	Using free speech to free minds.
	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	As the clock strikes 13, it's Friday the 26th of January.
	Hear of our Lord, 2024.
	Well, we see things coming to a head at the border.
	Today is a deadline between this showdown.
	Of Biden and Abbott, we're going to talk about the political implications of this, what might happen next.
	We also have farmers, I've mentioned this briefly, but it is true, it is tremendous movement all across Europe of a farmer rebellion.
	And of course, the Canadian truckers have been more than vindicated in these trials this week.
	Electric vehicles are looking like a hula hoop fad during the winter as it exposes the flaws of these mandates.
	So what do these things have in common?
	Are we winning? This is a moment of crisis, danger and opportunity.
	I guess we could say like Frodo did, or Gondolf, the quest is on the edge of a knife.
	We'll be right back. Well, and somewhat surprising move, although from a political standpoint, it was, what should we call it?
	Oh, 4-D-Tress, I guess.
	Yeah. This is not only a check on Biden, but from a political standpoint, it could be checkmate for this guy.
	If he gets his way, is he going to use force to open up the border?
	I mean, what's the political optics of that, of course?
	But the interesting thing is not that this is just between Abbott and Biden, but when you look at the number of states that have signed on to this, I don't know what the latest count is.
	They've kept escalating.
	And it's pretty much every state that's got a Republican governor has signed on to support what Texas is doing.
	And look at that map.
	The only problem is that they keep using the color red.
	You know, let's understand that's the color of Marxism.
	And that's why they assigned that color to us to confuse us.
	Because we don't really know what's going on.
	When you look at all this stuff, all the green agenda and everything, I said these people were watermelon Marxists for the longest time.
	A thin veneer, like a watermelon, a thin veneer of green, but completely red on the inside because they're Marxist.
	And all of this is a Marxist tactic.
	So I wish we should have recolored this and made it blue, or just to shake things up.
	Nevertheless, look at that. It's a big map of people that are allied against Biden on this invasion at the border.
	But notice two states that are not on board with that.
	Three states, actually, of course.
	California, Arizona, New Mexico, Which make up a large part of the southern border.
	And when we talk about what is actually being contested, it is a very, very, very small part of the Texas border.
	But this is the other thing that is happening here.
	Let's go to Operation Lone Star.
	They're sending material support and National Guard troops.
	They're calling it Operation Lone Star.
	So here's some planes coming in.
	You'll see troops getting on board with that.
	Again, the deadline is today, what is Biden's move possibly going to be with all these people that are coming in there?
	Well, the obvious move is for Biden to say, I'm going to take federal control of the National Guard.
	That's really about the only thing he's got left.
	Otherwise, he's going to be standing down with this.
	And so, as Abbott has talked about this, he's actually cited the part of the Constitution we talked about yesterday, which is the failure of the Biden administration, he said, to fulfill the duties imposed by Article 4, Section 4, to defend the country, has triggered Article 1, Section 10, Clause 3, which he talked about yesterday.
	A New American did a great article about it, said, okay, there's two things in it.
	If a state is invaded...
	They have the right to defend themselves.
	They don't have to wait and ask Mother May I from the federal government, from the president.
	They can take care of it right away.
	And also it says imminent danger.
	And so the question is, is the imminent danger related to an invasion?
	Is it an invasion? Are these two separate things?
	Is it an invasion and danger?
	Or is it invasion or danger?
	And of course, I would think that any invasion would be dangerous, wouldn't it?
	And public opinion is on the side that it is an invasion.
	And that the rights of the states to...
	And I don't like to talk about states' rights.
	We need to talk...
	And that's what Abbott said.
	We need to talk about the powers of the states.
	Right? Corporations have privileges.
	They don't have rights. States have powers.
	They don't have rights. Human beings have rights because we are creatures of God.
	Those rights are inalienable.
	It doesn't matter if the state or the federal government tries to take them away.
	They can't take them away.
	They can become tyrants.
	They can kill us. They can enslave us.
	But they can never take our rights if we understand what they are.
	If they try to take our rights, that makes them illegitimate.
	That's the basis of our government.
	It's what it was founded upon.
	And the basis of our Constitution.
	And as DeSantis said, if it wasn't understood by the founders that states have a right to defend themselves in the case of invasion, they would have never signed on to this.
	Because it would have been nothing but a suicide compact.
	And maybe that's what it has turned into.
	Abbott said, I've already declared an invasion.
	Under Article 1, Section 10, Clause 3, so that I can invoke Texas's constitutional authority to defend and protect itself.
	Isn't it sad that Amy Coney Barrett could have prevented all of this nonsense?
	She could have stood on the right side of things, but she didn't.
	And it's not just her. You know, we now have, Donald Trump is now waiting in on this and trying to come lately.
	And he's, first thing he says is, I had a wonderful border when I was president.
	I fixed everything. You didn't fix anything.
	Somebody must have finally taken the mirror out of his hand.
	And then when he looks at the border, all he can see is himself again.
	His imaginary self.
	His imaginary self.
	Yeah, we had, what, a couple hundred miles of fixed wall.
	Very little new wall.
	So you've got, you know, three or four hundred miles of wall on a 2,000 mile border.
	Sounds to me like a big door, not a wall.
	And I never thought that that was going to be a very effective way to deal with things anyway.
	It's not, you're not going to stop this with a wall.
	You're going to stop it like this.
	Alright? Boots on the ground.
	You're not coming in. Go back.
	You do that enough, and it'll stop this.
	But what has happened is, President Trump and his weakness emboldened caravans.
	Remember, everybody thought that he really was going to do something about it, so for the first six months, everything did stop.
	Then they realized he was a paper tiger.
	Then the caravans began.
	And they've escalated under Biden, because he keeps incentivizing it.
	It's the welfare magnet.
	Karen and I have been to Big Bend National Park, and it's a big presence.
	You have to go through this station where they check you and everything.
	It's a bunch of nonsense.
	Oh, we got the Border Patrol station here.
	We're asserting our authority 100 miles into the border and all the rest of this nonsense.
	It was just harassment.
	Do you think that the cartels and the illegal immigrants are going to go through those checkpoints?
	That's there to harass American citizens.
	We got into the park. We walked around.
	We went down to the border.
	Where the Rio Grande was in certain areas, it's very small, very calm.
	I remember there was a little river that was running through at one point.
	We were hiking through there, and they had some Mexican people on the other side playing music and waving and all that.
	And because they had, on the American side, they had set up like a little stand, and they had little trinkets and stuff like that, which we looked at them, but we weren't really interested in buying any of them.
	But we looked at them, and they're playing music to get us to take a look at it and everything.
	And so you have this peaceful commerce that can go back and forth.
	I have no problem with that.
	I really don't. I have a problem with the welfare magnet.
	I mean, these people, they'd made some things and they were like little tourist type of souvenirs and stuff like that.
	They put them over there and if you want to buy it, you take the thing and you leave some cash in the jar.
	What's wrong with that? You know, governments get involved in this and they make everything a mess, don't they?
	It's not a problem when people want to work and people want to have a voluntary market like that.
	I appreciated that.
	We didn't like the stuff to buy it, but that was cool.
	What I have a problem with is when the government gets involved and they start taking money from me and enticing other people to come from all over the world, not just Mexico, not just Central and South America, all over the world.
	Come here. And live at the expense of these Americans as we fleece them.
	I have a problem with that.
	And I think they're also trying to destroy our culture, our nationality, not just the borders.
	Trying to pad voters for their likes.
	All this stuff is a part of this.
	So, under the authority of Governor Abbott, Troopers are arresting illegal immigrants for criminal trespass, as you just saw there.
	And then in Shelby Park, three migrants from Venezuela blocked from illegally entering by razor wire installed by the Texas Military Department.
	The migrants say they've been waiting for three days on the riverbank to enter.
	Federal agents are not allowed to enter Shelby Park.
	And so here's the key.
	You know, the park is, this order is, you know, turn the park over to us, give us a boat landing, and all the rest of the stuff.
	Do you realize what a small subsection of the border this is?
	As I pointed to the map before, let's pull this up again, okay?
	There's Texas. But, you know, California, Arizona, New Mexico, they don't want to do anything about the border.
	And when you look at Texas, I've talked in the past about how Abbott has done photo ops, Where he took some highway patrol cars and lined them up bumper to bumper in a line at the border, took pictures of it like they're going to protect the border.
	Now, this is an important principle that is happening here, and it is a flashpoint, but do you understand how microscopically small this little area that they're fighting over is?
	But, of course, it could be a flashpoint.
	Who knows how this is going to be happening, how this is going to play out, because we have...
	A very foolish president in power right now.
	Joaquin Castro, and of course the Castro brothers, radical Marxists there in Texas.
	And one of them was in Congress, another one was in the administration.
	If Abbott is defying yesterday's Supreme Court ruling, the president needs to establish sole federal control of the Texas National Guard now.
	And I'm not sure exactly what the difference is between the Texas Military Department and the Texas National Guard.
	Is this a separate thing?
	I haven't found a definition of that.
	Maybe if you know, you can mention it on the chat here and get Travis to look for that and see if he sees anything there.
	Nevertheless, that would be the next move.
	Because what's Biden going to do?
	He says, well, I've got a Supreme Court decision here that Amy gave me.
	Amy and Roberts wrote this decision up here, and I've got this piece of paper.
	Well, what's he going to do if all of these governors are sending National Guard troops to the border to bolster this?
	And that is a very important message that's being sent.
	But again, this is a very small part of the border.
	The Supreme Court merely lifted the prohibition on the cutting of razor wire by the Border Patrol, said one person.
	It did not bar Texas from installing additional razor wire.
	Well, I think that's kind of semantics.
	But I think it's also...
	This is about that city, Eagle Pass, and not only just that city, but a park and a boat ramp and things.
	This is a very, very small area.
	And it was, you know, you will turn this area over to the Border Patrol so they can open up the border.
	Biden Department of Homeland Security demands that Texas grant federal agents access to the border following the Supreme Court decision.
	So, is this going to be war?
	With 25 red states rallying around Texas, there's a battle bruised with Biden over the borders.
	The headline from Zero Hedge, and a lot of people are really milking this.
	You know, Civil War.
	Watch me, I'm going to tell you about the Civil War today, you know.
	Can't miss this program.
	Red alert. Put up the blinking thing here.
	Well, the Biden administration has truly abdicated its responsibility, said Greg Abbott.
	To enforce the immigration laws on the books, Texas has a constitutional right to defend and to protect itself, and we will continue to hold the line.
	Then the question is, what are you going to do if Biden issues the order to the National Guard?
	DeSantis says Texas is upholding the law.
	Biden is flouting it.
	And again, as I said before, DeSantis point out if the Constitution really made states powerless to defend themselves against an invasion, it would have never been ratified in the first place.
	And Texas would have never joined the Union when it did.
	Texas is upholding the law while Biden is flouting it, and Florida will continue to assist Texas.
	But here's the bigger, besides the next move, that Biden has.
	That's an easy move for him to make.
	What are the political consequences of it?
	He is going to essentially go to war with Texas in order to keep the border open.
	Do you realize what a losing proposition that is?
	And that's what we need to focus on, is that he really is over a barrel with this.
	You know, he's the one who's between a rock and a hard spot.
	He either backs down, or he takes control of the National Guard, and then has these optics that everybody sees.
	Everybody hates what is happening.
	They hate it in Democrat areas.
	The vast majority of people in this country, 65% of the people in this country, Believe it's an invasion.
	55% of Democrats believe it is an invasion.
	Because it is!
	Nothing could be more obvious.
	Who are you going to believe, Biden or your lying eyes?
	And so, while this is all happening, Mitch McConnell is meeting with Republicans in private meetings to talk about Ukraine.
	Ukraine. Isn't this pathetic?
	A clueless empire. That's why I said there's not going to be any solutions coming out of Washington at all, Republican or Democrat.
	The solutions, if they come, are going to be state and local.
	And it's going to be done by individuals.
	Mitch McConnell and the Republicans do nothing about this.
	And of course, Mitch McConnell is the reason that we have the Paris Climate Accord.
	As much as John Kerry and Obama, everybody says, look, they've got to say, well...
	Mitch McConnell could have gotten us out.
	Ted Cruz could have gotten us out.
	Rand Paul could have gotten us out.
	Any of these people. Mike Lee, any of them, could have said, wait a minute, wait a minute, you can't self-ratify a treaty.
	That's our job. And that is a treaty that you claim is in effect.
	So we're going to call a vote.
	And they don't have to be the majority leader.
	They don't have to be, you know, anybody who is even the minority leader.
	As an individual senator, they could have started that call.
	I mean, I talked about it.
	It was... Steve Malloy, who talked about that, I had him on the program talking about it, couldn't get traction to do that because Republicans don't want to protect us from the green agenda.
	They don't want to protect us from the open border agenda either.
	So, this is a big test of where federal authority ends and where a state can defend its own interests, and that is why it is very interesting.
	That's the way that RT sees it from Russia.
	The state troops seized control of a park on the Texas-Mexico boundary earlier this month, blocking Border Patrol officers from accessing the site and stringing concertina wire to seal off a popular crossing point for illegal immigrants.
	That's what I'm saying. This is symbolic for both sides.
	And I have a listener who says, when my father-in-law went down to Mexico to visit family for Christmas, he had to drive through the Eagle Pass area.
	There was heavy fog and he could barely see anything.
	All of a sudden, dozens of people come out of the fog in the road and he has to slam on his brakes.
	And it was a migrant caravan.
	Too stupid to get off the road in a heavy fog.
	Oh, I'm sorry. That was Travis.
	That was Travis. He says, not a listener, it's me.
	Okay, yeah, that's interesting.
	So, anyway, that's where we are right now with all of this.
	And this is just a very small area.
	Again, it's Eagle Pass, and it's a small part of Eagle Pass.
	One little tiny town and one tiny part of it.
	Abbott's legal argument hinges on his declaration that it's an invasion.
	And, of course, as I said, the vast majority of people believe that it is.
	65% think it's an invasion.
	Even 55% of Democrats say it's an invasion.
	This is a difficult spot for the Democrats, and they got themselves deservedly into it.
	And, quite frankly, they've shown themselves to be traitors.
	No other way to look at this.
	He essentially faces a choice of backing down or of federalizing the Texas National Guard and tearing down the state border barriers, which would make it easier for people to come through.
	And so, right now, they're not saying what they're going to do.
	Today is the deadline, so they can either put up or shut up about this.
	And in the context of this, I thought it was interesting because As RT is talking about this, to an international audience, but also to Americans.
	They're kind of addressing an international audience, but they know that a lot of this is being read in America.
	But RT goes back to the historical context that I've talked about many times.
	Going back to the 1830s, the tariffs of abomination, that nearly...
	Resulted in secession and civil war in the 1830s.
	But it didn't happen in the 1830s.
	Why didn't it happen?
	because the population was not in the mood to change all the institutions. And so they, as difficult as it became, and again the tariffs of abomination in the South, they were exporting most of their agricultural products. The cotton that they were growing they were sending to the mills in the UK where they had the industrialized equipment to turn it into material. But they were sending the raw
	material there and they didn't want to have tariffs because they knew that if there were tariffs that that would impact their trade.
	And so it began over that.
	And at the time, you had Andrew Jackson, who was president, a southerner from Tennessee.
	And he said to them, he said, disunion by armed forces treason.
	Are you really ready to incur its guilt?
	Said Andrew Jackson, because he was a...
	It was a pretty tough guy.
	And he was ready to pull the trigger.
	And they backed down.
	They wanted to have compromise. But 30 years later, there was not going to be any compromise because this whole thing had churned.
	And again, it was at a 70, 80-year cycle.
	And the Industrial Revolution was getting stronger and stronger.
	As I've said before, there was a similar thing happening in Italy at exactly the same time, 1861 to 1865.
	Civil War there.
	It was about these economic forces.
	And although South Carolina was talking about first nullification and then talking about secession because of these tariffs, they came up with a compromise.
	But then when it was...
	Time for the cycle where this type of thing happened.
	Those festering divisions caused the Civil War in the 1860s.
	What do we glean from this in our time?
	Well, unfortunately for us, we are in a time like the 1860s, not the 1830s.
	And we have been in this division.
	People are fed up with the institutions.
	Massively fed up with institutions at this point in time.
	As a matter of fact, one poll looks at it and says, Americans are losing trust in nearly all professions.
	Gallup's 2023 honesty and ethics poll.
	This is a reflection of the mindset of the public at this point in societal cycles.
	56% rate doctors highly down from 65% in 2019.
	So all these are from 2019 till today.
	So, you know, we're talking about four to five years.
	So doctors went from 65% to 56%.
	This is in terms of trust.
	Police went from 54% to 45%.
	College teachers, 49% down to 42%.
	Clergy, 40% to 32%.
	Journalists, 28% to 19%.
	Business leaders, from 20% to 12%.
	Only 6% rate members of Congress as trustworthy.
	That's probably, that 6% are probably all congressional employees.
	Because they have, that is such a massive bureaucracy anyway.
	Congressional members are rated worse than car dealers, stockbrokers, and insurance salesmen.
	More highly supported professions have also seen a decrease in trust.
	Nurses. In 2019, 78% of people trusted nurses.
	Now, I'm sorry, 85% trusted nurses in 2019.
	That's fallen to 78% because of COVID and hospital actions.
	Because they actually had to meet some nurses.
	After they started wearing those masks.
	I don't trust people wearing a mask, okay?
	That's always been the case.
	They're trying to rob you or something.
	I don't know what the deal is, but...
	Anyway, engineers, from 66% down to 60%.
	Maybe that's the electric vehicles and appliances.
	I was taking a hit on that.
	And then finally, when you look at the difference between Republicans and Democrats and their different opinions on different professions, 62% of Democrats rate college teachers highly compared to only 22% of Republicans.
	Democrats rate journalists highly.
	32% of them do, I should say.
	Only 7% of Republicans respect journalists.
	37% of Democrats rate police officers highly compared to 55% of Republicans.
	So we're pretty divided.
	But you see that the trust in all the institutions is failing because as part of the fourth turning, everybody demands that there be a major restructuring of society, or at least the appearance of a restructuring of society.
	So where do we go from here?
	Well, I think the Babylon Bee has got their finger on the pulse of all of this.
	They say Biden and Abbott will face off in a wheelchair joust to the death.
	They've got their little Photoshop thing there.
	The two of them at the border, lances in hand as they sit in their wheelchairs.
	And then this one is even better, I think.
	Ted Cruz grows out mutton chops in preparation for a civil war.
	And in their text they say, they have Ted Cruz saying, our dear state is under bombardment by both invaders from the south and those good-for-nothing carpet-bagging bureaucrats from up north would.
	That's, you know, that's what's really scary.
	Is the leadership that we have for this Civil War.
	We better hope that there's going to be someone rise up from the bottom if we do have a Civil War.
	Finally, Babylon Bee has 10 easy steps to prepare for the next Civil War.
	Number one, watch all the John Wick movies and take notes.
	Do everything exactly the way Keanu does it, and you'll be fine.
	Number two, get your Gettysburg reenactment uniform dry-cleaned so you'll look good when the shooting starts.
	Number three, spend a weekend in Chicago.
	It'll help you get used to living in a hellish landscape full of rubble, constant gunfire, and dead bodies.
	And you know what? If we lose, that is probably what the rest of the country is going to turn into is Chicago.
	I think maybe instead of calling it an invasion, maybe we need to call it an em-evasion.
	You know, immigrant invasion.
	Trump has, as I said before, backed Abbott.
	He says, when I was president, we had the most secure border in history.
	Is that the way you remember it?
	You keep telling a lie enough and you'll get people to believe it, right?
	That's what the gross, the big lie, as the Nazis called it.
	J.D. Vance has taken another attack here.
	He's unveiled a bill that would bar the feds from taking down border fencing erected by the states.
	Maybe you should also include taking down any border fencing that was put up by the feds.
	So if it's put up by private people on private property, like it was with Bannon and that other guy under the Trump administration, I guess it embarrassed Trump because, you know, his administration came after them.
	They built a wall on private property, and it kind of highlighted the fact that Trump wasn't building a wall.
	But, you know, he doesn't want to throw his friend Bannon in jail, so he pardoned him.
	But the other guy he threw in jail, the guy in the wheelchair, you know, talking about wheelchairs at the border, Brian Kofalji.
	The disabled vet, he goes to jail.
	That's Steve Bannon. It's who you know, right?
	What is this about a two-tiered justice system?
	Under Biden, of course, not under Trump, right?
	Anyway, J.D. Vance of Ohio introduced legislation Thursday to prohibit the federal government from removing the fencing at the U.S.-Mexican border days after the Supreme Court ruled the feds can take down the razor wire.
	And not to be outdone, you have a guy in the house, The Congress, Congressional House.
	Mike Collins, Republican from Georgia, introduced similar legislation.
	And he has, his legislation's even better because he's got a spiffy acronym.
	His legislation is the RAZR Act.
	Whoa. Whoa.
	And that stands for Restricting Administration Zealots from Obliging Raiders.
	This is such a childish show, isn't it?
	A little dog and pony show.
	He's got the razor act.
	As I talked about it, I said, hey, here's the Occam's razor at the border.
	Here's what's really going on.
	But he comes up the razor act.
	I should have called it Gillette or something.
	And the little Santa Claus riding the electric razor.
	And so one contrarian take on all of this is from a substack of Conundrum Cluster.
	And he said, so, he said, I get people upset with me because, he says, I don't think it's going to be a civil war.
	And he says, and if it is going to be a civil war, he's not too optimistic about the outcome of it.
	So I thought, well, that's kind of interesting.
	I'm kind of at that point as well.
	He says, for years now, Abbott has given free bus tickets to sanctuary cities like New York and Boston, Chicago, places like that.
	He says this solves a real problem for the citizens of his state, and I don't think it does.
	As I said yesterday, I think if you're going to, when you see the interviews of these people, they've got them sitting there, you know, waiting for their cash supplement and their free phone and their ticket from Abbott.
	You know, you ask them, the guy would go down, the journalist would go down the line and would say, where are you from and where are you going?
	And most of them are going to New York.
	Well, if you want to go to New York, Would you want to, after you've walked so far through Mexico, you know, from the Darien Gap up through Mexico and everything, do you still want to now walk all the way up to New York City?
	You have to do that if you go into Arizona or California.
	But if you're going to Texas, you know, maybe Abbott will give you a free ride.
	So it actually pulls people in.
	It's another one of these welfare magnets.
	He's got a transportation magnet.
	Gavin Newsom's got a welfare magnet.
	He wants people to just stay there and vote for him.
	But it is a transportation magnet.
	So I don't think it really helps the people of Texas.
	They've got to pay for this transportation.
	They get even more people coming in there.
	And then after you send these people to New York or to Chicago or wherever, they're going to go on federal welfare.
	And Texans don't have a state income tax, but they do have a federal income tax.
	They're going to have to pay for that. Or...
	Suffer the consequences with greater deficits, which would be the way that it goes.
	And so I don't really think that's even a good solution for the people of Texas.
	But as he points out, it's just a drop in the bucket.
	He has transported about 50,000 people.
	But, you know, we've got millions of illegals that have come in.
	And so, you know, we've got at least 3 million that they know of.
	How many more came in?
	So we're looking at tens of thousands of these things versus millions.
	What is this? Is this the 0.1% solution or something?
	It's not even the 7% solution that Sherlock Holmes had.
	This is a solution that is microscopically small.
	He says it's impossible to give liberal areas so many illegal immigrants that they'll be forced to change their views.
	And I said this yesterday. I said, oh, so you're owning these people and you're getting a lot of press attention for doing this.
	Yeah, we'll show them. We'll own the lebs.
	But the mayors of Chicago and New York, they don't care.
	They really don't care.
	Denver, they don't care.
	All they do is say, hey, look at this problem.
	We need more money from the federal government.
	And they don't really care what happens to their own people.
	That's pretty obvious, isn't it?
	Apart from all of the immigrants and all the rest of the stuff, these mayors of New York and Chicago, they don't care about the people that live in their city.
	They're perfectly content to have uncontrolled crime there.
	So... I don't think that you're ever going to get them to change their views because they really don't care.
	And then he says, from a legal standpoint, it is completely absurd.
	Essentially, the federal government is asserting its exclusive right over immigration matters and control the border so that it can facilitate illegal entry into the country.
	And again, that's what Amy Coney Barrett and John Roberts did.
	The people in charge of the U.S. government today are traitors.
	He said they're arguing for the federal government's right to allow the country to be invaded.
	Whether or not that right is consistent with American jurisprudence is irrelevant.
	This is bigger than a legal issue.
	He says, I know I'm widely hated for my view that there is no civil war, national divorce, or any kind of geopolitical shake-up or sustained irregular warfare coming.
	He says, I'm also hated for my assertion that in the extremely unlikely event that one of those bad things did occur, there's literally zero chance of it working out well for the American right.
	And I don't think that, you know, maybe not in this particular case, But I think that it is likely that something like this is going to happen.
	This is just another step towards it.
	It's going to move us towards that.
	But I do agree with him. It's not going to work out well for anybody.
	It's not even going to work out well for the people who win.
	Right or left. Civil wars don't work out well for people.
	But I do think it's coming.
	Because I think we are at that time.
	Anyway, he says with this in mind, there's two key considerations for this.
	Number one, Texas is in an extremely good position now, taking a stand against behavior that the overwhelming majority of Americans find objectionable.
	It's a big win. And the further things escalate, the worse the situation becomes for Texas.
	Well, how could those two things both be true?
	He says for this reason.
	He said the federal government is becoming increasingly absurd.
	And criminal in its public actions.
	And we're now getting evidence that exposes these sophisticated networks behind the ongoing invasion of the U.S. As a matter of fact, Republican congressmen started exposing that at the beginning of the Biden administration.
	They want to talk about it when Trump is in charge, right?
	But then when Biden got in, they started talking about how the U.N. was financing a lot of this stuff.
	And in December... We had a document drop that brings the receipts.
	And there are billions of dollars that the UN is pushing into this thing.
	But as I said before, you know, when we were talking about the lockdowns and the vaccines and the mandates and the 2020 election, all these people said, well, you better hope that you better support Donald Trump because if we get Biden, we're going to get mandates.
	And I said, well, Trump is going to do it in a more subtle way.
	And when Trump does it, people won't oppose him.
	Biden will be aggressive.
	He'll be bold with his mandates.
	And people will oppose him.
	Because you're not going to get any opposition on the vaccine stuff, I said, from the Democrats because they're fully on board with that.
	The Republicans don't like the vaccine, but they'll go along with it as long as Trump is there.
	And the same thing is happening with the lockdowns, the same thing with the border and the rest of the stuff.
	When Biden comes in, he escalates the issue with a mandate or with increased facilitation of the open borders.
	Trump just does it subtly. He declares that he's controlled the border and We're supposed to believe him because he's Trump and yet the border was wide open under Trump under Biden the conservative press reports what's happening and The Republicans look at who is funding it so they can come after Biden and We're not in denial about what the reality is And so in a sense, that is a good thing.
	And even though Biden is against us, at least people can see that he's against us instead of stabbing us in the back as Trump does and lulling us to sleep.
	It's the same phenomenon you see with people.
	When Democrats get in office, everybody starts buying guns.
	Then a Republican gets in office.
	That happened when Trump got in office.
	All of a sudden, gun sales nosedived.
	Well, we still have the ATF, and they still got their agenda.
	You know, you had the same ATF in the George H.W. Bush administration, that Ruby Ridge, that you did.
	The same people in the ATF did the same thing with Waco under Bill Clinton.
	But most people in the conservative press didn't really want to talk about what happened at Ruby Ridge.
	They'd rather talk about what happened at Waco.
	And make it all about Janet Reno and Bill Clinton.
	It was really more about the people in the ATF. Anyway, so Texas does not have, he says, the ability to win a physical confrontation with federal forces.
	This is one of the reasons why I think you continue to see Biden talking about, oh yeah, you don't need an AR-15 to stop me, you need an F-16 to stop me.
	He keeps pushing this. Just did it again the other day.
	I think he is deliberately prodding us into that.
	I don't think the people in his administration are stupid.
	And to the extent that Biden has any mental faculties left, he has always been a tyrant.
	An in-your-face tyrant.
	Texas's actions are popular with the general public.
	And, of course, Trump won in 2016.
	On the immigration issue, the worst case scenario, says the contrarian conundrum here, the worst case scenario is some kind of bloodshed.
	And then the issue would no longer be immigration, but it'd be about the Civil War.
	And he says there's a reason why they're pumping out movies like the Alex Garland Civil War movie.
	He said the pretext of an impending civil war could be used by the feds to justify a lot of things to the general public that they normally would not be able to justify.
	And here's the key, folks, because I see a lot of these same people, like Alex Jones, who led people into January the 6th, get down to the border right now.
	We've got to save this country, like we're going to save the presidency from Biden, okay?
	He said it can be used to bait conservatives, okay?
	Because that's what they use Alex Jones for.
	It can be used to bait conservatives into making mistakes that they normally would not make.
	And he says, for example, you could, once they react to this, if they react to this, it is a trap and it is a bait, in order to annihilate the American right.
	Look at how they've used January the 6th.
	Can you not see that? Can you not see how they're trying to ramp this up again?
	Maybe they'll wait until the election. If the election doesn't go their way, then they do the January the 6th part do. Or maybe they start to do it now. He says never kid yourself into thinking that they couldn't do it just because everything is a DEI clown show today. He says it's really important to remain
	The only thing that people should be thinking about right now is the absurd immigration policies and the ongoing invasion of the U.S. If you focus on a civil war, as so many in the right are doing, as Alex is doing, that's going to get them clickbait traffic, but it's going to take the focus away from the real issue, and it's going to cause us to lose.
	It's just that simple.
	He said the number one thing the American right needs to do today is to have a normal election to happen in November 24.
	He says Trump is winning.
	Well, that's where we part ways, he and I. This is not a normal election, in case you haven't noticed.
	It's not even going to be an election.
	It's going to be a coronation, right?
	And you've already got the RNC saying, well, let's just skip all the rest of the primaries.
	There's no reason to do them. Because they're just going to announce Trump the winner right now.
	What? What?
	What is all this about the sacredness of elections and the vote and all the rest of this stuff?
	Folks, the whole election thing and democracy has been a scam.
	I hope you see that by now.
	They have focused on one little narrow aspect of it in January the 6th.
	Trump with his Save America, Alex with his Stop the Steal stuff.
	They focus on a very narrow part of it.
	Just like at the border, they're focusing on a very narrow part of it.
	Now, it can be indicative of broader solutions, broader problems, I should say.
	But when you look at how they're shaping this narrative, there's not going to be any normal elections, no debates.
	They have the Democrat Party, the DNC has said, well, we're not gonna put, even put RFK on the ballot.
	And I don't support RFK.
	But what's important about this is that you look at how authoritarian and totalitarian This so-called election is turning out.
	You got, first, the DNC throwing RFK Jr.
	off the ballot. Now the RNC wants to do the same thing with Nikki Haley.
	And I despise Nikki Haley.
	I've always called her Nuki Haley.
	Everything about her, there's not anything I agree with Nuki Haley about.
	But we should have the, at least pretend.
	They're not even pretending anymore that we're going to have honest elections.
	And so this is a coronation.
	It's a coronation of Biden.
	It's a coronation of Trump.
	And then what happens when we have the so-called vote in the fall?
	Regardless of who wins, you're going to have half the country ready to go to war with the other half of the country, especially if Trump loses.
	And they're building him up with all of these trials and tribulations that he's facing.
	So that's what they're building for.
	And we need to not be chumps about this.
	Well, you know, Trump is so popular with conservatives, I just know he's going to win the election.
	And then when he doesn't win the election, boom, civil war.
	That's the problem.
	And so even though I agree with this guy on a lot of this, I think he's got a lot of wisdom here.
	On that point, I disagree.
	So we just need to keep on focused.
	We've got to keep going towards this election.
	And Trump is going to win, and then everything's going to be fine.
	No, it's not.
	Even if he wins, it's not going to be fine.
	Because the other side is not going to put up with this.
	Do you remember the riots in the summer of 2020?
	BLM, Antifa, the rest of them.
	My question for these people is just, if he couldn't stop them from stealing the election when he had all the power, how is he going to stop them now?
	We all think the election was stolen last time.
	What is he going to do? What has been reformed?
	Nothing. Did they change anything about the mail-out ballots?
	Did they change anything about voting machines?
	All the things that people like Tim Pool have complained about for four years, but he doesn't want to hear you complaining about the lockdowns, the masks, the vaccines.
	But he wants to continue to complain about the election.
	What has been fixed, Tim?
	And anybody else who wants to talk about that?
	What got fixed?
	I said that back in December of, you know, right after the election.
	I said, look, if you run the runoffs in Georgia under these same rules, you're going to lose the Senate.
	Got two senators in Georgia, and they did.
	But yeah, this guy says, though, if things proceed relatively smoothly until election day, Trump will win.
	Then what? He says the crazier things get, the less certain a good outcome becomes.
	No, they want Trump there because they want everybody crazy.
	They want people deranged about him on the left and deluded about him on the right.
	And they want them both to fight.
	The barbed wire will come down one way or the other, he says.
	It's not worth getting into a shootout over it or whatever.
	Again, this particular flashpoint here, it is a flashpoint.
	We're not talking about, you know, the fact that Trump put up 300, 400, 500 miles of wall, you know, or fixed it or whatever, out of 2,000.
	We're talking about like one mile, a one-mile area out of about 2,000.
	He says, that said, there's certainly nothing wrong with Texas making federal victory as embarrassing and as public as possible.
	Make the obstacles really difficult to remove.
	Provide them with no accommodations.
	Make them the ones who have to react at every step of the way.
	What is this called? It's called non-commandeering.
	We're not going to participate with this.
	We're not going to assist you.
	We might actually passively be in the way.
	It's called nullification.
	This is the type of thing.
	And then, of course, from a political standpoint, this is a losing position for them to shove their way in to open up the border.
	Make them the ones who have to react every step of the way.
	Passive resistance won't offer the feds the chance to move the focus away from immigration.
	Keep the focus on immigration.
	Don't turn this, you know, don't follow these jerks who want you to do another January the 6th at the border with him.
	Because you know what's going to happen? You get down there and Alex is going to, yeah, let's go get these guys.
	And he's going to run the other way. I've seen him do it over and over again.
	That's what he did on January the 6th.
	That's what Trump did. Yeah, meet me over the Congress, Trump said.
	And then Alex Jones is there and he runs to the other side of Washington and hangs out at the Supreme Court.
	Demoralized people feel and act helplessly.
	Let me just say this, you know, to paraphrase Gerald Salenti, when all else fails, as he said, they take you to war.
	Well, when all else fails, don't let them take you to war.
	Don't follow these people into this.
	Keep the focus on immigration.
	And it is a, you know, it'll be a big pyrrhic victory for Biden if he gets his way.
	He says it's humiliating to watch bad people get away with doing bad things.
	And he said that's the reason why they do what they do in these Democrat cities with the Soros district attorneys and all the rest of them.
	These globalist attorneys who want to create chaos.
	They want to let people just go through and steal as much as they want.
	And it is humiliating.
	It is aggravating. Look at the many times we've had store employees confront these people.
	We all know how wrong that is.
	Everybody knows that theft is wrong.
	And to shut that down, humiliate people, subdue people, feel so helpless that they'll accept any change that promises to fix their solution, the problems.
	You know, even putting in Trump again, that's not a change.
	That's insanity.
	Doing the same thing again and expecting different results.
	You will get some different results.
	And they're going to be even worse than they were the first time.
	He said, I think the courage of Governor Abbott and the people helping him will be contagious.
	That's the important thing.
	See, the important thing is this map right here.
	Because now you're starting to see people over and over again say, you know, our solutions are at the state level perhaps, not in Washington.
	And we need to have that understanding because we're going to need to come together for financial solutions.
	We're going to need to have some states that are going to take control as the Federal Reserve is burning down our financial system.
	They need to give us some kind of a backup system and help to lead the way.
	I mean, we have to take measures that we can on our own.
	And Tony is going to be joining us today.
	He set up davidknight.gold.
	If you want to certainly prepare on your own, don't leave it all to some officials at the state or local level.
	But you're not going to get any solutions out of Washington.
	You're going to get some clown show slogans like the Razor Act.
	From a Republican congressman.
	And they'll do nothing. They'll hold some hearings and do nothing.
	They continue. Why don't you just cut off the money, as Chip Roy said.
	Cut off the money that you're giving to the Department of Homeland Security.
	Border Patrol is under that.
	Just cut off those funds.
	So it's very important, he says, that the immense energy building now be harnessed and focused in an organized, systemic way.
	That can actually change the world for the better.
	And if we continue on with this map, that could happen.
	You could harness that energy.
	You could focus that energy.
	And you could have some systemic change.
	So that would be the best possible outcome that could come from this.
	But I said, before I take a break, I've been going on for nearly an hour now, I said before, where is this coming from?
	And this is another aspect of it, that because Biden is in office, the Republicans began exposing how the United Nations was giving so much money to these NGOs, It's not just Soros.
	It is Soros and other people like him, other foundations like that.
	But a lot of it is coming from the United Nations.
	And that is ultimately our money because we're the biggest funder of the United Nations.
	And so this article from technocracy.com, technocracy.news, sorry.
	The United Nations budgets millions for U.S.-bound migrants in 2024.
	The Trilateral Commission figurehead Peter Sutherland, 1945-2018, when he died, should be jumping for joy in his grave.
	He spread illegal immigration as a way to destroy Europe, and the same policy was and is being used against America.
	The Trilateral Commission has used the UN as a sledgehammer since 1974 when it adopted the General Assembly Resolution 3201, establishing the new international economic order.
	You see how it's all about economics?
	The World Economic Forum.
	The UN's new international economic order.
	And even when you look at the Trilateral Commission, Zbigniew Brzezinski's involvement in that You know, what the idea was, let's have trade blocks, and we'll create three trade blocks, Europe, Asia, and, you know,
	North America. And we will make, by using trade, just like they did in the European Union, they had first a common market, and then it got more and more consolidated and tighter and tighter in terms of the connections between it.
	And then they move into a political union.
	The European Union. But it's still kind of loose.
	Then to tighten it up, they go back to economics and introduce the euro.
	And then with that there, they've got something really to work with, with the money leverage there.
	But the plan was to create a consolidated European bloc, a consolidated Asian bloc, and a consolidated North American bloc.
	And then to unify those three blocs into a global governance.
	But going back to the border stuff, What he said at the time, this is Peter Sutherland, what he said at the time, was that he talked about human mobility.
	And these people are not about human mobility.
	He's talking about mass migration to erase nations.
	Because these are the same people who, you know, having passports and visas, that's really kind of a 20th century phenomenon.
	There really wasn't much in terms of border control for people who wanted to travel around Europe and other places.
	And they've made it tighter and tighter and tighter.
	Yes, they did remove the borders within Europe in the Shenzhen zone where people could travel like we do here in the United States without having to show papers and things like that.
	But look at what they have done, especially in the 21st century how they have put passports on Steroids as a way to control movement. So this is not about human mobility This is about intentional demographic war Mobility is about Liberty, but this is about destroying Nations and borders and so he says human mobility quote-unquote
	He says no other force not trade not capital flows has the potential to transform lives in sustainable positive ways on the scale that migration does There's no greater symbol of the world's growing interdependence than the movement of people.
	Advanced countries with their advanced demographic trends need migrants, as do developing countries.
	Well, they're not getting them in the developing countries.
	No, what this is, is what he is declaring is This is one of their tactics, of course, to take everything down.
	Public documents are now showing that they're giving cash handouts, and they're the ones behind the kind of stuff that has been reported by Michael Yon down at Darien Gap.
	They're the ones that are funding these cash literally being handed out to people, or these prepaid cards.
	He says early on in America's historic border crisis now entering its fourth record-smashing year, some Republican lawmakers named a significant enabling culprit other than the usual Mexican cartel smugglers.
	They named the U.S. taxpayer-funded United Nations as essentially a co-smuggler after seeing my reports that the U.N. was handing out debit cards and cash vouchers to illegal border crossers on their way north.
	Again, this is from technocracy.news.
	It says, one outraged group of 21 border security-minded lawmakers, Republicans, even pitched a bill that required the United States, the UN's largest donor, to turn off the taxpayer money spigot.
	But it never caught fire.
	And we had the media say, well, this is not true.
	We need to keep funding the UN. But it's the same thing that Congress is doing with Department of Homeland Security and Border Patrol and Majorca.
	Chip always said, well, we're going to go before the cameras and say we need to impeach him, but we're still giving him money.
	We're going to complain about what the UN is doing in terms of giving all this money to people to pay for their way to come in.
	But we're going to continue to fund the UN. Now the UN's 2024 update to the Regional Refugee and Migrant Response Plan, a planning and budget document for handing out nearly $1.6 billion, And 17 Latin American countries can cast a broad confirming light on the cash giveaways and much more aid for 2024 ahead.
	So now we've got the document.
	This came out in December, and we see their budget, $1.6 million to do this.
	And the money's being handed out in prepaid, rechargeable debit cards.
	Sometimes they give them cash in envelopes, bank transfers, mobile transfers.
	The $372 million in planned cash giveaways to 624,000 immigrants is still only a part of of a much broader UN hemisphere-wide vision that aims to spend an additional $1.6 billion assisting the 3 million people in 17 countries.
	Most of this will be in destination recipients, but a rising share of the cash will go to the people who are in transit.
	So these caravans are being organized and funded.
	By the UN, by NGOs, as, again, many people at the border have reported, Michael Jan especially.
	So what's the game plan for 2024?
	130 page UN plan, RMRP 2024, went public in December and is readily accessible online as is the original 2023-2024 plan and he's got links to both of those. So if you want to go to Technocracy News you can see those links. Some 57 international organizations would manage the handouts of 273 million while 132
	NGOs and civil service organizations would handle an additional 70 million.
	Fifteen U.N. agencies would get the lion's share of $1.2 billion.
	They're the ones who are financing this.
	They're the ones who are organizing it.
	And they're the ones that we keep giving money to.
	The document makes it clear in writing that the U.N. and these partners know that their endeavor aids, abets, and makes possible the onward movement of migrants...
	Who intend to illegally cross borders, especially into the United States.
	So, most of it is going, he said in this, the launch pads that send 450,000 people through the Darien Gap, the Jungle Passage in Panama.
	They are handing out vouchers to migrants in Colombia and Ecuador who began to go through that.
	And again, it's the NGO partners, as we've been told.
	But now we've got the document.
	So will the Republicans focus on this?
	Or will this be saber-rattling?
	Will the right-wing media talk about the fact this is all a UN globalist plan to destroy this country?
	So it all depends on how we perceive this and how we report this.
	Whether it's going to be a win or whether it's going to be a loss.
	We're going to take a quick break. When we come back, we're going to talk about the farmers in Europe.
	We're going to talk about what is going on with the Canadian truckers, because there's more than just the judge's decision that is there.
	Now we're seeing some more details, and we're starting to see who was behind this.
	And then we'll talk about the cars, as that narrative is really beginning to collapse.
	You see, the power resides with us.
	They can have their mandates...
	They tell us that we've got to put masks on our face and injections into our arms.
	But if we refuse to do it, they back down.
	Now, they've not removed any of these things that they put on there, and that's the troubling part of it.
	But we should also realize that when people just said, I don't want to do this anymore.
	And then they walked away.
	We didn't take this back.
	We didn't, you know, push them back.
	We just kind of left it there.
	Left this thing that's going to come back to haunt us.
	But it also showed that we do have the power.
	We just don't finish the job.
	We walked away from all this stuff.
	People are walking away from the electric vehicles and things like that.
	But we need to put a nail in this coffin.
	We need to put the stake through these vampires' hearts because they're going to come out again the next dark winter.
	We'll be right back.
	Here's your news now at APSradionews.com or get the APS Radio app and never miss another story.
	This is the APS Radio app.
	Thanks for watching.
	Bye.
	the
	Making sense.
	comment again you're listening to the David night show well before I get into the farmers let me think all of you who contributed yesterday in tips And we had a tip at the very end of the show that was very, very generous.
	And thank you to Junk Silver, who matched those.
	And I just wanted to say between that and I've got a bunch of letters that we have here.
	We finally got to the mail for about 10 or 11 days or so.
	We couldn't get out of the driveway.
	But... I just want to say thank you so much to everyone.
	We're at 79%, and so we have moved the gas gauge.
	I think it's at one-eighth increment, so I think we got it at 75%.
	But we're just under 80%, and I wanted to thank everybody for your kind support.
	And I wanted to read a couple of these comments that people have made.
	Before we do, on Rumble, Flumph76 says, But David, all the elites really hate Trump.
	And that's all the proof you need that Trump is real.
	It's not kabuki theater at all, is it?
	Yeah, that's right. You're absolutely right.
	On Rumble, KWD68, Trump has picked awful people.
	Birds of a feather. Yeah, it is very telling, isn't it, when...
	His cabinet was made up of environmentalists, bankers, especially bankers, and the military-industrial complex.
	What do we think we're going to get out of that?
	Again, the old axiom is personnel or policy.
	So what does that tell you about his policy?
	Oh, well, he's not a globalist.
	He just fills his cabinet with them.
	So some people commented in a similar way.
	This is from the Sellers family.
	Writing this while listening to you tear up Trump.
	The Lord has called you to this.
	Don't stop. Praying for your...
	Praying for your saltiness?
	I can't make out the last word there, but thank you.
	Maybe it is saltiness.
	I don't know. Sometimes I get too salty, and I regret the things that I say.
	But this is also another person who writes, and I won't mention the name, because she says, as many listeners have pointed out, too many people refuse to open their eyes.
	My mom and husband are two of many in my life.
	But my three sons get it, though.
	Yeehaw! And this is from Pat, who says, I don't know how I stumbled on your show, but I'm glad I did.
	Your breath of fresh air, he says, I believe and agree with virtually 100% of what you say.
	I've learned a great deal from watching your shows, especially about Trump, even though I've known more about him.
	Than anyone else that I know.
	He says no one wants to look.
	No one wants to really know the truth, I guess.
	People either hate him for no real reason or they love him and they follow him blindly.
	And let me just say, you know, it's the desperation, right?
	They feel that if they don't have Trump, they don't have any hope.
	And so what is the basis of that desperation?
	It's the idea that's been sold now finally to conservatives as well as to liberals that everything needs to be fixed in Washington.
	Washington is not the solution.
	Washington is the problem. Reagan was right about that, but of course, you know, he didn't do the right thing about it, but he was right about that.
	And that used to be the perspective of conservatives, but now they believe that Washington can fix our problems.
	Washington is the problem, and Washington can fix the problem.
	How many times do you see federal agencies investigate themselves and say, yeah, that's right, let's go throw ourselves in jail, or let's fire ourselves, you know, the FBI or whatever?
	That isn't going to happen.
	And so people need to understand that their political hope needs to be closer to them, We're good to go.
	To the state level, to the county level, to the local level, your influence in what is happening grows and grows.
	Not to say that there's going to be a perfect solution there, but I'm just trying to redirect people to something that is going to be more practical for them.
	But ultimately, your hope is not in politics, right?
	Your hope is in God. And that's how I said you need to start with yourself, right?
	Get things right there.
	And then start moving out, you know, from yourself to your family, to your community, that type of thing.
	Instead, we think that we can fix all of our problems From the top down.
	And that is the essence of this frustration.
	The continuing centralization of control where they micromanage everything in our life.
	We just want to get them out.
	Well, the way to get them out is to do it locally.
	He goes on to say, Pat goes on to say, your last show that I saw anyway was an in-depth examination.
	Of course, these are, I don't know how far back these letters go.
	An in-depth examination of Trump and his buddy Epstein.
	It was eye-opening. I knew he was a playboy, but didn't realize what a predatory sleazebag he really is.
	So, yeah.
	As a matter of fact, you look at this trial that happened, this part two of E. Jean Carroll.
	And they already had the trial once before, and the jury found for her that he had sexually assaulted or raped her.
	I haven't followed it all that closely.
	And then he immediately started trashing her and defamed her as well.
	And then he started trashing her again, so she filed another defamation thing.
	So in this particular trial, it was very important for him to testify.
	And his lawyers, who walked away from it, said, this is idiotic.
	But he did testify.
	Before he took the stand...
	The judge, who is definitely against, I don't think the judge is impartial, but he is more than fed up with Trump.
	He turned to the jury and he said, first of all, he's been convicted of this in a previous trial and he doesn't get any do-overs.
	And so we're just talking about this defamation thing here.
	But then he described, he went further than that, he described in very Explicit detail, what I'm not going to say, I'm not going to say it on this show, but it was the kind of explicit detail that you would expect in one of these LGBT libraries.
	Where you'd have a parent who stands up and reads from one of these books, and immediately the adults in the room at the school board tell them to shut up and sit down.
	You're not going to use that kind of language in here.
	Well, that judge used that kind of language.
	And describing in detail what Trump was accused of doing to her, And convicted of.
	And so, I guess he kind of basically took away Trump's talking points, and Trump only talked for three minutes.
	And that was done.
	So, I don't know. It's going to be...
	When you look at it, though, the big context of all this...
	Is everything that he has always said and done when he was a playboy, when he was there in the 90s, when he was hanging out with Epstein, when they were using these beauty contests or Victoria's Secret thing to have their parties, whether they're on the island or whether they're in Epstein's mansion.
	It was... Disgusting.
	Disgusting to see it.
	Mary, thank you Mary, who writes, I'm at peace knowing you all had a short break of one week vacation that was between Christmas and New Year's, away from the series of deeply troubling news.
	And so she said, pace yourself now.
	And take periodic mini-vacations from the David Knight Show.
	Your first priority is your health and your family.
	And yeah, we may do that.
	Every time I do it, I feel guilty having Gard or Tony fill in for me because I know how busy they are as well.
	And Gard winds up continually doing his show, doing my show.
	And three hours a day is a heavy lift.
	But we will do some more of that, and so you will be seeing more of Gard, because he does a great job with that.
	And I don't have a problem with Gard doing the show, except the work burden that it puts onto him.
	So this is from another listener, Bob, who says, Thanks for all your hard work and good instruction.
	You helped me be wise to the shots, the mask, and Trump.
	Well, thank you. That really does help.
	I really do appreciate it when people tell me that.
	Because that was my motivation.
	It wasn't just to own Trump or to oppose him out of some personal vendetta or grudge.
	It really bothers me to see people being taken advantage of.
	Doesn't it bother you? I know it does.
	You can't look at how people are being exploited and And not feel something.
	I think everybody feels that.
	Once you have seen past the fraud, you've got to tell other people about it.
	And so that's really what motivates me.
	Anyway, he says, I also have a lot of trouble with people who should know better, but don't.
	And the problem is that there are...
	There are a lot of people who do know better and do it anyway.
	Says, I miss your Miata introduction, where I used to have the engine revving there.
	I'm a mobile mechanic and would be happy to fix your motor.
	Could even slightly increase the power.
	Well, thank you, Bob. And he gives me his phone number, but he's in San Antonio.
	I don't know... I'd done pretty much everything to my car that I could think of to make it better handling and more fun to drive.
	But I didn't change the motor because I looked at it like, well, you know, I don't really need that kind of speed.
	It's not what a Miata is for, straight line acceleration.
	And if you get too heavy into that, Some of these things like flying Miata, they'll squeeze a Corvette V8 into a Miata, and it just changes the character of the car completely.
	And you have to change the clutch out, and you've got to do all kinds of stuff like that.
	It's like, I don't want to lose that part of it.
	So I kind of focus just on the handling and doing some things in the interior.
	But I know when I was looking at it that, yeah, there's a lot of engine swaps, and people do that all the time to get more horsepower.
	I just don't know what I'm going to do with it at this point in time.
	They won over $3,000, but I think that mechanic that we...
	It broke down the way to church on Christmas Eve, and so we just had it towed to the nearest place that insurance would cover, and And then to get it back to here, we found somebody that would do it for a third of the price that they were quoting us for.
	So I know their prices are high, and I certainly don't have the time or the skills to do it myself.
	But I appreciate the offer.
	Thank you. Another person writes, I appreciate your testimony and your stance for the Lord Jesus Christ, thus this gift.
	Here is a gift toward your family's needs in 2024.
	Please don't mention my name. This is a gift.
	Just mention that if half the show's listeners' households donated $5 per month, David and family could have a less stressful program because they're well worth their labor.
	Well, thank you so much. Surely the Lord will provide, but we must step out of faith too if David is to continue to edify us.
	Perhaps the show could afford to remain viable longer with the backup of a shortwave broadcast.
	Yeah, we're looking at ways that we might be able to get this out.
	He also mentions Mueller.
	He says, Many thanks for that reminder, among others.
	George Mueller. Amazing story for anybody.
	His life story and testimony that his life story is true is the fame that he had throughout England, even Charles Dickens.
	Well, I've got to see if this guy is for real, right?
	It goes there. And, you know, he's got this big orphanage and he's taking care of a lot of people because children were just being abandoned, as you see all the time in Charles Dickens' story.
	That was the way it was in England at the time, that poverty and the Industrial Revolution.
	And so he goes there and George Mueller says, hey, you know, and he has a couple of kids show him around.
	He doesn't, you know, anything he wants to see, show him what he wants to see.
	And he didn't have anything to hide.
	And Charles Dickens was amazed.
	And when he died, the people of Bristol turned out in force.
	Thousands and thousands of people at a time when the population was not that big.
	So people had seen his life and you need to see his diary because in his diary he was somebody that had amazing answers to prayer.
	Amazing answers to prayer.
	And I find it as encouraging as anything I've ever read.
	So, anyway, I would greatly encourage that.
	And I wanted to mention that at a time when people were struggling and looking that they may lose their jobs.
	And I have a letter here that I seem to have misplaced that was from a couple that said that they were having, here it is, here it is.
	What they wrote was they said, this is Kevin and Kathy, I'll just give the first name, said, we're going to have to support you in a different manner for now.
	I'm being laid off starting March the 1st.
	Lord Jesus will have me working somewhere, doing something.
	I have not missed a meal, except by my own doing for 58 years.
	And he says, God has this, an uppercase.
	And so I want you, he says, we'll continue to pray for you, but let's pray for Kevin and Kathy.
	We know that God sees their need, and we know that God will provide for them.
	And the key thing is that you're going to see God's provision working for you.
	We've been through good times and tough times.
	And as we went through a tough time, I had a pastor who said, you know, it's good for people to go through this.
	He said, also, I see people who are in their own business and they struggle with things.
	He said, and they see God's provision in a way that somebody who's got a job, let's say the post office, because that's job security.
	And the way that the post office doesn't see God working in their lives.
	And that's the key thing. And that's why we have difficult situations like that.
	But Kevin and Kathy, I think you're going to see God working in His provision.
	I think you're going to see Him providing for you what you need to get through, and you're going to see it just in time.
	And for those people who trust Him and honor Him, He does that.
	We're going to take a quick break.
	We'll be right back..
	... In
	a world of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	Looking for better information?
	APSRadioNews.com features articles and commentary, along with audio from all the top news from around the world.
	APSRadioNews.com Alright, welcome back.
	In the time we have, we've got about ten minutes before Tony joins us here.
	I want to talk a little bit about the farmers because they're not getting nearly as much attention as they deserve in the UK and in Scotland and throughout the EU. And there is a massive rising as they realize what is happening.
	The issue is, though, why doesn't the public rise up with them?
	And we know why this information is being suppressed by the media.
	Scottish farmers are getting pushed to the limit, they say, and we have had enough.
	This is from the expose.
	They say, in the Scottish countryside, the rallying cry is, it's happening.
	And it echoes, as farmers join the waves of protests happening across Europe, their grievances are diverse, but the common thread is dissatisfaction with the status quo.
	And as they point out, when you look at the Marxist tactics, this has always been a Marxist tactic.
	They talk about Stalin, but of course we could say the same thing about Mao.
	Taking people out of the cities and putting them into the farms and creating starvation.
	They don't know what they're doing. It's always about dominating people and starving people.
	Stalin called the Ukrainian farmers enemies of the state.
	The dictator wanted both to replace Ukraine's small farms with state-run collectives and to punish independent-minded Ukrainians who posed a threat to totalitarian authority.
	By expropriating the farms, the state took control of food production and as a result, an estimated 3.9 to 7 million people starved to death.
	The halamador, right?
	And when you go back and you look at what Thomas Jefferson wrote about, he says it's very important, you know, the farmer, the agrarian society is very important.
	It's not just the backbone of society because of food, but it's also that self-reliance and that independence and the mindset that comes with that.
	That was what Stalin was after, as I point out.
	He was after the food.
	To make people dependent on his power, but he's also there to destroy the people who were independent-minded.
	The Ukrainian famine was a clear case of man-made famine.
	It was described as a hybrid.
	A famine caused by calamitous social-economic policies and one that was aimed at a particular population for repression or for punishment.
	But again, we've seen this over and over again.
	Mao used the same tactics in many different ways.
	Now, 100 years later, governments across Europe are targeting farmers primarily in the name of climate change and green policies.
	But again, as I said before, Marxism, this green agenda is just watermelon Marxism.
	It's all red on the inside with a thin veneer of green on the exterior.
	And so this is what it's looking like.
	Look at this. Look at this picture.
	These are tractors and vehicles and people, as far as you can see.
	And they're coming in and they're dumping, as you can see right there, manure and hay.
	Very messy stuff.
	This is an excrement hits the fan scenario.
	And they've got hoses full of excrement.
	It's like, you don't like what comes out of our cows?
	Well, we're going to give it to you good and hard.
	Look at that. It truly is amazing.
	This is not being talked about at all in the press.
	Instead, we're talking about Trump's trials.
	And the Trump coronation.
	He's so popular, we don't even need to have any more elections.
	Let's just, you know, vote him in by popular acclaim.
	And it shows, again, how the parties rig all of this stuff.
	And so you got not just the Scottish farmers, but you got farmers rebelling in Germany and France, Italy, Romania, Poland, Lithuania.
	Of course, the Dutch farmers have been doing this for a while.
	Irish farmers. Here are some more protests in Europe.
	Look at that. They've completely blocked the road with tractors.
	Amazing to see what is happening with that.
	And yet, crickets from the media here.
	And then one more.
	And this is the scenario where it really hits the fan.
	They brought in, as you saw, pictures there.
	They brought in trucks full of manure, and they're just spraying it all over the place.
	Well, in this particular place...
	I forget where this was.
	This is a government...
	This is an archway, an elaborate archway going into a government facility here, I think, and they're just covering it with manure and cheering as they're doing it.
	Yes, it has hit the fan.
	The question is, why are they being ignored?
	As some people pointed out, the German farmers...
	Went to the trouble of putting their slogans on placards in English, not in German, because they wanted to get the media attention.
	And English is the closest thing we have to an international language at the moment.
	But even though they put these signs that said, no fuel, no food, no future, it's all been ignored, especially by the mainstream media.
	And we know that they're the servants of globalism.
	Trump is supposed to be completely different, but of course you just look at what he does and not what he says.
	But they are not saying anything at all about this.
	Producers are seemingly given particularly strict instructions on what to and what not to report in the news, as we know.
	We've seen this for the longest time.
	So we're going to focus on everything except that.
	It has proven true many times over that food supply is perhaps an even more delicate and important strategic sector than heavy industry.
	I talked about how the Green Agenda shut down the last big steel plant in the UK and Wales yesterday.
	Food is far more important than that.
	And you know, the interesting thing to me is all of my life, you would have these complaints from American farmers or others who are trying to sell into a particular market, and they talk about how in France they're protecting with subsidies the farmers or the Netherlands or whatever, how they pick an industry, like maybe it's the cheese industry or something in France, and it's like, well, We're going to heavily subsidize the farmers who are producing cheese, and we're going to keep other people out.
	Now, that part of that is the same kind of protectionism that you see with industry.
	But a large part of it was they would always make the excuse, whether they believed it or not, that we've got to be able to grow our own food.
	And so we're going to subsidize heavily our farmers and try to keep this going.
	Now they're all focused on doing exactly the opposite.
	And it is true.
	You need to be able to be self-sufficient in food.
	I'm not arguing for government subsidies, but I'm just saying they've gone from subsidizing it to attacking it, because they really are attacking our food.
	The Great Peasant Wars of the 15th and 16th centuries were fought for exactly the same reasons as this.
	In that century and a half, in addition to literally pulling the rug out from underneath the peasants, the daily working hours doubled and the income was cut in half.
	The global power economy and the collaborationist power structures of Europe increasingly subordinated to it are forcing this now, and the outcome of the conflict is still unpredictable.
	But the entire European system is on the verge of collapse.
	It is a suicidal government.
	And if you look at the EU at the very beginning, well, from the very beginning, they were controlling things like that.
	And it got to the point, just before Brexit, as I point out many times, they told the British people, you can't fish in your own waters, where the British had fished for over a thousand years.
	We're not going to let you do that.
	And that type of thing was what drove Brexit.
	And so there is a lot of change that is happening at the substrate level.
	And when we look at what is happening in our country, this is a combination of coming after the food, but also doing what I pointed out yesterday, Catherine Austin Fitts saying, the elites are moving into real assets.
	Things like railroads and land and other things like that.
	Gold and silver. Bill Gates set up 20 shell companies to hide the purchase of $113 million worth of farmland just in Nebraska.
	And so these are some people who went through the records.
	Some of this is coming from a journalism school.
	With names like Willow Dell Farms, Merrick County Farms, Dove Haven Ranch, Champion Valley Farm, Schroeder Family Farms, and many more, all concentrated in northeast Nebraska.
	But when they started going through them, they said, well, it looks like they're owned by foreign corporations.
	But they went a little bit farther.
	They said they had addresses that went to an office park that housed a dentist, lawyers, and until recently, a farmland investment startup called Agco A. It was owned by the Canadian Pension Plan Investment Board, but in 2017, they offloaded a half-billion-dollar chunk of it, Including 22,830 acres of Nebraska land.
	The buyer of those unassuming sounding Nebraska farms wasn't publicly listed until now.
	The financial details of the transaction and the gargantuan loan that he's taking out against it have been publicly unknown, but now we know it was Bill Gates.
	The Flatwater Free Press analyzed five years of land sale data between 2018 and 2022 and And they said if that data had included the year 2017, when Gates first made a big purchase, then he would have been the top buyer of all Nebraska agricultural land by money spent.
	As a matter of fact, if you take it back to 2017, he has spent more than double the second place buyer.
	And he's put it into shell companies and limited liability companies that are buried under layer after layer after the same kind of stuff that Zelensky did in order to buy these luxury properties with the money that he's funneling off of the billions that we give him.
	So this is, farmland is one of Bill Gates' biggest financial investments, they said.
	Well, not biggest. Pharmaceutical is even bigger.
	But he is moving, like Catherine Austin and Fitz point out, he and Warren Buffett and many others are moving into tangible assets as they want you to invest in things like stocks and crypto and other things like that that may be very vulnerable to To the types of tricks that they're about to play in this economic reset.
	So Tony Arterman is ready to join us, and we're going to talk to Tony about this and some other things.
	So we will take a quick break, and we're going to be right back.

	Feed it with our devotion, boys.
	Call it the Liberty Tree.
	It's a tall old tree and a strong old tree.
	And we are the sons, yes we are the sons, the sons of liberty.
	The American Legion of Soldiers
	Liberty. It's your move.
	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	All right, welcome back. And Tony Ardman is joining us now, a big supporter of the show.
	And Tony has Wise Wolf Gold, gold and silver.
	And he has set up to support the show.
	He set up davidknight.gold.
	If you go there, they'll take you to Wise Wolf and let him know that you came through us.
	But thank you for joining us, Tony.
	Things are getting really crazy now, aren't they?
	Well, absolutely, Craig.
	That's the order of the day, David.
	Thanks for having me.
	It's a rare Friday appearance on the show.
	I appreciate you being flexible with my schedule.
	I've been back and forth between Texas and Branson.
	And yeah, things are accelerating, David, across the spectrum, politically, economically, socially, spiritually.
	We're in the thick of it, sir.
	Yeah. Oh, yeah. And I think it's only going to go faster.
	We're going to be picking up speed as we come down that 2029 deadline that they've got for this stuff, you know, so they can have their society in there by 2030.
	Yeah, I think it's going to really accelerate from this point.
	And speaking of acceleration, what do things look like on the financial front?
	Oh, well, you know, we've had the introduction of the Bitcoin ETFs, and I had a great interview the other day on the Wise Wolf Golden Crypto Show with the gentleman who wrote the book, Rigged.
	It's about how they rigged the gold and silver markets, Stuart Englert.
	And he was on my podcast, and he said, well, you know, they introduced the Bitcoin ETFs so they can manipulate Bitcoin.
	And I hadn't really thought of it that way.
	I knew that it was a way for the financial markets to keep sort of clean, their customers don't have to actually own physical Bitcoin, so they're not part of the crypto space and they can invest in it.
	But he's absolutely right.
	And I thought, wow, I don't know why that escaped me.
	But that's how they manipulate the gold and silver markets is through the ETFs, And he said, that's the poison pill.
	So they're endorsing it.
	It's a kiss of death.
	You get Larry Fink to say, oh, Bitcoin's a store of value, but don't own it.
	You need to own it through us.
	We're the custodian of that.
	So I started to really put that together because I was trying to figure out what message are they sending here?
	And it is, I don't know why I ever think positively.
	It's always sinister with the bankster class.
	Oh, yeah. And when was it?
	Was that in 2017 when they started doing some institutional?
	I forget what it was that changed with Bitcoin, but they were bragging about the fact that institutions are going to start investing in this now because something, I forget what changed.
	But what you saw was a pump and then a dump.
	And, you know, so that's when it went up.
	It was a high at that time, went up like 17 or 18, and then they dumped it down really low, and it stayed there for quite a while.
	That's why when I looked at this, I thought, well, it kind of seems like they might do that same type of thing again.
	I know there's other things happening in terms of the halving that is coming up, you know, where they change the way that, you know, the reward that you have for mining it and that type of stuff.
	But it seems like whenever Wall Street gets involved, there's going to be something really sinister in it.
	And as you point out, that ETF is just like the paper gold and paper silver and how they manipulate that market.
	And it really doesn't make any sense if you stop and think about a crypto thing.
	It's not going to physically transfer anything.
	You know, what's the purpose of having the ETF? Sometimes they'll say, well, you know, you can buy a fraction of it and you can do it through your broker, so maybe it's easier to do it that way.
	I don't know. It just seemed like a solution in search of a problem.
	Right. But again, in Bitcoin, there's 100 million Satoshis for each Bitcoin.
	So it's divisible by 100 million. So you can buy fractional pieces of Bitcoin all day long, and it's easy to buy.
	So the fact that I think they're hijacking it.
	There was an article also Zero Hedge was covering about the politicization of CBDC is coming in for this election.
	And, you know, I wonder if if Jared Kushner is upset with Donald Trump for going against the CBDC that he was pushing during the Trump administration.
	I mean, I know what your take on this is, David, but it looks like, especially in the United States, they are politicizing and putting in the left-right paradigm.
	It's partisan now, the central bank digital currency.
	What a... You know, we know what the Democratic Party is now, but what a steep fall from the party of Jefferson and Andrew Jackson, right?
	And William Jennings Bryan.
	And that's the thing, you know, when...
	To be embracing the banksters.
	Yeah, yeah. Going to crucify us instead of on a cross of gold arm.
	On a cross at CBDC. But yeah, that was why I remember when RFK Jr.
	came out. I'd been talking about CBDC for a while.
	And I said, this is good because he's coming out against CBDC and he understands the issue.
	And that could help it from becoming a partisan issue.
	Because if it becomes a partisan issue, that's really going to hurt us.
	But now it's become a partisan issue.
	And when Trump talked about it, he didn't have any sense of what CBDC was.
	As one person said, well, I guess the people around him did enough analytics that they realize this is something he needs to mention.
	It's one thing to say it.
	That's another thing to do it if you're a candidate you have to align with people on the issues that they're concerned about but then of course doing something about it I don't really think that that's going to happen he didn't seem to have any sense of what it was I remember when DeSantis Came out and talked about it early on in his campaign.
	And he had a 20-minute press conference where he talked about, and he had a sign that said, Big Brother Digital Money.
	And he laid out all the problems with it.
	And then the first question is, yes, but what about Donald Trump's indictment in Manhattan, you know?
	And that's all it is.
	It's all really just about that.
	So his people, it's another checkpoint for some of the people who may be paying a slight attention to the issues, but they don't really pay any attention to his character.
	But it's going to just be about him.
	Right, and this goes back to the 2016 campaign style where they had 5,000 data points on every American who used Facebook through Cambridge Analytica.
	I'll give a shout out to my friend Billy Ray Valentine who's done excellent research on this.
	So they're handing him talking points.
	It's not popular, especially on the right.
	People that are paying attention, it's not popular to have central bank digital currency.
	So, you know, again, I voted for Donald Trump in 2016 because I wanted a border, and instead I got a new world order.
	So I'm not trusting that.
	We put President Fauci in charge and did Operation Warp Speed in a lockdown mail-in ballot election.
	So, you know, pardon me if I'm not getting excited about 2024 and the prospects.
	You know, I can get Nuki Haley, or I've got Donald Trump.
	Well, you're just going to get me away from her.
	This is my part two. They're just going to inaugurate him, coronate him.
	You know, that's what the RNC said. Let's just declare him.
	The primaries are over. Who cares about any of this stuff, right?
	Yeah, I love that.
	Instead of a border, I got a new world order.
	Or we could say, I got an executive order.
	Right, right. That locked me down.
	He didn't lock down the border.
	He locked me down. He said, I'm not essential instead of deplorable.
	What's the big difference with all that stuff?
	Yeah. And I remember, you know, along those same lines, talking about just Billy Ray Valentine talking about how they did Cambridge Analytica, looking at the analytics.
	What do people want to hear? And see, that's the beauty.
	That's what social media was designed for.
	It was designed so they could not only put out a narrative of propaganda, but they could instantly see if it's working.
	And see what everybody believes, what everybody wants, and you just feed that, okay?
	And also fine-tune your narrative.
	But I remember when he was running, I remember going through the health care plan, because Obamacare was another one of the big issues at the time.
	And I remember looking at that, and he had about 12 to 15 different points on there.
	there. They were all excellent. They were all about market reform and transparency so people could see what the hospitals were doing and make an evaluation in terms of the quality of health care as well as the cost of health care, empower people with the ability to make these purchases and so forth. And as soon as he got elected, they deep-sixed that down the memory hole and you never saw it again. I even went back to look for it. I couldn't find it anywhere. I didn't have the title of it so I could
	look for it on the Wayback Machine and it was completely gone from all the stuff.
	And instead, what did we get?
	We got medical martial law.
	You know, we got the worst health care we've ever had in this country because it was dictated by Donald Trump from Washington, you know, and he dictated it by paying these people to do this stuff.
	It's amazing just how opposite it all went, but...
	Absolutely opposite.
	And it's bizarre to me, and I'm not partisan, I'm not political right now, because there's nothing for me to support other than local and grassroots movements.
	But it is bizarre to me to see, even in alternative media, we're doing this again.
	And I don't know how to process it, David.
	I don't know how... Intellectually, like, I can look at somebody and say, well, you're a journalist.
	You research. You know what happened, but we're going to do this again.
	And I don't understand it.
	I know that it takes away people's hope, and I guess, you know, financially it's stupid for me to be opposed to the MAGA movement and all, but I understand what it tracks back to.
	I know the root and genesis of it is really not about any of the key issues.
	It's more about directing those people.
	I mean, If we were going to win, I thought we were supposed to get tired of winning.
	Remember? I was supposed to get tired of winning.
	Instead, I got locked down.
	I was told I was not essential.
	Hundreds of thousands of businesses squashed.
	The supply chain destroyed.
	We've had cognitive damage to children, unlike anything seen in modern times.
	I mean, don't get me started with the warp speed injection.
	I mean, it's all bad.
	And so I don't know how I can process that.
	So I'm not... I'm not in this political.
	My wheelhouse is, do you realize what's happening to your currency?
	Do you realize that we're about to shift into a completely new system and you're going to get left behind if you're paying attention to the old?
	That's really what I feel like my calling is right now.
	We can talk politics to the blue in the face.
	It's such a pageant.
	Speaking of pageant, you've got Nikki Haley.
	She was kicked out of the pageant in the 80s, but she's back in this one.
	She's allowed now.
	It is really just ridiculous, David.
	Yeah, politics is Ugly celebrities that are out there.
	Yeah, it's a Hollywood for ugly people.
	So she's our ugly celebrity.
	She's gotten pretty ugly with things.
	I think it's interesting that she's got to go to South Carolina to the people that she just threw under the bus, calling them bigoted Deep South people who had elected her twice.
	And now she's got to go back and try to get votes from them a third time.
	It's going to be interesting to see, I think.
	Maybe she would support ending all the primaries at this point.
	I don't know. But, yeah, when we look at it, as I was saying before, and as I point out yesterday, you know, Catherine Austin Fitts said, you look at people like Bill Gates and how he's out there scarfing up land everywhere, Warren Buffett with railroads, massive purchases of gold and silver.
	They would like to get you into things that are encumbered with debt, whether you're talking about the U.S. dollar or whether you're talking about the stock market or even heavily mortgaged property.
	And so they would like to have you there while they start to accumulate all this stuff because, you know, if everybody wants to go out and get hard assets and tangible assets and things like that, that's more competition for them.
	But I think, you know, the more we look at this, the more, the better gold and silver, things like that look to me because, again, it is a hard asset.
	It's got real intrinsic value.
	And it's something that has anonymity, unlike the property.
	With all the shell companies, guess what?
	They figured out what he's got.
	Besides the foundation of Christianity in the West, we have the idea of private property, and that's what's driven our civilization.
	But if you fast forward to the creation of the World Economic Forum, you're supposed to own nothing and be happy.
	There's an ownership society they want to create, just a few owners.
	That's what a 15-minute city is all about.
	If you think about it, a 15-minute city sounds convenient.
	It could be within 15 minutes of everything.
	Who owns the things?
	Because there's going to be blocked out.
	It's just like when you create a new shopping center or a mall.
	Those owners, those builders go in and they find one store that's going to fit this parameter.
	And that's what they're going to do.
	It's not diversity.
	It's not decentralization, it's centralization that they're doing.
	You talk about the housing, Vanguard, BlackRock, now Facebook, other Silicon Valley overlords are buying up residential property.
	That's right. That's right.
	You are being, we the American people, and especially in the West, we're being pushed out of ownership of real tangible assets.
	And that's because who controls the tangible assets.
	This is a game.
	And when you talk about it's life and death in a lot of ways because it's musical chairs with your entire destiny, whether you have anything to say at the end of the day.
	So anything of value at the end.
	And that's what these people are doing.
	They're pushing us out of real ownership.
	And that's why I keep telling people pay attention to the currency game.
	They're getting out of currency, putting it into hard assets.
	That's why they're looking, they're searching for to park it somewhere, you know, and, and BlackRock's in charge of trillions upon trillions of dollars.
	And we look at what is happening with the stock market.
	They can, they can, you know, pump this stuff up and get everybody, Hey, you know, get into It's maybe volatile and who knows what's going to happen with it, but hey, look, it's going up, so jump onto that.
	There's the fear of missing out.
	Everybody pours into that.
	They take their profits and go buy tangible assets, go buy our homes so that we have no place to, you know, no home ownership.
	That's the key thing. You say 15 minutes, everything's so convenient.
	No, there won't be anything. You'll be 15 minutes from nothing.
	You know, There'll be nothing really that you want or nothing that you can do.
	And if there's something that happens to be somewhere else, you're not going to be able to go there either.
	But, of course, the thing that gives us variety and gives us choice is competition and mobility and all these different things.
	So when you shut all that stuff down, these 15-minute open-air prisons are not going to have anything in them, as you point out.
	It's going to be some kind of a generic...
	You know, everything will be just generic because they're going to have some kind of a concession from the government that controls it all.
	The combined wealth of BlackRock and Vanguard and some of these other oligarchs in the WEF I mean,
	what is that?
	And then I have Stuart Angler on my show, and he goes, well, it's because they're manipulating with detail.
	Oh, I see. I get it now.
	Because I was trying to find the angle.
	What's the angle? What's the angle?
	Because it has to be an angle, right?
	Because they're not about free markets.
	They don't want you to own anything.
	I doubt they want you to be happy either.
	I think they want you to shut up.
	I think they want you to be anesthetized.
	Take some Soma in the New World Order.
	That's what this is all about.
	Buy some Fang stocks because Jim Cramer told you so.
	That's where we are right now.
	People need... It is saddening to watch because we're getting ready to do 2016 Part 2, The Reckoning, and people are getting behind that again.
	I don't know what to say because the country, look at the departure of any sort of normality or sanity, David.
	I mean, it's... Yeah, I've never seen anything like this.
	I mean, just on the political spectrum, you know, the fact that you're going to just say, well, we're going to kick everybody off the ballot except for Biden in Florida.
	Then, you know, other places they kicked Biden off because he tried to leapfrog, you know, New Hampshire tried to leapfrog their thing.
	But then now the RNC is the craziest thing.
	Well, let's just forget all the rest of the primaries.
	Let's just have them in there. They've already, you know, trashed all the debates.
	They didn't talk about anything of any substance anyway in the debates.
	It's always just a rehash of the same issues they've been talking about for the last 60 years, and they never say anything.
	But they're not even going to go through the motions of pretending to have debates and elections and all the rest of this stuff.
	It truly is amazing, and it is another testimony of the fact that everything is just being...
	You know, swept away. And the financial system is going to be a big part of that as well.
	It's going to happen the same way.
	One day they're going to say, well, let's just forget about all this and we'll just do something completely different.
	That's what you have to watch for.
	There's pushback on CBDC. We've got some grassroots.
	It's entered the consciousness of at least a percentage of voters that makes it appealing for the people to hand Donald Trump a note to say, hey, you're against this.
	So I'm glad we've made some inroads.
	But they will find a way.
	And crisis is usually the way.
	It's one of the people to watch for.
	Because it will be used, the crisis will be used as an opportunity to get people to ask for it.
	I mean, that's really generally the rule of how all of this works.
	You're going to have to ask for it.
	But it is like my friend Charlie Robinson says, CBDC is the hill to die on.
	Yeah, it is. I'm broadcasting more because of it.
	I've made myself do more shows and more appearances because it's not just about getting your hands on physical precious metals or something without counterparty risk outside of the system.
	You need to understand the dangers of what they're building.
	And I don't know that political...
	If we know... If we believe this is a selection, does it really matter if people are against it on a national level?
	I think what really works is what we're seeing, which is real solutions, like Senator Nicely in Tennessee, the state reserve system for having a gold and silver bank for exchange.
	Same thing in Texas, making gold and silver legal tender in different states.
	That has momentum.
	That's good. That's what we should get behind right now.
	because that's going to make it available for us to still live our lives and still have somewhat, some modicum of liberty.
	And see, that's one of the things too, when we look at this map and all these different states saying we're going to side with Texas.
	That's the important thing for people to change their focus from Washington to looking at, well, maybe we can fix this at the state level.
	I see that as the most positive thing coming out of this.
	And again, you're talking about Senator Nicely, and it's not just Senator Nicely in Tennessee.
	There's other people in other states throughout the South, typically, where they are looking at this and they're realizing, hey, this whole thing is going to just, you know, it's going to collapse.
	It's a house of cards. And we've got to do something at the state level to try to have some kind of stability.
	And so you've got people at the state level, just like, you know, whatever happens with this border thing, at least it's changing people's focus and what they look at.
	It's like, yeah, let's let the states take care of this because the federal government's not going to do it.
	They didn't do it even under Trump.
	And so those things are positive.
	And when we talk about the CBDC thing, I remember...
	Maybe it was a year, maybe it was two years ago when we were talking about CBDC and it was still pretty much unknown.
	But you would ask people, do you support CBDC? I don't know what that is.
	But then if you went down and you told them step by step all the different aspects of it, oh, they were adamantly opposed to that.
	But now it's gotten around enough that Trump can just throw out the term CBDC And that's a bone to his people.
	So that's a good thing. They know that people now understand what CBDC is.
	And if you understand that term, you certainly do understand all of those different aspects of it that are going to be kicked into place.
	So that's a good thing as well.
	As the state's coming together on financial issues, that's already been happening under the radar.
	And now this is in front of everybody and everybody's saying, hmm, maybe we should have some decentralization.
	So I think that's ultimately a good thing.
	Perhaps. I remember speaking to Republic.
	I had a couple of different talks I did from Republican groups in North Texas.
	And I think I did one in August of 22.
	No one had heard of CBDC. They had no idea what I was talking about.
	I came back about six months later.
	I started seeing some heads nod.
	And since that time, I'm seeing them post about it.
	So we were out front.
	That's a testament to shows like yours and alternative media and people that are concerned with Issues that truly matter, you know, like, you know, not the pageantry, you know, all of this,
	the WWE, the wrestling that we're seeing in so much of our politics, getting, you know, the personal slights and the partisanship, that's a sideshow, because it's CBDC, it's consolidation, you know, and again, the What we're watching is the continuation of the plans that they've put in place that we've been talking about for years, that I've been on your show talking about for years.
	We've got the IMF drawing up the plans, and they have introduced the Unicoin, the Bank of International Settlements, talking about uniting all of these central bank digital currencies into one clearinghouse.
	They're already planning it.
	So it doesn't matter that such parties against it in the US. What matters is state level.
	Because on the federal level, it's a top-heavy bureaucracy that, again, the people have no say in.
	I don't believe that.
	I don't believe that we have a say in the federal level anymore.
	I think state level, absolutely, though.
	And that's the path, is decentralization.
	Just going back to the border thing, right?
	You got, what are they going to do about it?
	As Chip Hoy said, you know, we say we're going to impeach Majorca for this open border thing, and yet we continue to give him money.
	When you look at the financial side of it, they can complain about anything that happens financially, but, hey, the Federal Reserve doesn't even need their money.
	It's got its own, you know.
	It's controlling all of the money.
	So Congress doesn't even have any financial control over the Federal Reserve.
	And that's why it's important to do this at the state level.
	And as you point out, it was only a year ago that nobody really knew what was going on with this stuff.
	It was in the spring, I think, that Senator Nicely had me go speak to the Finance Committee at the state and talk to them about CBDC because they didn't really know about it.
	But now everybody knows about it, so that's good.
	And now that people see governors coming together to solve a problem, they might start thinking, well, could they come together to solve any other problems?
	And what other problems might we have?
	Maybe the financial stuff, which is the biggest problem.
	And the CBD is the express ticket to a mark-of-the-beast global system.
	It's got the ID and the financial controls.
	It is the mother load.
	As you said, it's the hill to die on.
	Yes. Well, then 2020 had a cascading effect on people's outlook on politics, especially in places like Texas, and I've seen that, where I can go in, and I'm talking in front of a Republican group, this is not a year or so ago, and I'm, you know, detailing some history of communism and the linkage to the Illuminati, and they're all just nodding their head like, yeah, that's really, I mean...
	That's how far politics have changed from the time that I ran for Congress.
	I was a little, I mean, obviously it's me, so I was way outside of what was accepted in the establishment, but especially, you know, I really turned that on too in the last 10 years so that people were just keeping up with me.
	Absolutely. There's a new world order.
	Absolutely. We've got to look out.
	They're trying to take all national sovereignty.
	Yes, there's a conspiracy. Yeah, absolutely.
	So I think people are pushing.
	And you see Greg Abbott, who is an abject failure and an establishment hack, a Karl Rove guy, neocon of the highest order.
	I remember talking to Tom Hawken.
	He was running for governor at the same time.
	Neocon, just bought and paid for.
	He told me how much money he had going into, this is 2014, going into the primaries.
	He goes, I think he's got like $68 million or something.
	It's some crazy number, just to even start out with.
	So, you know, in 2015, I saw a tweet from Greg Abbott that said, it was mocking the Dallas Cowboys.
	He said, oh, that defensive line is more open than the U.S. border.
	And I thought, you're governor!
	The Southern Board. You're the governor.
	You're laughing about this.
	He's busing people up to Martha's Vineyard for political stunts.
	You've mentioned many times about him giving hundreds of millions to this shell corporation out of Frisco, Texas to do contact tracing.
	First thing he did with his Trump funds.
	The Trump funds, right.
	You know, because that was the thing.
	All these governors, Brad Little, a Republican.
	Now, of course, Brad Little is part of this coalition to let's back up Texas and all this kind of stuff.
	But, you know, Brad Little, he dissolved the legislature.
	He said, go away. I don't know what you're getting in the way of my executive order.
	Because he had money that was given to him, discretionary funds for him to control completely.
	That were several times the entire budget of the state.
	And so, you know, that's where that stuff rolled out.
	But yeah, you're right about Greg Abbott.
	He's engaged in a lot of political stuff.
	And of course, this is ultimately a political thing as well, as I was pointing out earlier.
	What are Biden's options?
	Well, he can try to strong-arm this, and he can try to nationalize the National Guard, and then what's that going to look like?
	Everybody agrees that this is an invasion, and they're going to see him as a traitor if he does this.
	So it is a shrewd political move by Abbott and by the Republicans.
	I think the good thing that comes out of it, though, is regardless of whether they solve any problems, it takes people's focus away from solely looking at the federal government and solely looking at the presidential race.
	I absolutely agree.
	But I will say, you know, you're right about that.
	I mean, here we are in January, it's an election year, and lo and behold, here's the border is back, even though the border has been in crisis for years, years and years and years.
	I mean, ever since I was a kid, every Republican in Texas, I'm going to close, we're going to secure the border, you know, over and over again, we hear this every election.
	And now it's just...
	I mean, they're not even trying.
	I mean, they're not even trying to cover up the fact that they want this.
	I call it weapons of mass immigration.
	This is a way to destroy, not only to remake the demographics of the United States, but I think it's a psychological operation as well, David, to make you feel like you have no power, that the United States is a pitiful giant, that it can't control its borders.
	I mean, the border exposes everything.
	Whether it's COVID-1984 or whether it's the war on terror, you know, with George W. Bush and we've got to fight them over there, we don't have to fight them over here.
	Stupidity. And that's where we are.
	The border exposes the lie of all those things.
	And it shows right now that they could solve the border issue.
	When I ran for Congress, I said, why do we have troops on the border of South Korea and not South Texas?
	Mm-hmm. But when you put them there, when you put the troops there, they're just Sherpas.
	They just take the...
	Oh, I see you're traveling.
	Let me take you to this holding facility.
	You stamp your hand and they put you on a bus and there you go.
	And you're a Sherpa.
	You're not security. And so fundamentally, something has to change on the state level, whether it's calling up the National Guard and overriding federal...
	There's a humanitarian solution to this, and maybe you have to create sort of like a DMZ area where there's holding facilities and people that are truly, you know, political refugees.
	I mean, we want to do right by that.
	We are still the United States of America, but there has to be order to it.
	There has to be a deterrence.
	There has to be deterrence and there has to be order.
	Yeah, as some of these pictures, a lot of pictures, you know, of troops on their way to the border, you know, getting on planes.
	I've showed some of those. But then there was another one, and, you know, they were marching down a road, and they just had journalists with their cameras all over the place, you know, filming the troops, but also the journalists were filming each other filming the troops inadvertently.
	And as one person pointed out, you notice they don't have any guns, right?
	They're not armed for any of this stuff.
	They did have face shields on, but they didn't have any guns.
	So you don't really, again, how much of this is a pageant and how much of it is something that's really going to happen.
	And I don't want to really live in a...
	I don't want to live in an East Berlin type of environment either.
	My big concern is that this is a welfare magnet that's pulling people across.
	If they're not coming for money and free stuff, if they are coming in with whatever they come in with and they're going to work hard, I'm all in favor of that.
	That's the old-fashioned thing.
	Ellis Island model of immigration.
	I'm really in favor of that.
	I think that is a good thing.
	And I think that kind of, you know, the diversity and things like that that came out of it really were a strength.
	But this is not what this is.
	This is Cloud and Piven.
	This is a welfare magnet.
	And this is chaos. As you pointed out, it is demoralizing.
	And that's really the purpose of what Soros is doing with the district attorneys and everything else like that.
	Just to watch people come in and loot A store and get away with it.
	Well, we're watching people come in and loot the country and get away with it.
	And so it is a psychological war of demoralization that is at the bottom of this, I think.
	Well, I think you're right, and I got the East Berlin vibes, too, I guess probably a few years ago, and I finally just said, I don't want a wall, because I think at this point, they're just building it to keep me in.
	I think we can have border security.
	I think it can be, again, you can save the land there.
	You don't have to take eminent domain.
	You can use technology, but it has to have order.
	I'm with you. I think it's good to have people come in and build businesses and work.
	Our advantage here in this hemisphere is to the south of us are generally Catholic people.
	It still has a Western tradition built into that, so that is a positive.
	It's just too much.
	The amount of immigration that we have, David, as you know, is far surpassing anything in our history.
	We talk about the great waves of migration that happened, you know, when America was referred to as the melting pot, but it was mostly European-centered, and it was almost never more than a couple of hundred thousand.
	Yeah, exactly.
	And a year, and then there was periods of years and years of moratoriums, of pauses to give time.
	But we've just opened the floodgates, and especially since the fall of the Soviet Union, this has been an operation.
	You have a million new legal immigrants a year.
	Legal. That's a million.
	Eighty percent of all new immigrants vote Democrat.
	That's 800,000 new Democrats a year.
	And I think the Republicans like that, too, for whatever reason.
	They want more.
	Lindsey Graham wanted to double it.
	Immigration not too long ago, at least.
	He was afraid that we can't get people on the Social Security rolls.
	This is how they think. But the illegal part is unknown.
	You're probably 30, 40, 50 million.
	Who knows at this point?
	And even the dummy George W. Bush said, 1 in 12 is a criminal across the border.
	I'm like, well, that's an invasion.
	And why don't you do something about it?
	I mean, I wear... This green wrist brand for Dominic Durden, I met his mother, Sabina Durden, at the Federation for Americans for Immigration Reform in 2019.
	I had an interview with her.
	She's an angel mom. She lost her son to an illegal immigrant.
	It was such a powerful interview.
	I told her, I'll never take it off.
	So I have it. I've worn it since 2019.
	Every day I wear this wristband to remind me that our politicians that promise to protect us, like Greg Abbott, are absolute failures.
	They're derelict in their duty.
	and they get people killed because people that aren't supposed to be here because there is no rule of law and I don't want a lockdown country I don't want you know some kind of police state but we can do that we can actually have a secure border you just have to have the will to do it I think the will is there from the people But what this is exposing is the larger picture of how fake our politics are.
	Folks, we had fake money, fake politicians, fake news with real consequences.
	Oh, yeah. Yeah, real consequences.
	That's right. Yeah, you're right.
	It's not just a qualitative difference.
	It is a quantitative difference that we've never seen before in this country.
	And that's happening globally.
	It's coming through the U.N. And...
	People need to wake up. People need to do something about it.
	And again, Abbott is a showman, just like all these other people.
	They'll have their show trials in Congress, and I don't think they're going to do anything about it.
	But there is something that we can do in our personal life, isn't it?
	We can make some preparations for things and tell people a little bit about what's going on at Wise Wolf Gold.
	I saw an article on CBS Financial before we went on air, and it was asking, which one is better, one-ounce gold bars or one-gram gold bars?
	Which ones you buy? And I thought, well, it depends on how much money you have.
	There's 31 grams in a troy ounce of gold.
	Depends on if you're European or American, I guess, whether you get an ounce or a gram, right?
	Correct. Method or English.
	There's a demand for both, and I think a lot of the people that There's something about the gold industry, and especially the 1-800 numbers.
	I got a 1-800 number, but I'm not a national brand, per se.
	I'm not ubiquitous with a bullpen full of traders.
	I think what you're watching is people are starting to buy physical gold.
	These articles are popping up, and people just think they can't afford it.
	It's one of the reasons I started Wolfpack.
	You can go to davidknight.gold.
	There's a tab that says Join Wolfpack.
	I did the inverse of what every other gold...
	What a dealer and national brand has done.
	I went after people.
	I'm across the board. We do big transactions, too.
	But I wanted to talk to the people that were the $50 a month, the $125 a month.
	People, they need to save.
	They want to stack. But they're like, I call.
	The guy is disappointed I don't have $10,000.
	We're not. You can come see us, and we'll actually get you access to things like goldbacks.
	You know, the 24-karat gold notes, we can put those in even the lowest package, the lowest tier.
	But the article's talking about, Graham, you pay more.
	You pay a high premium whenever you fractionalize physical gold.
	So one of the things I did with Wolfpack was...
	Because of the amount of people that join, I buy sheets, like they're 100-gram sheets of 1-gram gold bars.
	They're all connected. I have my crew put on little white gloves, and they just take each piece and break it apart, and we individually package it.
	So we save you that premium and do a comparison invoice.
	So instead of paying $100, $100, $203 plus shipping, For a grand bar of gold, we get it down to $84, somewhere in there.
	So you get to save that premium.
	So there's ways for you to buy fractional gold without paying too much premium.
	And again, there's ways for you to buy gold.
	You don't have to buy a bar.
	And a bar of gold right now is over $2,100.
	Right. You don't have to do that.
	You can just buy pieces of it at a time.
	And that's been my mission at Wolfpack.
	Yes, we do IRA rollovers and 401k rollovers.
	We do big transactions. But I really enjoyed growing even the Wolfcup aspect.
	It's 35 a month for kids.
	I was able to put in some free wheat pennies.
	I bought some wheat pennies the other day.
	I had a big stack of them. I remember those.
	Yeah. Wheat pennies are fun.
	And they're copper.
	Any penny before 1982 is copper.
	Because the copper became more expensive than the penny.
	And that's why we just have base metals.
	History is full of these stories, David, of the empires when it starts to decline.
	Great empires, as you know, they rise on sound money.
	They rise on manufacturing and production.
	And they decline on fiat currency and free trade.
	Now, we don't mean free trade like not free markets, but these agreements where, you know, what we've done is we put American workers in some sort of Darwinian contest, survival of the fittest, with countries with no regulation and slave labor.
	And that's what we've done. And we incentivize corporations to do that.
	That's what I'm referring to with free trade.
	So we're in the decline phase, unfortunately.
	And again, we go back to earlier in our conversation.
	What does that mean for you?
	Well, the wealthiest people, you know, they continue to become wealthy and wealthy because they're buying up all the assets.
	And those of us who are chasing the green pieces of paper, trying to keep the lights on, it's harder to do that.
	So one of the ways that you can do that, just get out of Or at least to the best of your ability.
	There is a war on cash. I'm not telling you to have no cash.
	But you should deal in silver.
	Deal in gold. Have some physical gold and silver.
	Go to davidknight.gold. It's easy to do.
	My crew, we're learning more and more every day how to make the systems better and get orders out faster.
	So please go to davidknight.gold.
	And it supports David, too. And it's a great thing, you know, when you're talking about the Wolfpack, getting that quantity discount without having to buy a massive quantity because you're doing it as a group.
	And that's been one of the main selling points we were talking earlier about, the ETFs.
	Main selling point of the ETF with the paper gold and paper silver.
	Well, you can get a fraction of an ounce.
	You don't have to buy so much of it at a time.
	But the increment that you're offering is much less.
	You still get a The quantity discount and what I found out, I saw the ETF paper gold and paper silver.
	I realized when gold started moving around, it's like, wait a minute, these things aren't tracking.
	What's the matter with that? And then I started doing my investment.
	It's like, maybe they don't have any gold that's really there.
	Maybe they're using this to manipulate the market.
	So, you know, but again, that was one of the major reasons for them to have an ETF. It's probably one of the major selling points for them doing a Bitcoin ETF is to fractionalize it.
	But people can get in in small amounts, as you pointed out, and still have something that is physical, that's private.
	And that's going to be the key thing, I think, as we move forward.
	That, you know, financial privacy that they're working so hard to get rid of.
	We've got to preserve that.
	Thank you so much, Tony, for coming on.
	It's always great talking to you, and we have you on a Friday now instead of on a Thursday.
	We'll try for Thursdays.
	I didn't want to miss another week.
	Yeah, that's fine. Yeah, that's great.
	Thank you so much. I know you're very busy.
	Thank you for taking the time to come on and talk with us, and thank you for your support.
	I appreciate it. Folks, we're going to be right back.
	We're going to take a quick break.
	And I'm going to be talking about what is happening with the background of the truckers, as well as what is happening with their collapse and their control and dictation and mandates about cars, even as they're trying to put real speed governors on the cars in California.
	We'll be right back. Whether you're feeling like the blues.

	So we really do appreciate that.
	Thank you so much.
	I'm sorry I didn't get to that while he was still there.
	Maybe he'll hear it in recording.
	In terms of talking about the engine in my Miata, Michael DeSilvio says, put a Hayabusa engine in it.
	That's a motorcycle engine, so I guess we could get...
	Some people talked about, hey, we need to try to get some of these rotary engines in it, but I don't think that's going to happen anymore from Mazda.
	That would have been an interesting combination, but of course...
	They aren't clean enough burning, according to the EPA, besides the fact that they had some reliability issues with them as well, but they were very interesting engines.
	But yeah, put a motorcycle, a really big, powerful motorcycle engine in it.
	On Rumble, KWD68 says, As a bipartisan bill that's been the legislature to allow guns to be seized if there is a concern for your welfare or for others.
	Welcome to Soviet Kentucky.
	We're going to be talking about that if we've got enough time.
	If I can move quickly enough, there's some stuff about militias.
	And about gun control.
	I want to get to that as well.
	High Boost says the best motor is a Ford 302 for a Miata.
	Well, there's a lot of people that, you know, Miata was owned by Ford for a while.
	And so, yeah, there are some Ford engines out there.
	There was a company out of the UK that did a really nice job with a Ford-owned Jaguar at a point in time as well.
	And so there was some compatibility benefits with that.
	And somebody in the UK... They took a Jaguar six-cylinder engine.
	I forget. I don't know if it's the one that you're talking about.
	I'm not familiar with the Ford 302.
	But they took a...
	An engine for a Jaguar that was a six-cylinder and put it in the Miata, and they called it a Rocket Miata.
	And I thought that was a pretty good match because they could still have the same transmission, but it sounded great, too, and looked really nice because all the aftermarket parts that they put in on it were carbon fiber.
	It looked really nice in the engine bay, but I don't know.
	There was some talk about some people doing it in the U.S. One person did it up in the Pacific Northwest But they stopped doing it.
	And then there was somebody who did engine swaps down in San Antonio who is pretty well known.
	And he was saying he was going to do it, but I don't think it ever happened.
	But it was still a really expensive option, too.
	On Rockfin, Serge the Purge, good to see you there.
	And thank you for sending me the tape that you had of Tony and you talking.
	It says, hey, David, thank you for the repost on X for Jason and I's podcast.
	That's what I was just talking about. The fake patriot Donald Chump.
	Really means a lot. God bless you and your family.
	We're doing really good work, and thank you for doing that, Serge.
	I appreciate that. And Jason, you guys did a great broadcast there.
	Folks, take a look at that.
	I reposted it because I want people to see that.
	But, you know, you can go to their site and find it as well if you don't go to my Twitter.
	My Twitter is libertarian.
	It's pretty much dead, but, you know, it's still there.
	And we do have a few people that watch the broadcast there.
	Andromeda, thank you. Andromeda1, thank you for the tip.
	David, I know individuals have rights, states have powers, but I can't remember what the federal government has.
	They've got the Federal Reserve.
	That's what they've got. The Federal Reserve has got fiat.
	They can tell you this is what the money's worth and this is what you're worth.
	Nothing. You're... You're dispensable, you're exposable, and you're not essential.
	And so that's what the federal government has got.
	It's got a bunch of orders for us, and it's part of the new world order.
	That's good. That should be a t-shirt.
	Individuals have rights, states have powers, but what's the federal government have?
	Right now, it's got people's consent, and that's what we need to remove from it.
	But the Trudeau government, as it came out at the beginning of this week, and I haven't really talked about this much, They had a court case where the court said, you had no authority to put in an emergency order.
	But it's even bigger than that, because now as people have looked at, number one, the reaction of some of the people in the Canadian government, as well as some of the other aspects of this, what is the basis for a legitimate emergency order?
	And even if you have a legitimate emergency order, were these actions, these emergency actions, were they legitimate?
	And the answer is no. And then it gets even worse, because now they've found evidence of fakery, evidence of collusion with other intelligence agencies.
	What have I been saying about the Five Eyes?
	Well, now there is a very long article from the Daily Skeptic out of the UK talking about this Five Eyes conspiracy.
	That was enacted against the Canadian truckers who were doing the Freedom Convoy.
	Trudeau faked intelligence to frame the Freedom Convoy truckers and to frame them as violent extremists.
	And so the judge slapped him down earlier this week, but we see from a months-long investigation by an organization called Public.
	That's just their name, Public.
	They showed that...
	The Canadian government used disinformation to crack down on the Freedom Convoy protests.
	In other words, they're lying to people.
	They're faking this stuff and then saying, well, now on the basis of that, we can portray you as extremists, as terrorists, and all the rest of this stuff.
	This is why they are so focused at the World Economic Forum.
	The masters of Trudeau, you even heard Klaus Schwab talk about it.
	We put in Trudeau and we got our people in the cabinet.
	And of course, they have Chrystia Freeland there.
	Very, very closely tied to the World Economic Forum.
	She's, you know, there with Trudeau.
	Very high-ranking position.
	I think she's a deputy there.
	So the Freedom Convoy protest, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
	How did Dudley do so wrong?
	Dudley's supposed to do right, but not the Royal Canadian Mounted Police today.
	Their national police force, kind of like our FBI, promoted the lies to other 5I countries.
	Now, of course, these are five English-speaking countries.
	The U.S., Canada, U.K., Australia, New Zealand.
	And they conspired together to do a lot of very nasty stuff and to help each other.
	Escape the rules and regulations and laws of their own country.
	I talked about how they collaborate with each other to skirt around the prohibitions of them spying on their own citizens.
	It contributes to a pattern of intelligence agencies from the US, UK, Australia, New Zealand and Canada which have collaborated on surveillance since World War II being caught abusing their powers to investigate and to persecute political enemies of elected officials. That's what Public says.
	They go on to say...
	Of course, as we know, in 2013, Ed Snowden revealed that the U.S. government and other nations had violated legal protections against warrantless surveillance.
	Collaboration between five I nations also appears to have been used by the FBI in 2016 to create a pretext used for initiating the Russian collusion investigation against Trump again.
	These politicized agencies...
	Going after their political opponents.
	It doesn't make Trump good, the fact that the FBI went after him, but it just shows how corrupt the government is.
	And, you know, he was their political enemy, and they will use this against any political enemy.
	The story begins in 2022 when news media outlets claimed that the trucker's Freedom Convoy protest was a racist, fascist, or far-right movement.
	Trudeau called the convoy a small fringe minority with unacceptable views.
	Remember that? That's a quote.
	A fringe minority with unacceptable views.
	Yeah, we're not essential and our views are unacceptable.
	He accused conservative members of parliament of supporting hate.
	He said, Conservative Party members can stand with people who wave swastikas.
	They can stand with people who wave the Confederate flag.
	Well, I'm not going to stand with anybody who waves a swastika, but I'll stand with the people who wave the Confederate flag when it comes to it.
	In February 14, 2022, Trudeau invoked the Emergencies Act for the first time in Canada's history.
	Seizing bank accounts, seizing property, dismantling blockades.
	And so this is based...
	On a fabricated lie.
	And this lie was spread by the Five Eyes people and bolstered by them.
	The New Zealand police, when they contacted and public contacted the New Zealand police, well, they're not going to talk about either.
	Who said there's no honor among thieves?
	Five Eyes governments around the world use similar strategies to frame, to entrap, to demonize their political enemies, which are populist.
	Because the Five Eyes are globalists.
	They're not for us.
	You know, the CIA and the MI5s and 6s and all that, they're not for the American and the British people.
	They've got their own agenda.
	These are the people who are really driving the global government.
	These spies.
	And so, in addition to what has been seen in Canada, what has been exposed by this judge, there are now calls for King Charles' representative in Canada to resign.
	Because, you see, the monarchy's still got the hooks in it.
	You know, they are the royal Canadian mounted police.
	Well, they need to get this King Charles who's been riding them to dismount, don't they?
	Get off of the backs of the Canadians.
	And it was as the Justice Center for Constitutional Freedom took this on in this trial that came to a decision on Tuesday that the actions that were taken by Trudeau We're what was unreasonable and what was excessive, and that's what the judge found.
	And so the Center for Constitutional Freedoms, Justice Center for Constitutional Freedoms, said this is a great victory for democracy, for charter rights, and for freedoms, and for the rule of law.
	By the way, I've spoken to some people from the JCCF when you had the situations in Alberta where they were arresting the pastors and so forth.
	Good group. Good group that's there.
	We know the government has said that they plan to appeal.
	And with these reasons, however, and the findings of this judge, they now have a mountain to climb.
	And so King Charles' representatives in Canada...
	It turns out, initiated a lot of this stuff.
	Initiated and recommended the emergency powers be invoked and used against these Freedom Convoy protesters.
	And yet, after all of this, they haven't said anything.
	Even Chrystia Freeland, the World Economic Forum puppet, has responded to questions that people have, doubling down, of course.
	But King Charles and his minions are really kind of the hidden hand behind all this stuff, and they want to stay in the background.
	Canadians need to give these royals a boot, and they need to give the Royal Canadian Mounted Police a boot as well.
	As Canada's Deputy Prime Minister, that's her title, The World Economic Forum puppet Chrystia Freeland did respond, and she said she was convinced that the emergency thing was the necessary thing to do.
	But where did King Charles' people come in?
	Well, this article from Exposé News points out that the official that is there as a representative of King Charles is called Canada's Governor General.
	And that person right now is someone named Mary Simon.
	The Governor General represents King Charles III at the federal level in Canada, and is authorized to exercise most of the Crown's powers on behalf of the Sovereign.
	To summon and to dissolve Parliament.
	To set out the government's program by reading the speech from the throne.
	To give royal assent, which brings the Parliamentary bills into law.
	The Governor-General is also the Commander-in-Chief of Canada, exercising supreme command and control over the Canadian Armed Forces.
	Constitutionally, Commander-in-Chief powers are vested in the Canadian monarch, who is presently King Charles.
	By the Governor-General of Canada, presently Mary Simon executes most of the duties of the Sovereign, including his role as Commander-in-Chief.
	So the position of Governor General forms part of the King's Privy Council for Canada, a group of personal consultants to the monarch on the Canadian state and constitutional affairs.
	So this is part of the Privy Council.
	And you know what Canada needs to do to that, right?
	don't you know?
	They need to take this privy council and they need to flush it down the privy.
	They need a royal flush.
	The country will be much better off without these people.
	Put them in the privy and flush them all down.
	So the federal court judge pulled Canada back from the brink as this article from Brownstone Bruce Party says.
	The Emergency Act, as he pointed out, there's, they're going to appeal, of course, but there's four different issues.
	First of all, there's two things that need to be there for there to be a legitimate emergency.
	And the judge said neither of those were met.
	And then there's two things that they did which were not legitimate even if it had been a legitimate emergency.
	You see how the mountain that they've got to climb?
	The government issued two regulations.
	one prohibited public assemblies that could be expected to lead a breach of the peace, they said.
	The other one outlawed donations and authorized banks to freeze donors' bank accounts.
	Governments cannot use the Emergencies Act unless its prerequisites are met.
	A public order emergency must be a national emergency and a threat to the security of Canada.
	And both of these things are defined in the Act.
	So he's got two conditions that he needs to meet in order to declare an emergency.
	But once you declare an emergency, it's not a legitimate thing to go seizing people's bank accounts, you see.
	So the judge found that there was no national emergency, that there was no threat to the security of Canada.
	You know, the same thing is true with President Trump's emergency order.
	It's executive order. And the actions that President Trump took were also unconstitutional.
	As I said many times, you don't suspend the Constitution because there's an emergency.
	And so, as I said all along, it was medical martial law.
	But again, these people don't abide by the law.
	And that's true of Trudeau.
	And it's just as true of Trump.
	And the question is, Who is the king that Trump is taking orders from?
	I think that it's not even so much King Charles as it is Davos and the UN that Trudeau is slavishly following.
	And as we look at the fake news that was pushed out, we've now just had a top Harvard cancer researcher.
	Accused of faking data and committing scientific fraud.
	Oh, it can't be not Harvard.
	I mean, she didn't even plagiarize it.
	She just faked it.
	I mean, she's worse than their president that they just kicked out.
	Committing scientific fraud.
	Well, we've known all along.
	That this MacGuffin, this climate MacGuffin, was always about scientific fraud.
	No, I'm not going to show you my data.
	No, we're not going to have that debate.
	No, you can't. If you question me, you are a denier.
	Why? Well, because I've got credentials from the best of these universities, from Harvard, from the University of East Anglia, and all the rest of this stuff.
	I'm from the Imperial College of London, and look at this simulation I did about the pandemic.
	Don't question me.
	And so this is the basis of all this stuff.
	And it's amazing to me to see all these people coming back about measles.
	And even people who are kind of on our side.
	Well, vaccine misinformation isn't to blame for the rising measles cases.
	Rising measles cases are not a problem.
	I grew up in a world where everybody got measles.
	And just like we look at these Canadian truckers, they were not a problem.
	CO2 is not a problem.
	The Canadian truckers are not a problem.
	Measles are not a problem.
	As a matter of fact, what you get from measles as a child is you get lifetime immunity.
	That's why everybody made sure their kids got measles so they didn't catch it as an adult when it would be far more dangerous for them.
	When we come back, we're going to take a look at how the market...
	It's nullifying Biden's executive orders, his bribery, and all the rest of the stuff, and his designs for how everybody needs to drive an electric car or no car at all.
	No, people are not buying it.
	We'll be right back. If you like the Eagles, the cars, and Huey Lewis and the News, You'll love the Classic Hits channel at APS Radio.
	Download our app or listen now at APS radio.com Using free speech to free minds Oh, okay.
	It's the David Knight Show.
	Well, what do you call it when they put something on an engine to make it not be able to go any faster than a certain set speed?
	Well, you call that a governor, right?
	And what do we call the guy in California?
	What was his name? A governor grabbing nuisance, right?
	And so it's a question as to what they're going to call this new device that's been proposed.
	They've got a bill that has proposed to electronically restrict cars from going over the speed limit.
	So will they call it a governor?
	Or will they call it a nuisance?
	Or maybe just a Newsom?
	The person who's introduced this, by the way, Scott Wiener, this raging pervert in California.
	So this is going to be a speed governor device to make it physically impossible for vehicles to go 10 miles per hour over the posted speed limits.
	You know, and this is one thing that kind of surprised me when I saw this.
	And, of course, this has been introduced in the past.
	And Grabin Nuisance vetoed it in 2019, and I kind of figured that the way they would approach all this, because...
	They know your location.
	They know the location of where you are.
	And I've got an app on my phone that's tied into the radar detector.
	And this guy, he does it for free.
	He makes the app available for free.
	He's out of North Carolina.
	And it's a great app.
	And it works with Valentine One radar detectors.
	And it knows where you are, and it knows what the speed limits are, of course.
	And so when the speed limits get ready to change, it'll notify me that the speed limits are changing.
	I'll get a verbal warning about that for speed traps and things like that.
	And so all of this is known, and you know this as well.
	Even if you use just like Google Maps and you're driving, it'll tell you what the speed limit is, and it'll show if you're over Google and Waze and all those different types of things.
	And so they know what the speed limit is, and they know where you are, and they could just write you a ticket.
	All right? And I always figured that'd be the way they'd do it.
	You know, that you just get, you know, in your car, you just get a bing.
	And it's like, okay, you know, you've got one.
	And if you don't slow down within a certain amount of time, we're going to write you another one.
	You know, that type of deal. I figured that'd be what they would do.
	You know, and they could make even more money and they wouldn't have to have cops.
	They could just automate this whole thing.
	You know, kind of a Stas AI monitor right there in the car with you.
	Or your Stasi stuff. So I kind of figured that was going to be the way that they would go.
	If they limit you, I guess they could still write a ticket if you were 10 miles per hour of the speed limit so they could have it both ways.
	But he says, I think everybody's on board with this because we all know that speed kills.
	Really? I think maybe inattention is the biggest killer.
	It really is. It's not necessarily the speed.
	It's the inattention. Another part of the measure, he said, would require large trucks to install side guards to prevent pedestrians, cyclists, or other vehicles from getting sucked underneath the truck during a crash.
	What is he talking about?
	Have you ever seen anything like that?
	I mean, we watch... We watch car crash videos all the time for fun.
	I don't have time to watch movies anymore, but I'll like pop something in and for five minutes I'll watch car crash videos or something and go to bed.
	It gives Karen nightmares, so we watch cat videos now for the most part.
	But anyway, I have never seen anything like that.
	You do see certain patterns that happen.
	Like you're going to make a left-hand turn, but there's somebody that's trying to make a left-hand turn that is ongoing traffic, and so you can't see what's in the next lane over.
	Somebody thinks that it's clear, they turn, and then they get hit.
	But there's certain things like that that you see over and over again.
	And it's good to watch that because you see, well, this is a likely scenario where I could get pinned, you know, with this thing.
	But seeing people get sucked under a truck?
	The only place I've seen that was on Christmas Vacation.
	Maybe that's what Scott Wiener was watching, you know, when Chevy Chase gets sucked underneath when he's driving underneath the truck.
	I don't know what in the world he's talking about here.
	He says, I don't want people driving more than 10 miles per hour in my neighborhood.
	Well, guess what? Probably in his neighborhood, it'd be hard enough to drive through there at all with all the homeless people camped out in the street.
	Because that's what they have given the people in San Francisco.
	And then he says, it comes just like with gun control, right?
	They come in with a little tragic anecdote.
	And his tragic antidote, he says, you know, there's a woman whose mother was permanently injured while crossing the street here in San Francisco.
	And she says that she supports this change.
	She wants, you know, a governor and the car with you.
	He said, it's hard to stand here where she suffered, where everything changed in an instant, and all she was doing was crossing the street.
	Those evil cars.
	We've got to just get rid of them, don't we?
	Same garbage tactic, except it's laughable with this, isn't it?
	I mean, we know, everybody knows a story of a tragic accident where somebody has died.
	But we know that, you know, things like that happen in life.
	And most people's reaction is not to, well, we need to ban cars.
	That's the game that they play with guns, because most people don't own guns, but most people at this point in time drive cars.
	And so it doesn't work so well.
	But that doesn't mean that they won't try it.
	It doesn't mean that he won't try it.
	And so... In addition, he wants to get the government to make upgrades to crosswalks, bike lanes, curb extensions.
	This is all the Vision Zero stuff.
	They call it road calming, road diets, and all the rest of this stuff because the Vision Zero isn't that they say it's to have zero people killed with cars, but it's really to have zero cars because that's the only way that you're going to have zero people killed with cars.
	Most people understand that it's a reasonable risk, that we should be able to determine what risks we want to take, just like during the pandemic.
	I don't want to wear your mask.
	First of all, I know it doesn't work, but even if it did work, I will decide what risks I take.
	And so this would be the very first one of these types of things.
	I don't know with this compact that they've got with California.
	When California says, we're going to ban all internal combustion engines at such and such a date.
	And you had a lot of states that already signed on to that.
	Virginia was one of them. But then Glenn Youngkin said, no, we're not going to be a part of that.
	But many others have bought into that compact and said, we're going to follow whatever California does.
	So if this becomes law, is it going to...
	Become law in a lot of these other states?
	I don't know. He went on to say, Wiener did, he said there's no reason for anybody to be going over 100 miles an hour on a public road.
	Well, I don't know. I can think of lots of reasons I'd want to go over 100 miles an hour.
	Has he ever heard of the Autobahn?
	You ever heard of that, Wiener?
	By the way, I don't need to give you a reason for anything that I do.
	And when it comes to risk, maybe this guy has never really had the thrill of driving a car.
	I don't know. More like weenie.
	Yeah, well, I mean, if you know anything about Wiener, that's appropriate.
	But, you know, some of us, it just strikes, this romance of driving in the road.
	Here's an example of Mr.
	Toad here. As he's there with his horse and buggy, and he hears this thing coming down the road.
	Yeah, look at that. Oh, there's Mr.
	Mr. Toad, what did I just see? A motorcar! Gad, what have I been missing?
	Have I been missing?
	Oh, oh, Ratty!
	He hasn't.
	It is. And he has.
	A new mania.
	Motor mania. Yeah, well, you know, Wiener's got his own manias.
	And quite frankly, the things that Wiener is into...
	Are maybe a lot more dangerous to him than a motor car would be.
	Maybe he ought to think about that.
	Maybe he ought to experience the thrill of driving instead of some of the other entertainments that he engages in, because that can result in very deadly diseases, not to mention eternal death.
	But he's going to lecture us about our choices, and he doesn't want to sue us.
	As a matter of fact, he says, in 2022 alone, 4,407 Californians died in car crashes.
	And so, but he'd already said earlier, he said that there were 3,000 tickets that were handed out for people who were going over 100 miles an hour.
	Wait a minute, those people didn't die.
	They got tickets instead.
	So is it, you know, when you look at safety, is it the person who's driving at a fast rate, faster than Wiener wants you to drive?
	Or is it maybe the grandma who doesn't know what's going on, not paying attention, or maybe impaired, and slowly pulls out in front of a semi-truck?
	What is more dangerous?
	See, the problem is that he doesn't really know.
	On Rumble, High Boost says, David, what do you think about seatbelt laws?
	I never wear mine unless I'm in the race machines.
	Well, you know, I was very adamantly opposed to them.
	And I've told a story before.
	I was wearing a seatbelt before they made it the law in Florida, where I grew up in Tampa.
	And when they made it the law, I refused to wear seatbelts for two years.
	And Karen knew me at the time.
	But the thing is, it's like, who are you to tell me what to wear?
	I make those decisions myself.
	And so... I remove the airbag from my car as well.
	So, you know, just different things like that.
	I'm really not into their safety stuff or their emission stuff either.
	The demise of the electric vehicle.
	And this is one of the reasons why I wanted to talk about this.
	A whodunit with a shocking twist.
	And there's this article from John Clark at LibertyNation.com.
	John Clark. And he refers back to, you remember that documentary that was back in, what was it, 2006?
	The documentary, Who Killed the Electric Car?
	I had a friend who showed that to me.
	And he said, this is what we need to be.
	And Detroit is keeping this from us, and the oil companies are keeping this from us.
	It's like, well, okay, well, that's kind of cool.
	I've had no objections to an electric car.
	Maybe that is true.
	But now that we've got the electric car, I think the people who killed it, I think I know now, it's Biden, it's Boudier, Greta Thunberg and the rest of these people, I think they're the ones who killed the electric car.
	They pushed it too far too fast.
	Look, it could be a technology that could be very useful.
	But they have pushed it and jumped the shark with it, quite frankly.
	They tried to make it, and here's the thing that I think is really kind of interesting and ironic, that here, the electric car that was supposed to be the solution to global warming, what was it?
	Not who was it, but what was it that killed the electric car?
	Well, of course, it was cold weather.
	Cold weather killed the solution to global warming, because it's not global warming, number one.
	And your solution doesn't work either.
	These batteries died hard, didn't they, when the freeze came?
	And so, you know, electric vehicle cells were already getting pretty bad before the Arctic blast, and that basically just kicked them over the edge.
	It's like an elderly person with a lot of comorbidities, and they catch a cold.
	Well, the electric vehicle industry caught a cold and died.
	Yeah. My son says, they also made it way too dorky.
	No way am I going to be seen in something that is endorsed by Greta Thunberg or Elon Musk.
	Well, I know. Some electric cars are really pretty cool.
	The Previa was kind of dorky.
	But actually, the body styling on it has gotten much better lately.
	So, I don't know. Even Eric Peters gave it compliments, I think, to the body style of the latest Previa.
	But anyway, isn't it interesting?
	That when the cold weather came, the batteries died hard with a vengeance.
	So who killed the electric car?
	I think God killed it with temperatures.
	And, you know, the other irony, I think, is that they always refer to the engines with the acronym ICE. Internal Combustion Engines.
	ICE. And so they...
	They tried to kill ICE with their global warming myths, except the real ICE killed their electric vehicles.
	So who killed the electric car explored the possibility that government and industry forces were conspiring to take it out.
	And yet the thing that took it out were the politicians who jumped the shark by trying to foist something on people.
	That wasn't really ready.
	You know, again, when you look at governments designing cars like the Soviet Union, and they steal the design for the Lada from Fiat, and then they do a poor implementation of it, this is what we have here.
	You know, it's a lot of bribery, coercion, mandates, bans, and all the rest of this stuff.
	And we always knew what the endgame on this was.
	Push everything and everyone, every appliance, your heating, your air conditioning, your cars, everything, push it onto the grid, and they're shutting the grid down.
	And so this isn't even stupid.
	It's just evil.
	The batteries don't have a good recycling story to them, just like the windmill turbine blades.
	We have, if we go down this route, it's going to make everybody dependent on China because they've got the control of all the raw materials that need to be used for all of this.
	So, is it a fading fad?
	Well, it looks like stock prices are going down as they're doing slashing the prices for electric vehicles at Tesla, GM, Ford.
	So, I'm seeing article after article saying this is a fad that is going down, you know, kind of like hula hoops.
	Remember that on the Hudsucker Proxy?
	Here's the kids running out of school.
	And prior to this, these people come up with a hula hoop, but they couldn't sell it anywhere.
	And you had the merchant who kept taking the price down and down and down.
	And here come this bunch of kids all running in mass down the sidewalk.
	And this kid picked one of these hula hoops up, and they stop in their tracks to see what's going on.
	And this kid, not only can he hula hoop, but he can.
	They're just in awe. Mouths are wide open and dropped.
	What is this thing?
	And now look at this.
	He's doing it with one leg and hopping around.
	And so now the next thing that happens, they think about this a little bit.
	And they all go running en masse to the store.
	He's going around his neck.
	And so, I really like this movie with the Coen brothers.
	And here they run to the store, and here's a guy who couldn't sell hula hoops, and he had to mark the price down.
	And now look at this. He's taking off all those stickers, and the price is going up, up, up, up, up.
	Well, maybe that'll happen with EVs, and maybe it won't.
	We're gonna take a quick break and we will be right back

	Well, several gun groups, U.S. Concealed Carry Association and the National Rifle Association, are warning people that there's legislation coming out to try to do a backdoor regulation of people with their carry permits.
	And, of course, we now have a lot of states, Tennessee is one of them, Texas is another one, where we have constitutional carry, where the permit, my permit to carry, is the Constitution.
	Because rights are not by permit.
	Rights are endowed by God.
	But this campaign that is now coming, and they've tried so many different ways.
	You know, we want to ban this gun, or this type of gun, and another one, and another one, and we want to ban ammunition, and we want to be able to track it all, and we want to sue the gun manufacturers, and We want to make it impossible for you if you've got a gun to actually keep it and carry it, which is, again, ignoring a previous Supreme Court case.
	But they're after it in every way possible, and not only just the concealed carry, but if you are going to openly do it, they want to shut down the militia.
	As I said before, if you read the Constitution, the government should be equipping and training the yeomanry, the people, men between the ages of 16 and 60, should be trained in the use of weapons and given the weapons by the military.
	Instead, the government wants to keep all these weapons to themselves.
	And so BearingArms.com talked about an anti-militia bill.
	And they said, well, it looks like it's maybe worse than we thought, because this analysis that was done by the gun writer, that's his website, his name is Lee Williams, he said, okay, so how is this likely to work out?
	The reason they're doing this militia law, it's just another aspect of gun control.
	They want to try to use January 6th, the Oath Keepers and the Proud Boys and stuff like that, to say, well, we've got to crack down on militias.
	But he said, think about this.
	We've got the right to train with our firearms.
	We can draw from a holster.
	We can shoot while we're moving. We can practice many different things and send as much lead downrange as our bank accounts will allow.
	And, of course, that's getting more and more difficult.
	And it's all perfectly legal, at least for now.
	However, with this new bill making its way through Congress, known as Preventing Private Paramilitary Activity Act of 2024, it would make all of this illegal, or at least suspicious enough, to draw scrutiny from the feds.
	He said, to be clear, if Joe Biden ever signs this bill the second he puts down his crayon, the feds will flock to local gun ranges and numbers that will make it nearly impossible for actual members to even find a place just to park.
	They'll be all over the place, like January the 6th.
	This bill would give them license to investigate anyone who trains with a gun in order to determine whether or not they are a militia member.
	Well, I don't know, you look to me like you're trying to do some maneuvers there or something.
	The FBI recently investigated a law abiding Americans whose sole transgression was shopping at a Cabela's or a Dick's sporting goods.
	Evidently, he says, the FBI, the premier law enforcement agency of the country, wasn't even aware that Dick's stopped selling guns and ammunition eons ago.
	As a matter of fact, they not only stopped selling it, but the CEO became so focused and obsessed with gun control that he hired lobbyists in Washington to try to shut them down.
	It's funny, you know, when you look at the FBI, they're out there, okay, let's look for any gun purchases at Dick's that hasn't sold them for years.
	It's very much like Brazil.
	I keep coming back to Terry Gilliam's Brazil, where the tyrants...
	Are as stupid as they are evil and dangerous.
	And that's what we have here.
	And of course, the other transgression is to have a Bank of America credit card, because they'll snitch on you to the FBI. Oh, so-and-so is in such and such an area.
	And you know, in the past, this guy bought a gun as well.
	And so, Bearing Arms said, well, I'd like to say that he's being alarmist on this matter, but actually he's not.
	And we know this is exactly what the FBI will do, given half of a chance to do so.
	As we're coming up to this divisive election, you've got everybody talking about violence on either side if they don't get what they want.
	And that's one of the reasons why we have to change our focus on this.
	There's a long article from Zero Hedge.
	They went to the SHOT Show, and it is, you know, riot gear for riot police all over the place.
	Everybody's expecting riots.
	It could be coming from the left.
	It could be coming from the right.
	And, you know, part of this, again, is to decentralize power.
	But the other part of this is to understand where the true power is.
	The true power in our lives to fix our lives, as well as the power that rules the universe, is a power that we need to make connection with.
	That's what we need to focus on.
	Not to be obsessed with politics.
	Yes, you should have discernment so that you're not taken advantage of.
	And you need to have discernment so you can stop other people from being taken advantage of.
	We need to stand in the gap for the innocent and the gullible.
	But we also need to understand that the real power, right, is not in our carry permits or our AR-15s or his F-16s.
	The real power are the mighty weapons that we have with our relationship with God.
	Thank you for listening. Have a good weekend.
	Let me tell you, the David Knight Show, you can listen to with your ears.
	You can even watch it by using your eyes.
	In fact, if you can hear me, that means you're listening to the David Knight Show right now.
	Yeah, good job.
	Ha ha ha! And you want to know something else?
