	to free minds.
	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	As the clock strikes 13, it's Thursday, May the 4th, year of our Lord 2023.
	3.
	May the 4th be with you.
	We used to always, this is my son Whistler's birthday, and we used to always have some kind of a good action film to take them to on his birthday.
	That doesn't happen anymore.
	Movies are dead. And now the only action is war.
	We've got an attack on the Kremlin.
	Is it real? Is it a false flag?
	Does it really matter which?
	Because either way it's going to be used for escalation.
	And the attacks on our economy are escalating as well.
	We have, even as First Republic's corpse is being picked over by J.P. Morgan, we have yet another bank hopping up in troubled positions as the Fed does damn the recession full speed ahead and raises interest rates again.
	We're going to have Tony Arterburn as well as Gerald Salenti joining us today to talk about these economic developments.
	Stay with us, we'll be right back.
	We're also going to talk about a little known conference that happened about 16, 17 years ago that I didn't know about.
	My pastor mentioned it.
	And he was aware of it.
	I went back and looked. I think it's interesting in terms of the timeline, in terms of who was involved in setting up this agenda.
	This organization, at least the document that they put out, is kind of like Agenda 2030.
	And very specific about what they wanted.
	They don't have a timeline for it, but it is interesting to see how it has been used and adopted as a foundation for this insanity that we're now suffering from.
	Even now, when you think that it can't get any more insane, now we have the trans-ableism, and you've got Dr.
	Phil on TV putting this woman on who poured something into her eyes to make herself blind because she always wanted to identify as blind.
	This is just suicidal insanity.
	And we're normalizing this.
	We're encouraging it.
	We're saying, well, you know, that's your truth.
	And we don't try to help people who are crazy.
	We facilitate them.
	And then the rest of us must bow down and accept that as well.
	Frankly, I've had enough.
	I'm not going to do that.
	And when we look at the war situation, as it is escalating now, Understand Gerald Slenty's position in terms of RFK Jr.
	He's about the only candidate out there that is talking any sense about war.
	I don't see it on the Republican side from anybody.
	I don't see it from Trump. Trump says, oh yeah, I can stop it all.
	Yeah, exactly how?
	A lot of bravado, but no real understanding of what's going on.
	RFK Jr. does understand it.
	I understand. That's a big issue.
	I say, when I look at it, it's like, okay, well, they can...
	They can drive us into, you know, they can do population control by nuclear weapons or they can do population control by their green agenda.
	Frankly, I'd rather die on my feet than to live on my knees, which is what the green agenda is about.
	That's where I draw the line.
	And that's where my priorities are.
	I would rather have them go into a nuclear war, civil war, world war, whatever it is.
	When it's over, those of us who survive will sort it out and will build the right kind of society.
	If that has to happen.
	But I'm not going to gradually be tricked into, watch the population be goaded and tricked into surrendering everything.
	Not going to be a part of that.
	Four ways that Joe Biden can get America into a nuclear war.
	This is from Michael Snyder.
	He says, have you ever looked at Joe Biden and wondered if this guy is going to get us all killed?
	Yeah, absolutely.
	And of course, he's talking about different conflicts that Biden has created.
	He's going to get us all killed or he's going to get us all enslaved or we own nothing.
	And so yesterday we had an alleged drone attack at the Kremlin.
	Russia says this was to assassinate Putin.
	It was an attempt. Moscow says, however, that Putin was not at the Kremlin at the time of the attack.
	Ukraine denies involvement.
	Well, it is kind of interesting to see, you know, which one of these two is trying to escalate it.
	But that's the bottom line. Whether this is a real attack or whether this is a false flag attack, the bottom line is that they want it escalated.
	And I think both sides want it escalated, frankly.
	It could be either one of them.
	You know, NATO wants it escalated.
	Russia wants it escalated.
	Ukraine does as well.
	According to Russian news agency tests, the Kremlin was targeted early Wednesday morning by two drones.
	They were taken down and destroyed by, quote, electronic warfare systems.
	No casualties reported, and Kremlin's spokesperson, Dmitry Peskov, said Putin was elsewhere at the time of the attack.
	So there we go. Is it a false flag?
	Well, nobody died. We're Steve Pachenik when we need him, right?
	Nobody died. It's a false flag.
	I don't know about that.
	But again, we'll take a look at the back and forth.
	And some interesting things have been happening with this.
	It has some interesting implications for what's going to happen next.
	Ukrainian officials denied any role in the attack.
	I can repeat this message.
	Quote, I think it will be clear to everyone.
	We don't attack Putin or Moscow.
	We fight on our own territory.
	We defend our cities and villages, said Zelenskyy.
	The Pentagon documents, allegedly leaked by Jack Texera, showed that the U.S. was concerned about Ukraine planning attacks in Moscow, and that Zelensky might not have control over his intelligence services.
	So we're trying to make Ukraine just like we do the United States, where the president doesn't have any control over what the CIA does, or the military-industrial complex.
	I mean, why wouldn't we recreate that in Ukraine?
	It was a U.S. coup that put him in place in the first place.
	This guy is a TV actor.
	Who would think that he's got any control over anything?
	He's just playing a role for you, wearing his T-shirt everywhere.
	Look, I'm in military fatigues.
	Well, I'm getting kind of fatigued about his fatigue outfit there.
	One leak. Show the Ukraine's security service, the SBU, determined that its agents violated orders by attacking a Russian surveillance plane in Belarus.
	Another leak. These are two other documents from the Pentagon.
	By the way, they are saying that some of his superiors are going to be facing issues as well.
	We'll see if that happens or not.
	Another leak revealed that Ukraine postponed planned attacks in Moscow that would have coincided with the one-year attack of Russia's invasion.
	By the way, you heard me say the Ukraine.
	We were talking about this back in 2014.
	That was a real sticking point with them.
	If you say the Ukraine, which is what traditionally we had talked about, Ukraine, that's a view of Ukraine as a region of Russia, the Ukraine.
	If you take out the, then it is seen as an independent nation.
	Kind of like the United States is, and the United States are.
	Or rather, you know, When you look at it as the way that was referred to, the United States are.
	That's like a single entity.
	And that's not the way that it was used before the Civil War.
	They saw it as a collection of sovereign states.
	Anyway, just as an aside, drone attacks, shelling, sabotage operations have been escalating.
	Of course, we've had two—I didn't get to this the last couple of days.
	I didn't get to the war stuff before this happened.
	But there have been two sequential days when there has been railroad sabotage inside of Russia.
	It's one of the reasons why we're talking about security on railroads about a month or so ago with Goat Tree.
	Our railroads are in the kind of state in terms of cybersecurity, in terms of infrastructure and things like that, that they could do this type of thing to us.
	Perhaps they are. Who knows?
	This might be disgruntled employees.
	But a foreign power could easily conduct infrastructure attacks against railroads And have plausible deniability because of our lax cyber security, because of our infrastructure that's being ignored for the most part.
	But that type of thing is coming.
	And there is, in the wake of all this now, with this next wave of escalation, you have people in the U.S. military who are saying, you know, the Russians could attack undersea pipelines and stuff like that.
	We better start watching them now.
	That's kind of an interesting thing to say, isn't it?
	After saying that they were the ones who blew up the Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines, and they're saying, you know, they might do something like that.
	That's kind of an admission that they didn't do it.
	That was a lie that we did it.
	So, anyway. The Ukrainian oligarch, however, has offered cash in the past, just before this happened, He was offering cash for anybody that was willing to fly a drone into Moscow.
	Now, you know, they refer to him as an Ukrainian oligarch.
	He is a very, very corrupt connected banker in Ukraine.
	There was Bill Gates who said Ukraine is one of the most corrupt nations on earth.
	And guess what?
	With all the money that's flowing in there from the United States, The most corrupt of the most corrupt would be the bankers inside there, which is a guy like this.
	He offered a half-million-dollar bounty, a little bit more than that, $549,000.
	To any weapons maker able to land a drone in Red Square during Moscow's upcoming Victory Day parade.
	Ukrainian banking baron Vladimir Yatsinkov on April the 23rd.
	You had a Ukrainian drone that was laden with 30 Canadian-made C-4 explosive blocks.
	It crashed near an industrial park in Moscow.
	Ukraine-based operators...
	Deployed in a failed bid to assassinate Putin, who was scheduled to visit that area that day.
	It ultimately failed to hit its target, crashing roughly 12 miles from its intended destination.
	So they kind of missed it by time and by 12 miles.
	Earlier this week, though, the banker Yatsinko, Offered $549,000 to anybody who would commit drone terror in Russia's Red Square ahead of the country's Victory Day Parade, wrote Jackson Hinkle on Twitter.
	The Ukrainian U-22 drones flight originated in the country's Kharkov region.
	Romanenko, co-founder of a think tank with close ties to Kiev's intelligence services, credited Ukraine's secret service, the SBU, with orchestrating the assassination attempt.
	Romanenko wrote on Twitter, he said, last week our intelligence officers received information about Putin's trip to the industrial park.
	Accordingly, ours launched a kamikaze drone which flew through all the air defenses of the Russian Federation and fell not far from the industrial park.
	Well, 12 miles. Putin, we're getting closer, he said.
	So they're admitting it.
	They're bragging about it.
	The failed attempt on Putin's life came amidst a wave of drone incursions into Russian airspace in recent months.
	A day after the unsuccessful April 23rd offensive, the Russian outlet shot recorded 10 drone attacks in the Belgorod border region, some of which included French fragmentation grenades and American-made switchblade drones.
	The uptick in drone attacks inside Russian territory followed Kiev's July 2022 launch of an army of drones campaign.
	So, yes, we are getting closer.
	We're getting closer to a much bigger war.
	Accused Iranian embezzler was the way he's referred to in another article.
	This Vladimir Yat-Sinko, again, his cash prize, $549,000.
	Why does he pick this parade that's coming up on May 9th?
	Well, Victory Day Parade in Russia.
	You know, we all look at the May Day parades where they would show, the communists would show their Military might and everything, but they traditionally had a Victory Day parade on May 9th in Russia to celebrate their victory over the Nazis in World War II. And so that was the date that the Nazis surrendered to the Red Army in 1945.
	And so they parade troops and hardware, and they have a lot of people there because they've got music, and it's a parade type of thing.
	They've canceled it for this April.
	They canceled it this year in April, I should say.
	And what this guy, this banker, is saying is that he wants the drone there.
	He wants it on Victory Day.
	And he wants it inscribed with the slogan that the Nazis used.
	Yeah? They identify with Nazis in Ukraine.
	It's just... Everybody says, oh no, that's not true.
	Yes, it is.
	It is true. And so they want to tweak the Russians and say, here we are, you know.
	The Nazis are back and we're going to win again.
	The Guardian talked about this on May 2nd.
	They downplayed the threats of Ukrainian terrorist violence in Russia.
	They said a Ukrainian drone attack in Red Square during Victory Day military parade would be humiliating for Putin.
	And so they said, but he's...
	It's not really what's going to happen.
	He's canceling this because he's got a paranoid obsession that citizens are going to hijack the rallies to make statements about the current war.
	And we do know that there's an anti-war faction there as well.
	Reasonable people in any country don't want a war.
	And so there is an anti-war faction in Russia.
	So if you stop and think about it, If you wanted to have the motivation for a false flag attack, it would be to steal resolve of people, to shut down any internal opposition.
	It would also give them an opportunity to escalate, which is what they want to do, before there is any more accumulation of military equipment in Ukraine and training of how to use that.
	So, you know, they do have a motivation to do it as a false flag.
	But, of course, there's plenty of evidence that Ukrainians want to do this type of thing as well.
	Openly rewarding freelance terrorists to do this type of thing.
	As I said before, though, it doesn't really matter which it is, because the net result is going to be escalation.
	The Guardian neglected to mention that Ukraine's Army of Drones campaign or that Yatsinko is offering a cash prize.
	They said, no, this is simply because Putin is worried that everybody's going to push back against him.
	That's the kind of propaganda that we have now.
	Because we have the media pushing the war.
	Looking at this. I've always, you go back and you look at what the press was doing to get us involved in World War I and that type of thing.
	It's pretty amazing.
	And other wars as well.
	You know, just tell me where you want the war and I'll give it to you.
	Right? Said William Randolph first.
	I think he was the one who said that.
	But yeah, he was a part of that.
	Media was used to push the public into these wars.
	But, you know, it has become, it's just as shameless, it's just as mindless as it ever was during the time of Woodrow Wilson, and yet they have far more effective capability in terms of, you know, video and other things like that to get to people on a real visceral level.
	You know, you stop and think about it, William Randolph Hearst and these other people pushing us into the war in the early 20th century, all they had was a printed word.
	Now, these people can use video, they can use, you know, We're good to go.
	Yatsinko revealed that his own weapons company is already warming up for the event.
	Anyway, while announcing his competition for a drone attack on Moscow on May 9th Victory Day Parade, Yatsinko declared that the winning aircraft must not only land in Red Square but be recognizable as Ukrainian, and it must have Ukrainian slogans like, Glory to Ukraine!
	Which was the Nazi slogan that the Ukrainian Nazis fought Russia under in World War II. Soviet victory in World War II, known as the Great Patriotic War in Russia, remains a source of national pride and country to this day.
	The Western-backed government in Kiev, meanwhile, has incorporated neo-Nazi battalions into its military, venerated Ukraine's World War II-era Nazi collaborators with official state honors.
	Well, you know, this is why I say it is a big propaganda issue for both sides.
	And as Gerald Slenty said at the very beginning of this, you really think you're going to beat Russia in a war of attrition?
	Look at what they went through in World War II. And then before that, what they went through with Napoleon.
	And suffered through.
	But World War II is more relevant.
	That is still really in the living memory of people.
	And so, bottom line, if they want to get a drone attack done right, this Yatsinko guy needs to contact the people who pulled off the Pentagon attack on 9-11.
	They were good, right?
	They had a lot of, you know, help.
	In terms of shutting down any video of that, and, you know, one of the most surveilled areas in the world, absolutely no video of that.
	I played for you the statement from the reporter there who was, I forget, it was ABC or NBC. He said, there's absolutely no evidence of a plane having hit here, right?
	And they shut that thing down.
	So they only aired that once, but we will air that multiple times.
	Anyway, Moscow residents said they heard two explosions behind the Kremlin wall shortly after 2 a.m.
	local time, after which the lights went out.
	You could see smoke filling the sky above the Kremlin.
	There's some video clips of it, but I'm not going to bother showing that to you.
	The Kremlin officials' version of the events, though, left a lot of unanswered questions.
	Witnesses say two separate explosions occurred more than 10 minutes apart.
	12 minutes, actually. Meaning federal protection units guarding the Kremlin either did not react to the first blast or they're exceptionally bad at their job.
	Could be both. A Moscow resident interviewed by the independent outlet said that he heard the first blast about 2.30 a.m.
	The second one happened at 2.42 a.m.
	And there's also footage on Telegram that shows that as well.
	An unnamed worker inside the Kremlin said there was no sense of panic or heightened security as the workday began the next day, Wednesday.
	The Alexander Garden was not blocked off.
	Cars were parked in the lot, as usual, said the worker.
	Many Russian lawmakers, however, seized on the news to re-up the demand.
	They said terrorists have settled in Kiev, and as you know, negotiations with them are meaningless.
	They need only to be destroyed, quickly, mercilessly.
	It's time to launch a missile attack on Zelensky's residence in Kiev.
	Kremlin propagandists also burst into hysterics.
	Maybe now it will start for real, said one on Telegram.
	And maybe that is what they want.
	So, either way, this will be used as escalation.
	And as I said, Russia has a couple of different possibilities that they can run with this that would help them.
	Number one is to steal the resolve of the people.
	Especially tying it in with this victory day.
	And then also to give them a justification for escalation.
	Because they need to escalate it from a military standpoint before Ukraine consolidates and trains.
	Russia has called for Zelensky to be killed, threatens a nuclear response.
	Is that something that they will do?
	I don't think that they will go that far, frankly.
	Not at this point.
	However, as I said before, it is interesting to see that NATO is warning that Russia could target undersea pipelines and cables.
	They didn't say they could do it again.
	They would do it again. They've done it once.
	They'll do it again. No, they said, you know, we need to probably start taking a look at these things in Norway and other places, you know, where that was.
	Because they might do this now.
	Might do it now. And we know who did it the first time.
	We know it was the U.S. Because it made absolutely no sense.
	There was no benefit to Russia to do it, number one.
	Number two, Ukraine didn't have the technology.
	And again, Seymour Hersh had some interviews.
	It's not exactly, I would say, receipts, but I think he's a trustworthy journalist.
	But it was, you could, you know, it was pretty obvious to me from the very beginning who was behind it, just from motivations and opportunities and that type of thing.
	There is a significant risk that Russia could target critical infrastructure in Europe or North America, including gas pipelines and Internet cables, as part of its confrontation with the West over Ukraine, said a senior NATO intelligence officer, David Kattler, NATO's Assistant Secretary General for Intelligence and Security, told reporters that Russia was actively mapping the infrastructure of Ukraine's allies both on land and on the seabed.
	He said Putin could deploy this surveillance and attacks.
	He said we could see a significant risk that critical infrastructure in Europe and potentially North America could be targeted by Russia as part of its war on Ukraine.
	So now our infrastructure is facing a threat from both Putin and Biden.
	Because Biden has been shutting down our dollar reserve.
	He's been shutting down our power supplies.
	He's been regulating everything out of existence.
	We have economic sanctions against us.
	Economic sanctions against Russia harmed Americans and Europeans more than it did Russia.
	Europeans the most. And he's got sanctions against us as well as part of his green agenda.
	It's going to be really painful, but we've just got to put people through this.
	So, what else is Putin going to do?
	He might accelerate it.
	NATO countries have stepped up naval patrols in response to increased threat.
	So you mean they didn't step up the patrols when Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 were blown up?
	No. No.
	They knew that it wasn't the Russians.
	Norway, which was involved in this, replaced Russia as Europe's single biggest gas supplier last year.
	Oh, wow.
	See, they've got a motivation to shut down those pipelines as well, don't they?
	And they were, you know, part of that operation, if it happened as Seymour Hersh, people that he interviewed said happened.
	Norway has said that it is closely tracking Russian activity in its waters, which is its home to dozens of gas and oil pipelines that are vital to Europe's energy supply.
	They never thought about doing that before, but now they're starting to think about it.
	And when we talk about which of these people, as I said at the beginning, before I started about this, I said, you know, RFK Jr.
	is really the only person who seems to have an understanding of what's going on here.
	The only one who says that he wants to stop this and has a plausible case for it.
	This is what he had to say.
	He said, the problem is, you know, that we lied about what we were going to do.
	And we crossed over some very bright red lines that Putin had said.
	He said, we should have listened to Putin over many years.
	We made a commitment to Russia, to Gorbachev, that we would not move NATO one inch to the east.
	And then we went in and we lied, he said.
	What is the purpose of NATO other than to oppose Russia?
	If you're addressing Russia in a hostile way from the beginning, of course, their reaction is going to be hostile back.
	He said what happened in Kiev in 2014 was essentially a coup d'etat.
	He recalled the infamous phone call in which Victoria Nuland said she was, quote, handpicking a new cabinet, quote-unquote, that was going to be hostile to Moscow.
	He said if Mexico did that and then started killing, if they'd killed 14,000 Russians in Donbass, the Ukrainian government did, if Mexico did that to expatriate Americans, We would invade in a second, he said.
	Putin repeatedly told us, these are red lines that you are crossing.
	He said American leaders need to put themselves in the other guy's shoes.
	But they don't. Because in America, American leadership thinks we are exceptional.
	The rules don't apply to us.
	We're so powerful we can do anything we want.
	Or perhaps what they want is a nuclear war.
	Kennedy condemned the barbaric and illegal invasion, that's the way he put it, of Ukraine, and he called Putin a gangster, a thug, a bully, but he said the conflict needed to be settled quickly because the U.S. had already, quote, sacrificed 300,000 Ukrainians in battle.
	While the White House presented aiding Kiev as a humanitarian mission, RFKJ He said, every step that we've taken has been to enlarge the conflict and to maximize bloodshed.
	Let's be honest, he said.
	It's a war against Russia to essentially sacrifice the flower of Ukrainian youth in an abattoir of death and destruction for the geopolitical ambition of the neocons.
	That's exactly what it is.
	He understands how it started.
	He understands why this is happening.
	He knows what is happening.
	Nobody else has spoken with that kind of clarity to this.
	This is why I really hate the fact that they are going to shut him down and shut him out of debates.
	We're not going to have any substantial debates of anything.
	Why? Because our elections have now reached another stage of puppetry where the issues are not even discussed.
	And, of course, that has always been the case.
	Typically, the vital issues of the day are avoided, and they don't ask any questions about that at all.
	This time, there will be no questions.
	Can you imagine? How could you possibly have a debate between Trump and Biden?
	Biden doesn't even know where he is.
	And Trump doesn't know what year this is or what's happening.
	He's absolutely cut off and unresponsive to any of the existential threats.
	And it's not necessary for either of these guys to debate the issues because once they get there, they'll be told what to do.
	And it doesn't matter what they say in the election, right?
	It's all just about winning.
	And if they can win in this beauty contest...
	The real government, whichever one is there, the real government is not going to change.
	The CIA and the rest of these people will tell them what to do.
	So, he said the people who created this problem are not capable of settling it.
	I'll just say one more thing before we leave the war stuff here.
	Depleted uranium. You've got courts across Europe have ruled that depleted uranium can cause cancer amongst troops, but the British army is insisting that it is safe to supply Ukraine with a toxic tank shells.
	There's a couple of different aspects of this.
	Number one, I remember when this happened, going back to the Gulf Wars, I had a friend of mine who went into the military, he was in tanks, and when this stuff came out, first, you know, he was telling me how effective it was, you know, because this depleted uranium is so incredibly dense.
	It just goes through anything.
	It goes through tanks. Tanks are like butter, you know, that stuff.
	And he told me the story about how they, you know, saw this Russian tank that was being run by the Rockies on the other side of a sand dune.
	And it was like shooting fish in a barrel because they had so much more range than these old Russian tanks did.
	And so they could shoot them before they could shoot back.
	And he said this guy was hiding behind a sand dune and they shot through the sand dune and blew the tank up.
	But then, I guess it was about 10, 15 years ago, I started hearing about how American troops had been firing depleted uranium or having a high occurrence of particular types of cancer.
	And that got my attention because of my friend who was in the military.
	But there's another aspect of this.
	That's now been pretty well documented and agreed upon throughout Europe, and yet we're going to put them there in Ukraine.
	There's another aspect of this as well.
	They're not just a threat to the soldiers who fire them, but the depleted uranium goes out and it blows up, and it poisons the land that's there.
	Iraq is a toxic waste dump, and that's another source of cancer, birth defects for the children, for U.S. troops, but also for the people that are living there now, where that happened.
	Are we going to go in to one of the most fertile areas of Europe, the Ukraine, the breadbasket of the Soviet Union and all the rest of the stuff?
	Very big in terms of food production.
	As we saw this, the sanctions and the war beginning is having implications for food production worldwide.
	So are we going to go in there now and are we going to spread depleted uranium all over that area to poison food?
	Yeah. Yeah, that is what we are going to do.
	They have absolutely no problem doing that.
	We'll be right back. Analyzing
	The Globalist Next Moon.
	And now, The David Knight Show.
	The David Knight Show.
	Don't know much about history.
	Don't know much biology.
	Oh yeah, that describes our students today, doesn't it?
	Don't know much about the French I took.
	Yeah. But I do know that I love you.
	Well, I don't know if they love you.
	They love themselves. They don't know much about history.
	They don't know much about biology.
	Don't know much about that science.
	You know, you got Fauci. You don't need to know what science is.
	He's science.
	Biology? We'll tell you to forget biology.
	And when it comes to history...
	Eighth graders don't know much about history.
	Test scores show, says the Wall Street Journal, that eighth grade test scores in U.S. history and civics fell to the lowest level on record last year, according to the Department of Education.
	They must be so proud.
	It was all about the deliberate dumbing down of Americans, right?
	That's what the Department of Education was all about.
	That was its purpose. And so, their report card.
	It is inversely proportional to the report cards of the children.
	Because as the children's scores go down, their score goes up.
	They're achieving their purpose.
	Only 13% of 8th graders met proficiency standards for U.S. history.
	Meaning that they could explain major themes, periods, events, people, ideas, and turning points in the country's history.
	About a fifth of the students scored at or above proficient level in civics.
	What they know, quote-unquote, The 13%.
	They would know nothing if they weren't misinformed.
	They'd be totally uninformed if they weren't misinformed.
	You think that these students going through the school today with critical race theory and 1619 project, do you think that the ones who regurgitated back to them what they wanted them to take away, do you think they know history?
	No. I guarantee you they don't know.
	They haven't read the original sources.
	They read these propagandized textbooks.
	I mean, it was that way when I was in school.
	And it's a lot more propagandized now.
	Now, if they know anything, it's wrong.
	That's the sad situation that we're in right now.
	It's kind of the same way with biology and science as well.
	If they know anything is wrong, they learn science because Fauci said so, right?
	That's the way they learn their history as well and their biology.
	So we have Senator Marsha Blackburn.
	Is now talking about a bipartisan tech bill to crack down on big tech's danger to children.
	I'm not so sure this is a good thing.
	But, you know, she was the one who asked that very great question to the Supreme Court nominee.
	And, you know, Brown Jackson asked her, what is a woman?
	Well, don't know much about biology or science.
	I can't answer that.
	So, when we look at what is happening with all the LGBT stuff, I think we need another question.
	And the question would be, what is a minor?
	When these people, and you see it all the time, I see it with the mainstream media, I see it, of course, you know, Drudge Report picks up all these mainstream media things, and it's all this stuff, as I've said many times, they go to the LGBT adults community, And they say, oh, we're worried they're going to put us in prison or they're going to shut down our event or this or that.
	And it's like, no... Tell them, shut up and say, what is a minor?
	Do you understand what a minor is?
	Because that's what we're talking about.
	I don't really care what you do.
	It's not even my business.
	It's not the government's business.
	I mean, I would tell you just out of compassion and to warn you about what's coming, knowing that you're going to answer to God one day, number one.
	Number two, it's a better life if you don't engage in these practices.
	I would tell you that out of love, but I don't expect that you're going to listen to it, unless God opens your heart to that.
	But it's about what a minor is.
	Do you understand what a minor is?
	We're not trying to shut down your gay rodeos.
	Or your pride parades are just saying that you can't do simulated striptease or real striptease in front of children.
	That you can't train children to do striptease and lap dances and things like that.
	What is a minor?
	And then the other part of this that maybe the conservatives need to take a look at is what is a parent?
	Because they don't seem to understand what a parent is.
	When I look at this bill from Marsha Blackburn, she does make the case that we have a responsibility to protect children.
	Yes. But what does that entail?
	I think it's perfectly appropriate to say that we're going to prohibit sexual mutilation, that we're going to prohibit sterilization of children with chemicals, with surgery, and all the rest of the stuff.
	I think that is a legitimate function of government.
	They should protect the kids that way.
	It gets a little bit more...
	Uncertain when you start talking about intervening on the internet.
	Because we all know that a lot of this stuff is going to be done.
	A lot of the people who are demanding that we have IDs for kids and stuff like that are allowing or setting by while these same types of resources are pushed to kids in school.
	I know whenever they try to stop the pornography in school, these other people start screaming about banning books and that type of thing.
	Well, pornography for children has always been banned and should be.
	And so that's another place where the government should be involved.
	So what does it mean to get online and to try to do that?
	In one sense, I think that is, in the most important sense, that is the parent's responsibility.
	Because if the parents aren't on board with that, Then they'll just help the kids get around that.
	And when you look at the types of devices that are being put in there, it's kind of an open invitation for the government to start controlling the internet.
	I think the real issue is what is apparent, and so many people think that the kids belong to them.
	It takes a village mentality.
	Really is rampant.
	This is a viral video that I wanted to play for you a couple of days ago.
	You may have seen it at this point in time, but it is absolutely amazing to listen to this.
	This is a British guy and a neighbor who is this busybody all upset about the fact that his two-year-old girl, I think she is, is wearing pink.
	He says she likes pink.
	And she's a girl. You shouldn't be just confining her to this and starts lecturing the father about this.
	I mean, he's one step away from being reported to the police.
	And that is what is coming.
	Hey, so you've come to my house to complain about my baby wearing pink.
	I was just asking, really, why you keep putting her in pink and not other colors?
	Well, traditionally, girls often wear pink.
	Well, I think you'll find that was back in the day.
	I don't think it's today. I think you can wear any colour you want now.
	Well, no, you can. This is like a Monty Python satire, is it?
	Her favourite colour is pink. Well, I've only ever seen her in pink, and I think that's not allowing her to have freedom of what gender she wants to be.
	What do you mean, freedom? Freedom? Well, she should be that.
	She's a baby. She's not a baby.
	She's a baby. She's two. She looks a lot older than that to me.
	But anyway... Well, hold on a minute.
	What's any of your concern?
	Yeah, what's your business?
	I believe that the world has got better since we've got all this fluidity with genders and the different types of genders now.
	And I think by dressing someone in pink, if she doesn't want to be a girl when she's older, if she wants to be a transgender or whatever, then she'll have been dressed in pink and you would have confused her.
	So I think it's nice... You would have confused her.
	...in all different colours.
	I mean, she'd look beautifully in yellow, wouldn't she?
	Let's be honest. Well, yes, you're in yellow now.
	Hey, baby. Oh, here she is. I hadn't seen, sorry.
	She's got pink trousers on.
	With rainbows on.
	Now, I do like the rainbow.
	I definitely like the rainbows on her trousers.
	Now, that's good. Okay. Firstly, you're wearing pink glasses, okay?
	I think you'll find these are mauve.
	Are you colourblind? What colour are these, young lady?
	Yeah, she says pink. But they're not pink.
	They are mauve. Mauve.
	Mauve glasses. Okay.
	And, actually, they're blue inside.
	So, a little bit of pink, mauve, and blue.
	I've got all the colours, you see.
	Much healthier. Much healthier for the brain, the mindset.
	Sorry. I'm just a little bit baffled to, like, why you're actually here.
	I'm just asking why you keep dressing and going in pink.
	I think you should give her more choices of colour.
	Yeah, yeah. Okay, yeah. But...
	However I want to dress her okay, yeah?
	The way how I parent her is nothing to do with you.
	Well, it is to do with me, because I feel for people these days, and I think they should have more choices of what colours they want to wear, what they want to be.
	But she's two. She's two. Well, I don't think it matters.
	I don't need to teach her about all this.
	She... What is right...
	No, as I'm like, what is traditional is she's a girl, I'm a...
	Yeah.
	That's where we are, isn't it?
	These people are so detached from reality.
	Well, you're wearing pink glasses. They're not pink.
	They're mauve. This parrot is not dead.
	See? Whatever.
	I mean, but, you know, everybody wants to take control of the kids.
	You know, Biden says there's no such thing as a child that belongs just to the parents or whatever.
	They belong to everybody.
	All the children belong to everybody.
	That's what it looks like when all the children belong to everybody.
	You've got busybodies.
	They're telling the kids how to do it.
	It's one of the reasons why God only gave kids to parents.
	Even sometimes they don't agree.
	It aims to protect children's privacy and to protect them from addictive and dangerous behaviors.
	We have to be careful that conservatives don't create a nanny state.
	Because that lady was the personification of the nanny state.
	And we have to understand that this whole idea of it takes a village to raise a children.
	Can express itself through conservative principles.
	We might look at this and say, well, yes, let's do this because the government needs to protect these kids.
	And this is something that we agree with at this point in time.
	But you understand then we've established a precedent.
	We've established a method.
	And you know how these institutions get taken over at the top by progressives, by Marxists, by people who are like that woman.
	Do you really want to set up a government program, a law, an institution?
	Our schools are done that way.
	The schools were set up to inculcate the values that conservatives wanted in children.
	But now the schools have been taken over by the progressive left and they're inculcating their values.
	And so you should always take a look at this and say, is this the kind of law that I want to have there?
	That I would feel comfortable with liberals in power and having this kind of law?
	The Kids Online Safety Act is a part of Marsha Blackburn's tech platform that she has.
	It would do things like requiring social media platforms to provide minors with options to protect their information, disable addictive product features, etc.
	It would give parents more controls to spot harmful behavior.
	Well, you know, maybe we should pay attention to what Steve Jobs said.
	He said, I don't let my kids play with the iPad or an iPhone.
	I don't let them have that.
	You know, they don't get that until they're just about out of school.
	I don't want that rewiring their brain.
	I don't want them having access to all this information.
	Maybe we should listen to the guy who created it.
	Maybe we should listen to God who created us about how to raise children instead of looking for saviors in Washington who are going to raise and protect our children, even if what Marsha Blackburn is doing here is something that I would support, for example, to create a duty for tech platforms to prevent and mitigate dangerous behaviors, including the promotion of suicide, eating disorders, substance abuse, sexual exploitation.
	Again, do we want to have a nanny state or do we want to have parents?
	What is a minor and what is a parent?
	We need to have those basic discussions.
	Because we no longer know what a parent is.
	We don't know what a minor is any more than we know what a woman is.
	And that includes conservatives.
	So, Marshall Blackburn says there are things that children should not be exposed to until a certain point in life.
	I agree. They can't drive until they're 16.
	We don't allow them in the physical world to be exposed to pornography.
	We don't allow some companies to market cigarettes, alcohol, tobacco, things of that nature to children.
	And for them to be barraged with this type of behavior and information online without parents being able to shut that down is one of the things we've heard about from so many different organizations.
	But you see, there's this glaring moat In the eye of government as they try to pull out the splinters out of other people's eyes.
	And that's the educational system.
	And it's not just online.
	And it's not just education.
	It is also entertainment.
	As Babylon Bee says, parents who raised kids on Disney movies about rebelling against parents are not sure why their kids are rebelling against their parents.
	You want to bring Disney movies?
	You want to raise your kids on Disney movies?
	Even the old Disney movies, right?
	It was always about follow your heart.
	And if that means rebelling against your parents, that's fine.
	Dave Martin says to reporters, I just don't get it.
	Every movie and song she listened to growing up featured positive messages about listening to her heart.
	And now she won't listen to me.
	It's so weird. His conflict with his daughter came to a head last night when she defied her father like Moana, snuck out of the house like Ariel, and got gender confused like Mulan.
	At publishing time, the parents had addressed the situation by making the daughter stay home all weekend and do chores like Cinderella.
	Probably allowed her to watch Proud Family on Disney +, or something like that.
	So there is a lot of peer pressure that is happening in the schools.
	Implementation of LGBT ideology in the public schools.
	This is a piece from LifeSite, an op-ed piece.
	The writer says, when my first book, The Culture War, came out in 2016, less than 5% of the population identified as LGBT. 2016.
	And virtually nobody as transgender, right?
	Students are handed scores of sexual and gender identities that they can choose from now.
	And I would add, even going back into kindergarten with their gender unicorns and their gender-bred man and all the rest of this stuff.
	The only boring and uncelebrated identity being cisgender or heteronormative identity.
	Cisgender, according to these people, somebody that identifies with their actual biology as opposed to trans.
	I have transcended my biology.
	I can now be anything that I want to be.
	And I can follow my heart, follow my imagination, all the rest of this stuff.
	We should not, by the way, even use these terms.
	Refuse to use these terms.
	Just like we should be refusing to use the term red state.
	Because we know that the reds were always communists.
	And as the Democrats became more and more communists, you had a concerted effort by the media to show on Election Day the states in red and blue and to flip the colors on that.
	I've talked about how the environmentalists are really Marxists as well.
	I call them watermelon environmentalists.
	There's a thin veneer of green, but if you look inside, it's all red.
	It's all Marxist.
	About one in four high school students now identify as LGBT. The CDC says the number is 26% in 2021, rising from 11% in 2015.
	It is going up rapidly.
	So they said among high school students, 57% have had no sexual content in their lives.
	34% have had sexual contact with someone of the opposite sex.
	6% have had sexual contact with both sexes.
	And 2.5% sexual contact with the same sex.
	So, when we look at where this is headed...
	How is this being encouraged?
	Well, it's being done by the government.
	This is flowing out through the government, especially through the federal government, as I've said many times.
	Even with referendum after referendum, the definition of marriage always stayed the same, as it has since the beginning of time.
	And with same-sex marriage, they lost even in California, even with all the millions of dollars that Tim Cook, CEO of Apple, put in, and with matching grants from Apple, and all these Silicon Valley companies, Hollywood companies, all the money that they put into that, they still lost in California.
	So they imposed it on us with the Supreme Court.
	Now you've got the Biden State Department offering $500,000 to promote professional development of transgender youth in Pakistan.
	They have a program where they're going to teach English in Pakistan.
	And they said we want to have professional development courses for Pakistani transgender youth as part of that.
	Why? Well, because you need to learn English and you need to learn our sexuality in order to survive on the global stage.
	State Department is geared toward preparing Pakistani youth to, quote, better participate in the global community and to prepare them for success in the workplace.
	You know, if you are cisgender, forget about it.
	You know, we have this diversity.
	I like to put it in the order that spells out D-I-E, DI. Diversity, inclusivity, diversity.
	We have those programs, and if you don't check some of these boxes, you're not going to get a job from the globalist companies or the governments that are out there.
	These are our core values.
	And so we need to start teaching you what the core values are so that you can, you know, become the CEO of Google someday or of IBM. You know, those are both from India.
	This is Pakistan. So, you know, you have to start embracing those values so we can promote you to run our globalist corporations.
	Last month, the National Endowment for the Humanities under Biden awarded $350,000 to a three-year project at the University of Washington to translate homosaurus Like a thesaurus, but it is an LGBT lexicon full of sexual slang.
	So they wanted to translate homosaurus into Spanish.
	That's what our government is doing.
	So that's the state department.
	The education departments are doing this.
	And then the Navy. You've seen this by now.
	Again, this is something I was going to get to a couple of days ago, along with that.
	Your kids belong to us now, lady.
	But I like, I think the best headline I've seen of this is from the Daily Skeptic, Will Jones.
	Is this the U.S. Navy's Dylan Mulvaney moment?
	They thought it was a good idea to have a drag performer do a recruitment video for the Navy.
	My dad is spinning in his grave right now.
	He signed up in his mid-20s after Pearl Harbor was attacked.
	He joined the Navy. This has gone from the Marines looking for a few good men to see if we can find a very, very few men left in the military.
	It's insane. They're purging Christians out with these vaccine mandates.
	They're pushing this transgender stuff.
	And it is being pushed.
	It is a campaign, just like we talked about yesterday.
	This guy who is the chair of this behavioral psychotherapy in the UK, and he wrote a letter.
	To the current Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak, said stop this, what is essentially a PSYOP. He said it is a campaign of fear, shame, and guilt that you're putting on people.
	People cannot consent, legally consent to this stuff.
	You are coercing them through your psychological campaign.
	And they are coercing kids through this psychological campaign as well with the LGBT stuff.
	It is not consent.
	It is not choice.
	It is coercion, fear, shame, guilt, denigrating this one thing as you promote the other.
	You know, just like denigrate the ivermectin or the HCQ will promote the vaccine.
	That's what they're doing. You know, heteronormative stuff.
	You don't want that. That's not cool.
	All the cool kids are pretending that there's something that they're not.
	And so the Navy is doing that.
	The Navy already has 8,000 people short of its recruitment goal.
	Expect it to fall much further with this kind of thing.
	Who wants to join that?
	This is how out of touch the Washington elites are with us.
	And they know that they're out of touch.
	This is a campaign of propaganda.
	They're pushing this on us. They know that we don't want this.
	They're calling this guy a digital ambassador.
	But the Navy says, one tweet, the Navy brought a drag queen.
	Harpy Daniels, who is an active-duty sailor to participate in a pilot program aimed at targeting a wider array of potential recruits through digital platforms.
	China and Russia are laughing, rolling on the floor at the U.S. right now.
	Here's the bigger picture.
	You and I know how these people are thumbing their nose at God.
	And this is something that we can just see it from a pragmatic standpoint.
	That, you know, you're going to recruit people who are mentally ill.
	And we know what's going to happen with that.
	But it's going to be God's judgment over and above any pragmatic stuff.
	As I've talked to...
	Many people about this, and several of them have said, it is really a blessing for those who are kicked out of the military, or who got out of the military, because God is really going to nail this country, especially the military and the government that is pushing this kind of stuff.
	And you don't think that it's insane?
	Look at the next level of this, this trans-abled stuff, as I mentioned at the beginning of the show.
	Trans-abled woman tells Dr.
	Phil she poured cleaning solution in her eyes because she always felt she should be blind.
	This is Dr. Phil, you know, picking up where Jerry Springer left off.
	The degrading of our culture.
	And that is his legacy.
	How would you like for that to be your legacy?
	You know, Jerry Springer's legacy.
	What he did to society and did to people.
	We're going to take a quick break.
	When we come back, I want to talk about where a lot of this stuff started.
	Going back to 2006, a meeting of 28 people.
	Putting together 28 principles that have now been the foundation, the agenda for all this stuff.
	Back in 2006, they released it in 2007.
	And we need to understand where this comes from.
	It is kind of shrouded in secrecy.
	I had to dig a bit to find out who had funded this and who these people were.
	And I still don't have all the answers.
	I still have to do some more investigation of it.
	But we're going to talk about that when we come back.
	You need to understand that these things have not been organic.
	They're not a response to anything.
	This is being pushed on people.
	Pushed from the top down.
	We'll be right back. Decoding
	the mainstream propaganda.
	It's the David Knight Show.
	Well back in 2006...
	You had somebody.
	We don't exactly know who did this.
	There are, you know, on the anniversary of this, the 10th anniversary, you had some organizations.
	There's a German organization that is a climate organization, a green organization.
	And there's a lot of overlap, a lot of connection between the green agenda and the LGBT agenda.
	It truly is amazing how much there is.
	And so on the 10th anniversary, they were going around and talking to some of the people that had been there, and there was a common theme that emerged with these people.
	They did three in-depth interviews with people, and they were all saying, wow, I was really surprised to be invited to this.
	I didn't know what it was.
	It's like, okay, but can we have an interview or any discussion about who it is that organized this thing?
	Who brought this thing together?
	And who paid for it?
	Well, it goes back to the usual suspects, as far as I can tell.
	So I want to take a look at the timeline, the origin, the people who are driving this agenda.
	This happened in Yogyakarta.
	It is a town in Indonesia, and it was at a university at that town that they had it.
	And as these people talk about it, they say, we specifically picked that because we wanted to engage the Southern Hemisphere in this.
	People in Central and South America, people in Africa, people in Asia, they're not buying into this like the Europeans and the North Americans are.
	They're already jumping into this in a big way.
	So we need to go somewhere in that geographical area so we can show that this is something that people in developing countries, what we used to call the third world, are embracing as well.
	So they picked this town in Indonesia.
	And the Yogyakarta principles, on the 10th anniversary of it, in 2016, that was where it was discussed more than anything.
	But if you look at the principles, 28 experts sat in a room in the city of Yogyakarta, came out with a legal document comprising 28 principles.
	Some of those experts are here today.
	And so here's who some of these experts are.
	Because we can't get any information about who organized this meeting, who called this meeting, who paid for it.
	We do know that it was taken to the UN. It's been used as a blueprint for one country after the other.
	And again, I'll give a hat tip to my pastor who drew my attention to this.
	But I wanted to look at who was actually behind this thing.
	Because we know what the principles are.
	I mean, I'm not going to go through this entire document and read it out to you.
	But the bottom line, just to summarize it, their key agenda in 2006, they said, we already had an understanding of sexual orientation.
	And we'd already enacted that into law to protect that, to enforce that.
	And so the purpose of Yogyakarta was to tie in transgender into that.
	And to make gender, to give it the same kind of legal power and protections and so forth that we had done with sexual orientation.
	So the Yogyakarta thing was really about the transgender stuff.
	And when you look at some of these people, the first one they mention is Sonia Carrera.
	Sonia was a sex activist for the UN. In 2002, she was the chair of something called the Sexuality Policy Watch.
	There are references to her extended work with civil society.
	I could not find that she was getting paid directly by Soros, but that is something that would indicate that she was.
	Soros talks about his initiatives as civil society.
	One of the things that the organization that she had, Sexual Policy Watch, says when you look at about Sexual Policy Watch, they began with a quote.
	The quote says, sex is always political.
	Sex is always political, they said.
	Is it, really? And then they went on to elaborate the fact that they are there to push back against the idea that there's any such thing as good and bad.
	They said, that's religious. We're going to push back against that.
	Sex is going to be political.
	It's going to be legal. It's going to be weaponized, is basically what this is about.
	Looking at another individual there, his name is Professor Vidit Montaraborn.
	He is from Thailand.
	He is described as an independent expert by the United Nations.
	A decade after this Yogyakarta thing, he was the independent expert on sex orientation and gender for the United Nations.
	Yeah, they actually have an office of that.
	Why do we have the United Nations?
	Why are we giving the lion's share of the money to an organization that does this kind of stuff and has out in front of its building a twisted pistol, right, where the barrel is tied into a knot?
	I've looked at that thing many times.
	I thought, you know, if you were to...
	As long as that barrel is on that sculpture, that twisted pistol sculpture outside the UN, if you were to untwist that knot and straighten it out, you would have a gun that would be comically longer than the Joker's gun in the first Batman movie.
	But anyway, he was...
	Working for the UN, he had, prior to becoming an independent expert on sex orientation and gender for the UN, he had previously worked for the UN as a special rapporteur on child trafficking.
	Well, how appropriate. Because that's what this is about.
	Anyway, another individual, Sunil Pant.
	He was Nepal's first LGBT organizer.
	He was able to push through same-sex marriage in Nepal in 2008.
	So they brought him in. And then finally, they brought in an individual that we'll talk about a little bit more here in a moment.
	Maro Cabral.
	This is a woman who is, you know, either, I guess, taking a lot of hormones and now has a beard.
	As a matter of fact, there's two of them. Um, one of, she pretty much still looks like a woman.
	She's got a little bit of hair around her chin.
	Uh, the other, uh, woman who has become a man is a professor and he's got like a thick, or she does, has a bearded woman, uh, got a thick, um, uh, Goatee.
	And, you know, is a legal expert.
	It really is surprising.
	She really can pass for a man.
	I don't know what taking that much in terms of hormones does to you, though, as a woman.
	So the first principle is all human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.
	Human beings of all sexual orientations and gender identities are entitled to the full enjoyment of human rights.
	No one denies this.
	Nobody denies this. I mean, you've got some Arab countries where they defenestrate anybody who is homosexual or transgender.
	But that's not the case in the Western countries at all.
	We're just telling them, don't mess with the minors.
	What is a minor?
	Can you understand that?
	I know you can't understand what gender you are.
	I know you don't know that gender and sex are the same thing.
	But can you realize that you're not going to...
	But that's the way they began with this because it is all subtle and it is done by one stage after the other.
	But as I said before, the key thing that they accomplished with this as they were looking back at it at 10 years...
	Was to bring in gender identity as a form of discrimination to be prohibited legally.
	They already had that for sexual orientation.
	They said that was first articulated in international law in 1992.
	As late as 2003, gender identity was wholly absent.
	From the framework of international human rights law, they said.
	So gender identity had to wait until the release of the Yogyakarta principles on the application of international human rights law to sexual orientation and gender identity, which they released in 2007.
	They had their meeting in November of 2006.
	They put out their document in 2007.
	What followed in the wake of this...
	Conjoining of the notions of sexual orientation and gender identity in international law was the historic 2011 resolution sponsored by South Africa and the UN. So you had Marxists in South Africa pushing this in the UN within four years.
	So, again, that is the campaign of coercion, pressure, fear, shame, and doing it to minors is the key thing.
	I mean, even when you have Kristen Beck, who was the Navy SEAL, who that was his name that he was going by as he was pretending that he was a woman, He has now changed his mind.
	That happened to him, a Navy SEAL, as an adult.
	And you had Michael Flynn pushing it on him.
	Michael Flynn pushing that on him.
	General Flynn. And he's furious about that.
	And we have a lot of people who are children.
	Jazz Jennings. His parents or her parents, I don't know what the person's role of gender is.
	Or what they're pretending it is either.
	I don't know which is which. But anyway, Jazz Jennings.
	There's a children's book, I Am Jazz.
	They're using that to push transgenderism on kids.
	And of course, the parents have made a lot of money off of that.
	But now this person is in their early 20s, and it's been about 15 or 16 years since that came out.
	And the thing I'm really struggling with is sounding really suicidal.
	Like that celebrated trans person who was the flight attendant for United committed suicide.
	This is not being given to kids to keep them from committing suicide.
	This is actually increasing the ideation of suicide.
	And when you do chemical, surgical things to children at a very young age, and you confuse them about their gender at a very young age, it has big consequences later on.
	A third principle of this thing was to provide recognition before the law.
	In other words, to compel others to do this.
	The principle has found its way into the domestic legislation of Argentina, Ireland, and Malta, all of which recognize the right to choose one's gender.
	But what does choosing mean if you're going to use these campaigns at a very young age to children of fear, shame, guilt, pressure?
	All the cool kids are doing this.
	You're not a cool kid if you don't do this.
	And by the way, when we talk about Malta, You remember I played for you the clip of the guy who was homosexual.
	He became a Christian, and he has an organization to help people, saying, look, the power to change your life is with Christ.
	And so he did an interview, and they're now trying to put him in jail.
	And he is awaiting the trial right now, because he said that you could change back.
	These people weren't changed, but only in one direction.
	You can imagine to be anything that you want unless you want to imagine that you want to be a Christian or you want to be heterosexual.
	That's not allowed.
	And you better not talk about that to anybody else.
	And that's in Malta. So that's one of the three places that they said they had had a lot of success in with these principles.
	And it's important that we understand How politicized this all is.
	Again, as one of them said, all sex is political.
	This is a political agenda.
	It is being done to control people politically.
	And they don't have people's best interest in heart.
	So there was the Heinrich Bull Stiftung, the Green Political Foundation.
	And they talked to three different people.
	I gave them in-depth interview questions about how did their involvement come in, and I thought it was interesting because they were all kind of surprised.
	They said, you were part of the team of human rights experts who elaborated the Yogyakarta principles in Indonesia in November 2006.
	How did this meeting come about?
	How did the idea to create these principles originate?
	Yes, that is the question.
	Who is behind this agenda?
	He said, well, I was very young at the time, just in my mid-twenties.
	I didn't know anything about this.
	It was only after the process was over that I really understood what it was all about.
	They just wanted a young activist in the room, somebody from Eastern Europe.
	I knew it was going to be a meeting of distinguished experts and activists basically aimed at coming up with a human rights agenda for the LGBT movement in the global south.
	So who was it that, who is they?
	Who picked this guy?
	Well, guess what? Guess where he's working now?
	He's a program officer with Open Society.
	Open Society's Human Rights Initiative.
	Who runs Open Society?
	Soros. Soros.
	The Moriarty of crime.
	Previously, he had been a director for an LGBT organization in Europe.
	He developed and implemented the organization's advocacy and funding strategies in Eastern Europe.
	But he said, I think they invited me because of my experience as a Moldovan activist and because of the role that I played in Europe as a program director.
	He said at the time, the trans movement itself was very small.
	There were internal fights about what would be the right language to describe the work needed to advance transgenderism.
	So George Soros, or somebody, Handpicked this guy.
	He's young. He doesn't know what's going on, really.
	He's been an activist in a country where he's living.
	There was 28 people who put this thing together, signed it.
	They pushed it out, pushed it to the UN, pushed it to different countries with varying levels of success.
	But again, even though it hasn't been enacted into law, it has become a de facto statement that is now being implemented in various ways.
	We've not had...
	Just like the UN Green Agenda, the 2030 Agenda, you know, it was UN Agenda 21.
	Sometime in the 21st century, we're going to take everything from everybody and we're going to lock them up in cities and, you know, we'll keep all the rest of the countryside for us.
	We'll have these giant megacities.
	That's going to happen sometime in the 21st century, Agenda 21.
	Then they got more specific. And they had the UN 2030 agenda.
	By 2030, we're going to have this.
	And then they started talking about the smart cities and the 15-minute cities now and all the rest of this stuff.
	So it gets more and more specific, but the principles remain the same.
	They just don't reveal the timeline or some of the details to you.
	And they do it iteratively. It's done from the inside.
	It's done with chaos. And it's done iteratively, as Patrick said.
	That's the way they do all of these agendas.
	Critics of the Yogyakarta principles have raised the point that while the principles interpret binding international legal standards, the document itself is not legally binding, and there are still very few states that comply with it.
	How do you react to this criticism?
	He says, well, there are some cases where the principles have been ratified or endorsed by parliaments or governments, as one of the other individuals who is a lawyer says.
	It's going to be a gradual process.
	The next person they talk to, Stephen Whittle, They said, you were part of this.
	Could you tell us about the history of this?
	How did this idea come about?
	How were you invited to this?
	He goes, well, it was a complete surprise to me.
	I got an invitation.
	I couldn't believe it because nobody ever asked us anything.
	I was a trans activist, one of the reasons that we set up the separate trans organizations.
	And this is the guy who, I can say he's a guy, he looks like a guy.
	It's a woman, biological woman, who's got the goatee and everything.
	He says he's been an advisor to the UK, to Ireland, Italian, Japanese, and South African governments.
	And, of course, they've had a lot of success in Ireland.
	And he talks about that, the success that they've had in terms of pushing that.
	That's one of the things that's been so amazing to me.
	I talked about the anti-free speech bill being pushed in Ireland and how radical that was.
	And, you know, they have, in the last couple of years, Ireland has really gone off the path.
	And I really do think that it is the, you know, they were very successful by having a low tax rate.
	They brought in a lot of big multinational corporations.
	Those multinational corporations have restructured their government in a way that many people in Ireland don't really understand.
	It was one of the most pro-life countries in the world, predominantly Roman Catholic.
	And now they have pulled back from that.
	They have redefined marriage.
	That's what this guy is talking about, some of his quote-unquote success there.
	They're going against free speech because ultimately this is all about Marxism and it is all about political activity.
	All this sex stuff, sex is political, they said.
	They're using it as a political weapon.
	And it is surprising to me to see that happening in Ireland because, you know, when I look at folk music, and I do that quite a bit, in Ireland, they're different from everywhere else.
	They've got a real strong cultural anchor and foundation.
	It's more often the rule than the exception that you would see very young people performing traditional Celtic music in Ireland.
	Really good musicians and very, very young age.
	They've really passed along the music tradition to their kids, unlike all of the rest of the world, which is pretty much followed in line behind U.S. and Western pop music.
	No, they're towing the line on their traditional stuff, more so than in Scotland even, things like that.
	But in Ireland, they were really rooted, and they had that foundation, and it's being ripped apart now.
	By these big multinational corporations that have come in.
	Same kinds of corporations that we are begging to come in to each of our states and giving them massive state subsidies to build factories and things like that.
	That's the same thing that happened in Ireland.
	And that's how we lose our soul, our culture, our children, all the rest of it.
	So this woman, now it's a guy, says, here in the UK there were a reference point, the Yogyakarta principles, and the battle for same-sex marriage.
	In 2004, when the Gender Recognition Act was drafted, it was insisted that married couples get divorced and on and on.
	He talks about the details of it.
	He says, they said, so were you aware...
	If they are used as a political instrument, he says, yes, I use them all the time, these Yogyakarta principles, that agenda.
	He said, it will never be binding unless it's adopted by an organization like the UN, but he said, look at Ireland.
	The fact that LGBT rights have gotten so far in a state that was previously controlled by the values of the Roman Catholic Church is astonishing, he says.
	You have to look at those issues in their wider framework.
	Obtaining change is a progressive drip, drip, drip.
	Yeah, you do it iteratively.
	That's the right way to do it, he said, because otherwise there would be so much resistance.
	Instead, as we've seen in Ireland in the same-sex marriage referendum, activists found that there was a huge, fertile background support.
	And that only comes because of the history that's been built behind it, of doing this iteratively, bit by bit.
	And so, I won't go any further into this, except that the third person they talked to, although this person did not organize it and doesn't say anything about who organized it or who paid for it, this person,
	Mauro Cabral, who's a woman who now has a chin-strap beard, the idea is to create a tool We're good to go.
	We'll do it at a university.
	University didn't really have anything to do with it.
	We'll do it at a university, so we'll say that this is legitimate.
	It's experts. And so let's say 28 experts with 28 principals.
	Who are these people? A lot of them didn't even know they were going.
	This is very much like the RAND Corporation strategy that they do when they come into a community.
	They'll come in and selling the Agenda 21 before they started calling it the 2030 Agenda.
	They would come in and they would talk to people and they would have people from the community.
	And the RAND Corporation Would tell them certain things and they had plants inside the organization in each of these groups.
	So they'd have people break up in little focus groups and talk about things in their community.
	And they would have people that were already on their side.
	And they would kind of steer the conversation.
	And at the end of it, everybody thought that they had come up with a solution on their own.
	But it was a solution that they had brought to be ratified by people.
	It was behavioral psychology.
	All this stuff is.
	And so anyway, the idea was to link sexual orientation and gender identity and to piggyback this transgender thing on top of what they were already doing with the LGB rights.
	And so the principals try to resemble the language of a UN convention that is focused on state obligations, but the principals also have a secondary audience.
	It was conceived as a tool to advocate for this.
	And so she talks about how Argentina, you know, they mentioned Argentina, Ireland, Malta, how Argentina now has jumped into this.
	They've advanced legislation patterned after this agenda.
	And we see this type of thing happening all the time.
	I've talked many times about how conservative Republicans do it.
	An organization called ALEC, A-L-E-C, the American Legislative Exchange Council.
	They will bring in state representatives and they'll have parties and all the rest of this stuff.
	They will come up with legislation that they would like for them to pass.
	A lot of times it's things like toll roads or something like that.
	It could be something that basic.
	But it still gets these multinational corporations in.
	People make a lot of money. These foreign corporations make a lot of money operating these toll roads.
	And so they'll hand them some legislation.
	They'll say, put the name of the state at the top.
	You sign it at the bottom. Turn in your homework.
	They craft the legislation for them.
	These people are just passing this stuff along.
	And that's the way these people were.
	I don't know who ran this thing.
	I don't know how I was invited.
	But my name is there, and now I've been promoted to run this Soros organization or this UN organization.
	And now that carries the weight of me being an expert, the person who didn't know what any of this stuff was about.
	And Soros and these other people promote them, give them titles, Send them around the world to speak.
	Oh, this person is an expert.
	Oh, they were at the Yogyakarta thing.
	That's the way they do this stuff.
	It's orchestrated by just a few people taking over these institutions, laying out legislative agendas that are then enacted by others.
	We're going to take a quick break. We're going to have Tony join us in about five minutes.
	We'll take a quick break, and we'll be right back.
	We'll be right back. You're
	listening to The David Knight Show.
	The David Knight Show.
	The David Knight Show.
	And if he did, what type of integrity does this show about his character?
	Just curious. I thought it was an odd situation.
	Well, as far as I can tell, we look at the timeline of things, and I know that when he put his...
	Hat in the ring officially.
	He started having these pieces put out about him, attack pieces.
	One of them had happened a few years ago.
	They were talking about how he was invited to Germany to speak and that this group was kind of like a QAnon group in Germany.
	But actually, if you look at the timeline of that, that was in August of 2020.
	There was no jab that had been released at that point.
	And there were, of course, no vaccine passports to travel.
	He went to Germany to speak in opposition to the COVID lockdown and to the mask and other things like that.
	The next big issue about him personally was, that was August of 2020.
	Then in December of 2021, remember, they had the phony approval of the vaccine and the mandates that started about August and September of 2021.
	By December, he and his wife, Cheryl Hines, the actress, had a Christmas party.
	And on the invitation, it says, you need to be vaxxed or tested.
	And so a lot was written about that.
	And his response to it was...
	Well, as in every marriage, we have disagreements about things, and she doesn't always do what I tell her to do.
	She, I think, is probably likely jabbed, working as an actress, and she was very much about towing the line with all that stuff.
	Then, just a month later, in January, as he was going around speaking in the U.S., He had made a statement that said something to the effect that even in World War II, to escape the Nazis, you could go into Switzerland without having to be vaccinated or whatever, you know, when he was talking about the restrictions on travel.
	And then he was attacked because, oh, you can't make any comparisons to the Nazis, the Holocaust, the Jews or anything.
	And he apologized for that, which I didn't think there was anything to apologize for.
	But I think as we look at what is happening with this election, the probably only important thing about the presidential election are the debates to what is going to be said publicly about these issues, because it's going to affect the public in the way that they see things.
	And, of course, he is going to be excluded probably from the debates.
	Can you imagine Biden being excluded?
	Well, Biden doesn't know what's going on, but the people who handle him, can you imagine them being so foolish as to put him in a debate with RFK Jr.?
	That's never going to happen.
	As a matter of fact, I've had this on the deck to play for a couple of days as well.
	This is the way ABC handled their interview with RFK Jr.
	The person was very combative.
	Listen to this. You said in the past that there is a correlation between vaccines leading to autism that's totally been debunked.
	Wait a minute, who debunked it?
	We have not seen any kind of scientific connection from the CDC, the World Health Organization, the National Academy of Sciences.
	But those organizations are captive agencies, Lance.
	And so you think they're all in cahoots?
	Yeah, they're all captive.
	You've discussed the Kennedy family as, like any family, there are disagreements.
	But I think what makes it different here is that several of your relatives have not just said that they disagree with you, but they've called you dangerous.
	And as you're probably well aware, there were two of your siblings and a niece who wrote a Politico article back in 2019.
	He's helped to spread dangerous misinformation over social media and is complicit in sowing distrust of science behind vaccines.
	Total hit piece, right?
	And now we know who was giving the dangerous information, don't we?
	It was Fauci. It was his siblings who were giving false and dangerous information.
	But a total hit piece would not allow him to defend his position.
	Just attack, attack, attack, and edit it out.
	And they even admitted it.
	We should note that during our conversation, Kennedy made false claims about the COVID-19 vaccines.
	Data shows that the COVID-19 vaccines prevented millions of hospitalizations and deaths from the disease.
	No, it doesn't. We also made misleading claims about the relationship between vaccination and autism.
	Research shows that vaccines and the ingredients used for the vaccines do not cause autism, including multiple studies involving more than a million children and major medical associations.
	She's absolutely lying. Completely owned by the pharmaceutical companies.
	Just absolutely amazing.
	Total hit piece, total fabrication, total lies.
	I don't know who that woman is.
	Lindsay something. I've never seen her before in my life.
	Avoid her like the plague.
	She is going to spew out corporate government lies to people.
	And he responded by showing this.
	He said, you know, he highlighted this from Cornell Law School.
	And he said they basically broke the law.
	There are laws about how you handle interviews with candidates for public office.
	And you shall have no power for censorship over the material that is broadcast under the provisions of this section.
	So if you're a broadcasting station and you have a license, you know, we're going to say that you have to give equal access and you cannot censor somebody's stuff.
	It'll be interesting to see if he pursues this.
	He should. We're going to take a quick break, and Tony is waiting on the line, and we've got a lot to talk about that has happened economically.
	Stay with us.
	We will be right back.
	We will be right back.
	We will be right back.
	All right, welcome back, and joining us now is Tony Arterman of WiseWolf.Gold, and Tony has been kind enough to set up DavidKnight.Gold, which will also take you there and let him know that you're coming from me.
	But a great supporter of the show, and whenever I have to go somewhere, we turn to Tony to do the show as a guest host.
	I absolutely trust him with the show, and I trust him with everything else.
	It's great to have you, Tony.
	Thanks for coming on. Good to see you, David.
	Well, it's been a busy couple of days, hasn't it?
	We've had yet another bank go under, First Republic Bank, and they're picking over the bones.
	as they're picking over the bones of that we got another uh bank that they're now talking about being unstable and in the face of all of this the response of uh powell the federal reserve is to continue raising rates as you were talking about last last week when we spoke uh he made it pretty clear in his remarks to that fake zelinski is a couple of russian uh jokesters who called him up and pretended they were zelinski and he made it pretty clear in that that he really didn't care about the economy he didn't care about recession he
	He's going to protect the dollar from going into hyperinflation, so he's going to keep raising the rates no matter what it does to the rest of us, isn't he?
	He's been pretty clear about that.
	He said months ago, we don't think that we'll cause a recession, and we don't think that we'll have to.
	So again, they've always got that on the table.
	They know the power that they wield.
	As a matter of fact, I looked at the headlines on Drudge.
	You talked about the banking crisis.
	It says more than half of Americans fear for their deposits.
	Well, we're halfway there.
	All Americans should fear for their deposits in this current banking system.
	And, you know, you've got the too big to fail banks are going to gobble up a lot of these regional banks.
	And that's not good.
	That's not good for our financial system.
	It's not good for our economy.
	But it's coming. A lot of these unsound investments and the amount of trillions that were pumped into the economy during COVID-1984, that's Those chickens are coming home to roost, David.
	It's not going to be pretty. Oh, yeah.
	Absolutely. We have, again, as we look at the different banks that are circling the drain, banking stocks are plummeting for the smaller regional banks.
	What is happening to gold?
	Gold went up the last couple of days.
	What is it doing today in response to this?
	It's continuing to try to reach its all-time high.
	I mean, it's around 2067, I believe, is the all-time high for gold, $2067.
	We broke 2050 and some change yesterday, and I think we're going to see that soon.
	I mean, I'm not giving a prediction for investment advice or anything.
	I think that it's pretty clear.
	I mean, if you look at the timeline of what gold has done, David, the first time gold ever broke $1,000 was in 2008.
	By 2011, that had reached 1,900, almost 2,000.
	That was the all-time high for a while.
	The Federal Reserve was able to come in at that time and say, look, it was Ben Bernanke.
	He said, we understand, you know, we had to bail out these banks and TARP funds and everything else.
	We understand that people are very concerned that there's going to be inflation and the devaluation.
	So we're not going to do that again.
	We promise. So the markets cooled off.
	People went back into the regular sector of stocks and bonds and mutual funds and all that.
	And that lasted for, well, until this current era, you know, 2020, I was hosting your show, filling in for you, down in Austin, and that was August, and that's when it broke its all-time high.
	We haven't reached, we got close to reaching that again in 2022 in March after the invasion of Ukraine by Russia.
	But I think with everything going on, the banking sector, crypto, regulations, CBDC, the central bank activity really is what I think is driving the price of gold.
	The big factor there is central banks around the world hoarding gold, breaking all-time records, getting ready for the great devaluation that I believe is coming.
	What do you want to call it?
	A great reset. That's on the horizon.
	The central banks know that.
	So I think that's what's driving the price, really.
	It's funny, there's a headline on Kitco.
	See, the European Central Bank did the same thing.
	They did the 25 basis points, just like Powell.
	And they've been saying the same thing for a while, that they can't allow inflation.
	I mean, it's funny.
	The Central Bank of the United States and the European Central Bank, I mean, they're the same thing.
	I mean, these are run by the same entities, same families, same multinational banking consortium.
	So they've got the same philosophy.
	So again, the headline on Kitco for that was that it was largely ignored by gold.
	So I think gold is really taking on a life of its own because of the devaluation of fiat currency.
	Yeah, that's true.
	When we look at what is happening with the banking industry, of course, that's going to have financial implications for all of us and with the economy and everything else.
	And there's some other underlying things besides just the rope-a-dope scam that the Federal Reserve ran on them, keeping interest rates down essentially at zero.
	They had to start buying Federal Reserve notes, and then they start raising it so rapidly, everybody's scrambling to try to get out of those bonds that they had to buy.
	And some of them couldn't do it rapidly enough, but it really was a trap.
	But they're continuing to do that now, continuing to raise the rates.
	And just as we had First Republic go down last week and you have J.P. Morgan coming in and taking the cream of the crop, they're still picking over those bones and deciding what part of the carcass they're going to throw on to taxpayers.
	You've got another bank, PacWest Bank Corporation, Pacific Western Bank, that is on the West Coast.
	They lost... 56% of their stock share on Wednesday.
	They said so far this year they're down by 72%.
	That's what we saw with First Republic.
	It went down by 99% in just two months before it failed.
	And of course there were a lot of, not just one, but several members of Congress Who made out like bandits on insider trading, selling that stock and then, you know, buying into J.P. Morgan, who wound up, they knew this was all happening all the time.
	And, you know, like some people said, we would be in jail if we did something like that, but not members of Congress.
	Of course. I mean, they just get lucky, Dan.
	It's funny. The inside job of this, and I think really this is just paving the way for central bank digital currency.
	This is paving the way for CBDC. This is an engineered crisis.
	They're going to pick off some of the smaller banks.
	I watched this happen when I was a little boy in Texas.
	My dad chartered a bank at the age of 29.
	He built a bank from the ground up.
	I watched him do that.
	Back then, there was no national banking in Texas.
	You couldn't get a charter. There was no Bank of America.
	There was no Wells Fargo.
	There was no J.P. Morgan. There wasn't any of that.
	You couldn't have that charter in Texas, according to the Texas Constitution.
	Every bank had to have its own president.
	And I watched my dad struggle through this because of the FDIC, the FBI. They came in and they broke up Texas banking after the S&L crisis.
	They did that on purpose. You look back and you think, wow, that was completely engineered so you can get the bigs in there.
	And now when you walk into a bank in Texas, the president of that bank does no matter.
	There is no individual charter.
	You're not talking to somebody who's a decision maker.
	That's the whole point.
	Yeah.
	You look at the top down control system that is central bank digital currency that's coming.
	They're just going to pick a few banks.
	That's why when people were going out and saying, "I'm going to take my deposits out of this regional bank and go putting it into something, a bigger bank that's too big to fail." Well, not so fast.
	I mean, do you realize that they may not be picking that bank?
	There may be only, instead of three, it may be two.
	So Lehman Brothers, by the way, was a very well-connected old institution that was liquid, and they went under during 2008.
	They were set for the chopping block.
	They hadn't done something right, and they consolidated more into the larger banks.
	So I would caution people on that philosophy.
	I think that's very flawed. But they're going to piggyback off a lot of these bigger banks to run the central bank digital currency.
	At least that's how I see it.
	And they'll use the crisis that is on the horizon from de-dollarization.
	And we've talked about that several times in my last few appearances.
	The facts and figures that the world is using dollars less and less, which...
	It's going to cause a repatriation of dollars here, which does cause inflation on top of what the central bank and what the Fed's already done and what the government's already done for the welfare warfare state, all the massive trillions in printing devaluing.
	When those dollars repatriate, that's going to cause, I think, a collapse of the dollar as we know it.
	Maybe the real net zero, David, is going to be the purchasing price of the dollar, not carbon emissions.
	It is amazing, and I think that they're going to run this thing through people like Jamie Dimon, who's got the inside track on this, you know, the biggest bank, J.P. Morgan.
	And, you know, they can consolidate the banking industry and say, well, this is just to – we had to do that in order to react to what was happening to the medium and small-sized banks after what they caused to happen to those banks.
	But they can say, well, you know, he's just consolidating all this stuff.
	And you have the two big to fail banks after they gobble up all these other smaller failing banks.
	Then at some point, they just kind of hand over the reins to the Federal Reserve.
	They don't have to come in and say, well, as of tomorrow, we're going to take over the banking industry and consolidate everything.
	They just do it with a gradual iterative process using those big banks like J.P. Morgan, Bank of America and others to do that.
	And as you pointed out, the savings and loan crisis, you know, saying, well, this is corrupt and we're going to have to have more regulations and more controls.
	We see that being repeated in the against crypto with FTX and all the rest of stuff.
	The most politically connected of any of the people out there.
	And, you know, SBF.
	And so, you know, he runs this joke organization.
	And then they he might have thought he was really actually doing something.
	And they pull the rug out.
	He's got no idea about how to run a business.
	He doesn't care a whit about any of that stuff.
	But they can use him as a poster child.
	You know, build up this big straw man and then expose it for what it is.
	And now we've got an excuse to shut down all crypto.
	It reminds me of that commander in Vietnam that said, we had to destroy the village in order to save it.
	I think that'll be the rationale moving forward when they destroy the banking system by setting up those things like FTX. And we've discussed before, I'm a believer in things like Bitcoin.
	I like crypto. I'm skeptical of a great many of them because of their ties to venture capital and other things.
	But I do like the idea of decentralized currency that we the people use.
	And a lot of this just begs the question, why do we need governments for currency?
	We just don't.
	You're obsolete.
	We don't need you.
	We have an international gold standard because of the internet, because of worldwide communications.
	We have things like Bitcoin.
	We don't need governments.
	The governments know that.
	But again, they're using these current crises, financial, geopolitical, to push central bank digital currencies, which will really lead back to probably one, you know, master currency.
	I looked at the IMF director said yesterday that central bank digital currencies are...
	Going to be a fact very soon.
	I mean, she looked at the United States and said, even though there's a lot of discussion there, it looks like it's on the horizon, it's moving forward.
	It's really made it into our politics at all, except for places like your show and the alternative media.
	It hasn't really been talked about.
	I mean, there's some in Congress, but we don't really have any say there.
	You have the House majority, but it's not going to pass, even trying to regulate it or Or discuss it.
	But it's really not made it into our national politics.
	I believe that it will.
	At that point, will it be too late?
	That's the open question.
	But they are pushing it. It doesn't matter what the people want.
	It doesn't matter what the implications are going to be politically.
	I think they're going to push it.
	And that's what we need to be.
	I mean, even in the midst of losing our current way of life, which I believe because of the BRICS nations, David, because of The war in Ukraine and the current tensions with China.
	We're going to lose the standing of the world's reserve currency, which is going to change our economic way of life.
	I think even in the face of that, the most important thing is what they're going to do afterwards, and that's the central bank digital currency.
	I agree. And we're seeing every day new people who are leaving trying to get away from the U.S. dollar.
	But you said that we don't need a government currency.
	I really agree with that.
	And, of course, the founders believe that as well.
	They didn't need to have a government currency.
	They didn't want a government currency because they'd had an experience with that.
	They had the continental dollar, and that was a disaster.
	So they said, all right, everything that the government is doing, we're going to fix this in terms of either gold or silver.
	And so now we ignore all of that, and that's one of the reasons this currency actually were driving people away by weaponizing it.
	And so there was 19 different countries that said they wanted to be a part of BRICS, which is the Russian-Chinese independent system.
	And now we've had South Korea...
	And Indonesia, in just the latest day, central banks signed a memorandum of understanding to promote bilateral trade in national currencies to move away from the dollar as the intermediary, to move away from the dollar as a reserve currency.
	So even South Korea is pushing into that, even people that you would expect to be dependent on the U.S. government and to be an ally of the U.S. government.
	Well, yeah. I mean, look at Saudi Arabia applying for admission into the BRICS nation.
	Sixty other nations are also applying.
	Mexico, you know, we worried about an Amero, you know, 10, 15 years ago.
	We were talking about the North American Union.
	Is that even being discussed anymore?
	Or is everything moving eastward away from the West and consolidating power with the BRICS nations?
	This is an open question. Yeah, five Arab states, plus Iran, among 19 nations ready to join BRICS. This was just a couple of days ago.
	And... Again, everybody is fleeing the American system because it is weaponized, because you can't trust it.
	It's no more trustworthy than if you were an individual depositor in Canada, and Trudeau doesn't like your politics.
	You'll just seize your money. We did the same thing on an international basis.
	And, of course, they will do the same thing to us on an individual basis in this country.
	Biden is no different from Justin Trudeau.
	You mentioned the central bank digital currency and how that's not really, you know, we've had Emmer, The House whip who's talking about it, but as we've said, you know, even if the House passes it, Biden is going to veto it.
	But when you look at the candidates who were running on it, I was hopeful, well, maybe there will be some talk about it, because you had DeSantis talking about it, then you had RFK Jr.
	talking about it, you had Ramaswamy talk about it.
	But now the response is going to be, we're not going to have any debates.
	Because then, you know, Trump and Biden aren't going to talk about it.
	They're going to run away from it. They're going to pretend it doesn't exist.
	Biden wants this, but he's working behind the scenes, iteratively, step-by-step to implement it.
	He doesn't want to talk about it and defend it.
	He wants to impose it secretly on us.
	Yeah, it reminds me of 2012 when you had Romney running against Obama.
	Romney had Romneycare, right?
	You've mentioned this before. Obama, they were still waiting for the Supreme Court decision on the mandate in Obamacare itself.
	And either way, the power structure wins.
	I think that's what you're looking at here.
	They're going to make sure that no matter what, who's running, the CBDC is going to be implemented.
	And that's It's going to take grassroots.
	It's going to take real pushback from we the people to get this into the sphere of the debates, into the public discourse.
	That's why your show is so important.
	That's why alternative media is important.
	Because the powers that be are not going to allow this into the debate.
	I don't think that they'll win that battle.
	I mean, that's... I think with the loss of the purchasing power of the dollar, with the loss of the standing as the world's reserve currency, the banking crisis, people are starting to look at the monetary system like never before.
	I see this on the ground level as a gold and silver dealer.
	People walking here never have bought gold and silver, never have even thought about it, and saying, I'm going to take my cash out of the bank.
	And I'm worried because my bank won't even let me have cash.
	A lot of people don't realize that.
	You go in there, like, you're going to have to make an appointment.
	And people say, well, wait a minute, this is a bank.
	Isn't there a bunch of cash in here?
	No! There's not.
	Fortunately, I have two great banks that I work with, one in Texas, one in Missouri, and they've been magnificent.
	I've been kicked out of a few different banks on the way up.
	They didn't like the fact that I wired the trading floor.
	They didn't like the fact that I had deposits from crypto exchanges.
	They just said, get out.
	But there's a few banks out there that are great.
	They're not national brands, I'll tell you that much.
	I don't deal with national banks.
	But a lot of people are finding out the hard way.
	And this is even before, I think this is a calm before the storm.
	And I'm never an alarmist, David, but there is something terribly wrong with our system.
	And, you know, regardless of the financial impact of this, I listen to your show every single day.
	We're watching in real time the meltdown of Western Christian civilization because of cultural Marxism.
	And really, it's just Satanism.
	That's right. Marxism and communism are the operating system for Satanism in the material world.
	I say that on my show all the time.
	What I ask people is, why would you bet on that system?
	The fiat currency is really the lifeblood, it's the alma mater of our current culture.
	Regardless of what gold and silver are as an investment or a hedge, every time I buy gold and silver or if I'm investing in my company, I'm making a bet against that system.
	And so that's what I tell people.
	If you want to bet on the current system, you want to follow the Fang Sox and Jim Cramer and go, fine.
	I mean, that's fine. I hedge everything against that.
	Yeah, yeah. Don't follow Jim Cramer.
	You've got to follow Paul Pelosi.
	He's picking the winners. Yeah, no, that's a good point.
	You've got to think of the U.S. dollar as really the Bud Light of currencies.
	That's how... Well, a long time ago, when I restarted my radio show in San Antonio, I was trying to think of something off the cuff of what I would call the dollar, and I call them Luciferian Bankster notes, LBNs.
	And people write in and say, well, I've got these LBNs, you know, and they go to my website, and they go, I've got so much LBNs, can I turn them into gold or silver?
	So I find that funny, that I want to go off the cuff.
	But yeah, they're Luciferian Bankster notes.
	That's good, yeah, LBNs.
	Well, you know, even the IMF, Doesn't like the LBNs.
	They said the dollar is, quote, gradually being abandoned.
	That's the managing director of the IMF. He said there's been a gradual shift away from the dollar.
	It was 70% of reserves.
	Now it is slightly under 60%.
	That's happening pretty quickly.
	And he said that at the most recent Milken Institute Global Conference in Beverly Hills.
	But, you know, it was at that Milken conference where Fauci...
	Got frank and honest with people, said, yeah, we're going to do it from the inside, gradually and iteratively with chaos, you know.
	So they do go to these places, and they figure that it's not really going to be, you know, not much attention is going to be paid to it, so they can be frank with their fellow conspirators and tell them what's really going on, and that's really what's going on.
	Even the IMF is moving away from the U.S. dollar.
	Well, they know. The two words that were put together, managed decline.
	You heard that a lot in the 2016 presidential race, and that's what Hillary Clinton was for, was managed decline.
	The West has been abandoned by the power elites, and it's something interesting.
	I don't know. I'm a history connoisseur of dates.
	I like to look at what happened in key years.
	1973 is a really good year to look at to see where things went wrong.
	That was the peak of gold holdings for the U.S. It was the birth of the Trilateral Commission.
	It was the last year that the United States ran a trade surplus.
	I mean, and it was, again, if you, I don't know what you think about the moon landing, but I met Gene Cernan, the last man who walked on the moon.
	That was supposedly the last year we ever went to the moon, right?
	That's the year Roe v.
	Wade. Yeah. You know, it's the year that we were going to, you know, basically erase and terminate an entire generation of Americans by the Supreme Court through the Warren Court.
	So I really think there's key dates in history that show you where you're going to end up.
	And America has been slotted for destruction and to be siphoned off.
	I mean, we used to be the manufacturing marvel of mankind.
	We were the arsenal of democracy.
	Mm-hmm. I mean, look at Detroit.
	It's a shame.
	It's a crime, what happened to this country.
	And they didn't make a mistake.
	That's the thing. They didn't make a mistake.
	It was from the inside, inside, iteratively, right?
	That's what they, disruptively, iteratively, that's what they did.
	And again, there's no mistakes made.
	You go back to Gary Allen's, none dare call it conspiracy.
	You know, if they were just stupid, then they would err in our favor occasionally.
	They never do. And that's why we are where we are now.
	But it's not all doom and gloom.
	I think that there's opportunity here.
	There's going to be some resetting of the power structure.
	Financially, you have an opportunity not to bet on this system.
	And this isn't an infomercial on precious metals.
	Just really educate yourself.
	On what happens when a currency dies.
	I watched a currency die in real time.
	When I was a young man, when I was 23 years old at the tail end of the invasion of Iraq, my first mission was to go to the banks.
	And you know the banks were full of Iraqi dinar with Saddam Hussein's face on them.
	People were walking out with boxes of them out of the bank.
	The bank managers and people just had their hands up.
	They didn't know what to do.
	And it was just a complete raid on the bank.
	But guess what? Nobody wanted any of the currency.
	Yeah. So it died in real time.
	It was not exchangeable anymore.
	Even though it didn't have a high exchange rate to begin with, and people still used the petrodollar before that.
	They used the U.S. dollar. But that was something I watched in real time.
	So, yeah, that zero is real, but it has to do with paper currency.
	I think that's something Voltaire said.
	And it will happen suddenly.
	And it is escalating and accelerating as we see this happening.
	And we just had this last week.
	The UN and Davos, same time, coming out saying, we've got to push everything faster.
	We're not getting there as quickly as we need.
	We've got to have all this stuff in place by 2030.
	I think what they need to have in place by 2030 is everything taken down and then rebuilt into their wireless, wall-less prison that they want to have us on.
	And so they've got to accelerate this whole thing.
	So it is going to happen pretty quickly.
	Tell us a little bit about what is going on there at Wise Wolf Gold.
	Anything new happening there with the Wolf Pack or any other stuff?
	Lots going on with Wolfpack.
	I just got the gold backs in.
	It took two or three weeks, but we've got the new, you know, the actual recognized currency of Utah, Nevada, Wyoming, New Hampshire.
	There's little paper, not actually, the actual gold inlaid into like one thousandth of a troy ounce in each one.
	It comes out to like $2 worth of gold, so that's Like a $2 exchange note.
	So we've got goldbacks in.
	Those are going to be going out soon.
	I think that stuff is really cool.
	I've seen a couple of those. That is really cool.
	I like those. Yeah, they're neat. I'm going to send you some for sure.
	We've had a tragedy in Kinsey's family.
	I'd ask for prayers.
	She lost her niece.
	It's a three-year-old, I believe.
	Just a really horrible thing.
	It was a family tragedy. She drowned, got into the river behind the house.
	It was really, really awful.
	It was a tragic accident, and so she's been out for a week.
	So we've been just asking for prayers and support.
	If you go on Kenzie's Twitter page, there's a GoFundMe there for the family.
	It's just a... I haven't had my strongest ally.
	I haven't had the person who really makes the nuts and bolts of Wolfpack work for the last week.
	So we've been buying products.
	We've been stocking up.
	I tried to create at least a month's worth of product in reserves just because I think supply is going to be a problem.
	That's one of the reasons I opened up the North Texas location, David.
	I have a location now in Denison, Texas.
	They're on Main Street, longest Main Street in Texas.
	You can go to Denison, check it out.
	Doc Holliday had a dentist office there, and it's the birthplace of Dwight Eisenhower.
	You can go check out Denison, Texas.
	There's probably a lot of gold transactions happening there at that dentistry office as well.
	I imagine so. That's true.
	I didn't think of that. But yeah, I actually bought a gold tooth in Denison, I think.
	Yeah. So, yeah, we've got Wise Wolf Gold and Silver Denison is open, and that's great.
	I'm basically doing a week there and a week here in Branson.
	So I'm flip-flopping. I'm trying to build both locations, keep the supply chain open, and we're just servicing.
	Anybody who's going to davidknight.gold, we're helping with IRAs, 401k rollovers right now, and getting people into direct sales.
	There's no minimum. You can go to davidknight.gold, check that out.
	And of course, Wolfpack is always a way just to set a monthly membership and forget it.
	And we take care of it for you and send you a detailed invoice.
	I won't tell you how many members I have, but it's in the hundreds.
	We're hoping we get to a thousand very soon.
	We're going to celebrate we get to a thousand.
	I think that's a pretty stable number.
	But very, very low cancellation rate.
	Almost not noticeable.
	So I think once people get in there, they like it.
	Most of the time, they upgrade.
	So go to David Knight. I certainly appreciate the help that you've been to this program.
	And I tell you, I know how busy you've been as everybody is starting to look at gold and realizing what is happening financially with the dollar and everything else.
	And to lose Mackenzie.
	So, yeah, we'll keep Mackenzie and her...
	It was her niece who drowned, right?
	Yes, it was. Keep that family in her prayers.
	And the information about the GoFundMe, where will people find that at your site?
	You can... I just retweeted it at Tony Arterburn on Twitter.
	And at Fringe News, you can go to Kenzie's Twitter.
	You'll see that GoFundMe there.
	I'll retweet it again.
	Okay. I may put it on the WiseWolfGold Twitter as well.
	It's just... It's been a...
	The kind of discombobulating week for social media and everything, just the Wise Wolf family's been rallying around Kinsey.
	Yes, I understand. A difficult time, and so we'll keep the family in prayers.
	We'll take a look for that.
	I'll see if I can find it on Twitter, and I'll retweet it if I can find it there.
	Thank you for joining us.
	Thank you for taking the time. As I said, I know how busy you are, and it's always been a real blessing to this show.
	Thank you, Tony. Appreciate it.
	Thank you, sir. Tony Arterman, wisewolf.gold.
	And again, you can find it at davidknight.gold as well.
	We're going to take a quick break. When we come back, we're going to be talking to Gerald Salenti, transjournal.com.
	And I know Gerald is going to want to talk about these recent developments that have happened in Russia with peace as well as the election.
	So stay with us. We'll be right back.
	back.
	Lots to talk about.
	��
	�� In a world of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	Wow.
	All right, and joining us now is Gerald Salenti, TrendsJournal.com.
	An excellent publication, and he puts it on a weekly basis.
	It's done as a magazine, but more than the format is the content, and a tremendous amount of content.
	And I know that Gerald wants to talk about what is happening with war because he is pushing for the opposite.
	He's pushing for peace. He began the program by talking about this attack in the Kremlin.
	Thank you for joining us, Gerald.
	Well, thank you for having me, and thank you for all that you do.
	Well, thank you. When we look at this, and again, the press is saying, well, is this real?
	Is it a false flag?
	And, of course, we've got a Ukrainian corrupt bankster who is putting a bounty on somebody, you know, blowing up a drone around the Kremlin, around Red Square for their anniversary of the defeating of the Nazis.
	But the real issue, I think, is that both sides want this to be escalated.
	I don't think it really matters whether it's real or whether it's a false flag.
	Do you?
	It matters a lot in the sense that let's reverse this.
	Mm-hmm.
	Let's suppose the headline reads, drone strike hits White House.
	Yeah, that's right.
	Oh my God!
	Oh! Oh!
	We'll go kill anybody anywhere!
	Oh, how can they do that?
	Yeah. How could a drone hit the White House?
	This is terrible!
	I agree. Could you imagine if that happened?
	You look at the headline on CNN, what's going on right now, and they say, oh, what really happened?
	Or what, this is the one thing you have to know.
	Well, what, they're telling me the one thing I have to know?
	You know, this is serious.
	Here, this is the headline from Russia Today.
	Washington responsible for attack on Kremlin, Russia.
	Yes. All right, so let's reverse this.
	Russia responsible for attack on White House.
	Washington. Mm-hmm.
	Could you imagine? Could you imagine?
	Yeah. Just like 88% of them stupid people believe little Georgie Bush...
	We're going to get that guy Osama bin Laden dead or alive because what happened on 9-11?
	This is big.
	It's huge.
	We are headed to nuclear annihilation if we don't have peace and this doesn't stop.
	I agree. I agree.
	Yeah, you know, we look at it, but that's why I said, you know, we know that both sides want to escalate this.
	And, you know, you've got Ukrainian corrupt billionaire or whatever, made a lot of money in their corrupt system as a banker, offering a half a million dollars to somebody that flies the thing in there.
	So you've got all of this...
	You've got this incentive on it, all these indications that it could be coming from Ukraine.
	We have the information that was leaked by that guy at the Pentagon, or whatever they gave him, that showed that the intelligence agencies there in Ukraine were doing stuff outside, you know, whatever they wanted, that Zelensky's not in control.
	And of course, we knew that already. But when you look at, say, 9-11, I believe that was a false flag.
	It was used because they wanted a war.
	If Russia wants to escalate this in terms of this campaign, they could have done that as a false flag.
	If the Americans want to escalate it because they've been doing that from the very beginning, it could have been real.
	But either way, it looks to me like both sides want to escalate this thing, and it will be escalated.
	Whether it is real or whether it is a false flag, it's going to be escalated.
	Yep. Yeah, that's a key thing.
	I don't think it's false flag because they also just bombed another oil depot in Russia.
	Did they? Yeah, that's right.
	And there were two consecutive days they had two railroad bombings, you know, derailments and stuff like that.
	So, yeah, the oil refinery plus the two against railroad stuff.
	There is a drone campaign that has been ongoing.
	And I think it's interesting, you know, one of the things I said earlier today, Gerald, was that now you've got the Assistant Secretary General of NATO as well as Norway saying, you know, the Russians might step this up and they might start bombing our undersea pipelines and other things like that.
	It's like, well, why didn't you say that before when you were saying that the Russians were the ones that blew up Nord Stream 1 and 2?
	That's almost an admission for them to say at this point, Well, we know they didn't do Nord Stream 1 and 2, but now they might do something, right?
	It is pretty amazing.
	Now, this is serious.
	Again, the oil depot I'm talking about, not the one that just happened in Crimea.
	This is one that just came out in the news, you know, just a couple hours ago.
	Oh, okay. All right. So now there's two bombings of railroads and two bombings of oil depots in just the last week or so.
	Yeah. So this is escalating big time.
	Again, if a drone strike hit the White House, this would be America, right now the whole country would be ready to go to war.
	Yes. Yes.
	But if it hits the Kremlin, ah, what are you talking about?
	Stop! I don't want to hear this stuff.
	Hey, what happened? I wonder how Johnny Depp is doing, you know?
	Yeah. Or Amber Heard.
	You know, oh, did you see the Met thing, the gala that women were wearing?
	I mean, this is just stupidity of what the news is.
	And it's not news, by the way.
	You're looking at what's going on.
	Vice is filing for bankruptcy.
	What are they worth? How many billions of dollars a couple of years ago?
	Yeah. Vox. Business Insider just laid off 10% of its people.
	BuzzFeed going bust.
	One so-called media outlet after another going down.
	There is no journalism left anymore.
	I get the newspapers delivered every day.
	They're this thick now.
	They fired so many people.
	There's no journalism.
	We're not getting reporting.
	We're only getting what the government is repeating and pushing out there.
	So there's no investigative journalism and there's no real facts coming out.
	That's right. And it's only going to get worse.
	They're going to start using ChatGPT to churn out formula garbage.
	And they've even admitted that at some of the news organizations.
	We're going to get rid of some of the reporters because we can get, you know, all it is is just churning, you know, their narrative.
	And AI can do that better than a reporter can do.
	I'm not bragging about this, but I am bragging.
	When you see the Trends Journal each week, there's no magazine that comes close to this.
	Nobody's giving you trends analysis.
	We write, this is what they're saying what's going on.
	This is the story.
	Okay, here's our analysis, trends analysis.
	Here's our trend forecast.
	Rather than skewing it the way they do by using propaganda language to push you in a direction, and nobody tells you what it means or where it's going.
	That's right. That's right.
	You get yesterday's news today.
	It means nothing.
	And that's why all these companies are going out of business, because when you go to their sites, they're all repeating the same thing, which is different language.
	That's right. And it's not real anyway.
	It's nothing new. They're repeating what's not real, and everybody knows it's not real.
	It's an echo chamber of lies.
	It's not surprising that it goes out.
	It's very disturbing to me.
	I thought perhaps one of the best things that could come out of the campaign that is happening right now is to have some issues aired out, but of course they're going to make sure that doesn't happen.
	We saw that. I played the clip earlier of RFK going on ABC, and it was just an attack ad and You know, hitting him as being an anti-vaxxer and then editing out the comments of it.
	They're going to shut down the debates because Biden can't even figure out where he is on stage.
	And Trump doesn't want to talk about anything except the 2020 election.
	And so they're going to shut down the debates.
	And so there's not going to be any discussion about CBDC or vaccines or war for many of these people.
	It's going to be completely controlled throughout this entire so-called election process, this election.
	But you know, it's always been like that.
	The guy that the president never debates.
	The guy in office never debates.
	Obama didn't debate after he won.
	Clinton, one after another.
	They don't debate. So this is the way of the democracy of the United States.
	Yeah, I remember when I ran for Congress, they had a lady, it was the election after the one that Newt Gingrich had done for the contract with America.
	So I think that was in 94. And so this is in 96.
	And there was a lady who had gotten elected as a Republican, and I was running as a third-party candidate.
	She didn't want to debate.
	She'd only been in there for one time.
	And so they still wanted to have a debate to push the Democrat NPR did.
	So they got the token Democrat in this Republican district.
	And then they had me and another third party candidate on.
	And it was a joke.
	Even the Democrat didn't really know what he was talking about.
	But she didn't want to show up for the debate.
	And I agree.
	So Trump is looking at this as if he is the incumbent.
	Biden is the incumbent.
	So they're going to just shut that thing down.
	How do you think?
	What can other candidates do to get the message out?
	You know, the way they've got to get the message out is that, first of all, I want to just jump back.
	You know, I was the first one, as you well know, to say RFK Jr.
	And it's there.
	It's documented. You know, I'm going back to December.
	And I wanted RFK Jr.
	and Judge Napolitano.
	Anyway, The RFK Jr., you look at his ratings going up now.
	It started at 14, now they're at 20%.
	And he just came out saying that if he got elected...
	Snowden and Assange, you know, they're free.
	Yes, that's right. Yeah.
	And he's against the war in Ukraine.
	He's almost repeating word for word our occupied peace mandate.
	Close the bases overseas, bring home the troops and secure the homeland.
	And as you know, we're having a peace and freedom rally in Kingston, which you've been here before, on May 27th.
	So we're really fighting for this.
	So going back to RFK, you know, he's even backtracking a bit on the climate change thing.
	He's blaming this whole thing now on a Bill Gates movement, and it's not based on reality of what they're saying.
	This guy has an excellent chance of winning.
	So how does he do it?
	Well, if I was running the campaign, which I used to do, by the way, I don't know if you know this.
	I didn't know that, no. At a graduate school, I was working on the mayoral campaign in Yonkers, New York.
	It's 1971, a city of over 200,000 people.
	Angelo Martinelli gets elected.
	He didn't get elected that time.
	He became the longest running mayor after that he won.
	They were grooming me.
	I worked on the district attorney's campaigns.
	I worked on the state senators' campaigns.
	They sent me up to Albany.
	I was the assistant to the secretary of the New York State Senate.
	They were grooming me.
	It was the Republican Party.
	I didn't care about politics.
	I just wanted to make a living, and I didn't know what to do.
	And I just tried getting into this thing, and I hit the top right away.
	I designed and instructed America's first course in how to run campaigns.
	It was called American Politics and Campaign Technology.
	I taught it at St.
	John's University.
	Wow. Yeah.
	I was at this a long time.
	When I talk to people wanting to do social, you know, nobody listens to me because they know better.
	You know, the people that have no experience in this, you know, they run a drugstore, but they know how to do campaigns better than me.
	But anyway, what I would do if I was Kennedy, I'd get about...
	20,000 people.
	You'll get that.
	Go to the White House.
	Stay there.
	Biden debate.
	Biden debate.
	Biden debate. Biden debate.
	Biden debate.
	Day after day after day.
	That's how you win.
	It's simple. Number two.
	Look at the poll numbers.
	The people don't want Biden or Trump.
	They're in the Gallup poll numbers.
	They're in your Trends Journal this week in detail.
	Now, number three.
	The young people are going to go out to vote.
	And they're not going to want Biden or Trump.
	The reason the Democrats...
	Did so well in the midterm elections because a lot of young people went out.
	Again, whether you agree or disagree on the abortion issue, not the issue.
	The issue is, that's why they went out, because of Roe vs.
	Wade. The facts are there.
	I'm not making them up. So, he has...
	RFK Jr., This undoubtedly can be the next president of the United States.
	Now they're going to start throwing stuff out.
	He had sex with this one.
	He did this with that one.
	Did you know about this about him and that about him?
	So you're going to get a lot of dirt coming out too.
	Yeah, he said in his speech, he said, I've got so many skeletons in my closet that if they could vote, I'd be king or whatever, something like that.
	Yeah, and again, you know, I mean, I just did something really stupid to a friend and hurt his feelings.
	I feel terrible about it.
	You say stupid things sometimes, and, you know, I mean, you're a human being.
	You know, it breaks my heart, you know, how did I do something so stupid, you know?
	But, again, you're human.
	But did I kill anybody?
	No. Am I starting wars?
	Am I giving money to Jamie Dimon and the banksters?
	Look at the deal they just did with the First Republic.
	Look at the deal they just did.
	And you know it's in the Trends Journal.
	We've been warning about this for how long now?
	For how long now?
	Oh, you see gold prices?
	Yeah. When we went on the air, it was over $2,050.
	Wow. Yeah.
	Go back again.
	September. I do King World News.
	That's the big gold site.
	And it's right out of Eric King's mouth.
	Gerald, you said gold bottom in September.
	It was like in the 1600s.
	I said, this is the bottom of it.
	It's going to go up from there. We are in the worst geopolitical and socioeconomic crisis in modern history.
	You talked about before with the fraud of 9-11.
	Yeah. What preceded 9-11?
	Oh, the dot-com bust.
	Yes. People's mind got off the dot-com bust like that.
	That's right. And the same thing's going to happen now.
	When all else fails, they take you to war.
	Yes. They're going to come out here.
	Gerald, we have to take a break.
	We just heard that Russia retaliated and struck the White House, right?
	Something like that.
	Or they hacked our banking system.
	Whatever, whatever, whatever, whatever, whatever, whatever, whatever.
	They're going to lie us again.
	One lie after another.
	And, of course, they could hack our banking system and blame it on Russia.
	You know, I mean, that's the whole thing.
	We know how this stuff is going to roll out, and we know what they want, and we know that, you know, they're not even trying to...
	That was one of the things that RFK said.
	He said, look, in the past...
	I'm sorry, it wasn't RFK. It was Tucker.
	That's the other person everybody's talking about.
	Tucker said, in the past, you would have the same goal.
	They're trying to do something that's good, they would say, and they'd have a difference of opinion as to how they would get there.
	But now they're just looking at how they can harm us.
	You know, that's where we are right now.
	That's the kind of leadership that we've got.
	And not just in America, in every one of the countries.
	I mean, this is a global takedown of Western civilization.
	By design, they're all marching in lockstep to the same agenda.
	No, you're 100% right.
	Look, they call, again, in the Trends Journal, we have the correct spelling of democracy.
	D-U-H, duh, M-O-C-K-R-A-C-Y, duh, democracy.
	Look what just happened over there in France.
	You just said this is everywhere.
	Yeah. Three people are being fined 15,000 euros and a year in jail for giving Macron the middle finger.
	Wow. A woman is being fined 12,000 pounds for putting on Facebook This little slime will be on TV again.
	Call them a slime. How dare you call that little Rothschild boy with the fake hair a piece of slime?
	Yeah. Democracy.
	We're bringing freedom and democracy.
	Yeah. Isn't it amazing that Biden would use that as his slogan?
	Freedom. The guy who had the vaccine mandates and all the rest of this stuff.
	It's so incredibly cynical that he could do that.
	But you're not going to see...
	I don't know who that anchor was, Lindsay something, for ABC News.
	The way she came after RFK on the vaccine stuff.
	She would never come after...
	Biden for the vaccine mandates.
	She would never say that, you know, these vaccines were, you know, it was the vaccines that were dangerous.
	It wasn't the advice to not take them.
	She would never say that to him.
	She would never come after him for his cynicism about running a campaign now supposedly about freedom when he tried to push a vaccine mandate on everybody in the country, especially the people in the military.
	Oh, and then you read why when they came out and defended it, We use scientific data from officials and health experts that are...
	What are you talking about?
	The crap that you believe?
	How about the other side?
	Oh, by the way, did you hear a little story that just came out yesterday?
	The CDC had a big conference.
	Oh, yes. Did you see that?
	Yeah, super spreader event.
	Do you believe that?
	I don't believe that for a minute.
	Let's tell everybody we tested positive or whatever, because those tests don't mean anything anyway.
	They magnify it so much.
	Yeah, but everybody vaxxed, and all those people got COVID. Yeah, I know.
	You know, I'm looking for a quote here from They're probably sick from their vaccine.
	They're probably sick because they wore masks, and that's the other thing.
	You remember Taylor Lorenz, the one who was weeping about being doxxed and all that stuff, working for the New York Times?
	She did a story this week about this woman who was just scared to death because now the last safe place where she could go, which was the doctor's office, because people had to wear masks.
	Now they don't have to wear masks, and she's afraid to go there.
	It's like, hey, if your mask works, lady, you don't have to worry about it.
	You know, she was portraying this as if this was a problem.
	And this lady has got these ongoing respiratory system symptoms.
	And it's like, did you ever think that could be your mask?
	Because it probably is the mask that she's wearing over her face, right?
	We've seen ample evidence of that.
	Common sense would tell you that.
	But instead, Taylor Lorenz in the New York Times said about how she can't go anywhere now because it's just not safe out there for her because other people aren't wearing the mask.
	It'll never end with these people.
	This is the quote I was looking for.
	It's from Colonel Douglas McGregor.
	And he was on with Judge Napolitano.
	And they were talking about what's going on in Ukraine.
	And this is when those Pentagon Papers 2.0 came out about what's really going on there, those leaks that happened.
	And this is a quote from Colonel McGregor.
	Quote. The general public needs to know that virtually from the beginning, the people in government, at every level, have lied to them.
	Yes. The American people need to stop it.
	Only they can do it.
	End quote.
	Mm-hmm. Only they can do it.
	The American people need to stop it.
	Everybody listening, get this in your head.
	Get this in your head.
	If you don't do anything, then you deserve what you get because they're taking us to death now.
	World War II isn't ancient history.
	They just destroyed Europe.
	Go to Berlin. Hey, how about Dresden?
	Lovely. Oh, all you people over there in Nagasaki and Hiroshima that got bombed with nuclear bombs.
	Oh, it was happy days for you.
	This isn't ancient history.
	We have maniacal, demonic...
	Narcissistic, psychopathic freaks that people call our leaders destroying our lives.
	It's up to everybody to do something to stop this.
	And I'm doing everything I can.
	I put my money where my heart and soul are.
	So do what you can to support us at Occupy Peace.
	OccupyPeace.com and come to the rally on May 27th in Kingston.
	On John and Crown Street, it's going to start at 1 o'clock.
	And again, we're doing everything we can.
	But what are the people doing?
	And Douglas McGregor said it perfectly.
	Only the people can stop it.
	The American people need to stop it.
	Only they can do it. End of story.
	End of story. End of story.
	If you're dumb enough to vote for a stupid politician and the Democrats or repulsive kids to stop it, you better grow up.
	Oh, you like Chuckie Schumer?
	No, I like Diane Notso Feinstein.
	Mitch McConnell's my kind of guy.
	Oh, how about Lindsey Graham?
	Yeah, yeah.
	And most of them are on life support now.
	Oh, look at the freak show!
	Diane Frankenstein is what she's...
	Oh, could you believe this?
	Could you believe it? This is like watching those movies when I was a kid of the fall of the Roman Empire.
	Yeah. And they showed you the people that were the dopes that were playing the politicians of the day.
	Yeah. Yeah, and they've got the Caligula sex side as well through Epstein.
	All these people connected through Epstein.
	It is truly amazing.
	I mean, even the younger ones, you know, like Fetterman, he gets elected in spite of the fact that he can't process any information.
	I mean, you know, it's just the American people are propagating that.
	That is absolutely what is happening.
	Yep. I mean, you look at the guy Fetterman, my God!
	Yeah. I mean, look at him.
	Yeah. You're voting for this guy?
	He's out of his mind. He has no mind.
	Yeah, I know. I know.
	Going to empty out the hospitals.
	And he's been in nobody all his life.
	Yeah, that's right. Yeah, he doesn't have any accomplishments.
	But, you know, look at who he's running against.
	He's running against the guy that Trump picked, which is Dr.
	Oz. I mean, that...
	You... Anybody, a real candidate could have beaten him, but we didn't have a real candidate, unfortunately.
	You know, we had, and I keep forgetting her name, but there was that in the Republican primaries, there was a couple of Davos people, Dr.
	Oz and this other businessman, and then there was the young black woman who outed them both as Davos people, but Trump didn't support her.
	You know, she could have actually won, I think, because she's got a mind and she's candid about things.
	I've had enough of Trump, my God.
	I know. Enough!
	I know. Enough! All you Trump fans, do you like the tax deal that he did?
	Yeah. That the 1%, according to the Tax Policy Center, got 64% of the benefits, and they did more stock buybacks that following year than ever before because they got so much money to bigs.
	Yeah. That Trump, the Trump that promised to fix our infrastructure that did zero, that Trump, Yeah, or the border.
	You know, everybody's freaking out about the border.
	The only thing that he did, everybody's freaking out about the Title 42 thing, is that, look, the only thing Trump ever did at the border was to lock it down because of COVID. You know, he didn't do anything at the border that he told everybody he was going to do.
	So I really don't understand...
	You know, myself, I mean, I've been done with Trump since 2020.
	But even before that, you know, we had the gun control betrayals.
	We had the tax code betrayals.
	And then 2020, it was just one after the other.
	I just could not believe what he did to this country.
	Look what he did to Venezuela. Yeah.
	We're trying to put that guy Guaido in that just came to America now.
	He declared him the president of Venezuela.
	Yeah. Cut off the oil.
	Yeah. Yeah, why not?
	I mean, you can just make up whoever you want the winner to be, right?
	That's what we're talking about with the election and stuff.
	But, yeah, it is absolutely amazing.
	And, of course, now he's arrogant.
	He doesn't want to have any debates either.
	And there was an interesting story that came out about how he got angry with reporters on the plane and grabbed the guy's phone.
	I mean, it's all about him.
	All he cares about is winning.
	He doesn't want to talk about issues.
	He's not a leader. He's a narcissist.
	That's all he is.
	Yeah, just amazing. You know, I tell this story.
	We're about the same age.
	He's a couple of months older than me.
	And... When I was a kid, as a matter of fact, I wrote it in my Zizi book, this book, What Zizi Gave Honey Boy, my favorite of everything I've ever written.
	It's about growing up as an Italian-American in the Bronx and moving on to Yonkers.
	But anyway, what the family used to be.
	And I write about how when we were kids...
	My parents had enough of us.
	Your little S.O.P., we had enough.
	Me and my older brothers were sending you to the military school.
	That was the greatest punishment that you could make a kid be good.
	Oh, we'll be good, we'll be good.
	And I tell the story of how they took us to the botanical gardens in the Bronx and had these big gates in the front.
	Little kids, we didn't know it was the botanical gardens.
	And my father said that was the military school.
	Get out of the car. They put luggage in the car.
	They threatened us.
	Anyway, yo, we'll be good, we'll be good.
	That was the biggest threat in my life, in my generation, that if you're out of hand, they're going to send you to military school.
	They sent Trump to military school.
	And it's not far from where I am over here in Kingston.
	It's down in Cornwall.
	In the middle of nowhere.
	In the middle of nowhere.
	Now, this is a kid that got everything.
	His daddy's rich.
	He's living at the top.
	He was so out of control, they sent him to military school.
	That's how narcissistic he is.
	Yeah, yeah. Yeah, well, his lawyer, Ty Cobb, who used to be his lawyer, said that he's incapable of acting except out of his own perceived self-interest or out of revenge.
	And that's really what this is about.
	You know, he wants to run again, not because he accomplished anything.
	Give us a list of your accomplishments.
	Both Trump and Biden don't have any.
	Well, actually, Biden does.
	Actually, Biden has done a great deal with his agenda to destroy this country.
	You know, Biden, Trump is just taking orders from these people.
	But it truly is a shame.
	It is about an ego trip for them.
	And he doesn't need to talk about the issues.
	Like I said before, if he gets elected, you know, CIA or whoever is running the show will tell him what he has to do at that point in time.
	So why talk about the issues now?
	He's not going to do what he tells you now anyway, just as we saw before.
	It is truly a shame, you know, what is happening with it.
	Let's talk a little bit about money, because you mentioned earlier J.P. Morgan and Jamie Demon, I like to call them, got the cream of the crop out of First Republic.
	Its stock dropped 99% in just two months.
	We had insider trading going on in...
	And with about a half dozen members of Congress on their stock, you know, selling their stock and buying into J.P. Morgan.
	He and his stockholders' letter at the beginning of April said he wants to see the government start doing eminent domain confiscation for his benefit so that they can put in their green projects.
	I mean, where do you want to start with this?
	How corrupt is this? And, of course, now we've got another bank that is circling the drain.
	They're not even done with First Republic, and now they're talking about Pacific Western.
	And it's lost 72% of its value in the last few weeks.
	I mean, this is starting to become a big trend, isn't it?
	Yes, and it's just begun.
	And again, we wrote about, this is all in your Trends Journal, by the way, we detailed it.
	And going back to Diamond said, don't worry about it now, the worst of the banking crisis is over.
	That's what he said on Monday.
	So forget about the one that just happened now.
	So here's the deal.
	The bigs are getting bigger.
	J.P. Morgan's the biggest bank in the United States.
	J.P. Morgan Chase, now it just became even bigger.
	Then you look at the failures of these three banks that just happened and now the other one.
	Those three lost more money than the 25 did when the panic of 08 hit.
	Are you bigger? Yes.
	Mm-hmm. Now let's go to the big story here that, as you well know, and as documented, when they began the COVID war back in 2020, starting in Techland, what happened was the first COVID deaths were in Kirkland, Washington, a nursing home.
	Mm-hmm. The guy Twitter, that guy with the beard, the Dorsey guy, Twitter, is supposed to go.
	We wrote about this as it was happening.
	He was supposed to go to South Africa and cancel this trip.
	Told all the employees to stay home.
	Don't want to spread COVID. Yeah.
	And then Zuckerberg, Pichai...
	Cook! All the tech freaks!
	Close down!
	Go home! Close down!
	Go home! Their business soared.
	People are staying at home.
	Everybody follow them.
	They're buying from home.
	They're learning from home.
	They're working from home. Oh, they're working from home?
	Oh, yeah. And guess what?
	Now they're home for like three, four, five months at a time, people all over the country, and they're saying, holy, I've been getting up at five o'clock in the morning to go commute an hour and a half, an hour and a half.
	I'm not doing this thing. I'm not doing it.
	The work-at-home trend is real.
	So let's now look at the freaks that caused this.
	The geek freaks.
	Your office vacancy rate, not occupancy rate, vacancy rate in San Francisco is almost 30%.
	Nordstrom just closed down two of their places in San Francisco because of the crime.
	And nobody going shopping.
	Whole Foods opened up The megastore there, they closed down last week.
	I talked about that yesterday.
	They had 568 911 emergency calls to the police in just 400 days.
	And, I mean, these are serious things.
	Hey, there's a guy in here with a machete.
	You know, it's amazing. All the workers are gone, but the homeless drug addicts are there 24-7.
	It's amazing. So now you go to take a trip to LA. Let's stay in San Francisco.
	You need any fentanyl?
	Don't worry about it. You can get it anywhere.
	That's right. Yeah.
	Oh, you're homeless people, crazy people everywhere besides them.
	Yeah. They destroyed the city.
	Yeah. Now let's go to LA. 30% vacancy rate.
	The office occupancy rate, according to Castle Systems, that's with a K, in the United States, if you Google it up, anybody, I looked yesterday, it was 49.6%.
	Office occupancy rate.
	Okay. That means half the people aren't going back to work?
	What's going to happen to the...
	Interest rates, oh, they just raised interest rates 25 basis points.
	Oh, and these big corporations that own these buildings have floating loans.
	And now they're coming due.
	So now they have to pay more on their loans as they have less and less and less tenants.
	And now they can't pay their loans.
	Oh, so who's holding the loans?
	Oh, the banks. Yeah.
	Virtually no one is talking about this.
	It comes out in little bits and pieces.
	We've been warning about this for three years, and we made it one of our top trends for 2023, office building bust.
	So where is the economy going?
	I remember I was talking about that at the very beginning, you know, when they locked everything down and you saw these pictures of, you know, Manhattan.
	It was a ghost town. I ran a clip of, you know, the beginning of Breakfast at Tiffany's, which I always thought was funny because there's nobody else on the road.
	But a couple of weeks ago, we talked about how this one big commercial real estate firm had lost $162 million in Washington, D.C. And I said, how did you lose that?
	That same firm, a few days after we talked, Gerald, They're in LA. They're at three quarters of a billion loss in that town.
	And they're national.
	I mean, they're losing money like this in every city.
	Yep. And the number that they put out there is almost $5 trillion worth of business, commercial business debt.
	Wow. $5 trillion. Wow.
	And now it's coming due.
	Now it's coming due.
	And now the subleases are way up.
	People are getting out. They're subleasing what they have for almost nothing.
	And they're not renewing their leases.
	So this is going to bring down the banking system like you can't imagine.
	And the FDIC only has so much money and they're almost out of it.
	And then you talked about what's also going on.
	They're doing all these short sellings that are driving the stock prices down.
	Mm-hmm. So they're shorting, they know the banks are going to go down, so the shorts are driving the prices down even more.
	So this thing is going to, and again, look at gold prices.
	As I said, before I came on the air with you, it was over $250, $2,050 an ounce.
	This is just the beginning.
	Now, let's go, the Fed just raised interest rates yesterday.
	Today, the European Central Bank is expected to raise them.
	Oh, go to your Trends Journal.
	Each week we put layoffs.
	This is our 38th week of doing it.
	Oh, Spotify just announced they're cutting another 20% of their work staff?
	And they've been cutting before?
	Oh, that just came out.
	One after another.
	One after another. One after another.
	Firing, firing, firing, firing, firing.
	So now you're raising interest rates.
	Huh. Do you see the manufacturing index?
	Yeah. It's down.
	Oh, yeah. Oh, but consumers are spending more.
	Well, no. They're not spending more.
	Not when you put inflation into it.
	And when you look at retail sales, they're down.
	They're spending more on services because it's costing them more to live.
	Yeah. But not retail.
	They're not spending more.
	And then you're looking at shrinkflation and the companies across the spectrum are raising the prices of everything of the big companies and giving you less product.
	Yeah, that's right. Yeah.
	So this thing is serious.
	And that's why, to me, gold, and again, as you will know, there's no advertisers in the Trends Journal, not promoting anybody.
	We don't give financial advice.
	We give you the forecast, and our forecast is going back now to raising interest rates.
	The word on the street is this is the end of it.
	And everybody understand this.
	This raise that they just made, when they raise interest rates, the damage doesn't happen like that.
	It takes time.
	And now that time has come.
	So now, in the run-up to the 2024 elections, they're going to lower interest rates.
	They do it all the time.
	Yeah. Because now, when they lower interest rates...
	Go back to your April 4th cover of the Trends Journal, Death of the Dollar.
	The dollar is only strong because interest rates are high.
	When they start lowering interest rates, the dollar goes down.
	The dollar goes down.
	That means America, the slimeball politicians that sent all our manufacturing overseas, the Nikes, the Levi's, the everybody's, that means it costs us more to buy product because our currency is worth less, which means inflation will stay high.
	As the economy goes down, we call it dragflation.
	Not stagflation.
	It won't be stagnant.
	It'll drag down as inflation goes up.
	Number two on the dollar.
	The world has had enough of America's socioeconomic and geopolitical hegemony.
	They're abandoning the dollar.
	Is it going to end overnight?
	No. But...
	If they take us off the petrodollar, yes it will.
	So it goes back to gold.
	And talking about taking us off the petrodollar, of course Saudi Arabia made their move with China some time ago.
	And then we've got five Arab states now, plus Iran, wanting to join 19 countries that are already in the BRICS. We've even got, and this is amazing to me, Gerald, to see that South Korea As well as Indonesia, but South Korea says, we want to get away from the U.S. dollar.
	We want to trade in other currencies other than the U.S. dollar when we buy and sell internationally.
	I mean, everybody is walking away from it.
	The IMF is saying, yeah, we used to have about 60, you know, we used to have like 72%, I think it was, of the, you know, the currencies and the dollar.
	Now it's dropped into the 60s, and it's, you know, it's starting to accelerate.
	Even the IMF is going to take time, but it's the beginning of the end.
	Yeah. And, you know, what had happened is that America became the country that our founding fathers fought against.
	That's right. That's right.
	The sun never sets on the British Empire.
	We'll kill anybody, steal anything we want all over the world.
	We're America. We'll invade any country, kill anybody we want in the name of bringing freedom and democracy and build our military-industrial complex.
	Well, the sun never sets on American military bases, the 800 and over 70 countries.
	So when did the pound, the British pound, die?
	After World War I. Because of all the wars that the UK kept fighting.
	And now it's the same thing with America.
	Because of all the wars that we've been fighting, now it's the death of the dollar in front of us.
	Peace is profitable.
	War is costly.
	As I said, the 20th century was the American century.
	The 21st century, unfortunately, is going to be the Chinese century.
	Because the business of China has been business.
	The business of America has been war.
	That's right. Yeah, China's absolutely doing with their Belt and Road Initiative what we used to do in the early 20th century.
	Build you engineering projects and that type of thing.
	We profited from going in and building infrastructure.
	That's what they're doing now.
	And they're getting on the ground floor with all these resources.
	And everything that they're doing to reset our economy, of course, pushing us with no time left.
	We've got to abandon what works, abandon what we have, and go for these untested, untried, and probably unworkable solutions.
	And yet... Those are not going to be profitable for us because all of them are in a position where China has already positioned itself for the minerals, for the manufacturing, and for all the rest of the stuff.
	So we're going to be buying all of this new stuff at higher prices from China.
	That's what they've engineered and leveraged us into.
	Well, you could thank the slime balls like Bill Clinton.
	Yeah. We started with NAFTA. Yeah.
	And then he brought China into the World Trade Organization.
	You know, people forget the Battle of Seattle back in 1999, when almost 50,000 people took to the streets, because they had the World Trade Organization meeting there, and the people were protesting because they were bringing China into it.
	But what happened, as they do all the time, they had a couple of agents provocateurs, these guys dressed in black and perfect shape, you know, have faces covered, smashing windows and burning a couple of cars, and that became all the news.
	Mm-hmm. Not that the people were protesting about the loss of American jobs.
	And you look at China's GDP from 1970 until they came into the World Trade Organization, officially two weeks after 9-11, and their GDP strike...
	Soars up. And the slimy American companies that went over there, the deal is this.
	Now, you can't open your own company here, but you could go on partners with one of our guys.
	But you only could own 49% of the deal.
	So now China that couldn't make anything gets all the high-tech and heavy industry technology they need to become who they are.
	That's right. And you talked about South Korea.
	Yeah, South Korea is saying, you know, we're going to trade in our currency.
	Who's South Korea's biggest market?
	Oh, China. China, yeah.
	Yeah. Absolutely.
	Again, we wrote about this in this week's Trends Journal.
	I forget the numbers, but the China numbers like that, the American numbers like that.
	Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
	So this is the beginning of the end.
	And again, it's up to the people to do something.
	As I keep saying, it does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brush fires of freedom in the minds of men since Samuel Adams.
	And you, David Knight, are that tireless minority, as am I and the people listening.
	But we have to unite.
	Yes. As they say, united we stand, divided we die.
	That's right. And we're on the cusp of death.
	Because if there's a nuclear...
	Look, they just bombed the Kremlin.
	I know. They just attacked the Kremlin.
	I know. And it's out there.
	I mean, it's out there that, look, you know, we've seen it's American weapons that they're using.
	It's their intelligence system that is doing this.
	And, you know, the Ukrainian people are running, you know, the Ukrainian...
	The intelligence agencies are the ones who are running these attempted assassination strikes.
	As I pointed out earlier, they bragged about the fact that they had sent in a drone to try to hit Putin.
	They missed him by 12 miles, looking at a place that he was going to be at a park, and they sent the thing in.
	But they were bragging about it. They said, yeah, we're getting closer.
	We're going to do it. So, I mean, they're not even trying to disguise it.
	The only person who's denying it Is Zelensky, because I guess he knows that if he admits it, he's going to be the target for assassination, but they've already said they want to assassinate him.
	Oh, he'll be gone. Yeah, so it's, you know, when you look at this, though, I mean, pretty much they're not even making...
	My point is, they're not even trying to deny it, really, in a plausible way, and...
	And it's going to be escalation.
	I mean, even if you look at it from the standpoint that the Russians wanted to galvanize people to support them in this war, that would still be escalation.
	Either way you look at this, regardless of what happened, it still says escalation.
	And it is pretty amazing how bold this has gotten.
	And it's just one step after the other, this march to war.
	And nobody is really pushing back against it.
	Nope. We are.
	Yeah. This is from the Russian presidential spokesman, Dmitry Peskov, said, quote, talking about the drone strike, such decisions, the definition of goals, the definition of means, and so on, all this is dictated to Kiev from Washington.
	And we are well aware of this.
	Yeah. We know full well that the decisions to carry out such terrorist actions are made not in Kiev, but in Washington.
	That's right. And I think, as I talked about this earlier, I think...
	It's right there. It's right there. They're saying America did it.
	Yeah, I know. And how might they respond?
	You know, they may not respond initially with a nuclear exchange, but they will with infrastructure attacks.
	And our infrastructure is so neglected that they would have plausible deniability that it was even them.
	You know, so it's the sort of thing, that's what I would expect to see happen before they escalate to, I would see that as an intermediate step before a nuclear war.
	Yeah. Would be infrastructure attacks.
	That's why I keep telling people, you know, watch out for that because...
	Our trains are derailing left and right because of lax procedures and decaying infrastructure.
	So, you know, they could help that along.
	You know, they could do it in a way that it doesn't have their fingerprints on it.
	And so, yeah, expect to see that.
	Expect to see a lot of hacking of infrastructure.
	And we know that can be shut down very easily.
	They could blame that on people putting it out as ransomware.
	So I think that's the type of thing we're going to be seeing in the future as well.
	Oh, by the way, did you see that video clip of that young fellow, Jose Vega?
	What did he do? They had the Washington Post conference.
	It was all about, you know, freedom of speech.
	And he asked them how come they're...
	Is that Columbia University, I believe?
	Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
	They had to carry him out because he was talking...
	They threw him down to the ground.
	Yeah. Oh, yeah.
	After he said, I finished speaking, I just want an answer.
	Mm-hmm. And the dean threw him down to the ground.
	Yeah. This is America.
	That's right. That's right.
	I'm thinking of getting him here as a speaker, too.
	A brave young man.
	That's good. That's good.
	And that's May 27th that you're going to be having that in Kingston?
	May 27th on John and Crown Street in Kingston, New York, the Four Corners of Freedom, the most historic four corners in America.
	The only place with pre-revolutionary war stone buildings and the seeds of democracy was sown here.
	Right across the street where the state house, the capitol building is, the Ulster County capitol building that used to be when this was the First capital of New York State, but the British burned it down.
	They moved to Albany. The Constitution that was written for New York State, over 70% of America's Constitution come from that Constitution.
	And John Jay, he was a judge over there.
	That's a great point. So the seeds of democracy were sown here, and that's why I bought those buildings.
	Yeah. And that's why I'm doing everything I can, and we need all the help we can get.
	I can't do this on my own.
	You know, that little clown, Beto O'Rourke, that little jerk over there in Texas, that other clown over there in Georgia, where Abrams, they both ran for governor, they both lost, and they both spent $100 million to lose.
	Could you imagine if we had $100 million apiece?
	Could you imagine? Could you imagine?
	Oh, yeah. Absolutely.
	Yeah, when you look at what is happening to free speech, I had an individual say, you know, I've been talking about this law that DeSantis went to Israel to sign, right, to make a hate crime, you know, to make it.
	And they've got these racist, anti-Semitic people who are trolling people in predominantly Jewish areas, but they want to make it into a felony.
	And, you know, when I look at the basis of that, and he sent me the law, and it's like, no, I really, when I look at this, And it says, you know, if you're going to do this in a harassing way and so forth, we're going to call that a hate crime.
	I don't support any hate crimes.
	I don't support any restrictions on free speech.
	I see that as a very amazingly un-American action.
	You know, there isn't any way that we should be ever standing for that in America, to have somebody make a crime out of that.
	But it is escalating, and it's escalating on both sides, Republican as well as Democrat.
	Nobody wants to have any free speech anymore.
	It's truly amazing. Oh, by the way, this DeSantis, they just passed a law.
	You can't find out who's paying for all his trips.
	Oh, they passed a law for that?
	Okay, yeah, because everybody was starting to ask about that.
	Yeah, and even the past ones know you're not allowed to look.
	This is America. He's a phony.
	He's a phony. I don't want my $3.8 billion a year going to Israel, one of the richest countries around.
	Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. I don't want my money going anywhere.
	I don't want to go to Italy.
	I don't want to go to Ireland.
	I only want to go to America.
	DeSantis does this to get the Jewish votes in Florida.
	What am I, six years old?
	Oh, yeah. They made it very clear.
	The two representatives that talked about it and the person sent to me said, no, this is not just about protecting Jewish voters there.
	It does it for any religious or ethnic group.
	And I said, okay, well, you know, this is, when I look at this, it says harassment or intimidation based on religious or ethnic heritage.
	So that's everybody. It's not just Jewish people.
	But when are they going to add gender to that?
	When are they going to add a different group?
	And this whole thing about it being hateful is subjectively determined.
	And so there's absolutely no reason that we should ever be putting people in jail with a felony because they do something that is hateful.
	I absolutely disagree with that.
	I understand that it's hateful. I understand that it's racist what these people are doing.
	But that should not be a felony.
	That should be opposed with a free speech.
	We should have more free speech to oppose that.
	This idea that they're going to determine what is Hateful and what is not hateful, what is true and what is not true.
	That is the essence of totalitarianism.
	Well, look what they do when they call all the Palestinians that fight back.
	Militants. Yeah, yeah, that's right.
	You're a militant? You got an evading country?
	Oh, no, it's not an evading country.
	It's an occupied territory.
	We'll do anything we want with it.
	Occupied? You stole this stuff.
	How about all the human rights organizations that are calling Israel an apartheid state for what they're doing to the Arabs?
	Oh, that's fine, Salenti.
	And what the hell are you doing over there?
	You're the governors of Florida.
	What are you doing in Israel? I know.
	He's done that twice. He's done that twice.
	They're all phonies.
	They're all clowns.
	Again, who's your favorite clown?
	I like Chucky Schumer.
	You know, I like...
	Nick McConnell.
	Yeah. Look at the sharks.
	Yeah. You look at Ramaswamy, who was – here's an outsider trying to portray himself that way.
	He paid somebody to fix his Wikipedia page because the truth is that he was on Governor DeWine's COVID council.
	I wonder if he's the one who came up with that lottery thing.
	A million dollars here.
	You play the lottery, you win, or you die.
	Are you feeling lucky today, punk?
	I wonder if he came up with that.
	So he wanted that scrubbed, and he wanted it scrubbed that 11 years ago he was getting money from Paul Soros, the older brother of George Soros, just like they've got the young Davos leaders and stuff.
	So he wanted that scrubbed, and he's been criticizing Soros.
	He doesn't want you to know that he was taking money from the Soros family.
	When you look at politics, especially at the presidential level, it's just so hopelessly corrupt, isn't it?
	Yep. Yeah, that's why.
	You're right. The people have to do something about it.
	If we take the lead, perhaps they will follow.
	If we take the lead, perhaps we can nullify what they're doing at the local level to some degree.
	And I think that's really important.
	But, you know, whenever we look at...
	Bad circumstances like this situation in Florida.
	You know, you take a bad law, a bad circumstance, something that's bad and you want to oppose it, and you create a law that's going to have very broad principles.
	You better understand how those principles are going to be applied by other people in other ways.
	And that's not the right way to address a problem like that.
	It's a very specific problem that needs to be addressed specifically.
	But to create this law that says we're going to have a carte blanche that if we decide that something is hateful to any group, and of course these protected groups are constantly evolving and changing, that is a blueprint for disaster.
	But again, it is really a shame to see that.
	And We've got some people who are going to talk about CBDC and some of these other issues, but it looks like there's not going to even be any debates now at this point.
	So it's going to be guerrilla tactics, like you pointed out, massive mobs saying, hey, we need to debate, and hectoring them over not debating.
	That's going to get some attention.
	He might be able to, you know, if there's whatever Tucker Carlson does, Tucker Carlson's already had him on once.
	He might go outside the controlled media and he might have enough attention that he could, you know, do something that would probably get more views than if they had a debate.
	We'll have to see.
	I don't know.
	But we're out of time.
	Always great to have you on, Gerald.
	And again, it's TrendsJournal.com.
	By the way, if you use the code NIGHT, you can get a discount of 10% off of TrendsJournal.com.
	Always great to have you on.
	Thank you, Gerald.
	Thank you, and thank you for all that you do.
	I so much appreciate it.
	Thank you so much. All right, that's it for the program today.
	By the way, folks, we will be here tomorrow.
	We had a last-minute change, and so the program will be live tomorrow.
	It will not be a rebroadcast.
	Thank you. Joe, we've got a problem.
	What, uh, who are you?
	It's the new mug they're selling at thedavidknightshow.com, right?
	So, basically, a mug is something that holds liquid, right?
	Because basically you can't hold coffee with your hands, right?
	I'm what it's scatting, but anyone tries to mug me, I'm being ready for it.
	You dog-faced pony soldier.
	They say the mug can help patriots drink coffee, then save the world.
	This could be bad for us.
	Save the world, but we owe the world.
	These people, they're supporting free speech with every month they buy.
	Come on. These people, I tell you, well, anyway.
