you
using free speech to free minds You're listening to The David Night Show.
As the clock strikes 13, it's Wednesday, the 22nd of May.
Year of our Lord 2024.
Yeah, things are moving along pretty fast, and they're moving along pretty fast for Klaus Schwab as well.
It's now 86, the Bond villain is going to step down.
He'll be sadly missed as a cartoon character, because the agenda that he began will live on.
This is not the work of one man.
And so we're going to take a look at...
The man, his legacy, but we have a deep bench of satanic villains to choose from.
We will move on from Klaus Schwab and look at the others that are out there.
We'll take a quick look at lawfare that is happening.
Oliver Stone even mentioned it.
He's not a Trump fan, but he says, hey, what is happening to Trump is real lawfare.
But it's not just about Trump.
Take a look at what the Biden administration is doing.
Not only criminal charges and years and years for very elderly people, but also civil forfeiture, not civil forfeiture, civil lawsuits against a lot of pro-life organizations.
And we'll take a look at some new AI technology they think you're going to be stupid enough to buy at Microsoft.
We'll be right back. Yeah, the report is that Klaus Schwab is going to step down as the World Economic Forum Executive Chairman.
The guy who was the greatest gift to comedy, and I say that without a T, GIF. He was a cartoon character, straight out of the Bond villain casting.
And, evidently, he thinks that he isn't going to make the window of the singularity where these people like Yuval Harari and Ray Kurzweil believe that they're going to transfer their essence into a robot and live forever.
Evidently, he doesn't think that's the case because he is beginning to step down.
This proverb says, don't envy the rich or crave their company.
That's one translation.
Of course, the King James Version says, don't desire to be with them.
You know, we could translate, you know, don't envy the rich or crave their corporation.
No, it's not that kind of company.
It says, desiring to be with them.
And, of course, we have seen how many world leaders desire to be with Klaus Schwab, haven't we?
Well, let's see. There was Brian Kemp out of Georgia.
We don't trust him, do we?
Glenn Youngkin out of Virginia.
Oh, we don't trust him. He's there with Klaus Schwab.
We got young World Economic Forum leaders.
Oh, we don't trust them, right?
Eyepatch McCain, Tulsi Gabbard.
But, you know, Donald Trump was there, and it was just fine.
It was just fine. And it meant absolutely nothing that he was there just before he rolled out this globalist plan.
He was on the same page as everybody else.
Where do you get the instructions for doing that?
You know, is it his people on the inside?
Or what was the deal with that?
It was fine for Trump. All the rest of these people, boy, it's a sign of being a traitor to desire to be in the company of Klaus Schwab.
Well, they're all sitting on the board, aren't they?
They're all sitting on the board of that company.
Schwab has not officially named a successor.
Maybe he's holding out, you know, just at the last minute.
Elon Musk is going to get this thing figured out.
Transhumanism singularity is going to pop in and save it.
Maybe he can freeze his brain or something, you know.
Brain freeze. It's going to eat a lot of ice cream.
Anyway, the Politico website reported that Politico, according to 29 WEF insiders, that Schwab is treating the organization like a family heirloom.
We don't have any political leaders that would do anything like that, do we?
Nepotism. Indicating that Schwab may have sought to appoint one of his two children, Nicole and Olivier, both of whom already serve in high-ranking positions.
He might appoint them as the next executive.
Mum's the word right now.
But you know, when we look at this, when we look at his legacy and the fact that he's...
He's not going to go to jail.
None of these people who locked us down or did any of this stuff or came up with this global conspiracy to starve and enslave us, none of them are going to answer in this lifetime because they're all hanging together.
They had murder on the Warp Speed Express.
Just like the murder on the Orient Express, everybody did it.
Everybody had a hand in it.
Nobody's going to come after any of these other people because they're all complicit.
But why do the wicked prosper, right?
We always ask that. Well, the Bible says, don't be amazed when a man grows rich.
Because when he dies, he will take nothing away with him, of course, and he will stand before God.
Schwab started the World Economic Forum in 1971 with only $6,000 in startup funds.
Now it is a $390 million per year business.
Isn't that interesting?
Taylor Swift makes more money.
Does less damage, actually.
Maybe. Hers is more subtle, the damage that she does with subsequent generations.
And so you've got the world leaders who go to Davos every year on their private jets, as we've always talked about.
And yet, they're all in the same boat, aren't they?
As Breitbart points out, because they won't tell you the truth, they won't tell you the truth, even today, four years later, Breitbart is still calling it the China virus.
Can you believe that? The China virus didn't lock you down.
Trump did. The China virus didn't inject you a poison.
Trump did, and Biden did, okay?
The China virus didn't mask you up.
It was a government at every level that was doing it, except in some local jurisdictions.
During the Chinese coronavirus, says Breitbart, because I won't tell you the truth, the Schwab controversially declared that it represented an opportunity to enact his notion of a great reset.
That's what it was all about. And this is not just Klaus Schwab.
This is a global agenda that is much bigger than Klaus Schwab.
It's just that he was the guy that was kind of the executive branch.
And, you know, the Congress really is kind of the UN. They're the ones who don't have the power to allocate money.
That's where it gets a little bit different.
It's Klaus is bringing in these super rich tech billionaires and others who are going to fund these schemes.
The schemes are hatched in the UN. Klaus didn't create the UN 2030 agenda.
He just popularized it and started raising money for it and started bringing in the private businessmen to allocate who's going to give what.
They do that at Bilderberg as well.
And all that stuff will continue.
There's no person at Bilderberg.
He's the one who's running it.
I mean, he had annual attendees like Henry Kissinger.
Now you've got the people like David Petraeus and Alex Karp who are there every year.
But Klaus Schwab is just another one of these globalist organizations that seek to rule the world.
A bunch of Nazis, literal Nazis in his case.
Schwab controversially declared that this was an opportunity to enact the Great Reset.
And of course, he didn't do it, did he?
It was done by people like Trump and Trudeau and Macron and Bojo.
They were the ones who did it, marching.
To the UN agenda, the Bilderberg agenda, the World Economic Forum agenda.
Key to his notion of a great reset is the implementation of the socialist adjacent stakeholder capitalism.
Well, it is not capitalism.
It is crony capitalism.
It's not even really socialism.
It's really more fascism.
It's a merger of government and economic companies, right?
So it's crony capitalism.
It's economic fascism.
It's a lot of things, but it's not really socialist.
But he's the one who coined that term.
Isn't that interesting, I think?
They produced a video saying, you'll own nothing and be happy, of course.
We all know that. Everybody got so upset about it, they started taking it down everywhere.
And he also likes to talk about the fourth industrial revolution.
It's hard to tell if he's saying it's fourth as in order or if it's forced.
Of course, it doesn't really matter with these Nazis, does it?
The first industrial revolution.
It is the fourth turning of the United States that we are in the midst of right now.
That's what makes it so dangerous.
And it's not going to be an industrial revolution.
It's going to replace the industrial revolution with an information revolution, a censorship revolution, a manipulation of all of that stuff.
The world economic chairman Has pointed to AI as central to its vision, saying, yeah, because it gives their eyes into everything that you're doing.
We'll talk about what Microsoft has proposed.
We'll talk about Big Brother in a box.
They want to sell you a $1,000 laptop that's constantly taking screenshots and analyzing them about everything that you're doing.
Who in their right mind would ever accept that, let alone pay for that?
It's beyond me, but there will be a lot of zombies, as the NSA said.
It said about the smartphone.
Who would have thought in 1984, and they show the Super Bowl commercial with Mac, that this would be Big Brother, and they show Steve Jobs holding up the iPhone, and they show people lined up at the store, and that the zombies would line up to pay for it.
Well, you know, the...
Microsoft laptops are really pretty old technology, so maybe people won't line up to pay for it.
And it is, you know, this is supposed to be the cherry on top that revives the laptop?
I don't think so. We'll see.
The world economic, to me, is kind of like the iPhone thing, the Vision Pro.
From the very beginning of this, it's like, A, it's way too expensive.
B, you look like Percy Dovetonsil's Ernie Kovacs character from the 1950s when you put that thing on.
It projects your eyes out there about three inches away from your face.
And, I don't know.
Anyway, this may be the same sort of thing for Microsoft.
It'd be fun to watch these guys crash and burn.
He said last year, those who control AI will have the ability to become the masters of the world, right?
The World Economic Forum founder has pointed to Communist China as a likely role model, that's his term, role model, for many countries in the systemic transformation of the world, he said, right?
Of course, they all love it.
That's why, going back to Henry Kissinger, Mr.
Bilderberg, That's why they have always given China the preeminence.
You know, China responded. They said, well, we've got too many people because the initial thing about this is the depopulation, right?
So we're going to make an example of China.
China will shut down their population.
Oh, they did. Now can they pull it back?
You know, it's like a pilot putting the plane into a dive bomb.
And can you pull this thing out?
So, yeah, just another validation yesterday when I saw this plane.
Another plane dropped 6,000 feet, 30 people injured.
One guy died. He had a heart attack, 73 years old.
I'm surprised more people didn't have a heart attack, especially since we got so many people vaccinated.
You know, a plane's going straight down.
Anyway, another validation of my decision not to fly anywhere.
I had Bradley Dean, who has a radio program, and I've had him on here.
I've done some guest hosting for him because he does a lot of external events and stuff.
He called me the other day and he said, do you do any events?
And I said, nope, don't travel.
No. So there you go.
That's a drop 6,000 feet trying to take off and the engine is on fire.
I mean, these are just things that have happened in the last couple of days I haven't really talked about.
World Economic Forum has pointed to communist China as a likely role model and they have given everything to China.
China can build all of the factories that they wish without anybody bothering them about emissions or even about trying to clean it up.
You know, just build a bunch of them because we're going to transfer all of the manufacturing to China and to India.
And away from the United States and Europe and everything, which is what is happening.
There's no question about that.
And, of course, China has responded with these draconian policies of one-child policy, pulled back from that.
But, of course, they were the ones who set up the social credit system, which is central to all this, the traffic light system, red, yellow, and green, about whether or not you're a good citizen.
You do what they tell you when they tell you.
You ask them, how high do you want me to jump?
How many boosters do you want me to take?
The Chinese model is certainly a very attractive model for quite a number of countries.
And of course, we've seen this over and over again.
We had Trudeau saying, you know, what country do you like the best?
And don't say Canada. We know you're going to say Canada.
But what country other than Canada?
And Trudeau says, well, I like China because they can tell people to do whatever they want for climate change.
And we had George W. Bush say the same thing as well.
Yeah, I wish I was a dictator like China.
I could just tell people what to do.
They all crave that power.
Well, Babylon Bee, I think, had one of the more interesting takes on Klaus Schwab.
They have a picture of him in his space suit thing.
You know, I don't.
Maybe some of you know.
If you know, put it in the chat and I'll have Travis scan for it.
But I don't know what he was doing when he dressed up like a space alien or a spaceman or something with that suit that he had, right?
Was this some kind of a cosplay event that Davos said I missed out on?
Was this like a Jeffrey Epstein costume party or something?
What was the deal? Why was he wearing that costume that you see him pictured in all the time?
I think they might even have it on the Breitbart article.
They might have put up that picture of him.
You know, the bald guy, the Bond villain with the weirdo costume.
But Babylon Bee says that he's decided to step down so he can spend more time.
Yeah, there it is right there. Yeah, Babylon Bee had it.
He's decided to step down so he can spend more time with...
Lizard family on planet Zarkon 7.
There you go. Well, as a special tribute to Klaus Schwab, we won...
We will give you some of his greatest hits.
We'll be right back. New world order in music.
One, two, three, four, five.
All the unvaccinated are still alive.
A little bit of Pfizer in my arm.
A little bit of BioNTech does no harm.
A little Johnson Johnson does the trick.
A little Esteseneca so you don't get sick.
It's booster number five.
Just a small town boy drinking genetically mortified soy.
This ensures he doesn't procreate.
Please stop breathing.
Stop the breathing.
We are almost nine billion people.
Please stop bleeding right now Here's a little song I wrote You might want to hear it in your pod.
You know nothing. And be happy.
Ain't got no cash.
Ain't got no car.
But 24 booster shots in your arm.
Oh, nothing. You can't even buy s*** in the store because of your low social credit score.
Own nothing.
Be happy. You'll owe nothing.
And be happy.
Be happy and eat the bugs.
I'm a secular progressive activist.
Last year, I recovered the remains of these five babies from an all-term abortion center in Washington, D.C. These are the faces of a genocide supported by Joe Biden and my own Democratic Party.
We can provide for the working class and resist this extremism.
I am challenging you to never vote for a pro-choice Democrat again.
I'm Teresa Bakovanak, pro-life Democrat, running for President of the United States, and I approve this message.
Excellencies, ladies and gentlemen, dear Klaus, your annual global risk report makes for a stunning and sobering read.
For the global business community, the top concern for the next two years is not conflict or climate, it is disinformation and misinformation.
followed closely by polarization within our society.
In a world of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
You are listening to The David Knight Show.
All right, and those great clips there from Snickers, you can find them on YouTube, and they did a lot of great work there.
And then, of course, this is a live show, and I hit the wrong button, but I thought, well, you know, it does kind of fit in with the depopulation agenda, and you want to see what depopulation looks like?
Chopped up bodies from babies to euthanasia, right?
I mean, it really does fit.
These people want to kill everybody.
That's the bottom line with the agendas.
Oh, I just left the...
You know, after I hit the wrong button, I just let that commercial run.
Microsoft unveils a creepy AI-powered Windows that tracks everything that you do.
They call it Copilot.
AI-enhanced Windows PC. Isn't this interesting?
You know, because... I'm not a fan of Windows.
I have a Windows computer now to do the music stuff because I had my son put it together.
Apple, to have the capability, was going to be so incredibly expensive.
And he said, I can put together one.
And he did. He put together a really fast system.
We saved by not having a GPU processor on it.
But we optimized the memory access by using the SSDs, things like that, self-state memory drives and things like that.
So, and added a lot of memory for it because that's really what it needs.
But I just hate using the Windows operating system.
This thing is 40-plus years old, right?
And they still can't do a file search.
You type in something, Delta, search for a file, and it's like, think, think, think.
When you're in the Mac, as soon as you're typing this stuff, it's giving you options.
It's ridiculous that they still can't do a file search.
Now, these people want to tell you that this new co-pilot AI assistant It's going to take constant screenshots of reactivity to track your every move and create a history to go back through.
Well, maybe this thing can search because they've never been able to do that in 40 years.
It's ridiculous. One of the simplest things on a computer, one of the central tasks that you would do on a computer.
Of course, I haven't been able to make them secure either.
Perhaps that is by design.
I always suspected it was.
Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella Introduce the new class of AI-embued personal computers.
As I said before, they're hoping they can breathe new life into these.
Emphasizing their potential to anticipate users' needs and intentions.
This is something else that I hate.
The profiling of people.
I was listening to the presentation earlier.
About a piece of music software and the instruments that they had.
And not the other stuff where you just type in to the AI. You describe the style of music you want and you just let it go do its thing.
It's different what I do.
I'm looking for essentially realistic samples of instruments that I can play.
This is a really old tactic that goes back to Stevie Wonder, Songs in the Key of Life, right?
Where they sampled natural animals and it hit different keys on the keyboard and it played digitized samples.
That was pretty crude at the time.
I mean, pretty advanced at the time, but really crude to look at it today.
That's essentially what this stuff is.
Some of them are better than others.
So I'm watching this.
And after the show, I'm pretty tired.
I fell asleep.
And the next thing I know, I wake up in the middle of this hour-long video by this heretical theologian, N.T. Wright, that I absolutely despise everything that he says.
And, but he's there pontificating about how, you know, his idea of what the Bible really should say and everything.
And so I stop it.
And now on YouTube, I get nothing but N.T. Wright videos.
I was showing Karen the other day. I said, look at this.
It's putting his video.
There's, you know, every screen that I've got, it's got two or three videos of N.T. Wright.
And it's like, how do I stop this?
The same thing happened with Netflix.
We discontinued it way back when they had DVDs.
And part of it was that they were pushing stuff on you.
Part of it was they kept recommending things that I had seen before.
Things that I told it I didn't want to see.
And then they started recommending stuff to me even after I said, don't show me this again.
They would still push it on me.
I hate having stuff pushed on me with computers.
I hate having updates pushed on me.
You know, what Apple has done is they constantly nag you to do an update, but they don't force you to do it.
And I hate doing updates because it always breaks things.
And especially if they do it after a couple of years, they point out they don't support older computers.
All my computers are more than five years old.
So, you know, I don't want an update to something that you haven't tested it on or even pretended to test it on.
Kind of the same logic as the mRNA shot.
So don't mRNA my computer, bro.
Which is what these automatic updates are.
But they are going to anticipate your needs.
They will decide what you need.
Just like they'll decide what you want to watch on YouTube or Netflix or whatever.
And what your intentions are.
We're entering this new era.
E-R-R-O-R. Where computers not only understand us, but can actually anticipate what we want.
And our intent.
And by the way, we've got a guest coming up in the third hour.
We're going to talk to him about AI. He's written a book on it.
And, you know, we need to debunk this whole mythology surrounding artificial intelligence.
And a lot of this is being pushed for financial reasons, folks.
Look at the stock market.
Most of it has been based around hopium, centered around AI. So these people are pushing it just like they pushed the mRNA shots on us, because they can make money from it.
Anyway, Copilot will have a photographic memory, and they mean that literally.
Grass of everything that you do constantly.
Of a user's activity, Microsoft claims that its privacy settings will be protected by allowing them to filter out unwanted tracking and keeping the tracking data on the device itself.
If you believe that, I've got a bridge in Brooklyn.
Seriously, do you really think anybody wants this?
Do you think anybody believes there's claims that your stuff is not going to be sold?
They will sell you out to commercial interests.
They will sell you out to the CIA and the NSA. This is why they're doing all of this stuff.
Here is the presentation.
And I think even the person who was interviewing them was...
Or maybe if it was a Microsoft thing, they put out the objections so that he can assuage people of their fears that they're being sold out and spied on, which you are.
How do we introduce memory, right?
Photographing memory into what you do on the PC. And now we have it.
So it's called recall.
It's not keyword search, right?
It's semantic search.
Yeah, because that would take forever. And it's not just about any doc.
We can recreate moments from the past, essentially.
Here's how it works. Windows constantly takes screenshots of what's on your screen, then uses a generative AI model right on the device, along with the NPU, to process all that data and make it searchable, even photos.
I got to try it out. I searched brown.
Leather bag.
It came up in visual search.
There's no place on this page that it says brown leather bag.
It just knows because it sees this brown leather bag.
There could be this reaction from some people that this is pretty creepy.
Microsoft is taking screenshots of everything I do.
Yeah, I mean, that's why you can only do it on the edge.
You have to put two things together.
This is my computer.
This is my recall.
And it's all being done locally.
Yeah, well, you don't really care about my computer, do you?
You force updates on me.
And when we talk about search things, of course, this is not a keyword search because we still can't do that after 40 years.
I use this.
The only thing that I try to do with Microsoft is to boot it up and then to go into my program where I live all the time.
Anything else, it's like, stay away from this thing.
I try to do it all on the Mac.
But anyway, it goes beyond that.
And I think we have an interesting juncture here with AI. And of course, this brings up a question with AI. How much is that going to cut down the life of your battery?
Well, this thing is constantly taking photographs, constantly thinking and predicting what you want and all the rest of the stuff.
It may not be as bad as their data centers where they're scraping the internet constantly and building their large language models by...
Using everybody's copyrighted stuff without paying them anything.
But it's a big issue.
And they are so concerned about it that Sam Altman is now creating a company to do nuclear power to run his massive processing centers.
And remember, I talked about this for the longest time.
When we go back to March of 2022, and Biden does an all-of-government program to push CBDC, And it breaks it down, everybody in government, all of the deep swamp, which is all under the executive branch.
You know, like the thing that Trump was over as president.
The entire...
He was elected president.
The executive branch contains all of the deep state.
All of these agencies were under Trump and he did nothing, right?
Anyway, but the...
When you look at the order that Biden put out, the all of government order to all of these swamp creatures, it broke down into four different areas.
First of all, let's completely redesign the financial system.
Let's design the computer software that's going to operate the CBDC. Let's figure out how we're going to use the Department of Justice and the FBI and all this other law enforcement to bludgeon people into submission to use this.
And then the fourth one was, let's talk about climate change and how cryptocurrency uses so much energy, and it's got to be replaced with the CBDC, that we'll use less energy because there's not any mining that's going on.
You know, it's just we don't have any proof of work.
We don't do any work, so it uses less energy.
We just tell you, we're going to create some new money, and we can do that because of who we are.
The old fiat system, digitized.
And so they realized that they needed to take down crypto.
They were going to do it on the basis that it uses too much energy.
And I said at the time, well, how much energy do their data centers use?
You know, like the NSA's Bluffdale, Utah Center that uses more power, more water than a city, and it does it out in the middle of the desert where they don't have any water.
Or all these other centers where they are storing everything.
Waiting for the day that they can have quantum computing or fast enough computers that they can go out and data mine everything that all of us have ever done on the internet.
You know, you think that the internet is disappearing?
It's not. It's going into the black hole of the NSA for sure, forever.
They said, I forget what the, I don't have the article here in front of me, but something like a third of internet has disappeared.
More than that for me.
You know, they memory-hold almost all the stuff that I've done in the past.
You can't find any of it anywhere.
YouTube, by itself, I mean, lots of videos with several million views just disappeared.
They don't exist anymore.
And so many things are being memory-hold.
You think of the Internet as fresh fruit.
But in reality, everything in our life is, right?
People think they have permanence because there's a statue or monument to them.
No, no.
It'll burn.
It'll fall down.
It'll be in ruins someday.
There's nothing that anybody does that can't be defaced or lied about or destroyed.
And so, it's no great loss, really.
You know, these types of records were never around before.
So, yeah, it's disappearing, except that it's not.
And the NSA, they're paying a lot of money to keep everything recorded.
And so, you know, shut up about that hypocrisy.
And then shut up about artificial intelligence, I said.
So you're going to focus on cryptocurrency energy usage, but you're not going to say anything about your surveillance state and the massive amount of energy that it's using to store and to data mine everything in the world.
Or... Artificial intelligence.
It does the same thing, right?
It scans everything in the world and stores it and so forth.
Well, these companies that are pushing artificial intelligence, they know three things.
First of all, they know that our government and all the United States and the European governments are working very hard to shut down our energy grid, right? They want to shut down the electrical grid.
So they know that.
They also know that their carbon footprint collectively probably outstrips most states, in turn, most governments, most nation states.
And it's absolutely, incredibly large, and it's going to get even larger.
And so...
They know that. They know that the grid is being shut down, and so they also know that their carbon footprint doesn't matter, but they're going to not be able to have this, even though they're given a pass, just like we give a pass to China, we give a pass to Bill Gates, or we give a pass to Taylor Swift.
Of course, they would give a pass to their buddies, artificial intelligence, but they've got to be able to find that energy somewhere.
Third thing is, like every industry, they need to have power.
And yet, we can't have an industry that makes steel or makes cars.
We can't have the power to grow food.
But we will have the power for the artificial intelligence surveillance state, won't we?
They will make sure of it.
And which would you rather have?
Well, that doesn't matter. What does the government want you to have?
Does it want you to have cars and food and steel and things like that?
Or does it want you to have, you know, complete surveillance of everything that you do forever?
Oh, that's what they want.
So that's what they're going to have. So how do they do that?
Well, they're starting to move into creating their own nuclear power industry because the government's not going to do it, you see.
They don't tell you they've got to shut everything down because of emissions.
Well, the nuclear power doesn't have any emissions.
Not of CO2. It has nuclear emissions that you can't see.
But they're not concerned about safety for anybody.
They're not concerned about what do we do with the nuclear waste for a thousand years until we figure out how to treat this stuff.
No, we'll just store it and literally kick the biohazard can down the road.
They're not going to worry about that.
So, um, this new company is being listed on the New York stock exchange by Sam Altman.
It will design and deploy advanced fission power plants to provide the clean and affordable energy needed to power the flood of data centers that are popping up around the nation.
as part of the AI revolution because Biden is killing the grid.
They've got to create their own grid.
And they'll be allowed to because they are favored stakeholders.
You know, what if the steel companies wanted to set up their own nuclear power plant?
Do you think they'd be allowed to? Jennifer Granholm would shut them down in a heartbeat.
The company's mission is to provide, quote, clean, reliable, affordable energy on a global scale.
They'll do it everywhere. And they'll be given a pass everywhere, just like China, India, on a global scale through the design deployment of next-generation fast reactor technology.
And, of course, this will further entrench their power.
And we're in the middle. You want to talk about wars?
You know, we talk about the fourth turning.
We've had in America the Revolutionary War.
That was the fourth turning. We had the Civil War.
That was the fourth turning. Great Depression, World War II. Do you know that we're...
Of course, everybody likes to talk about the Ukrainian War, the Israeli-Middle East wars and stuff like that.
But there's another war out there.
The Artelect War that Hugo de Garris talked about.
And I interviewed him several times because I think that's the real war.
That is going on that nobody sees, nobody talks about.
In his book, there were two components to it.
One is, should we continue on with artificial intelligence?
Because as a secular materialist, he believed that if they could accurately reproduce the human brain, that this artificial synthetic thing would just spring to life.
Well, I never believed that.
But he said, when people realize what the agenda is with artificial intelligence and robotics, How they want to take everything from us.
He said this long before Klaus was bragging about, you'll own nothing and be happy.
He said that when people find out that the plan is to make sure they own nothing and they're going to be shut down, they're not going to be happy.
They're going to come after the global elite and they will fight back.
And he called it the Artilect War.
Artificial Intelligence War.
And that's what I think it'll be. I think it'll be an AI war, and I think these people are setting up their own power, independent power grid and everything else.
And of course, as the government shuts down the power grid for you and I, so we can't have cars, we can't have food, we can't have manufacturing, they will make sure they've got their own separate power system that only they are allowed to use.
And now you can see that the global governance of these AI overlords, Are setting up their own power system, and they will be allowed to do it.
I'm sure Jennifer Granholm will be just fine with anything they decide to do, just like the FDA is fine with anything that Pfizer, Moderna, and Big Pharma want to do.
Zero Hedge said, last month we warned that the shortage of power is delaying new data centers by two to six years, and it's also driving big tech companies into the energy business.
And, of course, this is a manufactured shortage.
Isn't that interesting? The only manufacturing that the government of America and UK, Europe, the only manufacturing that they're interested in is manufacturing shortages.
Shortages of energy.
Shortages of every manufactured good, right?
Shortage of power.
Amazon recently struck a $650 million deal to buy a data center in Pennsylvania powered by an on-site 2.5 gigawatt nuclear power plant.
Gigawatts, Marty. Yeah.
So, let's just say this.
You know, given what we've seen from AI and some of these other things, do you really trust them to run a nuclear power plant?
Are they going to put the AI in charge of a nuclear power plant?
Is the AI going to hallucinate and pull out all the rods or something?
I mean, are they going to be hallucinating over pictures of black 17th century Scottish Highlanders while the alarms are going off?
I mean, this is Google we're talking about.
Google and Microsoft, do you really trust these guys?
With something critical like nuclear power?
To me, I think they're going to be like Sam Britton, you know, who was put by the Biden administration in charge of nuclear waste.
But, you know, of course, he's too busy deciding what his fashion accessories are going to be tonight and doing his eyeliner that he, I really have serious doubts as to whether or not he could do a job like that.
Not a serious person.
Not focused, I think.
Or focused on the wrong thing.
The company's mission is to provide clean, reliable, affordable energy, they say.
Well, do you really trust that?
Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, Peter Thiel, the who's who of the AI revolution, nuclear fusion startups, all of them are gaining traction.
Sam Altman, who started this back in 2015, he's just the reason this is making news now, nine years later.
It's because his plan is being put out publicly on the New York Stock Exchange.
The company is Oklo.
He believes that Oklo is, quote, best positioned to commercialize advanced fission energy solutions.
But it's going to be power for thee and not for me.
Last month, we published a lengthy report discussing why, says Zero Hedge, even as the AI trade may be fizzling.
In other words, they're saying, you know, the darling of the stock market has been AI. And while that may be fizzling, they said, the electrification trade, also known as Power Up America, That is so urgently needed to run those electricity gobbling data centers that are needed to run AI and the surveillance state of the NSA and all these other things.
That is just getting started, they said.
And has, in fact, outperformed substantially both the broader AI and data center equipment baskets over the past two months.
Well, we'll see about that.
But what they're saying is that the government has manufactured something, finally.
All these people say government doesn't make anything.
Well, yeah, they do. They make shortages.
They make inflation.
They make all kinds of things.
You just don't want them.
They make wars, right?
Government makes all kinds of things.
Bad things. You're a bad man.
I want to wish you under the cornfield.
We're going to take a quick break.
We'll be right back. You're
listening to The David Knight Show.
Well, let's talk a little bit about the lawfare, the celebrity trial that is going on.
As I said, we don't have debates.
We're not going to have debates about issues.
Instead, we're going to have reality TV shows, you know, about Biden's mental health, about Trump's debauched moral character and all the rest of the stuff.
And now they've added something new into the mix as the trials are getting very tired and worn.
And the trial in New York of Trump for the Hooker Hush Fund money and how that was spent and reported, that is winding down.
It's just waiting for the jury to come back.
The one about the documents has been postponed until after the election.
So they need to have something new.
They need to have, well, something that is melodramatic.
And so they've got a movie that's going to be coming out, The Apprentice.
And at the Cannes Film Festival...
That was a lot of what they were talking about.
You had Oliver Stone there, who is not a Trump supporter, but even he said this lawfare stuff that is happening, and I've said it myself, I'm not a Trump supporter, and I think that this lawfare stuff is a very bad precedent.
It's very dangerous.
And I said, Donald Trump has given all indications that he's going to run with it as well.
In the same way that Trump, who just got the endorsement of the NRA, because, of course, They want to be on a side that is possibly going to win.
And they want to be seen as winners, right?
I don't trust the NRA. I've never belonged to the NRA. Gun owners of America and there's some other groups that are out there are genuine.
And they'll fight over the principle.
NRA will not fight over the principle.
I've seen it over and over and over again.
I won't go down the whole list of ways that they have betrayed us.
But they have.
Going back to even what Sheriff Mack did in terms of the laws during the Clinton administration, took it all to the Supreme Court and won, fighting them.
But the NRA signed on to all of that stuff.
But getting back to what's happening with this lawfare, Oliver Stone is at the Cannes Film Festival.
And he was actually gleeful about this Trump Apprentice movie.
He really liked that.
He's there. He's doing or has done a movie on the Marxist corrupt dictator of Brazil, Lula.
I mean, come on.
This guy is just unbelievably corrupt.
And, of course, a Marxist. I guess that's why Oliver Stone likes him.
But even Oliver Stone said this lawfare is a very bad idea.
He said it's being used to take down Trump.
And we all see it.
You know, we see the Trump derangement syndrome on the left, and we all see the Trump delusional, the strong delusion that has been sent to the Trump supporters on the right.
But he said these charges that Trump is fighting are minor.
And, you know, he's not on trial for something like, you know, mass murder of killing bunches of people with a poison that he pushed and continued to push, nothing like that.
Nothing about treason, you know, saying, we'll take the guns and do the due process later, you know, stuff like that.
Setting a precedent of the...
Bump stock and the pistol brace, which even the pistol brace as he shut it down, was picked up again by Biden.
Of course, Biden picked up the precedent of gun control by executive order, but the NRA doesn't have a problem with that.
And this precedent of lawfare that Biden is setting, I think that's going to be picked up by Trump, just like Biden picked up Trump's gun control by executive order precedent.
I think that Trump will pick up this lawfare.
He gives all indications that's what this is really about.
I'm going to get revenge. I'm going to do the lawfare to him if I get in.
You see, the Democrats are Republicans, the Union Party, are trying to push us into a civil war.
Everybody sees the injustice of this, but there's so much personal attachment to these parties and to these politicians or personal revulsion about these politicians.
Like I said, people are not attached to Biden.
They're repulsed by Trump.
Or you have people who absolutely love Trump and will excuse everything that he's done.
And just like we saw with Dennis Hastert, who was a known pedophile before they even picked him to run for Congress and put him in.
Before he became Speaker of the House, before he became the longest-serving Speaker of the House, and all this stuff surfaced about him being a pedophile.
The statute of limitations had ended.
They could have changed that, but they chose not to.
The judge who sent Dennis Astor to jail...
Did it because of a supposed structuring of withdrawals.
He was asked questions about the money he was taking out to pay his blackmailer years later after he retired.
And they said, well, you can't do that.
Why not? Why is it any of their business when you take money out?
It's not like you're even trying to avoid paying taxes.
Why would they have?
That money has already been in the system.
It's been in the bank. Why would they care about that?
They shouldn't care about that, but that's what they sent him to jail for.
But when the judge sentenced him, he referenced the pedophilia, because we all knew that was what it was about.
But they're not going to come after Trump for his mass murder, for his treason, locking us down and declaring martial law and war against us, just as the World Economic Forum wanted, as the UN wanted, as the WHO wanted.
That's why I call him Benedict Donald.
They're not going to come after him for any of that stuff because all these people who would put the charges against him are complicit, Democrat and Republican.
But Oliver Stone says the charges on both sides of the Trump-Biden election are pretty wild.
That Biden is corrupt, he is.
That Trump is corrupt, and he is.
You know, they both are.
But he says it's a new form of warfare, and it's called lawfare, and it's what they're using against Trump.
He said Trump's four trials and some of these charges, he said whether you're for him or against him, these charges are minor.
And again, he's there promoting a film about the Brazilian Marxist president, Lula.
In the recent past, Stone has expressed regret for supporting President Biden.
He said, I voted for him.
I made a mistake. Why?
Because Biden is dragging the country into potential World War III with Russia.
That's one of the things.
Of course, he's trying to destroy America with open borders.
He's trying to destroy America with dismantling the grid.
He says, I see a man, Biden, who maybe is not in charge of his own administration.
He's not in charge of his own mind, Oliver.
Who knows if he's going to fall down somewhere.
It seems that he's dragging us stupidly into a confrontation with a power that is not going to give.
That's the whole point.
The two-time Oscar-winning filmmaker lashed out on Twitter in 2021 and Over its decision to ban Trump, he called the move shocking while he also criticized the country's growing trend towards censorship, which is being carried out on social media companies at the behest of the Biden administration and with the passive complicity of the Trump administration.
Folks, it was 2018 that I got kicked off and Alex Jones got kicked off and InfoWars got kicked off and they did it openly.
And then two months later, that was in August, two months later, Just before the midterm elections, they kicked off 800 other sites that didn't get as much attention.
These are sites that were against for the most...
Some of them were for Trump.
Half of them were not for Trump.
What they all had in common was they were against the surveillance state and the police state and war.
And they kicked off 800 of those sites two months after we got kicked off.
So, all this happened and Trump did nothing to defend our God-given rights.
You see, his duty is not just to avoid censoring us, but his duty is to defend our God-given rights.
That's the purpose of government, you know.
According to our founding documents, we're endowed by our Creator with certain inalienable rights.
And they list a few of them.
And it is the duty of the government to protect those rights.
And when the government becomes destructive of those rights, then it is our right and duty to alter or to abolish that government.
And we don't do it, do we?
We're just as complicit in all of this stuff as Trump is.
As a matter of fact, the two people who did all this stuff to us in the last four years are the two frontrunners, and everybody's cheering for one of them to be president.
We don't want to alter or abolish the powers that they used against us in this medical martial law and this treasonous shutdown.
No, we want these guys more of it.
We're endorsing all of that by voting for Trump or Biden, which is why I will not vote for either one of them.
I'm not voting for RFK Jr.
either. Now, we're going to have the Constitution Party on the ballot here in Tennessee, but if I didn't have that option...
I would just mark up the ballot when I go on to vote for local offices.
That's the only reason I'm going to go.
There's not anybody in Tennessee I'm going to support either because they all voted to shut down the First Amendment because Israel demanded it.
Every single one of these GOP critters in Congress voted to shut down the First Amendment here in Tennessee.
I'm not voting for a single one of them.
But I will vote for the local people.
So what about all this lawfare against Biden's political enemies, you know, like the pro-lifers?
Do we care about that?
No, we only care about what he's doing to Trump, don't we?
Do we care about what Biden is doing to the January Sixers?
No, we don't! We only care about Trump.
Even though the January Sixers were there to support Trump, we don't care what happens to them.
We don't care about the lawfare that's being done against Julian Assange, do we?
Because that began in the Trump administration.
That began with his CIA Attorney General, Bill Barr, that he picked.
I mean, he picks the worst people.
And any other person would be held accountable by the voters for the people that they put in high office, except for Trump.
Oh, this poor Trump, he's just misled.
He just doesn't know. Well, you keep telling yourself that.
You keep telling yourself that he's not taking orders, that he's not taking money.
Come on. Grow up.
Get real. This is the real world.
Learn something. Stop with the MAGA caps and all the rest of this stuff.
Stop making America gullible again.
I'm so sick of this gullible crowd, the MAGA crowd.
So what about the lawfare that Biden is doing against cars?
What about the lawfare that they're doing against the electric grid and the appliances and our own food?
I mean, it's a combination of regulation with our representation and lawfare.
Why don't we care about that?
No, we care about these reality TV shows.
And we care about defending a known adulterer, somebody who is addicted to sex.
Donald Trump. Why do we care about that?
Why do we care? To me, it's like defending Hunter Biden.
You know, they just... They just have different addictions, quite frankly.
Yeah, Assange committed no crime.
What he did was he exposed the uniparty spooks, the people who really run in the government.
He exposed the real government.
That's why they're trying to kill him.
That's why they've had him in jail all these years.
And Trump was a part of that as well.
Trump and Biden, part of that.
No, neither one of them will shut it down.
Trump had the option to pardon Julian Assange.
Alex told us he's going to do it.
He did it right up to the last day.
Alex said he's going to do it tonight before midnight.
But, you know, Trump is all we care about.
We have to lie and spin and pretend and have this Orwellian double-think about everything that Trump does.
We don't apply the same rules to him.
Because if we did, nobody would be supporting him.
But he got there because of all these trials.
These trials have worked out to his advantage.
He never had to debate anybody on any issues.
He avoided all the debates.
Just talked about his reality TV show.
Well, let's talk a little bit about the reality TV show.
As I pointed out yesterday, I played the clip.
I think it is really a funny clip, and I'm going to play it again.
This is the Anderson Cooper clip where he's talking about Cohen being caught on Friday, caught dead in a lie.
And what is interesting about this is just watch the expression of Anderson Cooper.
You know, he's sitting there, and you know what he's saying?
He's saying, I'm going to look like an idiot and a shill if I try to defend Michael Cohen, because he just exposed himself as a liar.
But on the other hand, I know that my audience here on CNN, especially the Hollywood crowd, is just going to eviscerate me if I don't somehow say that this is, how do I defend this?
You know, how do I defend this liar?
How do I try to pretend that there really is something here?
Because that's what my CNN audience wants to hear.
They want to hear that Trump's a bad man, and he needs to go to jail.
We need to wish him into the cornfield or the jail, more specifically.
And so, what do I do?
And you can see him and hear him stuttering as he's doing all this stuff.
It's very much like I've seen Alex do this live on air as well.
I know Trump is killing people, but I'm going to tell him that it's, yeah, it's sugar water.
Remember that video, you know, talking about that?
You can see him actually, yeah, that's what it is.
It's like John Lovett, who used to do the liar, you know.
Yeah. And then I died.
And then I came back. And then there's Morgan Fairchild.
Yeah, my wife, Morgan Fairchild.
That was a joke decades ago.
But now it really happens with people like Alex Jones and people like Anderson Cooper.
Having just witnessed that piece of cross-examination, do you have doubts that that conversation happened the way Michael Cohen testified on his direct examination?
I think it's...
Absolutely.
Absolutely. I think it's devastating, I mean, for Michael Cohen's credibility on this, I mean, on this one particular topic, whether it's, you know, he just didn't...
I mean, it's hard to...
I don't know. Yes. I think if I was a juror in this case, watching that, I would think, this guy's making this up as he's going along, or he's making this particular story up.
This particular story? You were testifying just on Tuesday in this court, and all morning long he's been pointing out, You know, inconsistencies in Michael Cohn's testimony, or at least questionable aspects of Michael Cohn's testimony, but nothing that you would necessarily, as a juror, think, okay, that's clearly a lie.
Maybe he was misunderstanding, or he was bragging, or whatever.
This one, Todd Blanche clearly saved this to right before the lunch break, I'm assuming, because it was just so well-crafted And just point by point walking through this story, which at first seemed, you know, this seems like a ridiculous story.
Some 14-year-old is sending him, you know, nasty text messages, and he's going to call Keith Schiller about it.
And then you realize, he showed the phone logs that the prosecutor had shown, and it's the phone call that Michael Cohen had previously talked about.
I think it is severely damaging to Michael Cohen's testimony.
Yeah, well, you know, you had a lot of people who were saying, I even saw some of the comments that said, Michael Cohen's not going to be the last witness for the prosecution.
He's just not credible. You always want to put your strongest witness there at the end.
And, of course, this hack, district attorney, doesn't know what he's doing.
There's no crime here. There's no credibility with this guy.
And then, you know, this week it blew up.
As Trump finally has a good lawyer, and this lawyer who walked Cohen through and got him to admit to being a liar, also got him to walk through this and admit to being a thief.
The judge was absolutely furious, and he took it out on one of these defense witnesses who came in, who had been a lawyer for Michael Cohen.
And he doubled down on the fact that Cohen was also stealing.
Or was also lying.
But then he also talked and pointed out how Cohen was actually stealing, not just a liar, but also a thief.
The judge was really angry with this lawyer, Robert Costello.
And he kept sustaining, one after the other, everything that he said.
Objection! Sustained! Objection!
Sustained! You know, shut up, this guy!
And he said, stop giving me this side-eye.
Don't side-eye me.
Don't roll your eyes at me.
He was furious.
He called him contemptuous. He cleared the court.
Approached the event. So let's talk about all this stuff.
But there's only so much that this corrupt judge can do with this non-crime here.
And so when he scolds this witness, who was also a lawyer, Costello, Called him contemptuous.
Okay. Cleared the courtroom.
Judge Merchant first excused jurors to warn Costello about not exclaiming.
Not saying G's or rolling his eyes or giving him the side eye.
Don't you give me the side eye.
Are you staring me down right now?
He said to him. I don't know.
I'm just wondering how. And then he cut him off.
Cleared the courtroom. After the courtroom was cleared to reporters and spectators, the judge confronted Costello.
I'm putting you on notice that your conduct is contemptuous.
If you try to stare me down one more time, I will remove you from the stand, and I will strike this entire testimony.
Do you understand me? He would have loved to strike all that testimony because it was very incriminating to Trump.
Costello was a very important witness because he talked about how, again, Cohen said, I don't have any evidence against my former boss.
He said, I swear, Bob, I don't have anything on Trump.
And so previously he testified that Trump knew that he was reimbursing Cohen for the payments to Daniels and so forth to avoid negative publicity.
But then came the theft aspect.
Cohen has paid $420,000 in general, $130,000 to Stormy Daniels, $50,000 that he claimed was owed for campaign-related tech services from a company called Redfinch.
Now, Red Finch was the tech company that the Trump campaign was paying to rig the Drudge Report poll online and some other things of that nature.
So yeah, dirty stuff.
But anyway, then he bumps that up and then he doubles everything.
And then he puts in a $60,000 bonus.
And so Todd Blanche says, you stole from the Trump Organization.
Cohen said, yes, sir.
Blanche then suggested that Cohen stole $60,000, not just $30,000, because the reimbursement payment was doubled.
Cohen said, yes, sir.
Did you ever have to plead guilty to larceny?
He said, no, sir.
And so you got people on CNN... Ellie Hunnig, who said that Cohen stealing from Trump is a more serious crime than falsifying business records.
And, you know, so is murdering millions of people and, you know, suspending the Constitution with an executive order and all the rest of this stuff and boasting and lying about what you just did.
Those are all serious things.
Selling out the Constitution, the World Health Organization, World Economic Forum.
Those are really serious things.
But, of course, he's covered with all of that, just as I said earlier.
But, yeah, this is a non-crime brought by these prosecutors who want to be in the spotlight.
It is there just to remind people what a low-life, sex-addicted thug Trump is.
And all that is true, but the actual crimes are not there.
But, you know, the lawfare is a hallmark of Biden.
It's not just against Trump.
We have pro-life organizations and individuals who are various individuals who violated the so-called FACE Act, which in itself is, I think, a violation of the Constitution.
It should be shut down. It's never been enforced until Biden decided that he's going to enforce it, that he's going to send elderly people to jail for life because they tried to talk about life.
The people who are about to kill their babies.
And because, to their credit, they were able to get some people to walk out and not have the abortion.
They went in, they gave them alternatives to abortion, and these people walked out.
And I think that's why you have these people who did it are just fine with whatever is thrown at them.
They don't want to go through the suffering.
But in the bigger scheme of things, they understand and they have no regrets, unrepentant about what they did because they know they saved some babies' lives those days.
But the Biden administration is going to use lawfare.
The Department of Justice, besides sending these people to jail on criminal charges, has now instituted lawsuits against the organizations.
So send the individuals to jail and now lawsuits to shut down and kill the organizations.
And also lawsuits against seven people.
The two pro-life organizations are Citizens for Pro-Life Society and the Red Rose Rescue.
At least two couples at the Planned Parenthood facility left after speaking to Handy, who's going to be getting years in jail, and Miller, which Miller described as, quote, a very good sign that gives us hope.
The other group, the Red Rose Rescue, They have pro-lifers who enter an abortion facility and hand the pregnant mothers red roses with cards that offer them options other than abortion.
It says on it, A new life, however, however tiny, brings the promise of unrepeatable joy.
And some of them took that card and walked out.
Did not kill their baby.
And I would tell you, these people who did that would say it's worth it.
I would have said it's worth it.
To go to jail for that.
Those participating in the Red Rose rescues, No, they face the possibility of arrest.
They refuse to leave the clinic should they be ordered to do so by law enforcement.
Instead, they will peacefully resist by kneeling or lying down on the ground.
And it's not just this organization.
They want $50,000 in lawsuit against these different ones.
It's not just them.
It's David Daleiden.
Who, if you remember, it was Lala Harris, who was the attorney general in California, when they exposed the murder-for-hire and trafficking in baby body parts.
It was Lala Harris who prosecuted them.
And then as she got promoted to Senate, her job as prosecutor was taken over, as attorney general, was taken over by Javier Becerra.
And he continued the prosecution against David Daleiden in the Center for Medical Progress.
And then she became vice president, and Javier Becerra became head of HHS, which is very appropriate because it was HHS, specifically the NIH, that were the customers.
And isn't it interesting that we would not have known that it was the government that was the biggest customer of this murder-for-hire baby body part thing unless David Daleiden had been persecuted, persecuted by Lala Harris and Javier Becerra.
God works in mysterious ways, doesn't he?
Sometimes it's very difficult for what we go through, but God has his purposes.
And so, yeah, criminal and civil lawfare against these people by the Biden administration.
And when we look at what has happened in Oklahoma, for example, immigration.
We've seen the so-called Department of Justice under Biden use all kinds of lawfare against Texas when they try to protect the border, when they try to arrest criminals.
And now Oklahoma is starting to do the same thing, so the Department of Justice has filed a lawsuit against Oklahoma.
Lawfare to keep the border open.
Not only will they not do their job, and that was something going back to DACA, Obama's Department of Justice had said, well, we're not going to enforce the law.
We're going to defer action on that.
They took the oath of office to enforce the law.
They took the oath of office to the Constitution.
They don't care what they swear to.
These are oath breakers.
People of no honor, illegal, and yet they will not enforce the law, but they will do everything they can to stop anyone who is actually trying to enforce the law.
Anyone who's trying to protect this country because they're trying to destroy this country.
Not a penny for the border, but fighting Texas, fighting Oklahoma when they try to do their duty.
Yeah, that kind of lawfare as well.
Are we concerned about that kind of lawfare?
Well, some people are concerned about that.
Even the people who are supporting Trump are concerned about that.
But, you know, the lawfare against the pro-lifers and against the babies that are being murdered, they don't care about that.
James Carville thinks there's only a 50-50 chance of a presidential debate happening.
And he thinks the number one issue for Biden is abortion.
What does that say about the party of death?
When their number one issue is we need to kill more babies.
Wow. Wow.
And then he says, and then the other thing that we can do is we can make energy a focus.
Shutting it down. They want to kill energy.
They want to kill babies. They want to kill food.
They want to kill everything, including us, because this is all about a depopulation agenda.
Well, going back to where I started with Oliver Stone, he's at the Cannes Film Festival, pushing his movie about a Marxist politician.
Even he thinks his lawfare stuff is ridiculous and an embarrassment.
He's not trying to explain it away like Anderson Cooper.
And yet, when they got his reaction to the Trump Apprentice movie, this is what he had to say.
Here we are. It's Oliver Stone on the movie about Trump called Apprentice.
I think it's spectacular.
Yeah? And also, we need more political movies, and you come from that realm, don't you?
Sorry? It's dramatic. It's not about politics, it's about character.
And it's Citizen Kane in that regard.
Oh, it's an interesting idea.
Citizen Kane in that regard.
And because, you know, The Apprentice, of course, was TV, the TV show, and I explain that to people because I figure maybe there's some other people out there who have never watched Trump on The Apprentice.
I never did. I didn't get the joke in, what was it, A Bug's Life or, yeah, A Bug's Life, Travis is saying, yep.
They had those two little bugs and they're saying to each other, you're fired.
No, you're fired. I didn't know what that was like straight over my head.
I had no idea what that was about.
So I never watched The Apprentice, but what they did, the central premise of The Apprentice, I think, is valid.
I think it is a cartoon character assassination, it sounds like.
I haven't seen it. It sounds like a cartoon character assassination.
But The Fundamental Apprentice is actually true.
The idea being, and I thought it was an interesting idea, that a young Donald Trump was kind of in the position of being an apprentice to one of the most vile, corrupt, vicious Machiavellian people the United States has had in the 20th century, Roy Cohn, who was Tail Gunner Joe's number one guy in the McCarthy trials, but that's the least of what he did.
I mean, those people, there was a lot of communist influence.
And that needed to be exposed.
But of course, he was doing all kinds of stuff.
The guy died of AIDS. He was a closet homosexual all of his life, just like J. Edgar Hoover.
And yet, just like J. Edgar Hoover, the two of them prosecuted other homosexuals.
He was pushing all kinds of stuff, you know, to attack other homosexuals when he was one himself.
This is the way these guys operated, you know?
It's like our Congress now.
They do everything they can to harm America when they're Americans themselves.
You know, they just, they attack.
They eat their own. I think that's a particularly despicable characteristic.
But anyway, Roy Cullen was a real snake in every regard.
And he was the guy who mentored a young Donald Trump.
And the purpose of this movie is to show young, as he pointed out, a character study.
Showing Donald Trump becoming like Roy Cohen.
And when I saw that, I knew who Roy Cohen was before I knew who Donald Trump was.
When I saw that, it's like, ooh, there's a relationship there.
Of course, Roger Stone is tied into all this stuff as well.
He was close friends with Roy Cohen, and it shows.
I mean, it's pretty amazing.
So some critics either lauded it as a bone-chilling, cautionary tale, while others have dismissed it as a vapid cartoon depiction of Trump that never rises beyond a cheap polemic.
It's probably all of that.
A cheap polemic as well as a bone-chilling, cautionary tale.
Probably both, I would say.
Both. That'd be my guess.
I'm not interested in seeing it, by the way.
You know, they concoct a rape scene in it.
Put that kind of stuff in there and make it a central.
I'm not interested in seeing that.
It's just like Francis Ford Coppola's new movie.
He decided to make himself Francis Ford copulate.
I'm not interested in seeing a movie.
I felt the same way about Oppenheimer.
I was real interested in going to see Oppenheimer until I started reading about some of the scenes that they gratuitously put in there.
It's like, you don't need to put that in there.
You've just adulterated your movie with sex that is, you know, absolutely unnecessary.
And we know why you're doing it, and it's why I'm not going to go see it.
But anyway, the apprentice depicts Trump reacting with fury after Ivana disparages his physical appearance.
You have a face like an orange, she tells him.
You're getting fat. You're getting ugly.
You're getting bald. And the future president is then shown, forcing his wife to the floor and raping her.
In her 1990 divorce deposition, Ivana Trump described a similar assault that occurred shortly after her husband's scalp reduction surgery.
Scalp reduction? I don't know what that is.
He's been scalped.
She claimed that Trump pushed her to the floor and pulled out handfuls of her hair.
I guess also doing a scalp reduction.
Ivana eventually described what followed as rape.
But then after they got divorced, I guess, you know, maybe part of the agreement is she's going to say nice things about him for money.
Mr. Trump and I had marital relations in which he behaved very differently towards me on one occasion during 1989.
We had marital relations in which he behaved very differently toward me than he had during our marriage.
As a woman, I felt violated.
I referred to this as rape, but I do not want my words to be interpreted in a literal or criminal sense because, you know, he's paying me now.
This is the gift that just kept on giving.
He eventually got the last word.
He buried her in his golf course in order to get a tax advantage.
She is now a hole-in-one and a credit to the family.
That's the way that Trump sees her.
Her body is buried on the grounds of the Trump National Golf Course in Bedminster, New Jersey.
Well, Peter Bradshaw and The Guardian said, The monstrosity here is almost sentimental.
A cartoon Xeroxed from many other satirical Trump takes and knowing prophetic echoes of his political future.
Well, again, at the core, Roy Cohen mentored him.
One of the most ruthless, corrupt political hacks of the 20th century.
The Trump campaign, meanwhile, has threatened a lawsuit against The Apprentice.
This garbage is pure fiction, which you could apply that epithet to pretty much anything that Hollywood does, even the ones that are based on a true story.
You know, it's garbage and it's pure fiction.
So, I don't know. But they probably won't win the lawfare, even though they're probably right.
And think about the thin-skinned lawfare that is involved here.
You know, as one of his former lawyers said, Ty Cobb, he said he is...
A deeply wounded narcissist, as we see here, incapable of acting except out of his own perceived self-interest.
Or out of revenge. And so when you think about this, you know, this type of, and I've mentioned this many times, the kind of insults were thrown back and forth between Jefferson and Adams, the lies that they made up about each other.
What was said about Lincoln's father was his father, right?
His opponent accused his father of being a hatchet-faced nutmeg addict.
And Abraham Lincoln, a lawyer, sued the pants off of that guy.
No, he didn't. He didn't file a lawsuit.
People had thick skins.
People understood that you have free speech.
Now, that is the appropriate response if you've been slandered.
Like I said before, the censorship that government does is, in my opinion, always traceable back to politics or to religion.
But you know, if it's a one-on-one with private actors and stuff like that, if the private actors are not being directed to put out garbage about people as a character assassination, if they're not being directed to censorship people by the government, if they're just acting on their own, they might out of hatred Slander somebody, and the remedy to that is not to shut down free speech and have government censorship.
The remedy to that is to have a lawsuit, but that will be the way that Trump is going to react.
So we're going to take a quick break, and we will be right back.
Oh, by the way, let me just say before we take a break, I want to thank Audi for the tip yesterday.
I did not see it. Thank you very much.
And he says, pardon the rhetoric in the chat yesterday.
Just having a little fun with folks who are trying to stir up racial division in the chat.
Well, I didn't see any of that, but I appreciate that from Audi at Modern Retro Radio.
And... I would appreciate any tips that people have because we are at, this is the 22nd.
We've got about another eight or nine days left and we are spot on at 50%.
We've updated the gas gauge just to let you know.
So let me give you a commercial just to remind you that we were supported by your voluntary contributions.
We'll be right back. The common man.
They created common core to dumb down our children.
They created common past to track and control us.
Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing.
And the communist future.
They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary.
But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God.
That is what we have in common.
That is what they want to take away.
Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation.
They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us.
It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide.
Please share the information and links you'll find at TheDavidKnightShow.com Thank you for listening.
Thank you for sharing.
If you can't support us financially, please keep us in your prayers.
TheDavidKnightShow.com Well, let's talk a little bit about as an update, Troy talked about yesterday this absurd peer that the Pentagon has put in.
And they said that none of the aid that has been unloaded from the U.S. pier over the last couple of days has been delivered to the Palestinian population.
Are you surprised about that? If they're going to block a convoy of trucks with food and medicine, Not to let them come in over roads?
You think it's going to be any different with this pier?
Are they supposed to be impressed about the fact that the Pentagon built this?
Rube Goldberg is the veteran I talked about yesterday called it.
None of the aid that's been unloaded from the temporary pier the U.S. constructed off the coast of Gaza has been delivered to the Palestinian population.
As the U.S. works with the U.N. and Israel to identify safe delivery routes inside the enclave, The Pentagon said yesterday, several desperate Gazans intercepted trucks delivering aid from the pier over the weekend, leading the UN to suspend the delivery operations until the logistical challenges are resolved.
A Pentagon spokesperson, Major General Ryder, just interesting, just like the Ryder rental trucks is the way he spells his name, I guess.
He's a logistical guy.
As to whether any of the aid has been delivered to the people of Gaza, Ryder said, As of today, I do not believe so.
I have doubts, said a Gaza resident to CNN. I don't understand this floating pier.
Guess what? Neither do we.
Or what it indicates and what its purpose is.
See, it's just too stupid.
Nobody can understand this.
Does it have a different purpose or something?
Because this is like the dumbest way in the world to deliver aid.
They say it's for aid, but people are apprehensive.
Is this aid, or is it something else?
We know that the U.S. has never supported the Palestinian cause, so it's improbable that it is giving us aid without something in return.
And of course, in the past, you know, after...
They came in with some food trucks and then people were starving.
They rushed the food trucks and the Israelis, they say, panicked and started shooting people.
So then the U.S. said, all right, we'll deliver food by parachute.
And then they dropped the stuff out of the plane.
Some of the parachutes did not deploy.
They had these massive food pallets that acted like bombs.
Destroyed a couple of houses, killed some people.
All right, so we'll build a pier now.
Just open up Open up the road there and actually set this up and deliver it to people.
But this is the take that WND had.
Nearly 70% of Gaza aid from the U.S. Dash stolen.
These people are starving.
This is like Les Miserables.
Lock the guy up because he stole a loaf of bread.
Oh yeah, bad people.
These starving people stealing food off of these trucks.
They just basically mounted the trucks and helped themselves to some of the food parcels.
These starving thieves did this.
Isn't that amazing? A new 320 million, some people say more, 350 million, floating pier built by the U.S. military and the humanitarian aid was stolen.
By the people that should have had it given to them.
Eleven trucks were cleaned out by Palestinians on the journey to the World Food Program warehouse.
They've not seen trucks for a while, said a UN official to Reuters.
They just basically mounted the trucks and helped themselves to the food parcels.
Well, it's not just that.
You know, Israel has seized equipment from the Associated Press.
And then later, after they realized how bad the optics would be, they returned it.
They accused the Associated Press of violating the Al Jazeera ban.
I guess they thought the A standard for Al Jazeera instead of Associated Press.
Associated Press is bad enough.
The Israeli government sees some equipment belonging to the Associated Press on Tuesday, accusing the news agency of violating a recent ban against the Qatar-backed Al Jazeera network, which takes a pro-Palestinian stance.
But I guess, you know, for Breitbart, who has become so incredibly partisan that they are not a reliable source, and it is difficult.
It's one of the reasons why I don't cover it much.
It is difficult to know what is real and what is not coming out of Israel because there's so much propaganda on both sides.
But Israeli officials...
Reverse the decision, even though they said that the AP equipment violated their media law.
You see, they have a media law.
When, as I said before, free speech is never a crime.
Censorship is always a crime.
And censorship is usually there to cover up other crimes that are being committed by the government.
There is no free speech, no free press there in Israel.
They have contempt for the very idea.
As a matter of fact, they hate free speech and a free press here in the United States.
They also hate freedom of religion as well.
And so the Israeli government is actually putting pressure on people like Machiavelli and Mike to shut down our own First Amendment because they hate it so much.
The Foreign Press Association is alarmed by Israel's confiscation of Associated Press' broadcasting equipment today.
Along the Israeli border near Gaza, they wrote, This is the latest in a series of chilling steps by the Israeli government to stifle the media.
And an opposition leader, Lapid, said this is an act of madness.
You know, he's an Israeli.
And he said this in Hebrew.
So, is this guy who criticized, because, you know, we're told by Machiavelli and Mike and the non-governmental organization that he referenced to define what anti-Semitism is.
We're told that anti-Semitism is criticism of the government of Israel.
This guy is an opposition politician, and he has criticized...
Netanyahu's coalition government, you know, Netanyahu does not have even a simple majority of 50 plus 1.
50% plus 1.
This is a parliamentary situation, and so as we saw in the Netherlands, we have multiple political parties.
Actually, I think it's a better system than what we have.
But when they select a prime minister, it comes from the party.
Directly elect a president, so it comes from parties, and I believe it's the same way in Israel.
And so when Gert Wilder's party won the most votes but still didn't get past 50%, he had to put together a coalition of the other parties so they could get past 50%.
And the same thing happened in Israel.
They had election after election after election where Netanyahu did not get over 50% on his own.
He needed to have a coalition party with other people.
He continued to try to put these coalitions together, and they continued to fail.
It took Gert Wilder's months to put together a coalition.
And so, is it anti-Semitic to criticize a politician who doesn't even have majority support?
He's got a majority coalition, but he doesn't have majority support himself.
There are people in Israel, political issues as well as religious issues, the ultra-Orthodox don't like Zionism in general, and they don't like this secular government, and the secular government doesn't like them and makes no bones about it.
So are they anti-Semitic?
Are the ultra-Orthodox Jews anti-Semitic because they criticize this political Israel?
Is this politician anti-Semitic?
Well, you know, I guess Mike Johnson and Netanyahu would say, yes, he is.
Punish him. Netanyahu reacted to the International Criminal Court's indictment.
He said they are pouring water, pouring gasoline on the fires of anti-Semitism.
You see, if you criticize him or you indict him, you're anti-Semitic.
So that's his response.
He doesn't defend his reactions.
He calls his critics anti-Semitic.
You criticize me?
This is what Fauci did, isn't it?
Fauci said, you criticize me?
You're anti-Science.
Netanyahu says, you criticize me?
You're anti-Semitic.
That's what it is.
You criticize a politician in a foreign government?
You criticize a government?
Oh, well, then you are racist.
No. No.
You're doing what should be protected in a democracy.
It's called a tyranny when you don't support that kind of stuff.
So to criticize Netanyahu is no more anti-Semitism than criticizing Fauci as anti-science, folks.
Don't fall for this stuff.
And what that does is when you...
Doesn't that insight...
You see Fauci doing that?
These people out there, they're anti-science.
Well, no, we're not. And it shows what he is.
It shows he's a liar, a thief.
He's posturing on all this stuff.
And it shows that Netanyahu is a liar, a thief, a murderer, just like Fauci is.
This is why they censor people, to hide their crimes.
It's why they call people racist.
It's why we shouldn't care what the Anti-Defamation League or what the Southern Poverty Law Center or what the AIPAC or any of these people say about us.
They're nothing. They're a bunch of lying, criminal murderers out there.
And they will say anything to get their way.
And this shows that that's what that is.
As I showed you yesterday, you know, a good example of this is this Sky News thing.
I'm going to play it again because you need to look at this.
You know, this is a reporter saying, you know, what about all this grave of mass murderers?
And I didn't talk about it yesterday, but the bottom chyron says, well, the U.S. is going to withhold...
Money from this particular IDF agency.
Oh, really? Just from that particular one?
And yet this politician doesn't have the decency to say, well, I don't think that they were actually, I can't believe that the Israeli government would handcuff people that they have captured combatants and shoot them in the back of the head and put them in a mass grave.
Because she believes that's true.
Instead, she knows good and well that they did it.
Instead, she comes up with all these absurd things.
Well, they must have been in the process of fighting with their hands tied behind their backs.
At least 283 corpses found in a mass grave at NASA Hospital in Karn, Eunice.
The UN Human Rights Chief has said he is absolutely horrified.
Who do you think those bodies are?
Probably terrorists, because the ratio of combatant to innocent that Israel has is unprecedented in modern warfare.
We know we've killed about 15,000 terrorists.
There was a terrible battle in those areas, so the chances are...
How do you think these people died?
In gun battles with Israel.
Why do you think some of the bodies were fine with ties around their hands?
Well, because we probably arrested the terrorists.
And then killed them. Well, I don't know if the terrorists fall back.
I wasn't there. But all I can tell you is that this has been a very difficult urban warfare that nobody on earth has experienced this type of warfare, where the terrorists are hiding in tunnels, where they're cowards because they won't face their enemy.
They just leave innocent people up there whilst they hide.
In tunnels that are bigger than the London Underground.
And they come out, they shoot, and it could be that many of them were shot and they were shooting in a battle.
And it could be that there were bombs thrown by them and grenades.
There could be a million different scenarios of why these were found.
But remember, we're in the middle of it.
Just to clarify for me, if you would, how do they fight back with their hands tied behind their backs?
Well, we don't know what they were doing before their towns were hiding behind their backs, do we?
But you arrested them. But if you've managed to cable time, they shouldn't subsequently find them dead, should we?
And maybe, again, we're just conjecturing.
Maybe his friends threw a grenade, and then what happens?
Maybe there was a missile, maybe they threw a rocket, and then what happens?
Again, this is conjecture.
I wasn't there, you weren't there.
We can't know. All I know is that our army has the highest...
It was Amnesty International, and they say this...
Yeah, well, you know, as I said yesterday...
It doesn't take much of a moral discernment to understand that when you capture people, you give them due process, even if you're going to execute them as spies or something like that.
As a matter of fact, I mentioned the great escape.
What happened at the end of the great escape when they captured these people who escaped?
Well, pretty much the same thing.
Eleven of your men are being returned today.
Oh? Who? I do not have that information.
I... I am directed by a higher authority to inform you that...
that fifty of your officers were shot while escaping.
Shot? The...
the personal effects will be returned.
How many of them were wounded?
She has the names of the dead.
How many of the fifty were wounded?
None. The High Authority only directs me to inform you that fifty men were Yeah, we see, don't we? We see what's going on.
Does she really think? I mean, you know, here's, of course, this is, we don't exactly know how the Nazi that was there felt about it.
But in this fictional work, they don't even make a Nazi as bad as that deputy mayor of Jerusalem.
And then you have Netanyahu who reacts immediately, you know, because just like Fauci is science and any criticism of Fauci is anti-science, well, any criticism of Netanyahu is anti-Semitism.
The outrageous decision by the ICC prosecutor, Karim Khan, to seek arrest warrants against the democratically elected leaders of Israel is a moral outrage of historic proportions.
It will cast an everlasting mark of shame on the international court.
Israel is waging a just war against Hamas, a genocidal terrorist organization that perpetrated the worst attack on the Jewish people since the Holocaust.
Mr. Khan creates a twisted and false moral equivalence between the leaders of Israel and the henchmen of Hamas.
This is like creating a moral equivalence after September 11th between President Bush and Osama Bin Laden.
Yeah, I've created that equivalence myself, actually.
You know, Tim Osmond, there is something about him and the U.S. government.
It seems like they're almost in on something.
And, you know, what we saw happening afterwards is the other shoe.
What we saw happening in 2020 is the other shoe to drop from 9-11.
But as part of that global plan to lock us down...
You had Netanyahu on board with Pfizer and the World Economic Forum.
That other shoe dropped from 9-11?
I gave Pfizer the argument that they could benefit From the data that we could produce, and they were convinced, and then we went along and did this.
And in fact, our health system did exactly that.
We have a digitized system for distributing health, 1,400 sites in a very small country of 9 million, and they just work it out.
And again, on the distribution, you know, I take I don't call that much, five times a day.
I heard that you had been on the phone 70 times with the Pfizer CEO. He's talking to Davos Nazis.
Not 70, but 21 times.
But also I speak with Stefan Bansel of Moderna.
I've spoken to the heads of the other companies.
I think you need personal leadership here.
You know, it's like checking on munitions in a war.
Yeah. Yeah.
The jabs were like ammunition in a war.
A war against his own people.
Look, he said that we're fighting a just war.
And as I've said before, if somebody attacks you, even if you provoke it, even if you enable it, even if you get people to look the other way, You're still justified to push back, but you're not justified to continue to attack a defenseless civilian population for months and months and months with massive bombs, with starvation campaigns and all the rest of this stuff.
That is not what a just war is about.
A just war is about stopping the killing.
A just war seeks an end as soon as possible to a war.
A just war would be focused on getting the people who caused this, rather than removing people from a geographical area for your own purposes.
There's nothing at all just about this war.
Nothing. I could have made an argument at the very beginning when they were attacked, but the way this has been conducted is not a just war in any means.
And so Lindsey Graham was very upset about this.
He believes that this could set a precedent.
So we, hopefully, together, will find a way to rest our displeasure with the ICC. Because if they'll do this to Israel, we're next.
This group tried to come after us.
our soldiers. Yeah, you can clap all you want to. They tried to come after our soldiers in Afghanistan, but reason prevailed. So at the end of the day here, what I hope to happen is that we level sanctions against the ICC for this outrage to not only help our friends in Israel, but protect ourselves over time. Mr. Secretary, your statement...
Because we all know we're the bigger Satan, right?
The President's statement was excellent.
Senator Schumer's statement on the floor was excellent about the outrage here.
They have destroyed the notion of complementarity.
They have misled people in the United States about their intention, and they shall and will pay a price.
Well, that's about all I can take of Ms.
Lindsey there. But look, yeah, if we let them come after him for an unjust war, look at all the wars that we've started.
We've got... Coups, assassinations.
I mean, where would this start if we actually started having indictments of people like Lindsey Graham, for example?
Like they indicted Henry Kissinger, and rightfully so.
And they ought to indict Lindsey Graham.
This guy has not seen a war anywhere that he doesn't want to be involved in.
And while we're speaking of literal Nazis, we have Zelensky, Who is now ruling under martial law, just as we were ruled under martial law by our two beloved presidential candidates, Donald Trump and Joe Biden.
He has now suspended elections until after the war.
Which I guess, you know, we should say, Hans, are we the bad guys here?
Perhaps we are. We'll be right back, and we're going to talk when we come back.
We'll talk about some of the climate issues.
We'll be right back. We're
So, we're going to go ahead and get started. So, let's do this.
So, we're going to go ahead and get started. So, let's do this.
So, we're going to go ahead and get started.
Making Sense.
Common again. You're listening to The David Knight Show.
Well, do you remember when Ross Perot was running for president, he was talking about the North American Free Trade Agreement, a treaty, and he said, they're going to have this giant sucking sound.
Sucking the life out of our economy.
And he was right about that. Absolutely right about it.
The giant sucking sound was not stuff being sucked into Mexico.
For the most part, however, you know, it really was going into China.
Well, we now have a giant sucking sound based on climate lies, based on the other treaty, the Paris Climate Accord that is there.
They passed these treaties without getting them signed.
It is a giant sucking sound because now they've got the world's largest vacuum.
It is there to suck carbon dioxide out of the air, and it just opened.
And of course, when you look at the headline from CNN, it doesn't say carbon dioxide.
That confuses these people.
They don't know the difference, and I've seen them get these things mixed up over and over again between carbon dioxide and Which we exhale, and all living animals do, and the plants take it in.
They don't know the difference between carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide, which is what kills you if you leave your engine running with the garage door down.
But the world's largest plant, designed to suck planet heating pollution out of the atmosphere like a giant vacuum, began operating in Iceland last week.
Yeah, keep telling yourself that climate lie.
It's called Mammoth.
It is the second commercial.
Direct air capture plant opened by a Swiss company called Climeworks, as in climate.
And it is 10 times bigger than its predecessor, which started running in 2022.
They are terraforming the planet.
They are going to try to block out the sunlight that the plants need.
They're going to try to suck out the carbon dioxide, the small amount that's there, that the plants need.
They want to starve us.
It isn't just that they don't want us having meat and dairy.
They don't want us having plants either.
Direct air capture is a technology designed to suck in air, strip out the carbon using chemicals.
The carbon can then be injected deep beneath the ground if you pay off enough politicians and construct...
Green boondoggles.
Actually, somebody called it a green doggle.
I think that's a good idea. Yeah, these green doggles.
Just like you have with the North and South Dakota governors, Kristi Noem and Doug Burgum, pals of Trump.
Of course, Kristi Noem shot her chances of being VP in the head as she killed that dog and bragged about it.
But he is still in the running, Bergam is, and Trump has had them at Mar-a-Lago, along with the CEO of a company that wants to have this pipeline run across the country, suck the carbon dioxide out of these industrial processes and out of the air and stick it into the ground there in North and South Dakota, and they will take anybody's property that gets in their way.
So if you think that Trump...
He's on the side of energy.
First of all, you weren't paying attention the first four years because he didn't do anything to shut down the basis of all these lies and actions, and that is the Paris Climate Accord.
But he's also pals with these Republican governors.
It's a uniparty, folks.
It's a uniparty.
Keep telling yourself that there's a difference at the federal level.
If you do that, you're deranged.
Absolutely deranged.
The whole operation will be powered by Iceland's abundant, clean geothermal energy.
Is it clean? Are volcanoes clean?
You know, volcanoes spew way more particulates into the atmosphere than we do.
They can cause many ice ages that last for several years.
It happened with Krakatoa, east of Java.
They had a mini ice age after that eruption there.
But, oh, the geothermal stuff, that's really clean, is it?
Of course, there's nothing that you can do about it, whether you like it or not.
Because there's really nothing that you can do about climate, whether you like it or not, either.
The volcanoes are not under your control.
Guess what? Neither is the sun.
Neither are the solar cycles that happen.
You can no more predict what the solar cycles are going to be than you can predict when a volcano is going to erupt.
You'll get some early warning from it.
But you can't predict how it's going to affect the climate, when it's going to change.
They're going to pull out 36,000 tons of carbon a year, equivalent to taking around 7,800 gas-powered cars off the road for a year.
Or, you know, telling Taylor Swift she can't travel, or Bill Gates, or some of these other people.
Oh, that's great. Why don't you just ground one or two of these elite billionaires and tell them that they can't travel, and then you won't have to build this whole thing.
But this is another scheme for some people to make money.
Climbworks did not give an exact cost for each of the tons of carbon that they remove.
Again, CO2 is what they're talking about.
They're not talking about carbon. But they said that it was closer to 1,000 a ton than 100 a ton.
100 a ton is what is widely seen as something that will make it affordable and viable.
So, like all of this green stuff, it's not affordable.
It's not viable.
It is not sustainable.
It's not rational.
It makes no sense.
But nevertheless, you have a guy who has become a professor of carbon capture.
It's like the Wizard of Oz.
E pluribus unum, I hereby bestow upon you the title of Professor of Carbon Capture.
Garsh. Sun of the square of the two sides equals the square of the hypotenuse.
No, actually, he got it wrong. I don't know exactly what he said about the Pythagorean Theorem, but yeah, this guy probably doesn't know the Pythagorean Theorem any more than the scarecrow of Wizard of Oz knows what it is.
So, there's been a new study that has found something groundbreaking.
They have found that if you got more fuel in the forest, that you'll have the forest burn more.
So, if you neglect taking out the dead wood and the fallen wood, you're leaving fuel on the ground and you'll have bigger forest fires.
You know, it's interesting. My uncle, who is head of the forestry department at the University of Missouri-Columbia, told me that over 40 years ago.
It might have been 50 years ago now.
He said, they're changing this.
He said, they're not doing stewardship anymore.
This is radical environmentalism where they worship nature.
Oh, don't touch nature.
We're not going to take care of the forests.
And he says, it's going to burn.
And I saw it happen in Bastrop, where we lived.
I saw it happen in Oregon.
Travis and I interviewed a logger.
Was it Todd or Tad?
I can't remember. Tad, okay.
Who had his private forest that he had been, you know, private land.
He had wood. He had been gradually accumulating that for his retirement.
And the neglect of the government on their public lands caused a massive forest fire that spilled onto and burned his land.
So here's the study.
Enhanced future vegetation growth with elevated carbon dioxide concentrations could increase fire activity.
Wow. Well, here's some reasons that I don't believe in climate change.
This was a good article.
I liked this from the Daily Skeptic.
And we'll put the background music here of Hitchcock.
This is all about the climate change MacGuffin.
That's right. And there we are.
Season 54 of the Climate Change Live.
There's Alfred Hitchcock there and the suicidal noose that the politicians want to put around each of our necks.
Well, he says, number one, looking back through history, there have always been doomsday prophets.
Folks who say the world is coming to an end, are these modern activists, not just the current version of this?
Number two, I look at some of the facts.
CO2 is only 0.04% of the atmosphere, and humans are responsible for only 3% of that.
And again, as I point out, it's like 2.5 times, you know, ten thousandths of a percent, if you multiply those out.
He said Britain is responsible for only 1% of the world's CO2 output.
And I think, really?
And you're going to take everything from us because we are 1% of the world's CO2 output, which is 3% of the 0.4%?
I looked it up, you know, in China, which I'm not worried about at all.
China produces what they say is 27% of the CO2 and there's no restrictions on them.
India puts out 10% and there's no restrictions on them.
Look at 37% of the CO2 emissions are being put out by just two countries who have absolutely no CO2 restrictions.
Are they serious about this?
Or is this an economic attack?
Number three, I've listened to some top scientists who say CO2 doesn't drive global warming.
That it's actually a good thing.
It's actually a vital thing, he said.
Number four, I note that most of the loudest climate change activists are socialists on the left.
Are they just trying to use this to push their dreams of a de-industrialized socialist utopia?
Well, yes, that's the idea.
That's the MacGuffin, folks.
I also note the crossover between green activists and BLM ones and gender ones and pro-Hamas ones, because the common thread is communism, Marxism, folks.
He says, as an amateur psychologist, number five, I know that humans are susceptible to manias.
And we saw just the last few years how extremely malleable and easily fool the population is.
With the pandemic, MacGuffin.
I've looked, number six, at the implications of net zero.
It's incredibly expensive. It'll vastly reduce living standards and, of course, life expectancy, I would add.
We'll have shorter, more difficult lives if these depopulationists get their way.
Number seven, net zero will also lead to significant diminishment of personal freedom.
It even threatens democracy.
As people are told, they must do certain things, they must not do other things, and they may even be restricted about speaking out about these things.
Oh, imagine that. Yeah, we've seen it.
Don't travel, don't eat this, don't eat that.
Number eight, what will be the worst thing that will happen?
If the doomsayers are correct, a rise in temperature?
Well, that begs the question, what is the ideal temperature?
Do you know? For how long do we need to maintain that ideal temperature?
Or how long do we have to be worried about the temperature rising?
He says, I'm suspicious of utopias.
Communists are always looking for utopias.
9. If one consequence of climate change is rising sea levels, wouldn't it be better to spend some money building more sea defenses to protect our land like the Dutch did?
Yeah. Why are we killing ourselves and our society, our food production, our energy production?
If you're really worried about it, Build some dykes along the coast.
But instead, what we see is Obama and his ilk actually buying expensive places to live on the coast that they and their climate alarmists say are going to be underwater.
Well, he finishes up by saying, He likes the sun.
He lives in England.
What was it? Lawrence of Arabia, I think.
The guy said, you're here because Englishmen like desolate places.
They like hot places or whatever.
He says, I prefer being warm to being cold because he's been cold for so long.
Well, I grew up in Tampa, so I prefer being cool to warm.
Just the opposite way.
But look, it's all about the MacGuffin.
It's not about me. And it's not about what you want.
It's about what people like Clark Schwab and his ilk want.
And it is, I guess we could say, that the MacGuffin, as Alfred Hitchcock explained to us, is really about murder.
It's really what it's about.
It's about mass murder.
It's called depopulation.
Well, we have our guest who is ready.
We're going to go to him. And I want to say to Guard Goldsmith on Rockfin, he says, David, I'm so glad you played that Sky News clip.
I caught that over the weekend inside a larger video that I'd watched, and I wanted to find it.
Again, that's the one where they shot people in the back of the head.
But I'm sure that they were actually...
You know, firing rockets and throwing grenades with their hands tied behind their back.
That's a ridiculous thing.
He says, I wanted to find it again, but I've absorbed so many videos this week.
I spent hours in my history scanning the vids again and couldn't find it.
The criminal IDF activity backed by U.S. politicians, fatuous politicians, is stunning.
And that clip is the key.
I think it really is. I mean, you look at that, and we're talking about political actions.
We're talking about war. It's difficult to find out what's going on with war with any certainty.
But we can be certain about a few things that are there.
We're going to take a break, and when we come back, we're going to be joined by our guest, who is going to be talking about artificial intelligence.
How do we put this genie back in the bottle, or how do we protect ourselves?
I think it's very important we start thinking about this.
We have to expose artificial intelligence for what it is.
We have to expose the dangers of it.
As I've said many times, I don't believe the danger is some kind of a terminator thing.
I believe that it's a different kind of danger.
I think it's a danger of surveillance states and things like that.
But we're going to talk about that in more depth.
With somebody who has been studying this for quite some time, we'll talk about the monopolistic aspects of it, because he's coming from a libertarian perspective as well.
And how do we protect ourselves from this surveillance state, which I think is the key aspect of this artificial intelligence.
We'll be right back.
Music The common man.
They created common core and dumbed down our children.
They created common past to track and control us.
Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing.
And the communist future.
They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary.
But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God.
That is what we have in common.
That is what they want to take away.
Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation.
They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us.
It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide.
Please share the information and links you'll find at TheDavidKnightShow.com Thank you for listening.
Thank you for sharing.
If you can't support us financially, please keep us in your prayers.
TheDavidKnightShow.com Thank you.
you you Joining us now is Andrew Riddle.
He is a CEO of Liberation Technology Services, a company at the forefront of cloud hosting industry.
And he's involved in cybersecurity.
And he has contacted me.
He wanted to talk about artificial intelligence and the threats to us.
And they are tremendous threats to us.
Thank you for joining us, Andrew.
Thank you so much for having me.
I'm really looking forward to the conversation.
I am, too. And I've had people on many times talk about artificial intelligence.
I had a guy who was with a military-industrial complex, and they were talking about the different modeling things that they were doing.
And it was very, very interesting.
he even had concerns about, even though he felt that it was necessary in this arms race against China to have all this stuff.
He says, well, I don't know how we actually, once we turn over control, and it's inevitable we're gonna turn control over in a war scenario. How do we stop it? How do we get control back?
He says, we don't know yet. You know, they're talking about this stuff. And the question is, how do we get control back from these things?
As we start here, let me get your reaction to what I played earlier today.
I'm sure that you've maybe seen the announcement about Copilot from Microsoft, that they're going to put artificial intelligence on your laptop.
It's going to constantly be taking screenshots of what you're doing and making assessments about what you want, you know, of course, to be your friend and your servant, and it will never violate your privacy.
What do you think about that?
Do you think anybody wants this?
Do you think anybody believes those promises?
Well, I think the scary fact of the matter is it's already happening.
Microsoft is just, you know, openly acknowledging the fact that they're doing this, right?
We see this with TikTok.
We see this with Google.
We see this with all these other companies that have integrated the AI and other, you know, data collection methods.
You know, TikTok, a little known fact, They access every single app on your device.
And so they're also looking at your banking apps, your financial apps, your health apps, and all these other things.
But I think it is concerning whether they're publicly acknowledging it.
Like Microsoft or, you know, covertly doing it.
I think that it is very concerning because with that sheer amount of data, you know, the question lies, what will they be able to do with that, right?
It's not just to make suggestions.
You know, will they be able to then start subliminally targeting us with, you know, the obvious things like products and services, but, you know, will they be able to also start manipulating our behaviors, our actions throughout the day because they know how in a subconscious level we react to certain triggers and environments, you know, okay, they want everyone to perform
action A, you know, they know if they hit us with the right messaging or visuals or audio or audible, you know, methods, you know, we'll react.
Yeah, they call it nudging.
You know, they know how to give you subtle pushes in different ways.
They call it a nudge. And, you know, the whole artificial intelligence thing is based on scraping data from all over the Internet.
So we know they're doing that. We know that everything you should put out there on social media is available to any government agency to scrape or any company can scrape it there.
So that part of it is not new.
I guess when I looked at the Microsoft Copilot, I thought, oh, great, now I get my own Personal little Stasi spy.
Before there was a large engagement from the human element of a platform that would have to say, okay, well, this either violates terms of service or, hey, we want to push this narrative and things like that,
but we're essentially now handing all of the data and all of the control over to this And, you know, as you were saying just before the break, you know, it isn't the Terminator AI that we all think of, but it is possible.
You think ChatGBT launched less than a year ago and the developments that we've seen in the space since then are...
You know, what will this environment look like in 12, 24, 36 months?
I think that's where we need to proactively start thinking and start planning because, yeah, we might not be able to put the genie back in the bottle once it's activated, especially if you give it a gun.
Yeah. Which they're doing.
They're telling him to fly planes and drop bombs and here's a gun.
You know, and speaking of that, there was an excellent novel that was written about 12 or 13 years ago by Daniel Suarez called Kill Decision.
And it was about using AI and drones and how disruptive and revolutionary that was going to be to the military-industrial complex.
And my son just went back who had told me about that years ago and we listened to it years ago.
And he went back and listened to it again.
He said, you know, in that novel...
What kicks it off is the AI's ability to look at a picture and to make assessments about what is in that picture, just as we saw demonstrated last week in the OpenAI chat 4.0, where everybody's focusing on the voice of Scarlett Johansson.
But it really is concerning, even though we know that it is a demo and there may be some rigged aspects of it.
It truly was pretty amazing what that was able to do.
And as you point out, there have been massive leaps in what is the perceived capability of these systems.
Yeah, you know, and we've already seen that technology really get involved in this election already.
You know, in New Hampshire, there was the Joe Biden deepfake, where they were able to, you know, one of the Democratic challengers was able to persuade voters not to go out and vote or to alter their vote, because they got a phone call from Joe Biden.
Right.
And that's where it becomes so concerning, because there is very, there's next to no oversight in this space, aside from, you know, these technology companies saying, oh, well, we'll do better.
But there's really no oversight in steps put in place ahead of the election to protect us against these types of threats.
And, you know, it's one of those things, as we've seen in 2022 and 2020, you know, trying to fix something after the fact, the courts, the public opinions, you know, they're not going to deal with that.
So, you know, there's a chance that we could see a deepfake give out false information, have a impact in the election, and everyone will just kind of throw their hands up and say, well, we'll try not to let this happen again.
But the outcome of the election is still decided.
And I think it's important, you know, we've seen lies, manipulation, propaganda has always been there as part of an election.
I think what is different about this, and I've mentioned this from the very beginning with artificial intelligence, even when we had the chatbots that were hallucinating with stuff.
Immediately, even though they were coming up with these wild scenarios, people started backfilling and saying, well, maybe this thing is really aware, you know, and anthropomorphizing it and giving it credibility instead of looking at this and saying, this is a bunch of crap.
My first thing when I interacted with it, I started talking to it about climate change or about the Pfizer shot or something like that.
Of course, it kind of just shut me down.
And so I was like, okay, I get this.
It's just another control mechanism.
But most people, I think the real danger...
is the confidence that people put in this.
You know, I was trained as an engineer, and we were always told from the very beginning, garbage in, garbage out.
Don't trust this just because you've got a computer printout.
Don't trust it just because it's a model from somebody.
Because you can make the computer say anything that you want.
It's not necessarily right.
And people shut down that critical thought, and I think that's one of the most deceptive And dangerous things about artificial intelligence.
I think that's why it's important to talk about it.
But let me ask you, you know, you mentioned earlier about putting the genie back in the bottle.
What can we do and what can we do proactively?
Because this stuff is rapidly evolving and people are looking at it in terms of we typically react after the fact instead of saying, well, I know where this is going, so let's put in some safeguards about this.
Is there anything that we can or should be doing in your opinion?
So I think that we, from a market perspective, can really dictate the direction that AI goes.
You know, if products are being pushed, you know, without your consent, without the ability to opt out, then my recommendation is vote with your dollars and don't support those platforms, right?
The AI that we see today is just a tool.
And so it is as good or as bad as those wielding it.
And so at the end of the day, if Google is saying, hey, you're going to accept Gemini, Gemini is everywhere, same with Copilot, then use a different browser, one that is not forcing an AI on you.
And if we see hundreds of millions of Americans start to Change their behaviors.
Well, then those companies will start to reassess the implementation and how they're looking at AI, not as something that necessarily has to be pushed on every single person, but something that individuals have the ability to opt into And to utilize, right? You know, it's one thing if you log in to chat GBT and type in prompts and get responses.
That is a often action.
But to say, you know, we're going to put an AI into the search engine and it's going to track everything that you do, filter everything that you see, present the narrative in the stories that we want you to see, then we can't support that.
You know, I think oftentimes people think about making an impact in this nation as something they only do every two years in an election.
But we have the ability to vote with our wallets and vote with our feet every single day.
And if we actually get intentional about that, you know, this is still very much a capitalistic society.
And those companies will come to a stark reality very, very quickly.
I agree. I really endorse that, what you just said.
And we need to give them the Bud Light treatment, you know, and boycott them.
And, you know, so often we look at things and say, well, you know, I know they're going to be using this to mine data.
I know they're going to use it for anticipatory intelligence and geospatial intelligence and all these other things as part of the surveillance state.
Can we get the politicians to put in some legislation that's going to block all that?
That isn't going to happen, most likely.
Yeah. They haven't even addressed Section 230 in reevaluating the broad protections against lawsuits with many of these tech companies.
Plus, you look at it, Google, AWS, and some of the other big players, those are the biggest donors in elections almost year after year.
So I think...
What I've come to the realization, the Silicon Valley companies are going to do everything that they can to keep the Democrats in power.
That's because they know that there's at least a chance, especially under Trump, that Republicans will take up this issue and pass legislation to balance out the playing field.
They're going to fight like hell to keep their open playground for as long as possible.
I think they play that game on both sides, though.
I mean, we just saw what Speaker Johns, I call him Machiavellian Mike, what he just did about FISA. You know, if we think they're going to stop anything, certainly at the federal level, people just need to look at, you know, that April 20th, where that 420, what was he smoking?
Where he... I think he was smoking rolled-up 100s that he got from Silicon Valley and the intelligence community and the military-industrial complex for their wars, for the Pfizer expansion, because he extended it and he expanded it.
And so these people are not...
Open to shutting this down.
I mean, he got $20 million in his first full quarter as speaker.
And so, you're right.
They're giving them money.
And I think the most effective thing that we can do, I think what is important for grassroots change, is to expose artificial intelligence for what it is.
It's artificial. It's fake, as I've been talking about this.
It's biased. Exactly.
It's got bias built into it.
It's got bias built into it. Yeah.
And we've seen the kind of toxic bias in culture via the Twitter files, right?
If it is that bad at Twitter at the time, who's to say it's not as bad or worse at Google or AWS and Microsoft?
You know, you have to look at that and understand that bias.
And I think that, you know, that's why we see the onslaught of attacks from every single direction against Donald Trump, because at the end of the day, you know, they realize Donald Trump is one of those few politicians that is harder to manipulate, right? You know, you do have the career politicians like Johnson, like McCarthy, you know, where they're pretty predictable, right?
But then you throw some of these other elected officials in and there's more of a chance, not saying they will 100%, but there's a higher chance that they will take up the issues with Section 230.
And that's what we have to hope for and to also push on our elected officials to do.
Yeah, I think that is, I would agree with you, that Trump is unpredictable.
I don't necessarily expect him to keep any of his promises.
You got betterment in there, too.
And, you know, we are seeing an age of, you know, elected, some elected, not necessarily following the standard playbook.
I was actually surprised.
Pure entertainment. I agree.
You know, Fetterman, I was absolutely surprised.
You know, the Turks and Caicos, where they've now arrested five Americans because they found a bullet in their suitcase, not a gun, but a bullet, and they're going to give them a mandatory minimum of 12 years.
They had a congressional delegation go down, and Fetterman was one of them.
I thought, what is going on? I mean, did he get his mind back?
What is happening with this guy?
He seems to have completely changed for the better in many different ways.
I don't know. I haven't seen everything that he's done.
I'm not endorsing Fetterman.
But I was surprised he did the right thing.
And look, I want to give people credit whenever they do the right thing, wherever they are.
But I agree with you.
I think the key thing...
is that we have to get people to understand some basic values.
They have to be as opposed to the surveillance state, as much as they are to, you know, grooming of kids with this transgender thing, you know, if we want to get them to reject this stuff like they rejected Bud Light. We have to have them as much in favor of privacy and free speech as they are in favor of parental rights and things
The problem is the reason people are not pushing back against it, A, they don't understand the danger of it.
B, they don't understand how deceptive it is.
And C, they don't really embrace the values of privacy.
They're not opposed to the surveillance state as much as they need to be.
They don't understand the dangers of that.
I think that's one of the key things.
And I agree with you.
I think we're not going to be able to get the federal government to do anything.
But we can have a tremendous amount of power if we can muster public opinion to support the good things and to oppose the bad things and just to be revulsed by this as much as we are by Dylan Mulvaney.
We should be revulsed.
Yeah, well, I think that it's a very interesting situation.
That's exactly why we founded Liberation to protect people's data, to restore their right to privacy, to no longer collect, monitor, and monetize their information and online habits.
But, you know, you look at this and I think that there is a real wave because we have to think about it in a larger scope.
The left has been activated and mobilized, you know, pushing these ideologies for over 20 plus years, you know, with Soros, Arabella, and all of these other institutions.
You know, conservatives, we've actually been reengaged for only about three and a half, four years at this point.
And so, you know, we are over a decade behind, but can quickly make up the ground. And, you know, for the average everyday American, you know, most of these issues don't impact us in our homes, right? But we do see that it is, in my opinion, kind of causing a degrading societal impact and moving us away from the founding principles of this nation.
And so it might not impact you every single day, but that does not mean you should sit on the sidelines. Like, let's be honest, you look at the kids at Columbia and NYU, they probably couldn't even point out Gaza on a map if they tried.
But they have this tendency of mobilization that they are being fed, I think, garbage information.
But that is still causing them to be mobilized and getting out.
And exercising their First Amendment rights to a degree and trying to impact political change.
And so on the Christian and conservative side, the libertarian side, we have to realize that...
We can't sit idly by and think that Donald Trump is going to save us or the Republican Party is going to save us.
No, it's going to take every single one of us to be activated 15 minutes a day, whether it's through talking to your neighbors or spending your dollars with aligned companies.
I agree. And that's how we actually save this nation.
Yeah. It's a small thing, and it's going to be from the bottom up.
You know, it's not going to be from the top down, and it's going to be being an awareness that the little things that you do, as you point out, talking to your neighbor, getting them disavowed from this almost superstitious awe of what artificial intelligence is.
I've got an email question that was sent to us.
It says, do you think that, this is from John, he said, do you think the AI is as good as it seems?
And I've talked about that a little bit.
You know, what is your assessment of this as somebody who's in cybersecurity?
Tell us, you know, exactly what...
I read an article yesterday about a guy who said, I try to explain this to people, and he said, the way I look at it, he said, it's like a matrix.
He said, it doesn't even understand a question.
You know, it doesn't know that it's getting a question.
It just looks at those words and it kind of processes that in a language model.
And then it compares that to other matrices and tries to come up with the best fit.
And that's how it does it from his explanation.
And so it's kind of a different way of programming than most of us are thinking about, like some kind of...
It's a procedural if-then statement.
It's comparing these different massive amounts of data that it's gotten.
It's comparing that to what you're asking it to come up with a question.
But it's not really thinking.
It's not really understanding.
It's just kind of, you know, comparing this stuff at a very, very fast rate.
Is that, in your understanding, is that correct or am I wrong?
Is there a better way to look at this?
How would you describe that?
Yeah, I think that's a pretty fair way to describe it.
It's basically taking a massive amount of data and looking for similar answers that have been rated highly by previous users.
And so that's how it's...
Taking information from past experiences and past responses and then saying, okay, well, based on this, it's a 99% match to a previous question.
That person liked it, so I'm going to give that to you.
That's a very rudimentary way of thinking it.
The scale is massive, but you also have to remember, AI is really in its infancy still.
You know, and you think about everything that it can do today, you know, in some ways, I guess, what your listener was asking, I would ask them, in what regards, right?
You know, if it's Google Gemini's ability to generate an image off of a prompt, I would say it's an F, because I'm not aware of a black pope.
Ever being, you know, in charge of the church or, you know, an African-American female being a founding father.
So, you know, I give them an F, but, you know, for AI's ability to maybe identify underlying health risks in individuals or being able to help synthesize a large amount of data into a simple synopsis, I think that it is a great tool.
And I think that you have to look at it not just as this one giant kind of instance, but there are different use cases, and I think ultimately the folks that are behind it and the ways that it's being implemented, because it is just a tool, really help answer that question.
I agree. Yeah, when you talk about something like, you know, the racial misappropriation, I guess we call it, of Gemini, that was a wonderful thing for people to see, because when you're talking about something that is political, something where they can put in a bias, they put it in. And people need to be able to see that, and just one of those pictures is worth a thousand words.
But they did thousands of pictures of that kind of nonsense.
And I think people, that's, I think, one of the most effective ways to show how they can build bias into this.
Now, when you're talking about something like building a circuit or doing some programming or something like that, they're not trying to build a bias into it yet.
And so for those types of things, it could be very, very useful.
And if they didn't put that hand-picked bias into some of this other stuff, it might be a lot more useful for those other things.
But people, it's a warning to people that, be careful, use this at your own risk, because especially when it comes into anything that is political, they are going to be inserting those biases.
They pay people a lot of money to insert those biases and to, you know, I guess, weight a different set of answers, a different...
Yeah, and I'll get to that in a second, but I think I just thought of one great example in how we use AI to benefit the individual, but if they elect to take advantage of it, we have a product called Liberation Campaign, and it's an alternative product.
To MailChimp and Constant Contact for those that don't want to fight their email marketing platform to land in the inbox.
And so we have two different tools, one that looks at a subject line and one that looks at the actual content of your email and it will say, hey, we know what Gmail is flagging, what their AI is flagging as spam and putting down into the undelivered space or Yahoo and all those kind of things.
And it says, hey, here's your score, right?
Here's how you can improve it to get around Google and Yahoo's and Microsoft's spam filters.
And so that, I think, is a great example.
And it's one of those things.
It's unbiased. Here's the data.
You can use it. You cannot use it.
I've heard from so many people, though, that are like, I'm hearing back from folks that I haven't heard from in over a decade or in, you know, a year, five years.
And so it's amazing that it's reaching their inbox and they're getting, you know, 40, 50, 60% open rates and all that.
And they're like, I had no idea that a tool like this existed.
But, you know, going back to what you were just saying.
It's kind of like electronic measures and then countermeasures and then countermeasures.
They're going to be a constant back and forth to try to stay one step ahead of their censoring algorithms.
But that's really good. I like the fact that you're doing that because we know that they try to shut down our reach in so many different places and in so many different ways.
Yeah, we saw it with the RNC in 2022's election where their deliverability rates fell to about 30%.
That means 70% of the folks that have signed up to receive their emails aren't getting any sort of information from them.
I was speaking with another Christian group, and they were just put on notice and paused.
They were sending 10 million emails a month.
Almost daily. And they were put on notice.
They weren't given a reason.
They were just kind of told terms and conditions.
And it went into a long review process.
And you have to look at that and really start to say, okay, well, if these technology companies have a bias and they're using AI, which is able to detect, flag, and suspend without any sort of human intervention, how can that impact Oh,
yeah.
Right. And you start to think about it.
There's over 2 billion people that visit that homepage every single day.
Right. You know, if they start saying, well, if you're conservative because we have access to your voting and political registrations, um, You know, we're going to make it really hard for you to find your voting precinct.
But if you're a Democrat, every time you log on to our homepage, we're going to say, you haven't voted.
Go vote. Go vote. Go vote.
Find your location. It's right here.
Why aren't you doing this?
Hey, pop-up reminder. You're driving by your polling location.
You need to go and do this right now.
And, you know, they can do that.
We just had a guy who got a jail sentence because he did it as a joke.
Oh, if you're a Democrat, make sure that you vote on Wednesday or whatever.
And there was a black woman, I guess, no problem because of Jim and I. There's a black woman who did the same joke in the opposite direction.
If you're a Republican, don't forget to vote on Wednesday or whatever.
They sent him to jail. They gave her a pass.
You mentioned MailChimp.
And we started our experience with MailChimp with this show.
Was, I know I'm on the list, we started to put our, we got an account, we set the thing up, we started loading in our contact list, and they shut us down even before we were able to do our first email.
They shut us down. It's absolutely amazing the amount of censorship that is out there, the amount of profiling and information that is out there already.
But yeah, we can't even use it to get started.
Yeah, and then Google and Yahoo implemented new protocols as of February that are going to make it just easier and easier for their AIs to flag people and shut them down.
You know, the idea that a New York Post article on Hunter Biden could get out in this upcoming election, you know, no one's going to even see it.
It won't even reach the Internet or, you know, the conservative viewers.
You know, they're going to shut it down with the AI because they have a near 100% success rate if they decide to do something like that.
And so you think about it back to the 2020 election, it was something like 14% of surveyed Democrats said that if they would have known about that story and about the allegations, they would have never voted for Joe Biden.
And so you look at it right there, that one action, that one suppression of valid information, you know, even though they labeled it misinformation, You know, that outcome was decided by Google and Twitter and those folks because those Democrats would not have voted, Joe Biden would not have won, and we would, I think, be in a very different position, you know, today.
Yeah. Oh, absolutely. Yeah, your company is going to really be vital, I think, in terms of getting around this, because, you know, we've had this competition, and in the free market, what people say on social media was just too damaging for their professional journalists and everything.
That's why they began the massive censorship, the shadow banning, the canceling, and all the rest of the stuff that we saw on social media.
Yeah, and you know, when you think about social media, like, I agree.
There's There shouldn't be blatant misinformation, right?
Saying go vote on Wednesday when your election day is on Tuesday.
That's not information we need out on the internet.
Granted, if someone does that, everyone should be treated equally.
There should be a fair level of judgment on that.
But at the same time, a lot of these technology companies are suppressing valid Alternative information, you know, the other side of the coin kind of concept where, you know, you saw during COVID, you know, there were Harvard and Stanford rated doctors that were saying or that were getting completely censored, you know, and they were putting out peer reviewed data and they were just like, no, that's misinformation.
No, that's just an alternative view and an alternative opinion, and that's the whole concept that our founding fathers laid out when they wrote the First Amendment.
The ability for each and every one of us to hear information and make our own informed decisions, right?
They're removing that ability for us to think critically, I believe.
Yeah. They don't want any debate.
And they haven't wanted any debate on climate stuff.
And we saw the same thing happen again with COVID. So, you know, when we look at this...
The interesting thing about all this is the fact that they have a monopoly and that they've been granted this de facto monopoly, but in many ways it's explicit, isn't it?
And now, as I mentioned earlier, we've got Sam Altman and a lot of these companies because they do so much data scraping.
They use these massive GPUs.
That's why this pattern matching has got to be super fast.
Tremendous power requirements.
You've now got these big data companies that are creating their own power plants, their own nuclear power plants, because they understand that our government is trying to shut down power generation.
But they're going to be essentially allowed to have, I think, a monopoly on power, electrical power, not just political power, and not just a monopoly on speaking.
They're actually going to have a monopoly now, I think, on electrical power generation if they continue to shut down all of our different power stations.
Yeah, and it's actually a global issue.
You know, in 2021, we saw it.
Singapore shut down.
Ireland shut down.
2022, I believe, South Africa shut down.
You know, there are parts of the United States where they're just saying you can't build any more data centers because they are unable, you know, the local municipalities, the power companies, they're not able to build.
Power plants fast enough.
Right now, they only account for about 3% to 5% of power consumption here in the United States.
But the way that they're starting to build these facilities with AI in mind and just larger and larger and more ever-consuming kind of concepts, you know, yeah.
We're running out of power availability in the grid for new data centers.
And so, yeah, Microsoft is talking about building miniature nuclear reactors next to their data centers.
We have some really interesting things that we'll have to come back on and share when it's officially public, but we're kind of going the opposite way.
We're saying we can actually do this more efficiently, build and operate data centers, and it's by just looking at it through a slightly different lens.
And instead of us having to build giant nuclear reactors, we can actually operate unintentionally a more green operation because we just strip out all the wasteful components of a data center.
Yeah, it's just a brute force aspect of it.
And of course, one of the ways they want to sell CVDC... Is to say, well, we're going to use less power than the crypto stuff.
Venezuela is concerned because with their small grid that they've got there, even though they jumped on the cryptocurrency thing in 2020, they just put out a thing saying, we're banning crypto mining because it uses too much power.
So some of these things are viewed by the regime as bad because it's a competition to their CBDC. Do not use the power for cryptocurrency.
But yes, if you want to use it to spy on people...
If the NSA wants to keep a dossier on everybody and store everything that everybody's had and do it in the desert, that's fine.
They can use as much power and water as they want.
And if these crypto companies want to do it, we'll allow them to build whatever kind of power supply plant they want, and we'll give them those kinds of powers, and we won't second-guess their power generation plan.
I mean, can you imagine the kind of permitting that anybody else would have to go through?
Yeah. But I think they're going to sweep all that stuff away for Sam Altman and their friends and this crony capitalist society, I think.
Yeah, and, you know, it's just we see the space doubling almost every two and a half years, which blows past, you know, traditional economic models, which say it should double every five years.
And so, you know, we are in this kind of interesting paradox.
But at the same time, There has to be a demand for all of that compute and all of that information that is being generated by these data centers.
And so it's simply a matter of fact.
If you don't like what's going on, stop giving them your money.
It's pretty simple.
they can't build massive data centers if the population is starting to come back and saying, well, we don't want your AI in every single aspect of our lives, so we're going to go and do business elsewhere. Well, then the demand drops off, and then the financing drops off, and then they stop building these data centers. You saw Amazon actually halt many of their projects over the course of the last two years because they saw that decrease in demand.
Mm-hmm.
And I think it's encouraging for us to look at the amount of impact that we can have.
When you look at the agenda to replace all internal combustion engines and to ban them, right?
And we're going to make everybody drive an EV, even though they don't have enough power to drive everything, right?
I've always said that to people.
It's like, fine, I don't care what you drive.
the government cares what you drive, and even if you get an EV, they're going to cut down the power grid, so you won't be able to drive it, and they'll have you use it as a battery to back them up, that type of thing. But as we look at that, people are saying, well, you know, I've got issues with the range, I've got issues with the expense, I can't really afford the expense of this. People were just not buying them for whatever reason, and so the marketplace has really, in this one area, that they have pushed so hard, that they have subsidized trillions
of dollars, and they have wanted since I was in high school, and they had the first Earth Day, they want to get rid of the And they've pushed this agenda so much, and yet people have said, no, we're not going to go any further.
And the companies that were on board with all that...
Because they just want to make money.
They want to have the favor of the government.
And so they were all on board with that.
They were realizing that, hey, first of all, they're losing money in unbelievable amounts.
And it will be the end of the road for Ford and the rest of these Mercedes and the rest of these car companies if they decide that they really want to compete on this EV with China.
Because China has been dealt all the cards in terms of cheap energy, in terms of minerals that they have, in terms of cheap labor.
But you also still have, you know, buildings falling over, sitting vacant in China.
Just because China is doing it does not mean it's done well or done with a purpose, right?
At the end of the day, what you're describing is capitalism 101.
You know, I do still believe, though, you know...
The diversification of your power generation and everything like that, if you want to slap a little turbine on your house, great.
If you want to put a solar panel on top of your house, great.
I think it needs to be made available for the consumer to decide in free will.
I don't think some of the aspects of green agenda are necessarily a bad thing, but I think when it's mandated, that's where it completely steps over the line.
That's when it really infringes not only on our liberties, but the concept of capitalism as a whole.
Diversification is never a bad thing.
Having electric cars for those that it suits them, great.
That is their decision.
If they just drive five miles up the road every single day and they're just putting it around, great.
An EV is a great option for them.
You know, it makes more oil available for my vehicle, right?
And more gasoline. So, you know, I think that diversification is not a bad thing.
I don't think that, you know, on many of these issues, there has to be a hard left or a hard right.
You know, I think that, you know, the capitalistic model will always reign true.
Whether it's in technology or automobiles and everything else.
And so, you know, that's what we're really trying to do at Liberation is create that diversification, you know, for folks that want to get off of GoToEddie, that want to get off of Google Cloud, that want to get off of Gmail and Constant Contact and MailChimp.
You know, we've built a lot of those everyday tools so that, you know, you can make your own decisions.
You know, if you want the AI spying on your life and making every suggestion for you, great.
But if not, you can come over to us.
That's right. I agree. Yeah, technology is a tool that can be used good or bad, and if people have got a choice, and if it's not centrally planned and centrally controlled, that's where the danger comes in.
As you're pointing out, you know, China's poor construction, the building's falling over.
That's part of the crony capitalism, the central planning and that type of thing.
And it's what we see being pushed towards us in many aspects of our life.
They don't want to have that diversification. It's like, well, if you want to have a gas range, no, you can't have that. You're going to have only what I say.
So we've got our government is out there now trying to design things and push an agenda.
I agree. You know, if you've got solar panels to get off of the grid, hey, that's super.
It's going to be more expensive to do that.
But, of course, certain things like privacy and independence are going to come at a cost, and people can make that decision.
And we should have access to a lot of different types of technology.
It's the governments that want to dictate to us you will have one solution, and that's the only thing that you'll have.
That's the telltale sign.
Being a former politico, being a former federal employee serving at the White House for four years, you know, you see all the time these folks come in and say, Realistic, unrealistic timelines.
And so I think that's really what it is, right?
You know, if you were Gavin Newsom and you're saying we're going to do 100% electric in the state of California, then you need to be realistic.
Okay, by 2400, well, that's our goal, right?
like setting it out long enough so that you have time to build the infrastructure and everything like that.
Same 2030, they can't even finish an interstate in that amount of time, let alone an overhaul of their entire electrical grid.
So you know, it's the initiative is doomed before it even gets launched.
That's the good news.
The bad news is there's going to be an awful lot of wealth transferred to his pals, which might be the actual goal and all that stuff anyway.
So what can the average American do to protect themselves against this kind of surveillance?
You got some tools that you have there at Liberation?
We've got a lot of great tools.
We've got an option if you want to move your website, if you want to get an email with us, if you want to get off of Microsoft Teams or Google Workplace, store your video files, replace Zoom.
We've got a lot of great tools there.
We've got an alternative. To MailChimp and Constant Contact, to GoDaddy and Wix website builder.
We've really focused on what does the everyday man need.
And we're zero-knowledge, so we do not mind, monitor, or monetize anyone's information.
But it's not just about...
What we're doing at Liberations, you know, go look at Freedom Chamber of Commerce, go look at Public Square, go look at Red Balloon.
You know, there are all these different ways that you can pick an alternative in your day to day life.
And that's just good market competition.
You know, almost being four years in, Since this movement really started, there are a lot of products and services out there now that are ideologically aligned with, you know, the more conservative values.
And, you know, they're better, or they're, I would oftentimes say, equal or sometimes even better than what we see coming out of Silicon Valley.
And so if this matters to you, instead of, you know, sitting there being upset about About, you know, the way that this nation is going and Google spying on you and all of that.
Take five minutes and sign up for an alternative, right?
Start taking action and control of your life.
Start taking the reins back and don't let technology companies and the government make those decisions for you.
But if you're happy with it, keep doing what you're doing.
That is your own prerogative and decision.
If you like being controlled and manipulated, that's fine.
But we want to stand here as an alternative that will protect your ideology and your values.
Yeah, it's usually coming from their angle.
It's not that we're dissatisfied.
They just don't like me.
They shut me down. I'm really happy that you're putting this type of thing out there.
I think it's very important. I think it's going to increasingly be spreading out to all kinds of people, even people that don't have a program that they do on a regular basis.
Years ago, we had George Gilder, and he wrote a book, Life After Google.
And he said, you know, I think this whole model of Google, and he called the people in Silicon Valley, he called them neo-Marxist.
And he said, you know, I think their whole business model is flawed.
And he said, I think that there's going to be a marketplace for people who don't add privacy on as an afterthought.
They don't put it on as a bag on the side.
It is fundamental to the way the product is designed.
Is that kind of your approach to what you're doing?
Exactly. And, you know, what we're really trying to do is just restore common sense into the marketplace, right?
Should we, as a provider, be spying and reselling your information without your real consent, right?
Yeah, we all accept the terms and conditions, but no one actually realizes what rights we're giving up there.
You don't read those things and then they change them and you're in the middle of doing something and you've got to check the box and you don't read them.
By the time you would finish it, they would change it all over again, those 100, 200-page documents.
And I think that it's right.
We're just serving that alternative because they are so big that they can be toppled without much effort.
You take Google, they're making over $150 billion annually off of data monetization.
If the U.S. government comes in and says, hey, Yeah, yeah.
It's a very dangerous thing that these people are putting together.
The people that are pushing artificial intelligence, they're also pushing universal basic income.
They see that as integral to their success, as they see the necessity for having their own nuclear power plant to run their GPUs and stuff like that.
And this is something that I've seen.
I remember when Bloomberg was running for office, and I talked about this yesterday, so I won't go into detail on it, but he was talking about how, yeah, we have to have universal basic income.
That's when he trashed the farmers and stuff.
But he was talking about the agrarian versus the industrial revolution, and he said, now the smart ones of us are trying to take everybody's jobs.
And that's exactly what Sam Altman is saying.
And you've got in the UK, you've got Jeffrey, was it Jeffrey Hinton, I think?
They called him the godfather of AI, but I had not seen his name before.
But he was there doing the same thing in the UK that Sam Altman is doing here, saying we've got to hook universal basic income in here because we were going to be intruding into so many different spaces that this is the way that we keep society from turning on us.
What do you think about that aspect of it?
Well, I think that it goes back to the fact that it is another tool and mechanism of control.
It's plain and simple.
If we allow for them to continue to take more and more and reduce the diversification in a space or in a market, that's where things get really hairy.
The next step, in my assumption, would be they just put AI in control of this entire government, right?
And I'm sure the Democrats would love that because then they wouldn't have to listen to Joe Biden stumble through his speeches anymore.
But, you know, that is kind of the trajectory that they're trying to take us down, where, you know, would I be surprised in the next three to five years to hear Democrats calling for AI to run many aspects of the government?
No. I wouldn't be surprised if they do it before this election cycle is over.
And I think that's one thing we have to really be concerned about.
If they say, well, we can have objectivism, we can have an objective judge and a jury, so we just make the AI the judge and the jury.
That's why people need to understand the bias and how easily it can be built into the artificial intelligence, I think.
Right, because with the AI, the general information models that we have today, they're just large kind of guidelines.
A lot of data and then the bias that was built into it by the people that founded and constructed these models.
Those are biases.
The next step is it becomes a sentient, self-aware instance, and then we're in Terminator land.
So you really have to wonder how far are we willing to go?
How much of the genie are we allowing out of the bottle before we start saying...
Okay, let's take some time, reassess this, right?
You know, they want to implement AI so it can replace the workforce.
I heard of one company who's massively integrating AI, and they're reducing their workforce by about 20% annually.
So in five years, they're going to be down to an absolute skeleton crew.
And then, yeah, that universal basic income becomes a requirement because it's now welfare.
Because no one is employed.
Because AI has been integrated strictly for profits into every single business.
And many of the entry-level and mid-level jobs have been just completely replaced.
It is a massive wealth transfer.
And in order for them to do that, they have to make us dependent on them.
And so you're right.
It is welfare. And that's the problem with all kinds of welfare.
It always is masked.
As if it were compassion.
But it's always ultimately about dependency and creating that, making people helpless and dependent on the government, and you lose your skills to be able to feed yourself.
It's kind of feeding people by hand the same way that you would tame a wild animal.
Yeah, and you think about universal basic income, and I would question your listeners to really explain how does it really differ from the ideology of Lenin and Stalin's communism, where everyone is equal, everyone is taken care of, everyone gets money and the profits and rewards of the economy.
And so from that concept...
How is it really different?
And then remind me again, you know, the USSR fell because it ran out of money, because the oligarchs took everything, consolidated, created a population that could barely afford to feed themselves.
Yeah, I agree. And yeah, it has failed time and time again.
You know, slapping lipstick on a pig does not make it a new concept.
It's just, you know, the same pieces of history repeating themselves over and over again just under a new name.
I agree. Yeah, that was really actually the reason why George Gilder called them the neo-Marxists.
He said Karl Marx believed with the Industrial Revolution that they had infinite material capacity.
They could manufacture anything that they wanted to.
So the only thing that was left was how do we distribute this, right?
That's why you have the redistribution wealth at the center of it all.
And he said, and that's the conceit of these people in Silicon Valley.
They believe that they have unlimited material resources, that they can manufacture anything, and all they have to do is figure out how to reallocate that.
But their goal is in order to pacify us so they can continue on with their game.
And that's the thing that is really different about it that we hadn't seen in America before.
You know, Henry Ford, with all of his pluses and his minuses, one of the things he said was, I want to make a car that my people working in the factory can afford to buy.
Well, they don't want to have people around.
They're not interested in selling cars to their robots.
You know, they just want to get us out of the way, and they will do whatever they can to do that.
And it's interesting because I would ask the tens of thousands of employees that have been laid off by Google, by Tesla, by Amazon, by all these other Silicon Valleys, how do you really feel about that?
How's that working out for you?
Because now they are beginning to consume their own.
And so I think that, to your point, the system will fall because it has lost core principles and morals.
And now they are just trying to constantly figure out how they make a greater profit year over year instead of how do you create a great product, a great company that is here to serve your customers and become sustainable, right? And being able to take care of your employees and provide them the lifestyles and the American dream.
So, you know, I think that it is a disconnection from the American dream, you know, the principles of the founding fathers and God-given liberties.
And, you know, I think that at the end of the day, just as history has shown us, those systems will always topple.
Yes, yes. And they're anti-human.
They're anti-freedom. They're anti-human.
And I believe that they will fail as people wake up.
Our job is to wake them up the sooner the better.
Absolutely. So we can do the least amount of damage.
Again, your company is Liberation Tech.
Is that correct? T-E-K? Yeah, so it's Liberation.
Our website is LiberationTech.com.
Great, great. Yeah, we'll be checking that out because we've been heavily censored here and getting kind of tired of it.
I've been tired of it forever. The last six years has been going on.
You're not alone. Yeah, so it's wonderful that people are going to use tools to get around these tools of censorship and control.
I'm so excited to see what you've got there.
Thank you so much, Andrew. Andrew Riddaw, is that the way you say it?
Okay, great. Andrew Riddaw and the company is informationtech.com.
LiberationTech. I'm sorry. LiberationTech.com.
LiberationTech.com.
Thank you so much for joining us.
Appreciate it. Thanks, Travis.
Thank you. Have a good day. All right.
Let's talk a little bit about, in just a moment that we've got here, we have the BRICS group has come up with something that is going to be their new currency.
They call it the unit.
Now, doesn't that sound generically threatening, dystopian?
The unit offers an apolitical form of money that is not influenced by any political agenda.
The unit can be used as a currency for payments via any open payment clearing system.
The unit can freely be bought, sold, and used.
Currency is worldwide. The unit operates on a decentralized network.
Well, all that is great, and that's a response to Biden politicizing the money, the swift situation trying to politicize a transfer currency.
I understand that. But, you know, all of those different things can apply to gold, can't they?
The gold or silver. Instead of the unit, you could have an apolitical form of money, gold.
That is not influenced by political agendas, that can be used as currency for payments.
You have to, and it has, in addition to all this stuff, it is completely, not only decentralized, but it is completely private.
And I think we all need to be thinking about how we get outside of the system, including the BRICS unit.
And that's one of the reasons why I think when you look at preparing for the future, Understand that it's not just inflation, but it is also making sure that you've got skills, that you can grow your food, that you've got access to water, that you've got a community.
And then for financial privacy and freedom, gold and silver.
If you go to davidknight.gold, that'll take you to Tony Arderman, Wise Wolf Gold, and he can get gold or silver for you, small or large quantities.
you can gradually accumulate it as a savings program with Wolfpack and he's got a lot of different levels that you can get into with that. So again gold and silver one of the best ways that you can prepare for independence and freedom and you can get there with DavidKnight.Gold and let Tony know that you came through us. On Rock Fan, Michelle Obama and thank you for the tip.
It's an epic show for a legendary chat.
Well, thank you. I really do like what Andrew is doing.
I wish him luck, and I hope that it's successful because we really do need this, and I think it's important to fight technology with technology, and not just necessarily opt out.
There's places where you can opt out, but there's places where we need to fight him directly, and that's what he's doing.
Thank you for joining us. 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?
