Using free speech to free minds.
You're listening to The David Knight Show.
As the clock strikes 13, it's Friday the 24th of March, year of our Lord, 2023, day 1107 of the emergency.
And as we look at the unfolding Manhattan melodrama, President Trump is now criticizing DeSantis over COVID policies.
I think this is something of a glass house to throw stones in, and it is probably one of the most hypocritical things I have ever seen in my life.
That is really Trump's Achilles heel.
Everything that he did in 2020.
We're going to take a look today at some changes in the political landscape as well as an update on CBDC, what is happening with the pharmaceutical companies, and the latest in our march towards Sodom and our slouch towards Gomorrah.
We'll be right back.
Stay with us.
Well, let's begin with your news and with let's begin with your news and with a Santar.
This is from Babylon Bee.
Government demands that TikTok stop spying on Americans because that's their job.
That's it. That's basically what's going on with 5G as well.
Trump demands that China not have 5G because they'll be spying on all of us.
And that's the government's job.
Now stay off our turf, as Babylon Bee, quoting in their satire Mitch McConnell.
Now can the federal government be expected to effectively spy on all of our citizens if we've got this TikTok app and the Chinese Communist Party is getting in our way trying to do the same thing?
If anybody's going to be violating the privacy of the American people, It's got to be us.
Well, that's exactly what.
Everything they're doing is oriented toward.
The White House is quick to weigh in on the controversy as well.
It is the policy of this administration to keep spying on American people here at home where it belongs, said the White House press secretary.
Yeah, I guess you could say that both Biden and Trump have a spy on American first policy.
Well, things are getting really hot in France.
Take a look at what is happening there and what began as a pushback against changing the pension age from 62 to 64.
And I think it was...
I don't know. I can't gauge what is there.
It just doesn't make any sense to me that people wouldn't push back against all the COVID nonsense, except that they have been completely scared to death by propaganda campaigns.
It was humiliating. It was dictatorial.
And the fact that this was done without their elected representatives, done by Macron, who has, like all the other world leaders, grown accustomed to governing by edicts and mandates, that is perhaps part of this.
Certainly, There's nothing on the government's side to keep them afraid.
They're not afraid of France going bankrupt, for example.
They're afraid of themselves going bankrupt.
And this pushback against it is part of that, as well as their anger that this was done without any representation.
This is what it looks like.
This is the Orwellian dream, a boot stomping on your face forever.
Open warfare by armed police, kicking and hitting anybody that they can get a hold of inside.
It's just amazing to watch this kind of stuff happen.
Just amazing. And let's take a look at some more here.
Here's some more police.
Look at that. It's just amazing.
I saw it in Greece as well.
This is a global training of police.
They'll do the same thing here when the time comes and when there's economic unrest in the streets that is coming.
This is the aftermath of it.
The overturned cars and the burning cars right there.
As you see, France burning.
More burning cars down there.
And it's not just the cars that are burning.
They set fire to some buildings as well.
So late into the night last night, this was still going on.
Still had fires that were out of control as of late last night in France.
Tens of thousands blocked public transportation schools and oil refineries.
Police used tear gas, water cannons, flashbangs, batons.
At least one unit of firefighters switched sides, as a matter of fact.
Here are some of the people.
This is put out by some people as police giving up.
But they don't seem to be as heavily armored as the police.
They do have knee pads and shin guards and things from their shoulder down to their arms and helmets, some of them.
So I don't know if they're cops or if they're firefighters.
But they're getting an applause because they just walked away.
Said, we've had enough of this.
So that was reported as...
As a unit of firefighters by the press, I'll go with their characterization of it.
It's war in Paris. No time to post.
Take care of yourself, said one person posting out there.
So, 190 fires have been set in Paris.
190. 50 of them were still burning as of 10 p.m.
local time. The interior minister blamed the extreme left.
And the black bloc anarchists.
Yeah, the mostly peaceful Antifa, right?
Though heavily criticized due to the harsh coronavirus lockdowns and mandates, Macron easily won re-election in 2022.
Yeah, they're basically, and they say, you know, they're getting what they deserve when they did that, but probably they're, as here, the elections are rigged, controlled, and counted by the people who matter.
He defeated Marine Le Pen by 17-point margin, and it was the lowest turnout since 1969.
And I think that that does speak to apathy that is there.
As we look at America, we now have, and I've talked to Christian Gomez at the New American in the past.
He stays on the beat of this Article 5 Constitutional Convention, which is a real fantasy dream of Mark Levin and many other people.
They want to have a Constitutional Convention.
They say, well, you know, we just can't balance the budget if we don't have a constitutional convention and change the Constitution to require a balanced budget.
Why do you think they would abide by that since they ignore everything else that's in the Constitution?
The problem in Washington is not the Constitution.
We had a country that was doing just fine.
Until we have this crop of faithless electors.
They say that about the Electoral College.
I think we have faithless representatives.
Faithless to the Constitution.
Faithless to what they told us when they wanted to get elected.
Faithless to protect us.
From all these things that are being rapidly assembled and thrown at us to enslave us, from CBDC to digital ID to all the rest of this stuff, the mandates, the lockdown orders, the executive orders that are still there, they do nothing about that.
Instead, they hold these hearings.
Let's talk about TikTok.
You want to talk about TikTok when the Federal Reserve is rolling out CBDC? What's the matter with you people?
Well, it's all about grandstanding.
They don't do anything.
They don't pass any laws.
They let their bureaucracy rule us with rules.
Rules with which we don't have any due process, presumption of innocence, or protection against excessive fines.
And while that is all happening, they're doing grandstanding for the cameras, and they never do anything even about what their hearings are about.
It's pathetic. It absolutely is pathetic.
That's why I say, forget about Washington, especially the presidency.
It is important to understand what these people are about, how they're going to be coming at us.
But look, you're going to have gun control by executive order.
You had it started under Trump.
Biden is ramping it up now, using that Trump precedent.
And you better figure out how you're going to stop it at the state level.
I'm sad to see that the nullification bill did not make it in Tennessee, as I reported yesterday.
Didn't make it out of committee.
May come back. It should come back.
But whether or not there is a formal process to review each and every law or judicial decision or executive order or treaty that the federal government throws at us to take away our freedoms and deny us our God-given rights, whether or not that exists as a formal process, which is what that was about.
You see over and over again that the people care about it.
And if we let the representatives know that we care about it, you see that they nullify things like marijuana prohibition.
There's a lot of movements to nullify these gun control laws.
And it just needs to be broadened.
Because, you know, the judiciary is nullifying all of these things all the time.
They nullify bureaucratic rules.
They nullify congressional laws.
Presumably, they nullify treaties, although I can't recall that being done lately, even coming up.
But, you know, we say the judiciary can do it.
Well, every branch of the government can nullify the other branches.
That's what the separation of powers is about.
And the states and the people...
We can nullify what the federal government is doing.
Even if the federal government, all three branches of the federal government agree, we can nullify it.
So when you talk about Article 5 convention, you're talking about something that is incredibly dangerous and ought to be rejected completely.
Because once you go to a constitutional convention, everything is on the table.
Mark Levin should be telling you that, but he's telling you just the opposite.
And so we've now had a Texas congressman, Jody Arrington, Pushing a resolution that if passed would open up the entire Constitution for revision.
I guess that is...
I don't know if that's a guy or a woman.
J-O-D-E-Y is the first name.
So this would supposedly propose a balanced budget amendment, but everything is on the table.
And even in this resolution, a resolution doesn't mean anything, even if it were to pass.
The process is that the states...
Have to call for a constitutional convention.
Two-thirds of states have to say they want a constitutional convention.
And then if two-thirds of states want a constitutional convention, that's it.
They're out of the process. And then it gets turned over to Congress, and Congress can call a constitutional convention and run the whole thing.
You really want Congress rewriting the Constitution?
What an absurd idea.
Mark Levin wrote a book pushing that kind of stuff.
You ought to be laughed off the stage because that's exactly what it is.
It's a stage for him, for all these guys.
So, you know, any amendments could be proposed on that.
Very dangerous process.
And, you know, good news is it doesn't have any chance at this point of making it through.
Last time he put it up, or she put it up last year, five co-sponsors.
Right now there are zero co-sponsors.
And Thomas Massey, right as usual, always right on every issue that I've seen him on.
I haven't... St.
Thomas Massey wrong on anything that I can recall, which is really unusual, you know.
And I had a lot of people, when I talked about DeSantis, I said, pay attention to DeSantis, put this out.
He had a press conference about CBDC. Everybody is ignoring that.
They're talking about one little sentence that he said about Trump when he was pushed, because the only thing that the press wanted to talk to him about.
Was what he was going to do about Trump.
And, you know, so no questions about CBDC. No coverage by any media.
The Hill covered it, as I said, at the very bottom right of their website.
Fox News didn't cover it.
None of the conservative press covered it.
Of course, none of the establishment press.
None of the financial press. It was covered by the Bitcoin press, the crypto press, I should say.
But other than that, nobody covered what he had to say.
And so, you know, I mention all of that because a lot of people said, well, don't jump on the DeSantis bandwagon.
I'm not a bandwagon for anybody.
I've said over and over again, and I've played the clips over and over again for years, of Ron Wyden getting James Clapper to perjure himself He was under oath giving congressional testimony about things that were of vital importance to all America.
The fact that they were spying on all Americans.
That's why, you know, we don't want TikTok spying on America.
We want James Clapper doing it.
And Brennan. Right?
And Hayden. We want those guys spying on Americans.
You know, nobody, not even Ron Wyden, who asked him the question.
Are you spying on all Americans?
Well, no, Senator, not intentionally.
Worst poker face you've ever seen in your life.
He lied under oath.
And then I remember reporting it when the five-year statute of limitations expired.
Within a couple of weeks, you had the Snowden leaks that showed that he was lying.
Michael Hayden, who has been the former director of the NSA as well as the CIA, said, why blame Ron Wyden?
He and all those staffers there knew what we were doing.
Why do you make James Clapper lie about that?
It's like, what kind of perverted logic do these people operate under?
You knew he was violating the law.
Why did you make him commit perjury as well?
Shame on you, Ron Wyden.
And I've congratulated Ron Wyden for at least that.
And like I said, Ron Wyden didn't want to follow up and come after him for perjury.
But that's the only thing, the only thing I have ever agreed with, with Ron Wyden.
And so we just take these people issue by issue.
But when it comes to Thomas Massey, I pretty much agree with him on everything.
Like I said, he's my congressman in Washington.
He says this, I think an Article 5 convention is a bad idea and could be disastrous for our country.
How many state legislatures stood up to the illegal and unconstitutional acts of their governors?
During COVID. And of course we could say to the unconstitutional illegal acts of their President Trump during COVID as well.
So, the Biden judicial nominee that was just brought for confirmation, and we've seen this happening over and over again.
I've played clips for you in the past of people who were questioned.
John Kennedy, the Republican out of Louisiana, questioned him on some basic legal stuff, and this was very basic.
I've seen him question some other judges one thing after the other.
They didn't know anything. But they were kind of technical.
But you would expect if they're sitting judges now and they're going to be promoted, you would expect that they would know these types of things.
They're not just gotcha questions.
As Zero Hedge said, when we saw the questioning from the senator about Biden's appointment to the FAA, those were very technical questions, but you could argue that Some of them were things that somebody who's going to be involved with flying ought to know some of what they're looking at.
Of course, they don't talk to Boudiguet about how to fill a pothole or anything like that.
But in this particular case, this guy has been a judge since 2018.
He's been a federal judge.
And the Biden administration has decided that they're going to promote him.
And so he asked him how he would analyze a Brady motion, a reference to the Brady rule that has been there since 1963.
Supreme Court case, Brady v.
Maryland. It requires prosecutors to give defendants information the government holds that could aid in their defense, you know, like the January of the Six prisoners.
And, of course, this just happened.
They just invoked the Brady rule.
But wait a minute, you've got all this footage you wouldn't show us and it's exculpatory.
That's a violation of the Brady Rule.
And Zero Hedge says, even your humble writer, without any formal legal education, knew what Brady requires.
Simply from previous readings about various trials, others have learned it from TV dramas.
The Brady Rule has made appearances in about a dozen episodes of Law& Order and Law& Order SVU alone.
However, Judge Cruz paused, looked up in the air for a few seconds, and then said, In my four and a half years on the bench, I don't believe I've had the occasion to address a Brady motion.
He's already a judge.
When asked, Well, do you know what a Brady motion is?
He sidestepped by repeating nearly verbatim what he'd just said.
In an attempt to jog his memory, Kennedy said, do you recall the U.S. Supreme Court case Brady v.
Maryland? Cruz merely claimed that he recalled the name of the case.
Well, that name sounds somewhat familiar.
Things then took a darkly humorous turn when Kennedy asked what the Supreme Court held in that case.
Cruz said, I believe the Brady case involved something regarding the Second Amendment.
Sarah Brady and her movement, right?
Well, at least he didn't go to the sitcom, The Brady Bunch.
Wasn't that a program on TV? Maybe that's it.
Maybe he watches The Brady Bunch instead of even Law& Order as a judge.
He's not even interested in watching TV courtroom dramas, let alone reading Supreme Court cases.
But, you know, he should be a federal judge.
He appears to be a diversity pick.
He is black.
Fair-minded observers can reasonably and emphatically cringe when legislators ask nominees exceedingly technical questions, as I pointed out, the FAA hearings and things like that.
But the Brady questions were nothing like that.
Some people commented on social media, I'm not particularly a criminal lawyer guy, but And never written a Brady motion, never read one, never argued one, never heard one argued.
I've never even read the case.
But I know the Brady rule off the top of my head.
I don't understand.
Now, he wouldn't know that.
It's one of these things like, you know, Miranda.
You know, read him as Miranda or Miranda eyes him or whatever, right?
I mean, everybody knows that.
They haven't read the case.
But everybody knows what that's about.
Brady is the same way. You cannot hide evidence, if the government has it, that would show that you're innocent.
Another one says, uh-oh, Cruz, a magistrate judge in Denver who's been selected for a district court seat there, couldn't define a Brady motion.
Or how to analyze it at his confirmation hearing on Wednesday.
And again, you know, when I mentioned the January 6th thing, because of the video that was shown on the Tucker Carlson show given to him by Kevin McCarthy, you had immediately the lawyers for some of the defendants in the January 6th trials that are going on right now file a Brady motion.
And they said this is plainly exculpatory, And this was hidden from us.
And one person commented and said, how apropos that a Biden nominee wouldn't know what a Brady motion is.
When your administration prosecutes political opponents, you really don't care about Brady violations or exculpatory evidence.
I guess the ACLU doesn't care to weigh in on Brady motions at this time either.
And they point out that even though he doesn't know some basic things, he has gotten endorsements from the Black Bar Association, the Asian Pacific Bar Association, the Hispanic Bar Association, and a former Teamsters Union rep.
And in a letter submitted to the Senate Judiciary Committee, a group of civil rights lawyers Explicitly touted his skin color as a qualifier.
Let's change direction here.
Let's talk about something that is directly affecting a lot of people.
I usually weigh in on gambling.
I've mentioned a couple of times that my dad, we were passing through Vegas on our way to Disneyland before, you know, we lived in Tampa.
And, you know, we were only about an hour from Disney World.
And when it first opened up, we used to go there a lot.
It's very nice to go there.
All you'd have to do is pay to park and you could walk into the park for free.
If you wanted to ride rides, you could get tickets and you buy the ticket book.
And if you didn't use all your tickets, you could come back another day, especially if you only lived an hour away, which is the way it was at that time.
But we were curious to see, you know, the Disney World when it opened up.
And so in 1961, we drove cross-country to go to Disneyland.
And we went through Las Vegas.
And I remember when I was six years old, my dad, you know, and I mentioned this just the other day.
We were talking about what is appropriate.
And the Hyatt Regency, should they have their liquor license pulled because they did Drag Queen Storytime Hour for kids?
Let kids attend.
And it wasn't a storytime hour.
It was a Christmas special with Rudolph, who was vulgarly dressed and a mandir, as they pointed out.
And... And I said, look, look at what they do in casinos, right?
You don't even, you know, you got to like quickly look and walk around the perimeter or something like that to see people gambling and use it as an object lesson.
I did it with my sons when they were young as well.
Gambling is a big problem though.
Gambling addiction now through sports betting is really hitting a lot of young men.
They say sports betting is now fully legal in 36 states.
And the states are making a lot of money from it.
They tax it. Nevada pulled in more than $61 million in taxes in 2020.
New Jersey, $118 million.
Pennsylvania, $124 million.
That was in 2021.
And now it's gotten so big...
That in just the first three months of 2023, they're already making more than they did for the entire year two years ago.
It's exploding. New Jersey had already earned $72 million in tax revenue.
New York had made $209 million.
And Pennsylvania had already taken in $58 million in just the first three months.
According to Roundhill Investments, Americans placed over $93 billion in legal sports bets in 2022 alone.
I mean, they're even talking about putting sports bets on professional wrestling, which is scripted like the elections.
In 2021, the most recent year for which data is available, calls to the helpline.
Run by the National Council on Problem Gambling, a gaming industry-supported group.
It's kind of like buying a carbon credit, right?
Oh, well, you know, please give me an indulgence for my sin.
We're fleecing people by the hundreds of billions of dollars.
So let's put a little bit of money into a gambling addiction fund.
So the calls to that helpline rose by 43%.
Texts increased by 53%.
Chats jumped 84%.
And so Newsweek did an article about it.
And what I thought was interesting was they said, you know, why is this a problem for young adults, especially?
Well, the physiology, they said, of young adults who are still a work in development, it adds to the risk that sports betting will become problematic for them.
Young people, particularly those under the age of 25, still have underdeveloped brains that make them predisposed to addiction.
Particularly gambling addiction.
Well, addiction of any kind.
And so we look at this and say, yeah, we acknowledge that for some things, don't we?
But we deny it for other things.
So if we're saying that the brains of those under 25 and under aren't fully developed physiologically, not to mention a life experience where they can easily be gaslighted and scammed by other people, But even physiologically,
immature and capable of making decisions is one of the reasons why we have the laws about certain activities prohibited to young people, like alcohol, tobacco, voting, and, you know, maybe mutilating and sterilizing your body, you know, things like that. How in the world can we put all that aside, the manipulation about gender of these people?
That is a lot more prevalent than gambling.
I don't see, every time you look at any entertainment, I don't see gambling being pushed to us by Hollywood.
You know, successful gamblers, too.
They'll all be successful.
Nobody ever loses.
The house loses all the time, you know, in a situation.
That's the way they'd have to do it if you had a parallel to what's going on with LGBT. You would have to push gambling.
You would have at least two or three gambling characters in each one, and the story would have to be modified to squeeze that, shoehorn that in.
And then all the gamblers would win all the time.
And then you would have the schools, you know, teaching kids in kindergarten about blackjack and poker and all the rest of this stuff, right?
You'd have little roulette wheels in pre-kindergarten because, you know, they just watched the thing go around.
And, you know, that would be the analogy.
That's not happening.
And yet it's still very, very powerful.
Think about how powerful this LGBT stuff is.
Because then you're not just playing on people's judgment.
You're playing on, and it's not the pre-kindergarten kids and the kids in kindergarten.
They don't have any sexual urges.
It gets even more dangerous when you get into junior high school and high school.
When other things start kicking in.
And that's why you look at what Florida is doing.
They made it illegal from K through third grade.
And now they're coming back and saying, you know, maybe we need to modify that.
We didn't include pre-K. And so the teacher's saying, well, you didn't say anything about me doing pre-kindergarten.
You know, I can start these little kids at three years old.
I can start them with all this rainbow unicorn stuff and the gender bread man and all these other things at pre-K. So now they're saying, well, maybe we ought to extend this and make it pre-K through 8th grade.
The Florida School Board, which is not a legislative body, it writes rules.
It's a bureaucracy that writes rules.
They're more rational about this.
Saying, you know, pre-K through 12th grade.
In other words, not at all are you going to talk to people.
And that's the right approach, has been the right approach from day one.
I criticized the Florida legislature and DeSantis for only, you know, doing a little bit of it.
It's like, oh, okay, so once the kids get in 4th grade, you can start all this stuff with them?
All this pornography and all this gender gaslighting, you can start that in 4th grade?
You know, because you're 10 years old, you can certainly handle it, right?
This stuff is more damaging, more dangerous than anything you'd ever see portrayed in a PG-13 film.
Anyway, it's growing very fast.
It's grown 30% from 2018 to 2021, and it's really exploded since then.
The UK has recently noted that they see 400 suicides a year linked to gambling.
Some 55,000 gambling addicts are young men between the ages of 11 and To 16 years of age.
It's about time that we start to recap the idea that children should not have rights.
Children should not have rights because children don't have judgment.
Children should not have rights because rights come with responsibility.
Rights are for adults.
Rights are for parents.
The whole children's rights movement came out of the UN. And 10 years ago, I was doing videos opposing that for an organization.
The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, signed by every country except the United States, but being enforced in the United States through the Department of Education, through the judiciary, in a de facto way.
Not by adopting the treaty, but they do it anyway.
Do it anyway. And you know, when we...
We look at the gambling thing.
I mean, frankly, I just don't understand it.
And another thing I don't understand is drug addiction.
And, you know, I just, I used to say that to my friends in engineering.
I said, I just, you know, talking about how I oppose the war on drugs.
I said, I didn't need to have a police coming to my house to keep me off of any drugs.
I didn't need to, and I said, I don't like locking people up for life with mandatory minimum stuff.
I said, it's not a law enforcement problem.
And I said, you know, and I've never had anybody, I said, it's amazing.
I've never had anybody, you know, except in situations where it was rampant, you know, playing in bands and stuff like that, even offer me stuff.
And they laughed and they said, well, it's probably because everybody thought you were a narc.
But take a look at this.
We've got a new drug now.
They mix a tranquilizer with fentanyl.
And it turns people into absolute zombies, just staring up at the sky.
It's amazing. They just freeze in position.
And it is very, very serious what it does.
It eats your skin away.
I mean, it really is like some kind of zombie apocalypse now in a lot of these cities.
Take a look at this video.
This guy is trying to talk to kids, or adults even, I guess.
Adults who think and act like kids.
Don't do this.
It's called TRANK. TRANK is the new hot drug.
And TRANK is zombifying people's bodies.
That's what Sam, 28 years old, told Sky News.
Or until nine months ago, I never had wounds.
Now there are holes in my legs and my feet.
That's scary as shit, bro.
Yeah, the New York City Health Department reported that 2,600 New Yorkers died of overdoses in 2021.
And most people are saying that that could have been TRANK-related.
People with substance abuse disorders who get hooked on Trank believe the emerging substance killed, quote, any kind of joy that came with getting high.
It takes the fun out of getting high.
A junkie said it takes the fun out of getting high.
Why would you do it? It's kind of like, remember when synthetic weed first came out and that dude ate that other guy's face?
It's like that, but it's every time someone does it.
So if someone's offering you Trank, just say no.
Say, I'm cool on the Trank, bro.
You got any weed? Stay away from Trank, kids.
Well, I'm not endorsing the weed either.
But yeah, we don't need to be locking people up for that.
But look, you know, that's one of the things I said, unfortunately, about it, is that in terms of drug prohibition, you can't stop people from doing destructive stuff.
People have always been able to find drugs that are destructive.
The problem is, now that we've got prohibitions been going on for more than 50 years, With the illegal war on drugs, for which they never passed a congressional amendment, ask yourself why everybody went to the trouble of passing the 18th amendment to prohibit alcohol, and then the 21st amendment to make it legal again.
Why did they go to all that trouble?
Well, you could just say, you could get somebody in a bureaucracy, you know, like the DEA or whatever, saying Alcohol is illegal.
Just like that. I say so.
It's now illegal. Well, because we used to have people, we used to have in this country, respect for the Constitution.
And we don't have that anymore, largely thanks to the drug war, to the IRS, to the ATF, all these different agencies.
But when you look at the efforts about Prohibition, look, just like we're talking about gambling, just like we're talking about Trank here, this is a spiritual problem.
The medical problem comes after the spiritual problem.
This is not fundamentally...
This is absolutely not a law enforcement problem.
And I've talked to retired police officers who used to be part of the drug enforcement mechanism.
One organization that is all retired lawyers, judges, police officers, district attorneys.
Pretty much all of them retired because...
If they speak out against it, even if they're opposed to it in their job, they would immediately be purged out, as we saw people getting purged out for speaking against the COVID regulations coming from Fauci and Trump in 2020.
So, you know, they point out this is not a law enforcement issue.
And if we look at 50 years of history, it hasn't even worked.
Not only is it unconstitutional, But it is not pragmatic.
It hasn't worked for 50 years.
Instead, it's giving us things like Trank.
You get more concentrated forms, whatever it is that you want to prohibit.
And that's what's going on here.
And so, as Newsweek is talking about this, they say, in spite of all their efforts and the best intentions of the administration, the fentanyl crisis is getting tremendously worse.
Now, it's not their best intentions.
It is self-serving.
You know, the DEA likes to have the war on drugs, and the federal government likes to have the war on drugs, and it opens up a lot of possibilities to them, and it's allowed them to do civil asset forfeiture, which they've now extended from the IRS to the DEA to many other things.
They like that power.
They like any kind of crisis that gives them that kind of power.
That's not good intentions, and it hasn't done anything.
It's actually flesh-eating, as he was showing some pictures there.
It's been seized now in 48 out of 50 states so far.
You'll never be able to stop any of this stuff by law enforcement.
Never.
Never.
This is a spiritual problem.
And as we see this type of stuff, people doing things that are eating their flesh, not even giving them a pleasant high, We look at what is the level of depravity that we have in our society that people would turn to this.
People who inject these mixtures of the tranquilizer plus fentanyl Can develop severe wounds, including necrosis, rotting of human tissue, that may lead to amputation.
That reminds me of all the meth stuff.
You'd see the meth mouth and all that, you know, eating the teeth away.
Cocaine. Some people...
Doing it so much they cause their nose to collapse.
It's just an obsession.
Well, I'm going to take a break here, but before I do, I just want to mention real quickly, it's an interesting video up on LifeSite News.
They did an interview with a guy who is a Finnish professor.
And he is somebody who is an epidemiologist.
He's worked in these, you know, global health issues.
And for years he's been rubbing up against the Green Movement and these other people and reading what they had to say.
And he says, yeah, something's just not right here.
And so he's come out talking about the occultism and the insanity.
Of the people involved in this, of the elites who are running these types of things.
30-year research of Professor Mikko Paunio.
I guess that's how his name is pronounced.
No Stranger to State-Level Gatherings presents a body of work which reveals that the environmental policies of the UN, the Club of Rome, and the World Economic Forum are esoteric nonsense.
He presented his findings to a Finnish audience back in October of 2022 in a presentation that was entitled Occult Power.
He said the justification of the UN and the World Economic Forum's anti-enlightenment global policies aimed at subjugating people are dressed in the form of science, even though they're based on esotericism and the occult, and are therefore only the irrational thinking even though they're based on esotericism and the occult, and are therefore In other words, this is kind of, you know, one person's, you know, esotericism is one person's view of how they see the world.
And again, we go back to the transgender issue.
We're now elevating that and elevating it above normal thinking.
Well, this person thinks they're a cat or they think they're in the wrong body or whatever.
He's an epidemiologist.
He's worked with a lot of different public health institutions in his native Finland, as well as a brief spell at the World Bank.
Currently senior medical officer in the Ministry of Social Affairs and Health of Finland.
His work as a scientific and policy advisor has seen him involved in state-level meetings across Europe and the United States.
Because of that, he says he's opposed adamantly to the crazy climate cult whose neo-Malthusian ideas are a point of principle among the technocratic elite.
He said, when I was a young medical researcher, I became one of the secretaries of the Prime Minister's Energy Committee in the aftermath of Chernobyl.
I, myself, and other secretaries had to read an endless handwritten stream of consciousness from a committee member called Penty Malaska, professor of future studies at the Turku University of Economics and Business.
He said that piqued his interest.
And so he began a long journey to what he calls, quote, the new old nature pantheism that was born in the UN framework and its partners in the Club of Rome and the World Economic Forum.
Club of Rome, as he points out, founded in 1968 with a seminal publication, Limits to Growth.
The book was a milestone in modern earth worship, framing humanity as a handicap born by a suffering planet.
And of course, They, you know, Lovelock in the UK came up with his Gaia theory.
You know, oh, you know, Gaia was Mother Earth in Greek mythology.
It is a sentient being, they believe.
And human beings are a virus.
They got more specific about it.
You know, we are killing Mother Earth.
That's the way they present it. That was a club of Rome.
He said, We're attracted to the original occult thought of the theosophy.
That was something that was very big in elitist intellectual circles around the beginning of the 20th century.
He says this religion has largely replaced Christianity in Western countries, the religion of green Christianity, You know, earth worship.
Nature pantheism specifically draws from the quote wisdom of theosophy, which is based on occultism and esotericism of the world's most famous con artist, Madame Blavatsky, who claimed to have discovered the lost truth that unites world religions.
Yeah, there was another... There was a guy who was heavily into it as a composer.
He wrote some really weird music, and he thought that if he could get this performed up on a mountain or something, it's like in the 1920s, you know, that it's going to hail the end of the world or something.
I mean, these people were truly nuts.
And, you know, you can tie back Aleister Crowley and a lot of these people back to all of this.
So he's careful to distinguish between esoteric, meaning personal, and occult, meaning hidden.
His contention is that the cult of personal fantasy, see this is where the transgender stuff comes in as well, whose private practices are reflected in a worldview detached from reality, that that is endemic in the ruling elite already, and they're pushing it out to us now.
And again, the next step in all of this is going to be virtual reality as they get the infrastructure put in place.
The infrastructure of tyranny, the IOT. If this is indeed the case, it would help to explain why so many of our leaders seem concerned only with themselves and why their beliefs and their policies often seem to have little connection to the observable reality.
Let's see, what leader could we say that seems to only be concerned with themselves?
Hmm. Pretty much all of them, right?
But especially one that comes to mind who isn't capable of acting except in his own perceived self-interest.
Deeply wounded narcissist who will act in his own perceived self-interest or out of revenge, and that's it.
Schwab talks about the fusion of the digital, physical, and biological worlds through technology, he says, that is nothing more than science fiction.
He says it doesn't exist.
Nor will it ever exist.
It's just a cranky old man's cranky thinking based on inner space flights and ideas that he got from occult rituals.
And as a matter of fact, I was at a conference once where there were some young guys who went to...
Let's see, what is that thing they have out in the desert?
Not Burning Man, yeah. They went to Burning Man.
They said there's all these Silicon Valley CEOs, and they're in a, you know, tent, and they're doing these hallucinogenic drugs, and they were telling everybody, yeah, I'm channeling some new tech and all this, and they really believed it.
You know, whether it's true or not, might have been true.
Might have gotten them in touch with some, the spiritual side that is going to enable them.
I don't know. Anyway, so...
That is his position as he's been a close observer of all of this.
He says, thanks to the unconditional support given to the World Economic Forum by the mainstream media, their insane global policies that are meant to impoverish us, to aggravate environmental problems, have gained ground in all Western institutions, including Protestant churches and the Catholic Church, he says. And that's the problem.
That's why I said, you know, a real problem is that we don't have a vision anymore that aligns with our true purpose, that aligns with what God has created us for.
We are supposed to be the light of the world, but we don't have any light that we're giving anybody in terms of what our purpose is.
When they say that mankind is a virus, We have to say, no, mankind was given dominion over the earth.
Not to exploit it, but to be a good steward of it.
But we don't pull back and worship it and say, don't touch it, don't touch it.
It's sacred or whatever, which is the way everything has changed.
I mean, just in the simple stuff as I talked about a couple of days ago of forestry.
Don't take the dead wood out.
Leave it there. Well, you burn down the forest if you do that.
That's not exercising dominion.
That's not exercising stewardship.
That is a kind of superstitious paganism of worshipping earth.
Don't touch it. Don't touch it at all.
No. We have to oppose that.
And we have to point out that we should be doing stewardship instead of superstition.
And we need to see the world as it is, instead of pretending that humans have no purpose, that there is no God, and that the earth is the thing that is sentient.
His work is not simply dedicated to laughing at buffoons and debunking their false credentials.
It's a serious attempt to contribute to the counter-narrative.
Of a technocratic managerialism whose evil is rendered more comprehensible if we look at its occult inspirations.
If you understand where these people are coming from from a worldview, then it makes a lot more sense what they're doing.
Otherwise, it's just like, oh, these people are crazy.
I mean, look at Richard Levine.
Oh, he's nuts. Or look at Sam Brenton.
Oh, he's nuts. No, you have to understand where these guys are coming from.
You have to understand what is controlling them.
What has taken their mind captive and where they want to take us and say, you're not going to take us, you're not going to take our kids.
We the people, ordinary workers and entrepreneurs, he says, who love their country and their family must wake up and defend enlightenment, freedom, modern society, only the pursuit of the good, starting from one's own starting point.
You start with yourself.
And you don't just examine yourself.
You start with yourself as being an extension of God on this earth and get your relationship right with God.
Get right with Christ. Get a new start.
And then try to look at this from a biblical lens to understand where you fit in all of this.
And then you'll be able to help other people around you and your family and that type of thing.
So we have to start from one's own starting points.
We can displace these human experiments conducted from abroad.
Finland, as a society in its own right, and as historically dominated by other nations, Is now a solid platform for some kind of crazy experiments.
Unless our decision makers are aware of the enormous dangers associated with them.
Well, let me just say.
The decision makers are you.
You are the decision maker.
It begins and ends with you.
You don't have to have the people at the top.
Be on the forefront of this.
Usually when the right thing is done, it's done because the people, the grassroots level, bring these people along kicking and screaming.
All right, we're going to take a quick break, and we'll be right back.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Welcome back. Let's talk a little bit about some of the people who are truly nutso.
Beginning with Rachel Levine being criticized as we had a clip surfaced.
I was going to talk about this yesterday.
It surfaced, I think, two days ago.
Somebody found him at a conference yesterday.
Where he was saying, yes, yes, it took me a very long time to transition.
But the good thing about it was that because of that delay, I was able to have kids.
Here's a clip. But I have no regrets because if I transitioned when I was young, I wouldn't have my children.
I can't imagine a life without my children.
And so every experience led me to here.
And so how could I regret that?
So if he transitioned when he was young, he wouldn't have kids because that's about sterilization of minors, which is what he's pushing.
He's pushing the sterilization of minors.
It's not just hypocrisy.
It's pure evil. So he goes by the name of Rachel now, but his real name is Richard.
And so here is Dick Levine when he was with a family.
He was with his wife and two kids.
He's so glad that he didn't change anything.
Until after he had kids, and now here he is when he's not Dick.
There he is today.
There he is today. At least he's got his hair pulled back instead of the mess that he usually has there.
So, he says people are ripping him online for pure hypocrisy.
It is. After having admitted to waiting to have children...
Before gender transitioning, despite currently pushing to normalize it, for very young children.
And hormone therapies, mutilation, all the rest of that stuff, that's gender affirming.
Those people shouldn't have, that generation shouldn't have kids.
And you understand where this is coming from as well, right?
All, just as I was talking about.
This esotericism, focus on yourself and this imaginary world that you live in.
Using children to affirm your fantasies.
That's how sick this all is.
And then to sterilize the next generation, because this is all about depopulation.
It always has been.
If I transitioned when I was young, then I wouldn't have my children.
And I can't imagine a life without my children.
But he can push children.
That your children have a life without children.
During the Pediatric Grand Rounds session last month, he claimed that children who had their gender confusion affirmed, quote, actually have excellent mental health outcomes.
Well, that's a bold-faced lie.
Heritage Foundation has released a study proving what we already know, that it increases suicide.
We just had a guy who was the poster child for United Airlines.
They did a video about him, about a one-and-a-half-minute video, transitioned as a girl, and just committed suicide.
They're driving people to suicide.
The poster person.
And wrote a suicide note.
I'm sorry. I just, you know, everybody's got all this pressure on me and I just can't be everything that everybody wants me to be.
This poor person was driven to suicide.
Driven to transitioning by all this peer pressure and pressure from people above.
And corporations like United pushing this kind of stuff on them.
We never had a situation.
I don't need a Heritage Foundation study.
To tell me when you see 30% of girls thinking about suicide and a very large percentage of them actually trying to commit suicide.
Or you see this high-profile person, transgender guy or girl, a guy who, you know, I don't know if he had operations, mutilating operations or what the issue was.
But anyway, some people on social media said, so this guy, Levine, Pushing as hard as he can for you to be cool with chemical castration and with surgical mutilation of your child is glad that he waited to start his transition because if he'd done it sooner, he wouldn't have any children.
Another one. So, in 2019, this idiot is admitting as a transgender woman that children should not be making decisions to take meds or have surgeries, which can't be reversed, or they might regret it.
But today he wants to pass a law that allows children to make these decisions.
Confused? This is why you leave children alone.
You let them explore their lives until they're fully mentally formed and can make a true decision of what they want to be.
Keep your hands off our children.
Again, I think, you know, if you were to look at this whole thing about gambling, that's why I talked about it.
It is sad that people get addicted to all kinds of crazy stuff.
A lot of people get addicted to money.
And a lot of people get addicted to all the usual stuff.
Alcohol, tobacco, various drugs, gambling.
Sex is one of the things people get addicted to.
Look at all the different ways that people get addicted to things.
You look at the things that people worship.
It's been said our heart is an idol factory.
Looking for things to worship, that's part of it.
But, you know, the fact that the calls to intervene about gambling because even up to 25 people don't have the right kind of judgment and yet they want to come after kids pre-kindergarten, it's pathetic.
Maybe you should illustrate it by putting in gambling casinos.
Turn kindergarten schools into gambling casinos.
The Heritage Foundation study showed that puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, that being easier for minors to access has greatly increased youth suicide rates, which is exactly the opposite of why they say we've got to teach this in school because if we don't, The kids will commit suicide. Well, it wasn't being taught in schools until just recently.
And if you look at when they started teaching it, it sent suicide rates sky high.
While one popular puberty-blocking drug, Lupron, has been used to chemically castrate sex offenders, the FDA has warned that two of the most popular puberty-blocking medications may carry a risk of brain swelling and permanent vision loss.
But hey, let's not worry about that.
You can do that.
They'll inject people with the mRNA, so they'll do anything.
So, you know, when we look at it, it is absolutely insane.
Last year, Levine claimed gender-affirming care.
That's what he calls a mutilation and a sterilization.
Gender-affirming care for youth is life-saving and a medical necessity.
And so, as I said before, Florida legislature is looking at expanding this parental rights bill.
You know, it's two aspects of it.
Parental rights with parents have to be notified where they can opt out in school.
And the other aspect of it is to stop the teaching of this stuff, the gaslighting of this stuff.
At certain ages, they only did K through third grade.
Now they say, well, that's a mistake.
The legislature says we should make it pre-K. Ha ha.
Because that's a loophole for them.
Pre-K through 8th grade.
But the State Board of Education really understand what's going on and they want to take it all the way up to 12th grade.
And in response, the largest LGBT advocacy group in Florida says this is part of a larger disturbing trend.
A larger disturbing trend? You mean to leave children alone?
You're the ones who started the trend of grooming and gaslighting kids.
Said, this is totally wrong.
We're being written out of society.
See, this is all about their...
Self-centered validation of their sexual fantasies.
And they're using kids to do it.
It is the most reprehensible thing I can imagine.
I would have never imagined anything like this would happen.
In a sense...
Do you remember the...
It was...
The guy that played J.R. Ewing in Dallas, and he was also the astronaut in I Dream of Jeannie, right?
It was his mom, Mary Martin.
And she played Peter Pan, and they put it on TV on an annual basis when I was young.
And I thought, that's just the strangest thing.
You have this woman... Playing Peter Pan.
It's really creepy. And then there was this really creepy part where they didn't have Tinkerbell because it's like a play.
And it was... I would look at it because it would come on and you only have three channels, right?
And TV was constantly on in my house.
And it was like this train wreck that you can't look away from.
Like an automobile wreck.
It's like, you don't want to look, but it's like, look at that.
It's just... And so there was this scene, I'll never forget how creepy and stupid it was, where it's like, they've got like, I don't even know if they even had a little light at the time.
The props are so crude.
It's like, come on, everybody, come on.
Tinkerbells are going to die.
Everybody, you know, clap or whatever.
Oh, Tinkerbells are getting a little bit better.
Clap more and all this rest of the stuff, right?
That's what these people are doing with kids in kindergarten.
You know, oh, I'm dressed up like Tinkerbell, and I need your approval.
Applaud for me. I'm feeling better.
I'm getting stronger now.
It's pathetic. I'm like Peter Pan.
These overweight, bearded guys in dresses will never grow up.
It's just amazing. But, of course, now Disney's got the Peter Pan thing where they've completely inverted.
The Lost Boys are girls, and...
Wendy is not a mother figure, because we don't want mothers in Disney films anymore.
So anyway, we'll see what happens in Florida.
One of the things we criticized about the Florida Republicans and about Ron DeSantis was again...
They understand what the problem is, but they won't go all the way to fix it.
And we've seen that with the K-3rd grade approach to this or the limited pulling back on the vaccines.
But Walt Disney is still pushing the LGBT stuff.
You know, they started this fight a year ago.
They said, that's don't say gay.
If you're not going to push pornography, you're going to take pornographic books out of the libraries.
Sexually explicit books out of the libraries, then that's...
And this is what...
This is Archimax.com.
And they said, well, you know, we have...
They said, having explicit sexuality and nudity and explicit content showing sexual acts, that's not pornographic.
Oh, it isn't?
When you put it in students' libraries.
And this isn't being taught as a textbook.
This is just in the student libraries.
It's like, oh, really? And it's not inappropriate for teenagers to read this.
What a bunch of nonsense. That is their approach.
And they call removing that censorship.
And they call it Don't Say Gay.
And so Walt Disney is still pushing this.
They're going to be hosting a major LGBT conference in September.
And it's called Out and Equal Workplace Summit.
And it's going to be, the sponsors are going to be of this LGBT conference, are going to be, listen to the sponsors.
Disney, of course. But they're going to be partnering with Apple, Bank of America, Pfizer, Visa, the State Department, and the CIA. The CIA. So now you know where this is all coming from.
This is an agenda that is very politicized and weaponized against us.
The CIA, the State Department, Apple, Pfizer, the corporations that seek to control our lives, to spy on us in every way.
They're the ones pushing this stuff.
U.S. Bishop's Conference in the Catholic Church has met.
I love this headline because it's absolutely true.
Well, it's not one bishop.
It's what their statement came out with.
Nobody is born in the wrong body.
That's a good slogan.
They rule out certain forms of medical interventions in Catholic health care institutions because they got a lot of Catholic health care, a lot of Catholic hospitals.
They said Catholic hospitals are not going to do hormone or mutilation surgery.
And the Catholic Health Care Services must not perform interventions, whether surgical or chemical, that aim to transform the sexual characteristics of a human body into those of the opposite sex or take part in the development of such procedures.
They do not promote the authentic good of the human person but are, in fact, injurious.
They recall a fundamental tenet of the Christian faith that, quote, there is an order in the natural world that was designed by its creator, and that this created order is good, and we are called to respect it.
And the respect for creation is especially important in the case of the human person, they said, since humanity occupies a singular place in the created order, being created in the image of God.
We did not create human nature, nor do we own our own human nature, as if it were something that we are free to make use of in any way that we please.
They said no one is born in the wrong body.
The soul does not come into existence on its own and somehow happen to be in a body, as if it could just as well have been in a different body.
No, God is sovereign, is the way you would sum that up, right?
God knew us as he was knitting us together in our mother's womb.
He knew our days.
He also knew our gender and sex.
And we were created by God.
We did not create ourselves, and we're not going to be able to recreate ourselves.
But remember I said, this conference that's being done in partnership with Disney and Apple, these entertainment companies, these companies that spy on us, these companies that poison and sterilize us like Pfizer, Partnering with the CIA, with the State Department.
And throughout the Biden administration, the National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby said, advocating LGBT rights is a core part of America's foreign policy.
They've been saying this from the very beginning.
They've been saying this since even before Ukraine.
And you had, as everything was kicking off, you had a, he was either a A defense minister or he was somebody who was in, you know, their intelligence agencies saying that LGBT was their core value as well.
This is something they're all, it's a core value.
The U.S. National Security Council says it's core.
The British Intelligence Agency says it's core.
These are their core values.
The values of Sodom and Gomorrah.
That's their core values.
We're not just building a multi-trillion dollar pile of debt.
We're storing up God's wrath.
It's what Western civilization is doing.
All of our leaders see this as their core value.
John Kirby was the one who said it.
From CNS News at the White House, on Tuesday a reporter told Kirby that Uganda's parliament We're good to go.
Access to those resources, and those resources will go to China and to Russia.
Because China and Russia aren't going to push this perversion on them.
We will. And they don't like it.
And they're all pushing back.
And so, as we see the CIA, the UK defense minister, the UK intelligence people, the National Security Council, all pushing this.
I wonder if there's now going to be a coup in Uganda.
So they can push this.
I mean, look, see where Zelensky is, embracing all of this stuff as well.
He also said Russia was potentially backing such laws as a wedge against the U.S. And because the Biden administration is currently engaging with Africa on other issues, this is a concern.
Is this a concern for the U.S., asked the reporter.
Do you really care? I mean, do you want...
Is it more important for you to have access to critical mineral resources in Africa?
Or would you rather give that up so that you can push LGBT? Well, we'll take the LGBT stuff.
That's no doubt about it.
That's our core value. Kirby said, President Biden has been nothing but consistent about his foundational belief in human rights and LGBT... Rights are human rights, he said.
We're never going to be shy or bashful in speaking up about those rights for individuals to live as they deem fit, as they want to live.
It is a core part of our foreign policy, and it will remain so, he said.
And so we will continue to use children for sexual fantasies of these perverts.
And, you know, when you look at...
And it's not just the National Security Council.
At the same time, State Department is saying the same thing.
This is on Politico.
You have Secretary of State Blinken said, I press the Saudis on LGBT issues in every conversation.
Maybe that's why they're...
Moving towards China.
You think China does that? Of course they don't.
Of course they don't. China, Saudis don't want it.
China doesn't want it. Russia doesn't want it.
The US is intruding this and pushing this.
And so, you know, these people are nuts.
They want to control us.
They want to pervert our societies.
They want to control us economically.
It's absolutely imperative that That men be allowed to have sex with other men in Uganda, Botswana, Saudi Arabia, North Korea, Iran, Afghanistan, and so on.
That is the commentary of information liberation.
The neocons controlling our foreign policy have made this one of their top goals for a decade now.
And the program continued under Trump.
And he says that. As a matter of fact, why is it that people can't figure out Why Trump is calling Ron DeSantis Ron DeSaint Timonious?
It's because of the pushback for parental rights and saying you're not going to teach this to kids in school.
Trump is all about that.
Trump is holding... Trump is fetting these people at Mar-a-Lago all the time.
Again, holding a big rally along with Carrie Lake, that other big hero of the MAGA crowd.
The two of them were having a big party.
For all the LGBT people at Mar-a-Lago the same day that Biden signed in the legislative honoring of homosexual marriage, Trump, Melania, Carrie Lake had this big party for the LGBT people.
And he thinks anybody who pushes back against this, oh, that's Ron DeSancdemonious.
He's sanctimonious about all this stuff.
Yeah, MAGA can't see that.
MAGA can't see which side of this thing Trump is on.
He's on the side of the LGBT pedos.
And he's on the side of Jeffrey Epstein.
They can't see that either. He's on the plane of Jeffrey Epstein.
Then they can't see it.
Yeah. And so, information liberation, Chris Minahan makes a statement.
He says, yeah, you know, the military's having a really hard time recruiting people.
Maybe it's because Americans are deciding that they don't want to fight and die in foreign lands so that pride parades can be conducted in Moscow, Shanghai, and Tehran.
Right? And that's exactly what it is.
That's their core value.
That's why we have to go to war, is because we've got to push that on people.
And it is being pushed. Look at USA Today now has picked a woman of the year, who is not a woman, a guy who goes by the name Leigh Fink, a former journalist and author, elected as a state representative late last year, chosen as Minnesota's Woman of the Year by USA Today newspaper.
They have a woman of the year in various, in every state, I guess.
He's a Democrat who transitioned in 2017, Minnesota's first ever transgender legislator, when he secured 81% of the vote in November's House of Representatives election.
He assumed office in early January.
I'm not going to use the other pronouns.
USA Today claimed in its list of female honorees released last Friday that he is, quote, fighting to build a better future for trans youth.
So he has been made Woman of the Year in Minnesota by USA Today.
Gannett, one of the big media conglomerates in the United States.
He has pursued legislation to transform Minnesota into a so-called trans-sanctuary state.
USA Today wants to honor that.
As well as supporting Black Lives Matter, which he has supported almost his whole life.
But of course, they use the female pronouns, even though this is a guy.
Absolutely amazing. But when you look at a little bit of his background, it gets to be a little bit troubling, actually, when this was coming up and he was about to be announced.
One of USA Today's Women of the Year is a man who dismissed child sex abuse allegations.
We look a picture of him with glasses on.
He looks kind of like Robin Williams as Mrs.
Doubtfire, you know? I think it's interesting that Hollywood has been selling this to us in so many different ways.
There's comedies and stuff. You had Mrs.
Doubtfire. You had Tootsie.
You had Colonel Clink.
Yeah. Not Colonel Clink.
You had Corporal Clinger, right?
Well, these people all need to get a Section 8.
Anyway... So nominated, this article was written when he was just nominated, but he's now been named by USA Today.
His nomination came on the same day that he publicly testified that sexual abuse allegations against a minor were not relevant when deciding to continue funding a non-profit.
He said he was embarrassed, upset, and angry that a previous lawsuit against a central community organizer for indigenous environmental group honor the earth.
See, it's all the same stuff.
It's the green pagan religion, the occultism, the sexual fantasies and all this.
This was brought up when they were deciding whether or not they would continue to fund Somebody was concerned because one of the central organizers for that environmental group, Honor the Earth, Michael Dahl, was accused of pedophilia in 2015 after a group of women confronted the founder and the co-executive director of Honor the Earth,
Winona LaDuke. LaDuke said that Dahl, quote, probably did have sex with a 15-year-old in question in the 1990s, but this is not what we should be talking about, said Fink.
Don't want to talk about that.
Because, you know, we don't want to focus on anything like that.
We've got our own agendas.
We've got our environmental agenda. We've got our trans agenda.
A Florida Democrat has claimed the Republicans are erasing our trans babies and want to commit genocide.
Now, if this isn't a case of projection, I don't know what is.
These are the people who are erasing our babies.
Erasing grandbabies, if you want.
By sterilizing the current crop of kids with drugs, with surgery, mutilating, sterilizing them.
They are the ones who want to commit genocide.
When you strip away access to gender-affirming care, you are erasing trans people.
You are erasing trans babies.
They're the ones who created it.
This. This is a fiction of their imagination that they have created.
Her comments drew criticism from a top Democrat who said, well, people like Anna, this is why we lose, told the local newspaper there.
there.
We're going to take a quick break and we will be right back.
Thank you.
you And now, The David Knight Show.
Let's talk a little bit about the Second Amendment.
We had... I thought this was a funny article.
It was on Breitbart.
Democrat Sheila Jackson Lee says the ATF has been keeping us safe since 1886.
Has it? I think, you know, with all the facts being made up by ChatGPT, I think they should rename it in her honor as Sheila.
Just go ask Sheila.
Well, it turns out that the fantasy of this is not so much the 1886 date.
You can actually make a case for that.
A.W.R. Hawkins at Breitbart does not.
But you can actually make a case for That the ATF has been around in not exactly the same form, but, you know, doing their dirty work since 1886.
But the real fantasy about all this stuff is not the date.
It's the idea that's been keeping us safe.
Jackson said in the hearing, she said she was incredulous that a hearing highlighting the ATF's regulatory gun control push was being held.
I mean, come on, this is gun control by executive order.
We shouldn't be getting in their way.
They've been keeping us safe since 1886.
She said there's been over 100 mass shootings already in 2023.
Did you know that? I didn't know that.
Is she talking about the constant shootings going on in Democrat-controlled Chicago?
I don't know. That's drug-related in any way.
But she did not provide any substantiation of the claim.
She also claimed there was, quote, a constant range of gunfire across America, unquote.
She said that includes, quote, on Sunday.
When many people in America are just seeking the solace of faith.
Then she said, Actually,
the strange thing about it is that that is total baloney, but you couldn't make a case for any of keeping America safe through regulation and all the rest of this stuff.
You could make a little bit of a case for them going back to 1886.
Technically, they were not an agency at that point in time.
But if you go back, because I looked at it, I said, so when were they created?
Well, the ATF became an independent bureau in 1972 under Tricky Dicky Nixon.
The guy who gave us wage and price controls, 55 mile an hour speed limits, he created the EPA, he created the Department of Energy, he created all kinds of things, and then they created the ATF as an independent agency in 1972.
But prior to that, in 1886, inside the Treasury Department, They had something they called the Revenue Lab.
And that may have been what she was referring to in 1886.
The Revenue Lab.
Maybe that was just the first time a federal employee shot someone's dog, you know?
Mark that as an experiment, yeah.
These are the hated revenuers that the moonshiners around here in Tennessee would always talk about.
Right here, Granny talking about it.
Beverly Hillbillies. But yeah, everybody talked about those revenuers and the moonshine stills and all the rest of this stuff.
You know, going back to that, that was a revenue lab.
How can we make revenue off of this?
And then during alcohol prohibition, it got transferred from the Treasury Department to the Department of Justice.
So they were all about, you know, alcohol control.
And then it got transferred to the IRS because I guess they figured that since they couldn't get Al Capone for alcohol, they got him for taxes, maybe we should put those alcohol revenuers inside the tax agency and show them how it's done.
So, or vice versa.
So then in 1968, after you had the Gun Control Act, the heinous violation of the Constitution of the 1968 Gun Control Act, That's when they first started calling this group of people the ATF, and they didn't become a separate agency until 1972.
But the reality is that all the rest of this stuff was absolute and total garbage.
And as part of that hearing, Chip Roy from Texas said, the ATF's rule highlights the danger of bureaucrats making law.
Exactly. Exactly. They've abdicated all of their legislative power to the bureaucracies.
And all they will do is hold hearings.
And that's what they're doing. And that's what he says at the hearing.
Well, you know, we've abdicated our ability to do laws.
We've abdicated to the bureaucracy.
That's just really bad.
Well, they don't do anything about it, do they?
He said the crux of the Republicans' problem with the ATF... It's the idea of a bureaucrat making unilateral decisions to try to turn millions of Americans into felons, to advance a radical leftist agenda, which is clearly what is at play.
Wait a minute. The first gun control by executive order, the first gun control by the ATF, was done under Trump with the bump stocks.
And why is it that that is your only problem with the ATF? Is that they're now making the rules and you're not passing any laws.
And why don't you bring them under control?
It's just amazing to me because the ATF should not even exist.
There's no authority for them to exist on the Constitution.
There was nothing that was given to the federal government to say, you need to control firearms.
As a matter of fact, they were specifically prohibited from infringing on the right of the people to keep and bear arms.
That's what they ought to be going after.
And then they've got plenty of other agencies that they can go after and say, you're writing rules that are being treated as if they were law, except it doesn't have any of the constitutional protections, a due process, presumption of innocence, protection from excessive punishments and fines.
We've got to stop this.
He's getting right up to the edge of it, but he doesn't really get to the foundation of it.
He gets around the fringe.
He suggested the ATF has taken it upon themselves to do what Congress has not done.
Well, that's right, but Trump did it.
Trump did it. Trump set that precedent.
He then asked the congressional witness, Amy Swearer of the Heritage Foundation, to give her take on the matter.
She said, Our Constitution is set up with separated powers.
The executive branch enforces laws.
The legislative branch passes laws because Congress is held accountable to the people.
She then said the ATF's insertion of itself into the lawmaking process infringes on rights without Americans having a process by which to recall ATF appointees.
As I've said over and over again, it's regulation without representation.
They don't have the authority to make laws.
And the rules are worse than laws because, again, they go by this fantasy that if you violate a rule, you get no due process protection.
So she said, yes, this is, its rulemaking is unconstitutional and unlawful.
No, the ATF is unconstitutional and unlawful.
It exists to serve a purpose which is expressly forbidden in the Constitution.
And this isn't, well, you know, you didn't say that we couldn't do it.
You didn't say that we could do it, but we're going to do it.
No, you were told you can't do what the ATF does.
He criticized gun control that is a result of what, quote, an executive branch bureaucrat unilaterally decides to do.
Trump? Why, you know, anyway.
This should send shivers down the spine of all members of Congress.
We'll then do something about it.
You know, at least introduce a bill, even if it isn't going to pass.
I'm sick and tired of these dog and pony show hearings where they can get up and make speeches and never do anything.
That's why the bureaucracy has taken over.
Because all they want to do is speeches and fundraising.
Brazil's new leftist government is moving to take back guns.
There was a surge under bolson arrow.
Every time I say that, because every time I say that, the transcription program calls it bows and arrows.
Under bows and arrows, they got a lot of firearms.
Lula, the communist...
Is trying to pull back these guns, pushing legislation that says the maximum number of guns a person can own is going to be reduced from six to three.
I mean, you haven't even gotten a good start if you're in Texas, if you've only got six guns, right?
Not six shooters, but six guns.
It's time to put down your weapons, weapons that should never have been wielded, said the communist Lula.
Communists don't like guns because power comes out of the barrel of a gun, as Mao said.
They understand that, and they don't want you to have any power.
Any gun that is not declared will be considered an illegal weapon, and they will be committing a crime.
It is estimated that roughly 3 million guns that are currently registered in Brazil, 1.6 million of them were purchased during Bolsonaro's four-year term.
Government figures suggest that only 60% of the people have agreed to register their guns so far.
Wall Street Journal interviewed some gun enthusiasts at a shooting range in Brazil.
They said, we ought to have the same rights of the people in the United States.
Yeah, they're endowed by their creator as well with certain inalienable rights.
And the government is supposed to protect those rights.
Lula's Communist Workers' Party...
Has used the United States to bolster its own position on guns.
They've run campaign ads to get elected, highlighting school shootings in the United States, and said, is this what you want for Brazil?
Well, the reality is, as the Wall Street Journal pointed out, Brazil has more homicides than had more homicides than anywhere else in the world in 2017.
And then Bolsonaro got elected.
And the number dropped to a 15-year low in 2022 after he got elected and allowed people to own guns.
Yeah, that is not...
They had the most homicides in the world when they had gun prohibition.
Isn't that interesting?
We keep seeing that over and over again.
We'll be right back. 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.
Please share the information and links you'll find at TheDavidKnightShow.com Thank you for listening.
Thank you for sharing. If you can't support us financially, please keep us in your prayers.
TheDavidKnightShow.com Alright, let's talk a little bit about what is happening with CBDC and the financial system.
We had a very interesting back and forth with this statement from Yellen.
Isn't it a fact that the President's proposed budget proposes $4.7 trillion in new taxes?
New taxes.
It does propose significant additional taxes, yes.
$4.7 trillion? Yeah, I think that's it.
Something like that, yes.
Yeah. Okay. I mean, who cares, right?
$4.7 trillion in new taxes.
Yeah, I mean, here she is.
She's Treasury Secretary. Does she know or care about?
This unbelievable tax increase, $4.7 trillion.
By the way, let me thank some of the people who have left tips and comments here.
On Rumble, conservative thinker, thank you very much for the tip.
He says, the only thing I'm betting on, because they were talking about gambling earlier, is a David Knight show.
Well, thank you. Place your bets right now.
On Rumble, also, the original Karen.
Karen? The original Karen is here, I think.
My original Karen, anyway.
But there's another one, I guess.
The original Karen, thank you very much for the tip.
That's very kind. Great show, she said.
Thanks, David and family. On Rumble, Christoa, thank you for the tip.
Happy Friday night, family.
Well, thank you very much. I do look forward to it now.
I had to pull back from doing six days a week.
I've got to have a day off to do some stuff and relax.
A lot of pressure. Anyway, the Fed is pushing CBDC. And if you look at CBDC, it actually is adding another function to money.
And that function is social control.
But what I think is interesting is that, and this is an article on Zero Hedge from Mish Talk, Mike Shedlock.
And what I thought was interesting was he found some Federal Reserve white papers that are redacted and marked as if they are secret documents.
The National Security State, everything is a secret, right?
This isn't anything that has to do with, you know, even, of course, you know, TSA is going to have documents that say there's no threat to airports or airplanes.
They say that back in 2011 as they were declaring that Texas is going to be a no-fly zone if they didn't allow naked body scanners and pat-downs and all the rest of the stuff.
But it's not just, you know, there was no security that they're trying to hide there.
Why would they redact that, right?
I mean, if they had something that said, you know, our point of vulnerability is this.
Our point of vulnerability is that we queue everybody up in a big mess to go through security.
So that if anybody wanted to harm people, they could just show up there at the screening spot and blow up a bomb.
Now, if the TSA were to say that, you might expect, well, we don't want anybody to know this.
And I haven't given out any secrets.
There's a lot of security people who have said that.
As a matter of fact, we've seen that happen in Muslim countries where Christians were regularly being attacked in churches.
They put up TSA-like screening points.
And so what did the Muslim terrorists do?
They went to that spot where everybody was bunched up to get their bags searched and their person searched, and they set off a bomb.
And the people were more concentrated there than they would have been inside the building.
So, they make everything secret.
And now the Federal Reserve is sending, you know, for your eyes only, top secret stuff to members of Congress.
And they had an interesting way of couching this.
We believe that this effort requires a proof of authority blockchain system.
Now, see, this has always been referred to as proof of stake versus private crypto like Bitcoin and other things where it's actually mined.
And so that is a proof of work, to keep it honest.
If you talk about proof of stake, that's just saying, well, it's worth what it's worth because we say that.
And now they've got a new term, proof of authority.
Proof of authority. So, as he points out, he says Bitcoin was actually created in the wake of the 2007-2008 financial crisis to push back against that.
And we also point out that the main economic attributes of a technically effective currency has three functions.
As a unit of account, as a store of value, and as a medium of exchange.
But now they want to add a fourth function, which is a means of social control.
And we have this video of Chrystia Friedland, who is the finance minister for Trudeau.
And she's got two jobs.
She works for Klaus Schwab at the World Economic Forum.
As a matter of fact, Rebel News is trying to find out if she's doing that on the Canadian government's dime.
Is she double-dipping on this stuff?
But this is what she had to say about a window of opportunity.
I really believe...
COVID has created a window of political opportunity and maybe an epiphany.
Yeah. Yeah, exactly.
Maybe an epiphany.
So, you see, all this stuff is related.
It's all being prepared.
It's all part of a plan.
You know, disruption from the inside and rolling this stuff up iteratively.
The confidential not for distribution research paper that was sent to select members of the House Financial Services Committee said that they want to support depository institutions' provision of end-to-end faster payment services and would provide infrastructure to promote ubiquitous, safe, and efficient faster payments in the United States.
And so they're sending this confidential not for distribution research to select members of the House Committee to espouse money as a means of social control.
The confidential Fed research expresses concern over income inequality It also expresses fear of Bitcoin.
This is why they're pushing so hard against crypto.
Now, we've had Emmer in the house, and again, he's got several co-sponsors, and Steve Scalise is one of them, an anti-CBDC bill.
Saying it will not be used to go directly to individuals.
It will not be used by the Fed to do economic policy and that type of thing.
He introduced that bill last year.
And Ted Cruz introduced one in the Senate last year.
And now Ted Cruz has introduced an anti-CBDC bill again this year.
Like I said before, it's not going to pass, and these people know it, but I'm glad that they're making it something that people are talking about.
As a matter of fact, in a recent article that was written for Bitcoin Policy Institute, Titled, An Attempt to Stop CBDCs, States Are Rejecting Ostensibly Pro-Bitcoin Legislation.
This is somebody pushing back on this idea.
I disagree with this, and I'll tell you why I disagree with it.
Osowski described how the House bill that was blocked by Governor Noem in South Dakota would actually have been a benefit for Bitcoin, not a net negative.
In his opinion, the response to the House bill Did not consider the full respects of the changes to the UCC, Uniform Commercial Code.
And he cautions politicians that they should be careful not to block bills that could potentially benefit Bitcoin.
He said the bill in question, based on an update to the UCC code, not only expands definitions and protections for Bitcoin.
Now, that's exactly the opposite of the way it was reported by other people.
Other people said it bans crypto and it redefines money to pave the way for CBDC. His read on it is that it actually expands the definitions of protections for Bitcoin.
I should take a look at it and decide for myself, but I didn't have the time to find the bill.
It actually creates a legal mechanism for recognizing self-custody and for the protocols inclusion in traditional lending, insurance, and commercial transactions, he says.
To have CBDC bashing as the latest litmus test for conservative politicians is indeed revolutionary.
From the point of view of individual and economic freedom that Bitcoin provides, it is a positive phenomenon.
But why is the battle being played out in rudimentary state commercial codes that have nothing to do with CBDC, with central bank digital currencies?
He said, for conservatives, this bill represents a backdoor for CBDC and for eventual federal government control of economic freedom because it gives precise definitions of money that excludes Bitcoin.
It is assumed that CBDC is what the government will qualify as money.
This, however, is not necessarily a given since leaving out a Bitcoin is not within that definition is actually a positive, he said.
Well, I don't think so.
I think that we have to, and you can, make it clear that the same type of thing that Emmer is doing or trying to do, but not going to be able to get it passed because he can't get it passed Biden's veto.
I think that, unfortunately, it has not become a litmus test for conservatives.
And there's only one candidate who's talking about it that I've seen.
I don't know if Ramaswamy is talking about it.
Trump certainly isn't.
And he's fine with that.
He's fine with 5G. He's fine with LGBT. He's fine with CBDC. All these different alphabets he loves.
And the Cashless Society is marching on.
At Panera Bread, they now have put in the palm payment system that Amazon has put together.
And Amazon is already using it in their Whole Foods chain.
You know, where you just...
It reads as a biometric...
I'm a reader.
And again, a cashless society based on biometric information.
Worst aspects of everything.
Being pushed out by Amazon, being pushed out by Panera Bread.
And it wasn't just Chrystia Freeland talking about how this is a window of opportunity with COVID. She gave all the information of the Freedom Convoy supporters to Chinese banks, to U.S. banks, to U.K. banks as well.
See, this is how this is going to work.
It is going to very, very rapidly become a global surveillance system.
They've already used it that way.
The Trudeau administration used it to seize and shut down people's bank accounts, and now we see that they're using it and sharing it with banks internationally and telling them to do the same thing where they are.
Twitter is now testing ID verification feature.
If you want to get the blue checkmark, You not only pay to do it, but Elon Musk is going to have you do a full-on verification system for the Twitter blue subscribers.
So you're going to have to produce a legal ID and all the rest of this stuff.
They're going to drill down quite a bit because people are just going in and buying a Twitter, blue checkmark for fictitious accounts and everything.
So now they're really doubling down on identification.
And again, I don't give any of these social media sites my identification.
I don't think you should either. It's not secure.
It could result in identity theft.
And it also sets up a path to take us into having to prove your identity in order to get on the internet.
That's where they want to go.
And they've tried to bring that in in terms of protecting kids from child pornography.
Saying if you want to go to Pornhub, we're going to have to register that and make a law about that.
Again, I'd say stay away from Pornhub and stay away from giving anybody your ID. This was sent to me by a listener.
A couple of screens that, I don't know where they snapshot this from.
These are opinions of other people.
Any buyer of Signature Bank must agree to give up the crypto business at the bank.
The government is really fearful of crypto.
Well, that is true.
Central banks will use the banking collapse...
To push their CBDC, they will sell you the dream that the CBDCs are safer because they aren't in a fractional reserve banking system.
Resist it. Well, and of course, the safety aspect of all of this is inherent in the idea that they're pushing out and they're pushing this out through Yellen that you've got to move your money because they're going to guarantee the big banks but not the small and medium-sized banks.
And ultimately what that means is that people would Out of fear, uncertainty, and doubt.
Perhaps if things get bad enough, quickly enough, you could sell them the idea, well, now the ultimate too-big-to-fail bank is the central bank.
The Voyager bankruptcy judge just cut through years of the SEC's nonsense.
SEC says Binance might be a securities exchange.
The judge said the SEC showed literally no evidence that Binance would misuse customers' funds.
Again, it's a full-on attack that I
just read Biden's annual economic report.
This is a concerted effort to restructure definitions.
And we know what the money that they want out there is.
And then this. Nigeria started making social assistance payments only to CBDC wallets, and now its transactions are up 63%.
That's how it works.
That's how it'll roll out.
As a matter of fact, as I've said many times, If you look at what was happening in India with the Adhar system, that was a system that wasn't a CBDC system, but it was a system for digital ID. And Bill Gates was heavily involved in that, pushing that. And the way they got that adopted was to use welfare payments.
And so you're not going to get any welfare payments, you're not going to get any health care payments for the poor people if you don't take the number.
Take the mark of the beast, right?
Or you're not going to be able to get any of this stuff.
And then when they bring in a large number of people that way, and again, they could also, private companies, they could incentivize private companies, say, you know, guess what?
If you tell people that they've got to pay, first they would say, if you get people to pay with the CBDC, we'll make it, we'll give you a financial reward for that.
And we've seen all of this play out with the vaccines, right?
First you provide the vaccine, and it's like, hey, it's just there.
If people want it, whatever, right?
You know, Trump's not going to force anybody, so vote for Trump again, even though he created this thing.
Then they say, well, we're not going to force you.
We're going to offer you prizes.
We'll have a lottery.
We'll do this. We'll do that if you take the vaccine.
It will open up things to you.
And then they come in and they say, no, now you've got to have it or things are going to be closed down.
And the next step, of course, is to say, you must have it or we will lock you up.
And that's the way all this stuff is going to roll out as well.
They're going to roll it out as free stuff.
They're going to incentivize it.
It'll be positive operant conditioning.
And then it'll be negative operant conditioning.
We're going to take a quick break and we will be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
you you you you Thank you.
Alright, I want to say thank you to some of the people who left tips on Rumble and Rockfin.
On Rockfin, Doug Elkins, thank you very much for the tip.
And on Rumble, Arcadia 513, thank you for the tip.
They say, the Polk County Florida Sheriff outlined how to deal with school shooters.
There will never be a school shooting in Polk County.
Anyone coming onto school property with a gun will be shot by armed staff.
That's the way you do it. I think it's the same guy that did this.
So, just chill out.
Drink a 7-Up.
Eat a moon pie. Quit murdering people.
I think it's that guy. He's been very entertaining, but he's absolutely grounded in all this stuff.
He knows what's going on. If that's the same Polk County Sheriff, I think it is.
Anyway, well, let's do our obligatory report update on the Manhattan melodrama.
We should get some soap opera stuff as the world turns around Trump, right?
As everything rotates around Trump.
So, I don't know what's going on.
They were supposed, this guy, the Manhattan DA, was supposed to report to Congress for a show trial, and he didn't do it yesterday.
So, I don't know what's happening with that.
Jim Jordan wants his limelight over that, and two other committee chairmen want to have him come in.
Of course, they're not doing anything to defend us against the jab, against the digital ID, against CBDC. They're not doing anything of any substance to get rid of the emergency order.
They said, yeah, we're going to get rid of that, but then they didn't do it.
And, you know, Biden is still there.
Trump's emergency order is still there being used by Biden.
They're not doing anything to get us out of the WHO. They're not talking about what the WHO is trying to do in terms of setting up rules to be able to lock us down or anywhere else in the world.
They're not opposing any of this direct tyranny that is coming at us.
Instead, you know, they're playing these partisan clown games.
And it's a clown game. I'm disgusted and ashamed at the same time of people like Jim Jordan doing this kind of stuff.
And so, you know, again, it is a political persecution.
Absolutely true. Whether they have the authority to do that or not, to demand that a district attorney comes in there, I think we have separation of power, and I think that's one thing that Bragg is right about.
Probably the only thing that he's right about is the fact that...
He can't be summoned to testify before them.
But anyway, Trump is still doing great.
He raked in one and a half million dollars.
I think I pointed that out yesterday.
He hasn't been arrested, but he's making lots of money.
Over telling people that he's going to be.
He had only $25 million in his campaign war chest at the beginning of the year, down from $105 million the previous year, but he's making it up now, and his lawyer says Trump seems to be able to turn everything into a positive, everything into a boost for his campaign.
Yes, he does have the Midas touch, doesn't he?
And then yesterday, he put out a very interesting statement, a stunning message pushing back on calls for his supporters to be peaceful.
He puts out a screaming rant on a social media post on Thursday morning.
Why won't Bragg drop the case?
Everybody says there's no crime here.
I did nothing wrong. It was all made up by a convicted nutjob with zero credibility, who's been disputed by highly respected professionals at every turn.
Bragg refuses to stop, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary.
He's a sores-backed animal who just doesn't care about right or wrong.
No matter how many people are hurt, this is no legal system.
This is a Gestapo. This is Russia and China.
But worse, disgraceful.
I'm in 60 minutes later.
16. He says, everybody knows I'm 100% innocent, including Bragg, but he doesn't care.
He's just carrying out the plans of the radical left lunatics.
Our country is being destroyed as they tell us to be peaceful.
Yeah, who are these people telling us to be peaceful?
Well, you go fight him, Trump.
It's just like all these other people are going to send you off to war.
He's going to send you off to war in Ukraine, into war in Iraq or Afghanistan or Vietnam, or into war with...
The people in the Capitol building, and now it's go to war for my enemies in Manhattan.
Amazing. And they tell us to be peaceful.
Can you believe that? They want you to be peaceful.
You shouldn't be peaceful. What a piece of filth he is.
And so, you see this in the MAGA press.
Donald Trump shares a letter from Stormy Daniels in 2018 denying an affair.
In the letter from 2018, And just ask yourself, who writes something like this?
Somebody who's just been given $130,000 and signed an NDA and told to write something like this.
You know, this is not a dear diary letter.
Over the past few weeks, I've been asked countless times to comment on reports of an alleged sexual relationship I had with Donald Trump many, many, many years ago, she said.
The fact of the matter is that each party to this alleged affair denied its existence in 2006, 2011, 2016, 2017, and now again in 2018.
I am not denying this affair because I was paid hush money, as has been reported in overseas tabloids.
I am denying this affair because it never happened, and I will have no further comment on this matter because I've been paid $130,000.
Dear Diary, I just had to get this off my chest.
Or maybe it was because, dear diary, I just got $130,000 in requirement to write this thing.
A report from the Wall Street Journal details chaos and last-minute shuffling within the Manhattan district attorney's office, adding that the district attorney, Alvin Bragg, is scrambling to indict Trump.
I don't think they're going to get him.
I don't think they've got a case.
As a matter of fact, even Matt Drudge put up left-stream articles saying all these lawyers in New York and, you know, both working for the government and private, they all hate Trump, but they don't think that Bragg has got a case.
So, again, it's going to just be used by Trump to fundraise.
And it's going to be used by the conservative press to promote themselves by embracing Trump and promoting Trump.
They're going to promote Trump because that's how they promote themselves.
And Trump is going to hold himself forth as a martyr for this case, which is clearly political persecution that is not going to win.
But people will keep sending him money.
Hopefully they just don't pay attention to him and they stay peaceful.
It comes after a 2018 letter, another letter from Michael Cohen's attorney that surfaced.
I told you about that yesterday. Essentially, that was when Michael Cohen...
Was pleading for Rudy to cover his legal stuff.
And so you take a look at these two letters, and it really is absolute nonsense.
But Trump is using this to pick up cash, to pick up places in the polls.
And of course, the polls don't mean anything, especially at this point in time.
There's been no debates with anything.
And everybody is focused...
On that. They're not focused on CBDC. They're not focused on the war.
We're going to be going to Gerald Slenty and we're going to be talking about what has happened this last couple of weeks since he's been on with the war.
But I want to play a couple of clips before we go to Gerald.
This one is from, look at this.
This is at the EU, Trudeau.
We're both stepping up our support to Ukraine, including our military support.
This is what she says. In parallel, we will continue training Ukrainian soldiers like you are doing so, but you have been doing since 2015 already.
Our goal is, on the European side, to train 30,000 troops by the end of the year.
So, as she turns to Trudeau and says, as you have been doing since 2015.
So, the Obama administration It does a coup and overthrows the government.
The government creates a civil war.
They've been training Ukrainian troops since 2015.
This is not the first time that we've been told this.
As a matter of fact, when they're talking about the fact that they can't keep track of all the material that we're sending them, all the military equipment and weapons, they can't keep track of it.
They said, yeah, this has been going on for, you know, eight years we've been sending them stuff, and we have no idea where it's going.
And they've been training the troops there since 2015.
But then this clip, this is Colonel McGregor being interviewed by Judge Napolitano.
Listen to this. We'd be concerned if coming out of this meeting there was some sort of call for a ceasefire.
Because right now, while a ceasefire sounds good, it actually ratifies Russia's gains on the ground.
It actually serves Russia's purpose for a ceasefire to basically call a stop right now without any acknowledgement that Russia is illegally inside Ukraine.
So the United States will be against the ceasefire because of this principle issue?
I think I've been very clear.
It's about the principle of a ceasefire called for right now, which would essentially just ratify Russia's gains.
When a great power like China offers anything resembling a peace plan that involves a ceasefire, our response should be, we're taking it on board, and we're going to examine it, and we will respond after we've had a chance to examine it thoroughly.
That's what a good diplomat would say.
We have taken the position that the only arbiter in this operation is us.
In other words, we're the only ones that can accept or reject any peace plan or ceasefire for Ukraine, which is utterly nonsensical.
Most of what happens beyond our borders on any given day is completely irrelevant to the American people.
But in this particular case, if we were interested in peace, and I think we've made it very clear that we're not, then we should have simply said, we'll examine the proposal.
That costs you nothing to say that, and that's the diplomatic language that we should have used.
The second part is that China is genuinely interested in bringing this war to a close.
Everything that China is about is economic expansion, building prosperity.
They want to build the one belt, one road that runs from the coast of China in the east, on the Pacific, all the way to Europe.
To do that, you've got to cross through Central Asia and from Central Asia through Russia to Ukraine and through White Russia to Europe.
They want that trade.
The Europeans, by the way, would like to trade with China.
Now, why do they want to go through Central Asia, Overlook?
Because right now, they're heavily dependent for oil, gas, all the natural resources, minerals, food, on transport over the sea.
Everything has to come out of East Africa, out of the Persian Gulf, Saudi Arabia, the Emirates, and Iran, via ship through the Strait of Malacca, up through the South China Sea, to China's ports.
That means that they are vulnerable for thousands of miles to what?
It's called the United States Navy.
Very interesting commentary.
And of course, when I interviewed Alexander Dugan, that was his whole distinction.
The U.S., following on with the British Empire, is a sea power.
We are a land power.
And China is essentially seeing themselves that same way.
It's interesting to hear retired Colonel McGregor say that.
He was being interviewed by Judge Napolitano.
And when we come back, we're going to be talking to Gerald Slenty, who frequently does programs together with Judge Napolitano.
We'll be right back. Stay with us.
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.
Please share the information and links you'll find at TheDavidKnightShow.com Thank you for listening.
Thank you for sharing. If you can't support us financially please keep us in your prayers All
right, welcome back. And joining us now is Gerald Salenti, publisher of Trends Journal.
You find it at trendsjournal.com.
Excellent journal. I have read it for years, and Gerald is always ahead of the curve.
And he's got a deal set up that if you type in code NIGHT, you get 10% off of that, and it helps our program as well.
So I appreciate that. Thank you very much, Gerald.
Appreciate that. And welcome.
We've had a lot of things that have happened since you've last been on, haven't we?
No, nothing. Nothing's sad.
Everything's just fine. It's amazing that you think about all the stuff that has happened in just the last two weeks, and it happened right after the show.
They started shutting down SVB Bank over the weekend and so forth.
But all that happened after the last time you were on.
So what's going to happen today?
I don't know. Well, let's go back to the Silicon Valley Bank.
And it's a perfect name.
Silicon. Con men.
Silicon. Silicon men.
Look at the little freaks that are running and ruining our lives.
You like that guy Zuckerberg or Zuckerberg?
That guy can keep his billions along with Gates.
I wouldn't want to look like them or be like them.
There aren't enough billions of dollars in the world for me to look like one of these little arrogant pieces of crap.
So let's go back to the Silicon Valley bank bust and put this into perspective.
Another little arrogant freak with that beard, that little Dorsey clown, oh, that they're now accusing of fraud on one of those other deals?
Yeah, that guy? The COVID war began three years ago on January 2020, launched out of China on Chinese Lunar New Year, the year of the rat.
The first rat to freak out America was that little Dorsey freak back in February.
Of 2020. Again, we wrote about this in the Trends Journal as it was happening.
He was going to go to South Africa.
He canceled his flights.
And told all the workers to stay at home.
Following Twitter, Facebook, Google, that peach eye.
Again, look at these little freaks that are the big people that tell us what to say and what to do or else they blacklist us.
Yeah. Facebook, Google, Microsoft, all the Silicon Valley lockdown.
And then all the businesses followed and their business boomed.
Oh yeah, they told all the students, all the colleges started closing down in February 2020.
Their business boomed as you're learning from home, you're working from home, you're buying from home.
You can't go out.
You can't go out. Get into your house.
You can't go out.
Right? Yeah, they were the portal that you had to live your life through.
Yeah, tech business boom.
Yeah. Now, going back to Silicon Valley Bank.
Hey, you know, I got an idea.
I'm going to start an IPO. I'm going to start a SPAC. I got this great tech idea.
All right, yeah. All these billions and billions and billions of dollars pumping in to these new tech firms based on nothing and backed by nothing.
Now let's fast forward.
Again, in the Trends Journal, we said at the end of 2021 that the COVID war would wind down by May of 2022.
And that's exactly what happened.
Now does tech stocks start going down?
Oh, yeah. Go back to the end of December 2022.
The tech stocks were down only 33% from their high.
So they're crashing.
Now let's go back to the Silicon Valley Bank.
Oh, they bet on all these tech firms.
They had all their dough in it.
And now they're going broke.
Now they need money as people are bailing out, pulling out.
Oh, and they bought...
Government treasuries and the mortgages, but they bought them when interest rates were near zero.
So now they've got to sell their stuff to pay off the losses that are coming in, and they're not worth anything.
That's your Silicon Valley bank bust.
Now let's put this into a big perspective.
We're the only ones talking about it.
It's virtually blacklisted in the mainstream media.
The office building bust.
Yeah, that's right.
Now you have all of these office buildings that, according to Castle with a K, the 10 largest cities in America, have an office occupancy rate of 50.4%.
So half the people aren't coming back to work.
I own one of those buildings.
I don't own them, but the gang owns them.
Right? The big hedge funds, the private equity groups, all of those people that own everything.
Now I'm a tenant there.
My people are coming back to work two or three days a week.
I don't need all these floors in the building anymore.
Give me two floors instead of ten.
As the leases are renewed.
Oh, now interest rates have gone way up.
And they have these revolving loan deals with these buildings.
So now they've got to pay more on their loan as they're getting way less money coming in.
What are they going to say to the banks?
Hey, keep the building, man.
I can't pay for it anymore.
Yeah. So most of them are on a variable rate mortgage.
They don't have a fixed mortgage on these things.
They're vulnerable in that way as well?
Yeah. They're revolving loans.
It's a certain deal they put in with these big buildings.
So now they've got to pay more.
Now, this is an article on Tuesday from the New York Times.
I call it the toilet paper record.
I'm just putting the whole picture together here.
Mm-hmm. Bus company ends service to New York, citing COVID. The Camp Bus Lines, which serves riders in Passaic and Essex counties in northern New Jersey, announced on Monday that it would end its commuter service to and from New York City beginning on April 7th.
The company, which operates in the region for over 150 years, now closing down.
You know why? Ridership is now averaging 20% of pre-pandemic levels.
Wow. This is Jersey, right near New York, the George Washington Bridge over there.
Oh, pre-pandemic?
Not pre-pandemic.
There was no pandemic.
It was political lockdowns.
I ask everybody, how many people do you know that died of the coronavirus?
Well, I got a friend that has a friend that knows a friend.
Oh, I know somebody.
They were only about 150 pounds overweight.
Pre-existing comorbidities.
Yeah. Anyway, it wasn't a pandemic, but I'll go back to this, because this is how they're rewriting history by using that language.
They go on to say, remember, 20%.
They used to say, now the service which serves suburbs, including Montclair and Bloomfield, average is about...
80 trips to and from the city.
Before the pandemic, 223 trips.
Wow. Now it goes on.
The Port Authority in New York, the buses and the public service, the trains and the buses coming in, The Port Authority in New York and New Jersey reported that PATH Services, which brings commuters in and out of Manhattan, recorded a 52% service compared to 2019 ridership levels.
So this is real.
Businesses are going out of business across the scope.
It's not only the bus service that's losing business.
All the people that used to depend on commuters, their businesses are out of business.
No more happy hours.
Hardly anybody is going in on Friday.
Friday is dead day.
Friday used to be life day.
Hey, happy hours.
Let's clap some drinks, man.
Whoa, glad the week's up.
No, dead. Dead.
This banking crisis is for real.
Yeah. Yeah.
It's big. Yeah.
Are they going to bring in the digital currencies?
You go back to our Trends Journal.
Again, exactly three years ago in March of 2020, the cover of the magazine was from dirty cash to digital trash.
Yes, they're going to do that.
Are they doing this purposely with the bank bus?
No. This thing is real.
It's real. They artificially propped up the economy with countless trillions of dollars to fight the COVID war.
They all use that language, by the way.
Every one of them, they use the language it was a war.
It was a war. Because they get the people to march off to war like that.
Oh, by the way, I just came across these showing you how they use war.
Look at that. Yeah.
War in the Gulf. Look at that.
Right here. You ready? Ready for this one?
U.S. News. Yeah, they don't have to do much in terms of changing the covers.
Your covers change a lot more than that.
America at war. What the hell do I give a damn what's going on in Kuwait and Iraq?
Oh, and lies. Remember that the Iraqi soldiers are going into hospitals and stabbing kids in incubators?
Remember that one? Oh, yeah.
Oh, and who said it?
The girl that was the father was tied into the deal?
A total lie? And what the hell do I care?
What the hell do I care?
But what I'm saying is, when all else fails, they take you to war.
All things are connected in our global nomic trend forecasting.
I just went over Silicon Valley Bank, bringing it into the banking system, telling you what's going on in the buses, telling you what's going on in occupancy rates.
When all else fails, they take you to war.
The people march off to war like that and Biden's popularity rating now is back at its low.
It was at the low after the Afghan disaster when he pulled out.
It went back up when we went To support Ukraine, our loving Ukrainian people, the most corrupt country in Europe, according to the European Union.
And look how his popularity went up.
Yeah, and it seems like they're pulling a wag the dog with Donald Trump now.
It's like, yeah, nobody look at the war.
Let's look at Donald Trump's affairs.
What's that? Yeah, like you could give a damn about that.
Yeah, exactly. That's all the news cycles this last week.
But that is really amazing, though, what you had there about the bus service going back 150 years.
So that was about a decade after the Civil War.
They've had, even with a horse-drawn bus service, they've had that continuous service for 150 years.
That's a big economic change when things like that start disappearing.
Again, people have no idea of this.
They have no idea what's going on.
The damage that's been done with the COVID war is incalculable.
Yes. Incalculable.
Yeah. This is an article you were talking before about China.
This is the toilet paper record in New York Times.
She's brotherly hug with Putin.
It's us against the Americans.
Yeah. Yeah. A shotgun wedding, courtesy of Biden.
Yeah. And again, to show you the hypocrisy, U.S. launches airstrikes in Syria after drone attack kills U.S. contractor.
Oh, you mean a military, what do you call these guys?
Mercenary? Mercenary?
Yeah. Contractor.
Yeah. And what the hell is the United States doing in Syria?
Well, we're fighting them Isises.
We're getting them... No, you're stealing their oil.
You're stealing their oil.
You have no right being there.
The hell with you, Salenti!
I'm an American!
I am a coward!
I'm a little Lindsey Graham!
I love war, but I couldn't fight my way out of a paper bag!
Yeah. I'm just a piece of crap.
I'm a Mitch McConnell.
I'm a Peter Schiff.
I'm a little slimy scum telling you what to do.
How dare you say we shouldn't be in Syria?
That's right. Yeah, it's kind of interesting that we've seen this spat with Trump and the Democrats and the Manhattan melodrama that's going on there.
And they drag DeSantis into it.
He makes a statement about it, and then everybody jumps on him.
And so then the important thing about this, I think, Gerald...
First of all, they ignored what he had to say about CBDC, but then they talk afterwards, with all the pressure on him, he had said that what was going on in Ukraine was a territorial dispute.
In other words, not our business, right?
Yeah. Uh, he has to, uh, pull back and, and try to make alliances with the neocons.
And so now he's saying, yeah, now he's saying, uh, Putin is a war criminal.
He needs to be held accountable and we need to be there.
And it's all of a sudden he changes when he gets in trouble.
Uh, and they started coming after him with a criticism.
All of a sudden he jumps in with the neocons.
A coward, a little political coward, just like the rest of them.
Oh, that's the guy that went over to Israel, kissed the flag?
Oh, that guy?
Yeah. He signed the censorship bill in Israel.
What? He signed the censorship bill in Israel.
You know, censoring people from talking about Israel.
It goes to Israel to do it.
That's amazing. Yeah, because he's a Jewish vote in Florida.
Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah.
Israel airstrike hits Syria's Aleppo airport for the second time this month.
Well, I... How dare they bomb the Americans in Syria when the Israelis could kill anybody they want in Syria?
That's just fine.
Israel has a right to defend itself.
That's a war crime.
Israel, the United States, NATO could kill anybody they want anywhere, anyplace.
They're fine, but that Putin's a war criminal.
Not little Georgie Bush.
Not Barack Obama.
Not Bill Clinton.
No, no, no. How about Donald Trump?
I want that guy Soleimani out of there.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, let's kill him over there in Iraq.
Oh, let's destroy Venezuela.
We're going to put that guy Guaido in there.
Oh, you forgot all about that, everybody, huh?
Oh, what's a Guaido?
Yeah, a little clown of nothing.
That Europe and the United States is the real president of Venezuela.
You forgot that story?
Oh, and they cut off all the oil coming in so the gangsters here can make more money?
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, Lamborghinis and bread lines.
That's what you wind up with a communist that they have in there.
It truly is amazing, and we just keep marching into it.
I thought it was very interesting, that clip with Colonel McGregor, because he didn't use the phrase that you always use, but it was essentially the same thing, that the business of America is war, the business of China is business.
And that's the point he was making in terms of, yeah, they're trying to broker a peace deal.
We don't want to have anything to do with it.
It's absolutely insane, as Colonel McGregor was saying, even if you didn't want it, the smart thing to do diplomatically would be to say, well, we'll take a look at it.
And they say, I'm not going to do that.
But they just come out with the quiet part.
They're shameless about their warmongering.
Yep, yep. China hits back at U.S. criticism of Ukraine.
Um, this is, this is an article from, uh, uh, Global Times, Chinese newspaper.
Uh, China on Wednesday hit back a criticism of Bay, blah, blah, blah.
National Security Council spokesman John Kirby told reporters that China was, quote, not impartial due to their relationship with Russia.
The Chinese foreign ministry replied, quote, the U.S. says China's position cannot be seen as impartial.
Does that mean pouring weapons into the conflict should be seen as impartial?
Does that mean causing the crisis to escalate should seem impartial?
Chinese spokesman Wang said.
Yep. Wang described Xi's trip to Moscow as a journey of friendship.
Cooperation and peace.
And called upon the U.S. to stop stoking the conflict in Ukraine.
We call on the U.S. to reflect on its own role in Ukraine's issue.
Stop fueling the flames.
Stop deflecting the blame on China.
We will continue to stand firm on the side of peace and dialogue.
Yeah, truly it's amazing. I was just talking earlier in the program, Gerald, about how you have Blinken as well as the National Security Advisor.
They're all coming out and saying, no, LGBT values are what we're going to push.
That's our core value. We're going to push it in Africa.
You've got these African nations saying, why are you telling us what to do with this stuff?
Well, we're going to do that too.
The Chinese are not going to do that.
And they're bragging about the fact, every time I meet with Saudi Arabia, I hector them about the way they treat homosexuals or whatever.
So they're always about that.
And they don't care at all about having access to these resources in Africa as China does.
I mean, they should be looking for a channel as to how they're going to have these, even if they don't care about the economics of it, at least from a strategic standpoint.
But they're burning all their bridges.
Their priorities are so incredibly messed up.
And they don't seem to have a sense of where things are militarily.
I read an interesting article about hypersonic missiles that Russia has, Even China doesn't have them, and the U.S. doesn't have them either.
And, of course, when you look at what they're capable of doing, the article Gerald was saying that in the very beginning of the war, they took just one of these things and wiped out a depot that was supposedly hardened for a nuclear bomb.
That because they could drop it straight down at a very high altitude, the kinetic energy plus the explosives, it devastated with just one of these hypersonic missiles, that depot.
And they said just last week they just sent out six of them simultaneously.
Which would be enough to essentially take out all six US aircraft carriers simultaneously.
That's what this person said the message was with that.
Because there is no defense against it.
It travels so fast that they don't have an effective defense against those things.
It is a suicidal course that we're on, whether you're talking about trying to make alliances with countries, fronting all of these countries, bossing everybody around, and then suicidally trying to push into a war that we don't have the weapons and equipment to do well in.
How could you say that?
America, look at the great victory they had in Afghanistan.
How about Vietnam? Yeah.
Look at America's great victory in Iraq.
Yeah. Haven't won a war since World War II. Look at the people in charge.
Yeah, that's right. That guy Mealy?
Yeah. Is that how you pronounce the name?
Mealy or Miley?
I don't know. The guy that's the head of the...
Yeah, I know who you're talking about.
I read about him. I don't watch TV. Look at the pictures in the paper.
This guy got his baggy eyes.
He looks like hell.
He looks like a Muppet caricature of a general.
That big blimp Lloyd Austin, our defense secretary, used to be a general in Iraq.
How many people did you kill over there, Austin?
Oh, the guy whose last job was sitting on the board of directors of Raytheon, the second largest defense contractor?
Yeah, that guy. Look at the people!
Yeah. Look at them!
Look at them! Oh, and that guy nearly shows up all the time with his little ribbons and his medals.
What are you, still the Boy Scouts?
Yeah. Again, you're talking about the destruction.
And what...
This is...
Britain defends moves to supply shells with depleted uranium.
You know about that, right?
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. They're giving depleted uranium to the Ukrainians in this war.
Yeah. Depleted uranium is uranium.
The Russians are saying you're basically ramping up a nuclear war.
Yeah. This is the quote from this week, March 23rd, from Russia's ambassador to the United States.
Commenting, he was trying, is responding to statements by U.S. officials that depleted uranium munitions are a standard type of weapon that's been used for decades and doesn't pose any heightened risks.
So in other words, the United States has been slaughtering people in Iraq, in Yugoslavia, in Afghanistan, in Libya, in Syria with depleted uranium.
That's just fine because America's doing it.
Here's his quote. Commenting on this kind of nonsense is really hard.
US officials have reached a new low with their irresponsible statements.
There is a continuous flow of lethal weapons to Ukraine, which are used to annihilate civilians, residential areas, schools, hospitals, and kindergartens, he said.
He's talking about the Ukrainians, but the Western press never talks about bombing the hell out of the people in the eastern region that's killed over 14,000 of them that ignited the war.
But he doesn't talk...
Nobody talks about that.
Anatov said...
According to the statement from the embassy, quote, it seems that the enlightened West, led by Washington, has irrevocably decided to bring humanity to a dangerous line beyond which a nuclear Armageddon is looming ever more distinctly.
Yeah. Amazing.
And, of course, when they use those things, they're very effective as weapons, but...
When they use them, it's already been shown how it does leave behind nuclear residue.
It's kind of like a nuclear agent orange, the birth defects and all the rest of the things that have happened.
And it does it to the tank crews who use them as well, but they continue to use it.
It's one of these dirty weapons.
Did you see the member of the European Parliament, Claire Daly, as she took on the people there?
It was a great speech.
Great. Great speech. And said, all you can do is talk about which weapons you're going to send next.
You have absolutely no concern.
About the Ukrainian people that are being killed in all of this.
And there isn't. And they said from the very beginning, they're going to use them as cannon fodder.
They're going to use them as surrogates.
So, you know, the U.S. doesn't have to directly fight war with Russia.
But now you've got Poland itching to go.
Said, if the Ukrainians can't do it, we'll go in and do it.
And I think that's what a lot of this talk is, Gerald, in terms of...
Them saying, well, you know, the Ukrainians are not doing very well.
I think that is leading up to, well, we're just going to have to send in our troops to finish this job.
I think Poland has already started talking about that.
As I said, there's going to be a false flag or a nuclear exchange that's going to get the United States into this war.
You know, there was an interesting story about how the US was aiding India in its border dispute with China.
And India and China didn't want to escalate this by using heavy weapons.
And so they're fighting each other.
We had some people get killed. They were fighting each other with sticks and stones, Gerald.
And the U.S. was using satellite intelligence to give the Indians heads up on where the other guys were coming from.
I mean, there's not any kind of a war that we want to get into.
And I talked about it.
I said it's kind of a preview of what comes after World War III. You know, the quote that you always mention about Albert Einstein.
You know, the next war will be fought with sticks and stones.
So I guess they're getting a preview about how they can do that.
Again, you know, with China and Russia and India and Brazil the BRICS they've had enough of American hegemony both on the economic end and the military end.
They're fed up with America.
They've had it.
And I would ask anybody simply NATO And the United States versus Russia and China, the winner is everybody loses, but you're not going to beat the Russians and the Chinese.
That's right. Yep.
And they have...
This is very important, by the way, going back to the banking thing.
They raised interest rates, of course, and that, you know, it's bringing down the equity markets.
We're going to go into...
The reality of recession will hit by this summer.
It's going to happen.
Again, we write the details in the magazine about the facts.
You're looking at traffic coming into the Los Angeles area seaports, the busiest in America.
It's down 38% from last year.
The traffic. So that shows you the retailers aren't buying stuff.
They're not pumping up their businesses because they know this thing is going down.
So here is the scenario of our forecast.
When they begin to lower interest rates, which they're going to do definitely before the 2024 elections, if not sooner, the dollar is going to crash.
The dollar is only strong because interest rates are high.
When they start lowering interest rates, the dollar is going to go down.
Again, all things are connected.
We were talking before about the Chinese-Russians and BRICS. They've had enough of the dollar.
They don't want it anymore.
When the dollar weakens, it's going to be the end of the dollar.
America, unfortunately, we became the nation that our founding fathers fought against.
Yes. The British Empire.
That's right. We have become like the sun never sets on the British Empire.
We have become that same kind of arrogant, militaristic, murderous nation that our founding fathers fought against.
Yes. And then you go back to when the British Empire declined after World War I. Bye-bye pound.
Welcome dollar. And now you're going to see bye-bye dollar.
It's probably going to be, it's not going to be a major currency because we believe there's going to be digital currencies for every country.
You think it's going to be a global digital currency?
No, I don't think one. I think they'll each have their own.
And that's what they'll be dealing with.
Here's mine. I'll deal with yours.
You deal with mine. Each one will deal individually.
It won't be a universal one.
No, they'll fight it. China and Russia want no part of the globalization of what's happening.
They don't want to be part of that.
They have their own deal.
As you said, nobody knows about the bridge, the road...
Belt and Road Initiative.
Belt and Road Initiative.
And people have no idea about that.
And they have no idea about what China and Russia are doing with their pipelines and all the other things.
And by the way, that's why the United States invaded Syria.
Because Iran was putting a pipeline through Syria and that they could bring out oil into the Mediterranean to get it out.
That's right. And they didn't want that to happen.
But people have no idea about that.
Just like they don't have any idea about the overthrow that you mentioned earlier about Vicky Yanukovych, the democratically elected president of Ukraine in 2014, brought to you by Barack Obama, Victoria Nuland, John McCain.
May that arrogant piece of crap rot in hell.
Yeah. Oh, they don't even...
It was funny because, you know, even in the UK at the beginning of all this, he says, yeah, we've beaten the Russians in Crimea once before.
And it's like... Well, in that Crimean War, Crimea belonged to Russia.
And you were there. I mean, that's a pretty famous war.
It's got the Charge of the Light Brigade and Lord Cardigan and all the rest of the stuff.
And it's like, you know, but I guess even people in the UK don't understand that history.
Crimea was part of Russia as long as the U.S. has been around.
But... You know, when we look at this going forward, in terms of timing of market crashes, timing of imposition of the CBDC, the Federal Reserve announced, since we last talked, that they're going to roll out the wholesale phase of this CBDC in July.
They call it FedNow.
It doesn't offer any functionality that we don't already have with Zelle or Cash App or Venmo.
Many of these things you can send cash 24-7, 365, but that's how they're selling it.
But we know that it's the first step.
And the European Union said this last week, Gerald, that in the fall they expect to roll out their CBDC.
So I'm wondering if, you know, I think the CBDC is not going to be rolled out unless there is a financial collapse.
Do you think that's in the cards for this fall?
Some kind of a major, major collapse that would allow them to reset the financial system?
The collapse is already happening. Oh, yeah, it's already happening.
But, I mean, is it going to accelerate? Because usually we have these big stock market crashes in October, that type of thing.
Yeah, it may even happen by the end of this month.
Hmm. Again, you go back to our Trends Journal in February.
We warned, it's right there, March economic and equity market madness.
And here we are in March.
The banks failed.
This is just the beginning.
You're seeing what's going on with the equity markets.
Again, there's a thing called the plunge protection team.
Yeah. Isn't that a nice name for market riggers?
Sounds like Nixon's plumbers, doesn't it?
Yeah. So what they're going to do is they're going to try to jack up the equity markets so the bigs get out, get more money out of it, and then it's going to crash.
The markets, it's finished.
Yeah. And again, you're looking at gold prices.
I mean, gold broke over what?
On Thursday, it hit...
Over 2,000. 2,004.
Mm-hmm. Now, as we're speaking, it's around $1,996.
In our magazine, we're saying 2023, you're not going to see gold below 2023, this year.
Gold has an opportunity to break, to be easily $2,200 an ounce, easily.
And again, when they lower interest rates, the only thing that's keeping gold at the level it is, is the stronger dollar.
When the dollar goes, bye-bye gold.
Yeah, it's gone over the $2,000.
When the dollar goes, gold goes up, not buy by gold, buy by dollar.
It's over. The dollar is finished.
It's coming to its end.
Yeah, it went over $2,000 for the first time since all that March madness three years ago.
I remember you calling it March Madness that is coming.
Talk about Switzerland.
Everybody's talking about how that's now become a banana republic in terms of the way they handled this.
They had to merge the number one and number two banks.
You've got a lot of people who are hopping mad because they got zero out of their bonds.
They were bailed in at 100%.
And, of course, these were unusual financial instruments that they had set up, and the fine print said they could do that.
Nevertheless, you've got a lot of people who are going to sue them.
They said you put in stockholders and their equities ahead of these bonds that you had there.
So there's a lot of...
What do you make of that?
Is that something that's going to...
Be like a Lehman Brothers for Europe?
What is happening in Switzerland?
Is that going to be contained in the country?
Let's look at who they, what bank bought them out, UBS? Yeah, UBS, they merged.
The Swiss government forced that merger, yeah.
Yeah, UBS that they had a bailout in 2008 that was going for us, that UBS? That's right.
Yeah. You're financially insolvent, but you solve it by taking two financially insolvent banks and you put them together.
Again, it's a rigged game.
The Federal Reserve dumped in $29 trillion between 2007 and 2010 to bail out the banksters.
That's according to the Levy Institute of Bard College.
So I'm not making that number up.
They're going to do anything they can.
That's the other thing to artificially prop this up.
So going back to the people that got screwed out of that money, you know, they were getting like 9% interest on their dough.
So it was a gamble.
You know, so they lost it.
But let's look at what just happened with SVB, the Silicon Valley Bank.
You're only supposed to bail out the people that the FDIC insures for $250,000.
Yeah, that's right.
Oh, wait a minute, Salenti, take it easy.
We got our buddies in there that are losing a lot of money.
We're going to bail them out too.
And they didn't call it a bank bailout.
Yeah. Yeah.
They're going to do anything they want, anytime, to benefit whoever they wish.
That's right. That's the end of the story.
That's right. There's no legality in anything.
I thought that the markets would crash in 2012.
They didn't teach me about quantitative easing and zero interest rate policy in Economics 101 at graduate school.
They made up this stuff.
So what I'm saying to you and everyone listening, they're going to make up and try to do anything they can to keep artificially propping this up.
That's right. And again, most important, why would anybody...
With a brain bigger than a pea, swallow the crap spewing out of the mouth of a little clown like Jerome Powell, who was, as we call in Italian, Miss Faciarbut, Miss Janet Yellen.
That means ugly, stupid face.
Why would you believe them when they told us, Salenti, in your trends journal, you're full of crap.
Back in 2021, there is no inflation.
It's only temporary.
And then they went on to lie as inflation kept going up.
Why, you stupid jerks?
It's no inflation.
It's only transitory.
So now they're telling you what they're doing.
And what it means and how it's going to work.
How dumb could you be?
That's right. Yeah, I had played earlier in the show a clip where Senator Kennedy was talking to Yellen and he said, so let me get this clear.
Your administration is calling for a $4.7 trillion tax increase?
And she goes, let me see here.
And she shuffles some papers around and goes, yeah, $4.7 trillion.
And it's like... It's like that's nothing.
And you know, Gerald, as you're talking about quantitative easing and all the rest of the stuff, and we've got the modern monetary theory that they've come up with, where deficits don't matter.
So if deficits don't matter, why do they have to stick us with a $4.7 trillion bill?
Well, it's because they want our money and they don't want us to have any savings whatsoever.
I mean, there's absolutely no justification if they believe in MMT. There's absolutely no justification for them to tax us at all if the deficits don't matter.
But the deficits all of a sudden matter to them if they can raise taxes to keep us from being able to...
Accumulate savings or have any capital formation.
They'll resort to taxes, but not for them.
And they don't care about the deficits except when it comes to taxes, right?
Nothing's changed.
Yeah. Yeah.
That's your Trends Journal cover from 2012.
Yeah. JPMorgan Chase...
Wells Fargo, Goldman Sachs.
And that one guy looks like George Bush.
It's driving the money changers out of the temple.
And what happens three days later?
Oh, it's coming. Easter time.
Good Friday.
Drives the money changers out of the temple.
You're on the cross. You're dead.
That's who they are.
They're a crime syndicate.
Yeah. Yeah.
I say to people, why would you keep money in the bank when they're giving you nothing and it costs you to borrow money from them?
Anybody to me...
You know, do what you want to do.
We don't give financial advice.
Number one, we're saying gold is going to keep...
Again... If you go to the subscribe page of Trends Journal, you'll hear what different people like Robert Kiyosaki, Gary Null, a whole bunch of them say about the Trends Journal.
And one of them is Eric King from King World News.
It's a real gold site.
He said, Gerald, he said in September of 2022, you said gold bottom.
You nailed it. That's right.
We nailed it. And we're saying it's going to take off.
Going back to the banking system.
Holiday. We're going to call a bank holiday.
Isn't that a nice name? They did it once before.
Yeah. They lock down the banks.
Holiday. What holiday?
You can't get your money out. They're going to come out with a digital currency to say something like, the Russians hacked our banking system.
You lost all your money, but don't worry about it.
We came up with a new one.
It's called the digital dollar.
Oh, you'll love it. In God we trust.
They're going to do something.
Again, they're going to come out with a digital currency, and they're going to make up an excuse to get rid of all the debt load.
It's a crime syndicate.
They're murderers. Again, don't believe me.
Believe Jesus Christ.
Oh, the guy that became violent got a whip, the Prince of Peace, because of what they were doing to the people, the banksters?
Yeah. Yeah, that's really amazing.
He became violent. It's truly amazing to see how, you know, they just, it's never enough.
It's just like John D. Rockefeller when he was asking, you know, how much money is enough?
He says, just a little more. And they keep tightening everything, you know, taking the interest rates that they pay to us down until they're less than 1%, but they keep jacking their stuff up to absurd markets.
Usury levels, you know, 20-30% on these credit cards, especially if somebody gets delinquent, or even if they're not delinquent.
If they are making their payments, but they happen to notice that they got a big medical bill that they're trying to pay off, then they jump their interest rates up on that.
It's just amazing how predatory the whole system has become.
And that's why I mentioned, you know, that $4.7 trillion, you look at things like that, along with the 87,000 new IRS agents.
What does that tell us about what is on the way?
In addition to the CBDC, I think those agents are there to confiscate wealth from people, but certainly to confiscate taxes.
It's amazing how they're ramping all of these enforcement mechanisms up as they're trying to push us into a digital slavery, and yet nobody seems to want to talk about that.
It's amazing. America has lost its fight.
Yeah. You know, look what's going on in France.
Oh, yeah. The people taking to the streets, millions of them.
There's 64 million.
We had the rally, the Rage Against the War Machine rally, where I was a speaker in D.C. Had Ron Paul, Tulsi Gabbard, Jimmy Dore, myself, Max.
Top. About 4,000 people show them.
Yeah. That's right.
That's it. There's no fight in this country.
There's no fight. Oh, by the way, I'm going to have another peace and freedom rally here in Kingston, New York, on May 27th.
Just a little note that I'm fighting for peace.
I put my money... Where my heart is and my soul and my mind, so I'm doing it all.
And you're talking about how they're taking over everything and with all the IRS agents they're hiring, how they're taxing us.
This is the language they used in the New York Times talking about the meeting between Putin and Xi.
He goes...
The leaders talked about plans to enhance economic cooperation and draw more Chinese investors to Russia.
They declared, you ready?
Their admiration for each other's authoritarian rule.
Yeah. Is that propaganda?
Did you think Xi said to Putin, I love what an authoritarian you are, unlike Xi.
Unlike, hey, I'm Andy Cuomo, lock down your business, I'll tell you what to do, stand six feet apart.
Oh, that's not authoritarian.
He's the governor, he should tell you what to do.
A little Gavin Newsom, a witness with me, a little DeWine, a little...
Oh, they're not authoritarian.
No, no, no. Oh, and all of what they're doing to us now with stealing our money and raising our taxes, that's not authoritarian.
They could do anything they want to us.
We are a democracy and we kill people all over the world to bring freedom and democracy to their countries as well.
Well, you know, I can imagine we've had George W. Bush saying, I wish I could just tell people what to do like the Chinese dictators can.
And then we had Trudeau a few years before he started acting like a Chinese dictator.
They asked him, you know, what other than Canada, what is the country that you most admire?
And he said, China, because, you know, they can protect the environment.
They can just tell everybody what to do.
Of course, they're not doing anything in China.
To the things that we're told are supposed to protect the environment.
They completely ignore all that.
But yeah, we see these people like Trudeau and George W. Bush.
They really do admire tyrants and they all act like that.
I mean, they, you know. Oh, yeah. It's just amazing.
Again, authoritarian. Look at that guy Trudeau did to the freedom truckers.
Yeah. Stealing their money.
Couldn't donate to them. Putting them in jail.
Mm-hmm. An authoritarian?
Oh, that Putin is a war criminal, unlike George W. Bush.
We're going to get that guy Osama Bin Laden dead or alive.
Yeah, yeah. And 88% of the people swallowed his crap.
Oh, the George W. Bush that lied us into the Iraq war.
Why? He's not a war criminal.
His daddy was George Bush and his grandpa, what was his grandpa?
Prescott Bush? Yeah.
That was doing deals with Hitler, that guy?
Yeah. Yeah, that's right.
Yeah, exposed by Smedley Butler trying to do a coup against the government.
But I guess they were able to get that coup done.
It's been done in many different ways.
You know, amazing when you talk about people not understanding where things are in this spat that has erupted between Trump and DeSantis.
I thought it was interesting that Trump starts coming after DeSantis for lockdowns.
Yeah. He didn't lock anything down until, I'm not excusing what DeSantis did.
I criticized him at the time for doing it.
But, you know, he was one of the later ones to do it.
And then he was one of the first ones to pull it back.
But it was all produced, you know, funded by Trump.
I've talked about this many times.
I said Fauci was the director.
Trump was the producer.
He paid governors to do all this stuff.
It was amazing to me that he can come out at this point.
What is amazing about all this?
Is that Trump can hang that on other people and not take any responsibility and that the MAGA cult will buy that.
They will excuse all that.
They'll look the other way. They won't pay any attention to what was actually done in 2020.
It just still amazes me that he's able to get away with it.
We saw it yet again. Again, the people are dumb.
I mean, he's a narcissistic nothing of a clown.
Another daddy's boy, by the way.
His daddy left him all the dough.
Yeah. Yeah, that's right.
You know, I talk about the authoritarian.
You know, I was cleaning up some newspapers, and I got a whole bunch of stuff, you know.
By the way, this is what I do with all the articles, and they go to the writers.
I underline all the salient points of the articles and make notes to them.
But here's one. You ready for this?
Mm-hmm. Two judges tell defendants to be vaccinated.
This is August 24th, 2021.
New York Times. The defendant was charged with a number of minor crimes, including drug possession and shoplifting.
He was prepared to plead guilty and prosecutors agreed.
But a Bronx judge approving the deal added his own Condition.
The defendant had to get a COVID-19 vaccine.
Yeah. Amazing.
Judge Rakoff argued, how about Jerkoff, argued that it fell to him to determine whether Peterson, this is the guy seeking release, represented a danger to the community.
The unvaccinated, this is a quote, Did pose such a danger given their enhanced risk of infecting other innocent people and even potentially causing their deaths.
Yeah. And you know, they are still...
America? America?
A judge? I would love to see this guy man to man.
Yeah. You little slimy, arrogant boy.
Yeah. You're not a judge.
You're just a piece of scum.
Who the hell are you to tell me what to do or anybody else?
What to put in their body?
You don't know crap.
They're not infecting other people.
A total lie.
Oh, the vaccine that they sold is 96% efficacy rate?
That you only need two shots, that vaccine, and now you need your booster and keep them coming.
Oh, and all the people like the Bidens and the Obamas and all those little jerks that people call celebrities that all got vaxxed up and got the virus.
Oh, we won't talk about that.
Authoritarian? Look what's happened to this country.
It's amazing to see that we're still having people being turned away for a kidney transplant.
Turned away to die because they're not vaccinated.
And that is still going on.
We just had a story this last week.
And, of course, I'm sure you saw the clip from that NPR thing called American Masters where you had Fauci and the mayor of D.C. going door to door.
And they were getting...
You saw that, right?
And the one guy who is...
Yeah.
He owned them.
And the mayor at one point says, well, the only reason that we're standing here face to face is because I've had my vaccine.
It's like, well, then fine.
Then if you think that it works, then you don't have to be bothered with me.
But he shouted at them as they're running away from him.
You're just selling fear.
And that's what it's been from the very beginning.
That's all it is.
Yeah.
He had their number, didn't he?
Yeah.
Just amazing.
No, it's disgusting.
You and I, we all died.
You know, I had a big rally.
I'm hated up here. I had a big freedom rally when everything was locked down in 2020 in July.
And all the people that were here, we all died.
This isn't me. We all died from the virus.
You died. We all died.
You were there. You've been at our rallies.
Yeah. Unvaccinated. That's right.
Unmasked. Yeah. Yeah.
Well, people, I go to the health food store over here because, you know, I buy organic things.
60% of the people are still wearing masks.
That's amazing. Yeah, that is just fear, uncertainty, doubt.
And that's what they're selling us now in terms of an economic aspect.
But there's real reason to fear now because things really are starting to snowball very quickly.
It is amazing to see what has happened in just the last week.
Financially, things are moving very fast, but you predicted it.
March Madness. I remember you saying that.
That's when everything was going to pop down.
You've always been at the forefront of everything, Gerald, with Trends Journal.
And I just want to tell everybody.
Yes, go ahead. You know, by the way, I just came up with this article, too.
Here it is. 1999.com this.
We said the.com was going to bust by March.
No, we said by the second quarter of 2000 it'll explode.
It went in March. We said by the second quarter of 2000 it happened in March.
Again, for the same exact reason why it busted then.
And that was speculation.
They were doing things that didn't make any sense when the whole tech revolution began.
October and March are the two volatile months.
October, because it's the end of the summer and reality starts setting in.
In the summer, people aren't paying attention to it.
By September, the data's coming in hard.
October, the crash comes.
Same thing with March.
It's after the holidays.
You got January, February, then March.
It starts getting bad again.
The reality is set in.
We are going to go into a deep recession.
Everybody's going to feel it and know it by the summertime.
Wow. Wow.
Well, that's important.
That's important to know. And it is always, and as I've said many times, and as we've shown you more times this time, Gerald has always been ahead of the curve in terms of trends.
