able to make massive quantities of it, but in a pinch, you could probably make enough to, for example, run a generator, run your power equipment, run your vehicle if need be.
	You know, converting an older vehicle that doesn't have electronics, it has a carburetor, to alcohol is a fairly straightforward process.
	You just have to get alcohol-compatible gaskets and so on, and then increase the, you know, up-jetted to make to compensate for the leaner fuel mixture that alcohol We'll give you, but it's a pretty straightforward process and people have done it for decades.
	We've talked about greasels, people converting their diesel to run off of animal oil and things like that.
	And so that's been around for a while, but even Porsche came out with an eFuels.
	What was it? They turned CO2 or methane or something like that into a liquid that could be burned without any adjustment to the engine, but they're going to do it in a very, very special way.
	It's going to be super expensive, I guess maybe because it's got to be done in this little bespoke factory that is down in the tip of South America.
	And a place where there's constant wind, and it's going to be green because they're going to power the plant that makes this stuff from wind power, all this other kind...
	But you don't need that. I mean, you know, you could...
	That's just the take-home point.
	The reason why we have been continuing to rely on gas and diesel is because it's easy and it's efficient.
	It makes it feasible for average people to drive, and that's exactly why the Davos crowd doesn't like it and is pushing us into these Rube Goldberg-esque schemes and these expensive alternatives that are really not feasible for most people.
	Yeah, that's right. When we talk about, you've got another article, everything except cars.
	Talk about how the car companies have reimagined themselves.
	Well, you know, there's a phrase that the Marxists have called the long march through the institutions.
	And you know that they've marched through the institutions when General Motors...
	Which at one time was synonymous with American capitalism, now is more interested in selling this woke agenda.
	You go to their main corporate news page, which you'd think would be devoted to, hey, this is what cars were working on, and things of that nature.
	Instead, you find things about diversity, equity, inclusion, citizenship, all these sorts of things.
	I took a few snapshots from their site, and then I linked to a few other things and pointed out that this is probably why General Motors has about a 16% market share today, As opposed to the 28% of the entire North American market.
	That Chevrolet Division by itself had in 1968.
	Wow. Well, that's exactly what Klaus Schwab would approve of, though.
	This is ESG. We don't care about manufacturing anything.
	We don't care about making a profit.
	We want to tow the line for whatever the government agenda is or whatever the global agenda is.
	And they are right there towing the line.
	They were repurposed during the so-called pandemic.
	Oh, we're going to make you into ventilator manufacturers, along with Ford.
	But this is what Mary Barra has been all about, isn't it?
	Yeah. Keep in mind that for people at her level, and I think her annual compensation package is something on the order of $20 million annually, she's essentially part of the Davos crowd.
	And these people are essentially possessed of unlimited means, and they know that for them and their class, none of this matters because they will be able to afford the ultra-expensive, hand-built, probably, vehicles that That the elites will tootle around, and just like Stalin didn't worry about driving a car or having a car, he always had a car. You know, it's about making sure that the rest of the Soviet people didn't have a car.
	That's right. Yeah, I liked what somebody said about Davos.
	They called them the gold-collar workers.
	They're not blue-collar or white-collar.
	They're gold-collar because they are so separated from the rest of us.
	So elitist. I like what you put in your article here.
	Nowadays, companies do these things, but they're secondary and tertiary, the manufacturing things, too.
	Such things as people, safety, diversity, equity, inclusion, and, wait for it, citizenship.
	Is this a seventh-grade civics class?
	Maybe the Boy Scouts? Whoops, these aren't Boy Scouts.
	It's GM today. That pretty much sums it up, Eric.
	Yeah. Yeah, you know, I learned about citizenship when I was in the Boy Scouts.
	I didn't think you'd have to learn about that when you go to work for a car company.
	Yeah, but, you know, that's what they want, and that's part of their transformation of society.
	That's why we need to be looking at how we're going to retrofit our cars so they don't take us all the way back into the Middle Ages.
	Maybe we just go back to the 1950s, you know.
	Yeah, not so bad. You know, I've written repeatedly and spoken a number of times about the issue of secession, and I think really probably the best way to think of that is on an individual level, meaning that we each decide to simply opt out and we secede.
	We stop doing business with, we stop associating with these people, these organizations, all of that, and we create our own alternative system.
	And that is something that is within our grasp and something that is achievable as opposed to the far more difficult system That's right.
	Yeah, nullification. Wow, I would describe that.
	To just say, well, we're not going to do that.
	You've got a situation, as I was talking about earlier in the show, you're now up to 80 out of 102 counties in Illinois where the sheriff has said, we're not going to enforce this new gun control regulation.
	That's the appropriate path.
	And I've been saying, and we saw this all through this lockdown pandemic, That local officials could make things a lot better or they could make things a lot worse than even what they were trying to do at the state level.
	We've had situations in some states where you had governors fighting aggressive tyrants, public health officials and so forth in some locations.
	Or you've had situations where they stood for the freedom of the people against an invasive governor like Gretchen Whitmer or Pritzker or something like that.
	So it really is at the local level.
	And they've understood this all along.
	They would always say, the UN would say, think globally, act locally.
	Well, we need to understand what their plans are.
	We need to defeat them locally.
	And that's one of the reasons why on their agenda this year, the World Economic Forum, Davos, has an agenda on how to accomplish these things at the local level.
	They're going to try to bring in all these different mayors and bureaucrats at the local level to enforce this stuff.
	There's a stat, I think, that is on our side.
	As I understand it, roughly about 1% to 3%, depending on whose numbers you go by, of the population would be diagnosed as psychopathic or extremely narcissistic sociopath-type personalities.
	And that's a good thing because it means most people are decent people.
	They might get bamboozled, they might be confused, but most people, after a while, their conscience starts to work on them.
	And I'm speaking here to your point about these local sheriffs and so on, saying, you know, I'm not going to I'm not comfortable with this.
	I'm not going to enforce these laws.
	They're wrong.
	Yes, I think we're beginning to see the wheel turn in that direction.
	The people are saying, you know, what happened during the air fingers, quote, pandemic?
	This was despicable and awful.
	And I feel I feel gross that I had anything to do with it.
	And it's time to stop.
	And if that continues to happen, and I think that it will, things are going to get better.
	You know, we are all impatient for things to get better.
	But the Titanic doesn't turn on a dime.
	We just have to keep on plugging away and doing what we're doing.
	It took the other side 50 years to get us to where we are now.
	That's right. Yeah, there's a lot of inertia, but once you wake up the sleeping giant, we're going to stomp them into fine pieces once it happens.
	But I think part of the dynamic that's there with the local sheriffs, and I saw this in the early days of the pandemic as I talked to a local pastor, and he said, yeah, Pritzker in Illinois is threatening to shut us down.
	But the sheriff has got the cars protecting our church here because we all know each other.
	We've lived here for years.
	We've gone to school together.
	He's got deputies that go to this church.
	That's the issue. When these people get to the state level or to the federal level, We have to fight what
	they're doing. They want to...
	They're talking about digitalization of everything.
	That's a buzzword for Davos this year.
	They want to digitize us because they want to isolate us.
	We want to have a real world where we are involved with real people who live in our area, and if we have that kind of connection, then they lose their control over us.
	They do. There's accountability, and it's key.
	And I think that we've lived now for quite some time in what I consider to be an unnatural environment.
	This, as you say, this sort of alienating mass society in which you are just a widget, a one or a zero.
	And you don't know these forces that have control over you.
	They don't care about you.
	It's a machine. And I think to the extent that we can get back to a decentralized system, which is what the founders of the country had in mind, where, for the most part, the things that go on, go on at the community level.
	And as you say, with people that you've grown up with, went to school with, that you know, and vice versa.
	And that is how you maintain a healthy society.
	And to the extent that we can get back to that, the better things are going to be.
	Yeah, I think our societies – part of the problem is our societies have gotten too big to be representative and to have that kind of accountability.
	You look at what was originally – the original design of the Constitution was to limit the number of people represented by a representative to 30,000 or 50,000.
	Well, you know, we got away from that almost immediately, and then we had them fix the number of representatives, and so now one congressman is representing maybe 750,000 to 800,000.
	I don't know what the latest one is, but it had already been up to 750,000 rather than 50,000.
	And so these people, even the congressional level, they are too far distant from us.
	And I've said for the longest time, if we went back to that approach and limit it to 30,000 or 50,000 people, you'd wind up with several thousand congressional representatives, and we would have a truly representative body.
	And people say, well, they couldn't all meet in one place.
	That's right.
	They would have to stay at home.
	And that would be something that would be a good thing to have on Zoom, right?
	And you could do that.
	And that possibility has been there for quite a while.
	But everybody has now lived that and is currently living that.
	Certainly we should enforce that on them to have that kind of accountability, but it is that distance from us.
	You see these people go native, and that is, I think, the biggest threat to all of us, is that you break that connection to each other, whether it's your congressional representative or just people in your own neighborhood.
	Yeah, anything that tends to diffuse authority is beneficial.
	That would be the first response I have.
	And the second is, I've always kind of been uncomfortable with the word representative as it applies in a political context.
	If I have somebody represent me, that means they do exactly what I tell them to do.
	For example, my lawyer, he's my representative.
	He does what I tell him to do.
	If he doesn't do it, I can fire him.
	It's nonsense to characterize these politicians as representatives because they do whatever they're going to do.
	Maybe sometimes their interests will jive with what yours are, but they don't represent you in any etymologically honest way.
	Yeah, Congress has a better description because they're cons, right?
	Right. But I think George Santos is Exhibit A of that.
	He's a living joke every day.
	It's a new thing that's thrown out there.
	But I always talked about it in terms of, you know, when you...
	Think of Congress every two to four years or whatever you get to make a choice.
	Maybe for Senate, it's every six years, right?
	So every two, four, six years you get to vote.
	And what you get is a basket of things.
	And it would be as if you went to the grocery store and, you know, you can call them up and you can give them an order and they'll fill the stuff up and you just go by and pick it up.
	You know, some people do that. But imagine that everything was that way.
	You couldn't go through the aisles and pick out what you wanted and get exactly what you wanted.
	You would go and you would get either you get this basket A and it's got these things in it or you get basket B. You know where I'm going with this.
	You get a lot of stuff put in your basket that you don't want.
	And that's the problem with all these politicians and these political parties.
	It's a basket case of stuff you don't want.
	There's also a moral aspect of it that makes a person uneasy, or at least it makes me uneasy.
	On the one hand, you might like A, B, and C of what a given representative says that he's going to do.
	But on the other hand, there's G, E, and F that you don't like.
	So you have this uncomfortable balance.
	Trump is a really good example.
	Some of his policies might have been appealing.
	And yeah, I think I can go for that.
	But then there are these other things that he does that, you know, I really am uncomfortable with and want no part of.
	And you're placed in this position of having to vote, as they say, for the lesser of two evils.
	And the result of that is that we end up with something that's evil.
	Yeah, that's right. Speaking of that, you've got an article, Mercenarism, a picture of Glenn Beck.
	You'll know all about that.
	And Sean Hannity right there.
	Yeah, talk a little bit about that article.
	Well, it was prompted by an explosion of outrage.
	I was making my daily trek downtown from where I live and hit the gym, and it's about a half hour away.
	And the duration of the trip, I'm just listening to an infomercial on, you know, I think it was XM Sirius 125, their political channel, one of the political channels.
	And it's gotten so bad.
	You know, you want... On the one hand, to get some of this information out there, but as the late comedian Bill Hicks put it, you know, everything they say is suspect because they're constantly trying to sell you something.
	And it's not as if there's a separation.
	You know, hey, here's a word from our sponsors.
	In the middle of a monologue, they will start trying to hawk something to you.
	The actual host of the show will start trying to sell you something.
	That's right. So, you know, it seems to me like that's all they're doing.
	It's just about selling.
	You know, guys like Hannity and Beck, these guys are multi-millionaires.
	Why do they have to continue to do that?
	I'd love to have the question answered.
	If I'm them, and I'm in their position, and the studio or whatever, the radio station comes to me and says, we'd like you to read this ad.
	No, I'm not going to read that ad.
	You're welcome to put the ad on my show, and that's fine, but I'm not going to read the stinking thing, and if you don't like it, go pound sand.
	I've been there. Like some of the Instaart or whatever.
	It's like, I'm not selling it.
	No, and to be clear, I understand the necessity of earning a living and I understand that people in the media, I'm one of them, you have to have sponsors and so on.
	And there's nothing wrong with that.
	Back in the print days, we would have articles, news articles on a page and then maybe on the top right corner there'd be an ad for something.
	And that's fine because there was a clear separation between the news or the opinion And the ad, that was important because it let people realize that what you were saying in the news article or the opinion piece wasn't trying to sell them something.
	That's right. Yeah, well, the problem I have with it, you know, is when you're selling something that's bogus or if you start slanting the news in order to, you know, help your sponsor, as Fox News has done on these pharmaceuticals and vaccines.
	Yeah. Quite obviously.
	Brought to you by Pfizer.
	Yeah, that's right. They don't want you to see some of this stuff.
	Why? Because they are brought to you by Pfizer.
	These guys are getting tens of millions of dollars.
	Why? Because they're sponsored by Pfizer, throwing money at everybody about this kind of stuff.
	But yeah, you're right. Sometimes they will say, well, you know, we have to do this.
	It's necessary. It's the cost of doing business.
	No, it's not.
	You know, there's an example of Joe Rogan, who's a guy who has a microphone in a studio, and he does his show, and he has a tremendous audience.
	And sure, he has sponsors, but he doesn't try to sell you gold or dog chewy treats in the course of his conversations with people.
	And it just shows that it can be done.
	They just don't want to do it, and they're really undermining, I think, our cause.
	You know, people on our side of the fence, meaning, you know, the pro-liberty movement, generally speaking, I think has got to be very careful about not doing anything at all that can be used against us in the sense of portraying us as in it just to cash in and make money, like the Republican Party.
	Send in your $50 now to join the Republican caucus and all that kind of thing.
	It's got to stop.
	Well, you know, you mentioned Joe Rogan and Spotify that sponsors him and pays him tens of millions of dollars here is the one podcast that will not carry my program.
	I have been kicked off of them when I was at InfoWars and then, you know, when I started my own thing, I thought, well, maybe they'll do it now.
	And, you know, I go to a...
	I upload to one spot, like to Spreaker right now, and it pushes it out to all the different ones.
	And so we did that, and I was there for a couple of months, and then they shut it down.
	And then we changed and wouldn't give me an explanation.
	And so then we changed to another host, and it started putting the stuff out.
	And they pumped it out to Spotify as a default thing, so I thought, well, let's just see what happens with it.
	And I actually got a call from a Spotify rep, said, we'd like to monetize your podcast and put some stuff on there.
	I said, great, but are you sure?
	Am I okay with you guys?
	And while we were still talking about it, that took a couple of weeks, they shut me down again.
	And so, you know, and they have, I found out, That they have a piece of technology that they want to sell to all the other podcasts, which will identify naughty speech like mine and shut it down.
	So they have developed the tools to do that.
	That's why they're the only ones doing it.
	But this may metastasize other people.
	They may sell it to other people and shut down your podcast.
	Because, you know, I had...
	We had another one that contacted us and said, well, I would like to carry your show and, you know, looking at the downloads and all this other kind of stuff.
	And so I said, okay, that's fine.
	But, you know, they specialize in this diversity, equity, inclusive thing.
	So I thought they wouldn't find anything.
	Finally, they found somebody that said, well, we think we found a good sponsor for you.
	for you.
	They did like, uh, uh, uh, storable food or something like that.
	And I said, yeah, I don't, you know, that would be a good fit for us.
	But they said, but there's a caveat here.
	They don't want you to say anything about guns.
	I said, well, that's not going to happen.
	You know?
	So, I mean, it's that type of thing.
	Uh, if you go down the list, you know, there's absolutely no way that I'm going to get too many sponsors.
	We did find that, you know, we can get some on, uh, on Spreaker, but that's basically, we're still essentially run the way that you run your operation, which is just by voluntary donations.
	Yep.
	Yeah.
	And I think that's actually a really good alternative and it speaks to, it gets back to this issue of decentralization that we were talking All of the people who donate are individuals, and they decide on their own, I don't push or pressure anybody.
	If they like what I do, they can throw me a couple of bucks, and that's it.
	And that makes it impossible for any one of them To in any way threaten my ability to say what I want to say, whether it's on the radio or whether it's in my articles.
	And I think that's ultimately the way going forward for people in the media on our side of the aisle.
	That's right. People sometimes get really upset.
	I've listened to you for years and I really don't like what you had to say about this.
	Or you didn't cover this, so I'm not going to listen anymore.
	It's like, well fine, but I'm not going to tailor what I have to say to somebody who's angry with me, because I've already been there.
	That was my entire job, and I let that go because I wasn't going to tailor what I was going to say about the election nonsense and the lockdown nonsense and your non-essential and the warp speed stuff.
	I wasn't going to tailor it to any of that and tell people that Trump was playing 4D chess.
	It's like, forget about it. I'm not doing it.
	Right, and from the standpoint of a listener, why would you want that?
	Why would you want to listen to somebody that you know is going to flinch and duck the minute Somebody complains about what he had to say.
	I want to hear what he has to say and I'll make up my own mind and everybody else should do the same.
	I've told the story many times about when I was in college.
	Time and Newsweek, you know, they were the objective news reportedly, right?
	But they weren't. They were owned.
	They were pushing the party line, you know, from the CIA, Operation Mockingbird type of stuff.
	You know, they would cover the same topics and they would have the same approach to it.
	But I preferred to get my information from opinion journals, and they would be, you know, hardcore about their opinions.
	So I would go to a conservative one, I would look at National Review, and I'd look at The Nation, for example.
	You know, Nation and National Review, because they sound alike, I talk about that.
	But I had a lot of them that I looked at, because I wanted them to talk about the issue from their perspective.
	Whether I agreed with it or not, I would get different.
	And so I wanted to have that debate.
	I wanted the differences in opinion instead of this homogenized establishment problem that was being fed to everybody, which I could even see at that age that it was nothing but propaganda.
	Sure. How else do you get to the truth other than by sifting through a lot of information?
	Yeah, that's right. Which is what they don't want you to do anymore.
	And they've got the tools to basically shut it down.
	You know, the podcasts are one of the few things out there that is still available.
	Because, you know, even if you go on radio, you've got...
	You've got to find sponsors who are going to be okay with what you have to say.
	But the podcasts are the one thing that's out there right now, and they haven't figured out a way to censor it, but I think Spotify's got that tool, and it's going to be a matter of time before they run it.
	Well, have you been looking into Substacks?
	Yes, yes, and I should be doing more on Substack.
	I don't really want to engage with social media, but I think Substack would be a good alternative to that.
	Yeah, I've begun to.
	I don't by any means know a whole lot about it, but from what I gather, it is another decentralized venue, a way for you to, as they say, get the word out and not be beholden to anybody.
	And, you know, it's fine.
	It goes out to Twitter. It goes out to Facebook.
	But if they cut it off, so what?
	It's going out to other people.
	That's the beauty of this. Unless they really go full authoritarian, as long as we still have the ability to communicate and to disseminate, We'll find lateral moves to get around them, and ultimately, I'm confident that we're going to win if that proves to be the case.
	Well, you know, the thing about Substack, they've already been attacked a couple of years ago, and they held firm on that.
	And so they've got a commitment to free speech under the current management.
	That could change at any point in time, but at the current time, they've got a commitment to free speech.
	You can actually get notification out to people when you do a new article.
	It would be a very good fit for you.
	But I've also looked at it in terms of We've got a three-hour program here, so what I do is I typically will create an outline that gives people an idea of what I'm talking about every five to ten minutes, so they can kind of jump into the program and look at it.
	And some of the video hosts that we have, but I also put it up for the podcast.
	Some of the video hosts, you can click on the...
	The time code that I have there, and it'll take you to that spot in the video.
	But that would be a good fit for me, I think, to put that on Substack.
	I've been thinking about putting that up, putting a link to the video, as well as that, because that gets to be very long, and that gets swallowed by some of the podcast places.
	So if people were to find that, that might be a good fit for us.
	But it'd be a very good fit for you because it's oriented towards articles.
	Yep. One of the great ironies, I think, of our time is that the left, the old left, and we hear about the old right, well now we've got the old left, used to warn about what would happen when corporations owned the media and corporations were powerful enough to control the government.
	And now it's the left that is championing all of those things.
	That's right. Yeah, just like the left loves the FBI now.
	You know, when the FBI used to have their COINTELP programs and they were shutting down people on the left, left and right, and not left and right, but they're just shutting down the left.
	But now that they have joined the left, the left is cheering them on.
	We saw the same thing with the conservatives.
	You know, it's just the pendulum party.
	It's just swinging from one, you know, the bureaucrats are going from one political orientation to another one.
	But they've always been authoritarian.
	You've always had Jager Hoover.
	I had a guy send me a thing, he's an FBI agent, and he wanted to do, he wrote a book about what has happened to the FBI. He thinks it was really good until just the last couple of years.
	He's like, are you kidding me? You know, J. Edgar Hoover's name is on the building.
	What was J. Edgar Hoover about?
	You had Republican and Democrat presidents saying he's got blackmail files on everybody in Washington, and he did.
	When he died, he had his secretary going in and destroying all this stuff.
	Yeah, absolutely. It goes all the way back to the beginning of a lot of these authoritarian things, when he first came to power in the Palmer Raids under Woodrow Wilson.
	You know, that's where he cut his teeth.
	He was a horrible authoritarian propagandist, blackmailer, criminal his entire life.
	This whole organization has been tainted.
	But only now do the conservatives see it because they're the target now.
	I think part of that has to do with the general American embrace of the philosophy of Jeremy Bentham and utilitarianism.
	And to get away from that and to get back to a principled outlook where Fair play matters.
	Honesty matters. Words matter.
	They have definitions. All of that sort of a thing.
	That's how we combat this ultimately.
	Not say, well, this suits us now and we can leverage and maneuver this to our benefit.
	Rather, let's just do what's right.
	Let's do what's decent.
	Let's behave differently.
	Let's not be tricky. You know, there is an appeal to that, I think.
	And the more that we talk about that, I think the better things will be.
	Yeah, I agree. Let's talk about cars, because you do do car reviews.
	We always talk about politics when you come on.
	You got a review of the 2023 Chevy Blazer, a practical car that people can get.
	Tell people what you think about that.
	Well, what I think, among other things, is it's one of the few vehicles in its class that you can still get with a V6 without a turbo.
	And it's only a $500 option, and it's available on all except the base trims.
	And that's, you know, it's kind of sad, a commentary, when you think that, you know, that's something to champion.
	Because if you went back just a few years, a vehicle of that type, you know, a 4,000-pound-ish SUV kind of vehicle, it would have come standard with a V6. But because of the Davos crowd, that's going away.
	And you have these little four-cylinder engines, often turbocharged, often paired with a hybrid electric drivetrain, and so on and so forth.
	Would I still like to have the old Blazer?
	You remember the old Blazer that had a V8 and was a real 4x4?
	Sure, but this is still a good family vehicle, and it's not priced absurdly.
	It's about $35,000 to start.
	And by the way, I'm working on an article.
	Did you know what the average transaction price for a new car was in 2022?
	What's that? $48,000.
	No, you're kidding me.
	Yeah. People can tell you and I haven't been in the market for quite a while, have we?
	Yeah. Yeah, well, you know, and then I looked into it a little further because I remembered, you know, I thought, wait, wait, that's not right.
	And sure enough, you know, if you go back about two, three years, it was between 32 and 35.
	So we've seen this enormous uptick in the cost of vehicles.
	And part of that has to do with inflation.
	Part of that has to do with this electrification, people buying these electric cars, almost all of which start around $50,000.
	Well, of course, we've also had a big back-and-forth backlash and whiplash and everything in the supply chains.
	It's a real havoc.
	It looks like CarMax and Carvana, is it?
	They may be going out of business because, you know, first you had shortages of new cars, even if you could afford them, and then the price of used cars shot straight up.
	And so... You know, CarMax and other companies like that are buying these used cars and then the market just fell out.
	The price dropped for the used cars and they're stuck with these cars that they paid too much for.
	Yeah, they bought high and now they're selling low.
	But to get back to the Blazer, you know, if you're in the market for a family kind of a vehicle, much as I have issues with General Motors as a company, it's a good vehicle, particularly with the V6. I would encourage people to avoid these little turbocharged four-cylinder engines because they're just not that durable.
	A V6 without a turbo that has adequate displacement, adequate power that isn't under a lot of stress all the time.
	If you want a long-haul vehicle that's not going to cost you a fortune after the warranty runs out, that's what you ought to be looking for, in my opinion.
	Yeah, and I remember a few years ago, you found an electric car that you liked, the Chevy Volt, because it had a generator that was charging things.
	I just saw this last Friday that Mazda said, yeah, we're going to bring back the MX-30, which was essentially the same thing.
	They had a generator on the car that could charge the batteries, but they only sold just over 500 of those in the U.S., and they were all sold in California, and then they shut the thing down.
	And then there was talk that they were going to come back and make the generator the rotary engine.
	And it could be really small and compact and lightweight, and everybody got, well, that's going to be cool.
	But it looks like they're going to do the same thing again.
	It looks like they're maybe not even bringing it to the U.S. What is going on with that?
	Because I don't understand.
	Some people are saying, well, this looks like this was designed for regulatory compliance, and yet the regulators don't want any emissions.
	That's essentially what killed the volt, right?
	Yeah. Even though these things are immensely practical and eliminate all of the functional problems with electric cars, you don't have to worry about plugging in.
	You don't have to worry about running out of range.
	You can just get in and drive it because if the battery runs low, the onboard gas generator engine will fire up and it will You produce electricity and you just keep on going.
	Politically, the problem is that it's not quite a zero-emissions vehicle.
	It emits 0.00% more of whatever the anathema products are, and we just can't have that.
	That's why it's difficult for them to invest and commit to producing a vehicle that has already been outlawed effectively in California, Washington State, Oregon.
	A number of these states have said that only zero emissions vehicles may be sold after, what is it, 2030, 2035?
	And even if this vehicle emits essentially nothing, it's still not technically a zero emissions vehicle, and so they are precluded from selling it in those markets.
	And that's huge. You know, what are you going to build a vehicle for that you're not legally able to sell?
	Yeah, they went from cheering the Previa, which is a hybrid, to say, oh, we're not going to even allow those now.
	But what I don't understand about it is, you know, this has been known about the Chevy Volt.
	Why would they redesign yet another car?
	I mean, I don't understand why they would even come up with a Mazda MX-30.
	With a rotary engine in it, if they're not going to sell it and if it's going to be banned in various places because it's not a zero-emission car.
	Do you have any idea why they're doing that?
	Yeah, I do. Actually, I think Toyota and Mazda, those two in particular, they're hedging their bets.
	Akio Toyota, who's the head of the company, has publicly come out and kind of said that these electric cars are maybe not really the future.
	And I think they're investing in this sort of technology because they know that this thing is going to faceplant.
	And when it does, they're going to be in a really good position to offer vehicles that actually meet consumers' needs and which people can afford to buy.
	And I think, yeah, you're right.
	Toyota, Mazda, I would include in that Porsche because Porsche is talking about the e-fuels and everything.
	They understand it's not going to be practical to charge everybody through the centrally controlled grid.
	There's not going to be sufficient capacity.
	Everybody can see that as they're struggling to try to heat their homes in Europe.
	And so they know that there's no future in that.
	But then again, you've got this chicken and egg thing.
	As long as they play along With this narrative that we've got to have zero emissions, they're basically cutting themselves off of the past.
	That's the key thing.
	You do it. I do it all the time.
	Everybody's got to oppose this fundamental thing that we've got to minimize emissions.
	Forget about that.
	That's not about emissions.
	It's about omissions.
	They want to omit all of this stuff out of your...
	It's as phony as that, well, we're going to give kids asthma if they've got gas ranges.
	Give me a break. Yeah, well, and I'm very careful to make the distinction between emissions, as most people, when they hear that word, what they think about are things that result in air pollution, that cause smog.
	Those emissions are a non-issue anymore, and they have been since the 90s.
	New cars emit hardly any of those emissions, but it's been reframed such that carbon dioxide now is the emission that they mean when they use that word.
	And so therefore, the way to address that is to challenge this climate change religion thing that they're trying to create the new narrative around.
	It's as specious as the air fingers quote pandemic.
	It's the same sort of trickery.
	And once we do that, then we win.
	That's right. That's right.
	Yeah, I worked with a guy who had spent 30 years with the EPA. He started with the EPA. And he started with the EPA as the EPA was being formed.
	And it was all in the early days.
	It was all about air pollution and water pollution and things like that.
	And he was all on board with that.
	But then it turned into this green climate agenda that And he was not on board with that.
	He retired and he started opposing them.
	And that's where I got involved in an organization that I was doing some videos for them.
	But that is the pivot that they made.
	They started out by saying, we're going to have to have a super fund to clean up these polluted rivers and the dirty air.
	And that was fine.
	But they used that.
	To get their nose under the tent, and then you had mission creep, which is what bureaucracies always do.
	And not argue with them on the accepted premise that, oh, there's a great pandemic afoot.
	Oh, bro, we've got to wear masks, got to get vaccines.
	Same thing with this climate change shibboleth.
	That has to be challenged. I point out to people, do you know what the percentage of the Earth's atmosphere is?
	It's carbon dioxide. Most of them have no idea.
	And I point out it's 0.04%.
	Yeah, that's right.
	And then you're going to tell me that somehow by eliminating motor vehicles, engine vehicles...
	You're going to reduce that by a fraction of that, a fraction of a percent, and somehow that is going to avert catastrophic climate change.
	Yeah, we understand what the agenda is.
	Whether it's going to be global freezing, global warming, or a pandemic, they always wanted to do the same thing, which tells you that all three of them are phony.
	The fact that they hide their data and they won't debate you, they try to censor you, that has always been the continuing thing.
	Oh, you're a climate denier.
	Well, you've got to be shut down. We saw it with the pandemic.
	People, I think, are starting, hopefully, to understand that this is just a narrative tactic.
	It's just tyranny.
	But while we were talking about the price of cars, you've got another article, Default Tsunami.
	Talk about that. It's not just the...
	Car max who are buying high and selling low.
	Talk about what happens to individuals.
	Yeah, well, another interesting figure that I came up upon the other day was that as of last year, about 20% of all the new car loans issued were for a record seven years long.
	And a significant portion of those were issued for used car loans, if you can imagine that.
	So somebody who's bought an already depreciated car for a seven-year car loan.
	And what's going to happen, of course, is that these vehicles are not going to be worth continuing to make payments on.
	And a lot of people are either going to just decide they don't want to or that they can't because they haven't got the means to do it anymore.
	And we're already seeing the canaries in the coal mine chirping about this.
	There's a lot of evidence out there that defaults on new and used car loans are rising.
	And so a lot of these vehicles are going to just be dumped on the market, and that is going to depress the price of vehicles, which is good news for anybody who's in the market or going to be in the market for a vehicle.
	The prices are going to come down soon.
	Yeah, talk about the canary in the coal mine.
	The canaries are not laying any eggs, but the chickens aren't laying too many either for a lot of different reasons.
	Right. Supply chain things.
	Tell us a little bit about how your chickens are coming along because you're working in that area too, not just getting the electronics out of the car so that you can keep the thing going, but you're also working on chickens and ducks, I think.
	Yeah, you know, every once in a while I do something right.
	And one of those things was to build my coop and to get myself a flock of chicken and ducks.
	And I say, I pat myself on the back for it.
	I was at the grocery store the other day, and it's probably the same where you are.
	And a dozen eggs is now about seven bucks.
	Yes, yes. That's right.
	If you can find them. So, yeah, I get a nice discount because all I have to do is go out and pick them up from the birds.
	Yeah. Which is wonderful.
	And of course, nutritionally, they're a lot better.
	And there's all of that argument. But really, the fundamental point here, I think anybody who's not concerned about the prospect of food either becoming unaffordable or unavailable is living in a fantasy world.
	And they really need to face up to the fact that not only do these people want to take away our mobility, they want to take away our ability to eat.
	And it's really important to figure out ways to make sure that we don't starve.
	And this is one of the ways that I'm doing that.
	I was looking at articles covering Davos and opinion pieces, and I came across one where the guy says, well, you know, I'm not a conspiracy theorist, and this isn't a conspiracy.
	It's out in the open. It's like, well, I don't know that a conspiracy has to be secret, but what is in the open?
	And they're telling everybody about it.
	They don't want you to have any meat or dairy.
	You've got an organization called C40 that's got almost 100 cities, large cities involved in it.
	They don't want you to have...
	Three more than three articles of clothing per year.
	You can take a flight once every three years but not more than a thousand miles and on and on you know ban the electric ban all automobiles and and all the rest of this stuff.
	So it is an amazingly detailed authoritarian vision of a dystopian medieval society.
	So we're going to have to do this stuff on our own and you know if we don't Get the public to wake up as to what is behind this and realize what a lie is being sold to us.
	We're going to be in that basket.
	And I think one of the key ways that they're going to push this, and I think it's going to happen pretty soon, maybe this year, is going to be CBDC. We're going to see so much stuff with that where they can control and track everything that you do everywhere.
	And they'll limit you to the number of eggs if you don't have chickens.
	Yeah, I'm absolutely terrified of that.
	I hope that there is enough Awareness of the danger of that percolating out there that that ends up getting stopped in its tracks because that really could be the end of any semblance of freedom of action that we have short of going completely amateur or off the grid.
	That's right. Before we run out of time, tell us how you secured your chickens because we haven't done that since we've moved and we lost two flocks in Texas to coyotes and aerial predators and stuff.
	So how do you secure them? Well, nothing's perfect, but what I have is a high-fenced-in run area that I keep them in for whenever I'm not around supervised.
	Otherwise, I let them out in free range.
	Now, at night, they go back in to an enclosed coop that's locked, and it's a heavy-built structure, so anything short of a big bear would have trouble getting in that.
	And I also have an electric fence around the perimeter of my run.
	It's not absolutely perfect.
	Death can come from above.
	There are still hawks and eagles and things of that nature.
	So the best that you can do, really, is to reduce the prospect of losing your flock.
	You know, this is part of what farm life is like, and most people have forgotten it.
	Me too, you know, and so I'm relearning it.
	This is what we're all going to have to relearn.
	That's right. Yeah, we lost our flocks in the middle of the day.
	We let them free-range during the day.
	We lost one flock that way.
	But, you know, we've had coyotes attack and we've had hawks attack and we got a ton of hawks out here in Tennessee where we are.
	So, yeah, that is that is a struggle trying to keep these things alive.
	But it is going to be a struggle for us to try to navigate through this continuing.
	We got the supply chain after they threw the wrench in it.
	I mean, it's just bouncing back and forth and breaking in all these different places.
	And part of it, a big part of this disappearance of the eggs.
	A lot of people who are egg farmers, the egg industry are saying it's a lot of it is the supply chain.
	Can't get feed to them. Can't get the other stuff out there.
	There's so many things that they've broken.
	Thank you for joining us.
	Eric Peters, EP Autos.
	Always a great site to see what is going on politically, with liberty, and with transportation.
	Thank you, Eric. I appreciate it.
	You bet. Thank you, David. The common man.
	They created common core to dumb down our children.
	They created common past to track and control us.
	Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing.
	And the communist future.
	They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary.
	But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God.
	That is what we have in common.
	That is what they want to take away.
	Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation.
	They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us.
	It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide.
