	The End to free minds You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	As the clock strikes 13, it's Tuesday, the 18th of April, year of our Lord, 2023.
	Today we're going to talk about the recent moves by the UN. Moves to decriminalize pedophilia.
	It's been coming for a long time.
	I had several people send me articles and said, you've been talking about this for a long time, it's now happening.
	I've said for the longest time that if we're going to pretend that young children, not even minors, but elementary, kindergarten kids, can even determine what gender they are, We'll
	We'll be right back.
	Stay with us.
	Well, as I said, I had several people send me emails and say, as I said, I had several people send me emails and say, yeah, you, you, new UN backed legal recommendations, normalize sex Say, outraged critics.
	And Peter said, well, you predicted this.
	It's like, I'm afraid I did.
	It doesn't make me feel any better to see that it's true, but it's been true to a large degree.
	This has been marching in this direction.
	That's why when I said yesterday, you know, so is this vaccine mandate and the passport, is this Mark of the Beast?
	Yes, yes. Because this is grooming, it's pedophilia, even as they're in the early stages of it.
	It's a continuum, you have to understand, right?
	And so it will get worse, but that's what it is.
	And that's what it's been for a while.
	And so this is the latest thing is now that they're becoming more bold about it.
	And that's the issue, right?
	It becomes more weaponized, more overt, more unashamed as these things are creeping out of the darkness.
	They're like rats who start to get really, really bold.
	They don't run from you. They don't hide from you.
	They start to attack you.
	New UN-backed legal recommendations normalize sex with minors.
	They outrage critics, and this is coming from Fox News.
	Children may consent to sex with adults.
	This has been the plan all along, said a social media influencer.
	Well, yeah, this is somebody that they picked up on.
	A shocking report issued by international legal experts of the U.N. appears to open the floodgates to normalize sex with minors.
	Quote, sexual conduct involving persons below the domestically prescribed minimum age of consent may be consensual, in fact.
	That's what the UN says.
	The Geneva-based International Commission of Jurists wrote this with an assist from UNAIDS in the office of the UN's High Commissioner for Human Rights.
	Now, we've always called that statutory rape.
	We've always said that, you know, in a situation like I've talked about, Stephen Tyler from Aerosmith being sued because they removed the statute of limitations, which is extremely small for a reason.
	You have so many people who occupy the highest levels of our institutions, whether they're Marxists or pedophiles or perverts or whatever.
	They have taken over the institutions.
	A long march through the institutions has been successful.
	And so they make sure, especially in politics, that they've got a short statute of limitations.
	And that was removed for whatever reason, temporarily.
	Temporarily removed.
	By California, England, put it back in.
	And so in this window of opportunities, I pointed out several times, you have some high-profile individuals being sued.
	Steven Tyler with Aerosmith, you have the child stars that were sexually exploited in Romeo and Juliet, Franco Zeffirelli's film.
	Now he manipulated them, lied to them, exposed them literally.
	And they're suing the studio because Franco Zeffirelli is dead.
	And so this has always been statutory rape, even if somebody consents to it at a statutory rape.
	Why? Because we would always say, well, you know, a 15-, 16-year-old doesn't have the maturity to be able to really consent to this.
	They're too easy to manipulate, too easy to gaslight.
	So then what are we talking about when we talk about kids in kindergarten or pre-kindergarten?
	You're showing them gender unicorns and things like that?
	This is overt pedophilia.
	They push back and say, it's not grooming.
	Oh, yes, it is.
	It is classical grooming.
	Don't tell your parents what we're doing.
	This is institutionalized grooming in the schools.
	All of this stuff. You know, the pictures, the books, the porn books that are there.
	We got a big Republican donor.
	This last election.
	Gave nearly $8 million to the Republicans.
	And he comes out and says, well, I said, I've had it with Ron DeSantis.
	You know, the abortion stuff, the book bans in schools.
	What books are we talking about, pal?
	We're talking about pornography books to kids.
	How-to books to do very...
	I'll just put it this way.
	A lot of the stuff that they do I've never heard of.
	It's perversions.
	It's degeneracy. Push to kids at a very young age.
	So, pal, take your $8 million and I'll tell you where you can stick your $8 million.
	Get out! We don't need you in anything that we're involved in.
	You're not welcome here.
	We're not going to win with an $8 million pedophile.
	This guy who wants to kill babies...
	And sexually groom kids, and it's like, okay, well, even the half measures that DeSantis is doing, this is why I've been critical about DeSantis, they're half measures.
	But understand that most Republicans do zero measures to do it, and the donors don't want anything done.
	And so if you're going to get these rich, billionaire pedophiles telling the politicians what to do, we're going to have a situation where even if we win, we lose.
	They're fighting against God.
	God hates God.
	This manipulation of children is just beyond belief.
	And if you don't hate it, you've got a problem.
	You've got a problem.
	He's got lots of money.
	And the love of money is the root of all evil.
	And if the Republican Party wants that money and loves that money, As we have seen for the longest time, that's exactly what happens.
	They become evil. Going back to the UN, the report, Principles for a Human Rights-Based Approach to Criminal Law, prescribing conduct associated with sex, reproduction, drug use, HIV, homelessness, and poverty.
	It doesn't actively call for decriminalizing sex between adults and minors, but it states that children have both the capacity and the legal right to make sexual decisions.
	This has always been baked into the UN. I've got a couple of short videos that I'm going to play coming up here, clips I did to try to explain this issue to people 13 years ago.
	The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, by saying that children have rights, you're saying that children have maturity.
	By saying children have maturity, you can say that they consent to sex.
	Now, we still have to treat them as children in some areas where children The government doesn't want anybody at any age to have a gun or to smoke or to have a car to drive, things like that.
	We're going to make it very, very difficult for kids.
	And even technically, if you can get your driver's license, they'll make it so difficult for you to drive.
	That you won't get it, even into your mid-twenties, unless you've got a lot of money.
	It was released on March 8th in recognition of International Women's Day.
	There you go. Replacing the women with the transgender agenda.
	The transgender agenda has always been pedophilia.
	From day one.
	That's what it was about.
	The UN is full of pedophiles, said a former NHL star and Canadian Olympic gold medalist on Twitter.
	And we've known that for a long time, haven't we?
	So, in this context, the International Commission of Jurists added in the report, in this context, the Enforcement of Criminal Law...
	Should reflect the rights and the capacity of persons under 18 years of age to make decisions about engaging in consensual sexual conduct?
	No. No. This is, you can always say, well, the kid consented to it.
	You can always manipulate the kid and groom the kid, and that is exactly what is happening in the elementary schools right now.
	The shocking recommendations have unfolded at bewildering speed, and that's the key thing.
	As we said, how do we go bankrupt morally?
	Well, we do it gradually, then suddenly.
	We're in the suddenly stage right now.
	We've gone over the cliff, and we're headed down into the abyss, and it is accelerating.
	I say that as a society.
	We don't have to follow them.
	We can go our own way.
	And, you know, that's the good thing about this.
	That you can make up your mind what you're going to do.
	We can watch society go to hell in a handbasket, and it's going to be bad for us because God will judge us as a society.
	You know, when we are, just as he told Israelites, we're taken into Babylonian captivity.
	You know, you've got the book of Jeremiah, which is just this, you know, it's the way I feel so many days.
	It's like, just look at this, look at that, it's horrible.
	You know, this whole thing is depressing to read, and yet in the middle of it, You know, Jeremiah 29, what everybody likes.
	I know the plans I have for you.
	What he tells the people, he says, you're going to be living in this society.
	You're going to be in captivity.
	They said, nevertheless, you know, build, grow your food, get your kids married, keep your culture, right?
	Keep your culture. Do the normal things.
	Don't be influenced by these people.
	Wall it off in your mind, in your family.
	Build your buildings.
	Do your work. Have your kids.
	Train your kids. All the rest of the stuff.
	And you can do that. And there's going to be a light at the end of the tunnel.
	A light at the end of our life, but maybe even during our life.
	That's the key thing. He says, yeah, pray for them because, you know, it's going to work for the peace of that society if you can.
	You know, we're not called to be, you know, to live a monastic life.
	We need to be actively involved with the culture to try to pull it back, just even for our own good, right?
	Do you really want to live in Sodom?
	Do you really want to have these people banging on your door?
	Give us your kids all the time?
	No. So we want to push back against that.
	But we don't ever have to join them in any of this stuff.
	And we don't have to acknowledge any of this as being correct.
	Resist that pressure.
	Do not live by that lie.
	Each development suggests that people in positions of authority have worked to break traditional legal bounds, societal structures, and once universal taboos for the purpose of sexualizing children.
	That's exactly right.
	That's the commentary from Fox News.
	They got it right, surprisingly.
	In addition, educators in many instances now brazenly state that parents have limited rights over their children while their classrooms grow increasingly sexualized.
	Well, this has always been about that.
	And the guy who wrote the opinion, the key person doing it, says, From long years in the law and as a proudly gay man...
	He says in the foreword of this, the guy's name is Judge Edwin Cameron from the Constitutional Court of South Africa.
	He says, I know profoundly how criminal law signals which groups are deemed worthy of protection and which ones are deemed worthy of condemnation and ostracism.
	I do too. And so what's going to happen is, this is a reversal, this is an upside down, the pedophiles...
	Are being deemed as worthy of protection.
	The transgenders are worthy of protection.
	The drag queens are worthy of protection.
	The Christians and the families are condemned and ostracized.
	And we will be persecuted.
	So... Don't let that discourage you.
	Seriously. In one degree, nobody wants this, but in one degree, if we are persecuted, we know that that is something, if you believe in God, if you believe that it matters what you do in this life, It isn't like you say a prayer at some point in time, now you're done and there's nothing else really to do and you can live however you want to live.
	No. There is going to be a distinction as well based on what you do.
	God records what you do.
	To reward you in the face of this.
	The people who have been witnesses and who have died over this have a special reward.
	And there are other things.
	If you believe what the Bible says, you should be encouraged by this.
	It would be difficult, but it's only temporary.
	So, get ready for it.
	Discriminatory impact on groups identified...
	With the disapproved or stigmatized conduct.
	Yes, it used to be pedophiles, now it will be Christians.
	Flip it upside down.
	One of the last remaining taboos, I guess, you know, they're also starting to push cannibalism.
	They've been doing that for a couple of years.
	You know, cannibalism, bestiality, you know, those are still pretty much condemned, I guess.
	Although Hollywood is trying to groom us to accept at least cannibalism.
	But, you know, pedophilia, that was always, okay, no, no, no.
	Don't say that the LGBT movement is about pedophilia.
	Now they're openly embracing it, demanding it.
	Demanding. So Michael said this as well.
	He says, this is another article about encouraging pedophilia.
	International Planned Parenthood Federation now joins the UN Council on Human Rights.
	You see? Word. What a surprise.
	That Planned Parenthood would be a part of this.
	And of course, this is their international federation.
	So, you know, they have national groups, they have international groups.
	He writes, the transgender movement has served its purpose in redirecting the conversation to children being able to consent to sex with adults.
	Soon, transgenderism will be seen as bland in yesterday's news as the new marginalized group will be the pedophiles.
	Disgusting. And, you know, also, it's not just Planned Parenthood, but it's the Gates Foundation.
	Of course, the Gates family has been associated with Planned Parenthood now for at least Bill Gates' life and his parents' life as well.
	So at least two generations of this heavily involved in it.
	This article, also from Fox News, Gates funds millions to an NGO claiming that kids are born sexual.
	That 10-year-olds should learn about, quote, commercial sex work.
	That's prostitution. That's child trafficking.
	And that's Gates and Planned Parenthood pushing that.
	The sex ed organization said kids under 10 should learn as you grow up, you might start to be interested in people with diverse gender identities.
	I'll point out, I can't believe that this organization in the UK, I don't know anything about Channel 4, but they have Channel 4, which has actually got a program where they have naked men expose themselves to a panel of teenagers who are astonished.
	Oh, let's watch the reaction.
	How perverse is that?
	How perverse is that?
	It's just beyond description that they would openly do this on television and broadcast this into people's homes.
	What filth! What degeneracy!
	They call it Channel 4 there.
	It's not 4chan.
	It's Channel 4. People criticize 4chan.
	The government doesn't like 4chan.
	I'll tell you what, it's not as bad as Channel 4, I guess.
	I don't know. I haven't been on 4chan, but I have not seen anything like that program.
	The Gates Foundation, And I haven't seen that program.
	I've just read about it. Gates Foundation donates millions annually to NGOs, the International Planned Parenthood Federation, which is technically separate from the U.S. Non-profit.
	It has a lot of influence on global sex education.
	It has 120 independent organizations in 146 countries.
	It's received over $80 million from Gates.
	Isn't it amazing how big these institutions are?
	Isn't it amazing how evil they are?
	How pervasive they are globally?
	So, this is not really a surprise to find this, because one of the things we've talked about for the longest time when we talk about abortion is the fact that Planned Parenthood does not report statutory rapes.
	So, you've got a teenager who comes in, they give the kid an abortion, and they don't call the police.
	Like, you've got a teen coming in who's pregnant, there is statutory rape behind that.
	But Planned Parenthood had decided a long time ago that they didn't agree with statutory rape.
	And they weren't going to participate in the criminal prosecution.
	So in a sense, this is not really new.
	This has been around forever with Planned Parenthood.
	And they would give the kid an abortion and send him back to whoever it was, whether it's a boyfriend or family or something like that, that is victimizing this child.
	And now they have a new profit center.
	Planned Parenthood's new profit center is chemical sterilization and these hormone blockers and all the chemical stuff.
	They don't do, at least not yet, the genital mutilation, but they do the chemical mutilation and the other things.
	And they're working already with guidance counselors in schools with that.
	So, International Planned Parenthood Federation said sexual activity may be part of different types of relationships, including dating, marriage, or commercial sex work.
	There you go. See? As a society...
	We have always tried to...
	People understood, if they didn't agree with the moral principles of Judeo-Christian principles that have been there, Old and New Testament, that sex outside of marriage is wrong.
	Even if they didn't agree with that from a moral standpoint, they realized what a problem it was for society if you embraced that.
	But now, you know, sex outside of marriage, even prostitution, is fine.
	And all children, even 10 years old up, should be taught this.
	I'm sorry, children under 10, under 10.
	Children under 10 should be told, as you grow up, you may start to get interested in sex work and different gender types of things.
	They also suggested in multiple places in these documents that children are born sexual.
	All people are sexual beings.
	Let's just say it this way. All kids are sexual beings.
	Is that not pedophilia?
	Regardless of their age, said the Planned Parenthood International Federation, including the right to seek pleasure, the right to enjoy bodily autonomy.
	See? Autonomy from your parents, but not autonomy from the government.
	No, no, no. No, the government will tell you what you have to wear on your face.
	They'll tell you what you have to inject into your body.
	They'll prohibit you from certain activities or medications.
	You will not have any autonomy from From the government.
	But we want you to have autonomy from your parents.
	Got to get you away from the people who love you and who would otherwise protect you.
	We're going to turn you over to the teachers and to the government.
	As a matter of fact, one of the articles I got here, it's interesting to see, and I'm going to talk about this in detail later, when you look at what is happening in California, San Jose County, Has been very zealous to shut down churches during the pandemic,
	during the Trump pandemic. So, beginning in July, when Gavin Newsom said, okay, well, you know, they tried to pull it back a little bit and say, well, maybe we'll let you go to church if you do it like, you know, maybe 10% or something of the people, capacity of the building, and you stay six feet apart, and you wear a mask, and you don't sing, and that was it.
	A lot of churches said, oh really?
	Okay, we're tired of this now.
	At this point, this has been going on for several months.
	We're not seeing a pandemic in our society.
	And you're not going to tell us that we can't sing and worship.
	And so they just started meeting. And so San Jose was one of the most zealous counties.
	They put big fines against at least a half dozen churches.
	Six of them in particular were represented by the Pacific Justice Institute.
	And the Supreme Court, the U.S. Supreme Court, shut down a lot of these regulations in January of 2021.
	But from that period of time, you know, from August to January of 2021, they started accruing fines against people.
	They got rid of them for all but one church.
	That one church that they came after, and are still coming after, and they still, they just had a judge say $1.2 million.
	Here we are, two years later.
	More than two years later. That one church had a highly reported conflict between LGBT and the church.
	That's why this is happening.
	The other five churches who met?
	All right, all right. Well, let it go.
	But not that church.
	And you know why.
	And I do too. We'll talk about that coming up in more detail.
	During childhood, they say children should learn about the basic social conventions of privacy, nudity, and respect for others in relationships.
	Yeah, right. Objectification of these kids.
	Manipulation of these kids.
	Gates donated to the organization years before and years after the 2017 report was released.
	This is a report going back six years.
	But we know this has always been their policy.
	They haven't even tried to hide this, but they have open reports about it.
	So, again, we go back to this report coming from the UN that was just reported this week, released on International Women's Day, calling for decriminalization of all sexual activity.
	Why is this a surprise?
	When we see how they have worked so hard to keep the statute of limitations, even when you look at the Republican Party, for example, Dennis Astrid, I've talked about many times, wrestling coach.
	He was a pedophile in several cases of this.
	It eventually came out because one of his victims sued him decades later.
	He was the longest serving Speaker of the House, at least for the Republicans.
	And there was, if you remember in the early 2000s, there was a House page scandal.
	Sexual messages and things like that sent to some of these House pages who were teenagers.
	By Mark Foley.
	Now I remember when that happened and Dennis Hastert, who was Speaker of the House, a pedophile himself, although it wasn't publicly known, went on the Rush Limbaugh program and the two of them were, this is just Democrats, this is just party politics and all the rest of this stuff, right? You see how people, if you get caught up And this partisan politics, you know, my party versus their party and all the rest of it, you'll support pedophiles, you'll support Donald Trump, you'll support anybody.
	You'll just turn a blind eye to anything that's really happening.
	And they can control you to the extent that you justify pedophilia.
	Because, oh, it can't be true.
	And it's just, they're coming after my party.
	And so Dennis Hastert, the pedophile Speaker of the House, and Rush Limbaugh, well, this is just politics.
	No, it wasn't. They showed the evidence and he was driven out.
	And then eventually we found out the truth about Dennis Hastert.
	But because they had the statute of limitations, and I remember when this happened, I said, all right, if the people in Congress, now that their reputation has been damaged, because how many of them knew that about him?
	You think nobody knew that about him?
	You think Trump didn't know about Jeffrey Epstein?
	On the Lolita Express and the rest of this stuff and all the parties and the pictures that you've seen of it.
	You don't think he knew? You don't think the Republicans knew either?
	If they wanted to distance themselves from it, and again, maybe they didn't.
	A lot of them probably did not know.
	But just as Frank Ciprico said about the police in New York, he said every human institution is going to have bad people in it.
	How the institution reacts when the bad people are found out tells you about the institution, whether or not it's gone bad.
	And so now we know about Congress.
	We know they embraced pedophilia because they embraced Dennis Hastert.
	They had the opportunity to do something about it.
	They were going to get rid of the statute of limitations.
	Instead, what they did was they sent him to jail Because he tried to take out large amounts of money and structure the deposit so nobody would ask any questions about it.
	And that's supposedly a violation of law.
	It's just ridiculous that that would be a violation of law.
	You know, what is the justification, as I said many times?
	You could try to justify, well, we don't want structured deposits because we need to, you know, get your taxes paid and that type of thing.
	What's the point about money being taken out?
	How do they even justify that?
	Anyway, that's what they sent him to jail for.
	And the judge even referenced his pedophilia.
	They were sending him to jail immediately.
	We're being discovered as a pedophile, but they didn't want to change the statute of limitations, and they wanted to do it with an unjustified law.
	Though the UN experts say criminalizing offenses related to these issues constitute an attack on human rights.
	Well, you know, again, when we look at this and we look at Jeffrey Epstein and that first time that he was in court and they gave him a really light sentence, you know, okay, well, you get day release from the prison and so forth and so you get day release from the prison and so forth and And the deal, the sweetheart deal was put together by Alex Acosta, who became Trump's secretary of labor.
	The two people who were defending Jeffrey Epstein were Ken Starr, the guy who chose not to really go after Bill Clinton and who later chose after, you know, being the defender of Jeffrey Epstein.
	Ken Starr, who's held up as this Christian conservative icon by so many people, has now passed away.
	He also, at Baylor, a nominally Christian university, defended the football team against charges of sexual assault or whatever.
	I don't remember what they were, but it was something about the football team.
	He turned a blind eye to it, and that caused him to be kicked out of the football team.
	So then they put him on Fox News as a commentator, of course.
	He passed on, coming after Bill Clinton, For rape and violent sexual assault, besides all the financial irregularities, and came after him for perjury about a consensual relationship.
	Then he defends Jeffrey Epstein.
	Then he defends the football players who attacked women, like Bill Clinton did.
	And then he goes on Fox News.
	And so you have Ken Starr, you have Alan Dershowitz was the other one who was his defender.
	Alan Dershowitz has gone on record going back to 1997.
	There was an article that he wrote, an op-ed piece that he wrote.
	It was discovered by The New Yorker in 2019.
	They made it public again.
	Why did they do that? Well, because by that time, Alan Dershowitz was one of the key defenders of Donald Trump.
	And so they go back and they now care about the fact that he's pushing pedophilia in 1997.
	Saying, yeah, we need to lower the age of consent to 15.
	Alan Dershowitz, who also had connections to Epstein outside of the legal issues in terms of flights and things like that.
	So, why are we surprised about all this?
	This is why I say you never know what these people are about.
	Even working in and around them, as I have with some of these people, it is astounding to see what comes out later.
	Because you can't really imagine...
	This is the way they get us, right?
	Solzhenitsyn said that the big mistake that everybody makes is to say, well, totalitarianism cannot happen in my country.
	I've said many times the big mistake that people make is to think that these types of monstrous things that we tell you, these people are bragging about that they want to do, whether it is totalitarian aspects or the kind of monstrous things that they want to do to their kids, we just can't, as normal people, imagine that anybody would do something like that.
	That's the big problem, talking to people who have their kids still in a government school.
	And you tell them, well, look at what is happening.
	Look at the curriculum. Well, that's not happening in my school.
	It's happening in your state.
	No, not in my kids' classroom.
	It's happening in the school that your kid goes to.
	Not in my kids' classroom.
	And finally, they got to see the Zoom classes.
	They got to see that it was really happening in their classes.
	And so a lot of the kids, a lot of the parents got the kids out.
	And this article from Live Action says, minors, of course, cannot truly consent to sex with adults.
	The report also calls for all criminal laws relating to sex work to be abolished, which could serve to aid traffickers, pimps, and abusers, and politicians, and rock stars, and movie stars.
	This is why it's there.
	Those are the powerful. And billionaires.
	Billionaires who give $8 billion, $8 million to the Republican Party and say, you know, if you are going to fight abortion, and if you don't want explicit pornographic books shown to kids in elementary school, you're sanctimonious.
	Oh, yeah, just like Donald Trump said, although that was not Donald Trump.
	But that shows you where the Republican leadership is.
	Don't be fooled by their phony embrace of family and Christian values.
	It's just as phony as that mugshot of Trump hugging the American flag that you've seen so many times and mugging.
	This serves the abortion industry, which has aided traffickers and abusers, failing to report the abuse, as I mentioned before.
	That's exactly right.
	So, we're going to take a quick break.
	And when we come back, we're going to talk about something that's been going on that's much, much worse than the Bud Light stuff.
	And, yeah, it truly is amazing.
	And it really hasn't gotten much attention.
	And so 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, welcome back. And I've got a comment here from Rumble.
	Nick Ellenbecker, thank you for the tip.
	I appreciate that. He says, Uh, which I attend.
	He has a few projects underway and would be a great interview.
	All right, well, take a look at it.
	You know, I had an interview last night with, um, uh, Chuck, uh, uh, O'Challie.
	And, um, he is, uh, a very interesting interview.
	Uh, he does, um, he's, he's kind of really focused on the JFK assassination and he has, he's visually impaired and he says, uh, even a blind man cause he was going on here.
	And he does.
	And so we talked not so much about that.
	We talked about other things.
	And we actually got on to the foundation, the moral foundation of our country.
	He's not a Christian. I suggest, you know, when we look at situations like we've been through for the last several years, and we're going to go through it again, they've left all the stuff in place.
	You know, they've rehearsed it annually for 20 years.
	They did a beta test.
	They subjected all of us to this stuff for two years.
	And all the psychological gaslighting and media control and everything, they're going to bring it back.
	Right now, they're letting all that harden.
	They're letting that normalize.
	And they're adding new structures of things to do.
	So it's all going to come back. And if you want to fight that, you better understand what the foundation of our country is, even if you're not a Christian.
	And Chuck understood it. He's not a Christian.
	I would suggest Matt Trujillo's book, The Doctrine of the Lesser Magistrate.
	It's a small book, and it's a quick read, very interesting read, lots of information.
	He doesn't pad it. But he covers a lot of stuff.
	And if you want historical arguments, legal arguments, arguments about the foundation of Western civilization, all the rest of this stuff, yeah, it has things in there from a Christian perspective that would be good if somebody like, you know, the pinwheel guy... If he would read it, he would be edified by it, I think.
	And I think it'd probably change his opinion.
	But he's just rejected it out of hand.
	He doesn't want to hear about it.
	Todd Friel. Pinwheel Friel.
	But if you want to stand against that, whether you're a Christian or not, because the foundation of our country was based on these types of Christian foundations and the struggles that people had had with government, For religious freedom, which is closely tied to free speech and all the rest of the stuff and a free press.
	So if you want to understand that and you want to fight it and you want to put it in a historical perspective, all that helps you to fight it.
	I suggest that you look at Matt Trujillo's book.
	Excellent book. I said something worse than Build-A-Bear, and it truly is in a sense.
	This is coming from the federalistpapers.org.
	So you thought that Bud Light thing was bad?
	Well, Donald Trump Jr.
	didn't. It wasn't bad.
	They give us money, so hey, they can do whatever they want, right?
	Well, Build-A-Bear is doing the same thing.
	Build-A-Bear is pushing, you know, drag-stuffed animals and stuff like that.
	I remember when we adopted our daughter from China.
	She was about five years old.
	So it was a real effort trying to get her I think?
	Nutcracker Sweet. It was Christmas time.
	Took her to the ballet so she could see some of this stuff.
	Just trying to get her exposed to this different world that she's in.
	And we didn't notice it then, but when we went back, we saw that they had up all around the perimeter of the store, it takes a village to build a bear.
	And I said, huh, well maybe we'll get some different toys for her.
	That's where these people have been for the longest time.
	But I guess it also takes drag queens in order to build a bear at Build-A-Bear.
	They're partnering with RuPaul.
	This is pointed out by Tim Walsh.
	Sorry, Matt Walsh, who works for the Daily Wire.
	He says, I'm told the bear is sold in a section of the site that's an online site that is, quote, intended for 18-year-old-plus shoppers.
	Except that they have the drag bear right on the front page, front and center, right alongside the Easter merchandise.
	Now, the comments from the federalistpapers.org, I love what they had to say.
	They said, first of all, if you are an adult and you have anything to do with the products from Build-A-Bear for your own use, get help.
	That's about right. It trends young.
	But then they also have an adult line at Build-A-Bear.
	They call it the Bear Cave.
	And a lot of double entendre and suggestive stuff as part of that.
	And the quote-unquote adult section.
	And, you know, RuPaul, that's where you'll find RuPaul, but also advertised on the front.
	And that's where Matt Walsh saw this.
	Build-A-Bear also has another promotion.
	They have a bear that is holding a wine glass and a bottle of Cabernet wearing a shirt reading, It's Wine O'Clock Somewhere.
	So there you go. Let's have a beer to celebrate our alcoholism.
	So anyway, they put the bear right there next to the Easter stuff.
	As we said, it's these corporations, these big corporations, all of them, have done this Faustian bargain.
	On ABC, you have the View hosts, as usual, acting incredibly dumb, but they're calling other people dumb and transphobic if you've got a problem with Bud Light.
	And so Whoopi Goldberg said, I'm going to say this out loud.
	Oh, watch out. Don't know what's going to happen.
	When Whoopi is going to say something out loud.
	So she says, I'm a big Budweiser fan.
	When I drink, I like my Budweiser.
	When I drink, rather.
	I like my Budweiser. So I guess maybe she's off the wagon now or something.
	Is it off the wagon or on the wagon when you stop drinking?
	I don't know. So I have a lot of feeling about this.
	The Bud Light ad campaign with Dylan Mulvaney.
	Well, you know, she obviously maybe had a problem with drinking or something.
	She stopped doing it. But now it's a good thing because we've got transgenders involved.
	So, you know, hey, it's wine o'clock somewhere for somebody, including Whoopi.
	She wants to Whoopi it up about the Whoopi beer here.
	Sonny Hostin said, the thing is, I think the people were destroying their own beer, which is kind of dumb.
	I wonder if Whoopi did that when she stopped drinking.
	They're also making this out to be trans.
	This is a transphobic issue.
	I'm so sick of that.
	I have no fear of transgenders.
	I have no fear. I'm not phobic of any of this stuff.
	I'm not self-phobic.
	That's what homophobic means.
	I don't fear myself.
	And I don't fear people are homosexual either.
	I'm theophobic. I fear God.
	I don't fear these people.
	We know this country is highly transphobic.
	It's unbelievable to me this still is going on.
	People are saying this is an American beer.
	This is a Belgian company.
	Anheuser-Busch is a Belgian company.
	Sells beer in 130 countries.
	Well, there you go. But they do give a lot of money to Republicans like the Trumps, and so they want to protect them and all this stuff.
	Saturday Night Live has somebody that now identifies as non-binary.
	I thought that was kind of funny. I haven't watched it for decades.
	I remember when we were back in college, they had one person, you remember that Pat?
	And the whole running joke about that was that nobody really knew whether Pat was male or female, right?
	So they've been marketing this stuff to us as comedy for a long time.
	Even when you go back and you look at MASH, The whole thing about Klinger, you know.
	And nobody, you know, he didn't try to act.
	And everybody knew it was an act, and he's just trying to get out, get his Section 8, which declared him to be nuts.
	But it was a running joke, and it was normalizing it, you see.
	That's why I say, you know, when you keep showing these pictures of Dylan Mulvaney and all the rest of the stuff, you're normalizing all that.
	And so that's what they did on Saturday Night Live.
	But what is interesting and noteworthy about this is Is that this person who says in real life now that they are Pat.
	Non-binary.
	Was dropped into a guest seat via a harness to attack political efforts to ban puberty blockers and sex organ surgeries for the very young.
	This is an article from Breitbart.
	Now, they don't pick up on the fact that they bring them down and then take her back up.
	What is she supposed to be?
	A messenger from on high?
	You know, some kind of religious deity or something.
	I think there's a, you know, if we're going to talk about the subtle messages of people like Klinger, I think this is a not-so-subtle message about that.
	So, she said, restricting health care for kids.
	For some reason, there's something about the word trans that makes people forget the word kids.
	Well, I agree about that.
	When you start talking about trans, you forget about the fact that they're coming after kids.
	They are the ones who are doing this.
	Well, it's trans, and so I can do whatever I want, including kids.
	And she said, we're making trans kids grow up too fast.
	Can you believe that? They're the ones who are talking to kids in kindergarten.
	About genitals and about sex and about all the rest of this stuff.
	They're the ones who are pushing explicit pornography to kids in elementary school.
	And she says, we're making trans kids grow up too fast?
	One thing that I didn't like about this Breitbart article, they said this is a classic example of an abuse tactic, something that pedophiles use.
	It's known by its acronym DARVO, D-A-R-V-O, DARVO. Deny, attack, reverse the victim and the offender.
	Reverse the victim and the offender.
	They make the trans groomers and pedophiles into victims.
	You see? Not offenders.
	They're the victims. Queer activists and powerful institutions have been caught pushing young children into sexualized conversations and into permanent bodily harm at earlier and earlier ages.
	But that's the message that Saturday Night Live and the corporate media want to send to you.
	A Washington bill would bar parents from intervening on child gender issues.
	So again, completely separate the parents from the kids.
	And as I said, I've been doing videos and talking about this subject for 13 years.
	And I want to play for you a video that I did for the parentalrights.org.
	They were trying to get like a two-line sentence, get the Republicans to sign on to something like two lines long that would establish parental rights.
	Why? Because the UN, for longer than 13 years, at the point I got involved in it, the UN had been doing it for a long time, and the United States was the last country not to sign the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.
	But the problem was...
	That even though, at that time, public opinion was not going to support it, I don't know about today.
	But they had no chance of public opinion supporting this for the Congress to formally sign on to this.
	But by de facto measures, through court decisions...
	And through Child Protective Services, and through the actions of schools and departments of education, especially the Federal Department of Education, it was happening in a de facto measure.
	And so they wanted this protection of parental rights, two sentences, very simple, put into the Constitution.
	Of course, Republicans are not even interested in taking a look at it.
	But this is what I did for them.
	Certain truths are self-evident.
	We're endowed by our Creator with rights.
	Certain relationships are also inalienable.
	Family was the first institution created by our Creator, and the family is the fundamental building block of every healthy society and every just government.
	But government and family are two different authorities or spheres with different roles and different responsibilities.
	Each authority is uniquely suited for a particular task and doesn't do the task of the other well.
	Families have traditionally been assumed to be acting out of love in the best interest of its members and have been left alone unless proven to be abusive.
	But a new attitude has been cultivated by those that believe children should be raised by the village and not by their family.
	This approach to children and their families has been spelled out in the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.
	The UN Convention assumes government responsibility for all the needs of children and transfers responsibilities and rights from parents to government.
	Government is seen as capable of providing everyone to the child and as responsible for instilling correct values, their values, into children.
	Parents are mentioned in the UN Convention only as problems for children to be protected from or as mere advisors to their children so long as their advice is not too strong or coercive.
	Children are encouraged to form their values independent of their parents.
	But nowhere is there a sense that they would ever need protection from a government.
	This troubling document has been ratified as a treaty throughout the world, with the U.S. as virtually the only lone holdout.
	The U.N. Convention on the Rights of the Child is about 16 pages.
	On the other hand, the Parental Rights Amendment is only three short paragraphs.
	is a simple restatement of what has until recently been what every culture, every government except authoritarian governments, saw as the rights of parents.
	The Parental Rights Amendment would strengthen the Constitution to protect the family by explicitly stating self-evident truths about an inalienable relationship.
	Find out what you can do at parentalrights.org.
	All right, and parentalrights.org, I think the website is still up.
	I don't know how active they are.
	But you want to see what this looks like?
	In Washington state, the Democrat governor there, Jay Inslee, has indicated that he will sign this bill to strip parents of their rights.
	You don't need a U.N. convention if you've got Democrats.
	Republicans have strongly criticized the bill for stripping parents of their rights as well as for promoting child abuse.
	In the bill, they say gender-affirming treatment can be prescribed to two-spirit, transgender, non-binary, and other gender-diverse individuals.
	I'm sorry. Two or more spirits on a person, we call that person demon-possessed.
	Maybe that's what the L stands for now.
	Legion. Anyway, for minors, quote-unquote affirming care means things like puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and surgeries.
	In other words, chemical or surgical mutilation and sterilization.
	That's affirming care.
	From these people who hate us and who hate humanity and want to make sure we have fewer people.
	Now, we're talking about Planned Parenthood and their efforts to normalize pedophilia always have been there.
	Interesting that an ex-Planned Parenthood executive has just committed suicide after a botched child porn raid in Connecticut.
	What was botched about it?
	Well, the idiot police went to the wrong apartment and he realized that they were on to him.
	Went to his neighbor's apartment.
	Former Connecticut Planned Parenthood honcho took his own life, says the New York Post, after police failed to arrest him on child pornography charges, botching the raid by knocking down the door of his neighbor.
	Oh, she and her child were truly traumatized by this.
	I mean, not only, you know, this is straight out of Terry Gilliam's Brazil.
	I mean, this is the world we live in now.
	Buttle or Tuttle?
	What was it? And they break this down.
	Where is he? Where is he? What are you talking about?
	You know, eventually she put together that they were looking for the other guy who was upstairs or something.
	And he was a former director of strategic communications for Planned Parenthood.
	He committed suicide.
	Because he knew the child pornography investigation was pointing towards him.
	And he did it five days.
	Not only do they do the raid in the wrong place, but I guess for five days they didn't do anything.
	They just waited.
	They broke in to the woman's apartment.
	They handcuffed her.
	And kept her under essentially arrest for quite some time.
	And then they don't come after him for five days.
	What's going on with that? The neighbor said she relives being handcuffed every time now she walks down the apartment's hallway.
	She said, what if I'd had a gun permit?
	What if I came down the hallway with a gun?
	Well, I've reported on many cases like that.
	People executed by SWAT teams.
	Would I have gotten shot?
	What if my four-year-old had woken up?
	Would they have shot him?
	She said. You just don't do that to people.
	Police entered her apartment about six o'clock in the morning, began systematically moving through the home with their guns drawn, she said.
	I started running down the hallway.
	It was like a movie. They had guns and flashlights on me.
	They put me up against the wall.
	They handcuffed me. I was crying and saying, what's happening?
	Officers repeatedly asked her, where the man was located?
	Where's the man? Where's the man?
	She said, what man? I'm here with my children.
	They asked, who's Tim?
	She said, that's my neighbor downstairs.
	Keystone cops.
	SWAT team fire drill.
	After they noticed toys belonging to her four-year-old son, they reportedly realized they were in the wrong apartment.
	They told her they'd been conducting surveillance of her neighbor.
	Were they? Did they do a really good job of the surveillance?
	They didn't even know which apartment he's in.
	How are they surveilling what apartment he's in?
	And again, another five days later, he's not arrested, and he commits suicide because he's still out.
	Like I said before, you know, one of the mistakes that we make in life is that we...
	We consistently cannot imagine just how dark people around us can be.
	Like I said about Ted Bundy, who raped and murdered so many women.
	Why? Because he's this charming, good-looking guy, very intelligent.
	They just can't imagine how dark he could be.
	And you look at the public figures that people get behind and support.
	Oh, you would be surprised.
	What happens? And sometimes we get a bit of a glimpse of it.
	Sometimes we don't.
	And this particular case, when we look at Ali Alexander of Stop the Steal.
	He's somebody, I never interviewed him.
	I never had any contact with him.
	I never even talked to him in person.
	But he was a regular at Infowars.
	And he was one of the partners with Alex Jones and Roger Stone on Stop the Steal.
	I always kind of summed him up.
	I thought he was a bit creepy.
	He reminded me of Sammy Davis Jr., which I always thought was creep alert.
	And it turns out I was right about that as well.
	But when I learned of his fraud convictions, it made perfectly good sense because I knew how fraudulent Stop the Steal was.
	This is a guy who... He had been convicted of financial fraud and credit card fraud.
	He was the guy who was running Stop the Steal with Alex Jones.
	Of course, right?
	I mean, it's a perfect match.
	So, you know, they had the CIA, Steve Pachenik, in there as a marketing guy.
	They had grifters and fraudsters.
	And now we find out there's allegations of pedophilia with Ali.
	Ali Akbar was the name that he had when he was convicted of fraud, credit card fraud and other things like that.
	So they changed it to Ali Alexander.
	That was his alias that he was going by.
	His legal name, I think, remained Ali Akbar.
	And a key figure in the Stop the Steal campaign has apologized after being accused of asking teenage boys for sexual pictures.
	Ali Alexander has become one of the most ubiquitous figures in the MAGA movement.
	Connected to Alex and to Nick Fuentes, another big partner of theirs in Stop the Steal events that were out there.
	So, he said in a statement issued Friday night, when he addressed the allegations in broad terms, what he said was, this is too gay.
	Oh, okay.
	So... He says, I apologize for any inappropriate messages sent over the years.
	When I've flirted or others have flirted with me, I've flexed my credentials or dropped corny pickup lines.
	Other times I've been careless and should have qualified those coming up to me, coming up to me's identity.
	That's the way he wrote it.
	During flirtatious banter at the start.
	Yeah. Mistakes were made.
	So that's the sum total of this, right?
	And of course, again, the big story is that his fraud convictions were no problem for Alex and Roger.
	Financial fraud is not a problem.
	And from what seems to be evolving out of that organization, sexual issues are not a problem either.
	I know, and key as part of this, is Milo Yiannopoulos, who has now renounced his Homosexual lifestyle, although he was still hanging around with Ali Alexander and Nick Fuentes and all the rest of these people, with Kanye West.
	They pushed out Annapolis, and they're saying that he is now exposing this because he is angry about being pushed out.
	Does that make it not true?
	You know, one of the things that I saw yesterday, which I... I talked about the back and forth between DeSantis and Trump.
	And, you know, the Trump people, the MAGA PAC that he has.
	So he's got a PAC. They've got these political action committees that do ads on their behalf so they don't have to have the disclaimer.
	You know, they don't have to say, I'm Donald Trump and I approve this message, right?
	Or I'm Ron DeSantis and I approve this message.
	So they have their PACs and they're like wolf PACs.
	Not the good wolf PACs that Tony Arterman has.
	Yeah. But, uh, at wisewolf.gold.
	But these are people like, they're like, you know, feral hunting packs to take people down.
	And, uh, and do it with plausible deniability and distance, right?
	Same way that the Congress uses the bureaucracy.
	We're not going to pass these laws. This is really bad.
	We're really going to be stomping on people.
	So let's let the bureaucracy do it.
	And then if people get really mad, we can come in and rescue them from the bureaucracy.
	How about that? You know, so it's that type of thing.
	And so this Trump pack, I played you the commercial yesterday, you know, about the pudding fingers and everything, right?
	And then after, you know, attacking DeSantis over allegations that he once ate some pudding with his fingers.
	I'm so glad that our Western society and our country pivots on the importance of who gets elected to be president, aren't you?
	If that were true, it would be hopeless at this point, wouldn't it?
	But the other part of it, that was the beginning of it.
	And then it goes into these allegations that DeSantis wants to get rid of Social Security.
	Typical Democrat.
	And then DeSantis does a counter-add.
	It says, oh, I love Social Security and I love Medicare and all the rest of this stuff.
	So, yeah, the welfare state is safe regardless of who gets elected.
	Republicans aren't going to do anything about it.
	Democrats aren't going to do anything about it.
	But it is a constant charge leveled by people against their opponents.
	Typically, it's done by Democrats against Republicans.
	But, you know, Trump, he's a Democrat, frankly.
	But anyway, there was another ad that was done by DeSantis.
	And that was talking about his gun stuff.
	I'll play that later when I get into guns.
	And the reason I bring all this stuff up is because I saw the ad on Twitter and I looked at the comments underneath it and it was just unbelievable.
	It was one person.
	This isn't true. It was clips put together of the things that I talk about all the time, quoting Trump.
	You know, that meeting where he had Dianne Feinstein and Chuck Schumer and they're all sitting around the table.
	Well, we can just take the guns and do the due process later.
	That's what I like. And, you know, Dianne, I think we can come together on this.
	I think we can do something you're going to like and all the rest of the stuff about, you know, betraying the Second Amendment.
	Other quotes where he says, all these people, they're owned by the NRA. I'm not owned by them.
	I don't care about them and all the rest of this stuff, right?
	And these people are saying, that's not true.
	That's not true. It's like, you can't handle the truth.
	When people put out a clip of Trump saying this, saying that he's going to do gun control by executive order, saying that he's going to work with Chuck Schumer and Dianne Feinstein, saying that he's going to take away due process, you can't handle that.
	Oh, this is fake. This is fake.
	Just one person after the other.
	And then attacking Ron DeSantis.
	And it's like, okay, wait a minute.
	You want to attack Ron DeSantis?
	Fine, I don't care about that. I'm not going to defend Ron DeSantis.
	But if Ron DeSantis...
	If Trump came after the Second Amendment, like Trump did, would that make it okay that Trump came after the Second Amendment?
	Let's assume that they did the same thing, because that's some of the stuff they had.
	Look, Ron DeSantis had a red flag law there.
	Well, fine. Attack Ron DeSantis on the red flag law, but also attack Trump on that.
	If you're going to make this about personality, we're done.
	These guys are both wrong on the issue about red flag laws.
	So attack them on that.
	But no, no, you know, Ron did it too.
	So that makes it okay that Trump took away our freedoms.
	That's the way people think.
	And so anyway, Milo Yiannopoulos, who again had been a flamboyant homosexual, rated by Alex as a trophy conservative, right?
	Oh, look, you know, he's an intelligent, conservative, Pushing homosexuality.
	Let's have him on the program. He's like, not on my show.
	I never talked to him.
	Never talked to him. I never talked to him when he was walking the halls and pushing that.
	Now, he's supposedly changed.
	But I was not interested in selling that lifestyle to people and making conservatism cool.
	That's what Alex was doing.
	That's what Trump does with Mar-a-Lago, with Melania and the rest of this stuff.
	He embraces it.
	He markets it. Donald Trump Jr.
	says, don't criticize Bud Light about the Dylan Mulvaney.
	They give us lots of money.
	It's all about the money.
	It's all it's about to them. They don't care what happens to society.
	They don't care what happens to our kids, to our family.
	They don't care about any of that stuff.
	And they thumb their nose at God.
	They lie to people.
	They set people up.
	They steal their money.
	They push this degeneracy to them.
	Why? Because it works.
	Works for what they want.
	So, Milo has walked away from all that, he says.
	But again, when he's hanging out with Ali and he's hanging out with Nick Fuentes, I don't know.
	He claims that he's releasing the video against Alexander because Alexander dropped Ianopolis' name in order to entice young men.
	One screenshot purports to show Alexander dangling the prospect of a meeting with Ianopolis to a teenage boy.
	And there was a lot of talk.
	About Milo being involved with underage boys at the time.
	That was no deterrent for Alex featuring him on InfoWars.
	None whatsoever. As a matter of fact, there's no bad publicity, says Roger Stone and Alex Jones.
	It doesn't matter how notorious, how criminal, how degenerate the behavior.
	Hey, if everybody's talking about it, let's get the guy on.
	In 2017, a 15-year-old boy in Colorado interested in right-wing politics sent Ali Alexander Explicit pictures after the MAGA activist asked him for it.
	Well, this is a report from Yahoo.
	I don't know what the original source is.
	Anyway, as I point out, Alexander pleaded guilty to felony property theft in 2007, to felony credit card abuse in 2008.
	That sounds like exactly the kind of guy you want to run Stop the Steal.
	Stop! We've got a steal going on here.
	So anyway, by 2017, Alexander had become an ardent Trump supporter with a passion for social media trash talk.
	He became a protege of MAGA figures like Roger Stone and Alex Jones and ran with a group including anti-Muslim activist Laura Loomer.
	But in his messages to Duncan, there was one name that Alexander dangled as a perk for the teenager if he kept it up.
	Milo Yiannopoulos.
	He reportedly told the teenager that he would introduce him to Milo and speculated about whether the boy would be Alexander's arm candy, and on and on.
	This goes quite a bit.
	And of course, you know, the typical stuff we see, just like a schoolteacher today, Ali Alexander says, keep it secret, don't tell anybody what's going on with this stuff.
	He's now 21. He has since become a relatively high-profile member of Nick Fuente's America First movement.
	He goes by the name Smiley.
	He says, when I was 15, I was naive and desperate.
	I thought I had no choice but to cooperate with inappropriate and humiliating requests if I wanted to make it in politics.
	I figured this was just the nature of the game.
	I think you're right.
	I don't think that's changed, even though you're six years older.
	And I think that if you don't have any self-respect, these people use you.
	But, of course, the teachers in schools will do the same thing, won't they?
	Then there's the 17-year-old that was involved with this.
	So there's multiple allegations about this.
	The alley allegations.
	And then, of course, there's the troubling issue of Nick Fuentes.
	Not only a hateful racist, but questions about what he really stands for.
	He has built his movement...
	In terms of being very hateful to homosexuals.
	And yet people have a lot of questions about Nick Fuentes himself.
	And so anyway, I gotta say, you know, I thought these guys are just merely criminal fraudsters.
	But there's a whole other aspect of that there.
	That we got glimpses of on Alex's phone and other issues like that.
	Uh, so I'll just leave it at that and we'll take a break and I kind of wash our mouth out here with this stuff.
	We'll be right back.
	We'll be right back.
	Well, I want to get off of this and to get on to some other topics, but I've got one last thing to say.
	And this is something that comes from Breakpoint Commentaries.
	Breakpoint Commentaries is something put out by the Colson Center for Policy.
	This is something that was set up by Chuck Colson.
	One of the people that had basically become a political prostitute, you know, not sexually but politically, around the inner circle of Richard Nixon.
	He went to jail, and in jail he became a Christian, and then he set up a Colson Center and many other things, and even though he's now passed away, They still put out some pretty good commentaries.
	This particular commentary by John Stone Street and Shane Morris is about trans pronouns.
	Do we want to live by this lie?
	Should we do it to be nice to people?
	And this is a debate that is really a lot of...
	It's kind of the same type of thing.
	They always use this.
	Just like this is one of the ways that they gaslighted people over the vaccine, right?
	You need to do this to love your neighbor.
	You need to do this to help other people.
	You need to do this to be...
	You don't want to hurt anybody's feelings anymore, right?
	Say the people who hurt everybody's feelings.
	And so this is very effective with Christians.
	Because so many Christians believe...
	That they have to be winsome in order to win someone to Christ, right?
	You have to be obsequious and meet people where they are and all the rest of the stuff.
	No. Evangelism meant a good news, a good message, and it's simply a proclamation.
	Whether or not people receive it or not, that's between them and God.
	Our message is to throw the stuff out there and If it hits hard ground, it hits hard ground.
	If it hits ground that God has prepared, it'll bear fruit.
	But that's not our responsibility.
	We throw the seed out, and God gives the increase.
	You know, sometimes we water it, too.
	Anyway, the Colson Center said, this says, when you look at the pronouns, they said, it's our policy here.
	To use pronouns that correspond to somebody's biological sex.
	And they said this makes a lot of people angry.
	Including an increasing number of Christians getting angry with them because they refuse to use somebody's preferred pronouns.
	Said that's not the right way to do evangelism.
	A prominent Christian voice on LGBT issues once believed this, but has now changed.
	Rosaria Butterfield She's got a well-known testimony that includes being saved out of a lesbian lifestyle.
	She publicly advocated, even after she became a Christian, she publicly advocated for what she called pronoun hospitality.
	It was, she said, a carryover from her gay activist days.
	She hoped that by using someone's preferred pronouns, that was going to be the best way to, quote, meet everyone where they were.
	And do nothing to provoke insult.
	But earlier this month, she published an article that explained why she has not only changed her mind, but she thinks that it's necessary to publicly repent of her former views.
	She said using transgender pronouns, she now believes, was not only a misguided attempt at hospitality, but actually a sin, a violation against the commandment against bearing false witness.
	Against lying. Right?
	You have to understand. This is a totalitarian tactic.
	As I said many times, I'm no more going to play along with Dylan Mulvaney pretending that he's a woman than I am with somebody pretending that they're Napoleon Bonaparte.
	They want to see if they can get me to lie.
	If they can get me...
	This is a totalitarian tactic.
	They want to get me to say 2 plus 2 equals 5.
	I'm not going to do it. That's always...
	The core issue with the authoritarianism, that you have to repudiate what you know is true.
	Why? Because somebody with power over you is telling you that you have to repudiate what you know is true.
	Will you bow to their power?
	Will you submit to their power?
	That's what the lie is ultimately about.
	She said, Christians who use the moral lens of LGBT personhood are not merely a soft presence in the enemy camp.
	Their malleability makes them putty or pudding in the enemy's hands.
	I guess she did this before the Ron DeSantis commercial.
	Pudding in the enemy's hands.
	They make false converts to a counterfeit gospel.
	That bends the knee to the fictional identity of LGBT. In other words, lies.
	Why are they going to listen to anything that you have to say if they can get you to lie?
	Butterfield writes that instead of meeting people where they were using factually incorrect pronouns, encouraged them to actually stay where they were and to root their identity more firmly in beliefs and behaviors that Christ called them to crucify if they were Christians.
	Again, I've said so many times that terminology is a high ground.
	Whether we're talking about debates on issues, or whether we're talking about the kind of spiritual and mental warfare that is going on against our kids, going on against our society right now, the terminology is the high ground.
	And if they can get you to use their terminology, they win.
	This is why Reuters and AP, and AP especially, would have speech guidelines.
	You will not use the term pro-life.
	You will refer to those people as anti-abortion rights.
	And so when they pick the terminology, they've already got the advantage in terms of any debate because they've characterized you as somebody who is against human rights, not somebody who is defending life of a baby.
	So what are words for, they say?
	Is language essentially arbitrary, a reflection of a subjective meaning?
	Is it perhaps a power play?
	That's what postmodern thinkers are claiming.
	And they're right. For them, it is a power play.
	If they can get you to use that terminology, then they have you at a disadvantage.
	You know, they're going to shoot down on you from an elevated position.
	Does it correspond to objective reality?
	Do our words name and differentiate things in the real world?
	That's where we are. We're not postmodernists.
	We believe that there is objective truth.
	That's what I've said for the longest time.
	The answer to LGBT is B-O-B, Bob.
	Biological, objective, and binary.
	Gender is biological, objective, and binary.
	Gender is Bob. What about Bob?
	Remember that movie? Anyway.
	Do our words name and differentiate things in the real world?
	A world itself spoken into existence by the Word of God?
	Well, if that's the case, if we believe that, then intentionally using and encouraging the use of false language is a verbal act of uncreation and assault on the actual nature and dignity and the worth of God's image bearers.
	It is to implicitly claim, That the God who gave us the Bible knew less than we know now.
	You have a managing editor, a quote of a theology journal called Ad Fontes, I guess is how you pronounce that.
	It's a Greek, Latin, I think.
	Preferred pronouns are a rejection of God's purpose for our words.
	They deny what our minds can clearly discern, the good existence of male and female.
	They shun the obligation we have to declare what we have discerned.
	And so they are unethical.
	They're unacceptable speech for anyone, let alone Christians.
	But again, it just goes back to what Solzhenitsyn was saying.
	It's the hallmark of totalitarianism.
	You know what the reality is.
	I'm going to force you to not only say that 2 plus 2 equals 5, but eventually you're going to believe that 2 plus 2 equals 5.
	You're going to live by that lie for so long that you won't be able to distinguish truth from falsehood.
	And what I tell you will be your truth.
	The law will come out of my mouth.
	Reality will come out of my mouth.
	You will give me the power to define all that.
	We don't give that power to any man or woman, as they're now seeking to rule over us.
	The ability to think and to act morally largely depends on the ability to speak accurately.
	This is why so many people on the opposite side of the question are so insistent that we use their words.
	Again, postmodernism doesn't deny that there's a truth.
	They want to destroy the truth, and they want to replace it with their lie.
	That's what it's really about.
	Yeah, we've always said this, you know, postmodernism.
	Well, there is no such thing as absolute truth.
	Well, that is their absolute truth, you understand.
	They want to replace the truth with their absolute truth, which is that there is no truth.
	It's self-contradictory.
	It's as insane as all of this transgender nonsense.
	To be clear, Christians should also avoid unnecessarily offending people whenever possible.
	We should know that calling males men and females women will not in and of itself resolve this cultural, psychological, and spiritual challenge that we have right now from transgenders.
	But it is the lie that empowers them.
	And we must not live by their lies.
	Truth, not niceness, not relevance, not even hospitality.
	It is truth that will set people free.
	And so, again, that is the biggest mistake, is to think that totalitarianism cannot happen in your country, because right now, it is happening right now.
	Throughout all this transgender stuff, that is totalitarianism.
	And we are experiencing it in many different forms.
	We experienced it throughout all the lockdown.
	You know that these masks don't work, but you're going to wear the masks anyway.
	We'll be right back. Music You're
	listening to The David Knight Show.
	All right, I mentioned this a little bit earlier.
	The fact that you've got a California church that's now been ordered to pay more than a million dollars, actually $1.2 million in COVID fines by a judge.
	The woman's name is, her last name is Pennypacker.
	Pennyfarthing or whatever. I mean, it is straight out of the prisoner, isn't it?
	You know, the big bicycle that's got the giant front wheel and little tiny back wheel, the pennyfarthing that's...
	The icon for the prisoner?
	Well, we've got Penny Packer as the judge in this particular case.
	A Superior Court judge.
	Yvette Pennypacker.
	No relation to Miss Moneypenny from Bond novels, I guess.
	She ordered Calvary Chapel San Jose to pay $1.2 million in fines after it failed to follow COVID restrictions that were put in place by Santa Clara County.
	August 20th, August 2020, through January 2021.
	And so we need to understand that these people are not done yet, okay?
	They're not ever going to be done.
	We have a lot of work to do.
	Don't get complacent about this.
	Yes, they've got some new things that they're going to send at us, and CBDC is one of those.
	And we've got a guest coming up at the top of the hour.
	He's going to talk about Operation Sandman.
	The implications of that. We're going to talk about CBDC and other things that are happening.
	But basically, from a financial standpoint, I think you're going to enjoy the interview.
	I'm anxious to talk to him.
	But getting back to this, the very fact that these people are getting together for all this period of time, you know, from August until January.
	Five months, they're meeting on a regular basis.
	Singing, which is...
	We looked at the way that the CDC, and it was published by NPR... The most risky thing that you could do, according to CDC, as published by NPR, was to get into a church building and sing with other people.
	Oh, yeah, that is the most dangerous activity you could be engaged in.
	How convenient, right?
	And so they did this for five months.
	There is absolutely no interest in the court to show that their behavior was...
	Dangerous to anybody, including themselves.
	And of course, that's the big elephant in the room, isn't it?
	The fact that they didn't die.
	That the demographics in churches tend to skew older.
	And nobody died through all this stuff.
	As a matter of fact, they don't even make the case that any of these people got sick.
	So what's the issue here, right?
	Where's your evidence that anything happened?
	You want to lock down healthy people?
	You want to prohibit activities that didn't get anybody sick, didn't kill anybody?
	And you're going to do this why?
	Oh, that's right, because we didn't follow their dictates, right?
	They're dictators. The law is in their mouth.
	It's whatever they say.
	So we're going to completely get rid of the rule of law.
	And when you do this kind of thing, Right?
	You know, again, these people, they're in a lot of trouble right now.
	$1.2 million because they didn't follow the advice of Pinwheel Friel.
	Todd Friel, who said, the government tells you to put a pinwheel on your head, you put a pinwheel on your head.
	I'm glad that Fauci doesn't watch his program because he probably would have told us to do that.
	Hey, you know, you put that pinwheel on, and what it does is magically blows all the virus away from your face.
	And you're safe now.
	No. No.
	It's all about obeying them.
	What they did, their crime, they had two crimes.
	Their big crime, along with the crime of other churches in LA, you know, the big church there that John MacArthur, who was always, you know, frequently on with Larry King, you know, would have him on to talk about issues.
	He'd usually, Larry King would usually Bring in somebody who was a Jewish rabbi and a Catholic priest and John MacArthur and an atheist.
	And he would ask them questions about life and death and morality and all this other kind of stuff.
	So he became pretty well known.
	And so his church had 7,000 plus people.
	They had a million dollars worth of fines or whatever.
	They put them in escrow as the fines were accumulating.
	And they won their court cases, and they got that back, plus, I think, attorney's fees and things like that.
	The bottom line is, the churches, both there and then also up in Canada, the pastors who were getting arrested were being arrested because their very meeting showed that the pandemic was a fraud.
	It showed that there was no pandemic.
	And that was what was so dangerous to these people.
	Now listen to the...
	Statement from this judge, Penny Packer.
	She says, It should appear clear to all, regardless of religious affiliation, that wearing a mask while worshiping one's God, and she puts God lowercase, and communing with other congregants is a simple, unobtrusive, giving way to protect others while still exercising your right to religious freedom.
	She says, unfortunately, the defendants repeatedly refuse to model, much less enforce this gesture.
	It's not a gesture.
	It's a genuflecting to your presumed authority, which you don't have.
	And we're not going to do that.
	You see, that's the key thing.
	Look, when they violate, they all take an oath to the Constitution.
	And one of the things that people like Todd Freel don't understand is what legitimate authority is.
	Now, you can talk all you want to, you know, about the Roman Empire.
	But when I talked about this, I said, you know, one of the reasons why they were throwing Christians to the lions and things like that, that Todd Friel says, well, you know, Paul is writing this because, and it wasn't because it was a good government.
	They were throwing Christians to the lions.
	But he said, you've got to obey everything that they do.
	Well, why were they throwing Christians to the lions?
	It's because it was customary.
	To do emperor worship, just like this judge.
	They said, well, there's many gods.
	Why are you getting all hung up about one god?
	Right? And Caesar is one of those gods.
	And so when you go into certain public areas, they have a little thing there, and you have to take a pinch of incense, and you have to throw it on the altar to worship the emperor.
	Now, the Christians knew that he wasn't God.
	They knew that they were not worshiping him, but it was a principle of the thing.
	And they would die over that principle before they'd put a pinwheel on their head or take a pinch of incense and throw it in there.
	They'd be thrown to the lions, burned at the stake, because they're not going to live by that lie.
	Do you understand that? That is the essence of this.
	That is worth dying for.
	Because it showed people that many of these people who had been witnesses to the events at that time Believed it so fully that they would die for it.
	That's why we call them martyrs because that means witness in Greek.
	So these witnesses would not do that.
	They would not do the gesture.
	They would not do the genuflex.
	And in our society, we don't have an emperor.
	In spite of what the MAGA crowd thinks, in spite of what the Obama followers think, we do not elect an emperor, a dictator, every four years who's going to fix everything for us, right?
	That's what both the Republicans and Democrats want.
	We want a dictator, an emperor who's going to fix everything.
	He's going to be a benevolent dictator for our side.
	We don't elect in the office of president a dictator.
	The president and everybody else in government, federal government, state government, local government, everybody in this country swears allegiance to the Constitution.
	That is a condition of them taking office.
	If they violate that oath taken to the king, the Constitution is king, the people who founded this country said, Lex Rex, the law is king, not you.
	Not Trump. Not Obama.
	Not DeSantis. Not anybody you can think of.
	Not Biden. The Constitution is king.
	And when these people who take an oath to the Constitution king violate that oath, they no longer have any authority.
	That's where the doctrine of the lesser magistrate comes from.
	Because the people who have not violated their oath can stand in the gap legally.
	And we can stand with them against these people who have taken away their authority, completely taken away their authority.
	They may have power. They may have the power to kill us or put us in prison, but they have zero authority.
	And that's true pretty much of everybody in Washington right now.
	They've got a lot of power, but they have zero authority about anything.
	And so we look at this and we make a calculation as to whether or not We want to live a quiet life and go along with some of this stuff, but we're not going to live by their lies.
	And when they start telling us to prance around and use pronouns and put masks on our faces and all the rest of the stuff, and you can't worship God, that's when we draw the line.
	Say, no more pinwheels.
	They repeatedly flouted their refusal, says the judge.
	They flouted their refusal to comply with the public health orders.
	And they urged others to do so with a who-cares-what-the-cost-is, including death.
	Judge, can you show us anybody who was sick?
	Anybody who died?
	Oh, don't have to.
	You know, we go back and we look at the case of Ross Ulbrich, Silk Road.
	He's serving multiple consecutive life sentences, which means he's not eligible ever for parole.
	Why? For running a website.
	What did that criminal judge do to justify that?
	Well, she said there had been allegations, even though there was not even an indictment.
	There were allegations in the press that he had used Silk Road in a murder-for-hire situation.
	And there was never an indictment, let alone a conviction.
	But she acted as if he had been convicted of that and used that to give him consecutive life sentences.
	This is how detached...
	Some of these people can become.
	So, in response to that, the church lawyer, their attorney, said, we look forward to establishing more precedents on appeal that will have far greater implications for the future.
	That's why they're fighting it. I don't know if they've got the money or not.
	It's a big congregation. But they're going to set this up.
	Precedents matter. That's why it matters when Trump sets a precedent of gun control by executive order.
	Precedents make a big deal.
	So they're going to fight this to establish a precedent to protect all of us.
	So that we don't have these arbitrary whims of dictators who tell us to wear pinwheels on our heads or masks, cloth masks on our faces.
	So, I'll tell you where this is all coming from.
	Because as I said earlier, the county of San Jose put big fines against six churches who said, well, you know...
	Yeah, you say this, but you don't have any legal authority for this, number one.
	Number two, God says to do something else, so we're going to follow God.
	So he had six churches that had the big fines against him.
	Five of those churches, they just washed it away.
	You know, that's it. We don't care anymore.
	Why are they coming after Calvary Chapel San Jose?
	Well... To give you a timeline, okay, so we got the Trump lockdown and superstition pandemic that's put out there, the plandemic.
	And so, you know, Gavin Newsom escalates it to say, no singing in church, even if you're, you know, we're going to ease this up a little bit to let some people go to church in some circumstances and distancing, but you can't sing.
	And at that point, people start saying, all right, we've had enough.
	This is enough of pretend games.
	We're done. And, um, so then, uh, they start accumulating these fines and they go to court and emergency basis.
	The Supreme court says you can't do this stuff.
	And that was in January of 2021.
	That's why they say, well, we've accumulated against you $1.2 million in fines from August until January because the Supreme court shut it down in January.
	And so that's why I'm confident that they're going to win with this thing.
	Because San Jose is thumbing their nose at the Supreme Court.
	But anyway, so that was August 2020 through January 2021.
	February, they stop all that stuff.
	But then in June...
	And the fines are still up there against the other churches, right, that were subsequently released.
	But in June, you had 25 people demonstrating at this church of hundreds of people, maybe thousands.
	I don't know how big it is.
	And these are 25 people protesting the fact that there was Tony Perkins, who was head of the Family Research Council, was there.
	They're protesting the fact that he stood for traditional marriage and things like that.
	They called him hateful because the Southern Poverty Law Center had called the Family Research Council a hate group.
	Do you remember that a few years ago?
	Some guy goes to their offices in Washington and he says, I've got Chick-fil-A for the people here.
	I know these Christians eat Chick-fil-A. Well, I don't.
	But anyway, you know, they got Chick-fil-A here.
	And he's got a gun, and the security guard, I forget exactly how this thing worked out, but there's an altercation there.
	The security guard is suspicious about this, and he pulls out his gun.
	The security guard is there.
	The security guard got shot.
	The other guy got shot, but he stopped him.
	And he was doing that, he said, because the Southern Poverty Law Center had identified the Family Research Council as a hate group.
	A hate group because they stood for traditional marriage and things like that, and traditional Christian beliefs.
	And so Tony Perkins was speaking from the Family Research Council in D.C., was speaking at this church, and they have a little tiny group of a couple dozen people, led by a school teacher.
	Who else, right? Who else?
	The rally organizer was a high school history teacher.
	She said, I'm not protesting against Christianity.
	That's right, you're protesting against Christ.
	That's who you're protesting against.
	You hate what Christ had to say about family and about marriage and about sexuality.
	You hate all that stuff.
	The Southern Poverty Law Center said...
	Their claim was that Perkins' statements, the Family Research Council, was an attack on LGBT freedom, and they had to be opposed, end the bullying, and said that these LGBT people were involved in covert tactics to recruit children.
	Well, the only thing I disagree with Tony Perkins on is it's not covert.
	Of course, this was two years ago.
	But it's pretty overt to bully and to recruit children.
	And so they called them racist and homophobic and all the rest of the stuff and hateful hate group because of Southern Poverty Law Center, these two dozen people.
	One person, church member, who was 25, asked one of the protest organizers why the demonstrators were calling Calvary Chapel a white supremacist church.
	He said, we don't teach white people are superior to another race, which is a definition of white supremacy.
	He said, can you point out how the Calvary Church thinks white people are superior to another race?
	Well, that's not their definition at all.
	They say, you know, white people are white supremacists without even knowing it, merely by the fact that they're white.
	They're the racist. They're the skin color racist.
	Anyway, the organizer cited the Southern Poverty Law Center's report that Tony Perkins and the Family Research Council had once purchased Klansman David Duke's mailing list for use in a Louisiana political campaign that he was managing.
	And so the person says, well, I can't speak to that.
	I'm not going to defend him on those issues, but I think everybody deserves a fair hearing of this.
	Let me point out, though, that if this is their complaint against the Family Research Council, and again, I don't know if it's true or not.
	They purchased a mailing list from him.
	This is the Southern Poverty Law Center.
	I did a report on them about 10 years ago.
	I called it Prophets of Hate.
	They're out prophesying in everybody's hate, but I spelled it P-R-O-F-I-T-S. Prophets.
	That's how they profited. Do you understand the person who created the Southern Poverty Law Center?
	This is what I would have said to the guy that was there.
	Of course, this kid's 24 years old.
	He probably doesn't know this stuff. When I did that report, he was 14.
	So anyway, do you know how Morris Deese got his start?
	The guy who founded the Southern Poverty Law Center?
	He has now made a name for himself by opposing all things Ku Klux Klan, and yet he defended the Ku Klux Klan when they attacked the Birmingham buses, beat the people on the buses, set fire to the buses.
	Morris Deese, the founder of the Southern Poverty Law Center, defended the Ku Klux Klan, and he made a lot of money doing it.
	He made about what the typical median family income was, you know, for at that time, early 1960s, annual income.
	You know, he made that off of that one case.
	But it wasn't enough money for him.
	He decided that he could make more money doing mailing lists, mailing lists, than he could being a lawyer and defending the Ku Klux Klan.
	And so that was his only involvement in the Civil Rights Movement, was to defend the Ku Klux Klan.
	And then he reinvented himself with this mailing list stuff.
	He had a big mailing list business.
	And when Jimmy Carter ran for president, after all the civil rights stuff was done, he ran for president in 1976 and got elected.
	And that 1976 election, Morse Deese goes to him, and now again, Morse Deese has not been practicing law, but he's been practicing with mailing lists, and he says, look, I know how to target people.
	Give me your list of Democrats, and I'll do it for you for free.
	The only thing I want is to be able to freely use those names once this campaign is over.
	And that became the mailing list on which he built his business, the Southern Poverty Law Center.
	His mailing list business.
	And he used that to build it.
	And so these people say, well, you know, Tony Perkins purchased a mailing list from David Duke.
	Well, even if that's true, he didn't defend David Duke.
	This guy defended the Ku Klux.
	Morris Deist, the Southern Poverty Law Center people, defended the Ku Klux Klan people who were violent.
	Not just racist and hateful.
	They were violent. They were beating people, burning buses and the rest of this stuff.
	And of course, you know, they're profits of hate that they have.
	Even the left criticizes the Southern Poverty Law Center as being a grifting operation.
	They have channeled hundreds of millions of dollars offshore.
	Anyway, he says, the pastor said, our church is filled with people all over the world from every kind of background, and we have one thing in common.
	We have experienced the cleansing power of the blood of Jesus Christ, period.
	I think this whole back and forth of the LGBT people that they had, five months after this stuff was already over, I think that's why this judge is holding them out as a separate issue.
	These other churches have been let go.
	These other churches have been compensated for their legal fees, but they're still coming after this one church.
	Because we saw the same thing, if you remember, when I talked to Artur Pulaski out of Canada.
	He had a ministry in that urban city where he was helping the homeless, and he was a sidewalk preacher, and they were just running one positive news story about him after another.
	He's doing everything he could to help the homeless people.
	He's preaching on the street and doing a great job.
	The media loved him.
	And then he had somebody come up to him one day, And whatever passage he was in, and there's many of them in the Bible, talks about what legitimate sexual relationships are, a man, a woman, inside a marriage, and about gender, whatever it was that offended this LGBT guy.
	He got in his face afterward and said, I'm going to shut you down.
	And he said, ever since that day.
	The police have been constantly harassing him.
	I forget how many tickets he said he'd gotten, but it was unbelievable.
	Constantly harassing him with petty violations and all the rest of the stuff.
	I am absolutely, I would bet big money that that's what's really behind this.
	And that judge is going to go down pretty big.
	Because again, you know, this was shut down by the Supreme Court.
	And these people are going to take this county all the way to the Supreme Court.
	They're going to get a good dose of this.
	And if you go back at the time, you go back to February of 2021, after these churches won at the Supreme Court, they were saying a lot of things like, we have the right to assembly, we have the right to go to church, it's in the Constitution, there's nothing wrong with any of this, there's nothing that's going on in the church that was proven to be bad.
	In other words, nobody's been shown to be sick, nobody has died.
	So, you know, we're talking about quarantine of healthy people.
	Nonsense like that.
	And so that was, again, going back to February 2021.
	The news articles are saying across California, other churches have defied this and so forth.
	It all went back to Gavin Newsom, which, by the way, you know, many people, I think it's probably a lot of truth to it.
	You know, who are the people who are going to be running on the Democrat side?
	Well, you know, RFK Jr. has announced.
	You got Marianne, the crystal gazer, who has announced.
	But, you know, Biden is not in great shape.
	If he steps down, is Lala Harris going to join in?
	Or is it going to be Gavin Newsom who's going to come in?
	I think it's going to wind up being Gavin Newsom versus RFK Jr.
	in the Democrat primaries.
	That's just my prediction anyway.
	But they've already won a big victory.
	On some of these other issues, the same church in the same county.
	This is a story from August of 2022.
	This is a month after the altercation with LGBT. The pastor wins in court after endless persecution was the story there.
	State officials did all they could to shut down the church.
	They chose to reopen in May of 2020.
	And so, you know, they fought this thing.
	I'm not going to get into all the details of it.
	But there's case after case, you know, different jurisdictions and winning most of the way up and then eventually winning in the Supreme Court.
	And they're going to win again.
	So, you know, it's been a constant fight.
	Back and forth. The persecution against Pastor McClure and his church continued.
	Then on February 2021, the Superior Court once again held him and the church in contempt of court, adding another $200,000 fine.
	But at this point, pastors are fined more than $200,000 in sanctions.
	However, those fines, they had won in that case at the appeals court.
	So... They got the fines dropped, and that was in August of 2022.
	But they're still coming after them.
	That was fines of $200,000.
	They're still coming after them for $1.2 million.
	They let the other five churches go.
	And here's the deal, okay?
	It's the taxpayers who are going to lose on appeal.
	The taxpayers will lose.
	For having elected a government like that, that's the price they pay.
	But the rest of us will win because this is going to result in a case that is going to have national prominence and is going to set up a very important precedent.
	CDC hired an ad firm To write news articles promoting flu shots for kids and elderly, we now see.
	This was something that was funded by the CDC under Trump in September of 2020.
	And what they did was they gave tremendous amounts of money to certain organizations.
	They had a multi-year contract, a $32 million contract between Weber Shandwick and the CDC's Center for Immunization.
	And what they were doing was they were writing things that looked like news articles.
	And in many cases, they didn't have any disclaimer anywhere.
	And these news articles were pushing getting flu shots primarily.
	It was fundamentally deceptive.
	And, you know, not just the information that was in it, but even pretending to be a news article rather than a promotion for the pharmaceutical companies.
	Contract could be renewed.
	So this is a $32 million contract.
	It could be renewed for another $55 million contract.
	You know, Donald Trump... Gave $250 million to the Ad Council to push the mRNA vaccine.
	But here we have, you know, $87 million to push flu shots from the Trump administration.
	See, what is really galling to me about all this stuff?
	Not only did he run it through and stop all the tests to see if it was safe or effective, but even he paid them for it in advance.
	He built a factory for Johnson& Johnson.
	And then he even paid for their ads.
	He paid to have it delivered.
	He had the military deliver it.
	And he paid for the ads.
	Every year, the CDC launches a flu vaccination campaign seeking to vaccinate every person in the U.S. ages six months and older.
	This is why I knew exactly what was going on.
	It was the same M.O. that they would do every year.
	And, of course, you know, we now have the...
	Fauci thing from October 2000.
	How do we get everybody in the world to take an untested flu shot?
	Well, we do it from the inside.
	We do it with disruption. We do it iteratively.
	So they give some examples of this.
	This is in a Children's Health Defense article.
	And, you know, again, trying to pretend that it is a news article getting paid $87 million?
	By the Trump administration for nothing but lies and propaganda.
	We're going to take a quick break and we're going to be joined at the top of the hour by our guest who's going to talk about Operation Sandman.
	What is it? When is it likely to happen?
	What will be the implications for all of us?
	I think you'll be very interested in this, but we're going to take a quick break and we'll have a little bit of a lead up with some financial news before we have him join us.
	We'll be right back. Analyzing
	The Globalist Next Moon.
	And now, The David Knight Show.
	Thank you.
	I want to talk a little bit about where we are with some of these cryptocurrencies.
	And I've mentioned a little bit of this in the past, so I hope it's not too repetitive.
	But of course, a lot of people don't catch the show every single day.
	I went into more detail on it on Saturday.
	I was able to guest host for Bradley Dane.
	I appreciate the opportunity to do that on the GCN Network.
	And I always find people who used to listen to me there on the radio who think that I'm gone or dead or whatever Alex is telling them.
	I don't know. So it's always good to be there.
	But I want to talk a little bit about what's going on with CBDC before we start talking about Operation Sandman.
	And I think I mentioned this here.
	The feds are actually doing weather models now.
	And Mishtalk, and they had the article on Zero Hedge, is laughing at him, saying, are you kidding me?
	They don't have a good model for the economy.
	They can't control the economy.
	We're in between a rock and a hard place here, between inflation and the recession.
	So they're going to focus on the weather.
	Do they not understand what's going on?
	Well, you have to understand that the purpose of this is Is to make a case for banning crypto.
	Climate is the basis for which they're going to, the virtue signal to roll this out.
	Think about how many things that they have done to us on the basis of climate.
	And this is one of the reasons why I'm very concerned about RFK Jr.
	Look, he's got a lot of good things to say about CBDC, a lot of good things to say about vaccines.
	And I'm glad that he's going to be the person that they're going to come up against to try to shut down the vaccines.
	You know, Trump was not even trying.
	Perhaps he was trying for the other side.
	When he starts saying things like, oh, he could inject sunlight into your veins.
	I don't know. You know, how does that work?
	No, he'll give a rational explanation for all this.
	But, very concerned about where he is on the climate stuff.
	True believer. And if you go back 15 years, 10 years even, he was saying people who deny climate warming are traitors to this country.
	They're not patriots. They're traitors.
	They need to be gagged and shut up.
	They need to be arrested. They need to be put in prison.
	It's like, okay, well, I need an explanation for that.
	Because it is going to be an open air prison and they will use a climate lockdown and they'll do the rest of this stuff and that is where we're going to go.
	But when you look at all of this, it really comes back to this narrative that's being pushed all the time.
	New York Times, even Children's Health Defense, on the same day, Talking about the real-world costs of Bitcoin.
	You see, we're supposed to ignore all of the processing power and the energy consumption for artificial intelligence, deep learning, and we're supposed to forget about all of the processing power that is used for the surveillance state.
	To create these biometric databases and to analyze everything that we do in real time and to constantly spy on us.
	Forget about all that kind of stuff.
	And they want us to just focus on cryptocurrency, which does use a lot of power, but no more than these other ones.
	And so if we look at where this is all headed, the key thing, I think, is to understand where the Bank of International Settlement is going.
	The Bank of International Settlement has their project icebreaker.
	And they have already done this as a test case.
	As a matter of fact, they did it for a couple of months and they shut it down.
	This is being done right now.
	They're starting at the level of wholesale.
	So at the same time, the Federal Reserve is signing up banks on their FedNow program, which they're going to make it go live with it this summer.
	I think it was July, I think.
	But as of April, they're already collecting data.
	They're collecting data on you and I. And that is the wholesale phase of it.
	And then they're going to the next step is FedCoin, where they go retail.
	That's when you've got the real CBDC. But the rest of the stuff is preparation.
	They're building it. They're building their databases.
	They're running their tests and so forth.
	And at the same time, the Federal Reserve here in the United States is doing this with the private banks.
	You have the Bank of International Settlement, which is the central bank of all the central banks, to have just concluded their project icebreaker, which was the central banks passing the information back and forth with each other.
	They're building the infrastructure.
	They're building the prison around us.
	It's an invisible prison.
	It is a wireless prison, but it is a prison nevertheless.
	And they are building it and practicing it at every single level.
	And they're going to drop the hammer on us, just like they built all the presumed legal authority to do all this pandemic stuff to us.
	They modeled it. The first model was two months before 9-11.
	Then they had a false flag attack a week after that was supposed to justify two months later putting out the model legislation.
	And then they practiced it on an annual basis.
	You see, they don't just run out and do something like you and I would do.
	I mean, they really study this stuff.
	They practice it.
	They lay down a legal foundation basis for it.
	They buy politicians and on and on.
	And then one day, just like they did with this plandemic, They pull the trigger, and they drop this thing on us.
	So the Bank of International Settlement, they have Project Icebreaker.
	As I pointed out last week, they also have a, there's another project that is put out with involvement of the International Monetary Fund, and they call that Unicorn.
	Unicorn. I call it Unicorn.
	Unicorn, right?
	We have FedCoin. And then we have the unicoin, universal, unified, the one coin to rule them all, you see.
	That is the objective, to have one global digital currency, one mark of the beast.
	And they're going to have to have that.
	To unify and have global governance.
	And of course, some people get confused about that.
	There was already a Unicoin that was put out a couple of weeks ago.
	Steve Wozniak was one of the founders of that.
	And it was a mixture of cryptocurrency as well as some investment instruments and stuff.
	Forget about that. The IMF just, you know, took the name.
	They don't care. You know, they're also saying we're going to take the name crypto.
	We're going to get rid of all the cryptocurrencies.
	We're going to get rid of Bitcoin.
	Crypto will mean in the future what we say it means.
	It will refer to our proof of power, if you will, our proof of stake, our proof.
	We don't have any proof.
	It's just it's what we say it is, right?
	It's a fiat, proof of fiat digital coin instead of proof of work, which is what Bitcoin and the other cryptos are about that.
	So IMF has been involved at the same time with all of this.
	They have, you know, the crypto people.
	And I've got a message here from Rockfan.
	Thank you, Little Ford. Appreciate the tip.
	Little Ford Schoolhouse.
	Thank you for what you do, David, my husband, and I love your show.
	Well, thank you very much. I appreciate that.
	I see that our guest is ready.
	So just keep that in mind.
	We've got Unicoin, the International Monetary Fund.
	These people are relaying the structures of how they're going to have a single, unified digital currency.
	And they're implementing it at all these different levels.
	Between the central banks, between the central banks and the existing commercial banks, because they're restructuring the entire financial system.
	So, what is coming?
	Well, we're going to talk about Operation Sandman, and we'll be right back with our guest, Capitalist Eric.
	That's what he goes by.
	We'll be right back with him.
	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 sharing.
	If you can't support us financially, please keep us in your prayers.
	TheDavidKnightShow.com All right, welcome back. We're going to talk to someone.
	I'll give you a little bit of his background here.
	He wants to remain anonymous here, but he does have a WordPress blog, CapitalistEric.WordPress.com.
	I saw some of his articles were published on CivilDefenseManual.com, Jack Lawson's site, and I wanted to talk to him.
	His background... He's a Bachelor of Science degree in Economics, a Master's degree in Finance, and a Doctorate degree in Computer Science.
	And so he wanted to talk about, and I wanted to talk to him, I should say, about Operation Sandman.
	He certainly understands where we are in terms of the fragility of the dollar.
	Of the threat of CBDC. And so I wanted to go over all of that and what he sees as a scenario about how they might roll this thing out on us.
	So joining us now is Eric.
	Thank you for joining us, sir. Good morning, sir.
	Thank you. A little correction.
	My doctorate is actually information systems.
	It's not an IT. It's more data analysis, number crunching for decision makers.
	Oh, I see. Okay, good.
	Statistics on steroids.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah. Probably, well, we'll just leave it at that.
	That's very interesting.
	Tell us a little bit about Operation Sandman.
	Where did this come from? What do you know about it?
	Operation Sandman started out basically as a rumor a couple of years ago.
	Steve Quayle was talking about it.
	And bottom line is that there was somewhere between 130 to 140 countries that were looking to repudiate the use of the U.S. dollar in one day.
	Basically kind of a sneak attack on an economic front.
	And this has been...
	This theory has been hanging out there the entire time.
	Now, it came to my attention, obviously, a couple of years ago when we were first talking about it.
	But then, most recently, about three, four weeks ago, the president of Kenya was making a speech, and he said, by the way, if you have dollars, you've got about two weeks to get out of them.
	After that, you're going to lose your value.
	And... That's where this immediately popped up again as a viable event, I guess you would say.
	And so it takes on more meaning now as we're watching Brazil, Saudi Arabia, India, Pakistan, the rest, turn away from the dollar for their international trade.
	Well, and of course, what we've seen is the dollars come under attack from our administration.
	They've done more to undermine the dollar than any foreign country has.
	They're driving people out of the dollar into any other way of doing this.
	He's done the same thing for the dollar internationally.
	That Pierre Trudeau or Justin Trudeau, I keep referring to Pierre, that Trudeau did to protesters when he froze their accounts.
	And so on an international level, you know, he's like, whoa, wait a minute, you know, he can steal anything from us and we'll do it.
	He's already doing it, that type of thing.
	So, yeah, the attack is for real.
	And it's we has met the enemy and he is us.
	Yes. But the interesting thing is that the American people are not nearly as stupid as the administration thinks.
	I mean, what's $526 billion pulled out of the banks in the last month, six weeks, something like that?
	So there's an ongoing run on the banks.
	That's the first thing.
	Then internationally, other countries are making a run on the U.S. banks, the U.S. Fed, as well.
	So this is an ongoing...
	It is...
	It is turning into a refidiation of the dollar.
	It's happening right now.
	I mean, they're trying to cover it up, but even when MSNBC is having to admit the truth, you know we're not able to keep it under wraps anymore.
	So, there is a military aspect where this comes into play with Project Sandman, where it becomes a viable option for them.
	If you recall back during the collapse of the Soviet Union, When the Russian ruble, the Soviet ruble, collapsed, their military was paralyzed, right?
	They literally weren't able to get food, fuel, anything to their bases around the world.
	And so, if the U.S. dollar was repudiated in a similar fashion now, this is just a revelation I came up with the last few days or so, if the U.S. dollar was repudiated by Operation Sandman, It would basically collapse the Ukraine front.
	Yeah. Because it would have no more support.
	It would also collapse the European Union since the euro and the dollar basically joined the hip.
	And... Right now, with the U.S. administration being, you know, their mad dog barking crazy right now and rattling their nuclear sabers and so forth, you know, if the dollar collapses, the economy collapses, the administration is going to have to worry more about people with pitchforks and torches at their gates than they are going to be trying to fight a war over Ukraine that nobody really cares about.
	I agree. And yet we'll see Marco Rubio saying, well, you know, this is really bad.
	We could lose the reserve status of this and that's going to impact who we could punish with sanctions on.
	He doesn't even think about what it's going to do to us domestically.
	It's just about, you know, he's got this lever of power that he's using against other people of the American empire and it's going to remove that tool.
	But I remember when something similar to that happened in New Zealand.
	I remember when they, you know, hit the wall because they didn't have reserve currency status and they couldn't just spend money infinitely without any, you know, accounting or reckoning like the Federal Reserve is doing.
	And their fiscal mismanagement hit.
	And I remember that their officials who were in embassies in the U.S. and other countries, they didn't have airfare to get home.
	Yeah. They couldn't need to borrow money.
	These are the embassies.
	The embassy staff and the ambassadors don't have any money.
	Everything stops. Right.
	One of the things you're talking about with Marco Rubio, well, when the dollar gets dropped as a bullsever currency, that is going to happen.
	It is happening right now.
	This cannot be stopped.
	It is going to happen.
	And, you know, the impact for just normal people is...
	Everything that we import, that's all going to stop.
	Or it's going to be priced so high that most people can't afford it.
	So what you see at Amazon, you get your bananas from Ecuador, you get your green grapes from Chile and so forth when you go to the supermarket.
	That's all going to come to a stop.
	Walmart, if you can't make it locally, you ain't going to get it.
	But there's another aspect that people, they keep thinking, well, who's going to be the new reserve currency when the dollar collapses?
	Well, historically, there has to be a reserve currency because you couldn't get fast information.
	You had to have a standard that everybody believed in.
	Nowadays, There's no need for a world reserve currency because you can get instant information as far as exchange rates and come up with a fair price, fair trade, immediately without a need for a reserve currency.
	So the need for the dollar to be that is gone.
	It's obsolete. Let me ask you, we talk about the fact that it's no longer necessary to have a world reserve currency because of computerization and communication and that type of thing.
	And yet we see, as I was just talking about before you came on, you see that the Bank of International Settlement is pushing their project icebreaker about how they're going to...
	You know, have digital currencies pass back and forth between the central banks of different countries.
	And then also you have Unicoin, okay, which, you know, the IMF is pushing this out, and then every country's got its digital currency.
	How do you see this shaking out?
	Because, you know, a lot of this is not really out of any financial necessity.
	But it's out of a desire to control people centrally, right?
	It's about a massive ID program.
	I think it's the fastest way for them to get to their global ID, which is, you know, where they want to go.
	They can get there a number of different ways.
	They can get there with biometric identification.
	They can get there with vaccine passports.
	But the fastest and most direct way to get the greatest amount of control, the quickest, I think, is the CBDC. So they're all looking at this.
	How do you see all that stuff shaking out, these different competing things?
	To start off with, the arrogance of these people is just eye-popping.
	It's just unbelievable.
	I agree. But the IMF, the World Bank, and all this, they're going to fail.
	They are plain going to fail.
	The CBDCs are going to fail.
	It's not going to happen.
	See, here's the thing.
	We go back to Russia and Ukraine and all of that.
	If you go back to March of last year, excuse me, 2021, about a year ago, Nathaniel Rothschild, from the Rothschild family, the fractional reserve banking system family, they sent out an email to the UK Parliament saying, hey, you have to win in Ukraine because if you don't, our system is dead on its feet.
	Right? Because The Western financial system, it's all fractional reserve systems.
	It's all interrelated.
	It's all a big Ponzi scheme.
	The Ponzi has to keep growing by bringing in new payers, which means now they need Russia.
	They need China. And those guys are not buying into the system.
	The financial system of the West is a Ponzi scheme, and it's all consumers.
	We make some airplanes and some tanks and stuff, but all of the mining, all of the energy and so forth, it comes from producer countries, none of which are standing onto the Western financial system.
	That's 7 billion people versus 1 billion that are trapped in this Ponzi.
	The other 7 billion people, they're turning away from it.
	The Ponzi is collapsing.
	That's why we saw the failure of Silicon Valley Bank and Credit Suisse and the rest of it.
	It's all coming down.
	They have to save themselves by forcing Russia and China in, and it's not going to happen.
	That's what the war in Ukraine is really about.
	It's the eastern financial system of producers against the western financial system, which is a Ponzi and consumers.
	The Ponzi is going to collapse.
	The CBDC, I mean, it's a cherry on a poop sandwich, okay?
	It's not going to happen because nobody's going to go with it.
	Yeah, nobody wants it. They're going to go with currency.
	They want it. They're playing their games between the Bank of International Settlement and the other central banks and between the other bankers, but the consumers don't want it.
	When we've seen that in Nigeria...
	Where they rolled this thing out, they thought, well, let's try Nigeria.
	It's a pretty big country, and it's got a lot of adoption of Bitcoin compared to other countries around there.
	So let's do the CBDC. And it was a total failure.
	Everybody ran to Bitcoin.
	But what they learned from it, Eric, is that...
	I think what they learned from it was they've got to go after cryptocurrencies first.
	And I think we're seeing a lot of that.
	They're explicitly talking about that in the wake of Silicon Valley Bank, in the wake of FTX. Those things may have been organic.
	They may have been engineered. You've got people like Elizabeth Warren, who is now hanging her hat on her anti-crypto credentials and wants to come after it full force.
	But I think that even things like the Restrict Act, I think the first, you know, this is a very broad act that is going to take away a lot of our freedoms.
	But if I look at it, my feeling is that its first target is going to be crypto because you've got the massive fines if somebody uses a VPN, massive fines if you use somebody that they say that's prohibited.
	So all they have to do is say, well, you're not going to deal with Binance anymore.
	With your crypto stuff, they're prohibited.
	And then if you do it, there's a fine.
	But if you try to hide the fact that you're doing it from the U.S. with a VPN, with a virtual privacy network, then they'll hit you with a million-dollar fine.
	And those kinds of big fines like that tells you that they're really coming after financial users.
	And so I think that that's the real part.
	What do you think about the Restrict Act?
	Is that the way you read it as well?
	How do you think this is going to roll out?
	I think they've got to take out crypto first.
	What do you think? The Restrict Act is the most horrible piece of...
	It's the most horrible thing I've ever seen.
	Unbelievable. It cannot be overstated.
	And the impact for cryptos and so forth, anything that's outside what the government wants, yes, they're going to go after it.
	But the thing is that there's a fundamental flaw in the cryptos in that people say, yes, the strength is that it's decentralized.
	That's true. But you still have on-ramps and off-ramps.
	They don't have to go after the crypto itself.
	That's right. If you cannot exchange it for something else...
	And they've got two points of vulnerability.
	Not only is it the on and off ramps, which is the financial controls.
	You know, how do you get your money into it or out of it through the banking system?
	But the other aspect of it is they can, you know, it uses a lot of power.
	They're right about it. They want to use the fact that it uses a lot of power to say it's got to be shut down because it's going to burn the planet up, that type of nonsense, right?
	Climate stuff. And so that's going to be their justification for coming at it, but it also makes it very easy for them to find where these places are.
	And so both of those things makes it very vulnerable, even though it's decentralized, the fact you've got the on-off ramps through the financial system that's there, and the fact that they're on the power grid.
	They use so much power, they're not Or if they were independent, I even saw something where somebody said, hey, we can have small nuclear reactors.
	It's like, okay, you set up a small nuclear reactor.
	They're going to know where you are with that, too.
	They're going to come after them that way, I think.
	Yes, they can. One of the things people don't understand is that, well, the government monitors all internet traffic.
	Yes, at the internet service providers, at the hubs where everything comes in, they duplicate everything.
	The massive data center for the NSA over in, what is it, Utah, as well as the duplicate over in Maryland, they vacuum up everything, and they can go back and analyze it later.
	So you say, oh, well, I'm just on a local...
	It's going to go to a main service provider and then back to their data centers.
	You can't hide. Yes.
	You cannot hide. Which makes it so absurd that they would complain about the power footprint of anybody else when they've got these masks.
	Data centers scraping everything, storing everything, mining everything.
	They mine data instead of crypto coins, and they're constantly doing that.
	It's such hypocrisy for them to complain about it.
	And it's amazing to see the New York Times and other people completely ignore what the surveillance state is doing in terms of its footprint of power.
	But yeah, they are scraping everything up.
	They're saving everything.
	And I guess some of the articles I've seen, they're expecting that at some point in the future, They're going to have quantum computing or something so powerful they'll be able to go back and break all encryption and, you know, do a forensic expose of all their enemies at that point.
	It's just amazing what megalomaniacs they are, isn't it?
	It's kind of funny. Yes, it's like Hitler, you know, the Russian troops are closing in on Berlin and he's sitting there talking about how are we going to build this new palace and what?
	Yeah. You know? Let's hope that their days are over as well.
	Let's get them in their bunkers and then we'll deal with them after that.
	So what do we do about this?
	How do we create, you got any ideas about how we create a gray market or black market?
	How do we start to prepare for that?
	To get away from their centralization.
	You know, we've had a couple of situations in a couple of different states.
	You know, Texas is talking about a gold-backed cryptocurrency.
	You've got Tennessee here.
	We're talking about having a public state bank to be kind of parallel to the Federal Reserve System in some ways, kind of like you see already in North Dakota.
	So there's different ways that people are looking at this, trying to get away from this consolidation, the centralization.
	What can we do as individuals?
	Very simple. Gold and silver.
	I know it's not nearly as sexy as going into crypto and having your passwords and your thumb drives and all that good stuff.
	Go old school.
	Because number one, there is no counterparty risk.
	There is counterparty risk with crypto in the fact that it can still be isolated with regard to on-rents and off-rents.
	If you cannot exchange it for something else, there is still a counterparty risk with gold and silver in your physical possession.
	That's very important.
	Physical possession. If you don't have it, You don't tell them.
	That's right. If you put it in a safety deposit box at the local bank, well, gee, there's an economic collapse.
	The bank just has to do their bail-ins, and they say, guess what?
	We're declaring force majeure.
	Your stuff, whatever, in the safety deposit box is gone.
	And fine, you might be able to sue them in a few years if they're still around, and if there's a justice system, and if you get an honest judge, and so on.
	Good luck on that.
	A lot of ifs there, isn't it?
	Yeah. A lot.
	And you know, just as we're talking about how they can identify the Bitcoin miners and shut them down because of their power usage, my other concern about it, and maybe there's a technical way to do it, but my concern about it is with the crypto stuff, What do you do if you've got no power and no internet?
	What do you do with that? I mean, it seems like, to me, you're cut off.
	Maybe there's something you do if you meet people in person with an external wallet.
	I don't know how that technology works.
	And that's my other concern about it.
	Certainly, a thief can break in and steal what you've got if you've got gold and silver or something like that, but Uh, there's so many more ways that people can steal from you, defraud you with all the crypto stuff because it is so complicated.
	And if you don't really understand the technology, you're at their mercy.
	It's kind of like, you know, going into the old classic thing when you would go to different countries in Europe and they've all got a different currency and you don't really know what they change.
	You just hold out your hand with some of the money and let them take what they want.
	You know, that type of thing. You're trusting that they're going to do the right thing.
	And that's the way I feel about the crypto stuff.
	And going back to the Restrict Act, they say basically anything that you do that is against our national policies is now a crime.
	So what if they come back and say, you know what, you can have Bitcoin, but if you try to spend it, It's against our national security interests, and you're now subject to the Restrict Act.
	Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Isn't that funny that they don't even try to make it sound positive?
	You know, they would usually do things like call it the Patriot Act or something.
	They don't even try to make it sound good.
	I mean, they're so in-your-faces, this is the Restrict Act.
	You know, we're going to nail you with this thing to the wall.
	They don't even try anymore. Yes, indeed.
	It is. It's absolutely, it's O'Reilly, and it really is.
	I've never seen anything like it.
	It is. There are some other aspects as well that people need to be aware of with regard to gold and silver.
	And that is, in fact, I was talking with some guy just yesterday who said, well, you know, I sold my gold because it wasn't appreciating enough.
	I wasn't getting enough of a return on it.
	Gold and silver is not about making a profit.
	It's about taking whatever purchasing power you have and saving it.
	But there's a key element here that most people are not aware of.
	In fact, I sent you the link before.
	It's usdebtclock.org.
	It's very important.
	If you go and look at it, there's a lot of numbers and stuff.
	But if you go down in the lower right corner of it, usdebtclock.org, you'll see something that says paper-to-gold ratio now and paper-to-silver ratio now.
	For every physical ounce of gold, there are, according to my computer right now, 121.27 claims to that physical ounce of gold.
	In other words, there are 120 times more paper ounces than there are physical in existence, and it's almost 390 for silver.
	What this means is that a lot of people, in fact, they're pulling their cash out of the banks and they're saying, oh, I'm going to buy gold and silver.
	But they don't actually take possession of it.
	They just say, okay, I'm going to go buy some paper gold or silver ounces.
	And that way, whenever they need, they can go down to their local repository and pick it up.
	But the problem is that there's 120 other claimants out there that claim ownership to that same house.
	So unless you're the first guy in line, you would come and get it.
	It's as much of a Ponzi as the banking system.
	Yeah. Now, what they did was they set up these ETF things and, you know, you have, was it GLD and SLV are a couple of bigger ones, but there's several of them out there.
	And you can go in and you can buy, you know, just buy it instantaneously and you get it in units or like a tenth of an ounce that you can buy it typically.
	And so, you know, that is what that's created.
	Supposedly, that stuff, most of it is supposed to be backed up by physical gold or silver.
	In Shanghai or in London, you trust either of those places.
	And so that's what you wind up with are the paper gold and the paper silver.
	You get a fancy piece of paper.
	So there's a follow-on to this.
	If gold is running up somewhere around $2,000 an ounce right now, under the assumption that there's 121, 122 more ounces out there, This means that when this paper market collapses, along with the fractional reserve system, that all else being equal, you would expect the purchase price of gold to go up 121 times what the current spot price is right now.
	In other words, the purchasing power of gold when this whole thing goes down will be effectively $240,000 per ounce of current purchasing power.
	You follow what I'm saying? Oh, yeah.
	Yeah. And that's right.
	But, you know, what we're looking at there, and that's one of the things people look at and say, well, you know, gold is going sideways.
	Sometimes it goes down. Sometimes it goes up a little bit.
	But, you know, even if we were to talk about gold going from $2,000 roughly to, let's say, $8,000.
	That doesn't mean that the gold has gone up in value.
	That means that your dollar has gone down by a factor of four or five.
	Correct. What you're saying is you're really preserving your purchasing power when everybody else winds up with baskets full of Confederate currency.
	Yes. And keep in mind, too, the gold markets, gold and silver, have been manipulated for a long time.
	J.P. Morgan is working with the Fed because...
	Frankly, the Fed is a cartel of banks, including A.P. Morgan.
	So they short the gold numbers, or short the gold prices, short contracts out there on the markets.
	And then when the price starts to creep back up, they have the Fed print them out some money or digitally create it, drop it into their accounts, plus a few percentage points for their time.
	And in the meantime, they've suppressed the price of gold.
	And the same thing with HSBC with the Bank of London for silver.
	Keep in mind, people don't understand that the central banks, like I said, they're effectively one big cartel to fiat money system owned by the same people.
	That's why they all work in concert, because they're all owned by the same people, all controlled by them, not to our benefit, but to theirs.
	And this is why they suppress precious metal prices.
	But when the eastern financial block, which is the BRICS countries and so forth, when they prevail in this war with Ukraine and their financial system, and the western system collapses, the only thing that's going to be left is precious metals.
	Not even the cryptos, because they can block the on-ramps and off-ramps.
	All you're going to have left is precious metals because people say, well, it's going to be Venezuela.
	Well, when Venezuela collapsed, what did people do for currency?
	They took dollars.
	When the Weimar Germany collapse occurred, the hyperinflation, they were using francs, they were using British pounds, they were using US dollars.
	They had alternative currencies to go to.
	When the Western system collapses, there's nothing left to go to except precious metals.
	I agree. Yeah, it is kind of interesting that we see this recurring theme with everything that they do, and that is to detach us from reality by design.
	You know, we had the...
	We had the Bretton Woods after World War II where they said, hey, you know, we're going to pin it to gold because America's got most of the gold.
	We'll pin it to the U.S. dollar.
	That'll be the reserve standard.
	And so then they started just printing a bunch of money like you're talking about doing, you know, with the paper gold and paper silver.
	So then they came up with a petrodollar, which literally tied us to something that was real, to energy, right?
	Because that's what we're really talking about.
	We're not talking about oil and all the rest of these things that have been demonized in the press endlessly.
	We're talking about energy to do real things, whether you want to manufacture something or you want to travel somewhere or you want to heat your home or cook.
	You got to have energy.
	So that's a real thing.
	And now Biden is doing two things.
	He's destroying the dollar with his geopolitical games, but he's also trying to destroy the attachment to energy at the same time.
	So the petrodollar, both sides of the petrodollar, he's attacking with that.
	And it seems to me, Eric, that there's this...
	This common thing that is happening everywhere.
	We're going to shut down your world in 2020.
	We're going to tell you to isolate at home.
	But that's okay because you can get on the internet and you can Zoom into other people and you can do Zoom classes and you can have virtual travel and virtual work and all the rest of the stuff.
	They want to detach us from the real world For purposes of control.
	And that's really what they're doing in the financial world as well, it seems like, is to try to detach us from all this.
	Paper gold, paper silver is a part of that.
	And so we have to get back to the real world reclaiming skills and reclaiming our values and having real things that we can control ourselves rather than having somebody on high at a great distance telling us, no, this is the reality that you're going to live in.
	This is the virtual world that you're going to live in.
	Really, it seems to me like that is, besides centralization, it's the virtualization of everything that they are striving for.
	What do you think? I think you're exactly right.
	Look, we can talk about virtual this and virtual that.
	Zoom meetings, calls and so forth, virtual job, whatever.
	Virtual doesn't work as far as a virtual tank of gas.
	It doesn't work for a virtual loaf of bread.
	You still have to have...
	You can't have a virtual house or a virtual apartment.
	These things are real.
	And the prices for them are going to continue to go up as the dollar is destroyed.
	Right. And so what do you do to pay for those things?
	I know a lot of people talk about, okay, have your own garden, grow your own food.
	Well, myself, I live on the top of a mountain.
	Basically, we grow rocks up here and plant trees on the side of the hill.
	So what do I do? I started off as an electrician and economist and all the rest of this stuff.
	But you know what? I learned how to do welding.
	I work on cars.
	Other skills. My life is the same way.
	We're trying to learn skills that are going to be useful even after the dollar collapses.
	And ideally, things that you can do In countries where the economies are going to be going stronger, such as India, China, Russia, so forth, my expertise is in data centers, so I'm trying to get skills and build a clientele and so forth that will be useful and economically profitable,
	even in those areas, versus having to depend on the U.S. dollar, because it's People are going to be worried about, how do I turn this virtual loaf of bread into something I can eat?
	I'm going to get my Metaverse Bucks from Mark Zuckerberg so I can get some real food.
	I'm really wealthy on the Metaverse, but I haven't got anything in real life.
	It's kind of like Ready Player Go.
	Was that the name of that?
	Ready Player One, right?
	Ready Player One, yeah. I always get that wrong.
	And going back to your question as far as the Unicoin and the CBDC stores, One of the things, if you're poor and you have no prospects and you're basically living with government assistance in the cities, you're going to have no choice but to take these things on.
	That's right. People out in the countries, they're mechanics and farmers and so forth.
	You know what? They're not going to be very impressed by it.
	That's right. They're already starting that.
	You've already got some states and some jurisdictions where they're saying, well, beginning next year, kids from K-12, if they want to get their free lunch, we're going to do it with biometrics.
	And so we're going to collect it that way.
	And we've seen the same thing happen in the rollout in India for a national ID, the Adhar system that Bill Gates was pushing.
	They ran it out and got a lot of adoption by going to the poorest people who were dependent on the government and said, you know, hey, if you want to have your welfare stamps or your food stamps or your, you know, the other, your health care, you got to get the number.
	That's how it's going to roll out.
	And so that's going to be the way that they're going to push this thing out there if we don't have an alternative, something that is real.
	Biden's attempts you know just ramping up these emission standards to the EPA to effectively ban cars in just a few years and they talked about how old the cars are right now average life of the car is now like 12.3 years in America and I remember back in the 1970s it was a selling point from Volvo I remember them running ads saying, the typical Swede keeps their car for 11 years.
	Well, my take on that wasn't that Volvo was making such great cars because I knew better...
	But my take on it was, that's what socialism does to people.
	Because in the U.S., everybody was getting a new car like every two or three years.
	They could afford it, and that's become a luxury good.
	And so when we look at that in that context, as one person commented, said, now is a great time to learn auto repair.
	If it's 12.3 years now and it's going to get worse, you're going to be very valuable if you know how to repair a car.
	And you may need to know how to make some parts to 3D print them or something like that as well.
	You know, one of the things, to stay on a tangent, because I've been tinkering around with cars, I guess, 30 years now, but I bought a five-year-old BMW, but it had like 30,000 miles on it, so I got it for a sweet deal.
	And there's a couple little items with it.
	And it turns out that you can buy a scanner on Amazon called OBD Blink, Onboard Diagnostic Link.
	And in the report, you link it up to your cell phone using Bluetooth, and it will do a full diagnostic and tell you exactly what you need to fix.
	Yep.
	Yep.
	That's right.
	It's like 100 bucks.
	Whereas, okay, if I'm taking it with you, it's going to hit me for $300.
	And now I've got a tool that I can go around and plug into any car and pull up the diagnosis on it.
	Any car with a computer. Yeah.
	And I've got it.
	So my wife's SUV, I popped it up, and what do you know?
	There's all it is. So, the computers are, obviously, they're intimidating for people that like spin wrenches like me, you know, old Hawley carburetors, but there is an upside to it, and that is, you're not searching around trying to find the problem.
	You literally plug in through.
	But boom, you got about a few seconds and you're done.
	Yeah, especially if you want to go to an auction and, you know, you can get some really good deals at auction, but it's kind of, you know, pig and a poke.
	And if you got that OBD scanner, you put that in and, you know, you look at and you get a readout of the condition of this car.
	That's a pretty important thing.
	Yes. And you could get a really good deal.
	Yeah. Oh, absolutely.
	Absolutely. But the thing you were asking as far as what do we do for grey markets and so forth, we are going to get to that point.
	I don't see any way around it because the entire big pit for the entire Western financial system is going to fold in on itself.
	It is going to be, in my opinion, It is going to be vastly worse than the 1929 and the 1939 depression.
	Because the system has been building over the last 200 years.
	And when it folds in on itself, the only options we have is going to be precious metals and barter economy and if you have usable skills.
	So there is a downside in that if you have your savings tied up at 401k or you're thinking your retirement is going to be there, it's going to be vaporized.
	It is going to be gone.
	So all of your saving money in dollars are going to be gone, but guess what?
	All of your debts are going to be gone, too.
	Everything denominated in dollars is going to be vaporized.
	And it's going to come down to what you have to bargain, what you have for precious metals and so forth.
	So Bitcoin and so forth, Ethereum, Amero, whatever.
	Great, they're going to exchange digital currency for U.S. dollar that's going to be applied?
	I mean, how's that going to work?
	Yeah, and I think you look at the fact that BRICS has been around for a long time.
	Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa.
	They've grown quite a bit now, and they have really started moving.
	And I think the key thing about all this are the moves that have been made by China geopolitically to consolidate these oil producers in the Middle East.
	Look, China understands that We're good to go.
	But it's not going to work for big manufacturing.
	It's not going to work for a grid.
	China understands that.
	They've been given a pass, and so has India, in terms of Paris Climate Accord.
	But the biggest thing is that they have undermined this petrodollar and our connections to real energy in a way, in a very rapid way.
	Because of the actions of the Biden administration in Ukraine and the sanctions, this is really happening very, very quickly and very broad, I think.
	And I think it's going to really accelerate.
	That's why I think this, you know, all of a sudden shutting everything down and changing it is really going to happen very quickly because I'm astounded at how quickly China is making peace between enemies in the Middle East, something the U.S. has never been able to do.
	It's never been in their interest.
	Never even tried.
	Yeah. You're right.
	But, you know, what's raising on paying me?
	Sell a missile or a bomb or whatever.
	Come on. Yeah.
	Our policy has been divide and conquer.
	They're taking a different approach.
	They're creating to fight against us because we've done divide and conquer.
	They do the opposite. And that's going to be very, very powerful and it's going to happen very, very quickly, I think.
	You're, yes, and when you talk about the petrol, guess what?
	There's an article in Zero Ahead this morning talking about the petrol you want.
	Why? Yeah. Well, because China's the number one little importer right now.
	Mm-hmm. Gee, they have more market power than we do, and we've got, you know, Emperor Dumbledore in the White House, you know, talking about how we hate energy and so forth.
	China's like, yeah, we'll give you money, we'll buy, you know, Mm-hmm.
	How do you beat that?
	I agree.
	So the dollar repudiation is, it's not happening all at once.
	It's happening very, very fast.
	And it's like a big party and somebody realizes, hey, the party's coming to an end.
	Whoever's the last person out the door gets stuck with the bill.
	The countries are starting to jump out of the dollar and so forth.
	Whoever's the last person out, guess what?
	You get stuck. And so it's going to be a rush for the exits.
	And frankly, I'm surprised it hasn't already started.
	Yeah, I am too. And, you know, we've been talking about this.
	Many people that I talk to on a regular basis, we've been talking about this for a long time.
	But it seems to me like things are really accelerating.
	I don't know if you're familiar with the fourth turning that Strauss and Howe did, but I think that they are spot on.
	And I really do believe that these people think they've got to collapse us, and then they're going to, you know, have their new society in place by 2030.
	That's why I think this stuff is really accelerating.
	Yeah. You know, that seems to be the timeframe in which they want to have all this stuff happening.
	And they're perfectly capable.
	I don't even think that it's mismanagement.
	I think this is all deliberate.
	They deliberately want chaos and collapse.
	And they think that somehow they're going to come out on top on the back end.
	And I think that even includes war, because that has always been a part of these fourth turnings.
	And I think when the American empire gets desperate, it's going to really start striking out in all directions.
	You're absolutely... I agree.
	The idea that they're going to come in as the saviors with the CBDCs, you know, it's like Klaus Schwab, the bugs, you know?
	If I get a steak in my freezer, you can keep the bugs.
	If they come out with CBDCs, people are going to refuse it.
	They're going to go to alternatives. It's simply not going to happen.
	Because if the option is digital slavery and going to a new currency, then people will go to a new currency.
	They're not going to volunteer for slavery.
	I agree. So they think that they're going to...
	And I think the way they're going to do that is they want to try to shut down the alternative, which they see as crypto, because I think that's what happened in Nigeria.
	So they want to shut down CBDC. I think they're going to realize that they can't really shut down CBDC unless they collapse our infrastructure.
	I think they'll pull that trigger.
	I think they'll do that. Say, well, you know, hey, we'll pull the grid down, we'll pull the internet down, whatever, so we can shut down CBDC. I think they're capable of doing anything up to and including nuclear war to get what they want, which is to burn everything down and build their dystopian open-air prison system.
	I think that they'll do exactly that.
	Last year, one of my blogs, I said exactly that.
	Exactly that. They would rather go to nuclear war.
	Don't lose power.
	Because if we just, whatever they are, Rothschild family, the rest of them, their entire system is built on a policy, and they would rather go to war.
	Think of it this way.
	We try to make money, get wealthy, $100 million and so forth.
	They don't just have money.
	They own the money system and they can create whatever money they want, whenever they want, by whoever they want, by any politician they want, general name.
	They can do anything because they own the system.
	That is an amazing amount of power that most people just don't think about.
	They just don't realize that this must be owned by somebody.
	I agree. When China come in, the currency, instead of it being the promise of, oh, you want an interest?
	Well, we'll print up your debt and give it to you.
	Congratulations, you made a profit.
	You're actually saying, look, our currencies are going to be backed by a commodity.
	Whether it's gold or oil, grain, fertilizer, name it.
	There's actually something real behind it.
	It strips them of their power.
	Yes. And going back to that, Nathaniel Rothschild emailed to the UK Parliament last year when he said, you have to prevail in Ukraine where our system, in exact words, is dead on its feet.
	I agree. And that's the truth.
	Yeah. And so they will fight the bitter end.
	There is one way to stop it, and that is to collapse the system, the Western financial system, before they have a chance to provoke a nuclear war.
	Yes. That is our only hope at this point.
	You know, on the one hand, it's absolutely crazy that you're hoping that the rest of the country will pay a dollar because it's going to put us in the world.
	That's true. What would be even more of a world to hurt if we're in a global thermonuclear war?
	I agree. Absolutely.
	I agree. It has been very fascinating.
	I apologize. So we've had some difficulty, I guess, on your end.
	It's kind of breaking up a little bit.
	But I think we covered the gist of it.
	And I absolutely agree.
	I think you're spot on with the analysis of this.

	Thank you so much for joining us, Eric, and great talking to you.
	Thank you, sir. Thank you.
	Thank you. All right, we're going to take a quick break, folks, and we'll be right back.
	And I want to talk a little bit about free speech and about artificial intelligence and how these things come together with our election.
	Stay with us. 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.

	We have Elon Musk admitting that the feds had full access to your private Twitter messages.
	He says, the revelation blew my mind, he told Tucker Carlson.
	This is part of a, you know, Tucker Carlson last week had on Donald Trump for the full program, and now he's got another billionaire who is going to be on for the full hour.
	I'm sure that with his popularity and with all the billionaires that he knows, even if Fox News goes down this Dominion lawsuit, he'll be just fine.
	But who knew about this, right?
	Who knew? Who knew that they were looking at your private message?
	Seriously, you don't think that...
	Does that come as a surprise to anybody?
	It's nice to have the receipts there.
	You know, that's one of the things...
	I think the most subtle thing about Twitter has been the shadow banning, you know.
	That has been very deceptive.
	And I remember, you know, when they shut down Infowars and everything, me included, on these different sites, I didn't get shut down on Twitter.
	But everywhere else I got shut down without any notification.
	And then eventually the shadow banning came on Twitter as well.
	But, you know, Trump didn't do anything about it.
	He didn't use his power as a president.
	He didn't use his power as a celebrity.
	He didn't use his power as the most popular person on Twitter.
	He didn't create another website as a business, and he didn't do anything as president.
	Instead, what he did was he held a garden party and he brought in a bunch of people who had not been censored, including think tanks like the Cato Institute and the Heritage Foundation.
	He said, it's not a problem! The freedom of corporations is what's really important.
	And we don't want to step on the freedom of corporations to control the public square, the de facto public square.
	So we're just going to let this go.
	But anyway, a report on Forbes raised a lot of questions that have not been answered.
	About the issue of government influence on social media, these include whether the government just constantly monitored everybody's messages, or is it everybody's messages?
	Is it just some other people?
	Well, we've kind of had that question answered in the past by Michael Hayden, the guy who was the former head of the NSA and former head of the CIA, a real snake.
	And this guy, in one of his interviews, was hissing, we're not interested in everybody, we're interested in interesting people.
	So they will pick different people and they will monitor them constantly, I think.
	What kind of protections are in place to protect the privacy of users from snooping employees who might be curious about what celebrities are saying in DMs or what an ex-partner might be saying on the service?
	See, it's not just the government that is spying on you.
	It's also going to be people who work for Twitter.
	And again, as we look at all this stuff, Everyone is taking the tack.
	Well, it's great. I'm so glad that we have Elon Musk on our side.
	And yet, because he's out there going, he's doing more of these organizations.
	He's listing them as state media, you know, government funded or influenced by the government.
	Well, that's going to be basically all the establishment if he keeps going.
	I mean, they're screaming bloody murder because he did that with NPR. And PBS and the BBC and the CBC, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.
	And all these people say, well, that's not fair.
	That's not fair. Well, it's true, though.
	Right? Voice of America.
	Voice of America was created as a propaganda organization.
	By the way, that's where Tucker Carlson's dad worked.
	You know, Radio Free Europe and Radio Free, I think, did they have Radio Free Asia or something like that, but Voice of America.
	And you had the MUNT Act, which was put in to say, okay, we are going to fund media and it's going to push a government narrative out there, but we don't want government media propagandizing Americans.
	And so they put a bill in there to prohibit Voice of America and these other organizations from really having a say in the U.S. But at the same time, they created NPR and PBS and things like that.
	And now, under the Obama administration, it raised a lot of eyebrows when they got rid of the Munt Act.
	And it says, oh, okay, so they're going to directly propagandize us.
	They're just dropping the pretense.
	Again, they were doing it through NPR, PBS, and many other places.
	Guess what? Anybody ever heard of Operation Mockingbird?
	Has Musk ever heard of that?
	New York Times, Washington Post, they are government media.
	Just take a look at this leak that happened last week.
	Take a look at the leak and tell me that the New York Times and the Washington Post were doing all the investigation and the FBI is just tagging along?
	They were government mouthpieces for this whole thing about the Pentagon leak.
	And so are they government-sponsored media?
	Why, yes. And so then some of them push back against Elon Musk and says, well, it turns out if you're going to measure it by how much money they get, you know, well, NPR only gets 1% of its funding from the federal government.
	So what? You know, how much money do they pay the New York Times and Washington Post for this stuff?
	Or do they reward them with stories and other things that they can monetize?
	How are they rewarded for all this stuff?
	You don't necessarily have to have them write you a check in order to be state-sponsored media, as we all know.
	That's why we have the situation we do today in mainstream media.
	But some of these people have responded and said, well, you look at the amount of money that PBS gets, look at how much SpaceX and Tesla get.
	They get way more government money than NPR. And they're right.
	Twitter is government-funded.
	Controlled media was, you know, if you go back and look at the creation of all these social media companies, we know what's going on.
	And they, you know, whether or not Twitter gets any direct money, they do what the government wants.
	Just look at last week. The Indian government said, get rid of this guy, you know, ban his stuff.
	And Elon Musk did it not just in India, but worldwide.
	He banned this guy.
	So these people are coming back and saying, well, what about the space subsidies?
	You know, one of the first times I interviewed Eric Peterson, it was about Elon Musk.
	King of crony capitalism was Eric Peter's article.
	And it was true, even the LA Times was talking about it.
	Well, SpaceX, by itself, got $2.8 billion, with a B, in government contracts just last year.
	According to the Information News site, they've gotten a total of $15.3 billion from the government since 2003.
	We look at NPR last year.
	The U.S. government, the company requested, just last year, SpaceX requested $885 million subsidy, about 295 times more than NPR got last year.
	And they did that for their Starlink satellite.
	So you got SpaceX, you got Starlink, you got Tesla.
	Tesla's got a lot of money from the government.
	In this particular article, they say, well, they got a $465 million preferential loan from the U.S. Department of Energy in 2010.
	Now, Musk repaid that. However...
	If you look at their real business model, $7,500 tax credit, something like that, okay, throughout these years, they've sold the maximum of 200,000 cars to get that tax credit.
	Now, if it's $7,500, then it may have been less in earlier years.
	But at $7,500 a pop and 200,000 of those, we're looking at about $1.5 billion for Tesla as well.
	So this is happening at the same time you've got conservative news outlets just love Elon Musk.
	InfoWars loves him. WND loves him.
	Joseph Farah. I like Joseph Farah.
	I frequently cover their articles.
	He says Elon Musk just keeps making sense.
	Well, he says things that make a lot of sense.
	He does some things that make sense as well.
	But we need to really understand where he's coming from, especially when we look at WND and Joseph Farah.
	He's coming at it from a Christian perspective, the news.
	I like that about their news.
	But we have to understand that there's a lot of blatant hypocrisy.
	He'll talk about censorship and how censorship was done, and yet the reality is he's still doing it.
	He's doing it in a larger quantity, in a larger degree than was happening a year ago.
	That's demonstrably provable.
	MRCTV pointed that out, and others.
	When you look at his artificial intelligence, he's warning everybody about AI at the same time he's, and let's have a six-month moratorium, at the same time he's building his AI company.
	But Joe's affair says, well, it was Elon Musk, a former liberal, who sounds like a Christian or a Jew because he says, hey, if somebody sterilizes a kid, any parent or doctor who sterilizes a child before they are a consenting adult should go to prison for life.
	I agree. And he may be serious about that.
	But what we need to have the discernment about is we need to understand this guy is not a Christian.
	He's not a Jew. He's not a liberal either.
	He's a transhumanist.
	That's where he's coming from.
	He's a technocrat.
	His grandfather, Joshua Haldane, tried to overthrow the Canadian government back in the 1930s when you had people like H.G. Wells talking about this type of stuff.
	And they kicked him out.
	You know, he fled the country when he beat the rap.
	These people are transhumanists.
	They are technocrats.
	They think that because they have more money and they have more technology, they're smarter, they're better than you, and they ought to tell you what to do.
	You can see this all depicted in H.G. Wells' film, The Shape of Things to Come or Things to Come.
	He had a book. There was also a film.
	I can't remember which was which.
	But the bottom line is this is this elitist, global, elitist, technocratic attitude.
	And that's what is ultimately there.
	And that is not only their philosophy, it is their religion.
	They believe they're going to live forever.
	That's part of the transhumanism stuff there.
	They believe that they have the right and they're going to have the technology to read your mind and to control everything that you do.
	We need to have some discernment about this stuff.
	Just because this guy says some rational things doesn't mean he's not a billionaire megalomaniac.
	Who seeks to have worldwide domination?
	I don't know, maybe through an app that he could call X or something, you know?
	The X everything app.
	You know, payments, speech, everything controlled by X. And it's not just all of that.
	If you look at artificial intelligence and how it might be used, you know, he warns that AI could cause civilization to destroy itself even as he invests in it.
	That's the hypocrisy of Elon Musk.
	And I just have to look at this and think, you know, well, look, a lot of the people like Tucker, Alex, and Joseph, who are bowing down and worshiping this guy, because they think now he is a newly invented conservative or something.
	They need to understand where he is going.
	Musk hinted at his efforts with AI in his interview with Carlson.
	He said, we're going to start something which I call Truth GPT. Truth-seeking AI that cares about and understands the universe.
	Yeah, a lot of these AI guys, and I don't think Trump is really, or Musk is really any different.
	They think that they are creating a godlike intelligence that will rule us as if it were God.
	We need to have a little bit of discernment about what these guys' values are and what their vision is for our future as their slaves.
