The David Knight Show
they fit. Let me in. Let me in.
Oh.
Welcome to the show on this Tuesday, the 23rd of March year of the 23rd of March year of our Lord 2023.
I want to begin with the news today.
We've got a lot to talk about.
And I want to talk about bank mergers, Samsung, CBDC. We've got a back and forth with RFK Jr.
and a person who was, I'd never seen her before, a crystal ball.
Quite a piece of work she was, actually.
And we're also going to talk about driving.
In the UK, they are on the cutting edge of this tyranny to take away our transportation.
And yet now we have, it's gotten so bad that there are vigilantes who were taking down The cameras and other things.
We've got a pothole Robin Hood.
And we have politicians going around filling up the potholes.
It makes the government very angry there.
And we've got politicians who are running on a platform to try to help people to use their cars.
We're going to go the other direction than Sadiq Khan.
So it's kind of interesting to see the pushback that is beginning there.
And I wonder when it's going to happen here.
But let's begin with the news. It's interesting to see.
You may remember how angry President Xi got about any references to Winnie the Pooh.
Just one cartoon.
That's why satire is so powerful.
And of course, Xi Jinping is very, very sensitive to it.
As a matter of fact, Travis was telling me when I did the interview with the individual who was with Falun Gong and they were talking about China cutting out organs of living people and other things that they were doing there.
Travis was going to put up something in Chinese prisons.
And we typed in Chinese prison in the mid-journey.
It says, sorry, you can't do that.
So we had to just use generic prisons.
You've got to remove that.
As a matter of fact, you're not allowed to ask it to do anything about Xi Jinping either.
And I've said in the past that this vicious satire program called Spitting Image in the UK, I think it's very funny the way they characterize individuals.
And look, I always enjoy satire whether I agree with the people's politics or not.
They had vicious satire of Prince Charles and the royal family, of Trump, all the people in his cabinet, of Boris Johnson, all the people in his cabinet.
They even did vicious satire of liberals.
But when it comes to President Xi, this British satire company doesn't satirize his appearance whatsoever.
There's nothing exaggerated or cartoonish about him whatsoever.
And he doesn't act in an exaggerated or cartoonish way like all the other characters act either.
And so I thought it was interesting when I saw this.
The irony? Guess which nation produces the most honey per capita?
Well, it turns out it's China!
Another connection to Winnie the Pooh.
But, you know, don't make that connection between Xi Jinping.
And, of course, the way that happened initially...
There was a picture of Xi Jinping walking with a...
Scroll down the page to the bottom of the thing there and you'll see the picture.
There was a picture of Xi Jinping walking with Obama and somebody put next to it, Winnie the Pooh walking with Tigger because he was so much shorter than Obama.
That got him really angry.
And so then people just started using Winnie the Pooh as an avatar for Xi Jinping.
And the Cannes Film Festival, they've had a film that has a gross-out vomiting scene getting a five-minute standing ovation at the Cannes Film Festival.
When I saw this headline, it reminded me of the Cannes Film Festival in 2021.
Where they said they were very angry, the people who were attending were very angry that they had to spit into something to do the COVID test.
And that really struck me because at the time, everybody here was having long swabs ramrodded up their noses, right?
And they were upset because they had to spit.
They said, this is disgusting. The same people just gave a five-minute standing ovation to a gross-out vomit scene in the movie.
And, of course, I said at the time when that happened, I said that it looks to me like this thing is increasingly just a tool of humiliation.
I said, certainly, if you want to do these ridiculous PCR tests where they magnify it by 1.1 trillion times doing a cycle threshold of 40, you could do this without using a probe.
And yet we saw in China, we saw they took American Embassy staff and they did anal probes to them.
And they were laughing about it.
It's all about humiliation.
All of this pandemic, all this virus, it was really about humiliation for all of us.
Rubbing our noses in it, or rubbing their swabs in our noses, right?
It was all about humiliation.
And so, you know, if there was any science to that, if it wasn't about humiliation, they could have everybody spitting.
But that just wasn't good enough for these people.
The film prompted at least one audience member in the orchestra to walk out in the middle of the film during a disturbing scene in which one student, forced herself to vomit, begins to eat her own vomit as parents watch in horror.
They said there were moments of levity in the screening, some of which had nothing to do with the movie itself.
Oh, moments of levity.
What kind of levity do they have at the Comm Film Festival?
Listen to this. This is hilarious.
Laughter when people preemptively began to applaud a moment too soon.
During premieres, it's customary to clap as title cards for production companies scroll on the screen.
But some people did it too soon, and they promptly stopped upon realizing the mistake.
What levity with these?
What's the level of these people?
How dare you tell me that I have to spit into a container to have a PCR test after everybody else in the world has been having things ramrodded up their noses?
And then for them, the levity is that somebody clapped at an inappropriate time and the title's running through.
And yet, they applaud the vomit.
That is the elitist, these cultural elites in a nutshell, isn't it?
The FDA, by the way, has now cleared the first study of CRISPR gene editing in human patients.
Typically, it's done in a test tube.
That's called in vitro, right?
And now they've approved it from the FDA. To edit your genes in vivo.
In the living organism.
In the living human.
They're going to...
Because you understand the way CRISPR works.
It's not the way... But you typically think of it because of Jurassic Park and that little cartoon thing at the beginning, you know, where it looks, they kind of depict it as a surgical thing.
They don't have surgical tools that can cut and splice the genetics.
Instead, what they do is they load it up on a carrier, and then that carrier, when it comes in proximity to what it wants to edit, it makes those changes.
And it is not exactly precise, as a matter of fact.
I've talked about CRISPR in the past.
People who have been using it for animal husbandry in Texas, for example, in the cattle industry, said, don't think of it as a scalpel.
It's more like a chainsaw.
And so it might break some stuff.
It might put some of the stuff in the wrong area.
But hey, it's a way that they can do genetic modification.
And so, you know, you will be the Petri dish in all of this.
The FDA began testing a drug that uses CRISPR gene editing in vivo, which means within the organism, rather than something like a Petri dish.
It's the first time the FDA has approved such testing.
Well, in a sense.
They allowed the mRNA modification of your body and possibly your genes as well.
Certainly is a possibility.
They said, well, no, the mRNA only copies DNA. It doesn't alter it.
Well, but if it doesn't copy it correctly, it alters it.
But then at the same time, we had Thomas Jefferson University College at the same time they were saying that.
I said, oh, look, we just edited DNA with mRNA.
So it can be done accidentally or intentionally, but that doesn't count because, you know, with the FDA approving it, because mRNA was not CRISPR. It was a different type of thing, even though it may modify your DNA. In the case of this drug from Intelia, the edited media finds its way to the liver rather than being injected there.
Well, isn't that nice?
Isn't that special? Advantages are huge if the drug could be proven to work well.
It could potentially open up the class of drugs to lower and middle class people who are uninsured.
It's all philanthropic, you see.
They're not looking to do this to make any kind of massive profits, I'm sure.
You know, being the pharmaceutical industry.
Other Western countries have already approved several and even many in vivo CRISPR treatments, such as New Zealand, the Netherlands, Sweden, the UK, and France.
And so, from Petri dish to your, or you become the Petri dish, to what is on your table, we have Gene edited CRISPR salads.
Are now coming to American and Canadian restaurants, because this has now also been proved by the captive regulatory agencies of the U.S. government.
Are we going to use CRISPR with this?
I guess they already did, but is it for a crispier salad?
No, it is something that is a very important problem that needs to be solved.
According to the people who did this in Durham, North Carolina, they said, we set out to solve an important problem.
Most lettuce isn't very nutritious.
Oh. And other types of grains are too bitter or too hard to eat.
So what are they going to do? Are they going to cross the lettuce with some bacon?
Using CRISPR? They said, we did it!
And a quarter of the time...
That it would take us to do traditional breeding methods.
How about that? So now you've got a warp speed brand salad.
That's what they should call it, I think.
You could have a whole line of genetically modified food.
Wonderful because they were able to custom integrate this stuff and do it really fast.
And you just call it warp speed salads.
The thing about genetic modification, of course...
Is that you could mix that with bacon.
Because genetic modification means that you can mix...
Not only... You don't have to have something that is the same specie or whatever.
You can mix different kingdoms.
You can mix the animal kingdom with the plant kingdom.
So we can take a look at what they're going to do with that.
But getting back to Hollywood...
Mel Gibson's younger brother trashes Mel over his alleged anti-Semitism.
He said that got him blacklisted in Hollywood.
His younger brother is Donald Gibson.
No D. Donald. He blames his older brother Mel for being blacklisted in Hollywood.
He said we used to be really close.
He's his older brother.
Mel is his older brother. He said we had an unassailable bond.
But then... He flipped it on his head when he did that controversial Jesus flick, says Radar Online.
Oh, really? The Passion of the Christ was the reason that their family was torn apart.
I seem to remember Jesus saying something about being a sword and turning brother against brother.
Yeah, that's right. Yeah.
Yeah, it's a fulfilled prophecy.
We've seen it many times.
No, but why would he be so upset about that?
Well, he got upset because Hollywood got upset about it, and he said that caused him to be blacklisted.
He started talking about it because Gibson is getting ready to do a sequel to it.
So, yeah, that's the thing.
We're all eagerly waiting the sequel to the resurrection.
I can imagine Hollywood's not eager for that one, though.
They'd like to kick that can down the road, I guess.
The original film made over $600 million, making it the biggest faith-based film at its release.
By the way, it was the most profitable R-rated film.
I said for the longest time, Hollywood doesn't like to do family films, even though they make a tremendous amount of money.
They'd much rather do something that was R-rated.
Well, you know, this was R-rated because of the violence, but made a lot of money for them.
And so, this is the way Radar Online characterizes the passion of the Christ.
It covered the last 12 hours of Jesus' life and was heavily criticized for its depiction of Jewish people.
Hmm. Well, Jesus was Jewish.
All of his disciples were Jewish.
All the apostles were Jewish.
Everybody in the movie was Jewish.
The good guys and the bad guys were all Jewish.
He said, people blacklisted him, he said, for the sins of my brother.
What sins? Again, these people took exception to it.
Still in Hollywood, Owen Wilson's L.A. home was burglarized by a homeless man he'd previously, just a year ago, called the police as Tesla was stripped of its rims and tires while parked outside of his house for the night.
And then he comes home, well actually his personal assistant came home, and found that a homeless man had broken into the house and was wearing a pair of the actor's pajamas.
That reminds me of the Groucho line.
I once shot an elephant in my pajamas.
How it got in my pajamas, I'll never know.
That did not happen at this point.
Fortunately, they did not shoot the homeless man.
Scientists are preparing to launch a wooden satellite.
This could be huge, or maybe not.
They said it would be a sustainability breakthrough.
Well, you're going to have to cut a tree down in order to do this.
What are they talking about? Besides, isn't there any concern at all about the emissions when you shoot rockets into the sky?
Well, you just look the other way, you know, when Elon Musk does it.
I mean, that was a big rocket that he fired off the other day.
So big that it tore up the launch pad, created this gigantic crater.
Send all kinds of rock and debris into a nearby town that, well, nearby is several miles away.
So, I don't know.
There's a lot of emissions that happen with that.
There's a lot of fuel. That goes up in smoke.
What about the fuel economy and the emissions?
A sustainability breakthrough.
Oh, we'll make it green by making the payload wooden or something.
Yeah, okay. Wood might just be a durable in-orbit material, they said.
And they did find that it was.
They found a winning type of wood, magnolia.
Seems like there was a movie called Steel Magnolia, but that's not the kind of magnolia they're talking about here.
No decomposition, no deformation, such as cracking, warping, peeling, or surface damage.
Yeah, that's right. God created a remarkably light and strong building material, and they don't have to worry about termites in space.
Hopefully. That'd be kind of a...
Like most other spacecraft, when satellites die, they turn into very expensive trash, and when the dying satellites fall back into the Earth's atmosphere, they burn aluminum.
Well, in this particular case, I guess the re-entry will be taken care of.
Although the EPA doesn't like us burning wood either, so we'd have to get their approval.
Religious broadcasters in California are trying to reverse a hate speech law.
The National Religious Broadcasters joined a lawsuit seeking to block a California law that requires social media companies to publish their policies on removing hate speech from their platforms.
And so the president of the National Religious Broadcasters Organization said in an environment where much religious viewpoint expression is considered to be controversial speech or hate speech, NRB is acting to stop the weaponization of new laws against Christian communications.
Newsom said California will not stand by as social media is weaponized to spread hate and disinformation.
No, he thinks that free speech is a weapon.
It is a weapon against him.
He doesn't like his narrative questioned.
He doesn't like his narrative being debunked.
And so that's what the censors are always about.
I like the quote from RFK Jr., Who said there's never been a time in history where the people stopping and censoring speech were the good guys.
And it still isn't.
The NRB said this law affects its members by having their speech suppressed, adding that by having to comply with the statute, members would become agents of the state for First Amendment suppression.
As a social media, companies are already deputized as well.
They want you to censor yourself.
This is pure totalitarianism.
Self-censorship.
This is why I absolutely refuse to even put any stuff up on YouTube.
I am not going to censor myself.
I'm not going to try to talk about the jab in terms of euphemisms and say, oh, you know, the thing, the thing.
I'm not going to talk about that.
I'm not going to censor myself.
This is something that the NRB is unwilling to allow, they said.
And, of course, the group that was pushing this was the Defamation League.
They call themselves the Anti-Defamation League, but that's something that Musk got right.
They are the Defamation League.
They advocated for this law.
They advocate for hate speech laws because they hate speech, because they're anti-free speech, pro-defamation.
I talked about this the other day, the fact that it's now in the archives, how the ADL used spies and agent provocateurs against the John Birch Society because they didn't like them politically, because the ADL was first and foremost Marxists, and they used anti-Semitism as a beard, as a shield.
We're going to talk about RFK. And I got a couple of clips of this back and forth that he had with the vaccine.
But he also went to the Bitcoin community and talked to them.
We just had Bitcoin Pizza Day 2023.
That's where... People get together and talk about the first time there was ever an exchange, the first time anybody ever bought anything with Bitcoin.
That exchange involved 10,000 Bitcoins that were worth, at the time, $41.
And that was in 2010, 13 years ago.
Those 10,000 Bitcoin, then worth $41, are today...
At $268 million.
So he got two pizzas from a local restaurant in Florida.
Paid 10,000 Bitcoin for that, $41 at the time.
Now it's worth $268 million.
It's kind of interesting if you break it down by the ingredients.
The pepperoni was worth $6.5 million.
The bacon $3.8 million.
The Italian sausage $2.5 million.
Onions $640,000.
Green peppers $960,000.
Mushrooms $1.6 million.
I don't know why they included different prices for the toppings.
Usually it's one fixed price.
Black olives, $3.2 million.
Cheese, $19.4 million.
Total cost of ingredients, $39 million.
But of course, there's two pizzas and the total amount at the time was $41 13 years ago.
Now it is worth $268.
At that time, Bitcoin was worth four-tenths of one penny.
I had to have two and a half of them to get a penny.
So I used quite a few of them, $10,000.
And the way this happened was he didn't call up a business.
He put a request out on a Bitcoin talk forum.
And he said, I'll pay 10,000 Bitcoins for a couple of pizzas.
You can make the pizza yourself and bring it to my house, or you can order it for me from a delivery place.
And so a 19-year-old university student at the time delivered it for him May 22, 2010.
He told Cointelegraph in 2018 that he sold them after that.
For a holiday, and he had never seen Bitcoin as an investment.
Well, we're about to make another exchange in the other way now, if we look at what is happening.
As I mentioned, you have Sam Altman, as opposed to Sam Friedman or the Alternative Man.
Well, the Alternative Man is still there, and he's still being celebrated by all the usual suspects.
And it's not just what he's doing with artificial intelligence.
It's also, you know, he's been a venture capitalist behind a lot of very successful companies.
And so he's very, very wealthy.
But he's not really so much interested in running any of these operations except for the AI, OpenAI, and for the WorldCoin.
And the world coin will present people with a temptation.
Give us a scan of your eye so we can identify you biometrically.
And exchange will give you a little bit of free money in this coin.
He wants to create a de facto world ID. And so, I think that it's exactly the opposite of this exchange that we saw back in 2010.
Where somebody gave 10,000 Bitcoins, which are now $68 million for two pizzas.
Now people are going to give their biometrics and jump into this World ID scheme for nothing more than a few worthless tokens.
I think it is selling your heritage of freedom for a bowl of porridge like Esau did.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
Let's talk a little bit about what is happening with pharmaceuticals and with the back and forth with RFKJ. Before we get to that, we have reports that Rashid Buttar, Who is one of the doctors, he's an osteopath, but he's one of the doctors who took an early lead in pushing back against these COVID lies and these vaccine lies.
And he had an interview not too long ago, just a few days before he died, actually.
They had labeled him as part of the disinformation dozen.
And he went on record to say the COVID pandemic was planned and politically motivated.
Well, yes, I believe so as well.
And I've gone on record as well.
I don't think that I'm in danger of this.
They have a higher profile than I am.
They've managed to banish me to the outer edges of the internet.
Helped along by the guy that I used to work for.
Nevertheless, he claimed that everyone who has had the vaccine would be dead by 2025.
I would not say that.
I would not say that simply because I don't want people to be scared.
But I think the dosages varied too much to be able to say that with any certainty.
Because as I've said before, they varied from 3 to 100.
I think it was micrograms.
I'm not sure of the unit.
But, you know, it varies that much.
And when they looked at it by lot number, they saw the people who were passing out and having immediate problems, dying immediately within 48 hours, got the higher dosages.
We don't know what the lower dosages are going to be.
And of course, typically, with a vaccine, we've seen that it takes a while for these things to manifest themselves.
It's one of the reasons why the vaccine industry has been able to get away with plausible deniability.
Well, you got vaccinated a couple of years ago.
How can you say it was the vaccine that did this to you?
Anyway, he's now died just days after claiming that he'd been given a poison containing, quote, 200 times of what was in the vaccine.
His cause of death has not been made public, nor has reason that he recently spent time in intensive care.
But earlier this month, he did an interview, and he was emaciated.
He said he went through a very difficult personal health challenge a few months ago, and he said at that time, I had been poisoned with 200 times the amount of what was in the vaccines.
He said, I've said publicly that you would have to shoot me in the head with lead, in other words, a bullet, because I'm never going to take the vaccine.
So I believe I was poisoned, and that it was right after the CNN interview.
The CNN interview that he refers to took place a year ago.
And so, again, there's no clear evidence as to what is happening.
Before COVID, he was also...
Tackling the medical establishment head-on, talking about treatment of autism and cancer patients, cancer patients with hydrogen peroxide.
So he has, this is not his first rodeo, with the quote-unquote health experts.
But I want to talk a little bit about how they are whitewashing this now.
We've got Dr.
Yadin has come out publicly and said why he never believed that it was a pandemic.
We've had Neil Gorsuch, who was leading the anti-lockdown, anti-medical martial law coalition in the Supreme Court, come out with a decision.
And he used that decision to just rail against all these totalitarian policies that were there.
And Jeffrey Tucker of the Brownstone Institute is talking about a report that has just been filed by the Rockefeller Foundation and the Koch Brothers Foundation.
And he says, it is a complete whitewash.
He said, take a look at where we are at this point in time.
Kids are two years behind in education.
Inflation still rages.
White-collar jobs are disappearing.
Thanks to the reversal of Fed policy, household finances are in wreck.
The medical industry is in upheaval.
Trust in government has never been lower.
Major media are also discredited.
Young people are dying at levels never seen before.
Populations are still on the move from lockdown states to where it is less likely.
Surveillance is everywhere, and so is political persecution.
Public health is a disastrous state with substance abuse and obesity at all new records.
Each one of these, and many more besides, are continued fallout from pandemic response that began when?
March of 2020, as always said.
And yet, here we are, and he said 38 months later, we still don't have any honesty or truth about the experience.
And although he doesn't go directly after Trump, I will.
Because I can't understand why with that long litany of what happened to us with all the lockdown and the mask mandates and all the rest of the stuff, the war speed vaccine, yes, it was Biden who mandated it, but I said at the time that Trump would find a way to coerce it through corporations.
And I'm absolutely convinced he would have done the same thing.
But they were a tag team match.
They were two sides of the same coin, and yet MAGA, as much as they hate all this stuff that happened, They cannot and will not connect it to the guy who produced it.
Why is that? Why is that?
What kind of derangement syndrome is that?
That's what they accuse the people who don't worship Trump.
They say, you've got Trump derangement syndrome.
No, you've got a derangement syndrome.
I've got a Trump anger problem.
That's what I've got. I can't get over my anger with that guy.
And with the people who follow him, Because they see him like some cult leader.
That is Kool-Aid.
Absolutely. Everyone in a position of influence knows the rules.
You don't talk about the lockdowns.
First rule of Trump club, right?
Yeah. You don't talk about the lockdowns.
You don't talk about the mask mandates.
You don't talk about the vaccine mandates.
That were damaging and led to millions of professional upheavals.
Oh, by the way, you also don't talk about the ventilator deaths either.
He doesn't mention that. That was another one of the pet projects of Donald Trump.
The ventilators were completely him.
He pushed it, pushed it hard, and then it disappeared.
I don't think Biden was ever involved with the ventilator stuff.
Anyway, from 2020 to 2022...
We were their experiment.
That's right. As Jeffrey Tucker said, it was a coup d'etat.
They replaced representative democracy and republics with quasi-martial law.
That's his term. I was attacked by the Defamation League.
They call themselves the ADL. And, you know, the latter part of March.
Wasn't even two weeks.
I didn't even wait for the two weeks to flatten the curve.
I said from the very beginning, this is medical martial law.
And it is. He says, quasi-martial law.
It was medical martial law.
That was the excuse. I said it when it started.
We were supposed to lay the groundwork for a national COVID commission, says this report.
He's quoting the report.
The COVID crisis group formed at the beginning of 2021, one year into the pandemic, we thought the U.S. government would soon create or facilitate a commission to study the biggest global crisis so far in the 21st century.
But it has not.
And Jeffrey Tucker said, that's true, it hasn't.
Why is there no national COVID commission?
He said, you know why?
Because they could never get away with it.
Not with a legions of experts and passionate citizens who wouldn't tolerate a cover-up.
Like the Warren report, right?
About the JFK assassination.
We've seen this rodeo before.
And I think that would only exacerbate the anger and the distrust of this stuff.
And he's right. They couldn't get away with it.
Instead, what they did was they have the COVID crisis group.
With funding from Rockefeller and Charles Koch Foundations and slapped together this report, despite being celebrated as being a definitive report.
Who said that?
The New York Times, Washington Post, of course.
Despite that, it mostly has no impact at all.
Because nobody really wants to talk about this stuff either.
That's the other part of it. It's not just a whitewash from the people who did it, but the people to whom it was done.
Are so caught up in Trump's 2020 vote count that they don't care about anything else.
It's just amazing.
Trump's agenda of his own personal vendetta and his wounded narcissism has become their agenda.
His followers, his cult followers, all they care about is the 2020 election.
I think they care more about that than they do the 2024 election.
They're not interested in talking about issues.
You engage any of these people, and all they want to do, well, you know that 2020 election, oh, that, wow.
It begins with a bang, the report does, and to denounce its U.S. policy response, they said, our institutions did not meet the moment.
They did not have adequate practical strategies or capabilities to prevent, to warn, to defend.
Mistakes were made, right?
No crimes. Mistakes were made.
No crimes are committed. They said, of course, the upshot of this is not to criticize what Justice Neil Gorsuch calls the greatest intrusions on civil liberty and peacetime history of this country.
These are hardly mentioned at all in the report.
Instead, they conclude the U.S. should have surveilled more, locked down sooner.
They said, we believe that on January the 28th, the U.S. government should have started mobilizing for a possible COVID war.
There wasn't a single death.
January the 28th, you had three or four people that they claimed had died from COVID in China.
Out of how many billions of people there?
Had four, right?
But that's what they're saying.
The takeaway from all this, we should have done this harder and sooner.
That's what the Rockefeller Foundation, the Koch brothers, wanted to tell you.
They said, we need more of a centralized response.
So that rogue states like North Dakota and Florida could not evade the centralized authoritarian dictators next time.
That's what they're putting in here.
We have more control.
Now, we better rip out by the roots the stuff that was put in in 2001, the Model State Health Emergency Powers Act.
That legislative agenda that was enacted to varying degrees in different states, that has to be ripped out by the roots at the state level.
But instead, it's being left there to metastasize while the World Health Organization is extending its tentacles to do even more the next time and to do it even more centrally, central control.
And I imagine that's what these people are implicitly pointing to.
Something like the World Health Organization to tell us when there is a pandemic and what we must do.
A world dictatorship.
Yeah, next time we need more situational awareness, he says.
That means more surveillance. He said, some words that never appear in the text.
Sweden, ivermectin, ventilators, remdesivir, myocarditis.
They don't even talk about those things.
Never appear in the text.
Jeffrey Tucker says, at some point in the future, Fauci will be scapegoated for the whole disaster.
He will be assigned to take the fall for what is really the failure of the national security arm of the administrative bureaucracy, which, in fact, took charge of all rulemaking from when?
March the 13th, 2020.
Jeffrey Tucker got it right.
That's when it was. Onward.
Along with their intellectual cheerleaders, the public health people were just there to provide cover.
That was Jeffrey Tucker at the Brownstone Institute.
And that's the thing that's bothered me so much.
We look at Rand Paul, and he's focused on Fauci, focused on the origins of the so-called pandemic, right?
Where did this come from? Was it weaponized?
Did it leak out of the lab and all the rest of this stuff?
All this backwards-looking, the 2020 election, the biolab narrative, all the rest of this stuff.
And then personalizing this for Fauci.
Fauci deserves a lot of blame, of course.
He was the director of this, as I said.
Trump was the producer of it.
But what is Rand Paul concerned about?
That people will be vaccine hesitant.
Yeah, you need to be a vaccine skeptic is what you need to be.
Far more than hesitant.
There is some hope with some of this, though.
You have in Kentucky, you have the attorney general, current attorney general, who's a Republican, and they have a Republican majority legislature.
They have a Democrat governor there, Bashir.
And Bashir was one of the worst governors, in my opinion, in terms of what he did.
And yet, just like with Trump, there is no connection to any of this stuff.
He is also one of the most popular governors.
He's a Democrat in a Republican state where the, you know, the attorney general, as I said, the majority of the legislature, Republican, this Democrat governor who locked everybody down extensively, especially the churches.
He is now one of the most popular governors that are out there.
So the Attorney General, current Kentucky Attorney General, Daniel Cameron, Won by a strong margin in the primaries, and now he'll take on the current governor, Andy Beshear, in Kentucky.
And he said, I know he's very popular, but here's my strategy.
We're going to focus on his record.
Oh, what a novel idea.
Maybe DeSantis should focus on Trump's record or anybody who wants to come after him.
Of course, it's not going to happen with Tim Scott.
It turned into a love festival yesterday.
Trump decided he's not going to bully Tim Scott.
He doesn't see him as a threat.
And I don't think Tim Scott sees himself as president.
I think he sees himself as a vice presidential pick.
And so he's going to play nice with Trump.
Trump's going to play nice with him.
Because if Trump starts to attack everybody this time around, it may just be an overdose of nasty.
So he's not going to do that.
Anyway, Andy Beshear. He's going to attack him on his record.
His record on denying parental rights and education and the way that he handled the so-called pandemic.
He said, I'm going to focus on what he's done and how he has failed us over the last three years.
But it's not going to be easy, says WND. The Beshear is a formidable opponent.
He routinely polls as one of the most popular governors with a 63% approval rating.
Now remember this, 63%.
I'm going to tell you some of the stuff that he did in a state where they don't like what he's saying.
He's been overruled by one judge after the other.
He's had his vetoes overruled by the state legislature, overridden, over and over again.
But he is ranked as the fifth most popular governor behind four Republican state governors.
So, he is the most popular Democrat governor.
Well, Cameron is going to run against him.
He says he sees openings in these social issues, particularly parental rights and education, his pushing of transgender ideology.
Bashir vetoed legislation March the 24th that would have banned gender reassignment surgeries on minors, surgically mutilating minors.
He vetoed that.
He vetoed prohibiting schools or requiring teachers to use preferred pronouns.
He vetoed required parental notification for a child's transition.
Yeah, kid comes home on a stretcher, presumably, all bandaged up.
What happened? Well, I didn't want to tell you, but, you know, the school talked me into mutilating myself.
Or maybe through chemicals, pills.
The GOP-controlled legislature overrode the governor's veto.
And Cameron is now, the Attorney General, is defending this legislation in court.
The governor also vetoed a bill in 2022 that barred biological males from competing in women's sports, and they overruled him on that as well, the Republican legislature.
Then during the pandemic, he went full-on against churches, shutting them down on Easter Sunday, but going further, and this is why I know about Bashir, He imposed the state's stay-at-home order.
He promised to record license plates of anyone who attended church.
And in early April, a federal appeals court ordered him to pay $270,000 in attorney's fees to individuals who sued him for infringing on their right to assemble to worship.
He also imposed a travel ban with two executive orders.
He said you can't leave the state unless you've got a valid reason.
And if you want to come back into the state, you've got to quarantine for 14 days.
It was ruled unconstitutional by a federal judge.
He also vetoed two bills that took away his ability to continue imposing a mask mandate at schools and elsewhere.
The bills nullified emergency orders that mandated masks.
And so, that's what the Republicans nullified.
These emergency orders from him to mandate masks.
He vetoed that.
They overrode his veto.
So Cameron says, time and again, we have stood up against Andy Beshear and against the overreach that he demonstrated.
He said he does not represent the values in Kentucky, and yet he is the most popular Democrat governor.
So this is the thing that just drives me crazy about politics, even more than the corrupt politicians.
It's the public's response to it and their derangement over it.
And the fact that for them, it's about a personality.
I don't know anything about Bashir.
I don't know anything about Cameron, personally.
I couldn't even pick Bashir out of a lineup, which is where he ought to be, quite frankly.
He ought to be in a lineup. But I don't know what he looks like.
And yet, these people love him, in spite of all those things that I just told you.
63% favorable rating.
The most favorable rating for any Democrat governor.
And look at what his priorities are.
And this is why I say, you know, even though I'm going to play some good stuff about RFK Jr., where does he stand on gender mutilation and all this LGBT stuff?
I mean, it's now become...
A core foundation of the Democrat Party, along with gun control and many other things like that.
So a Republican consultant said, I think the governor is the favorite.
It's going to be really hard to beat him because people don't want to disconnect this likable guy, evidently.
Maybe he's likable. They want to disconnect him from what he actually did.
So let's talk about RFK Jr.
He went on with someone who has got a show.
I've never heard of her before.
Her name is Crystal Ball.
She spells it with a K. Crystal Ball.
Yeah. And she just knows all this stuff.
She must have gotten it from her crystal ball.
Because she doesn't really...
She wants to debate RFK over vaccines and things like that.
But she doesn't have any facts to offer.
And so they got into a back and forth.
Kennedy clashed with commentator Crystal Ball about his stance on vaccines in an interview.
Where Ball spent 10 minutes cutting him off and interrupting him while he was trying to calmly explain the reason for his skepticism.
Before we get into it, though, I'm going to take a quick break and I want to respond to some of the people leaving messages.
On Rumble, Awootz, thank you very much for the tip.
I appreciate that. And again, I'll just remind you, if you want to sign up on Rumble as a regular contributor, They have waived fees for the rest of 2023.
And you get a badge or something that, you know, shows up when you're in the comment area.
Anyway, on Rumble, thank you, A. Woots.
He says, a friend's recent hire formerly worked for Moderna as a production quality control supervisor.
Consequently, he refused the shots as he states the production was so sloppy.
And then he was fired.
Sounds like it. But, you know, when you look at that, It's pretty amazing to imagine, for me, that, and I think it was Pfizer, that it varied from 3 to 100 micrograms, the active ingredient. It varied by a factor of 33.
I understand sloppy production values and things like that.
And I know that they rushed all this stuff through.
And I know that Pfizer leaned on various countries.
We had three of them in South America.
And it was a story.
Two of them went public with Brazil and Argentina.
third one did not say did not allow their name to be used because they subsequently bought the pfizer stuff after they were being blackmailed by pfizer for it you don't buy this stuff nobody's going to enter or leave your country that type of thing but pfizer was demanding that they be held harmless for any manufacturing errors any shipping errors anything like that any
In addition to being held harmless because it was a rushed experimental formula, they wanted to be even held harmless over negligence in producing it.
But when you look at this, when it varies by a factor of 33, I really have to wonder how much of that was negligence and how much of it was a controlled experiment.
Because the only thing they recorded about these vaccines was the lot number.
And that's how we had Naomi Wolf go back.
She was able to go back and look at the lots and look at the records and see what the concentrations were with these various ones.
If you're treating the world as a bunch of lab rats...
And you're going to do your experiment.
Of course, part of the experiment, part of the tests that you would do in qualifying a drug is to find out what dose is effective and what dose is safe.
Too much of anything is going to kill you, even water.
So what dose is safe?
And if you have too little of something, even if it could address the issue, Too little of it is not going to be effective.
So you have to experiment with dosages.
So were we all their lab experiment?
Perhaps. On Rockfin, Audi, MRR, Modern Retro Radio.
Thank you very much for the tip.
I appreciate that very much.
He says cognitive dissonance has never been displayed on a grander scale than Trump's current supporters.
I agree. Crystal Ball is a fake lefty.
She's 100% controlled opposition.
I used to watch her on The Rising, and she showed her true colors back then as well.
So we're going to take a quick break, and we're going to come back, and we're going to show you the true colors of Crystal Ball.
It is truly amazing.
Stay with us.
We'll be right back.
Thank you.
Decoding the mainstream propaganda.
It's the David Knight Show.
Alright, welcome back.
Let's take a look at this so-called quote-unquote interview.
Again, she wanted to debate him.
She was cutting him off.
She was interrupting him.
She was lecturing him.
Very condescending the way she talked to him.
Just unbelievably annoying.
But, you know, he kept his cool.
And so I've broken this thing down.
It was about 10 minutes that she harangued him.
But I've broken it down to three clips that are about a minute, plus or minus a little bit.
And so, the first one, she's talking about how his support for vaccines, or opposition to vaccines, I should say.
His opposition to vaccines, she said.
Is a red line for her.
Whether you want to call it vaccine skepticism or anti-vax advocacy, which has been a central part of what you've been up to for the past number of years.
For me personally, it's an issue.
And it's a real sort of red line.
What you've been up to. And I know I'm not alone in that, especially running in a Democratic primary.
There are going to be other millions of people like me who have similar concerns.
So how do you win them over?
What's your message to people who think like I do?
But just tell me where you think I got it wrong.
Well, I think you get it wrong when you draw a correlation between the rise of things like autism and the introduction of vaccines when there isn't hard scientific evidence tying those things together.
How do you know, let me ask you this, how do you know there's not hard scientific evidence?
Well, because the one major study that purported to show that was retracted and the scientists who conducted it was, you know, had to...
What you're doing...
Basically fraudulently created...
No, no, no. Hold on, hold on.
I don't want to get in a debate with you about this because you spent your life...
I just want to hit you with it and run.
Let me just tell you, I've listened to hours of interviews with you with an open mind and persuaded.
Now, maybe I'm wrong. That's possible.
Yeah, I've listened. I've got an open mind, but I'm not going to let you speak here.
And, you know, which study? What is it that you don't like about what I had to say?
Well, he went on to say, I'm not leading with my opinions.
He said, show me where I got it wrong.
But she doesn't want to. She doesn't want him to explain what he's saying.
She's got one study that she thinks has been debunked, and she doesn't want to be very specific about that.
But then this clip, she goes into this long praise about Trump.
And what a great job he did.
And what an open-minded person she is, because as a hard-left liberal, she praised Trump for his Warp Speed vaccine.
Let me give a specific question.
If there's another pandemic, in the last pandemic, former President Trump, something we gave him a lot of credit for, he launched Operation Warp Speed.
They had a whole-of-government approach.
They used the mRNA technology that was developed using, you know, U.S. taxpayer dollars to get a vaccine out to the population as quickly as possible.
How would your approach have differed?
My approach would have been a science-based approach.
Which means what? Which means a medicine-based approach, the approach that has been used for, you know, and approved for decades.
You look first at therapeutics that are off the shelf and you look at the efficacy of those.
I mean, what I would have done if I was in power then, I would have created an information grid because now we have this internet that is supposed to benefit us and has become Instead, an instrument for totalitarian control, but let's use it for something good.
Let's link all 15 million scientists, doctors, frontline physicians all over the world.
And find out what they're doing to treat this new respiratory virus.
And find out what they're saying is working and not working.
And then test that science.
And then turn it instantaneously into protocols and recommendations for other scientists.
So would a vaccine development be part of that?
Well, you know, I don't think the vaccine worked.
I think, you know, if you think it worked, then try to explain to me the countries that were unvaccinated.
Much better than our...
Many of those countries, because there are a lot of different factors in various countries.
So a lot of those countries, as you pointed out before...
Why do we have the highest death rate count in the world by far?
I think there are a lot of factors that may go into that.
One of them is the fact that we are disproportionately obese as a society.
We have the negative health outcomes that you've been talking about.
We don't go outside as much as countries, say, in Africa.
I mean, we... In Africa, they get plenty of sunlight, you know, in there.
Isn't that amazing? Isn't that amazing?
How does she get an interview with RFKJ? I don't know.
I mean, I've got some questions that I would like to ask him.
He's not going to come on my show, though.
But she said, what would you do next time we've got a pandemic here?
Trump did a great job, she says.
Well, at least she understands that it was Trump that did it.
That's something that the MAGA people don't understand.
And he said, I would try a science-based approach, which means what?
Well, you know, what she described in this long thing praising Trump was not science-based.
It was political-based.
Yeah, we took people's money and we ran this thing through and we put it out without testing it.
How did he get it out so quickly?
Crystal? Look in your crystal ball.
Well, he's told us how he got it out so quickly.
He shut down all the testing.
He shut down all the testing so nobody knew if it was safe or effective.
But we had our ideas, didn't we?
And so, you know, he said, well, I would try a science-based approach.
And what he describes here is what you would do if you really believed that it was a life-threatening emergency.
This is why I don't believe and why Dr.
Michael Yadin has also said, you know, I don't believe this.
He said, look at what they did.
If they really believed that this is an emergency...
You wouldn't have had all these leaders meeting with each other without doing extensive testing.
If they believed that this thing was as deadly as they said it was, they'd be keeping their distance from each other.
But they managed to get together and to do all these different things.
And if it was really deadly, what would you want to do?
You would want to have all hands on deck, which is what RFKJ was describing.
You'd have everybody out there saying, hey, look, I tried this, and I'm getting really good results with it.
When that did happen, we had all of the knives come out to shut these people up, to purge them, to cancel them, to kill them, whatever.
I mean, we do not want to hear that.
I don't want to hear that you got better results with vitamin D or ivermectin or HCQ and zinc.
I don't want to hear that. Shut up.
I'm going to take your job.
I'm going to cancel you in every way that I can if you say anything about it.
It's exactly the opposite of what a rational response would be to a real pandemic.
You would want to combine everybody's ideas And evaluate everybody's ideas.
Instead, it was another big tell that they wanted to lock everybody down until they had the single solution that they were going to allow and they would punish anybody who offered anything else.
That was a very big tell. But of course, it was also what they had practiced for two decades.
From the first germ game in Dark Winter.
So, yeah, we're not going to try everything.
As a matter of fact, anybody that tries anything other than our program will be punished, penalized, and kicked out.
So now here's a third one. And at this point, he finally is able to explain where she's coming from, and so she cuts him off and ends the interview.
What I believe you're doing now is you're parroting what the public health agencies have been saying, but they do not have a scientific basis for that.
And I have another book out that you should look at called Died Suddenly that goes through all the Johns Hopkins data, which is the dashboard data that everybody uses.
And shows exactly what happened.
First of all, even the vaccine, the Case Western study that is probably the largest, most recent, shows that at most the vaccine gives you a very, very small amount of protection and that after seven months you go into negative efficacy.
So if you got vaccinated, you're more likely to get sick, you're more likely to get severe illness, and you're more likely to die than if you were unvaccinated.
I have not seen that. I have seen study after study that shows the opposite.
Listen, I don't want to get bogged down in this.
Yeah, let's not get bogged down in this.
You know, my sponsors who make sure that I get plenty of coverage on YouTube, other places, they get very upset with me if I allow you to go on and talk about studies that have been widely covered.
So let's not get bogged down in that.
Republicans' confidence in scientific community plummets.
Well, the Democrats love government, as you just saw there.
And they love it because it's just like school.
You got somebody standing up there like Fauci, you know, at a podium, telling you, this is the way that it is.
This is what's going to be on the test.
Regurgitate this back to me.
Believe everything that I say.
Don't question anything.
Critical thought is not rewarded.
In schools or by these Democrat cults.
The Republicans' confidence in the scientific community has plummeted, but not their confidence in the guy who produced all this, Donald Trump, who funded it, who continued to fund everything that Andy Beshear was doing in Kentucky and everything that was being done by Newsom and by Whitmer and by Cuomo and by the Republicans like Brad Little in Idaho.
Who completely ran roughshod over his Republican legislature.
You know, you didn't have his executive orders being countermanded by Republican legislature.
Why? Because they were blinded by partisanship.
The Republican legislature in Kentucky would push back on that Democrat tyrant But the Republican legislators in Idaho would not push back on Brad Little.
And Trump kept shoveling money to all of them.
When authorities in Britain and the US took the unprecedented step of locking down the country in the spring of 2020, they assured us that they were following the science.
This was despite the fact that neither country's pandemic preparedness plan had made any mention of lockdowns as being something to follow.
You know where that came from.
It didn't come from the science.
It came from the spies.
It was the CIA that was running these germ games, along with NIH and the rest of these people.
And that was why they passed that out.
But while we're talking about medical issues here, there was something that I had not seen before until it got overruled.
And that is, in Texas, they just passed a bill to overrule...
The 10-day rule that lets hospitals take patients off of life support after 10 days if they want.
If the hospital doesn't want you there, they give you 10 days, then they pull the plug and kill you.
Now, they haven't really gotten rid of this.
They've just extended the time frame a bit.
So now instead of it being 10 days, it's 25 days.
Where did this bill originate with?
And it explains a lot of things, really, about the Bushes.
You know, their grandpappy, Prescott Bush, the father of George H. W. Bush, the grandfather of George W. Bush and Jeb Bush.
Prescott Bush was the first treasurer for Planned Parenthood when it was being run by Margaret Singer, who was a eugenicist.
And the family, even as Jeb Bush was governor in Florida, and bragging about how he had reduced public funding to Planned Parenthood, the Bush family was giving more money to Planned Parenthood privately than the state of Florida had done.
And they continued to do so.
The Bushes were never pro-life about anything.
And the most egregious example of it was what happened to Terri Schavo, who was literally executed by a probate judge because her husband, who had abandoned her, wanted that.
And even though her parents said that they would provide for her, That probate judge starved her to death.
They had people who showed up, who gave her water and other things, and the judge had them arrested.
And Jeb Bush, who was governor at the time, did nothing.
George W. Bush, who was president at the time, did nothing.
Didn't even speak about it.
And so when I saw this 10-day rule, And I thought, well, that's interesting.
Texas' bill, they called it the Futile Care Law, allows hospitals to remove patients from life support against their will after 10 days.
You know where that began? That began when George W. Bush was governor in Texas in 1999, before Terry Chavo.
He already showed what he was made of.
It empowers hospitals to withdraw a patient's life-sustaining care, such as a ventilator or dialysis machine, regardless of the patient's wishes or even whether he or she is conscious and able to communicate, you know, like Terry Shavo.
If a hospital decides to end a patient's life, the patient or his or her family have only 10 days to find a new facility for treatment.
A policy that is known as the 10-day rule.
Hospitals have no obligation to provide any procedures necessary to facilitate a patient's transfer.
And the process cannot be appealed.
They put the hospitals in charge of killing people after 10 days.
Why? For money, right?
We don't want to keep this person here.
It's going to cost us too much money.
I mean, it takes your life forever.
And reduces it down to this cold calculation, which by the way is what happened for these last three years.
I've said, and I'll say it again, not only was it medical martial law from the very beginning, but it was financially incentivized medical malpractice from the very beginning, incentivized by Trump.
Put people on these ventilators.
Well, had more people who died from bacterial pneumonia than they did from anything else.
So, anyway, what they have done now, they've extended that to 25 days.
And they have required the hospitals to do what is necessary to facilitate a patient's transfer.
And the reason that's one of the cases that was high profile in this, that helped this to get passed, Was Tinsley Lewis, a girl who had been born prematurely at Fort Worth's Cook Children's Medical Center in 2019 with a rare congenital heart defect and with lung disease.
Ten months after her birth, an ethics committee decided to kill her at the hospital.
Got to have that money.
Maybe her insurance had run out or something like that.
By taking her off of the ventilator, claiming that she had no chance of improvement.
The hospital also refused to perform a tracheostomy on her, which is standard medical practice preventing her from being transferred to a new medical center.
So she's got a breathing issue.
They're going to take her off the ventilator.
They think that'll kill her. They have to do a tracheostomy to allow her to be able to breathe while they transfer her to another hospital.
But Tinsley's mother fiercely opposed the decision to let her daughter die and released videos showing the girl awake and moving.
She successfully caught Cook County Medical Center, fought them, rather not caught them.
She fought them all the way up to the Texas Supreme Court.
And they ruled in 2021 that the hospital could not withdraw Tinsley's treatment.
Tinsley was sent home the next year, in April of 2022.
Tinsley is now four years old and has survived the medical kidnapping and the attempted murder by that hospital.
And this is a story from LifeSite News, and they point out, and LifeSite News is a Catholic site, they point out that the Texas Conference of Catholic Bishops had filed a friend of the court brief defending this law And attacking Texas' right to life for opposing it, and attacking that mother and her child.
The bishops publicly backed Cook's Children's Medical Center in its efforts to end the life of Tinsley Lewis, a move that sparked widespread outrage amongst faithful Catholics, said LifeSite News.
You're absolutely right.
right.
We'll be right back.
Thank you.
Thank you. .
And now, The David Knight Show.
Alright, welcome back.
I just want to remind you, if you are watching the program, if you like the program, please like the stream.
And there's not much that we do to try to promote this program, but that would be something that would help us a great deal, and we really would appreciate that.
Also, remind you that you can get Gerald Salenti's Excellent Trends Journal.
He publishes it every week.
It's a massive amount of information.
It's available in a magazine format online.
And, of course, it is hot-linked and very easy to navigate to find the stories that you want.
But you can save 10% off.
If you use the code KNIGHT. So keep that in mind.
And I want to mention also Occupy Peace, which is going to be this weekend in Kingston, New York.
And he's going to have several speakers there.
George, not George Whitehead, what was this?
John Whitehead. John Whitehead is going to be there.
And I have read many of his articles to you over the past.
He's a real hardcore defender of freedom.
He'll be speaking there. Dennis Kucinich will be speaking there.
Many other people will be there to try to push back against war.
We have some updates on that as well today.
And finally...
DavidKnight.gold is where you can find...
That'll take you with a link to Tony Arterman's Wise Wolf Gold.
It lets him know that you came through us.
We're going to get into some financial stuff about the debt as well as money.
But if you go to DavidKnight.gold, that's one of the best ways that you can prepare for your financial future.
If you want to prepare to protect yourself...
And to survive, making sure that you've got the basics of food and water, instructions on effective ways to build a community to help to defend yourself, civildefensemanual.com, two-volume book.
That is worth its weight in gold.
And everybody that has gotten this, that has gotten back to me, loves it.
And it is written by Jack Lawson and a lot of other people who have Special Forces people who talked about their particular specialty.
Something that I highly recommend for you, the CivilDefenseManual.com.
Let's take a look at driving.
Because as I look at how bad things have gotten in the UK, and it is just astounding, for years I've been watching one crazy thing being done to take people out of their cars in the UK after another.
And of course, Sadiq Khan, the mayor of London, has been leading this type of thing, making it more and more expensive for people to drive banning cars that have any emissions, especially...
They have ultra-low emission zones, zero emissions.
You can't come in here unless you've got an electric car.
Putting in congestion charges, which are now finding their way to New York.
All this stuff is being tested out in London, then finding its way in through New York and to California, then to the rest of the country if we don't stop it.
I mean, even things like charging people who have a diesel car more money to park it than if you had any other type of car.
That type of stuff. And so, finally, there's some pushback on some of this.
You have a conservative Tory, who's the party, a guy running for mayor, And he vows to explore plans to turn off red lights in London at night.
I mean, it's something that's just a minor adjustment to getting traffic moving smoothly.
Everything that they do is to try to obstruct people being able to drive.
So he says between 10 p.m.
and 7 a.m., let's speed up nighttime traffic.
I'll give you an example. Back in Texas, they loved toll roads.
Constantly building toll roads.
And in order to force you on the toll road, they would take the roads that in Texas, and I haven't seen this anywhere else, maybe it is somewhere else in the U.S., but Texas has this thing where they love one-way roads.
And so they'll have two to three lanes of a road that runs parallel to the interstate system that they have there.
But it will have traffic lights and that type of thing.
And so they have a one-way lane on, you know, two to three lanes going one way on one side of the interstate, two to three lanes on the other side of the interstate running that way.
And then they have this turnaround.
And so if you miss something, you've got to go a long ways to get back to wherever it was that you wanted to get.
I don't like that system, but they made it even worse when they started putting in Toll roads, because they decide that they would multiply the number of traffic lights to try to force you onto a toll road.
And I talked to a police officer who was off-duty about that, and it really bothered him.
I would drive in early in the morning.
I would drive in when I worked in Texas.
I would drive in at 4 o'clock in the morning.
There's hardly anybody else on the road.
And same thing with this police officer.
And he said, you know, why don't they at least put these things on a flashing yellow so we can go through it?
This time of night, you're sitting there at this traffic light, red light, you know, waiting for this thing to turn green.
I must admit, sometimes I didn't.
But... Anyway, not that I'm recommending that you do that.
You have to be very careful about that.
There might be a cop somewhere, and there might also be a car coming.
The issues driving late at night like that, or early in the morning like that, were the drunk drivers.
One day I was driving down a four-lane divided highway, and...
I saw these headlights coming out.
I was in the left lane. I see these headlights coming in.
They're coming faster. I was like, what is going on?
And I pulled over to the right, and it was somebody barreling along the wrong direction, thinking he was on a two-lane road.
I mean, it's just crazy stuff like that.
So anyway, but in London, the guy says he would replace red lights with amber flashing lights during those quieter times and remove the 20 mile per hour speed limit in some areas, these road calming measures that they put on, you know, speed bumps and speed limits.
He also wants to reduce traffic control measures through scrapping no right turns on red, on closed streets, things like that.
And so... He had the press come after him, clawing at him.
What's the matter with you? You're going to get rid of traffic lights?
No, I'm not going to get rid of traffic lights.
Just that little bit.
And the media comes after him with everything they've got.
He said, Sadiq Khan's transport policies to London voters appear to be irrational.
His name is Korski. He said, above all, it's hard to see how they help the environment.
They're driving motorists around the bend, and most counterintuitively, they're turning some people against environmentalism.
That's kind of like Rand Paul questioning.
We don't want to get too hard with people with these traffic rules.
Because they're going to get environmentally hesitant.
Just like Rand Paul said.
They're going to make people vaccine hesitant.
Well, I don't know.
You just call it whenever we see what these guys are doing, what Fauci is doing, what Sadiq Khan is doing.
I guess we could say that they're kind of vaccines of a type, really, right?
Well, as a vaccine, by definition, it was supposed to be something that kept you from getting something.
So I guess they're inoculating us.
Against this COVID warp speed pandemic lies.
They're inoculating us against the climate, fear, panic, and lies.
Maybe we could call them BS vaccines.
You know, we've been vaccinated against their BS. I think I've been triple dosed on this stuff.
I've been triple dosed with the COVID pandemic.
I got another dose with the warp speed stuff, another dose with the climate stuff.
That one goes way back, the climate one.
I got my BS vaccine against climate 50 years ago.
Anyway, the Labour Party is now under pressure to rule out putting these types of extra prohibitions and taxes that are metastasizing through London.
It looks like the Conservatives are so unpopular that there's going to be a big sweep for Labour.
And so the Conservative Party is coming out and saying, well, if you vote for the labor people, you know what you're going to get?
You're going to get these ultra-low emission zones.
You're going to get emission taxes.
And they're going to metastasize this throughout the UK. Because Keir Starmer, who is head of the leader of the Labor Party, has backed the idea of clean air zones in major urban areas, just like Sadiq Khan.
And, of course, they're charging people in London up to 12.5 pounds per day.
It's well over $15.
I don't know what the exchange rate is, just to go into these zones.
Some of them are completely off-limits to them, I believe.
It currently only applies to cars, vans, and lorries entering central London, but from August it will be expanded to include all the London boroughs.
The Conservative Party chairman sees an opportunity here.
Let's oppose these taxes and these prohibitions on driving.
Hmm. How about that?
When are we going to have some politicians in the United States who are going to pick up that mantle and say, I'm going to run on mobility and liberty?
I would support somebody like that.
Khan's cash grab ULEZ, ultra-low emissions zones, expansion is hugely unpopular here in London.
Is that a Conservative Party chairman?
Labor needs to rule out these unpopular moves on hard-working residents of our great cities.
So that's hopeful. Now you've got some politicians who realize that if they're caught in a rock and hard place, the Tory party, the conservatives, Turned a deaf ear to people throughout all this pandemic stuff.
They just ran roughshod over them.
They didn't care about any of that. Now they are so unpopular.
It's like, well, you know, what can we do for it?
Well, we can not put some of these oppressive measures to take away cars.
As a matter of fact, some of them are moving to stop the spread of many of these anti-traffic schemes.
Ministers have moved to stop the spread of controversial age traffic schemes by stopping them getting money from the central government.
Listen to this. The Department for Transportation in the UK has announced $200 million of new projects to promote walking and cycling.
That's what they consider to be transportation now.
We've got an idea. This is what I said about Google's smart city testbed.
The smart cities...
Their test lab that they put up in Toronto, they called it Sidewalk Labs.
And now the guy who ran that for them is now working with the New York mayor in his efforts to measure all the food, all the meat consumption of people, and to limit the amount of meat that the public institutions are going to allow people to have.
That same guy. Sidewalk Labs.
And I said, the reason they call it Sidewalk Labs is because you're going to be walking on the sidewalk.
You're not going to be riding anything.
Well, here we have, in the UK, the Department for Transportation.
200 million pounds to promote walking and cycling.
There you go. If you're lucky, you'll get a bicycle.
If not, you're just going to be walking.
And you'll be living on the sidewalk, too, most likely.
Homeless. Homeless.
It comes amid growing anger from motorists at the measures now common, which include closing streets to cars, as well as creating wider pavements and more cycle lanes, and a bid to cut traffic and pollution.
I've seen this over and over again, the place where I grew up, Tampa.
I mentioned this story before.
It was about five, six years ago.
Karen and I went back to take care of some family business.
We were driving around Tampa for a couple of days, and all these roads had been narrowed.
They call that a road diet.
They narrow the road.
They put up bicycle lanes.
They calm the road by putting up speed bumps and allowing the potholes to proliferate.
And so we were there for two or three days and finally we saw one middle-aged man riding a bicycle with all of these bike lanes everywhere where there never were bike lanes before.
And going both directions too, right?
You've got to have them on both sides of the road.
Just openly hostile to cars.
And I said, look, We should get a picture of that guy.
He is the guy that they've torn up all the roads for.
One guy. Three days riding the bicycle in downtown Tampa.
Just crazy.
Ministers are moving to stop some of this stuff.
People are getting very angry.
Some drivers say the fines for entering the zones are a cash cow.
The Daily Mail revealed that these low-traffic neighborhoods, they call them LTNs, I've delayed more than 200 ambulances reaching call-outs in the Capitol.
So people can't get any ambulance care because of these stupid things.
Well, that's just fine with these people because this is part of the depopulation agenda.
The pandemic, the climate stuff, all is.
Residents have taken to dismantling some of these obstacles and covering the cameras that police them or even setting them on fire.
I had a listener send this to me.
And he said, look at this.
They've got a way to cut down the laser.
The power companies are cutting down the trees with a laser.
He said, I can imagine that there might be some other uses for this.
Yeah. I can imagine.
This thing may be a really big seller in the UK. That is what's happening.
So there you go. You can take small trees and you can just zap them down with a laser.
And as a matter of fact, many people in London, they've had nearly 100 of these cameras destroyed.
People are starting to push back.
So the Department for Transportation...
Announced 265 new active travel schemes in 60 areas of England.
And I think the important word there is scheme.
They use it in the way that we would use plans, but I think it's more of a scheme in the way that Americans would use it.
It comes as the transport secretary, a conservative right now, admitted that the latest figures reveal that motorists who break down on smart motorways are twice as likely to be killed or seriously injured as those who are on conventional highways.
But they don't really care.
Which brings us to the Robin Hood of the road.
There's a guy who has gotten a lot of attention in Cornwall in the UK. He said, until recently, the town was pretty quiet.
But the person who wrote this story said, or Daily Mail said, as I walk the sunny streets, the place is now abuzz with a different sort of chatter.
Dramatic tales of a phantom pothole filler, a pothole vigilante, a Robin Hood of the asphalt who turns up with diggers, vans, and bags of cement and fills up potholes while the council is twiddling its thumbs.
And you know, when I saw this story, It's like, this is Brazil all over again.
If you haven't seen that wonderful film, and it is a very dark comedy, Especially when you see how much of it has come true.
It was originally done in 1984 by the American who was associated with Monty Python who did their animations, Terry Gilliam.
And the central idea of this whole thing was, this is a society that is obsessed with duck work.
Just pick something like that.
It's the MacGuffin.
The duck work. Everybody's concerned about their duck work.
And the way that they do it, like all the technology that they do in this movie, is really Rube Goldberg garbage.
And that's part of the comedy.
But they have their public works people that you call up to fix your ductwork.
And just like this pothole...
The old ducts seem old-fashioned.
On date, Central Service's new duct designs are now available in hundreds of different colours to suit your individual taste.
Hurry now, while stocks last, your nearest Central Service has shown designer colours to suit your demanding taste.
That was unexpected.
Thank you very much. Good job.
Yeah, so they're obsessed with this, right?
But the government insists that they fix your ducks.
And only the government fix your ducks, just like it is with this pothole.
And just like with this tale of this pothole, if somebody goes around and fixes the duck work on their own, then they come after that person.
And that's the central plot of Brazil.
You've got this guy who is Robert De Niro.
He plays this mechanic.
A man alone, get in, get out.
He loves to go around against the system because he worked in the system.
He got so fed up with it that he decided that he was going to go fix these things outside of the government's program.
And that's the way he was going to strike back at the system, evidently.
They treated him as a dangerous terrorist.
And a lot of people died. Eventually they come after him to kill him.
They get some of the wrong people in it.
But the bottom line is that they bring out the knives for this guy because he's repairing ductwork without a permit.
And that's what's happening in this little town in Cornwall about this pothole that was filled.
It became a national story.
They had a pothole that was so big...
It was 10 feet across and 15 inches deep.
And rather than fill the pothole, the town council came out and closed the road off and left it for months.
And so, during the distraction of the coronation of King Charles, while everybody was watching that, Somebody went out and filled the pothole, and they put in concrete, and they put in rebar, and the town council got furious about it and engaged in this investigation, tried to find out who this guy is, straight out of Brazil.
It's just amazing to see how our life has turned into this dark, dystopian comedy.
Meanwhile, the other people say, if I knew who it was, I'd buy him a pint, said a retired teacher.
For his sake, I hope they never find him.
The volunteer behind the desk in a museum, concerned that the authorities want to punish rather than to praise him.
He said, just look at the road.
We need him out in the field doing what he does best.
And so this goes back into March, the biggest pothole, again, as I said, 10 feet across, 15 inches deep.
The council blocked off the entire road, left it for several weeks, and the residents had to make a three-mile detour to get around this thing.
But then, as I say, this is England, a fortnight ago, under cover of the king's coronation, somebody quietly fixed it, apparently with reinforced steel bars and a job load of cement.
Delighted drivers were whizzing on up to Bodman's Hill and counting their lucky stars for such a brilliant community spirit.
Job done, you might think.
But no, the town council was not happy.
Then things got really rather silly.
They said, because instead of being thrilled that a good Samaritan had ticked something off of their long to-do list, the council went bananas.
Three days later, it closed the road again on health and safety grounds.
They replaced the barriers with warnings that the repairs had been completed by persons unknown without consent.
And even talked of calling the police, oh yes, and then announced that the route would now be closed until June at the earliest.
How about that? We're going to stretch it out.
This is back in March, right?
This is a pothole that is 10 feet wide and 15 feet deep, and we can't fix it for three months.
At the earliest. At the earliest.
At this point, the story went national.
Jacob Rees-Mogg, who's a conservative in London, said the bureaucratic state hates being humiliated.
So it resorts to bullying the good citizen.
Meanwhile, back in Cornwall, the road remained closed and the hunt for the phantom filler intensified.
Yeah. So this reporter went around.
And started asking people, so do you know who it is?
And they would say, Paul, who was 48, he was asked, who is he?
He says, ah, well, we can't possibly tell you.
A lot of us know or think we know, but we'll never spill the beans to anyone from outside.
Suggestions so far include everybody from farmers to builders to Cornish Piskies to Counselor Colin Martin, whose own wife suspected him.
The counselor, Colin Martin, said when I told her about it, her first reaction was, tell me this wasn't you, Colin.
And he said it wasn't because he had any concern about the potholes.
He said, no, she just knew how badly, she knew I knew how badly she wanted them filled.
But he said, I've never worked with concrete, so I'm okay.
So the next chap I came across is a very fit retiree called Jeff Barrett.
Who tells me that he biked up past the end of the road on Coronation Sunday and he saw the builder's truck at the site.
He said, I thought it was an odd day for the council to be out, but I was just happy that they were finally doing it.
So the writer says, uh-huh.
So what color was the truck that you saw?
He said, brown or gray or no, I'm sorry, I can't remember.
It was just a truck. And then he led this involvement all by himself.
Oh, definitely not, he said.
I didn't do it. And he said, neither did my wife Shelly.
It turns out that Shelly was the one, his wife, who inadvertently alerted the council to thank them for fixing the pothole.
And they wrote her back and said, this was done illegally.
And then at that point, they closed the road again.
A bit later, says the writer here, I bump into a cyclist, Hugh.
He lives just around the corner from the hole and was an eyewitness to the whole thing.
I cycled past while they were doing the work.
I saw one bloke I knew working and another just standing there not doing much at all.
I even took a picture. I was going to post it on WhatsApp to let people know the road was open.
Bingo, I thought, says the writer.
So, who was it?
A builder? A farmer? What's his name?
Oh, I'm so sorry.
I've forgotten. I've got a terrible memory.
I had a bad fall a couple of years ago.
He said, smiling. And the picture?
Oh, no, no. Of course, I can't show you that, he said, surely.
But they did a proper job.
Steel bars and concrete and all that.
They knew what they were doing, and it's perfectly safe.
So, yeah, the people are coming together in this community.
Even if they couldn't come together to fix it themselves, they come together to cover up for the person who did do it.
Things got so bad in one nearby village that a giant pothole was turned into a flower bed, planted with spring flowers, and people simply drove around it.
That's one way to mark it.
Of course, you know, it is not a penalty for local people who don't fix the roads, who don't fix the potholes.
I mean, look at the thing that Booty Gay was famous for as mayor there in South Bend, Indiana.
We're his potholes. They called him Pothole Pete.
So obviously, he would be the guy that Biden would pick to run the Department of Transportation, the guy who never fixed the potholes in his tiny town, Pete Boutier.
So the phantom filler is already a local hero, a legend of asphalt and cement, sticking two fingers up at red tape.
We will never betray him.
Never, says a woman pushing a pram.
Here's the thing. I've shown several different videos of pothole vigilantes in California and other places who get fed up with the government and it's utter contempt to do one of the few things that it has the responsibility or the authority to do.
And that is just to provide a common infrastructure for people.
They don't want to do that. No, they want to come after us individually.
So, I think it's a very interesting story, and unfortunately, it shows exactly where we are at this point in time on Rumble.
Austin, Texas, BJJ, thank you so much for that.
I appreciate that. That's very generous.
He says, David, have you ever considered doing some product sponsors?
Do you know much... On Republican Tim Scott entering the presidential race.
At this point in time, I've not looked at any of his policies.
I saw what Drudge is doing.
He's running as Mr.
Nice Guy. Again, personal stuff.
And so he said things like, you know, America is not in decline and, you know, we're doing just fine.
Seems to me like he's out of touch with a lot of things.
We've got a lot of problems that need to be solved.
And most of the problems are coming from Washington.
So if you're going to run for office in Washington, it seems like to me, I think he's simply in the race.
To become a vice presidential candidate.
I think the same thing about Nikki Haley as well.
I don't think either one of them are serious about that.
I think Chris Christie is talking about getting into the race.
He says, you know, he keeps talking about how he can take out Donald Trump, but then he comes back and he says, no, if I get in it, I'm going to get in it to win it.
I'm not going to get in to be an assassin.
But I think that will be why he gets in.
And I wish him luck in that.
Character. I mean, that's got to be one of the easiest jobs in the world, do character assassination about Trump.
But... Donald Trump has character?
Yeah. Well, he is a character.
He played one on TV, yeah.
So it ought to be pretty...
I don't know. We will talk more about Tim Scott as he comes out.
And if he comes out with any policies, we'll take a look at his policies.
But I'm not interested in...
You know, I'm not interested in the personality type of stuff.
I think it is interesting when you look at, you know, and I said this about Donald Trump when he was running.
I even did back in 2015.
When Alex started getting angry with me, I did a thing about how Donald Trump at one of his casinos kicked off a widow straight out of up, you know, from Pixar.
Had her house there, and he'd bought all these other houses.
He wanted to expand the parking lot.
She refused to do it, so he fought her for it on years, and then he went to the city government, and he got them to condemn her property for him.
Yeah, we've talked about how outrageous that is.
You had the city of New London versus Kello, I think is the Supreme Court decision.
And that was the city condemning somebody's private property in order to turn it over, not to build a road or any kind of infrastructure, but to turn it over to a private individual.
And as I said before, I don't like condemning property.
I don't like eminent domain.
I really don't like it if it's not done for something like infrastructure, if it's done for the benefit of some bigger corporation.
But that's what they did for Donald Trump there in Atlantic City.
And so he finally got her evicted.
And right after he got her evicted, He closed the casino down or sold it or whatever.
But even more so than that, it was the multiple wives and how he treated them.
Character is a big issue.
But I don't normally talk about the personal aspects of these people, unless they're out there making crazy claims like Elizabeth Warren did.
That was something that really showed her character because she was out there getting a position with, I think it was Harvard at the time, or maybe it was a different university she worked at, by pretending that she had Indian, American Indian heritage.
And that was a despicable move on her part when she got her DNA test.
It showed that she had even less Indian blood in her than the average white European in America does.
She had quite a bit less, about half the trace amount that you would find in most Americans of European origin identified as white.
They have a little bit of Indian blood in them because of the way things are in America.
The family has been here long enough.
You're going to find mixtures of different groups in your DNA. But she had half of that that everybody else did.
And I remember there was a Babylon Bee story at the time.
Making fun of that report and pulling in Hillary Clinton at the same time.
And they said, Hillary Clinton denies the fact that she is 100% lizard DNA. She said she's only 50% lizard DNA. I thought that was really funny.
I covered that.
And, you know, ADL came after me for that.
And another publication tried to get me kicked off of Twitter.
That was when Babylon Bee was just starting out.
But it was really funny. Anyway, let me get to a couple more of these comments, and then we're going to take a quick break here.
Rumble is having an issue where after a donation, it seems to be reposting the donation to come in and chat multiple times.
I don't know if it's charging for each time it goes through, says Travis.
Yeah. So every time someone posts a donation, it seems to be doing it.
So I would just be careful with donating today just in case.
I'm sure Rumble will make everything right if they have this kind of glitch.
But just on the off chance it's happening, I would be careful today.
Okay, so, you know, take a look and make sure that you don't get double charged is the only thing, you know, when you look at that.
Yeah, Aztec's BJJ's comment got posted six times, so if that was charged six times, that's a huge deal.
So just be careful of that.
Yeah, yeah. Watch out for it.
It'll be easy to correct that if that's the case.
But we have not seen that before, so I don't know what is happening with that.
Also on Rockfin, Ryan and Deb McCartney, That our friends in London suburbs already pay through the nose for transportation fees.
£4,000. Wow.
Plus for an annual train pass and too many taxes on private cars.
Wow. That is amazing.
That is amazing. Well, before we go to break, let me just finish up a little bit more.
Austex just commented.
He said it is charging.
So be very careful.
I would not donate on Rumble today.
This might be an issue just with our stream, but I assume it's site-wide if that's the case.
So, I would get in touch with Rumble immediately.
If you guys have any issues with it, let us know, and we'll do everything we can to talk with Rumble as well.
Okay. Sorry about that, folks.
We've not seen that before.
So, just a temporary glitch.
I'm sure they'll get that checked, and I'm sure that they'll make those changes there.
But, again, it's not working for donations today.
Let's just put it that way. And don't make them there, because it's going to get multiple charges.
And if you donated on Rumble, make sure that you contact them.
And get that taken care of.
I'm sure that it'll be fine by tomorrow because that's a pretty big issue to do that.
Also in the UK, you know, I showed this before, you know, the other uses for these laser things taking down poles.
Well, they've had 96 of these cameras that they set up to enforce the ultra-low emission zone tax schemes for Saticom.
96 of these machines...
Have been attacked across London.
These are more Robin Hoods here.
One person has been arrested, 42-year-old man, charged with criminal damage, handling stolen goods, as well as aiding or abetting the destruction of or damage to property valued over 5,000 pounds.
And the Sheriff of Nottingham, I'm sorry, the Metropolitan Police, have now launched a proactive operation to crack down on the attacks.
Sadiq Khan. That guy just sounds like a villain, doesn't he?
It's like the Wrath of Khan is now expanding into this Ultraloy Mission Zone expansion scheme.
It is set to force Londoners and all boroughs to pay $12.50.
Pounds per day to drive in the Capitol from August 29th if their cars don't meet certain environmental standards.
And so it's not just damaging these things.
People have been stealing the cameras.
So one man, 42, has now been arrested.
Another man, 44, has now been arrested and a second arrest.
They said a group of activists have vowed to remove every single one of the cameras with one member claiming to have taken down 34 himself.
It's producing a bit of a rebellion here.
So again, 42-year-old man, a 44-year-old man.
And yet, as all this is happening in and around London, in Scotland, these things are multiplying.
They've got police with spy cameras have captured one, are capturing 1.2 million pictures of drivers every day.
Every day. They've got a massive network of cameras in Scotland.
This is not London. This is in Scotland.
A network of 233 cameras whose locations are kept secret.
I wonder why they want to keep those locations secret.
Campaigners said that it proved that Scottish motorists are now among the most spied upon in the world.
The extremely high-resolution automated numerical plate reader cameras capture an image of the car, which includes a registration plate and the driver.
And they have the number of images that they have currently stored is 442 million images, and they're collecting them now at the rate of one and a quarter million a day.
Police Scotland have refused to provide even an approximate list of locations, such as a general postcode area.
They said to do so would be a breach of, quote, National security and defense.
There you go. We used to say patriotism, the expression was patriotism, is the last refuge of a scoundrel.
Well, you know what the first refuge of a scoundrel is nowadays?
National security. It's all about national security.
It's all about defense. How is that about national security and defense taking pictures of people so that you can hand them out tickets?
That's what that's really about. They're not looking for terrorists.
Give us a break.
We know exactly what these people are up to.
We'll be right back. You're
You're listening to The David Knight Show.
The David Knight Show.
what is happening with money.
We have Janet Yellen saying she expects a lot more bank mergers will be necessary.
That's her term. Necessary.
Again, the consolidation of the big banks as they keep getting bigger and bigger, this has been a big part of the problems in the 21st century.
It began with the consolidation, as I've said many times before, Nations Bank and Bank of America.
During the Clinton administration, somebody who was very connected to the banking industry in North Carolina pushed that through.
They had a consolidation. They wound up with a handful of too-big-to-fail banks.
They did other things like allowing the banks to engage banks And speculative activity that all those chickens came home to roost about 10 years after that in the mid-2000s.
And so now they're saying we're going to have to have more consolidation of the banking industry.
They want to have just a couple.
They want to get rid of all the small and medium-sized banks because these banks that are too big, let's just leave it at that.
Too big to jail, too big to fail.
No, they're just too big. And they want this oligarchy Well, of course they do.
That's just their base doesn't like monopolistic stuff, they say.
Who knows?
They've switched on war and peace.
They've switched on free speech.
They used to be core values, the progressives.
They're not anymore.
But the core values of the Clintons and of the Obamas and of the Bidens have always been consolidation of the banking industry.
As Brian Shulhavi points out at vaccineimpact.com, he said each day I'm reading new reports about just how disastrous this could be, especially because big tech is mostly just moving money around right now, trying to buy in on the artificial intelligence fad.
He said this is what Goldman's sales and trading desk is saying regarding how long it'll take to start seeing benefits from investments in chat AI. Goldman says, while we are big AI and chat GPT enthusiasts ourselves, we tend to be skeptic of significant productivity gains on short time horizons of any new technology.
Even if the new technology can benefit, it should take at least a decade to start having a meaningful impact on a large economy.
Do you think people are going to have the patience for that in this get-rich-quick Wall Street culture?
Let's wait for a decade for this stuff to happen.
I think they're going to look at this and they're going to say, you know, we've been fooled by this two or three times before.
And I think from the financial standpoint, that's the big risk for artificial intelligence.
Far and away, you know, regardless of whether there is anything there technologically, financially, they are creating a massive bubble that could easily be burst because it doesn't produce what they expect.
Meanwhile, Samsung has signed up with the South Korean government to assist South Korea in rolling out central bank digital currencies.
Everybody is jockeying for a place to the table.
They call that stakeholders, right?
Everybody wants to be in on this big game, and the biggest corporations are very happy to partner or to be the deputy of these authoritarians.
A veritable business behemoth, Samsung.
They have things as diverse as shipbuilding, insurance, and of course the Android phones.
Samsung is not a local company, even to South Korea, but a true global phenomenon in terms of the sheer size of its business interest.
So when this particular conglomerate speaks, it's worth listening, says Reclaim the Net.
This time, Samsung has spoken about central bank digital currencies as part of the super powerful and rich global elites.
Nobody should be shocked to learn that Samsung likes the idea.
In fact, they've pledged to help South Korea's government with other offline CBDC payments.
A memorandum of understanding was concluded mid-April, and the latest memorandum It's aimed at testing South Korea's CBDC's potential to conduct payments With near-field communication on Samsung mobile devices instead of the Internet.
And, of course, Apple has been working and pushing this thing for a very long time.
Amazon, you know, Palm Readers payments and things like that.
So all the tech companies are partnering with the government to try to push this through.
And that may be one place where you will see the applications of artificial intelligence running out pretty rapidly.
Meanwhile, in Russia, they're going in a different direction.
The Russian government is encouraging people to ditch their dollars for gold.
And so they're doing some of the things that we've seen in some of the states here, where they say, well, we're not going to have a sales tax if you buy gold.
We're going to treat it not as a commodity to be taxed, but we're going to treat it as currency.
And so we've had several U.S. states that have done that, but now Russia is doing that.
They're going to let people buy gold ingots of up to 20 grams.
That's just under an ounce.
One ounce is 28 grams.
It can now be purchased on the Moscow Mint website.
And they're also going to sell 50 grams, which would be just under 2 ounces as well.
From April 1st, the country's banks have been allowed to sell gold bars to individuals with no value-added tax.
Again, taking away that sales tax turns it into something that is a real currency.
Meanwhile, Biden at the G7 refused...
To accept any kind of a debt deal from the Republicans back home if they're going to try to protect crypto traders because Biden hates it with a passion.
Why? Well, because it is competition to their one way, right?
They hate, to them, crypto is to CBDC what ivermectin was to the Trump shots.
It's just that simple. You can't have another way of doing this.
We've got to channel everybody into it.
Or you can also say, it's the same as internal combustion engines are to their electric cars.
They've got to have one way to control everybody in every aspect of our lives.
Biden expressed opposition to a debt ceiling agreement with Republican leaders that would benefit crypto traders.
And so he said, I'm not going to agree to a deal that protects wealth tax cheats and crypto traders.
Well, what does he mean by that?
Well, they have something they call crypto tax loss harvesting.
It doesn't sound any different to me than what people do for stocks and other things like that.
And it isn't.
They have that same mechanism for stocks and other assets.
You sell a cryptocurrency to loss to offset a capital gain from crypto profits.
It seems perfectly normal.
People do that kind of stuff with all kinds of assets.
To claim the loss, the assets must be sold and the proceeds must be used to purchase a similar asset within 30 days before or after the sale.
But, of course, they allow that for stocks and many other assets, but not for crypto.
He says, we're not going to do that for crypto.
Along with ending the tax loss harvesting for crypto, the White House pitched Republicans a similar proposal that would bar investors from deferring taxes on real estate swaps, just like that.
So we don't want you owning real estate, and we don't want you owning crypto, because we're going to take over the money supply.
And we're also going to take over all the housing and real estate as well, right?
That's the plan. So the charges...
Would have added about $40 billion in tax revenue.
Sorry, not charges, changes.
Would have added $40 billion in tax revenue for the U.S. government.
So, yeah, hey, let's...
We need to have that additional $40 billion when we have $31,000 billion in debt.
They're really pitching pennies, aren't they?
They just discovered another $3 billion by playing an accounting trick so they can give that money to Ukraine.
And, you know, $40 billion would keep Ukraine going for another couple of months.
So, you know, we've got to squeeze all those pennies that we can for this stuff because we've got to increase the war spending by all means.
So RFK Jr., Was at Bitcoin 2023, as I said, you know, they set it up around this time because that was when the first Bitcoin transaction to purchase anything that was recorded, the pizza, that in today's amount would be $260 million, as I pointed out. So they set up their conventions, the Bitcoin convention in 2023, and RFK Jr.
spoke there. He said, as president, I will make sure that your right to hold and use Bitcoin is inviolable.
I am an ardent defender and lifelong defender of civil liberties.
Well, except for the free speech episode that he had, I guess.
And Bitcoin is both an exercise and a guarantee of those freedoms.
He told the crowd that he was first inspired by Bitcoin as being a critical freedom technology.
After he learned how it was used to circumvent financial restrictions during the Canadian trucker protests last year.
He said none of these lawful and peaceful protesters had violated any law.
But suddenly they found that they could not access their money, their bank accounts, to pay for their mortgages or to feed their families.
And of course that happened to people who donated to them.
He said, when I witnessed this, this devastating use of government repression, I realized for the first time how free money is as important as free expression.
DavidKnight.gold.
We'll take you to Tony Hardeman.
Put that plug in there.
Yeah, freedom of money.
That's going to be real money.
And it's going to be something you have in your hand, in my opinion.
But, yeah, it is important for us to keep all these avenues open.
I want to have a lot of different avenues that are available to people.
As many as we can to push back against this desire, this obsession with centralizing everything and eventually centralizing the control to a global level.
Kennedy has publicly expressed his support for Bitcoin since May of 2023.
He said, first, I will defend the right of self-custody of Bitcoin and other digital assets.
Second, I will uphold the right to run a node at home.
Third, I will defend use-neutral, industry-neutral regulation of energy.
He said, Fourth, I will make sure that the U.S. remains the global hub of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, and I will reverse this government's growing hostility toward this industry.
So he is diametrically opposed to Biden and all of this government at this point in time on this issue.
Finally, he said, and this is very important, listen to this, I was happy to see this, because he's already said, That he would pardon Julian Assange.
And at Bitcoin, he talked about pardoning Ross Ulbrich.
He said he'll look closely at whether individuals like Ross Ulbrich, the founder of the darknet Bitcoin-based marketplace Silk Road, who got double lifetime sentences in 2013, he said, I'll take a close look at whether or not they were prosecuted for actual crimes or as a means to crack down on crypto.
Well, it would be the latter, because I have looked at it, long and hard.
And I've interviewed Ross's mother many times, Lynn Ulbricht, Alex Winter, who was with Keanu Reeves, and Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, did an excellent documentary.
It wasn't Bill and Ted's documentary, it was Alex's excellent documentary on Ross Ulbricht, exposing What an amazing piece of political persecution it was.
I mean, this is the level of the January 6th stuff and beyond.
Beyond. He got multiple life sentences.
They implied that he had murder for hire out there, but he was never even indicted, let alone convicted of that.
But the judge who sentenced him to consecutive life sentences treated it and referred to it as if he had been found guilty.
But he was never even indicted or charged for that.
And of course, all the stuff that was happening with that, when the FBI was investigating the site, and they had FBI agents that were, at the same time, on trial for embezzling about a million dollars, just under a million dollars, out of the Silk Road thing, and they were not allowed to tell the jury that.
So exculpatory evidence was withheld and we, again, many people tried to contact Trump about pardoning him as Trump was on his way out.
But just like he did with Julian Assange, no response whatsoever.
I felt so bad for Len Ulbricht at the time.
And still do.
It's a horrific thing.
So, you know, again, good for him for looking at these injustices, for pointing them out to people.
It is a political persecution.
Good for him. It's been totally ignored by Trump and everybody else for the most part.
So he said, I will consider pardoning them and will act very quickly to do so.
And I believe that he would.
I believe his promises.
It's just the things that he hasn't spoken about or clarified that really concern me about our KJ. At Bitcoin 2023, he clarified that he has not personally invested in Bitcoin.
He announced, though, that his presidential campaign will be the first in history to accept donations via the Lightning Network.
It's the first time we've ever had a campaign that will accept cryptocurrency.
He said, again, he was sold on it when he saw what was happening in Canada.
And, of course, who was the person who did that?
Chrystia Freeland. The World Economic Forum deputy, who was also at Bilderberg this last weekend.
So she's the elite of the elite.
He said Bitcoin with this decentralized structure could prevent governments from manipulating financial systems to repress speech and, of course, everything else.
And that's why they are hell-bent on doing it.
He said, as president, I will make sure that your right to hold and use Bitcoin is inviolable.
Well, that's good. I would like to ask RFKJ if I had an opportunity.
Does that also apply to guns?
We have the right to keep and bear Bitcoin.
Do we have the right to keep and bear guns?
Because both of them are for our self-defense against a tyrannical government, right?
He said, Bitcoin is not a security.
It should not be regulated by the Security and Exchange Commission as such.
And then he talked about the environmental aspect, which is going to be the way that they attack it.
As I pointed out, in March of last year, when Biden began his all-of-government approach to completely restructure our financial system, we're going to have four different areas.
One of them is, how do we completely restructure the financial system?
The second one was, how is the Department of Justice going to force this on people and enforce it?
Of course, he had to have somebody who was going to the technology people going to put it together.
But the fourth leg of that was environmentalism.
And they were going to make the case that we could not have crypto.
We could not have, importantly, proof of stake.
And that applies to any cryptocurrency that actually has mining associated with it to keep it honest.
No, no, no. We're not going to allow rather proof of work.
Proof of stake is where we're going to go.
We have the authority.
We are the officials.
And all we have to do is prove to you that this has been okayed by the officials.
Essentially to say that it's going to be a fiat currency.
Rather than the reason they use the term mining for proof of work is because they want to show that we're going to keep this thing honest.
Just like you've got a mine gold.
You can always mine more gold.
But, you know, there's a labor cost involved in that to keep it honest, to keep it from just being arbitrarily inflated like they can do with a fiat currency.
So Kennedy, so when it comes to the environmental concerns, remember Kennedy is a big environmental guy, big climate change guy.
So where does he fall on it? If he's going to defend Bitcoin, what's he going to do about the major line of attack that Coming against Bitcoin.
You know, they pretend that their surveillance state doesn't use any power.
They pretend that artificial intelligence doesn't use any power.
They pretend that all their banking industry doesn't, anything that they like, they pretend it doesn't use any power.
And when it comes to emissions, they don't have a problem with their spy satellites or the rest of the stuff, shooting rockets up.
None of that. They don't have a problem with the war.
They don't have a problem shooting missiles and bombs.
That doesn't contribute to global warming at all.
Of course not. You'll never hear a single one of them talking about that.
You'll never see any of them wringing their hands about all the gas that was released when they blew up the pipelines to Europe.
Anyway, he said environmental concerns about Bitcoin.
He said the heavy use of electricity and Bitcoin money.
He said they're valid.
But he said Bitcoin miners could move to more environmentally friendly energy sources.
And, of course, that is being shut down by the Biden administration.
At the same time, they said, well, we can't have Bitcoin because it just uses too much energy.
And they say, all right, well, we'll do it this way or we'll do it that way.
You know, renewable energy or we'll have small nuclear reactors.
No, no, you can't have that either.
So I think we know what the real issue is.
We environmentalists, said Kennedy, We'll continue to pressure you to improve.
However, I want to make something plain.
The environmental argument should not be used as a smoke screen for an agenda to suppress Bitcoin.
And that's exactly what it is.
It's just one smoke screen after the other.
He announced that his campaign would be the first presidential campaign to use the Lightning Network, as I said before.
And as a part of this, DailyCoin points out that his views on cryptocurrency oppose those of his own party, but it aligns with Republican presidential hopeful Ron DeSantis, who has also come out in support of Bitcoin and in opposition to To CBDC. You know who's silent on all this stuff?
Yeah, Donald Trump.
Donald Trump is silent.
His silence implies very strongly where he really stands on this issue.
We'll be right back. Show, 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 a Itzcat Lee, 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 mug they buy.
Come on. These people, I tell you, well, anyway.
You're listening to The David Knight Show.
All right, welcome back.
We have a letter that has been signed by several Republican lawmakers, Congress and Senators.
They want some answers about an NIH study they conducted on trans kids.
They had, as part of that study, two suicides.
They were studying, as part of this, the title of it was A Psychosocial Functioning in Transgender Youth After Two Years of Hormones, and they examined kids between the ages of 12 and 20.
Who were going through and changing, being given cross-sex hormones, which is what Planned Parenthood wants to profit off of as well.
The study involved 240 children.
Two of them committed suicide.
That is a case fatality rate of 0.8%.
That's higher than they ever claimed after the initial amount.
That's higher than they claimed for the pandemic.
Higher than they ever claimed for flu fatalities to try to get people to take the flu shot.
0.8% of them committed suicide.
Over a dozen lawmakers, including Lauren Boebert, Marco Rubio, Rand Paul, have penned a letter to the NIH director, who is now Lawrence Tabak, During this study, they said in their letter, two young people died by suicide and 11 reported suicidal ideation.
Oh, wow. Okay. So now we're talking about 5.4% in a two-year period.
We have 30% of girls say they have suicide ideation now.
That is unprecedented. And of course, where the LGBT affects, this propaganda affects the kids the most, is with young girls.
More so even than with boys.
So they said...
The study, they said, concluding the study was a success because a cross-sex hormones had altered subjects' physical appearance and improved their psychosocial functioning.
They ignored these serious adverse events.
So, oh, great, you know, they've got, we can change somebody's physical appearance by giving them hormones at an early age.
Well, yeah, we knew that.
And with all this psycho-sexual-chemical manipulation, we only had two suicides and loving people wanting to commit suicide.
Real success, right?
North Carolina Senator Ted Budd said it was absolutely tragic.
These people are in search of an agenda, he said, and justifying an agenda, and they're not really about children's safety, as we have seen from the suicides.
Yeah, that's the way the government works now.
It worked that way with warp speed.
Republicans further note in their letter that researchers who conducted this experiment are outspoken advocates for gender intervention against children.
The Luciferian groomers and bigoted trannies, the LGBT. Were the individuals who tragically died by suicide while participating in this study, were they minors?
Asked the lawmakers. Were participants and their parents...
No, we don't do anything. Parents don't have any involvement.
They asked, were the participants and their parents given the opportunity to reconsider the consent and to withdraw from this research in light of the suicide?
Again, this is done to kids between the ages of 12 and 20.
Most of those years are minor years.
In Tampa...
A drag-on event has been canceled after DeSantis signed the new law to protect children.
I think we should start calling it drag-on instead of drag queen.
These people are like the devil.
And so after he signed this law to protect children, these drag-ons started scattering like a bunch of cockroaches.
This is a second LGBT event, Luciferian grooming bigoted trainees.
This is a second LGBT event canceled because the organizers could not guarantee that children would be protected from their inappropriate sexual conduct.
DeSantis legislation they signed on May 17th allows the state's business regulators to fine, suspend, or revoke the license of any public lodging establishment or any public food service establishment that admits a child to an adult live performance.
Oh, this is just horrible, isn't it?
Why is it? That for decades, they've had these kinds of requirements about not letting minors into bars or into strip joints.
How could those places stay in business?
How could they possibly comply with such draconian legislation to say that, okay, you can have your bar, you can have your strip joint, you can have your casino, but you can't have kids in there.
How were they able to comply with that?
And yet, the way this is presented in the media, It's always to say that if you try to protect kids from this highly sexualized environment, well, you're coming after my freedom as an adult to do whatever I want.
Yes, we are coming after your freedom as an adult to do whatever you want to kids.
Groomer. That's what this is about.
Adult live performances where minors are not allowed.
Includes anything that depicts or simulates nudity, sexual content, sexual excitement, or other sexual activities listed in the state code.
But the LGBT, the Luciferian grooming, biased, and bigoted trannies say this is coming after my freedom.
My freedom to do whatever I want to, to or with a child.
You better believe it is.
And I'm glad that DeSantis, to his credit, has doubled down on this the more they come up with criticism.
Florida has also banned destructive transgender drugs and surgeries for minors.
For minors? You want to do this to yourself as an adult?
Well, hey, it's a free country, as we used to say.
But you're not going to do it to kids.
So we'll see what happens with this next.
Meanwhile, Ted Cruz and Marsha Blackburn, who is the senator from Tennessee, are now questioning whether or not Anheuser-Busch's partnership with Dylan Mulvaney was marketing beer to minors.
Well, I don't know.
We'll look at that. But, you know, here's the thing.
We know what Target is doing.
We know what Target has been marketing to minors.
Tucking bathing suits and stuff like that.
Boycott Target. That's what I'd like to see.
They've been up to this stuff, and they've been at the tip of the spear for this for a very long time.
Target has. Kirk Cameron, by the way, has got a new book.
He's been going around saying, well, if these drag-ons are going to go into public libraries and have their You know, sexually dress up and play their sexual fantasies and use kids to do it for their sexual fantasies in libraries.
Well, we're going to, you know, I've got a book here and we're going to go around and we're going to talk about character issues and things like that to kids in libraries.
And it's gotten a lot of response.
Had some librarians try to shut him down and eventually they had to pull back Because they have to keep that open for everybody, right?
Are they censors? Well, that's what they accuse people of when you try to remove sexually explicit content away from kids.
They accuse you of being a censor, but they will censor something like Kirk Cameron's book.
And so some of them got fired for trying to do that.
And so he's been very successful in terms of putting out a positive vision for the kids.
And I think that's the great thing about these books that he's putting together.
So now he's come up with a second book.
Interesting title for it.
Pride comes before the fall.
Referencing back to Proverbs.
And yeah, it's a good thing to remind people that God hates pride.
He's been pretty clear about that.
Forever. That's one thing that he really hates is pride.
That was the key thing with Satan, right?
Anyway, on abortion, World Magazine has taken on Tommy Lauren, who is trying to defend legal abortion, saying that she supports it because she's a libertarian.
And it is absolutely absurd, her logic, if you could call it that.
I think she's trying to position herself as the blonde alternative to occasional cortex.
Conservative provocateur and Fox Nation host Tommy Lauren She has, when it comes to abortion, they said, has not only veered just to the left, but to the extreme left.
She got fired from The Blaze after she went on The View and talked about how she was pro-abortion in 2017.
And she said on The View, stay away from my guns and stay away from my body.
Well, I wonder what Tommy Lauren was saying in 2020, 2021, 2022.
Was she saying, get your masks and your laws about masks off of my body.
Get your jabs away from my body and your laws and mandates about it.
If I choose to take ivermectin as my body, my choice.
Was she saying any of that stuff?
That's the first thing that we need to ask these people who portray themselves as libertarians.
Or as pro-choice on abortion.
So, did you really walk that through?
How were you about that with the medical stuff?
Because that is not what they're talking about.
And then they say, well, yeah, but you're the hypocrite because you don't want to have the vaccine, but you want to stop people from having abortions.
Well, it's not your body.
It's somebody else that we're talking about here.
Different DNA, different fingerprints, half the time a different sex, a different gender.
There's only two. So anyway, what she had to say, she said, I'm pro-choice, not because I'm pro-abortion, not because I'm not pro-life, but because I believe in limited government.
So World Magazine says, oh really, well, you know, what about the right to not be murdered?
Declaration of Independence talks about the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
You have to have... Jefferson put life first, right?
And there's a reason, as I've pointed out many times.
Thomas Jefferson also said, the God that gave us life gave us liberty at the same time.
The hand of force can destroy but cannot disjoin them.
And so he felt that liberty was essential to life.
But also, you know, he's arguing that liberty is not less important than life.
But life is not less important than liberty.
It is a precondition to having liberty, of course.
You know, he held it to be self-evident that life was the ultimate thing.
And he was elevating liberty up to that level when he talked about that.
He was taking what many people consider to be the lesser thing and making it, elevating it up to the higher thing.
Life being the higher thing.
And so, as World Magazine says, her case for small government includes protecting innocent life in ways that heavily involve the federal government and that cost taxpayers millions of dollars.
But it doesn't extend to the government simply saying no to the murder of babies.
There's got a lot of, you know, well, here's what I would do.
I would have a government program to do this and to do that, but I wouldn't tell somebody they couldn't kill a baby.
They say the smallest government has at least one role, and that is to protect the lives of the legally innocent.
Can we not agree with that?
The God that gave us life gave us liberty at the same time, and that we are all created equal, and the reason that we have government is to protect those God-given rights, especially the right to life.
So they say this isn't a conservative or libertarian case for abortion, to say that I'm just in favor of small government.
It's just the same old, tired, incoherent, barbaric, godless argument for why it should be okay to dismember a baby.
Simply because of their size, their location, their helplessness.
Maybe their medical prognosis, which we don't know for sure.
Maybe because of their gender that was done in China.
Many people would like to do that today.
The entire foundation for the belief in limited government is the idea that it's God, not the state, who gave us our rights and who determines morality.
It is that there is a higher power whose authority transcends that of any government and has created us equally in his image, from which we derive the concept of government of by and for the people, rather than a government that tyrannically rules over us.
A true believer in limited government wouldn't look to politicians in power to decide which humans are worthy of protection against murder and which ones aren't.
That's what legal access to abortion is, the state arbitrarily deciding some humans don't have rights or value and can therefore be murdered.
This should make any conservative shudder.
And so I will say, why doesn't this make some of these so-called pro-life organizations that are calling for the government to set that determination as to when life can be taken?
Why doesn't that make them shudder?
It makes me shudder about the Family Research Council and about the Susan B. Anthony Council that they would join with Trump And Lindsey Graham and other people like him.
To say, we want this determination to be made by the federal government and we will draw that line.
And guess what? That line will be very, very quickly erased and redrawn.
If there's any line at all.
Because these people want to erase the line.
There's one thing that they have in common.
All these people. And that is a desire for depopulation.
That is born out of a hatred of humanity.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
Well, let's talk a little bit about Gorsuch and his opinions.
I referred to it briefly yesterday.
I don't think I covered it in detail.
I did do a radio program after this one.
It starts to all run together.
Actually, I did two radio programs after this one yesterday with one person and substitute on Sons of Liberty.
So Bradley Dean had me do the show yesterday.
He was traveling, going to Arizona.
He's got a couple of events in Arizona.
So if you're in Arizona, look up Bradley Dean.
But that might have been yesterday.
I'm not sure about the details of the events.
But anyway, I appreciate the opportunity to do that, especially because it's on GCN where I used to be, but I'm not anymore.
So a lot of people believe that I have disappeared.
As a matter of fact, I asked ChatGPT about myself, and they said he's a former reporter.
I guess I've passed away out of their site.
So ChatGPT is writing my obituary, essentially.
So, Gorsuch.
Let's talk about Gorsuch, what he had to say.
He lamented that it doesn't take a bayonet, but only a nudge for us to abandon the nicety of requiring laws to be adopted by our legislative representatives and to accept rule by decree.
This is part of a decision that he was, and there was a struggle.
Throughout the early part of the Trump pandemic, you had the Supreme Court with a 5-4 majority with John Roberts joining with Darth Vader Ginsburg and the rest of them to shut down everything and to go full medical martial law.
And then when she was term limited by God and we had a replacement, then the majority changed 5-4.
Neil Gorsuch, who had taken the lead, And pushing back against these arbitrary and inconsistent in terms of the way that the different people, how they were treating different businesses, how they were treating churches versus how they were treating casinos.
He was on the losing side of many of those arguments and he turned around and now he's on the winning side.
And so he was able to put out a Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court had another decision this last week.
And he went on an epic decision.
Epic rant about medical martial law.
So he said, yeah, you don't have to use a bayonet to enforce it.
They just have to nudge you.
And I think he knows exactly what he's saying.
You know, Cass Sunstein wrote a book About the psychological manipulation, behavioral psychology aspect of what they call nudge, you know, gradually pushing people.
And that's what this was a true epidemic of, behavioral psychology, weaponized behavioral psychology.
They don't need a bayonet if they've got all the mass media at their disposal and if they can censor any opposition.
He said, along the way, we will accede to the loss of many cherished civil liberties, the right to worship freely, to debate public policy without censorship, together with friends and families, or to simply leave our homes.
And so, as this article on The New American points out, he was clearly correct.
Many years ago, somebody asked, Michal, the German people could so willingly give up their civil liberties to Adolf Hitler and his National Socialists.
You know, they call themselves Socialists, by the way.
The Nazis. Well, Article 48 was what did it.
And it allowed the government to declare a temporary emergency.
Which, by the way, you know, it's not temporary.
These emergencies are not temporary.
When they take it away from you, it's not temporary.
So, since March 2020, said Neil Gorsuch, Isn't it interesting?
Everybody else is now starting to market from the time of tyranny from March 2020 from Trump's executive order to lock us down.
Very interesting. Since March 2020, we may have experienced the greatest intrusions on civil liberties in the peacetime history of our country.
Executive officials across the country issued emergency decrees on a breathtaking scale.
Governors and local leaders imposed lockdown orders, forcing people to remain in their home.
Now, he does not attack Trump for financing and incentivizing this, right?
Again, you see that California is just now bumping up against their profligate spending and their uncontrollable debt.
They spent themselves into bankruptcy just before the pandemic.
They wound up getting something like $70 billion, and they blew that cash immediately, and now they're looking at a big deficit again.
But that was all being given to Newsom by Trump.
Getting back to Gorsuch, he said, they shuttered businesses and schools, public and private.
They closed churches, even as they allowed casinos and other favored businesses to carry on.
We were told by Trump that we were not essential.
And I said then, and I have said since, that was...
Every bit as offensive, if not more so, because it was matched with actions.
As Hillary Clinton calling us despicable, Trump called us non-essential.
The small main street businesses that he killed.
They threatened violators, not just with civil penalties, but with criminal sanctions too.
They surveilled church parking lots.
They recorded license plates.
They issued notices warning that attendance and even outdoor services that satisfied all state social distancing and hygiene requirements could amount to criminal conduct.
They divided cities and neighborhoods into color-coded zones.
They forced individuals to fight for their freedoms in court on emergency timetables and then changed their color-coded schemes when defeat in court seemed imminent.
This is Neil Gorsuch.
So, Federal executive officials, he doesn't mention Trump, entered the act too.
Not just with emergency immigration decrees, they deployed a public health agency to regulate landlord-tenant relations nationwide.
That was the CDC imposing their moratorium on evictions or foreclosures.
That happened under Trump.
And it was extended, I think, two times under Trump.
And then Biden continued to extend it as well.
As I said, Trump and Biden are two sides of the same pandemic coin.
And the same coin on a lot of issues.
They use a workplace safety agency, that's Biden using OSHA, to issue a vaccine mandate for most working Americans, he said.
Many lessons can be learned from this chapter in our history, and hopefully serious efforts will be made to study it.
This is why I'm going back over it.
We need to learn lessons from this.
Well, the key lessons we need to learn Is that it ain't over until we get rid of these regulations that were put in with the Model State Health Emergency Powers Act.
Because they've left that in and they're now building on it with the World Health Organization on a global scale.
Gorsuch, a leader or an expert who claims that he can fix everything if only we do exactly as he says.
Can prove an irresistible force.
We do not need to confront a bayonet.
As I said before, we only need a nudge in that type of situation.
And isn't it interesting that we had a leader or an expert that we thought could fix everything, right?
For the left, it was Fauci.
For the right, it was Trump.
And it is still Trump for those on the right.
They still haven't learned. And it's still on the left.
They still love Fauci.
But see, it's that left, right, left, right.
The left trusts Fauci.
The right trusts Trump.
It was perfect. Perfect ploy.
He said, we may even cheer on those who ask us to disregard our normal lawmaking processes.
We may even vote for them in 2020.
We may even vote for them in 2024.
And we may, as we forfeit our personal freedoms, of course, this is not a new story.
Even the ancients warned that democracies can degenerate toward autocracy in the face of fear.
But maybe we've learned another lesson, too.
The concentration of power in the hands of so few may be efficient and sometimes popular, but it does not tend toward sound government.
However wise one person or his advisors may be, That is no substitute for the wisdom of the whole of the American people that can be tapped in a legislative process.
And that was what RFKJ was trying to explain to Crystal Ball, but she didn't want to hear it.
He said a scientific approach of this would be to look at all possible solutions.
That's really what the American experiment is about.
That's what federalism is about.
Whenever you have any situations that need to be addressed by society, you want to have 50 different approaches or however many states that you've got.
And you want to be able to consider those and look at those rather than having one solution forced on everybody from top down.
That's a rational way to have things.
That's one of the reasons why, by the way, America has been so successful compared to autocracies.
When you have a central planning agency, they don't know what's the best for people.
I've said this many times when you compare the model that the founders gave us, which unfortunately we don't follow as closely as we should anymore.
But when you have a situation of decentralized and planning and, you know, where you don't plan for the most part, but you have a lot of different approaches versus something that is planned and tightly controlled, centrally located, it can never compete with an open free market of ideas where everybody is free to try different things and see what works.
And that's what they did.
To us these last few years, because this is fundamentally at its essence.
It is totalitarianism.
It's authoritarian totalitarianism.
It's a medical martial law.
It is Marxism. It's all of those things.
Central control, a dictatorship, a medical dictatorship.
And so it'll never, it doesn't, from a scientific standpoint, but certainly from a human standpoint, that should be an abomination.
In the 1970s, said Gorsuch, Congress studied the use of emergency decrees and had observed that they can allow executive authorities to tap into extraordinary powers.
But they also saw that emergency decrees have a habit of outliving the crises that generate them.
Some federal emergency proclamations have remained in effect for years or decades.
After the emergency in question had passed.
So at the same time, Congress recognized that quick unilateral executive action is sometimes necessary.
They adopted a number of new guardrails in the National Emergencies Act.
And of course, that is also common sense.
That's why there should be a declaration of war before we get involved in a war.
But then after we have decided that war is justified...
Then we allow the President to conduct it, but we don't follow that wisdom anymore either.
Neil Gorsuch's opinion in Arizona v.
Mayorkas marks the culmination of his three-year effort to oppose the COVID regime's eradication of civil liberties, of unequal application of the law, and of political favoritism.
From the outset, he remained vigilant as public officials used the pretext of COVID. To augment their power and strip the citizens of their rights in defiance of longstanding constitutional principles.
Beginning in May 2020, the Supreme Court heard cases challenging COVID restrictions on religious attendance across the country.
But as I pointed out before, you had the liberal bloc, led by Ginsburg, Also including Breyer, Sotomayor, Kagan.
And on the conservative side, you had Justice Gorsuch, Alito, Kavanaugh, and Thomas.
But Roberts sided with the liberals, with the authoritarians.
Let's not call them liberals anymore.
They're not about liberty or anything like that.
Unelected judiciary.
Lacks the background, the competence, and the expertise to assess public health and is not accountable to the people, Roberts wrote.
So he said, we're just not going to rule on it.
We'll let the unelected judiciary, doesn't have the background or the competence or the expertise, to even talk about this unelected bureaucracy.
So we're going to let the unelected bureaucracy do whatever they want.
He begins that by saying, we're just judges and justices, and we're not elected, so we can't really get in on this.
We also don't have any background, competence, or expertise.
Well, you're not asked about public health.
You're asked about the Constitution.
That's a very different issue.
And quite frankly, if you don't have individual health and you don't have doctor-patient relationships and individual consent, you don't have public health.
You have tyranny. And if you're going to ignore the health of individuals, all that talk about public health is just a dodge.
But they want to defer to other people because they weren't elected, so they're going to defer to other unelected people.
And so the court repeatedly upheld executive orders attacking religious liberty from the Trump administration, by the way.
This is all happening during the Trump administration.
In July 2020, Trump is still there, right?
The court again split five to four and they denied a church's emergency order for injunctive relief against Nevada's COVID restrictions.
Governor Sisolak capped religious gatherings at 50 people.
The same order allowed, however, for other groups, including casinos, to hold up to 500 people.
Roberts joined with the liberal justices again and denied the motion in an unsigned reply without explanation.
So ashamed of it. They don't even want to put their name on it.
So ashamed of it.
So baseless is it, legally, constitutionally, that they don't give you any explanation.
And I remember when this happened.
I remember talking about it.
You had some people, including some of the people who had been Religious supporters of Trump, and probably still are, these people.
And they, to prove the point, said, okay, well, if casinos can meet and churches can't, let's have a church service inside of a casino.
And still, Trump did nothing.
He was just like Roberts.
Justice Gorsuch issued a one-paragraph dissent in that particular case to expose the hypocrisy.
He says, under the Nevada governor's edict, a 10-screen multiplex may host 500 moviegoers at a time.
A casino, too, may cater to hundreds of people at once, and perhaps six people huddled at each crap table.
But the governor's lockdown order imposed a 50-worshipper-limit Religious gatherings, no matter the capacity of the building, they don't care.
And if you remember, throughout all of this, we had PBS, NPR, putting out documents from the CDC and others saying, the riskiest thing you can do is go to church.
You can't discern what is really behind this.
Seriously? How could it not be any more obvious?
The First Amendment prohibits such obvious description against the exercise of religion, said Gorsuch, but there is no world in which the Constitution permits Nevada to favor Caesar's palace over Calvary Chapel.
It's just that simple.
Roberts, cowing to the interest of the public health bureaucracy, changed when Ginsburg died in September of 2020.
Following month, Barrett joined the court.
Five-four split on religious freedoms went the other way.
Gorsuch was now in the majority.
In a concurring opinion in the New York case, he again compared restrictions on secular activities and religious gatherings.
Quote, according to the governor of New York, It may be unsafe to go to church, but it is always fine to pick up another bottle of wine to shop for a new bike or to spend the afternoon exploring your distal points and meridians.
Who knew that public health would be so perfectly aligned with secular convenience?
In February 2021, Newsom prohibited indoor worship in certain areas and banned singing.
Roberts, joined by Kavanaugh and Barrett, upheld the ban on singing, but overturned the capacity limits.
Gorsuch wrote a separate opinion, joined by Thomas and Alito.
Look at that, 6-3, you can't sing.
He continued his critique of the authoritarian and irrational deprivations of America's liberty.
He wrote, Now, that was a case in February 2021, but of course, even though that's how long it took for it to get to the Supreme Court to be heard, That is a reflection not just of Newsom, but it's a reflection of everything that's put in place and financially incentivized by Trump.
So he said, if Hollywood may host a student audience or film a singing competition while not a single soul can enter California's churches, synagogues, mosques, something has gone seriously awry,
he said. And so this opinion that he had last Thursday allowed him, in the words of Zero Hedge, to review the devastating loss of liberty Americans suffered over the 1,141 days it took to flatten the curve.
And that's why I had an ongoing count.
I did it while Trump was still president.
America Held Hostage.
We began my show.
Every day while Alex is selling masks and cheering Trump and telling everybody it's 4D chess.
Don't worry, Trump's got it. You know, just do what he says.
Well, I started my show with a reference going back to the Iranian hostage taking.
Because every night it would be, America Held Hostage Day, such and such a thing, right?
And it wasn't just, you know, 40 or 50 hostages held in a foreign country.
It was all of America that was held hostage.
And so I went directly from that picture of the American hostages in Iran with the blindfolds over their faces to Trump prancing around with his presidential seal black mask.
Made me absolutely sick.
And so Matt Tybee is talking about it as well.
Looking back on the sadism Of the COVID-19 shaming campaign.
So, when you look at this, the shaming of people, how dare you say things like ask questions or do your own research?
In their article, they refer to a, I guess it's a new documentary, put together by Matt Orphalia, Nobody is Safe.
And that documentary shows Jeff Van Gundy, a basketball announcer, leaning back and saying, I don't even understand what that means.
I'm doing my own research.
Oh, well, you don't understand what that means?
You don't read? You don't do any research?
What does that look like?
Are you doing your own research?
Are you doing studies yourself?
Are you in a lab on a nightly basis?
Hey, pal, did anybody do any research on this stuff?
Did Fauci? Did Pfizer?
Did any of these people do any research?
Of course they didn't. That's the research I found.
And that's all I need to know.
I don't need to argue with them about microbiology.
I just need to know that this is a scam.
And this is snake oil, not in the sense that Stu Peters means it.
I mean, it's just ridiculous.
Anyway, how dare you read and think?
You just need to follow orders.
And so that's what Matt Taibbi is talking about.
The collective roar against asking questions or doing your own research.
Boy, that really got people upset.
Trevor Noah said, well, do your own research.
Nobody who's saying that is getting a lab and doing any tests.
Again, nobody at the FDA or the NIH or Pfizer, any of these people were doing any tests, even though they had labs.
They had announced before they ran this thing out that that was their precise intention, not to do any tests.
Just asking questions.
Said Stanford, their virality project.
That's a tactic commonly used by people who spread information.
Misinformation, I should say.
Yeah, don't ever question authority, say the liberals now.
Amazing how they turn these things upside down.
Scott Adams, at the very beginning of this, is getting harder and harder to tell these quote-unquote freedom lovers from sociopaths.
Uh-huh, yeah.
So they're disgusted at people who do their own research.
Well, how about Fauci, who keeps flip-flopping on everything?
It is, you know, just flip the coin.
At the same time, we've got this guy, this despicable character, Matt Hancock.
Who was caught violating his own lockdown dystopian orders over-the-top authoritarianism.
Of course, violating it so that he could have an adulterous...
I don't want to use the term affair.
I hate that. It's not an affair.
Let's call it an assignation, to be polite.
No affair about it.
He defied his own orders and God's law, and he was also seen, as people looked at, they saw how he was mocking people over the things that he was ordering them to do.
He's like some guy in a, you know, Simon Says.
I've referred to all this as Simon Says, but it was really Fauci Says, right, in the U.S. Fauci says do this.
Now Fauci says that. You know, Fauci says put the mask on the back of your head.
Oh, okay, I'll do that. Fine.
Fine. So, he's now coming out, by the way, and he says, I want the conservative party to stop talking about family values.
Come on. You know, you want to have a tax code?
That supports the family.
You had one individual tweet out, said, the normative family, the mother and the father sticking together for the sake of the children, is the only basis for a safe and functioning society.
Marriage is not only about you, it's a public act to live for the sake of someone else.
Well, I would not put this in terms of national patriotism.
I mean, that's the way that, you know, Stalin or Putin or Mao would present this to me.
You need to have babies so we can have a big army in the future, that type of thing.
No, it's not about that. It's about God turning the hearts of the fathers toward their children.
And now at this point, the mothers as well, because the mothers' hearts have been turned outside of the family and away from the kids.
And so for us to pull this back, God is going to have to change the hearts of both the fathers and the mothers.
But it appears that Matt Hancock has hardened his heart so much that he has nothing but contempt for an idea like this.
He said the government should not promote the traditional families and not come up with tax policies to reward and encourage and to assist the families to stay together.
He says, I don't want to hear it again.
It is so offensive. It is so wrong.
I mean, tell that to the king.
He doesn't have to have a normative family.
He doesn't have it, and he is absolutely a strong basis for society.
You're going to build your society in terms of following after King Charles?
Are you serious?
There's Al Mohler who pointed out with the coronation, he said, you know, when you look at the fact, did you realize, I didn't realize it, but Camilla is not his wife.
She is his consort.
His concubine or whatever.
She's not his wife.
And as Al Mohler pointed out, he said, do you realize that there are only two generations removed from a scandal about marriage and divorced people and so forth that disrupted the monarchy?
The very reason that King Charles is king now is because his grandfather was Charles became king when his grand-uncle, I guess you could call it, Edward, decided that he was going to marry a divorced woman.
And they said, no, you've got to choose between being king and the woman.
Well, I have to go with the woman that I love, type of thing.
So he abdicated. And then Queen Elizabeth's father became king.
And so here we are with Charles.
Who has now, as quote-unquote defender of the faith, completely rejected marriage.
And Matt Hancock, the guy who played this little Simon Says rule with everybody and mocked and laughed at people as they were following his orders, has now has nothing but contempt and scorn for what he calls the normative family.
This is a conservative party in the UK that he's associated with.
So this is the sad state of where our society is.
But before we quit, before we run out of time, I want to play for you what Michael Yadin said.
He said this is when he knew What was happening with this when this whole thing was a fraud?
And it's important for us to go back and ask people like Michael Yadin, who was there at the very beginning, how did you know that this was a fraud so early?
Thank you for joining us.
And you are a former vice president of Pfizer.
Could you just tell us very briefly about your position there?
I was, until 2011, for many years, I was responsible for worldwide research and early developments in their field of respiratory and allergy new medicines.
That was it. 200 people indirectly across a couple of sites.
So that gave you a real insight into what was happening in early 2020?
There's not very many corners of this industry I've not had some knowledge of.
And when I started noticing former colleagues of mine, including Sir Patrick Balance, saying things on the television I knew weren't true and that I knew he knew weren't true, See that?
It wasn't as technical.
He knew they weren't true, and he knew the other guy knew it wasn't true.
I would say to your listeners, that was proof, and it's still proof, of a supranational operation.
There's no way it could have happened at the local level, at the country level.
Therefore, it must have occurred at the level above.
Whether it was the WHO or the World Economic Forum or other, I don't know.
But I'm convinced that action alone absolutely proves unequivocally that we didn't just get some virus drifting in and then, oh, we all panicked.
They all did the same stupid, ineffective, no-not-to-work things at the same time, none of which were in their Countries pandemic preparedness plans because I've read them all, right?
So when I accuse these people of lying, I do it confident they're not going to sue me because I would say, come on, sue me.
I'd love to have discovery in courts.
You will lose big time.
And so they won't sue me.
What they do is smear me and censor me.
And I don't care anymore because we're facing something much worse than an alleged virus.
Yeah. At the very least, the things people have been injected with, the injuries to people from these so-called vaccines, I'm afraid, I wish I could tell you that it was accidental, but it wasn't accidental.
I've spent 32 years in rational drug design.
I know and I knew and wrote it before any of them had emergency use authorisation that they were dangerous.
And I'm afraid I'm convinced and would say, with my hand on the Bible in front of a court, a judge, that these injections have been made to injure people, to maim and kill, deliberately.
Exactly. And you heard him say at the very beginning of that, I heard these people, they were lying.
I knew they were lying.
And they knew they were lying.
That's a key part of this.
And he said, I knew it had to be coming from someone...
If he had known about the germ game simulations, Dark Winter and all the rest of this stuff, he clearly would have spotted that even sooner than he did.
That's why it's important for us to understand where this thing came from and why he is very concerned.
He says, why are they focusing on the genesis of this virus?
In my view, he said they're doing their darndest to make sure that you regard this event exactly as they want you to.
Specifically, that there was a novel virus.
He said, I'm not alone in believing that myself, at the beginning of the pandemic, over time, I've seen sufficient evidence to cast strong doubt on that idea.
This is part of a global coup d'etat.
He said, in question and answer, they would learn that the effect of the released novel pathogen could not be predicted accurately.
These people would say, well, it might burn out rapidly, or it might turn out to be a lot more lethal than we'd expected, and it might demolish advanced civilizations.
So he said those top decision-makers would, I submit, conclude that this natural risk is intolerable to them.
So instead of actually releasing a pathogen, he said this is why it's ridiculous to talk, which is what the alternative media and Rand Paul and the rest of these people are fixated on as the origin.
He says it's ridiculous.
They wouldn't do that.
They've been practicing what they're going to do in response to something like that for a long time because they intend to use that fear to lock us down.
He said, no, they would look at this and they would say, these people who crave total control.
And he said, they would look at the wide range of possible outcomes if they were actually to engineer some disease and release it.
They would say, no, we're not going to do this.
Come back with a plan that has reduced uncertainty on outcome.
And so what they come up with is a plan of pure propaganda and lies about the origin of the virus so that they can completely control us.
It's a fictional thing of no risk, but they can control us through the press.
He says, this lie is that there has ever been in circulation a novel respiratory virus, which crucially caused massive scale illness and death.
In fact, there hasn't been.
Instead, we have been told that there was a frightening novel pathogen, and they ramped up the stress-inducing fear porn to 11 and held it there.
He says this fits with all the cheating about genetic sequences, the cheating about PCR test protocols, the cheating about amplification and cycles, ignoring contaminating genetic material from not only humans and claimed viral sources, but also bacterial and fungal sources.
Why, for example, did they need to insert the sampling sticks right into your sinuses, right?
Here's what I said earlier.
It's about humiliation, degradation, fear, and lies.
That's the basis of this.
It's not even about science.
It's about behavioral science.
Thank you for listening. Have a good day.
Joe, we've got a problem.
What? 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?
Right, because basically you can't hold coffee with your hands, right?
I'm a scat and leave, 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.
